the body over which he was called to preside.
Eleven other votes in the caucus were divided
between Dr.. ChAisty, of baltimore city, who was
the nominee of both parties at the election, and
Mr. Constable, Of Cecil, who has boon regard
ed - the exponent of that wing Of the party
which adheres 10 tho conviction that "Reform
within the Party :" is possible. Now Mr.. Con-
stable received but seven Of these votes, and
DR.. Chaisty only four, thereby showing that the
Ring has set its face against reform In any d.
rsotiou. II makes no concessions. That Mr..
Constable should receive such small number
OF votes was no doubt . surprise to his friends
at home, who protested to hope that the pow
or Of the Ring was destroyed in the election. and
that its selashness and direction Of Affairs would
no longer be exerted. 1t Is noteworthy fact,
however, that ever since the election it, pres.
snce has been visible in every party movement,
and instead Of being scotched it has maintained
struggle for supremacy which was terminated
by: signal victory in the legislative caucus.
With Daniel Fields, Of Caroline all adherent Of
the Ring and one Of their trusted advisers on
the Eastern Shore, in the Presidential chair Of
the 1snate, the issues before the Legislature
can only be such Is will arise between the Ring
and the Reformers, and all who desire to coop.
crate in the passage Of reformatory measures

Brutal Outrage.

Mr.. Trenton Samuels, Justice of
the Peace of the First Ward, in the
upper portion Of this parish, yesterday
informed us Of an act of brutality
which had lately been committed in
that section that was no less mystic
rious than fiendish. On Saturday
night about IL o'clock, DIR. j. Il. X.
Harrison, a planter in that section was
awakened by one Of the negroes on
his place who informed him that he
had heard the report of Some guns,
apparently at cabin about five hun
dred yards from the dwelling. The
Doctor got up and went into the yard,
but bearing nothing further returned
to bed. The next morning one Of the
negroes on the place went to the cabin
to awaken two boys who were occupy
ing il, and found them both dead.
One was about twenty and the other
about fourteen years of age No one
occupied the cabin, with them. DR..
Harrison Immediately proceeded to
the spot, aud upon examination was
satisfied that the oldest boy was shot
while sitting by the fire place, by
some party who had put the gun
through a crack Of the cabin. This
was evident, because the boy on which
the muzzle Of the gun rested was
powder burned. Tho boy was shot
through the head and jaw, and proba-
bly, killed instantly. 1t appeared that
the younger boy had become alarmed
and got under the bed, as he was
found there. shot in terrible manner,
the muzzle Of the gun having been
placed SO near him that his clothes
were set on. FIRE, and the body badly
burned.
The jury of'inquost was empanneled
and the verdict was in accordance
with the above facts. 1t is tEinly
settled country. but ten or twelve of
the white neighbours were present, all
%: whom We're Mortified at the occur
renee.
There seems to be no clue to the
perpetrators. The boys are repre-
sen,ed to have been quiet and well
behaved, and, we believe, had been
on DIR. Harrison's plantation ever since
their freedom.
The only plausible theory is that
it might possibly have been case of
jealousy. as there is no evidence that
any white man committed the brutal
act. And yet, the age of one of the
boys, at least. would 60 to weaken
that theory. In fact, it is mystery
to the people Of that section, and there
is determination on the part Of the
citizens to endeavor to trace out the
guilty party. The weapon used was
q shot gun-a double barrel. it is safe
to infer-which was charged with
buck shOt.-Shrerepo1 Times.

Troops in the South.

The Indians are Strengthening tho
miners in Dakota, and now the Wash
ington dispatches represent that the
President, having been asked for
troops TO protect some of the frontier
settlements, has responded that there
are no soldiers available for the pur-
pose, "as they are now al! on the
march" in the columns moving
against the hostile Sioux. But the
truth is that of the whole army forco
ut %, 600 msn not more than q fifth
are engaged in the Sioux campaign.
Four-fiths Uf the remainder are no:
engaged in airy service Of honor OF:
profit to TIE country, and if they can
not be used for the defense of the peo-
pie where defense is needed, the sup
plies that keep them ia the employ,
ment Of the government, where they
are neither useful nor ornamental,
ought to be percmptorily stopped.
These troops now needed on the
plains are doubtless held in hand
throughout the Southera States to
control the November election. Let

The Literary Class.

Why should the literary class, of
all the gifted men and women of the
world, alone hold its gifts in service
Of itself? Why should it refuse to
come down into the service of life ?
Thee is an audience waiting for every
literary man and woman who will
speak to it, Why should the world
be blamed for not ovcrhcaring what
literary men and women say to
each other? The talk is not meant
for them. 1t has nothing in it for
them and there is feeling among.
lhem-not thoroughly wc!i-dciincd,,
perhaps, but real, that they are de-
frauded. Al this feeling of contemp,
for the non-llcrary world on one side,
and this jealousy of the literary class
on the other, will not exist for mo-
ment after the relations between them
are practically recognized. Whcn'
the world is served, it will regard ill.,
servant, a. lis bcncfactor, and tho

From the London Era /


The other day a gang of laborcrs
were mll,ycd stacking blocks OF
stone on u permanent way of the
Great Western Railroad, between
kenysham and Bristol. In fact, tho
operation of stonc-stackin9 was carried
on within few yards of the Brisling-
ton Tunnel. 1t was at the time of
day when the most wonderful express
train in the world, called the FLYING
Dutchman," was expected, and, by
some unlucky accident, large block
of stone rolled down the embarkment
and lodged on the railway line. AT
this instant the roar of the Flying
Dutchman was heard in the tunnel
There was not moment TO be lost,
so swiftly down the bank sped one Of
the brave navvies to remove the stone
and save hundreds Of innocent lives,
or perish in the attempt. He HAD
wife and family at home, but he never
thought of them. His life was in his
hands, but he never thought of that.
Down the, steep embarkment sped, the
brave fellow ,nervcd with the combined
strength IF Sisyphus and Atlas to
nave the stone and save his fellow
creatures. 0n sped tie. Flying
Dutchman" "Quick. on your life,
JIM" shouted the companion on the
bank. Alas it was just too late
the stone was rolled out of the way,
but the hero Was cut to pieces BY the
fangs Of the marderous train
