THE EBESS. THURSDAY MOHMNG* SO, 1871. ITIaiuc Aroused. The Board of Manufactures have now sta ted precisely what the city will be asked to do to promote the revival of business in Port land. Exemption of new manufacturing en terprises from taxation for ten years and the appropriation of a thousand dollars for the payment of the expenses of the board which is to have the immediate charge of the neces sary preliminary work—this is the whole pro- j gramme. To the last proposition we hear some objection; to the first, hardly any. The time is well chosen to exempt manufactures from local taxation, because it will be almost ten years before a new State valuation, in which the exempted property must be em braced, will be taken. The State and county tax levied on this particular kind of property will not, therefore, have to be paid by other persons than its owners more than two or three years before the period of forbearance, limited by law, has expired. Accordingly it may be assumed that the City Council will pass the order embraced in the report of the board, and that in consequence the tenth cen sus will find Portland a much larger and wealthier city than the ninth did. It is not likely that the suspicion of unconstitutionality which hangs over the exemption authorized by the Legislature will materially affect the success of the policy, when we see towns ev ery year taking the much graver and more doubtful step of making direct appropriations from the public funds for the benefit of iudi iriilnol monufonturnc—onil flinn ltorcnoiliiwr the Legislature to legalize the irregular pro ceeding. Portland is by no means alone in a newly awakened interest in manufactures. A dis passionate outsider might say without much exaggeration that Maiue has gone wild on the subject. All our State exchanges discuss the matter with reference to its bearings on their local interests. Judging from their dec larations one would think that every consid erable town from Fort Kent to Calais and to Kittery expects to be “a great manufacturing centre.” In Washington County the talk is all of mammoth tanneries. In Knox and Waldo it is mainly of boot and shoe factories. In Gardiner it is the same. In Augusta and Waterville it is cotton and woolen mills. Bath and Rockland have both voted to ex empt new enterprises irom taxation. Lew iston and Auburn have already a fair start, but they are still pushing things as vigorously as if neither of them had a spindle or a shoe shop. Houlton and Presque Isle antagonis tic in all else, agree for once in asseverating that “we must have manufactres.” It is fitting that the metropolis of Maine should take a conspicuous part in a movement that seems to be general, and that is likely to change the destiny of the State. Care should be taken that an enterprise so vigorously un dertaken does not evaporate in smoke, leav ing its projectors and all whose enthusiasm they have excited more dispirited and hope less than at the start. The character of the men who have taken the thing in hand is such that we have no fear of such a disa# trous result. The Whig mistakes us. We would not suppress the publication of a book simply be cause its pages will prove stupid. Such a course would make a terrible thinning out of libraries, and not only leave a great many writers out of employment but would ruin the publishing business. The Press advo cated the publication of the report, first, to allay further excitement on this topic and further waste of time by future legislatures; second, that those patriotic gentlemen who devoted themselves to the work of “saving the sons of Maine” from the “perilous edge of battle” by substituting paper men instead, shall not be robbed of the glory their due, ana that the “hearty God bless you” prom ised them by that portion of their fellow-citi zens then in jeopardy, shall not fall upon un deserving heads. Because a book of history is dull in its details, shall we forever turn our backs upon the fact that “Uvea of great men all remind u». We con make oar lives sublime Shall we deny these estimable gentlemen, now departing, the privilege and the right, at the expense of a grateful public, of “Leaving (their) footprints on the sands of tqpe?” We rather guess not. The Boston Advertiser having copied from an Ohio paper a statement that Senator Schurz was laboring to unite the German ele ment of the country into a distinctive party and that he had given his influence against Republican candidates in the fall elections, particularly against Gen. Washburn in Wis consin, learns that there is no foundation for the report and makes the correction. Instead of attempting to form a party based upon a race or nationality, Mr. Schurz has repeated ly deprecated such measures, and instead of opposing Mr. Washburn’s election he hearti ly favored it. Will the Argus consult its authority for the assertions in yesterday’s paper attributed to Chief Justice Chase Will it not find that it is Chief Justice Church of the New York