lieved they ad.made mistake. He
hoped they would Withdraw their
bill and let the good work go on in
peace and harmony, for the credit OF
Canon City and the benefit of the
whole community. Mr.. Fowler's re-
marks made q deep impression on the
meeting.
DR.. Craven being called for, said
he was not public speaker. but
could say few words in favor oi
education. Would be pleased to see
college started, and was in favor OF
giving it every facility necessary to
its success.
Gen. Freeman called Dir. Craven to
the chair, and took the floor. He
made long address in support Of
the resolution. Like Henry Clay he
would rather be right than be presi-
dent. He read the law on the sub
ject, TO show that the county commits
sioners had the Legal power to lease
the rooms. He ridfculed the petit
tioncrs for the injunction and their
occupations. He said Mr.. Macon was
the greatest whittier in the state and
would do more damage to the court
house than all the pupils. q
Mr.. Macon replied, and said the
proper place for Gen. Freeman to read
his law was before the judge. He
mated that both Gen. Freeman and
one of the petitioners, at his place of
sighting reference to his occupation.
tees observed the spirit of the lease
in good faith, the arrangement could
be carried without detriment to the
public interests.
Mr.. Duebcr moved to lay Col. Saw
yer's resolution on the table. No
one seconded it. sst-
Col. Sawyer's resolution was then
put and carried almost unanimously.
The following resolutions were
adopted: ~ r st
ResolUed, That the report of D. G.
Peabody, vice-President of the Board
of Trustees. of the proceedings of said
board in relation to the purchase of a
lot for the college, the causes of the
delay in getting good title to the
same, and the lease OF the rooms in
the court house when not in use, nor
needed for county. purposes or the
courts, be received and cordially ap-
proved by this meeting.
ResolVed. That the lease of the use
of the said court rooms for said pur-
pose, by the board of county commits
sioners was fully and clearly author
lied by the law controlling their act
ion in the premises, and that we
heartily approve their act in securing
$500 for the county treasury, with
no possible evil result to the public.
ReSolUed, That the statements of
the injunction bill, and on which the
injunction in the case was granted,
are not true in law nor in fact, and
that said injunction bill should be
Withdrawn and wholly discontinued.

The Dead and His Legacy.

II is over. The mortal frame has
found its kindred clod. The SHOWS of
winter and the showers of summer win
melt and fall upon his grave, but the
turf their moisture shall freshen cannot
be greener than the memory of him who
lies beneath it. In the annals of the
race there is told no grander' story OF
grief. homage and pity than is afforded
by the tributes heaped upon him, who
was yesterday consigned to the tomb,
amid the lamentations of his people and
the regrets of the world.
In the widest fancies of the humble
boy there dawned not the faintest con-
ception of such distinction, and it may
be, could he have voiced his wishes
ere his spirit quit its prison,
that he would have forbade the splendor
that he might have thought would at
tend his burial. But when sovereigns,
recognizing his worth, became men and
women in the tender of their adj
miration of the man and pity for
his loved ones, his people might
well be royal in the homage they tender
ed his clay. Great was the man thatcom-
manded such honors, but greater are the
people whose benefcent institutions made
his career possible. and held out to his
indomitable spirit the fruition of its
hopes. He is dead, but his work is I'M
finished. The task of its completion is
his legacy. Its details are buried with
him, but its entirety comprehended a
united people, bent on common ends and
fired with common hopes. The work
was his; its execution is ours.

Luminous PaInt-An Important Dis
nnvarY

The luminous paint discovered by Dir.
Balmain, an English chemist, is already
coming into practical use. The pecu-
liarity of this paint is that it absorbs
light in the day time and emits, like
PHOSPHORUS, a pale but easily distin-
guished light after dark. The uses to
which it may be put are much more nu-
merous than persons suppose. As the
light is not affected by fire-damp, it may
be employed to explore mines in which
that deleterious agent is in excess, or to
recover bodies after an explosion from
fire damp has occurred. 1t may be used
in all other places where it would be
dangerous to carry light at night, such
as cellars where there is leakage of gas +;
where petroleum or gunpowder is stored;
in the lamp and spirits room Of ships,
and, in short, wherever danger from an
ordinary light is apprehended. Its use
has not as yet been extensive in this
country, but it has been applied, with
great success, to the indicators of the
passenger steamers Bristol and Provi-
dence, now plying on the New York riv-
ers, while for many marine purposes. as
for pinnacle lights, for instance, it is be-
lieved that it will prove of equal service.
If it should be found possible, ultimate
ly, to so improve the light as that miners
will be able to work by it. its value in
the saving of life would be incalculable.

