Melville.
The foregoing brief despatch tells the
sad and melancholy fate of Lieut. De
Long and ten of the men who went out
with him in t he Jeannette to explore the
.Arctic regions, i,e vessel was pur
l lie vessel was
Francisco, the Jeannette was crushed
by tho ice in the Arctic ocean, and De
Long, dividing the crew into three par
ties, with himself at the head of one,
7-nineer Melville, who sends the des
patch, at the head of another, and Lieu
tepant Chipp in charge of the third, took
refnrro ir. the three boats of the ship. In
a heavy gale at. night the boats became j
separated. Chi op's boat has never been !
heard fiom and was mi doubt lost in the
storm. Melville's party managed to
reach one of the months of the Lena
river, in Siberia, in September last,
and it is known that DeLong and his
party reached the coast at a point north
of the Lena about the same time. This
information is based on the fact that
two rf his men, sent by DeLong to hunt
a settlement and to return with provi
sions for their relief, reached Bolenga.in
Siberia, on the 20th of October. As
soon as Melville could organize an expe
dition he started back to search for his
companions, and the result is announced
in his despatch as given above. It is a
sad thing to learn of thesp brave and ad
venturous men thiis dying fronf slow
starvat ion, but the fate of the Jeannette
and her gallent crew will not deter oth-
ers from embarking in the same hazard- i
ous and foolhardy enterprise. Melville's I
full report, of his search will be awaited
with deep interest.
"WnEN Mr: Merrick, one of the coun
sel for the government in the Star route
cases, made the statement in court two
weeks ago that the prosecution had am
ple evidence to prove the guilt of Ste
phen "W. Dorsey. ex-U.S. Senator from
Arkansas, and now nn of the defend
ants, the head and front really of the
Star route ring, Robert G. Tngersoll,
who is Dorsey's counsel, said to him
with all the coolness of a veteran gam
bler ; "I'll bet jou a thousand dollars
yon have not." To which Mr. Merrick
replied : "that's not the way we try
cases in law, by letting." "You know
the old story," responded Ingersoll. 'put
up or shut up." Thus endeth the first
chapter. Now for the second. There
are two Dorseys. the ex-Senator. Ste

W. seems to have a strong repugnance
against his appearance in conrt. although
he is under bavv londs to doso, and Tn-
gersoll had pledged Mr. Bliss, another
of the government's counsel, that he
would produce him when wanted. Jno.

OIK PHILADELPHIA LETTER.
Philadelphia, May 8, 1SS2.
Regular Correspondence The Frkf.man.
Dear McPike There has been an
infernally blue and disagreeable time
here for th last eight or ten days.
Clouds have hung over the city during
the entire time. Thousands have been
sad and sorrowful with exasperated
bronchials, and especially sad and sor
rowful has it been with those afflicted n
that way who have ben without whis
key and rock candy. If there had been
just a little sunshine it would have been
inspiriting ; but without it one felt as if
he would as soon live as die. It would
bo a very inconvenient time for me to
die for many reasons which would be un
interesting reading if I were to give
them.

Presidents are becoming very expen

Tilden 5-200,000 to support ITayes'four
years, and it cost the government 1S0,

comes six men who during Garfield's
illness worked the Jennings' refrigerator

breath registering GO degrees Fahren

were neglected by the remunerating

dollars, however, will probably satisfy
the organ men.

