Showers of Rock in Carolina.

CHARLESTON, S. c., Aug. 5.-The
Lancaster Labor publishes the fol-
lowing remarkable story: son tho
plantation of Mr.. Il T. Dunlop
live two negroes whose house has
been showcrcd with rocks from the
skies. This wonderful phenomc-
non of rocks falling has been going
on in that locality at intervals for
more than ten days, and people for
miles around gather there to wit
ness it. The rocks vary iii size
from an egg TO cocoanut. y pc
culiarity about them is that they
have fallen upon several persons
without giving any hurt or pain.
i number OF white men who hOotcd
at the idea have visited the place
and are convinced Of the truth Of
the story. A number of gentlemen
rode out on Monday to witness the
phenomenon. They were nottherc
long before sound on the shingles
notified them that rock had fallen.
It was picked up and found 20 be
quite hot. Ii rescmblcd flint and

4 NEW CRIMINAL CODE.

The system Of trial b. jury, Is
generally admitted 10 be- faulty,
and while this is true, it is equally
true, that better system Is not
easily found. 1t il questionable if
the present system is susceptible
of much improvement. But tho
TINES thinks that the matter of
punishment for crime, IS capable
Of very considerable improvement.
Under the Mosaic dispcnsation,
the punishment f0r crime was based
on the crime itself, that is, The
punishment WAS commensurate
with the crime. This, was 4 good
law as far as it went. but it did not
90 far enough. The punishment
for the crime Of murder OF anything
in tho WAY Of inutilation ought 90
be punished by exactly similar
treatment. ItA man 70. instance,

have his nose bitten of. II might
be somewhat difficult TO find a bitter,

could doubtless be found provided
he was sufficiently paid for his bite.
Or il a man should gouge another's
eye ont, he should have his eye
gougod out, and so Oh through the
entire catalogue.
These remarks are called forth
by -cadingin the daily papers, the
account Of 4 negro woman revenge
on another negro woman, in Nash
Vile. Instead of assaulting the
woman she desired TO injurc, this
iiend took the little four months
old child Of her enemy, and poured
concentrated lyo down its throat,
and over It's head. OF course the
child died. Now the only adequate
punishment, for an act of this kind,
is precisely similar treatment. 1t
may sound harsh to suggest such
ideas but the law contemplatcs,
not revenge for criminal act, but
a punishment as a warming to Of
tenders. No one can doubt that
the plan proposed by the TINES
would prove very cltectual warn

A Happy Quartet.

Mr.. Nc Cranie, besides editing
the Ouchita Telegraph, has made
up his mind that President Clevc-

patronage. He is not alone in this
idea. The Plaquemines Observer,
the Madison TINES, and. we be-
licvc, another little but loud-nouth-
ed organ somewhere in the back
woods, stand with him. OF all these
the Observer acts with the smallest

THE MISSING LINK.
A Long Wanted Witness for the
Famous Tichborne Found.

A Long Wanted Witness for the
Famous Tichborne Found.
: DEs MONIES, Ia, April 3O-The Tichborne
case involving the English baronetcy, and
an immense estate in England, has come to
have local interest in Des Moines. 1t will
be remembered that at the close of the trial
of Arthur OrtOn, claiming to be Roger Itch
borne, heir TO the title and property, he was
declared an imposter and sentenced 10
twelve years Imprisonment. At that time II
was claimed by Ortons counsel that the
testimony of one man, whose whereabouts
they were unable TO locate, would fully es-
tablish the identity of his client lie
could not be found and Orton was
transported. About one year ago his term of
Punishment expired and ne returned TO Eng
land again and began the task of proving
himself TO be Roger Tichborne. Marshal
Hafner, of DeMOines, among other peace
officers, was correspOnded with IN relation
to the missing witness. Some four weeks
since he became satisfied that he had located
him IN California. In fact the Marshal dis
covered another man that personally knew
the witness. and had been assured by him
that he could fully identify OrtOn
and Tichborne. This intelligence
Hafner conveyed TO London by parties hav-
ing the matter in charge, who forwarded to
him 5000 with which to prosecute the search
for the witness. Accordingly Marshal sent
the Clerk of the Police Court to the Pacific
slope on this errand, and to-day was re-
warded by a telegram from him, dated at
San Francisco, stating that he had been sue
cessful in his mission. He had seen the man
and ascertained that his evidence would be
all that was expected. McCord will be home
on tuesday. Marshal Hafner cabled the
report to London.

MACKlNAC ISLAND HARBOR.
The Report of Engineer Poe on the
Proposed improvements.

Col. Poe, engineer in charge of the dis
trict, has made the following report upon
the projected improvement of Mackinac
harbor
If a harbor is to be constructed it should
be located at Mackinac harbor or vicinity,
rather than at Mackinac Island harbor, and
my preference would be for the bay Just west
of old Mackinac point. That a harbOr of
refuge in this locality would be a great con-
veience there can be no doubt, but to be
efficient nearly or quite two miles of break
water would be necessary, the cost of which
would not toe much. If any, less than : 800,
00O. The effect of this would be
to afford shipping safe har-
Dor without going out of the way
from four to seven miles, and notwithstand-
ing the convenience Of such a harbor, can
not bring myself to the conclusion that the
object Il sufficient to Justify the expenditure
of 20 large a sum. Ii must be borne IN
mind that It would be under somewhat ex-
traordinary conditions that the harbOr would
be used. Ordinary storms do not greatly
endaager shipping IN the straits of Mack
mac. Approaching fully the great magnI-
tude of the commerce shrough the Straits of
Mackinac, | come with reluctance to the
conclusion that such a harbor IA not worthy
OF Improvement by the general
government For harbOr for
local purposes the preferable lOca-
ton would be IN ne near vicinity of the rail
road piers at Mackinsc harbOr. But this
locality Ia naturally protected only from the
north. west and south. To protect It from
winds coming from the northeast and south
east artificial protection would have TO be
supplied. To do tins efficiently would involve
the construction Of nearly a. great length Of
breskwater A. in the case of harbOr OF
refuge. the cost would be very great, and Il
is my opinion that the inconvenience TO local
interests l. not sufficiently great TO warrant
the expenditure.
