More Unwritten Lav.
About a year ago W. S. Kimes shot
and seriously injured Benjamin Hall,
. turnkey of the jail at Parkersburg, W.
Va., Wcause Hall had alienated the
affections oi Mrs. Kimes. Kimes con
fessed and said he regretted that be bad
not killed his victim. Judge Jackson
gave him a sentence of twenty-fonr
hours in jail and a fine of $100 and costs,
and then concurred in a petition signed
by many citizens pleading for the remis
sion of the fine. Governor Atkinson on
August 10th gave notice that he would
remit the fine. The governor said :
"This is a remarkable case. The only
regret in the matter is that Kimes did
not kill Hall. He ought to have done
so. He tried to dp jbq, but bis . pistol
inissed fire. He shot the scoundrel tour
times, but unfortunately did not kill
him. Every man who has a soul in his
body will agree with tne that he ought
to have killed him.
"Hall is still at large. He ought to be
apprehended and imprisoned for life. If
the prosecuting attorney of Wood county
does hia duty he will see that the scoun
drel is prosecuted and imprisoned for
breaking up Kimes' home. I remit this
fine and costs with more pleasure than
-any word the English language furnishes
uie to express. Kimes did what every
man would have done under the circum
stances, except that he should' have
practiced with a revolver or double-barreled
shotgun, so that whet he made
the attempt be would have brought
Hall down.
"A villain like Hall is unfit to live in
a civilized community, I repeat again.
I remit this fine and costs with the
greatest pleasure."
Since Kimes' release he has been em
ployed at Wheeling, going to Parkers
burg occasionally to see -his children.
Hall is living with Mrs. Kimes, and
every visit the husband makes there the
wife endeavors to have the police arrest
him for failure to pay his fine. '
Enormous Power in Sunshine.
A French scientist calculates that in
an average day the sun will pour on two
and a half acres of ground heat which
might he turned into energy equal to
the muscle power of 4163 horses.
M. Mouchot believed that this beat
might be utilized and made to do the
work now done by eteam and electricity.
Be found that by condensing the heat
playing on less than a yard of ground
he could boil two pints of water. By ar
resting sunshine and condensing it,
mall steam engines have been operated
successfully in Paris, but nothing has
yet been done to realize practically the
great hopes of revolutionizing civiliza
tion by using directly the enormous
power which comes to us daily from the
sun. This power is calculated at that of
two hundred and seventeen trillion,
three hundred and sixteen billion horses,
and a thousandth part of 1 per cent of
it would run all the factories the world
will ever need.
He Was Alive.
Soma time ago an officerjof artillery
called upon Sir John Ad ye at Simla for
a certificate of his being alive, as with
out this he had found it impossible to
draw some pay and allowances due to
him. As he seemed to all intents and
purposes lively enough he got what he
wanted, but on examining the docu
ment he remarked: "Oh, I see yon
have dated it August. This is no use.
I have alreatiy sent them in one of this
kind, but they say they. must. have a
certificate stating that I was alive in
July." This, of course, was a different
matter, and demanded circumspection.
However, after consideration, Sir John
gave him one, in which be certified that
to the best of his belief the officer was
alive in the previous month.

OLD NEW YORK MARKETS.
They Did Things Differently in. Town
Three Hundred Years Ago.
It is more than 300 years since the au
thorities of New Amsterdam resolved
"to erect a meat market and cover it
with tiles, to have a block boughtthere
in, and to leave the key with Andries,
the baker, who shall have temporary
charge thereof." This was the pioneer
New York market, established on the
green in what is now Battery park,
and it was resolved by the authorities
of the same time that the cattle should
be hitched "beside the churchyard,
where some stakes were fixed "on Broad
way, a little above Morris street. For
a few years this was the only market
in New York, but the local reformers
Of the time, insisting presumably upon
a change, it was determined to open a
fair or market for the sale of "store and
fat cattle, steers, cows, sheep, goats,
hogs, bucks, and such like," and to that
end stalls were built. This market was
opened on Octofoer 20 of each year, and
was kept open until the last day ol No
vember. Twenty years later a market
was opened on what was called "the
water side," near the bridge which
spanned Wall street, and it was thrown
open to the public on March 24, 1677,
and continued open every Saturday fol
lowing for three years. At the expira
tion of three years market day was
changed to Wednesday, and in 1683 an
other step in advance was taken. There
were three market days in each week
Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. But
the precipitate zeal and energy of the
old Dutch inhabitants could not be re
strained even by the conservative
burgomasters, and so in 1684 it was
ordered that thereafter "fish shall be
brought for sale to the dock opposite
the City hall and may also be sold in
the house that Long Mary formerly
lived in likewise herbs, fruits, roots,
&c." Afterward the Kroadway market
house was-leased out to Henry Cross
ley, a butcher, who stipulated to pay
for it for seven years a rental ox one
pound per annum, and keep it in good
repair.
As the city of New Amsterdam was
at that time somewhat short of funds,
a plan was adopted, which, in these
days,-would never obtain the favor of
the board of estimate and apportion
ment.' It was arranged that each mar
ket should be built and kept in repair
by the neighbors, and at the end of 50
years it was to belong to the city. In
this manner a two-story founding was
erected by the neighbors at the foot of
Broad street. Another was put up on
Hanover square not then Hanover
square and a third at the foot of Maid
en lane. The latter subsequently came
to be known as the Fly market and had
a practical monopoly of the business of
the city on that side of the town until
the establishment by the neighbors of
a market at the foot of Wall street, to
be known as the Meal market. It was
"established exclusively for the sale of
corn and meal," and also "slaves stood
for sale or to be let to hire" at this
point. In 1735 these primitive market
arrangements were done away with and
the present system, since enlarged and
imjproved, superseded it. The city now
receives in a year in market rents $2S5,
000, exclusive of vault rents and market
permits. The whole public revenue
from this source is about $300,000 a
year, and Comptroller Fitch has in
creased it beyond the receipts of any
of hie predecessors. N. Y. Sun.
