CARLISLE, MARCH 80, 1864.
DESTRUCTIVE CONFLAGRATION IN CARLISLE!
Ftve Dwelling Houses, a large Livery Stable,
Blacksmith shop, lfc. t burned to the ground /
On Tuesday night last, the 28th instant, our
town was again visited by a most destructive
fire, which has totally destroyed no less than
five Dwelling Houses, one large Livery Stable,
n Blacksmith Shop, Stable, a number of Sleighs,
and a large amount of other valuable property.
The fire was discovered at about half past II
o’clock of that night, in a small stable, in the
rear of the extensive Livery Establishment of
Mr. George Hekdel, on South Pitt street, and
so high was the wind, and so rapid the progress
of the flames, that before effectual assistance
could be rendered, all the buildings wo have
enumerated were reduced to ashes. The roofs
bf some of the surrounding buildings were seve
ral times on fire, but through the active and un
tiring exertions, of our firemen, to whom too
much praise cannot bo awarded, they were pro-
Served. Of the buildings destroyed, two dwel
ling houses on South Pitt street, belonged to Dr.
t: C. LttoUis, who was insured; the dwelling
house belonging to Mrs. Phillips, on South
Pitt street, was/also insured. The principal
sufferer, however, is Mr. George llbndbl, upon
whose premises the lire originated. His large
livery establishment, blacksmith shop, &c., on
South Pitt street, together with his dwelling and
tenant houses on West Porafret street, besides
much other valuable propery, have been entirely
consumed, and upon which there was but a very
small, if indeed any, insurance. Wc deeply
Sympathize with Mr. Ilendel. who is now ab
sent at Lancaster, and shall bo happy if his loss
turns out not to be so heavy as is now generally
supposed.
The fire is believed by many to have been the
work of an incendiary. If so, wc hope tho ma
lignant perpetrator of so foul a crime may be for
feited,out and brought to condign punishment.
German Lutheran Congregation.
We understand that a number of European
Germans, and others, citizens of this borough
and its vicinity, heretofore connected with the
Evangelical Lutheran Church of Carlisle, have
withdrawn from that congregation, with the in
tention of erecting for themselves an edifice, in
which they may worship the God of their fath
ers in the German language. They allege that
in the Lutheran church of Carlisle, tho services
are conducted exclusively in English, a language
which many of them but very imperfectly un
derstand : and as their numbers here are quite
large and yearly increasing, they dtem it right
and proper, under the circumstances, to have a
building of their own. It is their intention to
purchase a lot in some central part of the bo
rough, upon which to erect a plain but commo
dious church edifice, and in order to accomplish
this, they solicit of the liberal minded of our
people a helping hand. A committee will wait
upon the citizens, and wc are informed that the
smallest contributions will he thankfully receiv
ed and duly reciprocated. We hope they may
be successful in their efforts, and that ere long
they may have a convenient church of their own,
in which tho Gospel shall be regularly preached
to them in the language of their ‘‘Faderhmd.”
Cumberland County Agricultural Soricty.
Wc arc glad to learn that an effort is about
l>eing made by several practical farmers, and
others, in this neighborhood, to establish in our
county an Agricultural Society. We hope the
effort may be crowned with oomplete success,
as Cumberland county, in this respect, is far
behind a majority of her sister counties. In
almost all Of the neighboring counties. Agricul
tural Societies have been formed, which arc m
a nourishing condition, and have been a source
of incalculable benefit to the husbandmen of
those counties. Wc think that for a county,
with a population as large os ours, and with
Interests so great and diversified, to be without
a Society, is a fact not very creditable to our
fanners, and speaks but poorly for their energy
and enterprise.
The gentlemen, however, who arc foremost in
the present laudable movement, are known to
ua as energetic, public spirited, and intelligent
men : and in their hands, we feel assured, the
project will not be permitted to fall through, but
"ill be prosecuted with a perseverance which
must command success. It will be the object
of these gentlemen, after founding the Society
upon a liberal and permanent basis, to collect a
fund for the purchase of a lot of 8 or 10 acres
of ground, convenient to the borough, which
will be enclosed. Upon this lot will be erected
suitable buildings, stalls, shedding, 4c., f or the
accommodation of horses and neat cattle, and
other buildings for the exhibition of poultry,
together with an office building, leaving ample
room for ploughing matches, and depots lor
storing all kinds of machinery. It is intended
that the annual meeting of the Society shall be
held early in the fall of each year, at which time
will take place an exhibition of the various pro
ducts of the county, slock of every description,
poultry, agricultural implements, &c.
This is an excellent way to gather the men
of the county into one fraternal meeting each
year, and which in the end must bo productive
of much good. Again we say, wo wish the pro
ject may bo crowncfl with success, and wo take
this opportunity of saying, that our columns
shall be open to the ofllccra of "the Society and
its friends, to urge upon the agricultural portion
of the community the importance of sustaining
so noble and useful an institution as a County
Agricultural Society.

