x Burned to Death. - An insane man
laameu John -Reeder was burned to
death on Monday morning of last week,
at the Aims House, near Loysville,
this county. When his attendant fur
nished him with his breakfast, and left
the building in which he was confined,
he was seated by the stove. 1t is sup
posed his clothing took fire, and becom-
ing frightened, he ran into his cell,
closing the door, the straw of which
his bed was composed took fire burn
ing him to crisp. Persons seeing
smoke issuing from the building ran
to his assistance, but he was already
dead. He was admitted to the Aims
House when a young child, never
learned to talk, and was insane from his
birth. He was o man of unusual size
and was about As years of age when he
died. Being so violent most of the
time that he had to be kept confined to
his cell in the mad house, at times he
was allowed to be in the corridor where
the stove was situated. He would wear
no clothing but loose gown, and his
habits were such that loose straw was
all that could be given to him for bed
ding. A sad case indeed.

GENERAL WASHINGTON ordered that Major
John Andre. the spy, should be hung like a
felon. But England took different view of
the subject. His remains repose IN West
minister Abbey, and his monument is of
statuary marble, carved by Van Glider, and
bears the following inscription: Sacred to
the memory of Major John Andre, who,
raised by his merit at an early period of life
to the rank of adjutant general OF the Brit
ish forces in America. and. employed in an
important but hazardous enterprise, fell a
sacrifice to his zeal for his king and coun-

FRIDAY, MARCH Z.

There seems to be a general impression
among senators and members generally that
an extra session will be held, although there
is no official Information to that effect. The
Republicans Of the Senate, who have used
Senator Streight to talk against time, are the
gentlemen who directly responsible for
The waste of much valuable time, and thereby
made an extra session necessary.
An important bill, defining what shall con-
stitute libels, and providing penalties, intro
duced by senator Grubbs, of Morgan county,
has passed both Houses, and becomes a law as
soon the Governor signs 1t. Heretofore,
under the old law, there was no way to reach
one who libeled except through an action for
damages, which proved useless, even If q IA
vOrabie verdict was rendered-f the party
sued was worth nothing. Under this new
law, in addition to a fine not exceeding 81 ,c0J,
there is added still farther penalty of impris-
onunent in the county jail for period not ex-
ceeding one year.
The following Is declared to be libelous by
this bill: Any defamatory printing, writing,
sign, picture, representation or eftigy tending
to expose any one to public hatred or ridicule,
or deprive him of public confidence
or social intercourse, or designed TO
blacken or vilIify the memory of
q deceased person and tending to scandalfze
and provoke his relatives and friends-also the
selling, delivering, reading in the presence Of
others, or otherwise communicating q libel,
directly or indirectly, TO any person or persons
make, compose, dictate, print or write
a libel to be published, or procure 1t published,
or who shalt knowingly aid IN publishing .

many gentlemen eminently qualified, earn
est, patriotic and fully equipped as the law
directs, stand ready to draw their pay and
work for their country. A Washington dis
patch says that ''the pressure for the Senate
Offices has begun in earnest. and is being
prosecuted with unusual vigor, because Of
the short period intervening between now
and March Is. A Democratic senator re-
marked to-day that he had received from his
