How Calico la "Protected."
If the people consider seriously the bur
den which they have long been carrying
for the benefit of the cotton manufacturers,
they will demand relief from Congress
during its next session. The duties on
cotton goods practically prohibit the im•
portatlon of all kinds of cotton fabrics- and
keep the prices very high, while the Gov
ernment gets no revenue from them.
The duty on printing cloths is five cents,
gold, per square yard. This is equal to
about four and one-third cents currency
for a running yard of cloth twenty-eight
Inches wide. This duty has prevented the
importation of printing cloths for years,
and the manufacturers in' this country are
making about one dollar ou every piece of
cloth which costs not more than $2.50;
about forty per cent. profit. The manu
facture-of cotton goods in this country is
not sufficient to satisfy the demand. The
new mills now building will not produce
goods enough to supply our wants, and
the manufacturers will be able, under the
present tariff, to secure very - large profits
for a long time to come.
The extremely high price of clothe has
rendered the business of printing calicoes
unprofitable, so that while prints are very
high the printers make no money unless
they speculate In oloths, which is always
hazardous, and which they ought never to
do. First class prints ought not to bring
over 106 cents per yard today; but as the
clothmakers take the lion's share of the
profits on account of the tariff, the printer
can make nothing at the present price of
lit cents.
ix it reasonable that the present rate of
duties should be maintained for the benefit
of the spinner -alone, to the great injury of
the printer and at the expense of the public,
not one dollar going into the (iovernment
treasury I—_V. Y. Eve. Post.

The Grand Inquest olthe Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania, empaneled to inquire
into and for the county of Lancaster, at
November Sessions, 1 , 71, respectfully re
port:
That they have acted upon the Se
hills presented to them by the Prosecuting
Attorney, ignoring ti and finding .A; true
bills.
Most of the bills before them were for
crimes of a light grade, many of which
were of so trivial a nature that they should
have been settled by the Aldermen and
Justices of the Peace, thereby lessening the
expense to the county.
his being the last [Orin of tine retiring
Prosecuting Attorney, all tine bills not act
ed upon during his term of office were laid
before us, some of which were of such long
standing that the prosecutors and witnesses
could not be found and the bills had conse
quently to be ignored.
They would also call the attention of the
Honorable Court, to the lack of accommoda
tion for witnesses who are compelled to ap
pear before the Grand Jury. At present all
sexes, ages and conditions are huddled to
gether in the passage ways leading to the
different apartments of the Court. In several
instances the Grand Inquest were detain
ed in the prosecution of their business by
the absence of witnesses, wino, no doubt,
had proper accommodations been provided,
would have been present. They would re
spectfully recommend to the Honorable
Court that suitable rooms, with coats, be
provided for witnesses of each sex.
The Grand Inquest, In the further_pros
ecution of their duties, visited "The Home
for Friendless Children," and found every•
thing connected with the establishment in
perfect order, and the Matron and her As
sistants deserving of highest praise, for the
very efficient manner In which they dis
charge their duties. They desire to make
special mention of the President of the
Board of Female Directors, Mrs. F. J.
Kramph, for her untiring and unselfish
zeal in administering to the wants and
moral training of Its inmates. They re
spectfully request the Com missioners of the
County to take such measure as may be
necessary to supply the Institution with
gas and thus avoid the danger of accidents
which may and frequently do arise from
the use nI They cordially recom
mend the Inatitution to the wall-known
liberality of the citizens of the cbuuty.
They also visited:the County Prison, Alms
house, Hospital and the Department for
the Insane. They found everything con
nected with the County Prison In -good
pro cc. utor,
order, and the inmates comfortable and
well cared for. The keeper, Mr. Mentzer,
discharges the onerous and exacting duties
of his office in a satisfactory and efficient
manner.
The Almshouse, under the management
of the Steward, Mr. Brock, is in good order
and condition, and the inmates appear to be
well taken care of. The Grand Jury would
respectfully suggest to the Directors of the
Poor, the propriety as well as the economy
of devising some system of employment
for the inmates, which would have a ten
dency to reduce their number, and make
the institution in part self-sustaining.
They found the buildings constituting
the Hospital and the Department for the
Insane complete in all their appointments,
cleanliness, order and good management
prevailing throughout.