BLAINE AND BELMONT.
Things are not what they seem."
The public is looking with great inter
est to future developments coming out
of that highly exciting and dramatic
scene in the Foreign delations Commit
tee. Blaine said Belmont was not
gentleman, and Belmont said Blaine was
a bully and a coward. How much long
er will the public have to wallow in im
aginative gore ? The young Xew York
er struck a very sore and tender nerve
of the old Maineite. Surely all the un
pleasant odor the Peruvian guano bus
iness has not been il-limlted. Is the
bully afraid of reviewing the fragrant
memories of the episode of the Mulligan
letters ? Are there to be no more guano
blossoms ? Are tfcey both truthful ? Is
one not a pentleman and the other a
bully and a coward ?
INGERSOLL VS. BLISS.
Much as I regret trouble in our ordin
arily peaceful country, I cannot refrain
from remarking, with as much delicacy
as may seem requisite in the premises,
that I do not see how a hostile meeting
between Mr. Ingersoll and Mr. Bliss
can be avoided. I do not suppose that
either of those eminent and brave men
wishes to die so early; but if the melan
cholv affair cannot be adjusted by any
possible method of eompromiae, and
death be inevitable, I feel it my duty to
advance the opinion that the the most
eminently proper way in which to die
would be under the Gahvay code. I have
a neighbor friend who has a certified
copy of the Galway code, which he will i
be pleased to place at the disposal of the i
aggrieved party, and if he should hap
pen to desire professional information as
to the exact technical nature of his pre
cise scientific methods of redress to be
adopted, mv friend will pi. lighten him
on both. My friend lias also a magnifi
cent pair of hair triggers, which have
been known to bring down single birds
on the wing. If these brave men must
die. let them die undertheGalway code,
and at the muzzles of my friend's hand
some shooting-irons. I do hope, how
ever, that a hostile meeting between
these two brave gentlemen will be avoid
ed bv tho arduous intervention of
friends. This is merely a suggestion of
my own.
SOLDIER VS. SOLDIER.
All the Republican Gubernatorial
booms, even the Farmer Butler boom,
setm to have fizzled out, and the friends
of General Beaver see the way clear for
his nomination for Governor by the Re
publican State Convention. As the Re
publicans of Penns3dvania have settled
upon a soldier as their candidate for
Governor, and as the Democrats have
seemingly settled upon a civillian as
their candidate for Governoi, would it
not be politic for the Democrats to place
a soldier candidate on their ticket for
oneof the other State offices ? The
Democrats have as glorious a list of sol
diers to choose leaders from as have the
Republicans. In Major Moses "Veale
the Democrats have as great a war vet
eran, as have the Republicans in General
James Beaver. Major Veale has a more
glorious war record than Gen. Beaver.
Veale has a war record before which
Beaver's record, even with his 306 brass
medal added, would grow dim. Major
Veale participated in the following de
scribed battles and engagements in the
late war, viz: Boliver Heights, Cedar
Mountain. Gettysburg, Chancellorsville,
"Wantratehia. Brandy Station, Mission
ary Ridge, Rocky Face Ridge, Nicka
jack Trace, Riggold, Dalton, Snake
Creek Gap. Ressacca, Dallas, Cassville,
Kennesaw Mountain, Beige and capture
of Atlanta, seige and capture of Savan
nah, and the seiges and captures of
Bentonville and Averysboro. He was
wounded six times. One ball passed
through his right shoulder and one
through his body and right lang, and
narrowly escaped deat h on many occa
sions. But not onlv is his military re
cord good and brilliant, but as a civil
Pan he has an unblemished reputation.
He is a cultivated gentleman, an able
and eloquent speaker, a man wdio will
elevate the standard of any party, and
reflect character upon the ticket. If the
Democrats of Pennsylvania are wise
tbev will not ignore the soldier element
of the State, but place a soldier such as
Major Veale on the State ticket. "With
the gallant soldier Veale on the ticket
as Lieutenant Governor, and with an
able Chairman of the State Committee,
such as George McGowan, a Democratic
victory will le assured. G. X. S.

