TIE POPULAR SENTIMENT.

1t is crC dltaOle to the lntehlgence
and the humane Instincts Of the
better class o: newspapers that they
deplore and dencunce tie late muir,
ders of Mormon missionaries IN
Tennessee. With remarkably few
exceptions the II fluential j ,urnals,
whatever Is their estimate OF che
Mormons, speak of the assassina-
tons as cruel and upjusuabie by
any process Of reasoning, and call
upon the State authorities TO vindi
cate the Law, Gnd show their regard
for human rights by making all
reasonable effort to punish the MUIR
derers. However, some few editors
undertake to justify the killing on
the ground that the elders were en-
gagged in preaching false doctrine.
This is a NEST dangerous position to
assume, and one which carried to
its natural outcome would result in
the strong d. stroying the weak, and
the most popular religion coneuming
al others. This Ia what the doc
trine implies, and it is especially
dangerous in republic which is pro-
hibited net only from establishing
religion bat also from interfering
with any religion, whatever msy be
its motives or however offensive its
doctrines and teachings may be.
One correspondent writes that the
elders were guilty OF improper con
duct, and it was this which aroused
the mob to vengeance. This sccusa~
ton may be believed by the ignor-
ant and those whose prejuc ics is so
overpowering that they eagerly
grasp at anything which will stand
as an excuse for violence against the
Mormons: to those who are &C
quainted with the character OF the
men sent out to preach, and the IA
ture of the instructions given them,
the accusation is simply ridiculous.
But suppose it were true and the
elders were actually guilty OF wrong
doing, thst fact could not be pleaded
In justification of murder or of even
outrages upon their persons.
Ii men, whether Mormon or Meth-
odist, are guilty Of crime, laws are
provided for thsir puniEhmentaud
the courts are open for redress to
aggrieved individuals or communi-
ties. The only Offense of which the
elders were guilty wss that of
preaching an unpopular religion,
and that is no crime in a country
where religion lie free by law and
the preaching of it cannot be inter-
d!cted by statute.
The truth Is, the Mormons were
guilty of no offente, against either
the law or good morals, and = bigct
mob, fully aware Of the fact, muir
dered thea. in cold blood; it was
murder in an aggravated sense, and
Tennessee will wear q stain upon
her fame until she wipes it out
by either furnishing the criminals
as her laws directs or makes
reasonably dillgent and earnest eff
fort to do so. Those editors who are
furnishing excuses for the assaEsins
are in sense guilty, and might also
commit murder under as slight
provocstion as the Lewis County
mob found in The mere presence of
the preachers.

A Queer Fish, Pond.

GEL
On top of the Record building, ninety
feet from the ground, is a water-tank
with a capacity of $4,000 gallons. It
was never thought of as source of fish
supply, bat a recent discovery has sug-
gested almost unlimited possibilities in
that direction. On last Friday the en-
gineer had occasion t. clean out the
tank, when he was amazed to find in.
one of his buckets a squirming ell, nine
inches long and of fair proportions. In
a few minutes he found other fish in his
buckets, a catfish four inches long, and
nor eels, until he had a fair collection,
which he carefully preserved. A fishing
pond nearly a hundred feet above the
ground ISIS novel affair, and this singu-
lar ''catch" from the Records roof has
provoked a great deal of curiosity and
speculation. The water is pumped into
the tank from the water main on Chest
nut street, coming into the three-inch
pipe of the Record through an inch con-
Meeting pipe. 1t then passes to the
force pump and is forced 100 feet into
the tank above through a three-inch pipe.
The fish probably came from the
Schuylkill while very young and small,
and found their devious ways to the
tank, where they grew up. What they
fed upon is a mystery, and the proof
reader, who usually spends five hours
evere week in batting his hook for Wis
sahickon catfish, will now look for
mountain trout or the Records roof

CINCINNATI, June 9.-Last night, shortly
before twelve o'clock Nellie Barnet, one Of
The many girls who nightly parade along.
Elm street met VIM. Kinsweiller, a Ger;
nan aged twenty-three years, and took
him up to her room, on the third floor of the
building No. 293 Elm street. Winsweiller,
scted strangely, but talked in a manner
that would tend to contradict his actions.
After entering the woman's room, Wins
weller must have become suddenly in
sane, for he got up n produced an old
razor from his pants pocket and at once
yet about using it on tte woman, in
the right side of whose throat he succeeded
in infiicting an ugly, but not serious, cash.
The woman was at the time in bed,
but, jumping up, she ran to the front
window and screamed for the police, the
blood streaming from the wound in her
neck all the while, Before the officers ar
rived q large pool of the crimson fluid had
dropped to the sidewalk below. While she
was crying for help the maniac, for such
ne evidently was, cut his own throat from
ear to ear, almost severing his mead from
his body and causing death almost Instant
ly. In the pockets of the deceased's CLOTH
ing were found q number of letters,
dated principally from New York, where
the dead man has a brother. Another
was from Julius Mendelsohn, of No. zig
East Seventh street, New York. The dead
man had been lowering in the vicinity of
Eighth and Elm streets for some hours
previous to being AIKEN in by the woman
Barnet. In conversation with him he then
showed signs of insanity. He was a single
man and a watch case maker, employed at
Dueber's Watch Case Company's factory
in Newport, KY. His parents live in New
York City. The corpse presented a fright
full appearance as it lay completely covered
with blood. The bed clothing was also
saturated with the f1uid- The woman Rarnet
had never met the deceased before last
night.

Salvation Army Routed at Cleveland.

