THURSDAY MORNING, JANUARY 17, 1867. State Items. BOBBEE?.-Wo learn that the store of Mr. Al? brecht was broken into on last W dncsday night, and several watches, which had boon placed in tho hands of Mr. E. C. Donaux for repairs, woro stolen. These little sportive raids are getting too common in the town to last much longer. iSoinebodv is apt to get hurt. The Metropolitan Saloon was also subjected to this species of blackmail a short time before, and we have heard of several other attempts to commit burglary lately. It would be woU if people would see that they leave no doors open aftor dark.-Orangeburg limes. We learn that a public meeting will soon be called for the purpose of taking into consideration the erection of a factor, in our District. Tho sooner we put the ball in uiotion tho better. Our readers doubtless read with interest tho abie article on tho subject, published in our last issue.-Ibid. DEATH OF J. BETHUNE GLASS, ESQ.-Our com? munity was shocked yesterday by the announce? ment of the sudden doath, from heart disease, of this esteemed citizen. He was at his placo of bu? siness (Greenville B. B. Depot) as uiual in tho morning, and feeling sonio slight indisp sitiou, yielded to the solicitation of ono of his brother clerks and carno up to town. Whilo seato l m the drug store of Dr. Miot, having a prescription pre? pared, he passed away with scarcely a premonitory mdication of his approaching end. Mr. Glass was in tho prime of lue, and here where his whole lifo had been spent, his unwaver? ing integrity and devotion to business had se oured for hun the highest respect of tho corn ^H?^was one of the few survivors of the "Pal? metto Begiment," having served honorably thro, gh tho war with Mexico; was for many years Post Master of this city, and at the time of his doath .waa agent of the Greenville and Columbia Bail road Company.-Columbia Carolinian. We learn from the Carolina Spartan that Major T 0. P. Vernon nas been appointed by the Gov? ernor, Judge of the District Court for Spartanburg District._ AN OLD ENGLISH CUSTOM REVIVED.-BURIAL OF A SUICIDE AT MIDNIGHT.-The London Morning Star has t following : For the nrst tune within a quarter of a century Norwood Cemete.y was last midnight the scene of the burial of the corpse of a feto de se without Christian rites. The coroner's jury, which last evening at six o'clock found that the commercial clerk William George Williams had committed the crime of self-murder, imposed upon Mr. Sergeant Payne the necessity of issumg his warrant for tho burial of the body by torchlignt between that time and midnight. The last verdict of Jeio de se re? turned at Guy's Hospital was in the case of a per? son that died there twenty years ano; and on that occasion the horrible form of driving a stake into the body was gone through with. The ghastly ceremony was performed in the burial grouud ad s iacent to the hospital, and it is said to have been almost the last instance in which that obsolete barbarism was exercised in London. Lest the tra? dition should be, by any misconception, carried out in the present case, the coroner expressly or . dered that no stake should be used. About nine o'clock last night a common market cart, drawn by au old horse, emerged from the hospital gates. The eud of a deal coinn hung over the tail-board, and the name "Williams." written on it with a piece of chalk, showed that it con? tained the body of the suicide. In tte course of an hour the cart, with its burden, was drawn up on the highway alongsiae a hedge* at Nor.vood. The night watchman at the cemetery waa called, and informed of the business on hand. Tho func? tionaries at the cemetery, were just going to bed, and were completely taken by surprise by the pro? duction of the warrant for an immediate burial so ' late ac night, for a case of the kind had not occur? red tlure for twenty-six years. Mr. Gardiner, the superintendent, sent messengers to tho neighbor? ing public house, and was fort. nate enough to find two graveHligi?ers there. These men were promptly set to work at the southeast corner of the cemetery, beneath some lime trees. When thc grave was deep onough, the cart, which had been left out on the high road, was driven mto the .grounds. The men unceremoniously lifted tho coffin from the cart, and, guided by tho flickering light of the lanterns, carried "it to the roughly made grave. The excavatio i was longer than the coffin, .and at either end 'near the bottom a candle was stuck into the earth, where, screened from the -wind, which blew strongly and whistled through - the creed, they cast a sickly light noon the mellow clay. The coffin was- lowered into its place by means of ropes, the earth was instantly shovelled in and stamped down, the lights were put out, and all was over._ AN EXTBAOBDZKAB; YAUN.-The London Engi ? near, in the course of a discussion of the fervent ? heat with which the elements composing the in? terior of the globe are supposed to be kept in t continual state of fusion, introduces the following story, which has been going the rounds of the French papers, all of which seemed to absorb it with edifying credulity, as worthy tho careful at? tention oz scientific men: "Not far from tho Ea?s of Niagara was a glacier, belonging to a company who realized enormous profits by the salo of the ice -in the Western cities during the summer .months. A fow days later than the Aspinwall ex? plosion, an aurora borealis, of magnificent propor? tions, was obaenred wheeling its shafts, several nights in succession, in tho northern sky, causing two lightning conductors on the top of the glacier ?I) to emit-long electrical flames of a bluish color.' h the meantime a boiling noise was heard inside the glacier, accompanied with a disengagement of gas and occasional loud detonations. A captain of militia ventured to enter an opening in the ice with a light, when the glacier burst with an explo? sion that shook the whole country. Happily no? body, was kill o a except the unfortunate cap.ain, of whom not a trace could be found. The glacier contained 16,000 tons of ice, and after the explo? sion there was a fall of lukewarm water over a . space of 500 yards in diameter. The theory of ' the cause of the explosion, is that the two light . ning conductors on the glacier acted under the in - finance of th ; electricity as the two polos of a vol? taic batt cry, and decomposed the ice into a mixture of oxygen and hydrogen gases, which, of conreo, exploded with resistless power on the introduction of a light."