cet ding well to closely scrutinize any

between the Chinese commissioners and
the Peking people before they make up
their minds to permit its ratification by
the Senate without vigorous protect.
Certa My those who think that the COM
merciAl advantages which the Burlin-
game treaty gives the United States are
OF very much more account from every

nese cheap labor instead of Irish, or
Swedish, OF German, or any other sort of
cheap labor, shall be prohibited from
exercising their choice in the freest
possible manner, owe it to themselves
and to the true principles Of republican
ism that they demand that the state de-
partment shall not hurry the two treaties
said to have been concluded at Peki,g
befo the Senate, With an urgent de-
mand for their instant ratification before
it affords an opportunity for full, free
and sufficient discussion of their merits

There is no change for the better in

crimes are being committed daily These
crimes, if they DO not bring about the

say there is no increase in the number Of

papers are paying more attention to crime
in Ireland now, thus creating the impress
sion that it is on the increase.

cows Ia u stable'yard, when Peck crept up be-
hind her, seized her by the arms, aud carrying
her behind II hay.ricb, attempted to accom-.
plish his purpose, The screams of the girl
attracted the attention of Rev. Mr.. Amy,
who was IN his yard across tho
road. He hastcnod to the spot and Peck ran
away to tho stable. Au officer was seut for
and Peck was arrested. In the afternoon he
was taken to Poolesville aud locked up in the
Odd Fellows Hall. A crowd gathered about
the hall, and threats of lynchiug were boldly
made. However no attempt to capture the
prisoner was mado at that time, About IL
o'clock at night the crowd apparently dis
persed, and the officer in charge prepared to
remove his prisoner to his own house where
he could guard him over night, lie first took
him into u store on the opposite side Of the

masked, rushed upon the scene from every
direction. The door was burst open the officer
was seized and blindfolded, aud rope,
already noosed, was thrown over tho prisoners
head, He was dragged out into the road, over
a fence and across an open field to n locust troo
in front Of tho Presbyterian church. The
rope was thrown over limb aud the negro
was soon dangling in tho air. The
rope was fastened 10 fence. The
executioners, after waiting some time to
satisfy themselves that tho man was dead
departed for their homes. Some of them be.
fore leaving fired thoir pistols at the hanging
body The body was left hanging nntil nearly
was opened for divine service. Then an oili-
Ger cut it down, An inquest was held, aud
verdict rendered that George Peck came to
his death from straugulation by the hands Of
parties unknown to the jurOls.'