Court of Appeals who made the statements attributed to Chief Justice Chase It makes little difference to be sure; but Judge Chase may object to take the place of a Tammany Judge. Political Notes. The Boston Journal does not support the Republican candidate for Mayor in Boston but Mr. Gaston the present incumbent and Democratic nominee. It and the Advertiser have recognized each other as opponents by longer notices than are usually found in papers of the “Hub.” The Boston Post is bitterly hostile to the “passive” or “thumb-sucking policy.” It declares that when the Democracy rally to the support of whoever its opponents choose to nominate, “it stoops to such cowardly subserviency it would merit annihilation for its treachery to every principle that gives it vitality.”__ The Cuban Troubles.—A Washington spe cial says that the State Department Monday evening received advices from Havana that the Spanish authorities were unequal to the task of preserving order in the face of demonstrations by the volunteers in that city, and orders were immediately sent to Key West to despatch the monitor Terror to Havana for the protection of the lives and property of Americans there. The' Nipsic, at Pensacola, was also ordered Tuesday to the same destination, and the Kansas, now at New York and nearly ready for sea, will fol low with all possible speed. The Terror, if she left promptly,should be in Havana harbor by this time. The Spanish Minister in Washington does not regard the troubles as likely tc lead to serious results, and the movements of our vessels have been ordered solely for the protection of Amer ican interests. The Spanish officials have stop ped the regular press dispatches from the island, and it may be a day or two before further in teingenoe is received. there are no new com plications whatever between this and the Span ish government. How to Live to the Age of a Hundred.— Sir Duncan Gibb, in a paper read before the British Association, on Centenarian Longevity, makes some very interesting statements, deriv ed from a comparison of four examples he had seen himself. Of these four, two were one hun dred and three, one one hundred and one, and one one hundred and two years old. Mr Gibb found these peculiarities in their bodily consti tution 1. The lungs performed their functions per fectly in every case. 2. The blood was well circulated by a strong heart to all parts of the body. 3. The chest was well formed and of fair size. The cartilages of the ribs were not ossi fied. 4. The voice was clear, sonorous and power ful, though tremulous in two cases. 5 The heart was healthy, and free from fat ty deposits. 6. The eyes were good, and the sight excel lent in every case, and no sense except hearing was unpaired. 6 ““oked, chewed, or snuffed tobacco, good.lhe min<1 was active, and the memory and tln'‘t<,cti!esuu°"dln eaCh Ca8e WaS cxcellent, out iife had been througli tress. “"ee from care and dis The lesson drawu from that if people wish to live in I?6 i.fses Is this, years they must have sound HI” a hundred care of them.

The Supreme Court of this State has recent-1 ly delivered an opinion in this matter, in the case of the State vs. the P. S. P. Pail road Company, which opinion I propose briefly to re view, as it affects the right of 30,000 citizens of Portland, and 10,000 outside of it, to come and go over Portland Bridge without obstruction, as also the right of citizens over other railroad crossings entering this city. The opinion was delivered by Tapley, J., four other judges con curring, and three dissenting. I quote from the opinion: “This is an indictment against the defendant company for erecting and maintaining a nui sance, by laying and putting down and using certain tracks, with iron rails across and over a highway situate in Portland, about six«.y feet south of the place where the mam track of tanl railroad company crosses said highway. Sec tion 15, of chap. 51, K. S., provides that rail roads may cross highways m the line of the road but ‘the conditions and manner of cross ing are to be first determined in writing by the Countv Commissioners,’ and crossings not so made are to bo regarded as nuisances and may be so treated.’ This statute (upon the provisions of which this indictment was drawn) makes that a nui sance which was not one under any other pro vision of law. Its object was to secure the ac tion of the County Commissioners in certain cases. Want o£ such aetion alone constitutes the nuisance. The track and its use may have none of the elements of a nuisance at common law, or a nuisance as defined by. chap. 17, of the It. S., if this action is wanting, it is under this chapter a nuisance. If this act is not wanting, no matter what the character of the erection or use, it is not under this statute a nuisance. Ill a proceeding under this act it is the material in quiry. To bring the case within the provisions of this statute, it must appear that the railroad crosses in a manner not determined by the County Com missioners. No such allegation appears in the indictment in this case. Without it it is fatal ly defective. It is the material matter, without which the act lias necessarily no more of the element of uuisauce than of assault and batte ry, &c.” We have copied the substantia] part of the UpilllUII, iUlU I1UW H.li UO UAdlUlUU II. rn, J-I1\3 indictment was not drawn under sect, 15, chap. 51, K. S., as stated by the Court, but under chap. 17, defining nuisances. 