Tuesday, March V.V, 1S71. Some of our exchanges complain at the long and frequent adjournments mudo by tlio legislature. W'o think the tax payers would not loso very uiucli if both Hous es woro to adjourn lor a year or two. A Um. has been reported in the State Senate, requiring parties intending to marry to enter their intentions in tlio Registers ofliee. accompanied with a feo of ono dollar. This will be a very pretty provision for the Segistur, but not ro agreeable to thoi who have to furnish the dollars. Tlli: President lias appointed, Juhu V. Forney Esq., of the J'rcsn as collector of the I'ort of Philadelphia. Mr. Forney has in his paper expressed himself very strongly against the San Domingo treaty and the removal of Senator Sumner from the Committee on foreign isola tions, and therefore the selection of Mr. Forney for that position rather surprises many. Gov. IIor.UK.v of North Carolina has been on trial charged with, unlawfully raising troops, and illegally arresting cer tain citizens, refusing to obey writs of Habeas Corpus, and defrauding tho State by unlawfully using the monies belonging to it. The trial lasted forty days and re sulted in his impeachment. The Senate then passed judgment on him, deposing him from oflico and disqualifying him from ever again holding any office in the State. Lawlessness has niado such headway in tho state of South Carolina that the Governor has at last been forced to call upon the President for military aid to restore order and protect tho citizens, from outrages committed by tho bands of disguised and armed men that arc nightly disturbing the peace of that Common wealth. Tho President has therefore issued a proclamation dated March 21th, warning these outlaws to disperse and retire to their homes, within 20 days from date of said notice. Failing to do so it is to be hoped that scvero means will be taken to bring them to terms. Trouble, of a most serious kiud, seems to be in store for tho French Na tion. Having succeeded in making pcaco with the Germans, tho French Govern ment is now seriously endangered by a revolution inaugurated by tho dis affected among thoir own people. A large mob has seized the city of Paris, and, at tho last accounts, held it, and even threaten an attack on Verseillcs. So emminent is the danger that the govern ment has niado arrangements to remove to Tours. The German troops have again taken possession of tho forts around Paris, and if the government does not quell the insurection, give notice that they will turn the guns on the city. Should they do so the loss of life would bo terrible. Already many murders have been com mitted by the insurgents, and by many it is feared that the dreadful scenes which were enacted in Fiance toward tho close of the last century, are to bo again visi ted upon tho French nation. Tho news for the next few weeks will bo looked for with much interest. In London every eight minutes, night and day, somebody dies; every five minutes a child is born. This great city contains as many people as the wholo of Scotland, twice as many as Denmark, three times as many as Greece, and 400 times as many as Georgetown, D. C. In its vast population of nearly 4,000,000 it has 140,000 habitual gin-drinkers, 100,000 abandoned women, 10,000 professional gamblers, 60,000 criminals known to tho police as thieves and receives of stolon goods, 500,000 habitual frequenters of public houses, and t0,000 street Arabs. To keep this vast multitude of disorderly characters in something like obedience to tho law, 41,000 policeman are necessary. Of the population of tho city, only about 500,000 attend publio worship, thert being a million of adult absentees from church on every Sunday. 