An exchange says that when corn
could be had at Buffalo or Peoria for
thirty or thirty five cents bushel there
was an enormous profit in converting it
into glucose for the adulteration of
sugar; but since the price has advanced
to sixty.fve cents there is no longer a
profit in putting it to such use. Sugar
can now be purchased cheaper than
glucose can be manufactured. And as
a consequence glucose works every
where are shutting down or curtailing
their production. And this demand for
millions of bushels of corn has dropped
off and will soon cease, unless the price
of corn declines. Corn is now high for
alcohol and expectation, and this de-
mand for corn has also nearly ceased.

Three star route men have been inter-
viewed, and the substance of their state
ments is that the government dares not
go ahead with the prosecutions, that the
government procured the adjournment
of the grand jury in order to gain time
for arranging an understanding with the
accused parties, and that even should
the prosecutors procure an indictment,
they cannot secure a conviction. 1t is
to be feared that all three points are
well founded. There is also conjec-
ture, which arises from the factional
friendship between President Arthur
and the heads Of the star route rings,
that the prosecution will either be aban-
doned soon or quietly allowed to fizzle
out 1t is, doubtless, this conjecture
which moves the New York Times, the
fiercest enemy Of the star route men, to
say: "It would be political suicide for
the new administration to fail to take up
the work at the point where it stands to.
day; it would be political ruin for the
Republican party to tolerate or defend
any wavering IN such task.

Guiteau's Case.

1t is held that Guiteau is amenable to
the laws of New Jersey because the
President died there, and should be
brought to that State and tried for MUIR
der. The President died in Monmouth
county. and, says the Baltimore San, as
sumlng the New Jersey statute to be con-
stitutional, the Court of Oyer and Ter
miner of that county has jurisdiction
over the crime, although the fatal wound
was inflicted in another jurisdiction. The
same act of the Legislature provides that
where the wound is inflicted in New Jer-
sey and the victim dies elsewhere, the
crime can be punished in the jurisdic-
ton where the blow was struck. This
provision of the law was
fully tested in the celebrated
Hunter-Armstrong case, and its validity
was affirmed by the highest courts of
the State. Hunter and Armstrong both
resided in Philadelphia, but the murder
was committed in Camden. Armstrong
was found lying on the sidewalk in an
unconscious condition, but was taken
across the river TO his home in Philadel-
phia before he expired. Hunter was
kidnapped by detectives and carried to
New Jersey without warrant of extra
dihon. Hon. George M. Robson, ex-
Secretary of the Navy, was his counsel,
and at the trial for murder he raised the
point of jurisdiction. which, after an
exhausted argument before the Court of
Errors, was ruled against him, and Hun
ter was executed.

Senator Vest, of Missouri, has written
a letter to be read at the meeting of ex-
Confederates at MOberlY, in that State.
September %, in which he congratulated
the Missouri COnfederates for the patri-
otism they have exhibited in war and in
peace. This devotion to duty he hopes
to see continued He says he thought
the tears and sorrow of the South at the
shooting of Garfield would remove the
malice and suspicion entertained by the
North, and IS disappointed that such has
not been the case. To illustrate, he
quotes from Gen. Grants recent utter
ances that pensions must be paid to none
but Union soldiers, and asks what
''drug" can have so changed the speaker
since his words at Cairo and Blooming
ton, Ill, when he paid tribute to the
present devotion to their country Of
those who wore the gray. The language
of Grant, says Senator Vest, is an 1nsin-
uation of the basest sort, for ex-Confed-
crates have neither asked nor thought of
pension.

a machine has been invented in Bos-
ton for generating heat without fire. 1t
is simply an iron cylinder about foot
long and foot in diameter. The bot
tom of the cylinder is a hardened plate
upon which another plate of the same
diameter turns, the pressure being regu-
lated by a screw, according to the power
that is to be applied and the amount of
heat desired. All of the space not taken
up BY the wheel and shaft is fill
ed with water. As soon as the
wheel is set in motion the water
is brought up to a high tempera-
ture and the cylinder becomes a stove,
which radiates heat from the whole of
its exterior surface. OF course this ma
chine can only be used in buildings
where there is steam power that can be
awaited of to run the friction wheel.
There is entire security against accidents
by fire, which is a strong point in favor
of the friction heater.

Jute grows wild in south and east
Florida, and the Jacksonville Union
states that the Okeechobee Land Com
pany proposes to make some experiments
in its cultivation next season. The de-
mand for jute bagging is very large both
in the North and South, the main supply
being now obtained from India. During
the year ended January 1, 1881, there
were imported thence Sc, 606 bales of jute,
worth each about $50. As the freight
charge per bale from India is about $12
per ton, and the government places
heavy duty upon it when imported, it
would seem that there should certainly
be good profit to the grower of jute in
Florida and also in Louisiana, where its
cultivation was tried few years ago
with success.