2d, The Court says the indictment in this case should charge that defendant did not obtain the consent of the County Commissioners to lay tracks, &c., thus requiring the prosecution to allege and .prove a negative. This is contrary to the rules of plead, ing and reason, and law is said to be the per fection of human reason. This was a matter for the defence to plead affirmatively, but in this case defendants never obtained the consent of the County Commissioners to lay the three tracks complained of, and, therefore, could not plead it, and it had no practical bearing in the case, albei t the Court switched off of the main track here, on this side issue, so that the de fendant went through unscathed. But the great error of the court is in assert ing the doctriue that if the county commission ers authoff/.e the laying a railroad track across a public highway, it cannot be a nuisance; and in requiring every indictment vs. a rail road for a nuisance in crossing a public high way to allege that the same was done without the approval of the county commissioners, ac cording to sect. 15, chap. 51, E. S. The action of the county commissioners cannot make that not a nuisance, which 'is a nuisance in itself.— Public highways are coeval with civilization and existed centuries before railroads were dreamed of, and no legislation can deprive them of their material rights, any more tlign the legislature could enact that in a neighborhood where there is one rich man and several poor neighbors, the latter may apply to the county commissioners for leave to divide among them the property of the rich man so as to equalize all in the manner prescribed by said commissioners. Such a law would be unconstitutional and void, because it strikes at the very foundation of society, which should secure to every man the rewards of liis own industry. So in this case, no legislation can deprive a public highway of its inherent rights, as the court asserts. We think the court errs in saying that defen dant could no more be convicted of a nuisance under this indictment than of assault and bat tery. Let us carry out this idea. It is the law that where one person assaults another, the latter may use sufficient violence to repeal the assault it even though he take the life of the assailant,if be necessary,in order to preserve his own. So in the case of this highway, which existed long be fore the P. S. P. railroad was built or thought of. Said railroad struck at this highway three deadly blows in laying down the three tracks com plained of, before this highway raised a hand in self-defense, and yet, by law it may take the life of the assailant, if necessary to preserve its own. It is in itself inanimate lmt really ani mate with the tide of human life which daily ebbs and flows over it. To conclude then, the indictment in this case is good because it charges a nuisance both at common law, and by statute. Said indictment charging that the nuisance here was against the peace of the State, and the form of the statute. Practically speaking, there seems but one prop er way for railroads to enter cities where they cross the public highway, on bridges or with excavation, or tunnels, at such a distance above or below the highway as not to obstruct travel thereon. E. H. T. TlIW 'To A fl'IIV TV A niTAXT A 1_ crimes the Apaches maybe guilty, it is quite ev ident that the Wickenburg stage massacre can not be laid to their charge, as the following let ter just received in Cambridge Mass, from a member of Lieuteuat Wheeler's party, dated November 7tli., proves: Loring, Hammill and Salmon, of Lieutenant Wheeler's party, were on the stage to go home. Besides these, the passengers were a Mr. Kru ger, a German; a Mr. Adams, a jeweler of Pres cott, and “Moll Shepard,” a disreputable char acter. The stage was an open box-wagon, top ped with canvass, with sides to let down; the back being generally down is rsomewliat pro tected, from sight at least, while the front is open to full view. An escort went with them, as usual, through the dangerous country; i. e. as far as Wickenburg. Six miles beyond this place they were suddenly fired into." I do not know how much damage was then done, ex cept that the driver’s arm was broken. Still he drove on some distance, till shot through the head, when the unguided horses turned back towards home and into danger. Kruger and “Moll” were on the back seat, not so easily seen and escaped, except with wounds. Both emptied their pistols and managed to jump out before the horses turned