lov. Riglrr and the Franklin Canal Company,
When the Erie difficulties wercat theirheight,
md the charter of the Franklin Canal Company
was repealed, the people of Meadvillc and vici
nity complained bitterly of the repeal, and were
disposed to censure the Governor for the part he
took in the matter. That disposition has bem
removed by subsequent reflection and examina
tion of the facta. The Crawford Democrat says;
Upon reviewing all the facts connected with
it, wo do not see how he could well have pursued
any other course than the one he did. Wo can
not shut our eyes to tho fact, that the great mu-
jority ol tho people of the Stale were hostile to
the course pursued by the Company—that the
Supreme Court had virtually decided that It had
acted in violation ol its legitimate powers—that
the Legislature, with singular unanimity, with
out regard to party, raised Its voice for a repeal,
aud we think Gov. Bigler, therefore, has but
carried out their expressed wishes In all that
ho bos done. He was acting for tho whole State
—not for one, or half a dozen of counties—and
any faltering on his part might have boon pro
ductive of serious consequences to tho character
-of our Commonwealth. His course on thisques-
when properly understood, cannot fail to
meet the approval of the people.
The Governor seems to have acted with grout
energy and decision in taking charge of the rail
road, and at the same time exercised u commen
dable courtesy towards its oflicers. Tho ar
rangements made for Us care until finally disposed
of. are no doubt, the best that could have been,
adopted under the peculiar circumstances of the
case.
The Biutish Fleets.— The war preparations
in Great Britain arc on the most extensive scale.
On the 4lh of March there were anchored at
Portsmouth, fifteen ships carrying 800 guns,
and more were collecting. Thirteen ships were
also expected to rendezvous immediately at Spit
head. All have their full complement of men,
and at the last dates were busily engaged in
artillery practice. The “Dukeof Wellington,”
a three-decker of 130 guns, is to be Admiral
Napier’s flag-ship. The victualling of the fleet
was going on rapidly, and all leaves of absence
had been prohibited. The letter-writers speak
in wann terms of the gunnery. In one case,
that of the Dragon, they hit the bull's eye twice
with the 84 pounder, and struck the target sev
eral times, and finally shot it away at a dis
tance of 800 yards. The reader may infer from
all this, what may be expected in the event of
a conflict.
The Albany Transcript says that Santa Anna’s
wife was born in Waterloo, 'Albany county, N.
Y., where she lived after she had attained her
majority, when she took to the stage. Her
maiden name was Laupaugh, but she assumed
another when she commenced a professional life.
Miss L. appeared at many of the principal
theatres in this country but finally went to Ha
vana, where she was seen by Santa Anna, who
became desperately enamored with her, and
finally wooed and won her heart and hand.
Wc arc not certain whether the matrimonial
rites wore performed at Havana or Vera Cruz,
but certain wo arc that Miss L. is now the wife
of Ilia Illustrious and Serene Highness Santa
Anna, of Mexico.
Indian Treaty —A treaty has been conclud
ed with the Nebraska Indian delegation now at
Washington, and sent to the Senate for confir
mation. It is understood that in this treaty
the Indians have stipulated that should any one
of their number be guilty of using intoxicating
liquors to excess, his annuity should bo with
held from him until he hod reformed. If this
provision could be carried out, it will have a
decided tendency to prevent druukennesj- among
them. The Indians have becomo‘tired of Wash
ington and arc preparing to return home.
Indian Ruuoer Teeth—One of the latest
achievements in manufacturers from India rub

vulcanized to tho hardness of ivory, and retain

mouth.
Tub Greek Ikburreotion.— Albania, where
tho rebellion against tho Turkish government