The insane, under the efficient and hu
mane treatment of the Superintendent, Mr.
Steinhiser, are as comfortable and well
taken care of as their unfortunate condition
will admit M. The Grand Inquest would
greatly regret either the removal or resig
nation of Mr. Steinhiser; and in such an
event, would respectfully suggest that his
successor should be a thorough, experi
enced, practical, and humane physician,
whose residence should be on the
premises, and whose whole time should
be devoted to the inmates, and for
which lie should receive a sufficient
compensation. They would also recom
mend the enlargement of the yard on the
south side of tLe Hospital Building, in or
der to afford the inmates more room for
exercise, and thus conduce to their health
and comfort.
• • • ... .
The Grand Inquest return their thanks
to the retiringErPosecuting Attorney,George
Brubaker, Esq., and his successor, David
P. Bosenwiller, Esq., the Sheriff and the
Honorable Court for, their kindness and
attention.
• • -
The Grand Inquest deeply regret ,that
•is term of Court will probably end the
of connection of the Hon. Henry G.
Long.witb the Courts of Lancaster county;
and they desire to bear their testimony to
the integrity, ability, and learning with
which he has conducted, to the entire satis
faction of the citizens of the county, the ar
duous duties of President Judge of the
Courts for the last twenty years ; and they
sincerely nope there may be many years of
happiness in store Mr him in his retire
ment.
•
In conclusion, the Grand Inquest would
simply add that in the performance of such
duties as devolved upon them, they were
governed solely by their convictions of
right, and by an earnest desire to co-ope
rate with the Court, and under its instruc
tion, for the subserving of the ends of jos.
tire. It would have been unbecoming in
them either as citizens or as a Grand In
quest, to permit outside censure or cum-
Mein, to influence their action in any mat
ter brought before them, for in so doing
they should themselves have become
criminals, and have forfeited respect as the
high conservators of Justice and law. Hav
ing acted under the instructions of the
Court, and under the solemn obligations
administered to them, they need not claim
that protection which is accorded therm nor
seek to interpose any shield between out
side calumny and the honest convictions of
their own consciences.

After the reading of the above report
Judge Long thanked the rand Jury for
the complimentary manner in which they
had been pleased to refer to his official
course ; and said that in taking a retrospec
tive view of his own official conduct during
his long term of office, he felt entirely satis
fied with it, and if errors had been com
mitted they were of the head and not of the
heart. Upon all occasions he had honestly
performed his duties to the best of his
ability.
The 4;rand Jurors wore then iliseharge.l
and Court adjourned.
CONTEMFT OF COL - RT.—An exciting. cene
took place in the Court-room on Thursday
morning about le o'clock. S. H. Reynolds,
Es'f, appeared before the Court and asked
by what right the Prosecuting Attorney,
George Brubaker, had confined in the
prisoner's dock, a defendant who had giv
en bail for his appearance fur trial. Mr.
Brubaker explained that the party de
tained was Peter Hilliard, a colored man,
who had repeatedly failed to answer to his
name when called, and for whose attend
ance process had been issued. He thought
it made no difference to the darkey wheth
er he had a seat in the prisoner's dock, or
in some other part of the Cou rt.room. Mr.
Reynolds retorted that it made as much dif
ference to the darkey as it did to the District-
Attorney, or any other white man. His
confinement was all outrage on his rights
as an American citizen. Judge Long asked
if the defendant's bail had been forfeited,
and on being answered that it had not,
said the defendant could not he held in
custody. Mr. Brubaker responded that if
he was let out he would run away as oilier
clients had done under the advice of Mr.
Reynolds. " You lie," said Mr. Reynolds,
vehemently, at the same time striking Mr.
