'The Indian Supreme Court says smoking is a necessity to those who have formed the habit, and therefore it is legally right for cigar stores to be open on Sunday." j j Ox Saturday a week two young Philadelphia went down to Dela- ware State and fought a duel. Ex changed shots once. No blood was shed. The trouble was about a 10 pectable lady. A set of men, who are opposed to Grant, threaten that if he. is nomina f ed that they will put an Indepen dent candidate in the field, to defeat him with. They talk of putting CoL A. K. McClure in the field. Don't yon do it, Colonel. Remember, Greeley. Some time ago Senator Don Cam eron delivered an able sj)eech on the question of inter-State commerce, and so convincing have been his ef forts that the Senate Committee has reported in favor of the appointment of a commission to consider upon the enactment of laws to regulate the commerce Iwtween the States. The Senator maintains that the ques tion of freight discrimination can be managed only by an inter-State sys tem. One of the ablest of the Confed erate Generals General Mahone was a light weight man, weighing less than one hundred pounds. He has been elected a United States Senator, and though nominally a IleadjiLster, holds his head level when he talks about Uie past, present, and possible future of Virginia. He pays Virginia has lived long enough under the resolutions of "US, having grown p;xrer year by year, and that the time has come for abandoning the policy of reaction. He hits the nail squarely on the head. More power to his elbow. Jt'orth American. The five hundred preachers who composed the 'Wyoming Methodist Episcopal Conference, while in 6es eion last Thursday, at Scranton, Fa., expressed themselves on the Legis lative Riot Damage Bribery cases as follows : Resolved, In view of the corruptions con nected with the Legislature of the State of Pennsylvania, we, the ministers of the Wy oming Conference, residing in the State, pray the Board of Pardons, the Judfre of the Court and the Governor of the State that the persons lately convicted of bribery and corruption le brought to speedy pun ishment, that their great crime be not con doned and that the Board of Pardons, the Judge of the Court and the Governor be notified of the action of this conference. A xttmbeh of people in tha country are trying to create the impression that the outrageous hazing of the colored cadet, Whittaker, at West Point, was done by himself. The ca det had been beaten, had his ears partly cut oE, and was tied, and bound to the bed in his own room, by the parties who assaulted him. Many are the criticisms that have been awakened into- life by the effort to create the impression tliat the ca det abused himself, particularly on the point of cutting his own ears. Among the keenest criticisms is one from Congressman Harris, of Vir ginia, who says this Whittaker cut ear business at West Point reminds him of a fight in his district, in which one of the combatants had his ear bitten off. He picked it up, threat eningly shook it at his foe, and told him lie would send him to the peni tentiary for niayhem in biting his ear off. The biter sai'J; "You're a liar; yoii bit it off yourself." Hjstohj repeats itself. After the Christian- religion became the reli gion of Rome, after it became the Roman Catholic religion, paintings representing the eventful periods in the life of Christ were placed on the walls in the government and church buildings throughout the length and breadth of the Roman Empire. How history repeats itself may be learned from the question of paintings, cou pled with the fact that an American Congressman has a bill in Congress that provides for the placing of the same kind of paintings that were placed in the public buildings of Rome, in the Capitol at ashington. A dispatch relative to the question Kays: Delegate Downev, of Wyom ing, introduced a bill in the House with the preamble: "Whereas the people of the United States are a Christian people, and firmly believe in God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, etc., etc., re citing the balance of the Apostles' Creed and providing for an appro priation of $500,000 to be expended under the directions of the architect of the Capitol to commemorate in suitable paintings by the great living artists of this century upon the walls of the National Gipitol the birth, life and death of our Savior, Jesus Christ, as told in the four gospels of Mat thew, Mark, Luke and John. Indiana Democrats Indulge in a Negro Hunt. A dispatch on the night of the 15th inst says : The Democracy of Shelby county, Ind., enjoyed an exciting ne gro hunt to-lay. The man who was tihot was the same man who had the presumption to vote in the recent elections, and, when set upon by a gang of Democratic ruffians, attemp ted to defend Lunself. ling morn ing he had some words with a farmer named Wilson, who lives a few miles from Shelbyvilla Wilson, who is a faithful Democrat, immediately went to town and sworo ont a warrant for the negro arrest on a charge of car rying concealed weapons. A Demo cratic justice of the peace placed the warrant in the hands of the leader of the gang which assaulted the negro i on election day. He immediately or ganized an armed posse and started in pursuit The negro, apprehend ing rouble, pecured a double-barreled sbct-gnn, and, taking his carpet-beg, skirted for a safer place. He was soon overtaken, however, by the posse, which fired a broadside at him from revolvers. At the first fire he threw up his hands, Baying, "My God! I'm shot !" The brave pursuers fired several more shots at the man, and then secured him and brought him back to Shelbyville in triumph. A bullet had entered his thigh, inflict ing a severe wound. He was locked np in jail on a charge of carrying concealed weapons with intent to commit murder. a'bill To authorize and direct the Comrcia sioner of Agriculture to attend, in persou or by deputy, the Interna tional Sheep and Wool Sbow, to be held in the Centennial Buildings, Fairinouot Park, Philadelphia, in September, Anno Dooiini eighteen hundred and eighty, and to make a full and complete report of the same, and for other purposes.

