The Massachusetts .Supreme Court has
just made a notable decision in a suit insti
tuted by a stone-cutter to recover a certain
sum of money—ssoo—levied as a fine by
the trade union to which he belonged, for
cutting stone in a manner contrary to the
rules of the union. The court ruled that
the demand was illegal, and that a combi
nation and threat to prevent workmen from
being employed was an illegal conspiracy.
This is certainly consonant with equity and
common sense, and a few more such decis
ions would convince lawless men that they
cannot resort to terrorism in order to influ
ence fellow-lalmrers and employers.

A Protection Against Icebergs.
It is well known that icebergs cool the wa
ter around them to a considerable distance.
An American gentleman named Dion lias
made this fact the foundation of an inven
tion to protoot vessels against collision with
icebergs. He proposes to place on the bot
tom of steamers or other vessels an appa
ratus so arranged as to sound an alarm on
the instant a ship's keel enters a stratum of
cold water.
[From the Sunday Times.]
TARDY'S LAST VICTIM.
Every one has heard of Tardy the Pirate,
in his (lay little less renowned than was
Captain Kidd in his own. He, with a
dozen of his fiendish crew, was hanged
near Norfolk. Virginia; and it was his
boast, even when under the gibbet, tltat he
had killed and caused the deaths of more
than six hundred persons. His favorite
mode of putting to death those whom he
captured, was by making them "walk the
plank," as it was called—a refinement of
cruelty in which ho took great delight. A
long plank was placed over the side of the
vessel, one end resting upon the deck.
The victim, a weight attached to his
body, was made to walk very slowly up
this plank, until approaching the far
ther end, it gradually yielded beneath his
weight, and he was precipitated into the
sea. Thus would Tardy make a ship's
crew, passengers and all, follow each other
to a watery grave; and he asserted that he
had found this, of all modes of death, pro
ductive of the greatest mental agony—de
claring that he himself would rather be
hung than compelled to "walk the plank."
Tlie skull of Tardy was long in possession
of my uncle, Dr. Archer, army physician,
and at tho time of the pirate's execution
post-aurgaon at Fortress Monroe. Con
nected with the skull, he would relate a
curious incident, which always inspired us
children with great horror and disgust.
The bodies of the pirates were, by order
of government, to be left hanging in chains,
but my uncle obtained permission to take
possession of Tardy's head, as a curious
phrenological specimen—the organ of de
structivencss, with others corresponding,
presenting an unusual development. This
head, for the greater facility of clearing
the flesh from the skull, he directed one of
the hospital assistants to boil down in an
old cauldron used for such purposes.
The man placed this vessel, containing
the head, on the kitchen tire, and being
called away directed an invalid soldier to
watch it, replying to the latter's inquiry,
"Gh, it's venison broth for the officers'
ward; so don't let anybody meddle with
it." Tlie soldier, however, had a conva
lescent's appetite, and as the supposed soup
sent forth a most savory odor, he could not
resist the temptation to taste of it. It was
good soup, he thought, rich, and with a
peculiar relishing flavor; so the poor fellow
tilled himself a tin-can full, seasoned il,
and partook of it with great relish, con
gratulating himself upon once in his life
feasting upon venison broth, and picking
out the floating morsels of meat as a
special luxury.
Just as he was swallowing the last
spoonful the man who had left him in
charge returned, and his hoirified exclama
tion of—"I'll be hanged if he hasn't been
eating Tardy's head !" awoke the unfortu
nate culprit to a perception of the truth.
He rose, staggering |' rom his seat, and fair
ly swooned away with the horror of the
discovery. This was followed by a deadly
nausea which nothing could alleviate, and
after some hours of intense suffering, the
name of the poor fellow, which hod just
been stricken off the sick list, was entered
upon that of the dead ! "Tardy's last vic
tim," the soldiers thereafter called him.
I ieneral Joseph E. Johnston, the Rebel
Massena, is said to be in better health than
ever before since the campaign in (jeorgia.
He acquits himself loyally, and dues noth
ing to discourage the efforts of the Govern
ment to traoquilize the country.

