Trial for Murder fourteen years ago.

The trial of John Cook of Fitchburg for muir
dering his wife in 1884, fourteen years since, by
poison, was commenced before the Supreme
Court at Worcester, on Thursday of last week,
and terminated on the Saturday following.
This was rather strange case. The body
was exhumed few months since, and four grains
of arsenic found in the stomach This with 9TH
er circumstances, tended TO fasten suspicion Of
foul play very strongly upon him, SO much so as
to cause his arrest and Imprisonment.
Mrs. Melinda S, Ward, sister of the de-
ceased, testified in substance, that at the time Of
the alleged offence, Cook and her father lived
in seperate families in the same house-that on
Sunday P. NJ, Feb. %, 1884, about A o'clock
she heard Cook go into the cellar and draw cider
from barrel under the room where she was with
her fathers family, taking tea. Shortly after
her sister was taken violently sick while at hel
tea-so sick that she was obliged to leave
the table without finishing her meal. She was
in great distress, with nausea, but was unable tc
vomit. During the night she at times would be
easy with tendency to sleep, and again hel

Rev, Rowland Hill.

Many amusing anecdotes of the eccentric put
pious and useful Rowland Hill, have been told !;
but the following narrated to us by one OF MS
pensioners, is new to us.
It was Mr.. Hills habit to ride to church IN
an old family carriage, practice too aristocrat-
ic, in the judgement of one of his flock, who de-
termned to rebuke it.
1t was customary in his chapel for notes to be
sent to the pulpit, requesting prayers tor various
objects. One Sabbath, Mr.. Hill was proceed
ing with the reading of these requests as usual
when he found himself in the midst OF one OF
the following purport
"Prayers are requested for Rev. Mr.. Hill,
that he may be made more humble and like his
Divine Master, who, instead of riding in car
rage, was content to be borne by an ass"
Having read the notice, he lifted his spec
tacles to his forehead and looking around the
s4EedgDthat it was true he had been
guilty of the fault alleged but if the writer
would step round to the vestry door after service
saddIed and bridled, he would have no oblec-
ton to try to ride home, after the Masters ex-
ample, on the back of an ass.

Capabilities.

Amid the multiplicity of phenomena that
present themselves for our contemplation,
the capacity of man for improvement, for
enjoyment and for doing good, is truly won
derful land should excite our interest and ad.
miration. Man, created in the image of
God, possesses charms that cluster around
angelic natures and talent which can easily
transcend the attainments of former ages,
and stand upon the very summit of excel
lence. Nothing in the material universe so
challenges and enchants our wonder as the
human mind, ever progressive and growing.
We view with awe the scintillations of the
forked lightning as they shoot athwart the
canopy of heaven; but the vivid corusca'
tons of thought and the brilliant hashings
of the imagination far surpass them in sub
Unity. 1t is truly instructive and elevating
to behold the potent innate abilities of man,
because, we are thus inspired with noble
emulation. AS the universe has been con-
sdered the palace in which the Deity re-
sides, so may the capabilities of man be re-
garded as the dominions in which the in
telect sits, the legitimate monarch, and
sways the falacious sceptre of sovereign
ty
We lay it down as proposition that af-
fords extensive personal application and a
bundant support, that every ordinary man
has talent sufficient to become great.
In viewing the lofty prominence which
some occupy in intellectual greatness, and
the extreme inferiority of others, the ques-
ton arises, what is the cause of this vast
difference! We answer rst,-because the
natural tendency of the mind is to inactivi-
ty. Man seeks ease wherever it is to be
found, whether in the luxury of the banquet;
on elysian plains or in foreign climes; but
he strenuously avoids the fearful ordeal of
close application and incessant labor. As
the vigorous exercise of any faculty Of the
mind at first produces pain rather than plea
sure, man endeavors to shun every opposing
difficulty, by seeking enjoyment in INACTIVE
ty, by hugging the delusive visions of his
fancy and by soothing his passions into APP
athy and repose,
Neither the desire ofnew discoveries, nor
the pleasure accruing from a disciplined
mind, nor the blessings of known truths,
can animate his soul to studious and per-
petual exertion. If aroused from its lethar-
gy, it will only sluggishly hover upon the
surface of things, but never penetrate into
the hidden mysteries of philosophy nor scale
the mountain crags of learning Applica-
ton, at all times is extremely difficult, and
great attainments cannot be acquired with
out it. Hence we say secondly, abilities
without exercise cannot ensure success
Sloth and idleness are strong barriers to
the acquisition of intellectual riches.
Although man may have the talent of
an angel, if he once wraps himself in the
mantle of Incidence he degrades his God
like faculties below the brute creation; but

No Backing Out.