Brubaker in the face. Mr. Brubaker made
a motion as though he intended to return
the blow; but, checking himself, appealed
to the Court to have Mr. Reynolds arrested
and committed for content pt. Judge
Long ordered the arrest, and the Dep
uty-Sheriff was in the act of making
it, when Mr. Brubaker repeated the charge
that Mr. Reynolds had induced or advised
some of his clients to run away. "You lie,
again," retorted Mr. Reynolds, who then
demanc'ed that Mr. Brubaker also should
be committed for contempt as he had in the
presence of the Court grossly libelled a
Inember of the bar and charged him, With
out a shadow of evidence, with the com
mission of a heinous crime. Judge Long,
apparently bewildered by the suddenness
of the scene, at first ordered Mr. Brubaker
also to be taken into eustody, and then
countermanded the order fur Mr. Reynolds'
arrest, and ordered the issuance, to both
the offenders, of a rule to show cause why
they should tint tie committed• for con
tempt of Court.. When Mr. Brubaker as
certained that he also had to answer Mr
contempt, he said loud enough to be heard
by the Court, "I wish to God I had knock
ed him down." The rule to show cause is
made returnable on Monday next.
Just before 3 o'clock P. M., George Mul
ligan was taken before the Court to i;eceive
his sentence for attempted rape. Mr. Rey
nolde, his counsel, in Panned the Court that
this was the convict whose case had led to
the unfortunate occurrence of this forenoon
—an occurrence which he greatly regretted,
and for which,at the proper time he was pre
pared to make the most ample apology. .
He wished to take this opportunity, how
ever, of asking the prisoner whether he bad
at any time given him the slightest hint to
run away. Mulligan declared that neither
Mr. Reynolds nor anybody else had ever
advised him to run away; nor I.d he hitn
self ever thought of running away ; he was
here to receive his sentence.
On the opening of the Court of Common
Pleas,on Monday morning last,Judge Long
stated that before the transaction of any
other business, the Court would hear the
answers of S. R. Reynolds and (=eo. Bru
baker, Esqs., to the rule to show cause why
they should not answer for contempt of
Court, for their coed act on Thursday last.
r. Reynolds spoke substantially as fol.
lows :
May it /.lease quay Iloaor6: I o obedience
to the rule, which by your direction has
been served on me, I appear before you,
not only for the purpose of "showing cause
why I shall not answer for contempt of
Court for acts done, and remarks made by
me in your presence on the morning of the
':ld inst.," but to offer in befitting language
an apology for doing and saying that which
has offended the majesty of your high of
fice, and outraged those finer feelings which
adorn you as men.
To say that I sincerely regret the oc
currence, that I humbly apologize for
unwittingly committing a contem pt,scarce
ly conveys all I should like to say
on this occasion, and very inadequately
expresses the true extent of my feeling.
I need not tell your Honors, before whom
I have practiced my profession for sixteen
years, (during which time I trust I have
never roll ected discredit upon the Bench or
Bar,) that I intended no tiontempt,and that
I would scorn to do aught to lessen the es—
teem in which I Taney I have ever been
held by you. The courtesy, consideration
and respect I have ever felt proud to ex
tend to, and entertain for you, should in
this case plead like angels trumpet-tongued
in my behalf, against the shadow of such
a thought.
I was counsel for a negro boy for whom
I appeared without fee, or the hope of re
ward. I appeared for him at the instance
of his mother, a good Christian woman,
who for twelve years had lived in my
family, a faithful servant, and who, at
my request, a few days before, left this
town to watch at the bedside of my
aged and sick mother—whose last words
to me were, "look after Peter's case anti
God will bless you." I appreciated the
confidence of that good old woman. I
agreed to defend her boy, and when the
ex-District-Attorney violated his rights,tny
practical sense of humanity was none the
lesa outraged because It happened to be, in
the language of the gentleman, "only a
nigger" who was unlawfully thrust Into
the prisoner's dock. I was indignant. The
rest your Honors know.
It was not boldness of purpose or indif
ference EIS to consequences that impelled
' me to violence; it was an ungovernable
passion that seized the reins of reason and
drove me headlong to be avenged for an in
sult, offered without provocation and ut
tered with a degree of self-possession, and
coolness, only equalled by the ignorance
or wickedness with which it was planned.
I will not discuss the accusation, most
foul, that had not a single fact to support it,
or the shadow of a circumstance to soften
its enormity. I will not tell you how it fell
upon my ears like a clap of thunder from
an unclouded sky—how it pierced my heart
to its innermost quick, dethroning reason
and Judgment, giving to swift instinct its
full &way, which when it acts to defend or
punish, knows no presence and forgets all
law. The poet says, "In instinct God di
rects, in reason man."