Yesterday, aiidllmc We Spent ll — The
Ilitnliiii/lon House—West I'oint — Our lie
litni.---Rushing al '2:40 speed through a
country covered with a luxuriant second
growth of liinlicr, tlie iron horse of Ihe
York River mail carried us on our way to
waril West I'oint. We passed several
larije fields of small corn, and a great many
patches of sickly-looking oats.
At Fish Haul, we saw evidence of thrift in
the shape of a farm well cultivated, line
growing crops, new huildings and fences ;
the land well ditched, which selves the dou
ble purpose of conveying off surface water
and chills. Knough such settlers as the one
here, will "make the land blossom as the
rose," and what Virginia ought to lie.
On the way, one of our party lost a nice
linen hat, and authorizes us to say that if
the finder thereof will return it to the
JOURNAL office he Will receive the thanks
of a "Christian." Upon the right of the
road about four or live miles from our des
tination, we came into view of a marsh,
stretching away into the distance as far as
the eye could reach ; it was beautiful to
look upon, but contains cjiills enough to
supply two a day to each person in ihe
country for four thousand years, allowing
one hundred and fifty inhabitants to each
square acre of land. Armed at our desti
nation we disembarked, and wended our
way across a marsh where excavation had
been made for the foundation of a bridge,
in lieu of which we crossed the ditch upon
three railroad ties, laid side by
side. A short walk brought us to the
Huntington House, which is presided over
by Mr. K. W. Massey, who is a prince of
good fellows, and knows how lo keep a hotel —
a sufficient recommendation to the travel*
ing public of America. After ridding our
selves of some of the dirt and cinders, of
which our engine furnished a constant anil
unlimited supply, we started out for a
stroll around the place. The town consists
of about twenty houses scattered about on
a dozen different streets. We should never
have suspected the town of having but two
streets had we not seen a map of the place
at the hotel; said map represented thirty
eight streets, numbered from one to twenty
four, and across the town lettered from A
to L ; the length of the streets appeared to
vary from about ten yards to three-fourths
of a mile. The old liiirying-plaee, wherein
repose the ashes of some of Virginia's
bravest, is sadly neglected, tin- fences all
down, and the ground grown up with
weeds. We saw several Virginia pine
rooters plying their trade therein. The
most desirable looking property in the
place, consisting of store and dwelling,
newly repaired and wViitewashed, was
labelled "For Sale." We did not wonder
thereat, for West Point must certainly be
a desirable place to emigrateyVota. A real
estate agent taking advantage of there being
a crowd there, was trying to sell build
j ing lots, but met with poor success. lie
tiring to the hotel to dinner, wo did ample
justice to the viands set before us, which
were served up in Massey's liest style.
After dinner we took a stroll around the
hotel grounds which are ample and splen
didly shaded—one portion of which was
occupied by a platform upon which the
younger and some of the older members of
the party were tripping the light fantastic toe
to tne music of a French fiddle and two vio
lins. We noticed one of our party had his lady
at his left as they took their place in a cotil
lon. We didn't stay to see how he man
aged to get through the figures. In the
garden connected with the establishment,
were an abundance of fruit and vegetables.
On the whole every thing connected with the
Huntington House, seemed to be in a pros
perous condition. At 8 o'clock, we started
lor the depot, when a smart shower catch
ing us on the way there, and some of us
without umbrellas, our plumage was some
what dampened, but not our ardor. The
trip home was enlivened by songs and jokes,
and all seemed well pleased with their trip
to West Point. The ladies of the party
complained of the want of lights on the
train, there lieing but one, and that the lamp
of the conductor. Evtry pain having its
pleasure, a rare opportunity was given the
sentimental portion to breathe words of
love into willing ears, without having to
hide (he blush upon the cheeks. Altogether
the day was happily spent, and the entire
party returned satisfied with the efforts of
Capt. liragg and Mr. Massey, which ren
dered the excursion a success.
For ourselves, and those connected with
our paper, we have returned our thanks for
courtesies shown us, in a series of resolu
tions, which we publish elsewhere.
A Row al the Monumental Hotel. —A few
evenings since, a gentleman occupy ing room
No. lU, at the Monumental Hotel, hearing
that a gentleman from Petersburg was in
the city, who had given him cause of offence,
sent tlie Petersburg gentleman word that he
desired to see him at his room, for the pur
pose of settling their diliiculty.
'I'he gentleman from Petersburg, not hav
ing the fear of the Monumental boarder
before hint, accommodated himself lo his
wishes, by repairing immediately to the
room as requested.
Words soon led to quarrels, wherejipon
Monumental determined to close the matter
by shooting Petersburg. Drawing a pistol
he attempted to carry into execution his
design, when it was ascertained that I'eters
tltt didn't .scare" wotf a cuss," and instead
fleeing the wrath to come, snatched the
tol, and after throwing it out the window,
proceeded to administer to Monumental a
severe castigation. Muscle was brought
into requisition, and by its use and that of
a pitcher, Monumental was soon put hors
du-combat. Petersburg quietly left the
room, leaving his would-be slayer in the
hands of-a sui-geon, who properly dressed
his wounds. As the gentlemen are first
class, we are not satisfied that the matter
will rest here. Petersburg has returned
home, leaving Monumental a sorer, sadder
and wiser man.
Pic-Xic. — A large number of people,
both white and colored, assembled yester
day in the grove on the lands of W. J.
Waldrop, in Henrico, for the purpose of
having a pic-nic. A liberal supply of eata
bles was prepared, at the expense of the
township anil county officers of Henrico.
The meeting was addressed by H. A. At
kinson, Commonwealth's Attorney for
Henrico ; Mr. Kennedy Kobinson, Maj. S.
A. Anable, of Henrico, and L, N. Peter
son, ol this city.- The best of feeling pre