A Shocking Accident- A dispatch from Harrisbnrg, last Thursday, savs : Just as the men on the night turn at the Pennsylvania Steel Works, up at Steel ton, were quitting work this morning, an acci dent occurred which seriously injur ed nine men, two fatally. As one of the big converters, containing six tons of molten steel, was being low ered, it dropped suddenly, scattering the hot metal all over the workmen. J. B. Martin, the foreman of the turn, and Daniel Daylor, employed in the pit, saw the converter swing and xan out of the way, at the same time call ing to the others, but they were too late. It was all the work of an in stant, and the first intimation the other hands in different parts of the mill had of the accident was on hear ing the cries and shrieks of the men who were covered with the red hot metaL The scene that ensued beg gars description. The hose was turned on some of the men who were lying othe edge of the pit. power less to rise, with their clothing in flames and the blistering metal burn ing into their flesh, and willing hands lifted the unfortunates and carried them to the engine house. There were nine of them hurt, of whom George Yost and Albert A. "West brook were fatally burned, the form er's clothing being one mass of flame. Westbrook lay on the edge of the pit, burning, when the water from the hose was played on him. Yost died at noon and Westbrook a little later. WITHIN the past few years certain parts of Berks and Chester counties have been troubled by frequent and bold robberies. Lately the robbers have been so emboldened as to write iin'CQd letters to parties who were see kit)" 'heir arrest, tbreatenitg ven geance tnej r not left alone, to pursue their i2:ie7Dg and plundering work. But the enu b come, as may be learned from a reccni dispatch from Reading, which says : Lewis Robinson, a young farmer Honeybrook, Chester county, the son of a wealthy land holder, was arrested a few days ago and held in $1,000 bail to answer the charge of being the Ieider of the bold gang of robbers operating in that section this spring. In youcg Kobioson s bouse two large wagon loads of plunder were captured. It was also alleged that he shipped to the New York markets tons of stolen poultry and pro duce. Lap robes, blankets, harness, wearing apparel, silver-ware, farming utensils, guus, pistols, and many valu able household articles were captured in the culprit's bouse. Many of tbem were marked with their owners' names. Young Robinson acknowledged bis guilt. A valuable silk dress pattern led to the discovery of the criminal It was made np and worn by his wife, and subsequently she sent it to a dress maker to have it altered. Here it was recognized as the property of another. The young wife did not kDOw it Lad been stolen. The arrest caused great excitement among the rich farmers of tbat section. It is expected that the entire band of robbers will be arrested in a few days. STATE ITEMS.

