Connecticut' IJegeucrncy.
Some tlme age Connecticut was known
ii3 tlie land of steady liablta ; but if it
ever deserved tlie name it liai sadly
degencrated from its ancient estate ;
for It is chiefly distinguished new as the
state which has the lurge3t percentage
of divorces per capita and whero women
nre murdered by undiscovered assassins.
Incidentally Connecticut efllclals are
colebralcd for n detective skill that never
detects. The state seems te be under
the frown of providence ; for tlie
minutest and most elaborate investiga
tion of scientific experts falls te uncover
the authors of the crimes against its
defenceless females. The scientific
Illumination of tlie Hayden trial, of
n few years age, excited the adinira
Hen of the world, but did net
illsclose the guilt it was invoked te es
tiblish. An astonishing amount of in
formation was furnished us as te the
value and action of priens, and the
experts en the different sides differed
dellglitfully and diametrically as te their
conclusions. Yeu paid your money
and you had your choice. Then
lately the Malleys were elaborate
ly tried in New Haven for tlie
murder of Jts street belle, and acquit
ted after an exhausting effort te prove
them utility ; which failed te show them
te be assassins, though they might
profitably have been hung as ravishers.
Tliis does net, however, seem te be
thought a crime of much consequence
in Connecticut, as no effort was made
te punish these men for it after their iw
qulttal of murder. New we ilnd one
Mr. Lewis in the toils of the
Connecticut law en suspicion of
the murder of the girl he was going U
marry, and strange te say this fact, that
he was engaged te marry tlie weui.ui.
furnishes the sole supposed motive for
his alleged crime. Tne etllcers of the
law in Connecticut seem te be persuaded
that a man who repents himself of ask
ing a girl te marry him. may naturally
find the shortest way out of the trouble
te He in killing her. There is no evi
dence in this case that Lewis had thus
repented outslde of tlie fact that his
sweetheart was killed. II tit the Cennec
tlcut elllcials, arguing backwards, as
sumo that the lever killed the girl, and
then conclude that he did net want her,
te get his motive for deingaway with her.
It may be that in Connecticut, where
a nan seems te marry only te get di
vorced, it is just te suspect girls
who are found dead by the roadside te
have been slain by their premised hus
bands. Love in Connecticut appears te
boa short lived thing ; and if its husbands
seen tire of their wives, its levers maybe
accused of tiring of thegirls they prom
Ise te marry. Still, since divorces are se
se easily get, why kill a girl te get rid of
her? Wherefore net marry first? It
must be confessed that In this view of
the subject, the Connecticut elllcials who
accuse Lewis of slaying itese Ambler,
give us te understand that a woman's
lile in Connecticut is held as of ery
little account.
Considering that Connecticut la one of
the most ancient settlements, with its
people sprung direct from the Pilgrims'
lelus,aiid with churches and schoelhous s
dotting thickly its sandy valleys and
barren hills, a pertinent question arises
in contemplating Up preeminence as a
woman despoiler, as te the exact value of
Us civilization.
Unnecessarily iiisliiiDcd.
Many timid peeple have recently al
lowed themselves te become very much
disquieted ever the appearance in the
heavens of a comet, which has been as
certained te be the return sunward of
that of 1M3, and alarm is felt in some
circles attheomlneus frequency of come
tary appearances. Direful speculations
are indulged in as te tlie probable result
of collisions between heavenly bodies,
and the chcurful picture is dwelt upon
of waking up some day in eternity te
Ilnd our planet nothing but a vaporous
ball, as the icsult of a collision with a
stellar inhabitant of equal volume.
These gloomy foiebedings, while, ne:
without some foundation, are entiul)
unnecessiry. Net unnaturally our Unite
minds fail te grasp the extent of the
universe of space. Said mi is it remem
bered that millions of millions of mil. a
intervene between stars or planets and
their next deer neighbors, and that the
probability of a collision between thorn
is inllniteslmally less than that which
miglit tnke place between two rud lerh ss
ships crossing the Atlantic.
Granting the possibility of audi a
catastrophe, it is interesting te c nijee
ture wli it might ba the prob.ible r- u!t.
Were our planet te collide with a solid
body of equal volume, doubtless the heat
generated would transform bHhimmc
diately te tlie vapori.el form, which
would practically be an annihilation of
their oxisteuco. In e.vu of th" collision
of gaseous bodies scientists assert that
the compound immediately after the lin
plngement would possess remarkable
brilliancy, which would bi uure notice
able from Its sudden disappearance mi
mediately afterward. This theory ex
plains the occasional phenomena recorded
of stars never befere vlsible appearing
and disappearing almost In an instant
of time.