An Incident u-il/i n Moral.—A few days
ago, in company with n friend from a dis
tant city, who desired to see Richmond and
such objects of interest as could he visited
during the limits of an after dinner ramble,
we wai.':cd through Hollywood Cemetery,
wlieiT 1 mid leafy shade or blooming parterre,
lies all that is mortal of grave and gay,
old and young, strong and weak, brave and
timid—their resting places marked by
"storied urn, or animated bust," the
carefully planted and affectionately tended
shrub or flower, or the boquet of gathered
blossoms, whose fading beauties speak
more plainly than words, the same inevi
table doom awaits thee, wav-faivr, that has
overtaken the slumberer beneath, and is
rapidly transforming out' lovely tints and
fragrance into blackness and decay.
We examined with interest the "Cud's
Acre," in the centre of which stands the Mo
niorialjpyramid marking "the bivouac of Ihe
dead" who fell in their effort to uphold the
"Lost Cause." Whatever we may think
of the act, they were brave, and we will
concede, conscientious. May the turf lie
green that covers their narrow cells, and the
time not far distant when the only evidence
of the late struggle will be such carefully
kept but '''silent camps."
Attracted by the panoramic and remark
ably beautiful view from flic bluff which
overlooks the canal, we left the cemetery
by the foot-path wickel, and wended our
way along the upper bank of the canal,
crossing that LsVßXan water course at the
Tredegar works bridge.
Two barges were discharging cai-goes of
iron at the works, for smelting purposes,
and the diameter of these cargoes struck
as most forcibly in connection wilh the
scenes we had just left, and especially the
Memorial cemetery. Round shot and shell,
condemned as ordnance stores, were being
thrown into the Trediigar Works ; not pro
pelled by "villainous saltpetre," but by
the muscles of freemen; not for the pur
pose of destruction, hut of reconstruction.
I'he words of the inspired prophet seemed
to be written upon every ball and shell as
il rolled over the gunwale on ils way to the
melting furnace: "They shall beat their
swonls into ploughshares, and their spears
into priming hooks ; nation shall not lift up
sword against nation, neither shall they
learn war any more."
How appropriate Would be the lines of
the Roman poet, cast as a motto upon the
appliances of peace, manufactured from
theso useless missiles of war: "Pax me
CtHa ilucis placiilos enrracit. m ttsus i Ayri
co/ie nunc sum; militis anlefui,'' which may
be rendered: "Sweet peace has transformed
me ; I was once the properly of a soldier,
and am now the property* of the husband
man." As the Tredegar works played so
important a part in furnishing munitions of
war, and is now equally, anil more happily,
active in furnishing implements of peace,
the inscription of the above quoted lines
over the entrance gate would be pertinent
and appropriate.
Truly "peace hath her victories not less
renowned than war;'' and her victories
bring happiness, prosperity, blessings to
all: while grim visaged war brings laurels,
perhaps, but laurels stained with blood;
and if flowers are planted in its path, as in
the Memorial cemetery, they are planted in
anguish, and watered with tlie tears of gen
tle pity or wild despair.
Fiyhts ai Ilattorf's. —We regret to learn
that a number of disgraceful fights occurred
yesterday evening al llaltorf's (iarden,
thereby marring the pleasures of the pic
nic given by the Iron Moulders' Associa
tion. Whiskey and outside roughs are said
to have been the original cause of the dis
turbances. A number of noses were J
smashed and eyes bunged. 'I'he police!
were powerless to quell the row. We re
gret that such pleasures are so frequently
disturbed; but it is just as we have said,
that it is impossible tor Americans or Irish
to get together and drink whiskey without
kicking up a row. dive us now and
always, the good-humored and good-na
tured Germans, who can enjoy in a rational
manner such festivities, but their good na
ture must never be mistaken for want of
pluck, as they have shown themselves in
war the best lighters of the age. They are
a sensible people; when they go for fun,
they get it, as clever people should do.

