A STRANGE AFFAIR.

We find the following in the New York Trbune:
The dreadful suicide Of james J. BertrOm, on Fri
day last in Kngsessng has caused considerable SEN
saon among his numerous friends. 1t is said that
only few days previous 10 his death he made will
bequeathing about 81 900 to his friend Jenkins,
who, at the time Of the suicide, was engaged in dig
ging his grave! 1t certainly-was one Of the most
strange and unaccountable self murders ever perpe-
traed and the deceased apparently happy land
in the enjoyment of all earthly comforts!
The following receipt was found upon the person
of poor Bertram:
"Received OF C. c. Jenkins five dollars for my
carcase. when the inquest shall have been held by

not TO be relied upon While at the North their votes

into the support of Mr. Van Buren-at the sop,h
these very votes are explained away and apoouised
for. AS we learn from the New York American, Tho
Washington Globe(Mr Van Burcn's organ) declares
that these votes were given merely out of respect IN

doubtless tho sentiments prevailing among the friends

We copy from them:

for medical and manufacturing purposes, OF mtoxica-
ting liquors in al the in this State which shall
not, in town melting warned for that purpose, pass

grant license for the sale Of intoxicating liquors in
such town, and setting forth the reasons therefor
Petitions for this purpose TO be prepared s. cir

BY Committee
Resolved, That this society recommend the paper
Of the American Temperance Union for patronage in
this state.
BY Committee, amended by Mr. Slade-
Whereas the law is powerless without the fidelity Of
those who inrusted with its execution, and the
evils OF intcmperance are Of n most terrible and
appalling magnitude, therefore
Received, Tint there rests upon the States Attor
MES and Grand Juries, peculiar and fearful pom
sbility for the prosecution Of violations Of the laws
restraining the sale Of Intoxicating liquors, and that
the friends Of Temperance have light TO expect from
them prompt and fearless discharge Of this drty,
and bound themselves TO exercise the wake
fu vigilance 10 aid in bringing offenders to JUS
tice.
By Mr. Marsh Of Brandon
Resolved That the ultimate Triumph Of the Tenn
perance enterprise be expected 70 long
lis pruessed friends involved in the guilt Of SELL
ing intoxicating liquors.
Resolved, that magistrates who appreciate, judges
who license, and legislators who enact sanction
continue in force, and temperance societies who APP
prove, any law licensing the sale of intoxicating Iiq-
nors ms beverage are equally and directly involved
in this guilt.
The next annual meeting is to be holden in Chelsea,
on the I'd Wednesday Of Jan. 1915.
From the report of statistics from 50 towns in this
state, and an estimate based on this we gather the
following:

for attempt to kill Henry S Ballard, merchant,
by stabbing him while the stoop of the Astor
House. Under false preterbe, Ballard had seduced
and ruined the girl and refused to fulfill his promi-
ses, and the victim of his depravi,y sought revenge in
this manner The New York papers in reference TO
this trial, say:
The trial was brought to close Friday
ing-and we learn from the New York papers that
'the whole day had been occupied by the counsel in
summing up. The Recorder made his charge to
the jury Mt about nine oclocka fair charge, though
with leaning against the prisoner the technical
grounds Of law. lie instructed the jury not TO
gard what the counsel for the defence had said to
them in paliaton Of the prisoners ofence-not TO
consider any of the allegations made respecting the
conduct of AR Northumberland it had been his duty
TO rule out all the evidence offered on these points
but of course he could make the jury forget all
these things, lie instructed them that if they be-
lieved the act to he done under sudden and strong
element They might acqnit; as this would away the
averment OF intent 10 kill main. The jury took
him at his word and in ten minutes came back with
a verdict Of NOT GUILTY; which was received by
the auditors with hearty cheers and expressions of
concurrence nc prisoner tainted, ana Mr. Granan,
her counsel, had to undergo trial of hand sinking

in New York.
This unfortunate female found friends in her mis-.
fortune and destituton--and the public sympathies
strongly enlisted in her favor. She was ate i'd

some distinction in New York, and by Mrs ID. l..

spicuous for a chivurc humanity, and whose pres

Or. McCready, to the new home humanely offered
