A. HOMICIDE KEA.R BLiaSBima, N. J. ,
On Tuesday morning, about 3 o'clock, a party
of meu were engaged in moving tho housobnld
floods of J. liever, Irom a hnuso about two miles
Irom F.lllsburg, In Delaware towuslilp, near
the Burlington county line, to a place near
Woodstown. The party had assembled at the
above-mentioned hour In order to have an
early start. While the wagons wore bolng
loaded two of the drivers, one named William
Kelley and the other Davis Kelso, got into an
altercation about bolng the best mmi to work,
Kelley remarked that "he (Kelso) was not half
a man to work." Whereupon Kelso waxed
wroth, and pulled out a knife and made a cut at
the other, but tho knife, striking a boll which
was around his body, glanced off.
Kelley then bit Kelso betweon the eyes and
felled him to the ground, l'lcklng himself up,
be made another lunge at Kelley, and this time
entered the stomach about four Indies below
the navel, and, taking an upward direction,
made a wound about a foot In length the
bowels protruding. The mau Immediately fell
to the ground. Those lu the house, hearing the
rumpus, ran out and took the wounded man
Into It. lie had not been there more than five
minutes before he expired. The house, In the
meantime, had been surrounded by the neigh
bors, so bh to prevent the escape of Kelso.
When the Constable went Into the dwelling,
Kelso refused to leave, guying "He would cut
any man who dared to take him." He was
Hlttlug beside the deceased when the officer
addressed him. Kelso got up and went out of
the door as If to escape, but those outside imme
diately closed around him, and the ofBcer
coming op caught him by the back of the neck,
threw Tiim down, pot handcuff on, and with
the assistance of another, carried him to a
wagon, which was in waiting, and took him to
Camden County Jail. The Inquest on the body
of the deceased was held by Squire Fowler, at
Elllsburg, yesterday, and a verdict rendered In
accordance with the facts. Kelso acknowledges
that he did the cutting, and says Kelley beat
him. Jle exhibits signs of penitence, and Is no
doubt extremely mortified at having killed a
fcllow-helng. Kelley leaves a wife and several
children to lament bis untimely end.