-Rocliester Democrat. A CURIOUS CASE.-An interesting law case pending in the United States Supreme' Court. The Groy Jacket, a vessel built and owned oy ? Tonothy Mealier, of Mobile, Alabama, was cap? tured by a United States vessel and condemned as . - a prize of war. The claim ant now prays tor a re? versal of the decree of court by which tho vessel was condemned and the payment to him of the proceeds of the sale. He claims to have remained loyal to the United States, and alleges that ho was unable to leave the Confederacy until the time of his capture. He states that he built the Grey Jacket and loaded her with cotton for the purpose - of escaping with bis family to a loyal State, and when ne got outside of the port of Mobile gave himself up to a United States vessel and demanded protection. He claims that his vessel cannot be libelled and condemned as a blockade-runner, h?? cense, although she did run tho blockade, it was with no criminal intent, but merely for the pur? pose ofwplacing himself and property under the protection of the United States. Apart from the amount of money involved, which is about three hundred thousand dollars, the points of law which . will be decided are of the nighest importance, r. nd aw looked forward to with great interest by a large number of persons. The principal questions are: First, that of the right of persons to remove property from the South after two years from the beginning of the war: and second, the power of the Secretary of ' the Treasury to remit forfeitures of property cap? tured and condemned un J er the law of war. -.. Still another question-one of fact-is whether Mr. Meaher really surrendered vrilhngly; and fur? thermore, whether, if he could have gone scot-free I of the blockade, he would not have run his vessel ~ into an English port. We opine that the latter -must have been his real destination. ..._[Rochester Democrat. COMMON* SCHOOLS IN MAINE.-The Augusta, Mo., correspondent of the Boston Journal gives some interesting iacts in regard to the. educational progress of Maine. The writer Bays that there is a general anxiety to have access to the latest and best modes of teaching, and there is leaven at work which will yet permeate and enliven tho whole educational system. The normal school at Farmington has now arrived at a point of pro? gress where the mind of the legislature wifi bo called to prepare for a decision as to its perma? nency and ita support. Referring to the proposed normal school at Castine, the superintendent says that if the Legislature shall find that the conditions of the location of the school have been complied with, and shall decide to appropriate the pecu? niary means for carrying ont his d?sign, he tnuiis that these means will be made ample enough to supply the requisite teachers and."the. ordinary needs f.r a promising commepoement. The num? ber of school districts in the Stats ie 3771; num? ber of sohool-houses Forty-four were built last year at a oost af $95,609. The average num? ber- of Bcholars attending schools is 88.74S, of which Penobscot county furnishes 10.336, the largest at .tendance. The average number in attendance during the printer is a7,827, of which Penobscot 'county retains the lead, her scholars numbering 12^40. The aggregate expenditure for school pur poses during the year was $502,598 23. GOULD'S "MEPHISTOPHELES.''-One of the most original pieces of sculpture we have seen in many a day has just been put on exhibition at Snedecor's = Gallery, No. 7C8 Broadway. It is tho production Of Thomas Gould, of Boston, and, in addition to l ita marked originality of characterization, it ex- Mc molts skill of technical execution of the verv hi?-h- Ar est order. The psychological student, no less than K ' toe amateur of art, will find abundant material in Co it for study and admiration. The conception of SS the character is as far removed from the tradi tional types of Betsch and Haulback as the lat? & ( ter are from the nondescript being, with Loots, tail roi and horns, which served as a Satanic bugbear for Cat ao many previous ages. This is emphatically-the Ta ^bodied diablerie of the latest phase of civiliza- J *. tion-the product of the excessive, but one-sided" ?0E culture of the present dav, with its intens? ambition and exclusive worship of intellect, to the ?? neglect of the soul. This Mephistopheles ia no Jd fanraful bugbear, but the very spirit whick is every- Sa Where active-^t tho bar, in the pulpit, in our fi- DuJ etitubonsi of lea.ning. m our legislative assem- Co, bues, in the caucus, m the country house-wher- J?D ever, in fact, the vortex of human passion and on- Kri deavoris deepest and fiercest Manya beholder W1 nfl, doubtless, be able tc trace in this w<.rk tho ii ? hkene.8 of some of his acquaintances in. the va- TM rion? professions and vocations of lifo.