Again, if your Honors please, I repeat
that I regret the occasion that has brought
me here, and, if it were in good taste,
I would say that I the more regret
it, because it occurred in the presence
of .the distinguished judge, by whose
perthission, I Brat raised my voice in this
Temple of Justice, and who so soon, fol
lowed by the regrets of the Bar and his
fellow-citizens, will vacate a bench that for
twenty years, through varied and most try
ing scenes, he has honored by his learning,
his wisdom, his virtue and his integrity,
leaving his cast-off ermine, pure and spot
less, a legacy to his sticcixsor,worthy to be
worn.
Believing I have said all that I am re
quired to say in answer to the rule, I sub
mit to your further judgment, and what
ever may be the result, I am proud to say
that I shall always have the consciousness
of having resented an insult to my profes
sional honor, and of having promptly and
fully atoned for a contempt I never in
tended.
Mr. Brubaker spoke as follows:
appear before your Honors this morn
ing, in obedience to a rule served upon me
to show cause why I should not answer for
contempt to Court, for remarks made and
acts done by me on the morning of the 2.1 d
inst.
In the first place, I feel that I owe an
apology to this Honorable Court for any
thing I may inadvertently have said or
done at the time, and in this behalf, I can
most cheerfully say, that during a period
of 17 years, as a member of this bar, the
treatment I received from your Honors,
was that of courteous kindness, and I have
always appreciated that kindness with the
same spirit of respect for your Honors;
consequently, I feel sorry, very sorry in
deed, that this occurrence should have
taken place. In answer to the rule served
upon me, I shall be brief. I have, as your
Honors are aware, been the Prosecuting
Of tsar of the Court forthe past three years,
and during my term of office as such, I
can say that I bade prosecuted no one
through ill-will or malice, neither have I
withheld the prosecution of any one
through fear or favor; and in the discharge
of my official duties, I havealways eudeav
seed to be as courteous and gentlemanly
towards this Honorable Court as well as to
all the members of the Bar as I could be
order the circumstances, front the trouble
some and perplexing duties incumbent
upon rite. Had Mr. Reynolds presented
the ease of his client, Peter Hilyard, iu the
manner which should be observed before
this Court, I should have replied with the
same courtesy, and the Court would have
ordered his release, and here the matter
would have ended. I was not aware, when
I put Hilyard in the prisoner's dock, that
he was Mr. Reynolds' client, but Was told
by some other Attorney, who heard me call
his name, that he Lail canie in and I had
better take care of hint, supposing the one
giving me this information was the Attor
ney defending him, and did not wish hint
to escape. With regard to what I said about ,
Mr. Reynolds, I regret very much so far as
this Honorable Court is concerned—these
remarks were called forth by the manner
in which Mr. Reynolds presented the case
before the Court, and from information
received by me of his conduct in other
eases. The asset/fit and battery committed
upon me, however, I consider unjustifia
ble, as your Honors very well know, that
no words or provocations, however strong,
justifies an assault anti battery outside of
the Court, to say nothing to justify
the disgraceful and cowardly act in
open Court. This Mr. Reynolds knew.
He also very well knew that he had
a legal remedy, if he considered him
self injured by the accusation; or even
if he had intended to settle the matter in
the manner in which he manifested so to
do, he should have had the proper respect '
for the Court and have awaited to settle the
matter outside, and although old enough to
lie his father I can assure hint that that kind
of an adjustment of the matter should have
vest Min nothing so farm I was concerned.
Striking another is an insult no matter
where it happened, and when it is done,
while the person is looking in a different
direction, to say the least is a cowardly and
unmanly art. Hail I seen him strike I
should most certainly have warded off the
blow, and avoided this part of the disgrace
ful oceurrenee. And here permit me to say
that 1 feel the pride of manhood, thatl had
sufficient control over myself not to resent
the blow at the time, and thereby further
disgrace the Court as well as myself. I
have no doubt, however, in doing so I did
that which nineteen out of twenty who
were present and witnessed the transaction
could or would have done tinder similar
circumstances. And to lie honest and can
did to the Court, I did not withhold from
resenting the law because I thought I was
not justifiable in doing so, but because I
had not so far forgot myself as to know that
it was an improper place anti would have
been a gross insult to this Honorable Court.
In conclusion, I have only to say that inas
much as I regret the occurrence, I cannot
see wherein I have said or done anything
against this honorable Court by way of
contempt.
