THE MURDER OF CORLIEs.-It will be
seen by our report that the examination be-
fore the Coroner has been closed, the Jury,
after brief absence last evening, returned
verdict that the deceased came to his
known. Mr. and Mrs Cotton were there
upon at once discharged. Nothing in the
voluminous testimony that has been taken
in this protracted case tends to fix suspicion
of guilt upon any person, and the affair re-
mains enveloped in its original mystery
The fact that man may be shot in the
open street at only few steps from the most
crowded thoroughfare in the city, at an hour
when the streets are so generally thronged,
and murderer escape even suspicion of
having done the deed, is certainly some
what alarming. What disclosures time may
evolve, remains to be seen: at present how
ever, the whole affair is in the darkest mys-
terry; and we see no reason why 1t should
not remain so long as the circumstances at
tending the death of Mary Rogers have
been concealed from the public eye.

MERGERS trial for shooting Heberton, is
now going on in Gloucester Co., New Jer-

perpetrated in the ferry boat just before
reaching the Jersey shore.
The TRIAL OF SINGLETON MERCER. FOR
THE MURDER OF HEBRToN, THE SEDUcER.
The case Of Mercer is still proceeding at
Woodbury., New Jersey. Sarah Mercer
was examined on Thursday afternoon. She
gave her testimony with great clearness, but
was frequently interrupted by weeping
Her statements sustained the grounds as
sumed by the opening counsel for defence,
as to Herberton's having accomplished his
purpose by force and threats, as well as up
on the other points. Mrs Mercer testified,
that on returning to her home, her daugh-
ter told her the same thing, and Miss Os-
borne, the young lady in whose company
Miss Mercer first met Heberton, sustained
her testimony as to having mistaken him
tor MIR Bastido ian acquaintance and bis
allowing her to suppose that to be his real
name. N. Y. Tribune.
There can be little doubt that Heberton
may have deserved death, but at the hands
of Justice. The testimony goes to show
that insanity had usurped the empires of rea-
son, as soon as young Mercer became ac-
qualnted with his sisters wrongs-increas-
ed, rather than diminished by the subse-
quent conduct of Heberton. N. H. Sen.
