In the Maryland House of Representa-
tives on Thursday of last week, the Commit
tee of Ways and Means reported against the
payment of damages for property destroyed
during the railroad riots last summer. The
committee stated that, as general rule,
there was no dereliction on the part of the
State, it being an occasion where the laws
could not be enforced in due time to prevent
destruction of the property for which in
demnity is demanded. The report was
adopted by the House.

with % tons of brass, and the fires started.
In little over an hour the mass was melted
by terrible fire. From the tall chimney
hot flames shot into the air and from the
upper doors of the furnace green, blue, and
red fires burst out With an awful force,
scorching everything near by ard curling
into hundreds of fantastic shapes with
every varying hue. Kettles that will hold
$4,000 pounds were swung on cranes of
tremendous power under the furnace, and the
molten brass was drawn into them. As the
fiery stream rolled into them, miniature
picture was afforded Of those vehement CON
vulsions of nature which have buried be-
meath liquid lava ocean cities and the in
habitants thereof. 0bedent to their task,
the cranes swung the kettles to the centre of
the foundry, where the great mould was
built, and, being carried TO q sufficient
height, the liquid was poured into it stimuli
taneousy from two sides, and without acci-
dent of any kind the cast was successfully
made. This propeller is the largest in the
country, being some IS feet in diameter and
weighing 10000 pounds. 1t will remain in
the mould until Monday, and then be taken
out, to receive in the bureau of construction
its finish and appliances. d.

The iron trade is generally reported in
this country to be in better condition than
at this time last year, whilst in England its
condition appears to be worse. There is not
30 much an improvement in prices for iron
in this country as an improvement in de-
mand, necessitating better supply and
keeping the iron mills in better work. Thus
at this time last year about two-thirds of the
furnaces in Pennsylvania were idle, whilst
now only one-third are idle and two-thirds
in blast. As at least one million people are
dependent on the iron industry for liveli-
hood, this increase of work is great benefit.
In New England there is reported a some
what better inquiry for bar iron and ma
chinery, with prices firmly held and some
increase of orders, but there is nothing doing
in that locality in railroad iron.

CALL FOR MEETING OF THE STATE Con-
YENTIoN.

CALL FOR MEETING OF THE STATE Con-
vENTIoN.
Rooms Of Executive Committee, National
Farty Of Pennsylvania, Pottsriiie, April 2,
lS7S.-Under authority derived from the
State Executive Committee, hereby fix up
on IL o'clock in the forenoon of Wednesday,
the 9Th day of May, in the city of Philadel-
phia (the hall to be hereafter designated), as
the time and place of holding State con-
vention of the National party Of Pennsyl-
vania. At such convention candidates for
Governor and Lieutenant Governor of Penn
sylvania, Judge of the Supreme Court, and
Secretary of Internal Affairs, will be placed
in nomination, and such other business
transacted as may, in the judgment of the
convention, be deemed necessary and advis-
able. The number of delegates entitled to
seats in the convention will correspond to
the number of Senators and members of the
House of Representatives in the General
Assembly Of Pennsylvania. The number OF
delegates from each county should cores
pond with the Legislative representation.
Where delegates are appointed by County
Executive Committees the credentials OF
such delegates should be signed by the
Chairman and Secretary Of such committee.
When delegates are selected by convention
the credentials should be signed by the
President and Secretary Of the convention.
The names and post office address of the
delegates already selected should be forward
ed TO the State Executive Committee. In
such counties as have not yet selected dele
gates immediate arrangements should be
made TO do so. 1t is hoped and earnestly
requested that there should be a full repre-
sentation from all parts Of the State. Upon
the wise and judicious action of the cUnven-
tion the future welfare Of the party may de-
pend.
The National party is gaining large ac-
cessions TO its ranks throughout the State
Advice as to future policy is freely rendered
by both Democratic and Republican polite
ians. As it is not presumable that such
politicians are sincerely anxious for the wei.
fare OF the National party, such advice
should be received for what it is worth-nC
more. The National party came into ex,
istence through a belief that no relief could
be found in either of the old parties for ex.
isting evils. The causes that induced the
formation Of the party still exist. No sac.
rifiee of either principle or party organiza,
tion should be considered, even ii the temp.
tatiou Of assured success TO nominees is OF.
tered. Build no Chinese wall around the
party, throw wide open the doors to admit
nccessions to its members, but strictly main.
tain its independence of acton.
Success of the nominees can be attained
by wise selection of candidates upon
conservative platform, supplemented by
earnest, vigorous work. That work mus
be done by the National party ITSELF it can
not expect, it has no rightto expect aid from
It's enemies.
Delegates should come prepared to hell
the National party and none other. 600

State of Tennessee, and the proceedings OF
the large meeting held in pursuance OF sslo
call Also, these proceedings as an otter
of the numerous holders of very large
amount of Tenn essee's debt represented Dy
the Committee to accept sixty (6U per cent

forty (40) per cent. of it forever to the peo-
pie of Tennessee, in accordance WITH Tue
award which resulted from conference
between a Commission sent to New YORK

House;
Resolved. That the Committee having
received assurances from tennessee tnat
many Tennesseeans to whom compromise
or partial payment of their State debt Is
very obnoxious would prefer to pay 1t In
full, at q reduced rate OF Interest, rs D0'n
more in harmony with modern usage, de-
cidedIy better for the interest OF the people
of Tennessee themselves in the end and
likely to be far more acceptable to Execu-

of thirty, but to be redeemable at any time
after six months notice and to be renewable
at the pleasure of the State.

WERE THEY ISSUED IN AID OF
THE REBELLION?

1t is the duty Of public journals
ist, when the people are about to
suffer a great wrong, to do whatever
he can legitimately to avert such a
wrong. We are not aware of any
other motive prompting US in our
efforts to show the real character of
what is known as the Torbett issue
of the Bank of Tennessee. 1t is no
hobby on our part, upon which We
desire to ride into q fictitious public
favor. We have no interest in the
matter, not common to all the peo>
pie of Tennessee, regardless of their
political afiliation. We have ad-
mittcd, and DO still admit, that it
may be very difficult, and perhaps
impossible, to make satisfactory
proof, by which the courts of the
country may be governed, as to the
real character of these issues. But
any man who is at all acquainted
with the history Of the times in this
State in 1872, and the circum-
stances under which these "new is
sue" notes were put in cirr
culatson must come to the conclu-
sion that they were issued
in aid of the rebellion, and are con-
sequently void under the provisions
Of the Fourteenth Amendment to the
Constitution of the United States.
ANY fair-minded man who will take
the trouble to investigate this ques-
ton, will be strengthened in his con-
yictions on this point. Many of
the Democratic papers in the State
are taking this same view, in sub
stance, and it is morally certain that
the Legislature will pass no laws
directing Tax Collectors to take the
"new issue notes without further
litigation, in which all proper pleas
shall be made, and all the evidence
possible to be had is presented.

There is considerable excitement in Mon
mouth county over strange case of body
stealing. Mr.. John Headden, who married
Miss Hendrickson, of Deal, having lost his
wife, buried her in the family lot in Fair
view Cemetery and after time married
again. Upon this marriage, which recently
took place, the family of his first wife begged
Mr.. Headden to allow them to remove the
remains of their relative to their own burial
ground in the village of Shrewsbury. This
Mr. Headden refused to do, whereupon two
of the relatives, William Hendrickson and
Henry F. Spaulding, went to the cemetery,
and procured the assistance of the sexton,
to whom they said it was call right" dug
up the body of Mrs. Headden and took it
to Shrewsbury. The matter will prob ably
go into tie courts.