Judge Long said that during his long
term of office he hail had many disagreea
ble duties to perform, but none of them so
disagreeable as the duty devolving upon
aim this morning. Courts of Justice, be
fore they can claim respect for their deci
sions, must insist On being treated with
courtesy and respect by the members of
the Bar—otherwise the cause pf justice is
impaired. The Court is well satisfied with
the general treatment it has received from
the Bar. Hitherto it has received from the
gentlemen now before it, the utmost cour
tesy. But the insult of Thursday—uninten
tional though it may have heed—requires a
proper rebuke. Thereappears to the Court
to be but little difference in the guilt of the
gentlemen in the transaction—one of them
struck the blow ; the other gave the prov
ocation. Judge Long recapitulated the
facts of the Cll-98 as already published in the
INTIMI.IIifiNCER, and concluded by an-
IlOUlleing the order of the Court, which
was, that Messrs. Reynolds and Brubaker
should be tined slli each, the same to be
...lit...Led by the Sheriff.
.1 edge Hayes remarked that he hoped the
no fortunate (Wenn - eon) would prove a sal
mary lesson to the gentlemen of the liar.
So far as he was individually concerned he
had no complaint to make, as his treatment
by the Bar had been unexceptionable; but
lie hoped the present example would bring
about a modification of the treatment of
witnesses. Complaints are frequently
made to the Court that witnesses are not
properly protected against the abuse and
vilification of counsel. 'Morels too much
truth in the eninplaintS and the reprehensi
ble practice should at °nee cease. Abuse
never helps, and no doubt frequently in
jures the cause of those Who resort to it.
The gr. ater the courtesy existing between
members of the liar the more agreeable
would be their official relations with each
other,and the more they would extend their
influence among the public.
Mr. Reynolds at mice stepped up to the
Sheriff's desk and paid his tine.

If l'sßAND's LIABILITY FOR WI FE . S
IMS.—A II action was decided in Phila
delphia, Wednesday, by 'Judge Thayer, in
favor of a husband who had been sued by a
dry-goods firm for the amount of a bill run
up by his wife. Defense set up that de
fondant furnished his wife with an ample
supply of necessaries. In the course of his
charge, Judge Thayer said: "It is a false
and foolish notion for trades-people to en•
tertain that a husband is bound to pay all
bills contracted by his wife. No such mon
strous doctrine is allowed in the law.—
Tradesmen must ascertain the facts and the
true relations of man and wife before al
lowing tho latter to run up bills which he
is looked to to pay." Commenting upon
this exposition of law. which ought to be
more familiar than it is, the Philadelphia
Record thinks, that when tradespeople
come to distinctly understand it, "a very
sensible step will have been accomplished
towards reform in the wanton extravagance
and ruinous folly which, under the mere
tricious impulse of the stupid despot, called,
'fashion,' so wastes the substance, mars the
manners, deforms the persons, degrades
the morals, and wrecks the happiness of
myriad households and individuals, not
only in this community, but throughout
the country."
• SEVERE ACCIDENT.—As Robert Mait

county line, was driving along last week,
his horse took fright when near Pudding
town, turned quickly around, upset the
wagon, and Mr. Maitland was thrown out,
breaking three •f his ribs and an arm, and
also badly bruising him. James Maze, a
gentleman riding with him at the time of
the accident, was fortunate enough to es
cape Injury.

and mutual improvement during the win

proper spirit by the young men of a neigh
borhood. (and it won't hurt some of the
olaer folks to help it along,) cannot fail to
be of great advantage, and aftbrd rational
amusementand recreation for all concerned.
A Huns TURICIP.—Mr. Albert H. Haby,
of Leacock township, has left at our office
a turnip, which measures 34.5 Inches around,
and weighs lbs. One such would make
a respectable meal for a family, and but
few of them would be required to stock the

ANOTHER RAILROAD PROJECT. - The
West Chester Jeffersonian says, there is a
project on foot for the construction of a
railroad from that borough to Oak Hill, In
Lancaster county.
