scalp hunters oppose the rush of progress it will surely crush them ; if they accept its con- ditions it will befriend and lift them up. Another Foul Murder. Murders are becoming more and more the sensation of the day. In New York and sister cities they are of daily and nightly occurrence. The evil is spreading, and as it spreads {t is assuming grosser and more offensive forms. In the city of Baltimore on the evening of the 2d Mrs, Mary Ann Tampley, aged seventy-two years, was found lying in her house brutally murdered. The old lady, it seems, had been left alone during ‘the absence of her husband and daughter at ithe theatre. The case is as yet involved in some mystery ; but from the fact that some sone thousand two hundred dollars were taken ffrom the house, as well as the jewelry on (Mr. Lampley's person, itis natural to con- ‘elude that plunder was the object which the murderers had in view. When an aged lady eae be left alone for an hour or two in her jown house without running the risk of being fmurdered it is time for us to be ashamed of your civilization. Crime is on the increase fin the midst of us, and it must continue to Mbe so so long as the worst offences against ww can be committed with impunity. Our ws are good enough, What is wanted is e execution of the laws. A few months of rigorous justice and some wholesome exam- ples would do a world of good. When will the reign of law begin and the reign of icense cease? —- Everything Not Salubrious. Minnesota has been claimed as the paradise Yor consumptives, its Winters being especially commended for their salubrity and bracing Yovelineas. According to the St. Paul Despatch, Jhowover, the reality is not quite so rosy, for although, as some say, the air is so dry and re you never feel the cold, and chattering th and shivering bones are a rarity, and though it is a fact that fewer people are zen to death in Minnesota than in any other lorthern State, yet frostbitten toes, noses, gars and faces are fearfully common, The Wespatch avers that one is hardly fashionable ithout some such trophies of the beauties of Minnesota Winter. ‘Tho bitter cold does not and shake a person as in damper climates. Gt stealthily creeps within all defences and mips to the bone without warning.” Ugh! ‘Prospero and his imps pinching the flesh of ome poor pulmonic or rheumatic Caliban can ly inflict torture like this. To continue tthe picture as limned by our spirited Minne- ota artist of the quill :— Riding along with busy thoughts, a quiet, leasurable drowsiness takes possession of body nd mind, the fences grow indistinct, the thoughts jwander, weird fancies come trooping about with tastio the memory fails, and in a con- d dream of wife and home the soul steps out ito oblivion without a pang or-regret. It is gratifying to learn, after this, that the \ehawing out process is painful and not at- tended with such delightful emotions. A Winter residence in Minnesota, we should fudge from the above, is hardly suitable for one afflicted with weak lungs or subject to neute rheumatic twinges, especially if pos- eased of a sensitive imagination and a weak constitution. Governor Washburn’s Inaugural Ad- dress. Having been chosen the second time to fill the Executive chair of the Old Bay State, Governor Washburn has delivered an ex- cellont address to the General Court upon the affairs of the Commonwealth. His financial exhibit informs us that the aggre- gated funded debt of Massachusetts is less than twenty-eight million dollars, it having beon reduced by two millions during the year. He congratulates his constituents upon the near completion of the great bore known as the Hoosac Tunnel, through which Boston expects & profitable current of trade with the West. Labor and wages receive due attention, and the Governor wants statistical light upon this subject, which is bound to stir society and puzzle politicians. Ho also taiks about the new State Prison, which, he says, should be so constructed as to keep the young and less bardened from the demoralizing contact of the incorrigibles, and the fair sex should have @ soparate place of confinement. One of the best suggestions in the speech is that the legi+- lative session should be short. He evidently concurs in the democratic sentiment that as to lawmaking “the government is best which governs least.’’ Congress and the Legislatures of other States might well take the hint about short sessions. Auiicator Learner having become a valua- ble article of commerce the Mobile Register suggests that Northern capitalists interested in the hide and leather trade go South and manu- facture the article, where they can obtain an unfailing supply of the raw material cheap. The principal occupation of the untanned alli- gator in,gthe interior waters of Alabama, Louisiana and Florida, at present, is the crunching of little negro children while under- going their matutinal ablutions. Some of our “Swamp angels’ in the hide and leather line should follow the advice of our Mobile con- temporary, (who is always wakeful as a weasel when anything for the benefit of his section is bruited), go South, and there establish the focus of the alligator leather trade. Intrinsi- cally the alligator himself affords a. ‘fine open- ing’ for the enterprising. Sxcretany Bourwei. has evidently set his heart upon being United States Senator from Massachusetts in place of Vice President Wil- son. This accomplished, and Dr. George B. Loring having been elected President of the State Senate, the road is pretty clear for Gen- eral Butler for the gubernatorial chair of the ~ Old. Rey Steetemnext year. Thus do the ‘busy B's!’ of.thescdalition hive of twenty years ago improve each shining hour. Butler, Bout- well, Banks, Burlingame and Bird! The first two, however, do all the political humming and buzzing for the old hive about these days, An InrernationaL Exutprtion is to be held in Madrid in 1875, when Spain, which has for 80 Many years travelled the downhill road of decay and decline, proposes to show the world what she can still display of art and industry. Her wisest statesmen have seen other nations winning ample profit uy these gatherings of the products of labor and skill from their own and friendly lands, and hope that the Castilian race may receive a healthy impulse from a similar show, and be moved toa re- newal of that spirit of enterprise which in former days made the Spanish name and ooh cmblema of power the weld over. A The Meat GieG CQMGA AR JG NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, JANUAKY 4, 1873—WITH SUPPLEMENT, Drawbacks to Colonial Independence. In discussing the question of colonial inde- pendence the Si. John (N. B.) Globe remarks that there is no doubt that if Canada made up her mind to dissever her relations with England no Englishman would do anything to stop her, and many would be glad to let her go; but, significantly adds the Globe, ‘the present leaders in Canada will not take any steps to make the Dominion independent so long as they can persuade England to guarantee her loans and to create baronets and knights of themselves and their friends.’’ These con- siderations should not have much weight in discussing the question whether or not the Do- minion of Canada shall become a free and in- dependent republic, and, like the United States, take care of her own loans and titles of nobility. It may be here mentioned that at the time of the American Revolution a small party wished to retain titles of rank and the prerogatives of aristocratic and privilegad classes, but the plain republican sentiment overwhelmed the adherents of a mock nobility, and they finally dwindled into country squires and Georgia mojors—an aristocracy that exists to this day. When the Dominion of Canada becomes a republic, as in proper time it surely will, the “almighty dollar” is as likely to bo the ruling element of her people as it is as- serted to be that of her cousins across the St. Lawrence at this time, and all thoughts of a blue-blooded nobility will be sunk into insig- nificance when weighed in the scale against dollars and cents, or pounds, shillings and pence. How Tney Pass Away!—Messrs. A. 8. Willington, Richard Yeadon and William 8. King, late senior proprietors of that old and well-known Southern journal, the Charleston Courier, having passed to ‘‘that bourn whence no traveller returns,” the printing establish- ment is to be sold to settle the estate. We have a list before us of about. fifty journalists of more or less prominence, connected with the American press, who have departed this life within the past year. How they pass away! Tue Foe on tae Rivers, and enveloping New York, Brooklyn, Jersey Cily and Ho- boken, yesterday, was as dense as the oldest inhabitant remembers. It seriously checked and incommoded the morning and evening current of people to and from business and entirely stopped the usual movement of steam- ers and vessels other than ferryboats. Many of these latter, too, ran irregularly, or not at all during some parts of the day. A Hoboken boat got bewildered, it is said, and instead of making her slip on this side discovered “land ahead’ at Jersey City, after a trip of unusual length and hardship. Those citizens who usually boast about the delights of a residence across one or the other river submitted to fate with the best grace they could assume, and joined in the popular wish for rapid transit railways which would enable them to reach an uptown home within reasonable time and snap their fingers at fogs. After yester- day’s experience we aro quite content that London should be the usual home of fog, and that New York should have such a visitor but once or twice a year. Scanprnavian Unrry, which has long been a fond dream of patriotism in the three King- doms of Norway, Sweden and Denmark, and the spring of a great amount of diplomatic labor between the two Cabinets, scems at present in no prospect of becoming a political fact ; but a valuable step has just been taken towards a commercial unity which will have a powerful effect in cementing in friendship all the peoples of the Scandinavian race. It has been arranged that the coinage shall here- atter be uniform. Its basis is to be the gold crown piece, containing the two hundred and fortieth part of a kilogramme of fine gold, di- vided into ten krondalers of one hundred oers each. As this new coinage adopts the decimal division it will be easily reducible into dollars, and its adoption may be counted upon to fa- cilitate intercourse between our own Republic an that teeming northern hive whence we every year receive such a valuable addition to our population. A Bawk Manacer Seytencen.-—William 8, Newton, late Manager of the Chertsey Branch of the London and County Bank, has just been convicted at Old Bailey of embezzling about seven hundred dollars and sentenced to five years’ penal servitude. Such a convic- tion would probably have been found impossi- ble in New York, or if a verdict of guilty should be found in a parallel case here the culprit would contrive some means whereby his money could screen him from the execu- tion of the legal penalty. A Brooxtyn Nursance.—The Brooklyn Board of Health should cause the speedy abatement of the nuisance that has grown out of the recent fire near the foot of Atlantic ave- nue, The fermenting and rotting of the half- burned and water-soaked grain left in the ruins of the burned elevators are attended by & most disagreeable and unhealthy effluvia, the presence of which indicates the seeds of a pes- tilence. The cold weather froze up the nui- | Sance, but with the present thaw the decompo- sition has set in anew and has poisoned the neighborhood with the unwholesome gas, Tae Acctoent m Broap Srnerr Yuster- pay.—About one o'clock yesterday, while a young lad in the employ of Messrs. Osgood & Co., was passing No. 24 Broad street a piece of ice fell from the Mansard roof upon him, inflict- ing mortal injury. This accident but confirms the opinion we expressed a few days ago, that it ought to be the first duty of proprietors, after a snowfall, to have the snow removed from the roofs of their houses, Had our suggestion been taken when given this unfortunate affair would not have happened. It will not sur- prise us to learn that this is but one of many cases which happened yesterday. One such case, however, is enough to convince us that proprietors or their agents should be held re- sponsible for such accidents.

TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALB, ——™ Lonpon, Jan, 3 1873. The London Times in its issue this morning publishes an editorial article upon the subject of the situation which has been produced in the Sandwich Islands, and generally as to what may be the ultimate territorial and governmental position of tne Hawaiian group consequent on the death of His Majesty King Kamehameha the Fifth. The writer in the London Times says the journal must confess “that the Americans will eventually people the Sandwich Islands, which will become a valuable colony between San Francisco and China and Australia.” The Timesreviews the question of annexation by fillbustering as heretofore practised in new countries by great Powers, and doubts the right or propriety of any nation taking possession of the Sandwich Islands in such manner, American Report of King Kamehame- ha’s Death—The Existing Public Situa- tion—A Sovereign Crisis in the Throne Succession, MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Jan, 3, 1873, The Tridune of this city has letters from the Sandwich Islands, dated Honolulu, the 15th ult., describing the situation after the death of King Kamehameha.