1ST A burglar entered the Old Stone Presbyterian Church, in Augusta county, Vs., 00 the night of the 8d inst., and Htole the pulpit Bible, an heirloom which, for a century or more, had been used by the vonerablo ministry who preached tho Word in that mother church of tho Val ley of Virginia. Had Accident. The llarrisburg State, Journal of tho 21st inst., says. A terrible accident occur red about 8 o'clock lust evening, on tho Pennsylvania railroad, within tho city limits, at Gallagher's switch a short dis tance abovo the round house, which was attended with fatal consequences. Six men were riding on shifting engino No. 43!), which was being backed down from the yards above town, when, without any warning, a collision occurred with the rear end of a freight train standing on the track. Tho iireiuan succeeded in jump ing off the engine without sustaining any injury, nnd the engineer escaped with n few slight scalds. Four brukemen and a conductor, whowero riding on the engine, were less fortunate. They were all severe ly injured by the escaping steam and tho sudden concussion, one, and perhaps two, fatally. AYtu. Callendar, brakeman, a married man, residing on Allison's hill, had both legs broken, and was otherwise severely injured. Ho died n short time after the accident, while being removed to the depot in a car. Edward Yoder, conductor, residing in the lower part of tho city, hud one of his legs broken. He was removed to his resi dence and received every attention. S. Swcger, bnikcnian, had both hands scalded and badly crushed, arm broken, and was injured internally. His death was momentarily expected at 11 o'clock hist evening, the hour we left the injured men. Samuel Caster, brakeman, hud his leg cut below tho knee and thigh bone broken. It is thought amputation will be necessary. The injured men were promptly removed in a car from the scene of the accident to the depot, nnd every effort made to alle viate the sufferings of the survivors. Dr. llulhcrford, the company physician, was summoned aud rendered every med ical and surgical assistance. The coroner was notified, but up to a late hour had not arrived, and we are unable, to give the verdict. A Mystery Cleared I 'p. A Chicago pap r says a man named Gambleton, from New York, but origi nally from Germany, was found dead in the Lake here, in January last. He had boon in poor health, und it was thought that ho had committed suicide, but noth ing could be found of his money, ubotiH nine thousand dollars. A detective learned that he was inti mate with a German who came on from New York with him, and ho has been watched closely ever since. He returned to Germany, when a tolegram was sent to tho Consul ot liremcn to watch him. A desputeh was received yesterday that tho proof was complete and tho man arres ted. It appears ho asked Gambleton to walk in the evening to the Lako shore, whore ho killed him, and dressing himself in Gamblcton's clothes, ho returned to New York, drew out 88,000 in bank, forging Gambleton's name, obtained goods from the depot and storehouse by tho same means, sold the property and re turned to Germany with the proceeds. IIo will bo brought here for trial. Another Terrible Tornado. Tho Lebanon (111.) Chronicle of tho 20th inst., gives an account of a terrific tornado which passed over a portion of St. Clair county last Thursduy night. The storm passed half a milo east of Lcb auon, nnd did great damage. Some 20 farm houses were either blown from their foundations or entirely demolished, and out buildings, fences, and trees destroyed. Miss Watson was instantly killed, Mr. Vermillion fatully injured, and has since died, and his wife not expected to recover. Miss Vermillion's arms and legs were broken, and she was otherwise injured. Sho is not expected to live. Nearly everybody in tho house, destroyed were more or less hurt, several of them danger ously. Some houses, and also persons, were movod from ono to two hundred yards, and trees two to four feet in dium eter broken like pipe-stems. BinUr Two officials letters have beeu re-! ceived at Washington from a member of tho San Domingo Commission, which in dicate very cloarly the political situation, and show the principal difficulty in tho way of tho aucxation of the Island to the United States. So fur as the Com mission have yet boon able to learn, the views of the people are generally 1'uvor able to annexation, but the Haytien endof the island is ultimately opposed to any such step. In fact, to such un extent does this opposition run that it is believed the Haytiens aro actually supporting Ca brul, the revolutionary leader. If we annex San Domingo, we accept with it a war with Hayti. Whether this country is prepared for any expenso of that na ture, after paying for one portiou of the island, remains to be Been when tho ques tion oomes officially before the. Govern ment.