HORRIBLE ACCIDENT.—On last Monday
night, about 1l o'clock, Mr. Thomas Me
guire, of the firm of Maguire ~t; Foust,
Marble Workers, of Glen Rock, York
county, was killed by the Western Ex
press Train, while on his way home. In
company with some friends, he had been
drinking pretty freely, and shortly before
the passing of the train, he left the Cold
Spring Hotel for home, his way laying
along the railroad. This was the last seen
of him until Tuesday morning early, when
the engineer at the car-works found the
body lying beside the track nearly in front
of his marble-yard.
The sight was a most horrible one. The
body was mangled and broken, the whole
breast and abdomen torn away, the head
and face crushed and the brains and en
trails strewn along the track for thirty
feeL The engine must have struck Min
at the street-crossing, and dragged him
about thirty yards. While thus dragged,
the body came in contact with the end of
pile of rails, and was completely ripped
open.
Squire Wertz summoned a jury, and an
inquest was held, which adjourned until
evening to await the arrival of the engi
neer, Mr. George W. Frey, one of the nv-t
competent and airefid men on the road.
He testified that he knew nothing of the
accident until he discovered the blood on
the driving-wheels of his engine, at Har
risburg ; that Maguire could not have
been on the track, but must have been
beside it.. Had he been between the rails,
he would have been seen and saved. The
jury brought in a verdict in accordance
with the facts.
Mr. Maguire was about 43 years old, and
came to this country some years ago trout
Ireland. He served iu the 2nd New York
Heavy Artillery during the late war, as
Captain until Ibi32, when he was promoted
to the position of Major, which office he
filled until 1664, when he resigned. As a
worker in marble, Mr. Maguire had lem
equals; at different times, he worked in
the best yards in the country. During the
war, he unfortunately became addicted to
liquor, which in the end proved his de
struction. He leaves a wife and five cLil
dren—the youngest being but two weeks
old.

FIRE IN COLUNIIIIA.—About !I o'clock on
Tuesday week, a very disastrous tire broke
out iu the building used by the Columbia
Steel and Iron Company. a foundry and
machine shop, adjoining their riffling-mill
on dill street, ill Columbia. The lire
spread to the pattern-house of the compa
ny, and the buildings being frame, they
were soon with their contents, totally con
sumed. By the exertions of the firemen,
the adjoining buildings were saved. The
rolling-mill of the Company was for some
time in great danger. The loss is about
$33,000. insured in the Royal Insurance
Company of Liverpool, England, for $lO,-
000. The fire is supposed to have origina
ted accidentally, as the workmen had only
finished casting about 7 o'clock. The
watchman who should be in and about the
building constantly, certainly could not
have attended to his duty. The loss of all
the patterns belonging to the mill Cannot
soon be replaced.
WASHINGTON Boaciumf.—While other
villages throughout the county are maul
resting, an interest in intellectual culture,
by the formation of literary societies, this
ancient borough is by no means indifferent
to the same pursuits. Some four weeks
ago a number of its citizens organized a
society under the name of " The Washing
ton Literary Association," and weekly
meetings have been held ever since. On
Monday evening their subject for debate
drew a full house. It was on the some
what hackneyed " Woman's Rights" ques
tion, and the different disputants acquitted
themselves with considerable ability. The
decision of the presiding officer was given
in favor of "dimity." The modesty of
the intellectual athletes who participated
in the discussion, will not permit the pub•
lication of their names, but so well are
they satistied with their own forensic per
formances, that they promise us many
similar exhibitions of their prowess dur
ing the edming Winter.
Smam.•Po.x.—Lancaster has not been, :1.4
yet, afflicted by that loathsome and disa
greeable disease, the small pox, which has
during the present season created quite a
panic in some of our neighboring towns
and cities. As vaccination is a certain pre
ventative of the disease, and as all condi
tions of people can avail themselves of it
with very trilling inconvenience and ex
pense, it seems strange that any should
neglect to do so, and thus run the risk ot
severe sickness, disfigured features, and
perhaps death.
The London Lancet, which is considered
high authority iu medical matters, says
that if a small pox patient be, in the begin
ning of thT3 attack, put iu a room from
which absolutely all light is excluded save
that of a candle, the street Is to arrest the
disease in the papular or vesicular stage;
the skin between the vesicles is never in
flamed or swollen; the large scabs of mat
ter never form over the face ; there is no
intense pain, and only trifling itching, and
the smell is either very slight or altogether
wanting.
