ACQUITTED.-We see in the Beris pa Jour
nal report of the trial of David J. Hoover for an
assault and battery upon John c. Morgan, with
intent to kill. This is the case that was mentioned
some months back. Morgan is from Philadelphia;
he is a married man, and was accused of having
seduced Hooyers sister, girl II years old Hoover,
as soon as he discovered the fact, in great state
of excitement, shot him. The jury acquitted him.
THE FREE Soil TEAM.-Most of our readers
know something of the personal appearance of Mar
tin Van Buren,, but we presume few know anything
of his companion in the Free Soil crusade, Chas. F.
Adams. The Buffalo Courier says: :" Mr.. Adams
is middle-aged man, rather under the medium
size, has a very gentlemanly and prepOssessng APP
pearance, and is not unpleaslng az speaker. Ills
language is well chosen and scholarly, and his de-
livery measured, though easy. He bears striking
resemblance to his father, John Quincy Adams. "
ABuFFALo CAUGHT.-D During the sitting of the
Buffalo Convention the pocket of the Rev. James
Heath, clergyman of the Methodist Protestant
Church at Chagrin Falls, Cayahoga county, Ohio,
was picked and his pocket-book taken, containing
So in money two notes for 1892, and his certificate
of ordination as deacon and elder.
DIscHARGED.-Ca Capt. James Williams, of the
British brig Sally Ann, upon a further hearing on

board the vessel for Demarara.
ALARMING MALADY.-A correspondent Of the
! Albany Evening Journal, writing from Greece,
Chenango county, New York, states that in two