A BLOODY DEED.
THE NEW IRIPH SECRETARY AN HIS ASSIST
ANT roui-LT MCRDHRED.
Drni-iJ?. Jf?iy 0 A terrible tragedy oc
curred here to-nit;ht. Lord Frederick Cav
endish, the new Secretary, and Mr. Thomas
flenry Burke, the Undersecretary, were as
sassinated In Phoenix Park. About half-past
seven they left the Under Secretary's lodge
to walk over to the Chief Secretary's resi
dence. WliPn within one hundred yards of
the Phnpnix Monument they wpre attacked
by four men wearing slouched hats. It is
supposed Mr. Burke was first asiilpd and
stalibed through the heait. Lord Frederick
Cavendish attempted to defend him. but be
too was stabbed hv the assaas.jns. They re
peatedly plunged their knives into the breasts
of their victims, and having cut their throats
thev got on a car and drove ranidly from the
park by theChapelized gate. Afewminntes
afterward a man walking along the park
road found the bodies covered with nlnod,
nnd at once informed the police, who had the
bodies removed to the Stephens Hospital. A
slisht examination was made, and it was
found that Lord Frederick Cavendish's arm
wa also broken. The news rapidly spread
and created the wildest excitement and con
sternation in the city. Lord Spencer and the
Viceregal party were just going down to din
ner at the lodge when the news was sent to
them. Some members of the household were
at the opera at the Gaiety Thpatre and were
sent for. When the cause of their departure
was known the excitement was intense acd
a proposal was made to stop the perform
ance, which was ultimately cut short.
ljord Frederick Cavendish only arrived in
Dublin this afternoon along with Earl Spen
cer, the new Lord Lieutenant. lie was
present at the installation ceremonv in Dub
lin Castle, and left th-re with Mr. Burke, his
fellow-victim, early in the evening. It is
stated that some lads riding bicycles 1b the
park saw the attack and the murders, which
were the work of less than a minute. Manv
people were within a few hundred yards of
the scene of the assassination, but no one ap
pears to have been near enough to interfere.
When the bodies were first found Lord Fred
erick Cavendish's lips were moving, as if he
were' trying to speak, but he showed no
further signs of consciousness. It is needless
to add that the assassinations are attributed
to the Fenians, although this must be pure
conjecture. The assassins were seen enter
ing thn park on a car and driving rapidly
along the main road, and from all accounts
they must have encountered their victims as
they were crossine the road. Robbery could
not have been their object as nothing on the
bodies was touched.
PARNBLT, AND PAVTTT ON THIS APSASSrNA
TTOH A RINGING MANIFESTO.
LoNnoN, May 7. Parnell and Pavitt bare
spoken upon the assassination. Parnell said:
"'I am horrified more than I can express.
This is one of the most atroeious crimes ever
committed. Its effect must certainly be mot
damaging to the interests of the Irish people.
I have always found Lord Frederick Caven
dish a mos-t amiable gentleman, painstaking
and strictly conscientiouslin the fulfilment of
his official duties. 1 did not share the disap
pointment expressed in Liberal Irish circles
regarding his appointment, as I anticipated
that principal reform of the present session,
such as the amendment of the land act,
would be under Gladstone's personal super
vision and I believed the administrative re
forms would be somewhat postponed. I
cannot conceive that any section of the peo
ple of Ireland could have plotted deliberate
ly against the life of Tord Frederick, and I
am surprised the Dublin police, who had
been able to protect Mr. Forstr, should ap
parently not have taken anv steps to watch
over his successor during the few hours of
his official life in Ireland. There seems to
be an unhappy destiny presiding over Ireland
which always comes at the moment when
there seems some chance for the country, to
destroy the hopes of its best friends. I hope
the people of Ireland will take immediate
and practical steps to express their sympathy
with Mr. Gladstone in his most painful posi
tion." davitt'b denunciation.
Mr. Pavict s.aid : "No language I can pos
sibly command can express the horror with
which 1 regret the murders, or my despair at
their consequences. WhPn I heard of them
Saturday night 1 could not credit the news.
I grieve to think when the Government has
just run a rik in introducing a new policy ;
when everything seemed bright and hopeful;
when all expected the outrages to cease, this
terrible event should dash our hopes. I wish
to God I had never left Portland. The crime
was without motive. It is not only the most
fatal blow that has ever been struck at the
I and League, but one of the most disastrous
blows which has been sustained by the na
tional cause during the Inst century. Its oc
currence at this particular juncture seems
like a terrible destiny. My only hope is that
the assassins may be discovered and punish
ed as they deserve. It is wonderful how the
outrage could occur within a few hundred
yards, of the constabulary depot."