A Resume of thk "Burial Ground"
CONTKOVKKSY, WITH UTHKK M ATTKRy THERETO
Appertaining. The final examination, with
reference to the accumulation of evidence for
and against the proposed sale of the Lutheran
Cemetery, bounded by Eighth, Vine, Franklin,
and Race streets, look place yesterday. Both
parties are now anxiously awaiting the ease at
the Common Fleas, the arguments then to be
set forth, and the final decision.
We propose to give a brief resume of this con
troversy, from its inception three years ugo.
In the early part of 1)404, the Gorman Lutheran
Church Council, composed of otllcers and mem
bers elected from the congregation, determined
by vote to sell certai n properties belonging to the
Church corporation, Including a slice of 110 feet
in depth from the west front of this burial
ground, for the purpose of liquidating an out
standing debt against the corporation, which
was productive of greut evils. Agreeably with,
this action, a Dolitlou was presented, in Febru
ary, 1864, to the Mate Legislature, praying
for .the privilege of disposing of these proper
ties. This was refused. In October of the same
year, a second petition was presented to the
Court of Common Pleas, which gi anted its
prayer In part, by appointing an examiner to
' take testimony for and against the cemetery.
5 his was done, and the examiner reported
against the sale; but the Court overruled this,
and directed another, the last examination,
which has Just been concluded.
Mow the arguments in the case are as follows:
The Churcu Council, and that part of the con
gregation who desire the disposal of the ground,
enter a plea to the effect that funds are neces
sary tor the liquidation of the Church indebted
ness. To meet this argument, the opposition
give evidenoe that the income accruing to the
corporation from ground rents, real estate, in
terest, etc., amounting to about $19,000 per
annum, can be so judiciously put to use that the
whole debt can within ten years be paid ofT,
leaving a yearly margin fully sufficient to meet
the contingent expenses of the Church in all Its
efforts. Secondly, the Council set forth that
money is needed to extend the sect, to build
church edifices nearer the outskirts of the city,
to establish schools, thus giving the denomina
tion abroad a foundation and a more enten--Give
influence.
This, again, is met by the affirmation that
money could be quickly raised from the sale
ol other real estate, without any sale from the
cemetery, which would be amply sufficient to
meet all demands In this direction. Tlie oppo
sition, composed in part of late members and
outsiders interested, bring forth many argu
ments in support of their position. First, if the
cemetery Is sold, it will beau impossibility to
Identify the graves of deceased relatives and
friends, in caso of removal, as the headstones
-were removed In the year 1848, when the ceme
tery was refined, and not rightly replaced.
Also, that numbers of the graves were never
roamed by any kind of bead-board, and conse
quently no proof the correct whereabouts can
be obtained.
Yesterday afternoon George Wagner, Presi
dent of the Church corporation, testified in
vldence that, when the burial-ground was
refilled and the headstones removed, stakes
were oareruiiy ariveu ana oareiuny luameu,
were placed in the exact sections occupied by
the stones, and that, after the renllrnent, the
monuments and head-boards were rightly re
placed. Healsosays that outof every twenty
graves but one was without any mark what
ever, and when the new earth was laid on, It
was smoothed above them, and their identifica
tion is forever lost. Mow taking into conside
ration that there are interred 20.000 bodies, by
the above statement 1000 are without any posi
tive mark. Looking at this fact In the abstract,
It is questionable whether any class of people,
who know not where their relatives were In
terred, would consent to the removal of their
bodies, their sacrilegious disturbance, or coun
tenance any proposition to tnat enect.
Th Church Council, according to their peti
tlon, do agree to disinter those bodies now lying
ju that part of the cemetery to be sold, and giv 1
ti.em a. decent burial in a new lot opposite
Laurel Hill. This Is opposed because, the oppo
sition assert, the size of the ground will not
permit of such decent and separate burial.
The opposition offer another argument, which
hours aLronelv on the case. Persons not mem
bers of the Church, by the payment of certain
urns, bought plots of ground for burial pur
Ttoses. Certificates to this effect were lately
fiiad before the Examine giving full, com
plete. and everlasting ownership to such pur-
montji river such nlois. thus constituting all
of such purchasers, In part, landholders of the
Whole cemetery.
Wf.ni inn seven of the charter of the corpora'
tlon, whieh was granted in 1705 by William
Venn and confirmed in 1780 by the Legislature,
says: That the said officers of the church, nor
their successors, shall not for debt, fine, or re
covery, grant, alien, or dispose of grounds, tene
ments, or messuages, by any menus or in any
manner to any person whatsoever.
These are the main arguments In the case on
both sides.
In an article published In the Philadelphia
Thmncrat (German), the other day. It was as
serted that this Journal was the "champion" of
the opposition, because in lis columns were
printed a great abundance of facts favoring
the opposition, deduced from examinations
before the lawful examiner : when this paper
but made public the real facts in the case. It
asserts, aUo, that the sale Is iieoessary, because
the debt of $80,000 is detrimental to the progress
nf the Church. The amount of this debt bears
strongly on the final decision of the question at
Issue. Instead of being 40,000, according to the
' many petitions and affirmations, during the
two years past, the amount of the debt has
mvsleriouslv fluctuated from $48,000 to $65,000.
The amount 150,000 has not yet been set forth in
evidence. The article sets forth that this jour
nal considers the Lutheran schools controlled
by this denomination as inferior to the English
primary, when that fact has been one of the
causes which led to the separation In the
Churoh, and a remote cause of this con
troversy. The article In the Philadelphia
Democrat disproves nothlne, but concludes
with a little blunt vulgarism, hoping, no
doubt, thereby :ui viva effect to the article.

A Safe Arrangement.- The National
Hunk of the Itepubllc, on Chesnut street, above
K.glith, has had workmen engaged, during the
past ten days, In placing tn position in its
vault four pohdcrousburelar-proorsafos, which
work was completed to-day, and the bank now
tins one of the strongest, If not the strongest,
lock-ups in the country. The safes were made
expressly for the bank, and composed of hard
ened steel and crystallized white iron, in solid
mass, two and a half inches thick, and weighs
over twelve thousand pounds. The vault in
which these safes are placed was completed
during the past year, and Is itsolf a masterpiece
of impregnability; tho floor, walls, celling, and
doors being composed of immense sections of
solid chilled and wrought iron, two Inches
thick, encased In heavy firo-proof masonry,
and resting upon a massive foundation of
granite slabs. The outer door of tho vault 1 s
three inches thick, beyond this a pair of
doors two inches thick, opening into tho book
vault, beyond this Is en inner vault of
chilled Iron two inches thick, with a door of
the sonro thickness. Tho four safes are placed
in this inner vault, and the money and securi
ties are distributed In them, affording greater
security thau if but one safe wns used to con
tain all. The vault ami safe doors are all pro
vided with combination locks, without key or
keyhole, Tho combined thickness of solid drill
proof metal contained i n tho three vault and
four safe doors is .nineteen and a half Inches.
When It Is considered that, In addition to all
this precaution, watchmen are constantly em-
? Joyed inside and outside of the Hank to guard
t both day and night, It is diflloult to conceive
bow greater security can be obtained.
Jkwklbt Stork Broken Into All

