A like peoalty Is im? posed upon persons Interfering with the ope? rations ol coal mtolog. -A.. remarkable wedding recently took place lb Baltimore, Md. The bridegroom was Jesse WfeUppercu, whose name bas figured somewhat prominently before the pabilo dur? ing toe past winter. Nearly a year ago he < ?as arrested on suspicion ol having caused ] the death of his aunt by shooting her. Cir? cumstantial evidence, lt was said, pointed him out distinctly as the murderer, and the sus? picions which were at first entertained re? garding his guilt gradually became strength? ened into belief as evidence was accumu? lated. Tue prisoner was Indicted for murder and put upon trial for his life. Tbe evidence brought out was almost entirely of a circum? stantial character, and after a trial of unpre? cedented length the case was given to the Jury, the prevailing belief being that he would be lound guilty. The Jury consulted to? gether for a long lime, but were unable to agree upon a verdict, and were finally dis? charged. In February, another trial was had, lasting a still greater length of time, and finally resulting lu the prisoner's acquittal. All during the two long trials, a young lady possessed of uuusual attractions, and occupy? ing a high social position in Baltimore, was observed watching the proceedings day by day, and, when the prisoner was acquitted, she fainted away in the court-room. A few days since, the lady became Mrs. Uppercu, and, beside the relatives of the bride and bridegroom at the wedding ceremonies, there were present the Judge who bad presided at the court, and the counsel both for the de? fence ancfthe prosecution. ? Tbe Consumption of Fertilixers. The following table shows the quantity of | fertilizers, in tons, shipped over Ihe South Carolina Railroad, from Charleston, daring the past four seasons : * 1870. 1871. 1872. 1873. January. 7,027 3,816' 7 234 8,832 February.10,351 4,809 8,354 10,295 March, r.11,425 6.763 9,925 13,719 Total.29,803 14,188 25,613 32,846 Add shipments In November and December of . previous years, 815 1,636 778 4,139 Grand total, tons.30,648 15,824 26,291 36,986 j The shipments In November and December, of 1869, are added to the shipments of 1870; those of November and December, 1870, to the shipments of 1871, and so on, inasmuch as these belong to the business season la which they are Included. During tho seasoo of 1870-71, a large quantity of fe rtllizera were shipped in ex? cess of the consumption, and remained in depot to meet, in part, the demand of the following year. This bad its influence in diminishing the shipments of 1871-72, which showed a falling off of nearly fifty per cent. The next year there was an increase of j some seventy-five per cent., and the pres* ent season shows aa lacrease of tweoty per cent, upoa the shipments of 1869-70, in wh ich year the shipments were far ia excess of anything that had before been heard of, or dreamed of. Nor is this the only start? ling feature of the present season. The sup? ply of fertilizers is not nearly equal to the demand. Factories are running night and day. Railroad lines and depots are blocked, and can take no more. Yet the orders pour la, and the farmers frantically cry for Fertil? izers. . There is no doubt, in our mind, that the actual consumption of fertilizers this year is at least twenty-rive per cent, ia excess of the consumption of 1870. The probable effect1 pf this upoa the cotton crop of 1873-74, with favorable seasons, each planter or fac? tor must estimate for himself. An Ul Wind. There Is one very practical view whicb may be taken of the decision of the United States Supreme Court confirming the judgment of the State Sopreme Court, that the bills of the Bank of the State of South Carolina are not receivable in payment of taxes. Tbe general belief was that the Federal Court would reverse the decision of the State Court, and this opinion was shared by the Slate officials themselves. Eat the uncertainty of the law receives another illustration, and the good folk who expected to make small fortunes by selling at eighty or ninety what bills they bought at twenty or thirty, find themselves in possession of bundles of soiled paper which seem to have now no other element of value than their possible sharing in the assets of the bank, when prior claims are satisfied and the assets are distributed. The decision of tbe Supreme Court ls, of course, final, and to the people, at large, the decision ls a relief from as much taxation, or increased debt, as would have covered the amount of bills in existence. They would have tamed ap in every nook and corner; no safe would have been without its bondie. The Columbia Herald estimates that at least two million dollars of the bills are out? standing. As soon as these were declared to be receivable for taxes they would have poured into the treasury; those who bought the bills at a discount would save that dis? count in paying their tax. To tbe few Who hold the bills, or could buy them, this would have been a grent gain. Tbegeneral public would have beea the losers. Bank of the State bills will not carry on the government and defray its expenses, and every dollar of bills paid into the treasury would have had to be met, In a lump or by instalments, by a j corresponding increase in tbe rate of taxa? tion. Think or Ul To lill next year tbe hole caused by the substitution of bank bills for greenbacks, an additional tax of about one and one fifth per cent, would have been necessary. Tbk< would have brought up the total tax to two and three-quarters or ibree per cent A provision for receiving the bills by instalments would only postpone the evil day. Every dollar io bank bills which went Into the treasury must have been met by an added dollar of tax or public debt. It is an ill wind that blows nobody good. The dabblers in bills of the Bank lose heavily, no doubt, but the people escape the j payment of two million dollars or more. The Property of Married Women. The Legislature of Kentucky has passed a law providing that a woman shall not be held responsible for debts contracted by her husband. This Is an evidence