In response to the resolution calling for in
formation the Secretary of the Treasury sent
to the House this morning a communication
on the subject Of violations Of the law re-
curing vessels engaged in coastwise trade to
be owned and commanded by citizens Of the

last July letters were sent to the collectors
OF customs at various ports of entry, making
inquiry upon this subject, and the answers

If You will remember few years ago the
word Malaria was comparatively unknown

So il is with nervous diseases, as they and
Malaria are intended TO cover what our

are caused by troubles that arise from a
diseased condition of the Liver which in

- Advices from the Mexican frontier say
that very unusual leniency is exhibited by
the Mexican authorities in regard to the
fate of the Mapula train robbers, three of
whom, Charles Smalls, Hutchinson and Doc
Hines, were caught, and are now in Jail at
Chihuahua. They have all confessed, and
their share of the plumber has been recov-
cred. 1t was considered a foregone con-
clusion after their arrest, that they would
at once be shot, as a recently passed law
expressly requires, but for some reason or
other the death penalty will not be infiict-
ed, but they will all be sentenced to hard
labor for life. Such a sentence is usually
served out in some of the mines belonging
to the Government, and the punishment
is considered equal in severity to that OF
the Russian exiles in the Siberian mines.
The reason of the leniency shown in miti-
eating the death penalty to imprisonment
for life, is because the culprits are all Amer
leans, with whom the Government did not
wish to be too evere.

RAILROAD NOTES.

The work on the railroad in this vicinity is
progressing very satisfactorily, the contractors
not having been seriously delayed on account
of the weather. Capt. Lewis is now placing the
timbers of the bridge at the crossing of the
Chester road, and it will not be a great while
before the old highway, obstructed since last
summer, can be resumed. Griffin & Gorton
are making good time OH their work of gra-
ding, as also are Smith d Lathrop. The grading
contracts of these firms extend about eleven
miles west of Yorkville.
The Johnson City, Tenn, Comet of last Thurs
day says: "Capt. II. Lumsden and Capt. W.
J. Johnson, came in from the Breaks last Sat-
urday, and spent two days in the city, return
ing Tuesday. Capt. Johnson has the line OF
the Three C's located beyond the mountain
and is pushing the work in Kentucky. Capt.
Lumsden is working a force of hands grading
the line in the Breaks, and reports work pro-
crossing as rapidly as circumstances and the
weather will allow"
The Camden c~ayespopdent of the Columbia
Register writes under date of Thursday:
"Now there are only two pieces of the road
bed unfinished between Camden and Lancas-
ter-one cut on the fourteenth mile, which will
be finished in a day or two-any way, by
the time the tracllayers get to lt-and the large
cut at Hanging Rock, which will be finished
this week. 1t is very probable that a regular
schedule will be running between Camden and
Lancaster on the Goth Of next month. Col.
Johnson, who arrived last night, seems we'll
pleased with the progress and is enthusiastic
over the future prosperity of the road and COM
munities through which it will run. He hopes
that Sumter will subscribe something, and
promises, if done at once, that the road will be
built from Camden to Sumter by July or
August. Tho authorities have under advise
ment an offer from a large contracting com
pany, whose plant Colonel Johnson says is
worth S75O,O00, to finish the road from Ash
land, Ky, clear through by January, 1889.
This company, if they get the contract, will
work at night, by electric lights, as we'll as
during the day, and will offer a good guaran-
tee to finish it by January, 1889, never mind
ing the TUNE and other difficult pieces of
work.

A goodly number of delegates, both
clerical and lay, were present from the va
rious churches of the Association. Rev.
J. d. Mahon was reelected Moderator and
S. Cryder Sturgis, clerk.
The special order, State Missions, was
taken up and discussed by Reys. F. O. S.
Curtis, j. D. Mahon and r. w. Sanders.
Quite a spirited discussion was had next
On the permanent endowment of Furman
University. Discussion opened by Rev.
r. w. Sanders, who was followed by 9th
ers on the same subject. Home Missions
received attention next and some facts
and figures were presented showing a vast
amount of restitution yet in the Southern
States, especially in Louisiana and Texas.
Statistics were read giving evidence of
the excellent and lasting work done by the
Home Board of the Southern Baptist Con-
vention to give the gospel to destitute
places in the Southern States.
Sunday-schools were next discussed, af-
ter receiving reports from the different
schools.
Satisfactory progress is being made along
this line, judging from statistics presented.
A mass meeting was held at 7.3O Satur-
day night, in the interest of Woman's Mis-

no doubt, will be the result of the meeting

There is another advance in phosphate
rock, and it is now held at S4.60 per ton,
delivered at the mines, against $4.25 last
week, and $3.50 to 81 a few weeks ago.
Good crops, free demand and the discour-
agement of foreign shippers by the former
low prices, are given as the cause.
The advance in kainit is attributed to
the fact that the visible supply is 10000 to

PEREMPTORY CHALLENGES.

IEnEMI 1Unl OHduDE-NuLOs
An exceedingly nice question will prob
ably arise as to the application Of the Act
of the last Legislature to reduce the num-
Der of challenges allowed the accused in
certain criminal cases. For example, sup
pose a prisoner is arraigned for trial, at
some of our approaching terms OF court,
for murder. Suppose that the killing oc-
Cured before the recent Act was passed,
or had zone into effect. 10 what number
of peremptory challengesis the accused en-
titled? Will he be allowed only ten, &C.
cording to the law at the time of his ar
raignment, or twenty, as the law stood at
the time the homicide occurred? When
a person is accused of a crime, it would
seem hard that the Legislature should
have the power to reduce the number OF
his peremptory challenges. 1fthey may be
reduced from twenty to ten, there is moth
ing to prevent the Legislature from re-
ducing them even to one or none at all,
if it should be desired to obtain the con-
viction of some prisoner. OF course this
is not likely to occur with honest legisla-
tors; but the question is, have they the
power? If the courts hold that in the
case we have supposed the prisoner is en-
titled to only ten peremptory challenges,
it gives this power to the Legislature.
And yet it is probable that the courts will
feel bound to declare this to be the law,
and hold that the accused is entitled to
peremptory challenges according to the
law at the time of his ~arraignment, and
not at the time the crime was committed.
There is nothing in the nature of a con-
tract between the prisoner and the State,
by virtue of which he can claim the num-
Der of challenges to which he would have
been entitled at the time Of the perpetra-
ton of the crime. The State does moi say
"if you will commit this crime, / promise
you twenty challenges when you are put
on trial for it," The Constitution declares
that the accused shall have a trial by jury.
The Legislature declares that upon ar
raignment he may have, in certain cases,
twenty peremptory challenges; this priv
ilege, granted without a consideration,
may be revoked by the same power by
which it was granted. At any rate, how
ever, the courts may hold on the question,
the point is a nice one for some of our
subtle attorneys to discuss Columbia