back, and ran on ahead. In a mile or two they met the “buck board’ going the other way. The driver took them on, and, fearful of being followed, turned back. Finally he left them and the mail in the bushes, took a horse, and by a trail reached the Vulture mill, near Wickenburg, got assist ance and returned to the scene of the murder. Two of the victims were found to be shot in the eye, two in the forehead, and one in the back of the head. An old man, with a black beard, who had fought hard, was missing and may have escaped. This man must have been Hammill. Heavy rifle cartridges were found, and their use was probable from the great number of shots fired—there bein'? twenty through the stage. The mail had been opened, and such letters as would contain money examined, and the baggage searched for money. No horses, nor harness, nor guns, nor briglit blankets, nor any such things as Indians covet, were taken. There is no doubt about it; they were not In dians, nor Mexicans, as the shooting was too good; white men did it; “road agents,” as they are technically termed here. They generally simply rob. It was reported that a man was asked some time ago at Wickenburg to rob the stage that brought “Moll Shepard” down, as she would have much money. Kruger also hail much money with him, as he was a government agent of some kind. The murderers did not find the greater part of the latter’s money, and seem to have left precipitately. A French Burglar.—The New York cor respondent of the Boston Post gives the fol lowing adventure of a French burglar, who made an attempt to rob a large jewelry estab lishment in New York city: The interior of Tifiiny Co.’s palace of gold and gems on Union square would be a most at tractive field of operation for the gentry of the jack-screw and jimmy, were it not for the as sumed difficulty of getting in, which until Mon day has been supposed insurmountable. But the fact before which native genius quailed has been valorously attempted by French skill and daring. The building is of iron, closely shut tered and securely barred. The Metropolitan natrol the st.or** mpiv minntr.a aud twenty special watchmen, well armed, are supposed to keep vigil inside. It was this for- tress which Francis Brodie, an ambitious Frenchman, stormed and carried in the early hours of Monday morning. Brodie established his base of operations at the Spiugler House, adjoining Till ally’s, occupying a room on the fourth floor, looking directly upon the mine of 1 jewelry he intended to work. When the morn- 1 mg was gray with fog, Brodie quietly let him self out of the window of his room, climbing t“ coP‘nff the corresponding story of Tiffany’s and getting in at the window with- out losing his head while suspended over the dizzy abyss below. It was a feat which no hon est man could Have accomplished in pursuit of an honorable purpose. Once inside, he slipped on lus shoes and, guided by the snores of the twenty watchmen, descended to the door on which they were reposing. There he commenc ed his work, drst making a selection of line watches aud packing them up for transporta tion. Then, being a man of cultivated taste, j he took a bronze Hebe, carrying tills art treas ure, together with a chronometer clock, to a window on the second door. Again descending, he made an unfortunate stumble, which arous ed the watchmen and caused his retreat up stairs. There, just as he was lowering a ladder by which to make his escape, the patrol below caught sight of him, and between the two lies- tile forces, within and without, he was captur- J ed before he could reach liis room. There are curious developments not yet made public con cerning this singular and daring robbery. Mayor Haul was the subject of the follow- t iug pointed resolutions adopted by the Commit tee of Seventy Tuesday night, to which refer- ence was made in our dispatches: Resolved, That for the purpose of securing i to the people Of this city substantial fmits Jt’ heir victory the recent election over corun- c tmn, this committee propose to use every law 6 fnl effort to secure at the earliest possible mo- e inent, the removal of the present Mayor from 1 the office he holds.

The printary cause ot Consumption Is derangement ot the digestive organs. This derangement produces deficient nutritiou and assimilation. By assimila tion 1 mean toar. process by which the nutriment ot the tood is converted into blood, and thence into the solids of the t ody. Persons wiih digestion tMiaim paired, having the slightest predisposition to pul monary disease, or it they take ccld, will bevtry li able to h ive Consumption o' the Lung* iu son.c ot its forms; and i hold that it will be Impossible to cure anv caseo ‘(Consumption wi to out first restoiinga good digestion aud bealiliy assimilation, l lie very urst tiling to be done is to cleanseihe stoma* li and bowe’s from a'l diseased mucus and shm-i which is logging tlfese organs so that they canuut porionn iheiv func tions, and then rouse tip and restore