to go TO my house and see my daughter. He
replied that he wanted to 90 home.
After we got out Of the boat, ! asked him
where he resided in Boston. He said at the
south end. Mr.. Tallant asked him what part
of south end, and he said in Hanover street.
Nj. Tallant said that Hanover-sireet was al
the north end. The prisoner replied--'fes---

he did not tell me that he had been at >Tali's,
but that he had passed by there. ! told him
he had said he had stopped there. A watch
man brought lamp on the platform, by which
we discovered that there was great deal Of
dirt on the prisoners knees, considerably more
than there was about the ankles. II was
pressed on about the caps Of the knees. BY
holding up the lantern 10 his face, we discov-
cred dirt on his right cheek bone, aud the next
morning observed that the skin had been
rubbed off that spot nearly the size Of a quar-
ter of dollar We found side-comb and
the string Of my daughters bonnet where the
assault took place.
Alter we got 10 the house, Mr.. Tallant
went up into my daughters room befnre the
prisoner, and she at once snid--.Mother, that
Is not the man, Then the prisoner came in,
and as soon as she saw him, she put her hands
up TO her face, and excIaimed-'I'lI forgive
him, if God wi.' tried to calm her, and
said she must lock at HIM. She then said
Mother, am afraid oi blows-I am afraid of
blows am afraid Of blowsp She then said
he was the man. While in the chamber, Mr.
Tallant noticed that The skin was broken on
the prisoners knuckces, which was caused,
we supposed, by the blow with which he
knocked her tooth outs
On the cross-examinaion, Mr.. Austin stat
ed it was bright moonlight night, and further,
that The people employed on the railroad have
standing orders to carry lanterns always in the
night, whether the moon be up or not.
Mr.. Austin conceived that this testimony
was sufficiently conclusive for The purpose Of
holding the prisoner TO answer al the Munich
pal Court, and therefore he did not call officer
Talant and the watchmen, whose testimony
would be merely cumulative in confederation. |
And in default Of bail in $4,000, the prisoner
was remanded TO jail. The unexamined wit
nesses were, however, ordered to recognize for
their appearance at the Municipal Court TO
testify in the case.

'The late Doctor Thornton formerly super-

the company died off, until there were oaly
hall dozen left; when one Of them cunning
fellow, Hike Mr.. Tyer,l took an opportunity
to get into the house, where he gravely and
formally read the other five members out Of
the meeting and kept possession as the sole sur