Superstition, Fanaticism, the Cause of the Horrid Sacrifice. rFAere it Wat Done In India, In Bur. mah. Late dispatches by way of London bring the news that the 700 human beings sacrificed by King Tbeebau at the Burmese capital to propitiate evil spirits were not burned to death, but were buried alive. The full depth of this borror probably will not be fata owed until English correspondents reach Mandalay, but it is now known tbat 700 men. boys, women, girls, priests and foreigners bav been en tombed under the towers of the city walls. A Rangoon correspondent of the London Daily -i etc gives tbe fol lowing explanation of the massacres : "When a city is built in Burmah human sacrifices are offeied up. A new mon arch usually has a new capital. The evil spirits are irritated that there baa been no change of capital, and the vir tue of tbe old sacrifice being gone, to appease them tbe astrologers declared it was necessary to offer np seven hun dred lives. The sacrifices were made by tbe order of King Tbeebau." This tremendous outburst of fanaticism has caused a terrible panic, not only in Mandalay, but throughout Burmah, aud hundreds are seeking safety in flight. Tbe scene of this extraordinary out rage is a country uf Farther India. Burmah lies just north of Siain, and is bounded on tbe east by China and on tbe west by British India, both the Brit ish and the Chinese having materially reduced the area which tbe Empire oc cupied in the days of its greatest pros perity. It is a fertile country, and especially rich in metals and in getns. Tbe inhabitants, whose number is esti mated at about tour millions, are Mon golians, with a monosyllable language, a quiet, industrious and not uncultiva ted race, very skillful in ship-building in carving and working iu metals. Most of tbein profess the religion of Buddba, to which a great number of temples and pagodas are dedicated, and in connec tion with which there exists an elabo rate mouastio system, with a multitude of monks. Tbe eovernmeut of tbe conntry, as may be inferred from the recent uei foruiances, is an absolute despotism of the worst Oriental type Tbe late King, Mindone Min, was i villainous old scoundrel with half a hun dred wives and more than a hundred children, who was supposed to bave dose a good thing for bis conntry which be had never been accused of doing before when be died, some time in le73. Tbe exact date of his death cannot be given, from tbe tact that a cheerful edi.tl had been issued to tbe effect that whoever said the Kin-; was dead should bare bis tongue cut oat, and the courtiers were naturally a lit tle modest about making tbe anoounce menu He did die, however, and the Ministry, or whatever corresponds to a Ministry tu iSurmab, thought they saw an opportunity to iuttodnce a constitu tional monarchy. With this end in view they selected one of the King's yonnger sons, a likely youth called Tbeebau, and in tbe King's name issuod a proclamation declaring htin Am bbay Min, or Dweller in the Eastern House, a title equivalent to heir apparent. Tbeebau was at this time aboat twen ty years old. He is described as a tall, well-built, comely young fallow, with smooth olive complexion, a good fore head, clear, steady, bright black eyes, a farm but pleasant mouth, a full, sensual chin and "a will all bis own." Of this last quality the ycuog King soon gave uumistakable proof. To begin with, tbe reforming Ministers who bad ad vanecd him to tbe throne were shut up tn prison and tbe King formed a .Minis try of bis own, composed mainly of youths of bis own age, who bad a right royal time in tbe palace, wbicb became, as it is described, the scene of orgies conducted absoiutsly without restraint Recognizing, however, that be bad title to tbe throne, Tbeebau proceeded to get rid of possible rivals by the simple plan of killing all his relatives. There were a great many of them, for his father bad left thirty-seven of his wives and fifty-nine of bis children living, and tbeir massacre, a year or two ago, attracted tbe attention of the whole world, and was tbe occasion of some ineffectual diplomatic '-representations" on tbe part of Great Britain. The de scriptions given of this bloodthirsty performance are most revolting. At first the victims were led from tbe:r cells in twos and threes to thekho to tbe King ; then tbeir beads were tied to tbeir respective fairs of ankles, and blows with a heavy club on the backs of their necks ended tbeir misery. But i;s soon proved too mild a spectacle for lie 5 eDdish malignity of Tbeebau. One of hk titer brothers professed ut ter scorn for what rould be done to bim, and was flogged to dei'h. Another, who bad looked upon tbe foreigners as tbe dirt beneath his feet and a. uiferly unworthy to crawl between beaten uoi earth, was tauted and driven to mad ness before receiving a half-fatal blow and bis writhing body was then thrown into tbe gigantic trench dug to receive the dead. A former Governor of Ran goon bad bis nose and mouth filled with gunpowder, a match was applied, and be was also flung into tbe tieucb, to be stifled by toe succeeding bodies. Oue young girl of sixteen was pitched into the same heaving grave after having suffered every outrage which could be devised by eight soldiers of the guard One princess was cut in two, and her husband was called to see his wife and child before be died. Tbe massacre was carried on in this leisurely fashion uutil Tbcbau and the executioners wearied of the spurt ; then tbe women were simply battered over the head ana tue children were swung against tne palace walls. This being accomplished, King Tbee- oau settled down to business as an Ori ental despot upon a grand scale. He spent money furiously, and to provide a royal revenue be devised a system of lotteries, of which bis Ministers were the managers, and they were given to understand tbat they must get plenty of subscriptions if they expected to retain tbe royal pleasure. This result ed in the nse of force by them to in duce investments, and tbe community beeame so demoralized that trade stop ped, drawings were held even on the oobonays, or old-fashioned sacred days, and Damayona a pi tee of worship and prayer was selected and used as a lot tery office. Meanwhile tbe King was going iron oaa to worse. A corres pondent wbo visited him t year ago dy- scribed his face as puffed and bloated, bis eyes sunken and dead, and bis whole physiognomy repulsive and unwhole some, giving prophecy of bis early death. Last week the report came tbat Ibis young beast had taken the small pox and died. Yesterday it was said tbat be bad tbe leprosy and tbat the propitiatory sacrifice be bad ordered was designed for tbe benefit of bis health.