The steamer Andrew Jackson, Captain EcEert
on her last trip from New Orleans to Cincinnati
entered the canal at Louisville, and after passing.
through the locks, met another large boat in The
canal, filling it from side to side. The captain
on either boat insisted on the other backing out,
each refused; words ran high each threatened
the other to put on steam and rush through first.
At this point the superintendent of The canal
made his appearance, and decided that the an.
drew Jackson should back down to the basin,
and suffer the other to pass or into the locks,
saying the other boat had entered by permission,
and that the Jackson ought to have stopped at
the basin. Captain Eckert, after giving vent to
few bitter, bold curses upon the superinen-
dent reluctantly prepared to back the Jackson
down to the basin. One of his deck hands, an
Irishman, who, with flushed cheeks and hea5ng
bosom, had witnessed the contest, here exclaimed
"Captain Eckert this is your boat; you can
back her if you choose" land Selling screw
driver, and pointing to the fgure-bead, a like
ness of General Jackson, carved in hickory

So saying, he unscrewed the head, took it upon
his shoulder, carried it up town, called his
friends together, held carousal over it, till The
boat got through, then replaced it in its position,
and resumed his accustomed place on the fre-
castle of the Andrew Jackson

Water as Fuel,

This seemingly strange idea originated ia an
occasional remark of Sir H. Davy, that on the
probematcal exhaustion Of coal, men will only
have recourse to the hydrogen OF water as
means of obtaining light and caefaction, as The
gas used for lighting consists of hydrogen and
little carbon, it is only the latter which would
have to be added, after the water had been de-
composed into its elementary part. M. Jobarb.
of Brussels, was the first who extracted from
water gas, of twice as great an illuming pow
er as that obtained from COAL This gentleman
produces hydrogen gas by the decomposition Of
vapor, passing through vertical retorts filled with
coke, being in state of white hear, and at th,
moment the hydrogen being thus formed, it Is
1lixed with a little carbonic acid gas, obtained
by q distillaton Of oil, tar, or naptha, or ether
coarse substance hitherto useless in the gas
mandatory. In the BuNetne du MlSec d indus
trie, M. Jobarb's method has been amply de-
tailed He says that at the expense of one pen.
ny.worth of oil, a light may be obtained during
twenty hours, equalling that of twenty talIog
candles. Even conceding that M. Jobard's dis
covery has not quite attained the object of US.
ing wafer for light, fuel, ETC., still it has done
something towards it. These ideas lead us tc
calculation of Prof Farady, that the eemeo.
of single molecule of water, containing SU
600 charges of an electric battery: consisting
eight troughs of two inches In height, and Six
inches in circumference. At the amount ri
these slumbering forces the human mind is sul
tied, because, if We should ever be able to ell
it and make them available, the power Of n
mightiest steam engines would dwindle to iiNs
ing, and these ends would be attained by men
of things seemingly trifing and worthless, WA I
cannot now be accomplished by any sacrifice

The WAY to get Rich.

The only way in which capital can increase,
is by saving. Ifyou spend as much as you get,
you will never be richer than you was then. 1t
is moi what man gets, but what he saves, that
constitutes his wealth. Go learn the first two
rules of arithmetic; learn addition and subtrac-
ton: add to your present capital any amount you
please; subtract the sum which you add, and
tell me if the last amount will not be the same
as the first. Every merchant should, in every
year of his life, make some addition to his capt.
tai. You say you get but little; never
mind, spend less than little, and then next year
you will get more, for you will have the profit
upon the sum you save. There is 1AECyal g
to wealth, any more than to gecn
who goes on spending al "
that by sonis lucky lit -
will most likely sink into pow
adverse fortune, he has then no vsN
as by economy he may lay by stock thGt may
serve as a provision in case of adversely. a man
says the times are bad the laws are bad. BE
it so but were the case reversed, II "ou'u iii"No
no difference to you. Look at home: you spend
more than you get; how can you be otherwise
than poor! How many a respectable family
have fallen from high station which they have
worthily and honorably filled, because the gen.
tleman nor the lady had been familiar with the
first four rules Of arithmetic Had they known
how to check the accounts of their agents, their
tradesmen, their servants had they known how
to compare their receipts and expenditures and
to see which preponderated, all their difficulties
might have been avoided A very small &C
quaintance with the principles of commerce is
sufficient to teach that, if man spends every
year more than he receives, he will necessarily
fall to poverty.-.NcrchantS' Magazine

terms of severe distress would intervene. About
IL o'clock the baby was troublesome, and Cook
wished her (witness) to take it into the other
room. She declined going out because the room
| was cold, but Cook insisted, and she took the
child into the other room and got it to Sleep
While out she heard Cook mixing something,
and after her return, he said he had gwen her
hot sling. She soon grew worse, and some Of
the neighboring females having been called in
they desired Cook to go for the Doctor. He de-
clined, but after much urging he went. The
Doctor came about o'clock, and administered
medicine without any favorable result and her
sister died between and 10 o'clock in the MORN
ing. In the course of conversation which took
place between Cook and his wife and hersef..
she learned that Cook brought the cider fl
cellar, and asked his wife to drink it a
how sweet it was. She compiled with
Mrs. Abigail Lane, wife Of bFoFg : u,
deceased, testified that she was with Mrs. q I
part of the night when she was sick Mrs.
Cook was very healthy woman, and said that
she was as well as ever when she sat downo
tea, and had an excellent appetite.
The Jury on Saturday, returned a verdictof
not guilty, and the prisoner was discharged from
custody. A correspondent of the Times SAYS
that when the verdict was declared, the prisoner
occupied box, the sides of which were about
four feet high and when the Court passed'tle
order for his discharge, he did not wait for the
door of his box to be opened, but leaped over
the top and sprang towards the outer door Of the
room, exhibiting the most extrayagant tokens of
Joy at his deliverance.
