Brutal MuRDER.-About four o'clock Christ
mas morning, the body of a murdered man was
found in Madison street, between Lasalle and
w ellis, and taken to the watch-house. From pa
pers on his person. it appeared that his name
was T. F. McGeah, THAT he came here from Co
lumbus, Ohio, where his wife and family reside.
He was good-looking, respectfully man,
but letters on his person show that he was in
destitute circumstances. His head had been
struck by slung-shot or some other heavy in
strument several times, and his lower jaw was
broken Chicago Democrat.

Tar LAW FARcE.-The Millresburg, Ohio
Farmer gives pointed instance of the farce of
the law. John NJ Shrock, the defaulting Treas
urer of Holmes county, ran away with $4,000
of the public money. He was pursued to Eu-
rope, captured, brought back, tried, convicted
and sentenced to one years Imprisonment in the
penitentiary. Another man, named Chas- B.
Smith, resident of the same county, about the
same time borrowed horse, worth perhaps $50,
rode him to aneighboring town, sold him, pock-
cted the money, was pursued, caught, tried con-
vscted, and sentenced to the pentientiary for
three years
