A WELL-DEsERyED COMPLIMENTS From
the Alexandria Gazette, 15th.1-The south
ern people have not muchto be thankful
for in the shape of Federal, judges. but
there is an exception in the case OF Judge
Hughes. OF Virginia, who has good. sound
sense to- back his lknoWle 1Se OF law.
a sensible man may not be good
Judge, but. good Judge must be a
sensible man, and7:.by such a judge,
provided he be horest-and nobody ques-
tions Judge Hughes's honesty-justice is
sure TO be dispensed. The! oftener Judge
Hughes comes before the public by a de-
cision that is Of general interest the more
evident become his merits as a.iudge. and
the more praise he receives from those
whose praise is worth anything. In the
miscegenation case at Richmond, yesterday,
he decided that United States courts have
no Jurisdiction over questions of marriage.
What favorable contrast. he affords to
Judge Rives, whose vagaries, il sustained,
would give United States courts iurisdic'
ton in all cases, aud do away with the he.
cessity Of State courts. 'h9.&:. 49,.

SUCCESSFUL. APPLICATION OF A PRINCIPLE
ID n DISCOVERED A CENTURY AGO.
Two inventors, after months OF unremit.
ted labor inta-litEie machine-shop In SDeaa3
ware county, were rewarded q few weeks
ago by the, successful constructs On af "a
sIeanl-engine that does away with the cum
bersome boiler, andeonyerts water, drop by
DROP, instantaneously into steam. The
principle. is not a new one, Tor patents were
granted on it in England as far back as
1876, and since then many experiments
have been tried. 1t was not, However,
until q few weeks ago that any practical
results were obtained. The successful
engine was constructed at the workshop OF
M.ssrs. Everding & jerks, at Sharon Hill,
and a double patent was taken out under tEe
name of -. Everding's Instantaneous Steam
Generator" The furnace occupies about
one fifth OF the space OF the ordinary
furnaces aud boiler. The. steam produced
is dry, OF much higher temperature. apd
therefore OF greater expansive force than
that manufactured by eYapoTated steam.
TIE reduction in full is about one half, and
lastly, explosion is impossible. The CRATE
OF the furnace bow in operation is thirty
six inches square. Above the fire and
thirteen inches from the CRATE the genera
ting vessels are arranged, each one being
furnished with an internal waters upply
pipe, the outlets OF which are, provided
with iniection.nozzleS made OF nickel, to
withstand the intense heat. : The bore OF
the nozzle bears such ratio to the area OF
the heated surface which it tsupplies as to
admit water only in such quantity as Will
be Immediately vaporizcd by contact with
the heated walls OF the chamber. The
steam thus created supplies direct-acting,
irver:ed.cyiinder engine. The apparatus
has been IN operation several weeks, but
was exhibited for the first time yesterday.
The engine is thirty-horse power, and the
pressure Of steam carried yesterday was
400 pounds, with q speed OF l20 revolutions
per minute Of the four-foot fy-wheel. The
engine was consuming only tbirty-elgbt
pounds Of coal per hour, with an evaporation
OF little less than twenty-five gallons
of water. The engine was then running
the machinery Of an adjoining workshop ut
full speed, and the only perceptible. df-
ference between the concomitants Of the
ordinary engine and the new one was the
conspicuous absence Of the long engine
boiler and the inactivity OF the fireman
with his coal-shevel. The apparatus pre-
cludes@ all possibility Of an explosion,
because at no time Is there any considera-
BILE quantity OF water In the generator.
After diligent work and, many trials of the
new engine under different circumstances,
the contingencies that could not be fore
seen-as, for instance, the stopping up
OF the water-supply pipes with vegetable
matter-bave all been overcome, and the
success OF the invention seems to be perfect.

THE KINNEY CAsE--VIRTUE IN DUREss.-
The affidavit Of Mary Hall NV hlte), claiming
to be the wife Of Edmund Kinney fcolored).
was taken. yesterday to an application to
the United States District Court for writ
OF ha6eGS corpus. The Kinney case was
disposed Of by Judge Hughes, sitting on the
United States Circuit Court bench, and it is
not absolutely certain that it can now be
carried to the United States Supreme Court.
In the case OF Mary Hall 1t is expected that
the, District Court (Judge Hughes) will at
once overrule the application, and that
thercupon the appellate Jurisdiction Of the
United States Circuit Court (the Chief JUS
tice and Judge Bond-onet or both) may be
invoked, and thus the question have a
chance of being finally heard blythe United
States Supreme Court. The petition OF
Mary Hall, or Mary Kinney, was filed i'll
the District Court yesterday.

name OF Mr. Michaels, Of Philadelphia, in

the man who few years ago went under
the name OF Davis. and as such leased the
shoe-shops Tor desired toy, and borrowed
money from several Richmond parties and
then decamped. Virtue knows all about
the shoe business, having served a term in
the Maryland penitentiary. Mir. Gates has