great bulk of Its population consists of Greek
Christians, who very naturally have but little
sympathy with tho. their government
or religion- ‘ *
TOE fflßlM IN INDIA;
• Tho fact* that thA English wish to keep Nicho
lasbut of Constantinople, not merely from mo
tives of sympathy for tho Sultan, but to protect
their Indian possessions, suggests to thinking
men to Inquire how they obtained, and by. what
tenure they hold those magnificent regions. We
ahull endoavoh tb fiirnish, in as-few words &a
possible, the information desired.
. The whole of the extensive empire, now hold
in India by thoEnglish,' originated from the trad
ing posts of a mercantile company. For more
than a hundred years tho English held no terri
tories ip India. But, abqUt a century ago, they
began to take advantage of tho weakness of the
native rulers, and by interfering between rival
Princes, to obtain excuses for waging wars, de
manding indemnities, and confiscating provinces.
Two abio, ambitious, daring, and unprincipled
men, Lord Clive and Warren Hastings, acquired,
in this way, and in less than a single generation,
upwards of two hundred thousand square miles
of territory. Tho example, thus set, has been
assldiously imitated since ; pleas in favor of an
nexation have been brought forward wherever a
temptingbaitappeared; and, at the present time,
tho English authority, according to official ac
counts, extends over six hundred thousandsquare
miles, and embrace a population of one hundred
and seventy millions.
If tho government by which this vast empire
is ruled, was one of equal rights, or even a ben
eficent one, there would bo some palliation for
this conquest. Bui it is confessedly a govern
ment of the sword. Withdraw the Britishtroops,
or even destroy the terror of the English mime,
and not a solitary province would be found, in
one year, to acknowledge the authority of Vic
toria ! This is confessed by every General who
has served in India—by every Statesman, and
by every writer of nolo. Nor is the cause of
this bitter hostility a Intent one. It is in the
nature of every people to hate and execrate in
vaders, but especially successful invaders, and
most of all haughty and insolent. All these the
English are to the natives of India. Former
conquerors of that magnificent realm admitted
the upperclasscs to some share in the administra
tion of affairs; trusted them; bestowed honors
on them ; endeavored to enlist them in the cause
of the now dynasty. The humblest citizen, un
der the old order of affairs, might rise to be a
vizier, a nabob, ora rajah. The first Prince of
Oudc was originally a petty merchant. The an
cestor of Sclndiah was a slave. Even to this
day, in the few independent Suites that are left,
a poor soldier often rises to he the virtual sovc
rign of his country. Thus, under the forms ol
a monarchy, the spirit of democracy is partially
kept alive.
But. in the territories which have been annex
ed to England, the natives are excluded from all
share In the government, and oven shut out from
the enjoyment of the most ordinary honors
They can hold no high rank in the army. They
arc not trusted with any civil employment i f
importance. They are allowed, indeed, to ac
quire fortunes by trade, and native millionaires
have been even knighted, occasionally; but the
field of political ambition is closed hopelessly
aginst them, and the prizes of military prowess
placed above their reach. What the Norman
was to the Saxon, for the first century alter the
conquest, that the English are now to tho people
of India. S.ven thousand Englishmen, and in
this number we embrace the army officers, ac
tually comprise the whole average male popula
tion of the invaders. Did over before so small
a muster caste lord it over so large a subject pop
ulation 7 Moreover, while former conquerors
did much to develop the resources of the coun
try, tho English have attempted little and atf.-ct
ed less. The aqueducts, the public buildings,
the tanks for irrigating the soil, were all the work
ol Moslem, or Hindoo Princes. If the English,
after a century of rule, were to be driven out
to-morrow, they would leave behind them no
record of their presence, except a single military
road, and the impoverished fields ol Hie provm
cos they had plundered.
Tho victims of this haughty, remorseless, and
grinding conquest, were not a barbarous people,
to whom, in the emt ol modern fihbu.stermg, in
vasion was “manifest destiny,” and subjugation
“ tho law of progress.” They boast ol civiliza
tion older than that of England, and, in many
particulars, quite as noble. They had an organ
ized social fabric, with laws duly enforced, and
with municipal institutions that almost rival our
own, before the Normans crossed the channel,
before Ctcsar landed in Kent, before Alexander
crossed the Oxus. Thoirsystem of village com
munitioa Ja founded In the idea of local indepen
dence, as contradistinguished from centraliza
tion, an idea that lies at thu base of our own
institutions, and is indeed the all permanent po
litical corner-stone of liberty. These village
communities akfjf have kept India from disso
lution. Tho sworn, oven of British invasion, has
found it impossible to extirpate them ; and it is
their life which has maintained the hie of tho
whole moss.
Such an Empire cannot be expected always to
endure. Fifty times, according to an eminent
British authority, it lias been at the mercy of the
natives, and would have fallen, it the people of
India bad been united, and bud ventured to strike
for independence. Its extension, for many years,
bus been defended as necessary to self-preserva
tion. But, like the Empire of Napoleon, like all
Empires founded by the sword, it will perish
eventually by its own overgrown weight.—Phila
delphia Ledger.
Execution o( David Jewell.
Pittsbouq, March 21.—The execution of Da
vid Jewell, took place in Ihu jail yard this utter
noon at 2 o’clock. A large crowd thronged the
streets in the vicinity ol (he jail, from a nearly

