Hand Jr., n this county, that was burnt some weeks since, was set lire to, and suspi cion rested on a young man named James Masse3, circumstantial evidence pointing directly to him. He has ab sconded for parts unknown. Ho was working on the plantation of Mr. Hand at the time but there had been no pre vious difficulty between them. When Mrs. Hand ran down stairs, down stairs room all ablaze, and threw open the front door, there stood young Mas sey just outside between tho pailings and the gate looking quietly on. She cried to him, "Jim, why don'tyou hol ler fire?" but he said not a word. He was in the habit of sleeping in the house and he told several different tales to different people about coming back from a neighbor's house that night and getting in Mr. Hand's house at the window. And to Mr. Hand when he asked him why he bilked so, he wouldn't open his mouth. The suppo sition is, that having heard Mr. Hand say tho Saturday licforo that he was coming to tho bank in this city for mon ey, that he robbed tho trunk in tho sit ting room before he set fire to the house, as he remarked to one of Mr. Hand's little daughters that night after the fire, Lin, I've got a plenty of money." He is only 13 j ears old, and it is said that since his elopement he has confessed the deed. His father is very much dis tressed and has agreed to rebuild the house so far as ho is able.

His Blackberry wine is so far superior to any I ever saw I would not have known it. Both the berries make a delightful, light, table-wine. 1-e tallied it oil": The following story is told in the inns of court : The iato Chief Justice Maulo had brought before him a poor saihsr charged with bigamy. The sailor plead ed guilty, and, oil being asked if he hud anything to sny why tiie usual sentence should not bo-passed, said: " May it please your lordship, my wife ran away with another iisan ;nd left uie with a family of children whom niy duties as a British sailor hardly enabled i.u to take care f without another wife. What ought I to have done?" "1'iisone.," said his lordship, sternly, " I will tell you what you ( ught to have done you ought to have employed a posse of po lice to pursue that eloping wife and to have established a caso of crim. con against her; you ought then to have gone up to the House of Lords and se cured frDin their lordships a divorce, and then married again. You may say stich a procedure would have cost you five or six hundred pounds, whereas you have not so many peiice. But, sir, that makes no difference. It is my busi uess, sitting here as an English judge, to inform you that this is not a country where there is one law tor tne rich and another for the poor." EST The Methodists in New York, At a meeting of the Methodist preachers the other day iu Xew York city a vexed question arose among them as to the best way for promoting evangelical re .vivals. The Rev. William Corbett was far from believing that mild preaching was the best means of converting souls to God. He is reported in the Xew York Sun to have said : Why do you ignore the fact that hell, damnation, and the devil are means, if rightly applied, that will be instrumental in winning souls to God ? What ! are you spending your time trying to find some new method of salvation? Perhaps you would like to create a new heaven and a new Pullman palace cars to convey damned sinners to heaven. I was never so much astonished as when I heard one of our own number say lhat he seldom used the words hell or damnation in his sermons, but used words more appro priate. Great God ! has it come to this ? A frightened brother here jumped to his seat and requested the speaker not to be so profaae, at which the Rev. Wm. B. Corbett shook his fist and said : Will my friend please mind his own business ? I ask you, brethren, has it '! A come to tins in a preacueis meeting that I be kept Crom saying what I please, and when under the influence of the Holy Ghost: I say preach depravitj', preach hell fire, hot damnation, scorch ing flames, and the devil until the world shall be awakened, j After the adjournment a throng gathered around Brother Corbett, and said that he had done his work well. Two or three accused him of profanity, to whom the reverend gentleman ap plied epithets such as " uncircumcised Fniiistines, " nypocrues, MflMCV Easily made with our Sten- IVlUnLI ed and key-Check Outfit Circulars Free. 30 4w Stafford MTg Co.