CLEVELAND, o., June THE Salvation
Army numbering t~wenty-four men and
women, was arrested last evening for dis
turbing the peace by parading the streets,
singing, shouting, praying and playing mu-
steal instruments. They were kept in Jail
over night, and this morning arranged in
the Police Court. Captain Walker and
three others were tried Jointly and
convicted. Walker being the leader, was
fined s15 and costs, and the others So. The
remaining twenty demanded jury trials,
and were put under bail. In passing sem
enc Judge Hutchins said the Salvation
Army has become a nuisance, and must be
suppressed like any other nuisance. He
would impose a light fine as a warning, but
L arrested again he would infict the full
penalty of the law every time.

Use of making the largest yield ever

Minnesota's Secretary expects a yield of

Attempt at Suicide.

NEW York, June THE following is the
Herald's cable: PARIS, Jun 8, 1854
There was quite a CONSERVATION yesterday
at the Grand Hotel. A young English lady,
in a robe de mutt and disheveled hair, sud-
denly jumped from an upper window into
the courtyard, behind the Directors Of
flee. The window was forty feet above the
pavement of the courtyard, M ten feet
beneath the window is a wide ground-giass
projection. The young lady crashed
through the glass, cutting herself painfully,
but not dangerously, and instead of being
dashed to pieces on the pavement, as
seemed to the spectators to be newt
able, she, by an extraordinary
chance, landed on the neck of one Of
the ex-Khedive's horses that happened
to be standing in the courtyard, and thus
almost miraculously was saved from death.
The young lady is Miss Prettyman, who,
with her parents, Colonel n Mrs. Pretty
man, came to Paris to see the Grand Prix.
Miss Prettyman, q few days ago., was
attacked with symptoms of typhoid fever,
and during an excess of delirium, caused
by the fever, made the fatal leap. Beyond
the shock of the fall she sustained no
serious injury, h-

Family Pnisnned.

SALEM, IND, June 6.-Mr. William
Simpson resides about two miles south of
Salem, near Fredericksburg. Yesterday
afternoon he and two of his sons and a lit
tie daughter were in the field at work. The
father remarked that he hadn't seen any
spikenard-root for ten years. Shortly af-
ter the eldest son, aged about
twenty-five, dug up what he supposed
to be the kind ofroot spoken of, and ate it,
giving a small part to the two children.
The father ate none. The root provedt to be
the poisonous wild parsnip, so virulent
that in q few minutes the young man fell
down insensible. The father sent the little
girl for aid, and on the way she took sick
and vomited, but brought neighbor, never
theless. AT this juncture a team happened
to pass, but before the sick man could be
put into the wagon he was dead, and the
other boy was quite sick. The boy and
the girl are still quite sick. This morning
they were much improved, with consider
able hope of recovery.

ate over Anam.

LONDON, June 7.-Mr. Thomas Burt, who
represents Morpeth in the House of Com
mons, and who is perhaps the only true
exponent of labor in that body, says re-
garding the present great depression in the
shipping industry in the North of England:
''The ship-building trade in the North is
practically at a %stand-still, and there prob
ably never has been a time in its history
when the outlook for an improvement was
as indefinite and uncosnforting as it is at
present. Whole fleets of large steamers are
lying idle in the Tyne, and on the Wear
~ship-building in the old sense has almost
ceased to be an industry. Thousands of
persons are unemployed, and the distress
actual want of food and shelter, I mean
lis fearful in the extreme. The labor or
CARNATIONS, usually strong, as a rule, in
the North, are wholly unable to answer
the calls upon them for relief, those
few members who nave managed to
retain work being unable to meet the
demands which are made upon them. The
distress in Sunderland is particularly
marked. Many hitherto well-to-do families
have had to apply to the authorities for re-
lief. Mr.. Burt, in reply TO a question as to
the causes OF this unusual slackness in
trade, which had become almost national
in its character, said that in the shipping
trade the only apparent cause was over

production probably explained, at least in
a limited way, the want of work. He was
not prepared to go any further than that.
Politico-economic measures for relief, he
thought, were to remote, and while he
hoped for a recovery by the end of the
year, he would not state on what ground
his hope was based.
PARIS, June IA new treaty between
France and Anam is signed. Tint Provin-
ces of Bin Thuan and Than Goa are re-
stored to Anam. A customs system, SINH
lar to that in Cochin China, is ~re-established.
French military occupation of all strategic
points in Anam and Tonquin will be effected
If necessary. A permanent French garri-
son will hold a portion of the citadel of
Hue. Anam accepted the treaty as pro-
posed by France without making and modi-
fcations. By it Anam is placed under
French protectorate. The French Resident
in Cochin-C China will represent Anami in all
her foreign relations, and Ana will form
Q customs union with Cochin China. The
departments of public works, postal and
telegraph service and finance and customs
will form a single branch of the adminis-
~tration, under the direction of French
agents,

not otherwise have been acquired in

somehow or other he did not take it as
such.

"Put your hands over your ears!" she

The Hampton Normal and Agricul-
tural Institute at Hampton, Va, held
its anniversary exercises on Thursday,
May %, and the reports made on this,
its sixteenth year, show a good degree
of prosperity. There have been on its
rolls the past year five hundred negro
and one hundred and twenty Indian
students-the former preparing to go
South to teach their people,
where nearly a thousand already
trained in this Institute have
established themselves and are doing q
great work in the colored common
schools, especially of Virginia and North
Carolina. OF Indians seventy have al
ready graduated and gone back to their
homes in Dakota, and in the Southwest,
and are mechanics, farmers and hired
hands. Not over seven have gone back
to Indian ways, and eight have died.
On the whole the record of educated
Indians who have in the past three
years returned from Hampton to theil
homes has been satisfactory.