About 400 persons were admitted into Uie jail

NAPOLEON AND THE EMPRESS, EUGENIE,
A letter from Paris to tho Philadelphia Doily
News, dated March 2, contains this item of
scandal:
Tho Empress begins to fonn tho subject of

very beautiful English lady—uMissTighe—who
has been invited to some recent balls, but who,
if Madame Rumor is to bo believed, can never
enter tbo Tullurles again, as long as Eugenio is
there. Tho probability seems to be thutneitbor

Tho following cloalQg proceedings in the case
of Mrs. Susan Hammer,- convicted of cruel treat
ment of hcr UtUe-eira, took place in the Phila
delphia Court of'Quarter Sessions-last Friday.
When called up aentCnco, Mrs. Hammer ex
pressocLa.vviah tor say something to the Court.
Judge Kelley directed her to proceed.
TheJfttrhing upon the child’s hip
was.accidental. I was ironing at the time, and
the Irorisllj)p6d oUt of my baud and burned him.
1 did not run the iron.up and down bis legs, nor
bum him VJR. thb jTaco and bands. ' There were
only three of .’the witnesses present who swore
against me.
Judge Kelliy—i9 that all you hare to say 7
Mrs. //.—Yea, sir.
Judge Ktliey~~ This case has been •patiently
heard, and the jury, have very properly convicted
you. l.un) free to confess that, if but one wit
ness had testified against you, I would have scru
tinized the tdstilhony very closely. 1 would have
been willing to believe t|iat one witness had sworn
falsely, rather than that a mother could commit
such acts as were given'ln evidence. But so ma
ny apparently respectable females as have testi
fied to the facts could scarcely have been guilty
of a conspiracy to commit perjury, and that too,
against a woman who had never done either of
them any injury. Their statements agree and
prove your conduct as a mother to be incompre
hensible. With what knowledge I have of hu
man nature, I cannot account lor it. Yesterday,
the facta were attempted to be denied. Now
you say the bum on the hip was an accident. 1
believe the hot iron was applied to five parts of
the child’s body spoken of by witnesses. The
mark on the hip is too eloquent and truthful a
witness to bo discredited. It could not have
gotten there accidentally, thong' i the burns on
the hands and face might have been ho inflicted.
No—the truth is, that you took down the child’s
clothing, and held the hot iron to his naked flesh,
until the skin was burned off, and applied lln
iron to both face and hands afterwards, first rub.
bing it up and down bis legs, to “iron him out,”
as you said,
Your case glvey’moro uneasiness than much
graver cases, for really I don’t know what to do
with you. Tho child Ims been removed, not
from your care,.but from the G'dencc of your
temper or your hatred toil. Still my sentenci
must bo such as to Show parents who arc dis
posed to bo cruel, that the laws of Pennsylvania
will not permit such acts ol barbarity to be per
petrated on helpless children. My sentence,
therefore, is, that you pay a flne of one cent and
costs, and undergo an imprisonment in the Coun
ty Prison for tho period of six months.
At tho announcement of the sentence, Mrs.
Hammer swooned,-and Mr. Hammer laboring
under great feeling, while the tears ran rapidly
down his chooka, asked permission to say a lew
words, which was granted.
Mr. H. —Your Honor, my wife’s mind lias
been very much disordered since this transaction,
and 1 greatly four that her reason w ill he entirely
overthrown, or her life sacrificed, if she he sent
to prison. There arc others here who will testi
fy to tho some state of facts.
Judge K.*— As there are many infants in the
State, 1 must show that tlie law lias energy enough
to protect them.
Mr. //.—Will you remand the child to me, sir?
Judge Kelly —No. Had your own admissions
upon the former hearing, that you took the child
out of bed while asleep, and whipped him with a
shoo, been given in Evidence the jury would have
convicted you also. In that event, I would have
sent you to the same prison for the same length
of time, but not to the same cel). The jury hud
no sympathy foryoo. os may bo seen by their or
dering you to pay tho costs, when there was no
legal evidence before, them of your guilt. As
the costs in your own case cannot be collected
from you, (tho costa-following the verdict,) you
are free from their payment, but I will never
give you tho child. '•
Mrs. Hammer was convoyed to prison.

Thy tender spirit, now at rest,
With angola bright—with all the blest.
We grieve thy slay on earth so brief,.
But in our tears there is relief i
Thy fleeting race below in run,
Thy little work on earth is done.