Baud 10 o'clock, the store of Alfred W. Hu
shaw, manufacturing Jeweller, No. 413 Chesnut
nut street, was entered, and ransacked In tho
most thorough manner. Tho burglars gained
admittance by the aiil of a deadlatch. All the
manufacturing tools, exceptiug one small pair
of pincers, a small amount of gold and silver,
an ebony flngeolot.and other articles to the value
of about t-W, were taken. A carpet-bag, filled
with books, blank checks, etc., was emptied
on the floor, and no doubt used to carry off the
spoils, as it is missing. Everything in the room
was upset in the search for valuables, but Mr.
Kenshaw had taken care to remove some of the
valuable articles to his room, not having a safe.
This loss in tools, etc, is quite severe on Mr.
Kenshaw, who is a young man, aud had but Just
set up in business. .Suspicions are entertained
as to whom the perpetrators are.

consider an artificial manure, shall beexamiued
by a regular agtlcullural chemist, and have his

kinds of manures to which he had referred,
which he did as follows: Hep 1, Super-phos-pateof
lime sold for 800, worth S;W; 2, alsosuper
phospate of lime, sold for $-iU, worth $40; 3,
burned grouud bone, sold at $00, worth $37-50;
there is very little ammonia in it, bones
are burned so much before that they oannol be
ground without losing about 3' per cent. 4,
Peruvian guuno is sold at $100. worth $4950.
How do we manage to analyze guano to find out
Its real worth ? e simply calculate how much
ammonia tlieie is in it. This is calculated at
at 12U cents per pound. Then we find how
much phosphute there Is In it, and we value
that at 1U cents per pound. 5, Saldanho guano,
sold foi $15, worth $20 79. 0, Tutl'oo, sold for $15,
worth $-80. 7. Poudrette, sold for $20. worth $14.

expedition to Investigate the rich mining terri

practical engineer, with a corns of twenty
natives, who traversed carefully all that section
of country. On the receipt of his report, they
finally made choice of the land which forms the
groundwork of the Specio Basis organization.
The title for the same vim obtained from the

It was further to the southward than other
mines previously developed, and the theory of
geologists Is that the metalllo veins radiate
from thecentre of the earth or tho equator; the
nearer, therefore, the proximity to that centre
tho greater their value. This theory is fully
confirmed by the richness of the mines In
Mexico ana Peru. Secondly, the climate was so
mild that labor could be carried on without In
terruption for all tho twelve months of the
year. Thirdly, the site chosen was within fifteen
to twenty miles of Hardy vllle, a shipping point

The 'Wool Interest.
In the Globe report of the closlnic debate on
the tariff, In which Senator Sherman Is made
to do Injustice to Mr. II. N. Klater.of Worcester,
Massachusetts, who was alluded to. Mr. Sher
man was quoted as sayihsr that Mr. Slater
wanted to get his wool duty free, and thai he
extolled tn the highest terms the tariff of 1357,
which admitted wool free of all duty, regardiug
that as the most admirable system that could he
devised, because It enabled bim to buy his arti
cles without any tariff duty. This, so far as Mr.
Slater Is concerned, was a mistake, as that gen
tleman has simply expressed his belief that tne
present tariff, with the higher duttos Imposed
last summer on low-priced wools. Is the best
adjustment that can be made between the
manufacturers and the wool-growers.
In his opinion, the lncreaseof duties on wool
lens proposed by the bill now before the House,
by adding some thirty to forty1 millions of dol
lars per annum to the cost of goods, would in
flict a serious injury upon the manufacturing
interest, and would consequently injure the
wool-growers. Such extravagant duties as are
proposed would be evaded, and thus the reveuue
would do us no benefit, while the manufactu
rer and the wool-grower would be virtually
deprived of protection.