Man Drowned. —Yesterday morning, al
an early hour, the body of Patrick O'Hara,
an employee of the New York and Rich
mond Granite Company, was found floating
in the canal above the three-mile locks, lie
was employed by the company .as a quarry
man at their quarry near where his body
was found, and it is supposed that he was
drowned while crossing the canal. His
fellow-workmen state that on Monday he
was at work, but complained of being sick,
and they think he attenqited to cross the
canal in a can.ie, on his way home, and hy
some means fell out, as the canoe was found
near the place where the body was dis
covered. The deceased whs about twenty
four years of age, was a native of Ireland,
and had been in the United States some six
or seven years.and si \ months in Richmond.
He leaves a wife an'l one child.
Sent to Jail. —Yesterday morning Lillie
Bennett and llettie Anderson, women of
bad repute, were brought up before the
police court on a charge of stealing a gold
watch and $26 in currency from Joseph
Roberts. After hearing all the testimony
the Police Justice decided that the charge
so far as Lillie Bennett was concerned had
not been sustained ; but that it had in the
case of Bettie Anderson. He therefore
sentenced her to jail for three months.
Lizzie Griffin alias Hardeman, who was
charged with receiving the watch, knowing
it to have been stolen, was also adjudged
guilty, and sent to keep Bettie Anderson
company for the same length of time.
Mrlroloyical. —Mr. 0. C. Vincent, of this
city, has contracted with the President of
the Smithsonian Institute at Washington to
take observations and forward meteorologi
cal reports to the Institute front this city.
Hialtli/ Ini/iorttiut Meetinij. -We are au

Executive Committee of the State Central
Committee of Virginia, Samuel I. Mmldox,
Esq., Secretary of the latter, has issued :i
call, convening the members of the Execu

United States Courl-rnoin, in this city.
Capt. Maddox will notify the different
members of the State Central Committee,
and request that they nicet in this city on

Executive Committee which will call a
meeting of the State Central Committee.
The object of the call is to confer as to the
policy to be adopted by the Republican
patty of the Slate, in the next fall cam
paign. Other matters of interest will be

Steamer for tit,; years
ago, tobacco raised in thecountry surround
ing Milford, now a station on the Richmond
and Potomac Railroad, was shipped ly
small boats down the Maltaponi river to
Dunkirk and front thence direct lo Europe,
Railroad and other facilities having stopped
this means of shipment, the country lying
along the upper .Mnttapniii has been, for
years, deprived of necessary facilities for
shipping the various supplies raised along
ils banks. Recently, Cast, Myers, of King
and Queen, associated with himself a num
ber of gentlemen who propose building
a steamer to ply this river as high up as
Dunkirk, and even further if practicable,
for the accommodation of persons living on
it, and to offer cheap transportation for the
large quantity of truck raised in that seclion.
They propose building a steamer to cost
$20,000, and have succeeded already in
raising near that amount. So much stock
has been subscribed as to render the enter
prise a success. This effort will be bailed