A Mother's Terrible Inhumanity.
Nancy Henry, a young r.egro woman, 28
years old, was brought to Selma, Ala., on
Wednesday, from a plantation thirty miles
distant, and lodged in jail, charged with kill
ing her son, a bov ten years of age, by con
tinued arid fiendishly barbarous treatment.
Ten days ago she commenced maltreating
her son in a particularly cruel manner, and
from that day until the moment when death
relieved him or all miserv he has been in a
condition superlatively pitiful. She whipped
him nntil he was unahle to walk, then took
a plank and struck him a blow that broke
his left leg, between the knee and ankle. A
day or two afterward, with the same instru
ment of torture, she broke the right thigh
bone and then, because he would not get up,
she whipped him with a strap to cure him of
possuming." An old riistvsevthe blade was
brought into play, and with this the helpless
boy was literally hacked to pieces. From
head to foot his body presented a succession
of revolting cuts, gashes, bruises and running
sores. Last Sunday, late in the afternoon ,
stretched on a thin ragged pallet, placed in
an out of the way corner of the house, the
boy died. On Monday he was buried in a
hastily scratched out hole, without coffin or

HrRiED After Tears of Waittno. A
strange burial took place at Palmyra, on the
Amboy Division of the Pennsylvania rail
road, a short distance from Bordentown. N".
J., on Tuesday of last week, when the bodies
of three children who bad been dead a num
ber of yeats, were laid to rest in the cemetery
in that village. Soms twenty vears ago. a
child of ITnrv Coy died, and the father, be
ing unwilling to have the child buried, had
the remains sealed up in a bronze casket,
which he stored away in a room in his house.
A year later two more of his children died,
and they were put in caskets and disposed ot
as the first one was. All attempts to induce
the father to have the bodies buried failed.
In all his travels through the country the
bodies were taken with the family. He at
one time lived at Camden, where he manu
factured surgical instruments, and had been
a resident of Philadelphia and other places.
He. finally settled one and a half miles from
Talmyra, where he died recently at the age
of sixty-one years. He was a very eccentric
man, and was unwilling to make the ac
quaintance of any one living near him. It is
stated that he would sit for hours in the room
with the caskets, and seemed to take pleas
ure in btiug with them.

Shortly after noon on Sunday last smoke
was seen issuing from the interior of the
massive stone Conrt House, in. Pittsbureh,
and bv 1 o'clock the stone walls only remain
ed. The fire created intense excitement, and
on account of the jail being attached to the
burning building fears were entertained that
the prisoners wnu'd escape. There was no
occasion for alarm, however, as the iail was
not in danger, and a close guard was kept
over the inmates, who were not aware that a
fire was in progress near them. A soon as
the fire was discovered a number of officials
and others forced their way into the burning
building and succeeded in saving nearly all
of the records and law lihrary. While en
deavoring to save the records in the Jury
Commissioner's office, narry McDermott, a
grandson of Jury Commissioner Hogan, was

debris, but the accident to McDermott is be
lieved to be tlie only one resultine fatally.
The building destroyed was of stone, and
originally cost about J2O0.000, and many
thousands have been expended in improve
ments. The insurance on the burned portion
is esO.OOO.
Duties of Supervisors. To the Lewis
town Democrat and Sentinel we are Indebted
for the following sensible article on the du
ties of Supervisors of public roads, to whom
we commend its careful consideration :
"The office of Supervisor of public road or even
a townhip Is an Important office. The holder of
this offlee oernplci a re?pon-lll position before
the puMte. He Is in many repeet the en-itodian
of the oittien their pecuniary lnteret are en
hanced by the proper dlehar or h! duties, and
to jome extent their safety aal comfort alao. And
he in holding- a responsible place from the faot
that he ta entrusted to levy a tax on the people,
and to expend It. It wonld tie well for those elect
ed to this office to consider how Important a trust
has been committed to them, and that thev are
holdlnn no mean place amonn the office-holders of
oar Commonwealth. They may readily see the
duties beloniclna: to their office If well performed
eontrlhnte at once and more directly to the hene
tlt of onr eltlxens than do those of any'other office.
His duties are Dot of those that are skirlied, or on
ly attended to when other things may not require
his attention. He has taken upon himself to
serve the public In this capacity, and the public
re expectiesr his services for the reason that they
have a rlirht fo them. There are many offices of
trust the holders of which may chirk duty and de
ceive and not be detected, bat not so with the Su
pervisors. The condition of the rond nnder his
eare are all the while bearinij tetimony, either to
his faithfulness or else to his nes-leet of duty. And
now if the office Is one of so much Importance, and
If Its dnties well performed are of so much Imme
diate benefit to the people, and as all that thee
overseers of onr roads may do on them or not do
on them most and will be evident, may we not
conclude that there reasons and motives enouith
to stimulate those to do rood work who have just
taken charge of or roads for the year.".