the liver to a healthy action. Tor this purpose, the surest ai d best remedy is Scbenck’s Mandrake Fil s These Fills cleanse the stomach and bowels 01 all the dead ami morbid slime that, is causing disease ami decay in the whole sys cm. They will clear out the liver ol all diseasttl bile that has accumulate*! there, at.d arouse It up to a new and haty action, by wlii.li iratu.al anti healthy hue is sccre ed. The stomach,bowels and liver ate thus cleansed by the use ol Sell nek’s Mandrake Pills; but there re mains iu the stomach an excess ol acid, the organ is torpid, and the appetite is poor. In the bowels,the lac teals are weak, and require strength and support. It is in a condition like this that bchcnck’a Stawe*d Tonic proves to t*e the most valuable remedy ever discovered, it is alkaline, and iis use wil. neutralize all excess ot acid, making the s munch sweet and iresli; it will give peimanexit tone to tuls impo taut organ, and create a good, hearty appetite, and pre paretbo system for the lirst process ot ago id digestion and ultima ely make good, healthy, living bloxl.— Aitcr thts preparatory tre diueut, what remain* to cure ino:t cases of Consumpiiou is the tree aud per severing use ot Schenck’s Puimonic Sjiup. Tho Pulmonic Syrup nouiishes the system, purifies ttie blood, and is. i e iddy absorbed into the circulation, and then, e distriouied to ilxe disea.-ed .tings. there it ripens ad morbid matiers, whether in tlie form of abscesses or tubercles, and then assists Nature to expel all the diseased matter in the orm of nee ex pectoration, wheu once it ripens. It is then, by the grtat healing and pui itying properties or Schen. k’s Pulmonic S> iup, that alt uliersen I cavities are h- al ei upsouud and my pgtieut is curd. The cPnonHil tliinc tn bfttlflne In cnrttisr <~*n on mo tion is to get up a no d anrf’ile ami a good digestion so ihat the body will grow in flesh ami gee strong.— if a person has diseased lungs, a cavity or abscess there, the cavity cannot heal, il.e matter cannot rip en, so long as the system Is bdow par. Wha* is nec essaty to cure is a new order ot things, a good appe tre, a goid nutrition, die bodv to grow in flesh and get fat; then Na ure is helped, the cavities will heal, the in cider wiil ripen and be thrown ott di 1 .rare qnamities, aud the person regain health aud strength. Tills is the tiue and only pl.t 11 to cure Consumption, ami if a person s very bad, it the lungs aie not en tirely destroyed, or even it one mug is entirely gone, ir there is enough vitality Jen in the other to tisai up there is hope. 1 have seen manv persons cured with only ouo sound lung, live and enjoy life to a good old age. This is what Schenck’s medicines will no to cure Consumpil *n. They wilt c ean out the stomach, sweoteu and s^reugtlen it get up a go;d digestion, aud give Naluie ibe assistance she Leeds to clear the sys cm ot all the disease that is in the lungs, what ever the lorrn miv be. It Is important mat, while using Scbenck’s medi cines, care should be exercised not fo fake co'd: keep iu-ioors in cool and damp weather; av id night air, and take out-door exercise only m a genial anu watm sunshine. I wish it distinctly understood .uat when I recom mend a patient lo be caretut iu regari to taking cold wl.ile using my medicine. 1 do so lor a special rea son. Arnni wllo has but paribdlyhecovt-rei from the eflects of a bad eoM is tar more liable to a relapse than one who has tc*. n entirely cut ed, and it is pre cisely the same ia regard to Consumption So long as the lungs are not perfectly healed, just so Ions is ihere imminent danger ol a mil return ol the dis ease. Hence it is that I so strenuously caution pul monary paiieuts ugtinsc exposing t cm selves to an atmosphere that is not genial aLd pleasant. C n tirmed consumptives’ lungs are a mass ot sores, wuich the least change of atmosphere will inflame. 'The gran i secret o< my success w ith n.y medicines consists in my ability to subdue inflamation instead ol provoking it, as uidny ol the faculty do. An in flamed lung cannot with saiety to the patient, be ex posed to thi bitieg blasts *>t winter ox the coiling winds of spring or autumn. It sho *ld be cate.ully shielded from ail irritating influences. The utmost caution should be observed in tliis particular, as without it a cure under almost ary circumstances is an impo-si bility. i he person should bo kept on a wholesome and nu tritious diet, and alt the medicines continued until the body has rest or. d to it the natural quantity cl flesh and strength. 1 was my ell cured by ibis treatment ot the wor t kind of Consumption and have lived to get .at and hearty these many years.with one lung mostly gone. I have cured thousands siuie, au*l veiy many have been cu ed by this treatment whom 1 have never ■a.'-rn About the first nl October I expect to lake p sses- sioti ot my new bnjUiiugat il»e Bonh-caid corner of Sixth ami Arch strolls, where 1 shall be pleased lo give advice to an who may require it.