- To-day a new explanation is given and there is no intimation con cerning tbe King's health or whether he is alive or dead. It should be men tioned iu this connection tbat, in spite of bis heroic measures, three or four of bis brother escaped into India, where tbey bave been under tbe pro tection of the Anglo-Indian Govern ment, and it is not inconceivable tbat the present disturbances may bave something to do with tbe question of succession. As was seen in tbe case of tbe former King, tbe Burmese are a little timid about announcing a royal demise. Tbe obscurity of the inform ation from Burmah, however, is suffi ciently accounted for by the fact that King Tbeebau, at the time he was kill ing off his relatives, threatened to ex terminate all foreigners as well, and the English residents were with some diffi- euliy brought away in a gunboat. There thus remains nobody at Mandalay to forward tbe news, and all that we can learn must be in tbe shape of scatter ing reports picked np from fugitives wbo bave made tbeir way to Rangoon or other poiuts in British India. LTSCIIED. A dispatch from Petersburg, Vir ginia, under date of April 13, says James Black, the negro who attempted an outrage ou tbe person of Mrs. Hat tie Ferris, near Ford's Depot, in Din widdle county, on tbe third of tbe pres ent month, was taken from jail at tbe Dinwiddle Court-bouse, between niue and ten o'clock last nigbt by an armed body of seventy-five masked men, and banged to the gallows near tbe jail, tbe same on which Jack rieasanU, the ne gro murderer, was executed two years ago. After completing their wort the murderers left for their homes without being recognised by the jailor, who was knocked dowu by tbem before surren dericg the keys to tbe cell in which tsiack was conbned. Ibis morning Black's body was swinging from the gallows, and viewed by a large crowd ot persons. Mrs. Ferris is a northern lady, having moved from New fork to Dinwiddle county some twelve months ago. When assaulted she was search ing for ber cows, which bad strayed a eooMderable distanee from ber farm. Mr. Ferris made tbe best defence Bbe could, dealing tbe negro sundry blows upon the bead witb a heavy iron bolt, but it was not until ber screams attract ed the presence of a number of school girls that tbe culprit fled before accom plishing bis purpose. After scouring the woous toro davs, Black was captur ed by a large force ot armed men. near tbe scene of the attempted outrage, and taken to Dinwiddie county court-house for safe keepin. He was to bave been arraigned for trial at tbe county court next week. Black was about twenty five yoars of age, and formerly owued by Dr. 1. P. Reese, of Dinwiddie oonotv. Some two years ago be was sent to tbe penitentiary for burglary Tbe lynching was done very quietly and completed in five minutes. The Coatsville, Chester county. Pa., limes of the lotii inst., says: On Monday night of hist week, three burglars entered the residence of Geo. Sehlomridge, a Dunkard farmer, who resides in Earl township, about one nnle southeast of ew Holland. llie entrance was euected turuiuru a cellar window, and the clumsy oper ations of tha burglars aroused the imnates of the bouse, consisting of Mr. Sehlomridge and his sister, who hastily got their ciothes and descend ed to the lower story. The burglars in the meantime had gained the first floor, and hearing the faiuny stirring above, cooly waited for them, and as M. Seldomridgo and his sister step ped into the tuning room, they were seized by the marauders, wbo pre sented pistols to their heads and cau tioned tbem against raising an alarm, under penalty of death. Mr. Sel' domridge took tbe surprise very coollv, and asked the burglars what they were after. They informed him that they understood he had Consid erable monev in the house, and they wanted it They then spoke of bind ing and gagging Mr. Seldomridgo s sister, and leaving her in the room below, while tliey went above for the cash. This Mr. Seldomrid;e per suaded them not to do, saying they could leave one of their men in charge of the woman, and he himself would conduct the other two upstairs, and give them all the money he had in the house. At tnis juncture the dis guise oi one of the robbers (tliey were all masked) became disarranged, and he hastily left the house, leaving one mnn in charge of Mr. S. and the other with his sister. The robber with Mr. S. led him np stairs, and, t,tr iking a match, lit a caudle standing upo'.n a table in Mr. Seldom ridge's sleeping" ro?m. He was then given thirty-six dollars; which Mr. S. as sured him was nli ths money he had in the house. The robber was then conducted to the lower story and; parted from Mr. S. in this maiilief : I "Good bye, Oeorge, you old fraud, the next time we visit yon, see that you have more stuff about yon." Mr. Seldomridge has no suspicion as to who the robbers were. STATE ITEMS. Kits stole a Berks county man's false teeth. The pine forosta of Elk county swarm with rata.