Tne quoitien, however, in which Uu
Inhabitants of the earth are most inter
ested Is the consequences that would
result from a collision batween the earth
and u comet, as ethor vaiieties of piano
tary illsturbanca are se remotely proba
ble as te ba scarcely worth serious con
Blderatlen. Manifestly the effect of such
a collision would 1)3 dependent en the
mass of the impinging comet. As this
mass Is regarded its very lnslgnlllcant in
comparison with that of the earth, its
eilect in striking the latter would be
scarcely appreciable. A delightful state
of uncertainty exists us te the com
portion of u comet, and this fact rend
ers all conclusions in reg.ml te it very
problematical. Great destruction must
luevltably oneue If a solid cemetary mass
collided with the earth. Hut as the llke
llhoed of their collision at the point
whero their orbits Intersect is oxtremely
small In the great unlvorse of space, the
chances favor the destruction of the
world by some ether means than the
collision of the denizens of ther heavens.
Tim Pittsburg Poslquite agrees" with
the Lancaster IXTELLiauxcuu and
Ilarrisburg Patriot, that unless the
Democratic Hottse can muster a full
quorum of members en the Democratic
slde at all Its sessions, It had best ad
jeurn as speedily as possible. It is one
of the conditions of the prolonged con
test for honest, just and fair apportion
ment that Democratic members shall be
faithful te their duty." Tlie Wilkesbarre
Union Lcatr, the Ila.leten Plain
Speaker, of the Democratic dailies, and a
dozen of the most respected and lulluen
tl.il Democratic weekly newspapers of
the state have been outspokenly for
some weeks advocating the some policy.
It may he taken as a general sentiment
of the press of the party, as it certainly
is el its people ; mid we have reason te
knew that Gov. Pattison is of the same
mind. Nevertheless the Heuso is
again in session this week with
less than lel members present.
and yesterday the Jenkins sena
terial and representative apportionment
bll had te be referred back te the
committee because had it net come up
en final passage there would net have
been enough Democrats present te lunc
passed it en third reading. If there is
no occasion for a Democratic majority
of tlie Heuse te be present there is no
occasion for any of thet te be there ; If
there is no occasion for them te meet
ottener than three times a week and
once a day there is no justification of
then staying in Ilarrisburg.
The city of Philadelphia is informed
by tlte competent chief of Its water
wi iks that in a portion of the city the
water pipes would net furnish the water
te extinguish a conflagration. They are
choked with rust and dirt aiul need te
be relald. He also informs the ieeple
that some sections of the eity are sup
plied with water drawn directly from the
filthy chuylkill, without the interven
tion of reservoir in which it may be
purified. These statements are undis
puted and yet the councils hesitate te
provide the money te furnish the people
with geed and sutllcient water. It is a
ery foolish hesitation. Philadelphia
collects an enormous revenue from its
people. It should at least give them
water fit te drink.

At New Yerk great excitemeut was
caused in the neighborhood of the llntish
consulate Tuesday aftorueou by the repert
of two pitel shots aud the spectaole of ,i
hitlew man running at the top of his
spejd. The fugitive was pursued and
c ip'.urcd by a pjheeman. He gave the
name of Pcciey and it was learned that he
had attempted te take the lite of the
British consul by tirmg two shots at him.
When the prisoner was brought te the
New ftreet station house he described
himself as Jehn A. Feeuey, aged -ii years,
sii Irishman, nt.d by trade a coachman.
He appeared sickly aud said he was but
lecently discharged from llull'.Ue. He
declared that he had come from Cauada
en purpese te kiil the British consul, who
had becu libeling his character. It was
evident that he was of unsound miud, A
complaint beiug preferred against him by
Kdmund Prentiss and David Oik, jr., of
the British consul's etlije, he was taken te
the Tombs pelice court for examination.
When Feeuey entered the outer room of
the British cousulate he drew a seven
chambered revolver aud tired two shots,
appatently without any dottnite aim and
without hittiug any one. He was arrested
immediately afterward by Utlloer Jehn
L'arr, of the first precinct.
In oenrt Feeuey acted iu a wild, excited
mauncr.shoiitingeutthatho wanted te kill
the villiaus whu bad accused him of crime
and published stories against his charac
ter. Te a reporter he said that he IiaJ
been arrested in Dublin without cause nn 1
locked up in ivilmaiuham. While there
he was etlered L'jOO te swear falnsl)
ngiiust a fellow priseuer. He refused.
When it became known that he had in
formed ethers of the offer made him he
was locked up iu a stage coach aud con
veyed te Liverpool, whero he was pi iced
ou beard the Circassi.i mid landed in
Terente. There he was placed in the iu iu iu
sauowardefahospit.il. He was dually
released, and weut te Buffalo five weeks
age.
On Monday he came te New Yerk te try
te get back tj Ireland. Tuesday he
weut te the British ousulate aud :isk?d
what communications they had received
from Lsmleu about him. ile was told that
they knew nothing about him. He
went there again aud asked the name et
the person who was publishing blasphem
eus letters against his character.
" They laughed at me." he said, "aud
I then cried : ' Djfeud youiself, I'll loeso
my life for my character,' and fired.1'
Nothing is known abmt Feouey in New

tertaiucd.