Ji rv.F. Df. n- ps Tavf.en Licenses. We
have published from time to time the views
expressed by Judge Dean f n the st.j.iwt of
granting hotel licenses a question which at
the first term of court in evr tv year in cacti
of the counties composing th's iudic:il dis
trict is the subject of more or less aeitation.
At the recent B'air county court, which
convened week before last, the usual diffi
culties presented themselves when the re
monstrances against granting license to cer
tain applicants were lcfore the court for Its
consideration. We publish below the re
marks made by the J udge in announcing the
conclusions at which ttie court bad arrivert.
Tbe concluding portion of them will probably
Interest some persons in this county whose
license petitions will he presented to the
court for its action at March term, lsgj.
Judce Dean said :
It may, of course, and d'uM1esx does, seem to
the eotinsel somewhat arr-i'rary to reftie these li
censes and arrant some others : hot we have not
acted arbitrarily In the matter, but have en lca
vored to icrant surh licences ns wethourht. under
the law. should be rranted. and have refused such
as we thonuht ought to be re1ued. In every cae
our dlcret1on ha been exrrrised In view of the
particular evidence a-Murfd in the cre. and the
locality of the house ; and havirs; exereled our
discretion, after a full hf-arinif and careful exami
nation of the facts, we Intend to adhre to one de
cision, and we do not Intend to change tt bv solic
itations or on motions to leeonsider. We do not
say we w'.lf not hear motions to reeonider 1t 1
our dntv to do that !f they should be made bnt.
as our discretion has been exercised afer full con
sideration. It is not at all probable that we will
make anv chanire. In any ease, in the decision we
have come to until another year has passed.
We have framed altoeether in the county f.Cty
one Ureases, Including those (rranted at the .lanu
ary term. It was saldhere on the prrt of the re
monstrants that 'the 'licenses should not be In
creased, and there has teen no ln"reace In propor
tion to the population. In lsso the population of
this county was 21.7Tfl.and the number of licenses,
hotels, eatina houses, etc.. was .r.K. or one to eveT
STS Inhabitants. In 18o the population was 27 J9
and the number of licenses wa f. or one to every
43 Inhabitants. In 1T0 the population was SS.C'Sl".
with 47 licenses, or one f.-r S09 inhabitants. In
183 the population was fj.TM and the number of
licenses was 44. or one for every 1.200 Inhabitants.
The population of the eonntv Is now probablv not
much less than 6S .0"0 and the number of licenses
PI. not much In excess In two vears atro. Statistics
show therefore the countrv "lias now onlv one li
cense so every I. loo or 1.200 or the population,
while In l?Ri there was one for everv STi ; and we
think, therefore, that the trafflo Is now confined to
about as narrow a limit as It can beunder the law.
It has been alleged here not proven, but alleged
In regard to some of the honses licensed, that
thev are not kept as hotels, but onlv as drlnklng;
saloons. The law does not contemplate the lieens-
Insr of saloons, and next year, 1T this question Is
raised, we will require applicants to el.ow by tbe
production of their registers, or other proof, that
the public has used them as hotels: and If the
ul. lie has not so used tbem. It matters not wheth
er they are large or well furnished or not. that tact
will be taken as evidence that they are not neces
sary and should not be licensed.
Makiko Crows Usefcl. Mr. W. 8. Mor
gan, ot Morgan's Mills, Somerset countv,
utilizes the crow in a way that will astonish
some of our realeis. His experience is giv
en in the Amertcan Agriculturist as follows:
"For the past rive seasons, 1 have, just befere
my corn came up. sowed on tne field about a quart
ol corn to the acre, and repeated the operation as
often as ncesry , nntil the corn was so laree
that they could not pull it up. II the com Is soak
ed until tender, they prefer pR-klnj; what tbev eat
from the surface rather than to pull tbe young;
plants to get It. The cost ef the corn thus sown Is
out a trifle : as a result I hare a great number of
orows almost constantly on my field, and after
they bave been satltfled with the corn, they pick
up all the Insect, srrubs, and eut-worms they find
as a dessert. In raising fifty acres of corn since
adopting, this plan, I have not lost a hundred
staiks by the crows and cnt worms combiaed."