of the steady liberalization of opinion on the Woman question. Some years ago the Repcb lean Legislature of South Carolina secured abso? lute protection to the property of married women. It is gratifying to see a Democratic body adopting, even incompletely, the same wise measure. And it is to be boped that other governments will follow the good ex? ample. It is ia England that women have been most exposed to oppression. There the law gave the husband ualimlted control over bis wife's property or earnings. The lower classes Butlered more severely from thin, as tbey were DOC likely to meei with that forbearance which ' -upper-teodora" could hope to receive. But even in Eng? land protection is now afforded to property acquired after the wife has been deserted by her husband. A law has further been sug? gested of a "limited liability" partnership io marriage, which approaches the American idea of justice. ? true wife wou'd gladly give? all she QWDB to eave her husband from the conse? quences of misfortune, or of an ?rror repent? ed of too late, lt ls simply her duty to make any sacrifice for that purpose. But where the generosity of a woman only lends fuel to the flames, it becomes a higher duty to refuse ihe means of reckless waste, io order lo save her husband when he can no longer help himseir. She who thus denies him the opportunity of inflicting hopeless poverty on herself or ber children is more nobie than the wife who weakly yields, and afterwards deplores her loss. Tho late concessions on the part of law? makers, recognizing the necessity of pro? tecting the interests of the weaker sex, prove that the true doctrine of Woman's Bights-the right of doing as she will with her own-is obtaiuing favor among men. It is certain that women have the power in their own banda, and if they desire a, wider field they have ooly to prove themselves capable of filling worthily that to which they are DOW confioed. Short Weight. Io reply to a correspondent on Edisto Island, we beg leave to say that lhere is no public weigher of fertilizers in Charleston. Where fertilizers fall short of the weight charged tbe consignee, the best course, we presume, is to make application at once to the railroad company, or steamship com? pany, who carried the fertilizer. Their re? ceipt shows the Dumber of full tons received, and for the delivery of which they are re? sponsible. The obtaining of aa exact and specific receipt will often Bave purchasers rauch trouble. The Rights of Strikers. We lately called attention to tbe threat of the leaders of the proposed labor revolt that they would compel every . workingmao to join with them, whether he thought Ihe strike wise or foolish. Such agitators un? derstand Liberty to be the right of A to force B io do whatever A thinks is good for B. They have no comprehension of the broad principle that, so far as his actions affect only bis personal interests, every indi? vidual bas Ihe right to do wbat be pleases. This is well put in the recent decision of a Massachusetts Judge who has committed for trial a horse-shoer who, being on a strike, threatened and assaulted a laborer who :1 fused to join the strike. In the coarse of his decision the judge qwrted the following pas? sage from tbe records of the Supreme Court: "Freedom is the policy ot this conoiry, but freedom does not imply a right io ODO person, either alone or in combination with others, to disturb or annoy another, either directly or Indirectly, In his lawful business or occupa? tion, or to threaten him with annoyance or injury for the sake of compelling him to buy bis peace, or, In the language of the statute, ' with Intent lo extort money or any pecuniary 'advantage whatever, or to compel him to do 'any act against his will.' The acts alleged and proved In this case are peculiarly offen? sive to the tree principles whlcb prevail In thia country, and If such practices could enjoy Im? punity they would tend to establish a tyranny of Irresponsible persons over labor and me? chanical buMness which would be extremely injurious to both." This ls good law and sound sense. The tyranny of Labor, in its injurious cons?? quences, is as indefensible as the tyranny of Capital. It is difficult, perhaps, for a poorly educated man to understand that he must not require his fellows to join him in aa efi'jrt to secure higher wages, wheo be knows perfectly well (bat uoless there is unity of action the attempt most fail. To bira it seems that the man who refuses to strike is responsible for tbe collapse of the strike. It does Dot eater inlo bis head, at first, that the man who declines to leave his work is merely exercising the same freedom ol' ac? tion which ihe striker exercises io leaving his work. The beatings and murders which have taken place in England show bow far meo will go io endeavoring to overawe .heir comrades. AD act bas recently passed io Illinois for the protection of workmen against the violence of over zealous trade-unionists. And a law substantially like that which ob? tains in Massachusetts should be placed on the statute book of every State. The Anthracite Coal Fields. It ia known that the basins containing the an? thracite or hard coal are in Pennsylvania, and confined lo a comparatively small territory. During the last fiscal year over seventeen million tons were mined and sent to market, and lt ls estimated that during the present year more than twenty million tons will be mined and consumed. At this rate of con? sumption the anthracite coal must be rapidly decreasing, and In the same ratio tbe value of the coal lands must be increasing. II. is esti? mated that the large tracts of coal lands re? cently purchased by ihe several Pennsylvania Ballroad Companies will, lo a few years, be worth Ave or ten times as much as they paid per acre for the same. As the anthracite coal lands increase in price, and the coal di? minishes In quantity, the greater will be the value of bituminous coal lands of Pennsylvania and the other States where the soft coal is lo? caled.

The Planet alms to supply "the "want of a live Republican newspaper ID the "First Congressional District."