Important Decision. An important case was tried in our Court the past week. It was tho caso of James Williams vs. Jolinsey Ulizzard, being an appeal from Justice Dushey, and was an action on a note under seal given by tho appellant and another to tho appellee, whore the amount of tho nolo was over 100, which placed it beyond tho jurisdiction of the magistrate. Tito plaintiff placed a certain amount of credits on the back of tho noto without tho said credits having actually boon paid to him by tho defendant, for tho purpose of bring ing it within the jurisdiction of the mag istrate by making tho amount claimed less than $100. Tho justice of the peace before whom the case was tried, gave judg ment for amount of the note and interest, less the credits. The defendant appealed from this decision to tho County Court, and upon proof of tho above facts boforo tho Court, (all tho Judges being upon tho bench,) the Court decided that a person could not throw off a portion of a claim so as to bring it within the jurisdiction tffri i i .1 n justice 01 me peace, gnu rcverseu me judgment of the justice below, with costs to the nppclee. This is an important decision to all persons holding notes or other claims amounting to more than $100; for if they throw off a portion of tho noto or claim to bring it within tho jurisdiction of a magistrate, they lay themselves liable to costs. Their proper remedy is to bring a suit in tho County Court. Ihillimore Count L'nion. A I'asc of L'Inlrvoyanee. , A young lady by the numo of Taylor, who has been acting in tho capacity of a hired servant for some time at tho resi dence of Mr. lloyle, at Kelly's station, about two miles west of litre, hns been in what may be termed a state of clairvoy ance since last Thursday. For a day or two previous she had been somewhat adlicted with tho toothachc,and on Thurs day morning tho mistress of the house concluded that sho would let her remain in bod in order, if it were possible, to get a sufficient amount of rest. Some time during tho day a little girl belonging to tho house was sent up stairs to awaken her, but did not succeed in doiug so. The mistress then tried to arouso her by a severe shaking, but her efforts were in vain. This is tho identical young lady who, last fall, was in the sanio condition. Sho docs not partake of any food whatever. Once or twice sho was given a little water, but it was thrown up immediately. Sho lies with her arms folded across her breast, and but seldom speaks when spoken to. On being interrogated in regard to tho other world, she said that she saw tho "placo of endless torment, that the doors were open, and the inmates crying for water." IIow long sho may continue in this condition remains to be seen Pittsburg Lratlr.r. JBeiyOn Sunday a number of boys woro playing on the old gas holder in Fair Haven Con 11., out of use for over a year. The capacity of the holder was about 40,000 feet : but at this time there were only about 4,000 or 5,000 feet of gas in it. John O'Brien, aged fifteen, opened tho man hole, and proposed to light tho gas. One of tho boys warned him of his danger; but O'Brien replied that ho would do it if ho did get killed, lie lighted a match and threw it into tho hole. An explosion followed, causing a shock which was felt all over the city. Young O'Brien was thrown some thirty feet into the air, and fell, striking the heavy iron frame work and then tho top of the holder. He was instantly killed. The holder was tipped toward tho west, and tho body rolled down nearly to tho edge, a stream of blood marking its course. Two spans of the iron frame work were broken and thrown to the ground by the forco of the explosion, the rivets of tho holder were nearly all torn out, and the holder itself was blown into a shapeless muss. The other boys, it is supposed, got out of the way before tho explosion, though fears are entertained that one or two may have been blown into the river. 8ct!rOu tho night of tho 22d inst., George Schmelzcr, proprieter of tho ltoss villo Exchango, Lawreuccburg, Indiana, was awakened about two o'clock, by screams from his wife, followed by there port of a revolver. As soon as ho could reali.o the situation, he hurried to his wife to find her just expiring, from tho effects of the pistol shot, calling loudly for help. Help soon came, but too lute to apprehend tho burglars, who escaped and took with them $100 in money and some valuable household articles. Tho supposition is that the wife hearing a noise arose, and on making the discovery of persons in tho room raised screams, and the robbers killed her to render thoir escape more certain. It is said that the money had just conic into his possession to bo expeuded, and that a uiuu was seen hanging about during the day. No other clue whatever to the perpetrators. A New Orleans merchant, who failed to receive a case of dress patterns consigned to him, mado diligout inquiry, and finally, by means of the receipts giv en by an undertaker, ascertained that it had been received by him and carofully buried with funeral honors, he supposing the box contained the mortal remuins of a mun who had died in another State, and which he was notified would como by the same train, Interesting Facts.

A lady enter ed, and, after sitting down, nestled her littlo slippers in tho straw. On those slippers was a silver buckle. An nged gentleman sitting opposite thought he saw a silver quarter in tho straw, and went for it, but found his mistake when he got hold of her pretty foot. Sho wouldn't stand any such fooling before folks, so sho kicked him in the mouth, knocking out a hundred-dollar set of false teeth, which got lost in tho straw.