complain at present of the high rates of
freight and their unaecessibility to market.
We wish the gentlemen success in this and
any similar efforts to build up tho waste
places of the State.
Effects of Yesterday. —Numerous head
aches, sore feet, mashed noses, bunged
eyes, and red-hot coppers, are some of the j
results of the Ith of July, visible in our
city this morning.
Chose who remained at home and worked,
complain of the heat of yesterday, while
those who avoided it, by rusticating, many
of them complain of the heat to-day, inter
nal and infernal, rendered so by bad ruin.
\V c have none of these sort of complaints to
make ourselves being a friend of temper
ance, as all can testily who saw us yester
day. Our pleasures consisted in the recol
lection that we were an American citizen
and a Virginian, with the ability and will to
lay aside all sectional feelings, thereby cele
brating heartily the day upon which was
bom to this country, American Independ
ence. Long may she wave, and the sacred
day nevermore marred by sectional strive.
May the day live always green in the
memory of the people, and may the time
soon cinne when these of our own section
can heartily unite in ils celebration as they
did before the late unhappy strife.
heft Hehiw/.— 'Sot remembering that
like time and tide, railroads wait for no
man, a gentleman accompanying some
laidics on the excursion train to West
Point, and who is free from the vice of
taking too much, yesterday, after securing
seals ibr his ladies, on the train to return
to Richmond, stepped aside, we presume,
to drink the health of mine host of the
Huntington, when, to his astonishment,
and without due notice, the train moved
orf, leaving him behind. He vainly at
tempted to catch up, for as he ran fast, the
train ran faster, lie ceased the race after
a time, leaving the ladies to the care of
others oi' the party, and himself to blow
over being left. A pair of black eyes,
which proposed to remain at the Point,
may hate been the cause of the event; if
so, the gentleman played his cards with
success.
Henrico County Court. —In this court to
day, the counsel for White, who was on
Saturday tried and his punishment ascer
tained to be eight months in the State's
prison, moved for a new trial. This mo
tion was overruled, They then moved to
suspend judgment on the ground that there
was no State's prison in this State. The
judge here slated that he would hold this
motion under advisement for a few days,
and remanded the prisoner back to jail.
The case of Joseph Kersey was then called
up for trial, but owing to the absence of
important witnesses lor tlie defence, was
continued until the next term. 'I'he judge
said that ho would admit Kersey to bail in
the sum of s2,l)IIO. The court then ad
journed until to-morrow at 11 o'clock.
A muijitijit ■< ut sight was presented the
beholder after the shower last evening.
The whole canopy of the western heavens
were lit up with gorgeous clouds of gold
and purple, intermixed with the most ex
quisite sky of azuline blue, whilst far
away, stretching from the east to the north
west, was a splendid rainbow. The scene
lasted about half an hour, and was viewed
with admiration by hundreds of observant
citizens. It was the sky called "Italian,?'
of which poets sin;; and painters vainly
attempt to imitate.
Home Kitterpri.ie.- -Franklin Davis it Co.,
nurserymen of this city, have recently re
ceived and Ailed an order for more than live
thousand dollars' worth of fruit trees from
one party at the North. This speaks well
for our country, and_looks cheering for the
future success aud prosperity of Southern
enterprises, where they are properly man
aged. This enterprising firm realized the
handsome sum of fifteen thousand dollars
from the sale of strawberries alone last
Mason. Sin-cess, we say, lo all such laud
able efforts.
On a ri.til to Hollywood Cemetery, yes
terday, we noticed in the rear of a private
residence on Pine street, a United Stales
flag flying in the breeze. The house is oc
cupied by that social, hospitable, genial
gentleman, Mr. ('barley Thompson. We
made for him, and beam the Declaration of
Independence delivered in fine style by one
our city officials, The " day we celebrate"
\\a; partaken of by a select lew. 11 pon Ihe
whole, Charley is all right upon the goose
question.
Broke Her Ann. —A colored woman by
the name of Sarah Haines, living on Fif
teenth street, broke her left arm just above
the elbow on Sunday night while scuttling
with a friend. 111. West was called in on
Monday morning, and set the fractured limb.
We' would call the attention of the ('ily
Council to the very peculiar lasle of Hie

season of the year cannot be taken to pre
serve the present healthful condition of our
city.
