Horrible Murder in Manitowoc Co.

The Manitowoc Tribune brings the
account of brutal murder committed
recently, in the town of Eaton in that
county, JoHN w. SCHULTZ, German,
being the victim; two other Germans
named Peglow and Franz, being the
murderers.
Mr.. c. III. Day, of Manitowoc, was
limiting in the woods, and came upon
the body. The Tribune says:
On turning the corpse over, it was found
that two balls had pierced his chest near
the left shoulder, further examination
showed that he had received blow on
the forehead with heavy bludgeon,
while lying on the ground, but from the
nature of the wound it was evident that
his death resulted from the gunshot and
was instantaneous.
The body was guarded by the dog Of
the deceased which would not allow any
body to touch it till a brother-in-law of
Schultz came, when he submitted to its
removal.
One of the neighbors, named Peglow,
was arrested, and such strong evidence
OF his guilt found that he confessed the
deed. We again quote from the Iiib-
une:
lie said that Shultz, who was also a
German, held a Judgment, against him
and another man for $50, and was also
awitncssin neutrality-suspicious. claim,
and they supposed that they could drive
him off, but finally agreed to kill him,
/ au6 pl1 elmo fhaTO Salyac i'm ,olueb % IL =
junction OF two foot paths they lay in
wait for him. Peglow had the gun, but
when Shultz came his courage failed and
he refused to shoot, but his companion
threatened to beaS his brains out if he did
not, and leyeling the gun he fired. Shultz
then asked "what are you going to do -
when the man with the club rushed UP
and struck him on the head, killing him
instantly.
The above is the substance of the con-
fession, and it produced such an effect
upon the feelings of the crowd, that they
determined to take the law into Their
own hands, and preparations were made
to string him up on the nearest tree
Some difficulty was experienced in OBJ
tanning sufficient rope for the purpose
and it was finally agreed to postpone the
execution until the other was taken. and
then hang them together.
The prisoners were finally brought to
Manitowoc and lodged in jail. Franz
has also confessed his guilt. The 7riJ.
me thinks the chances are against the
trial of the murderers yet.

ga Merry Christmas"

In accordance with the the time hon
ored custom, dear readers, we wish you
all"a Merry Christmas" 1t is well that
time comes once in the year, when we
may throw off the restraints and the for
malities of the busy wOrk-day life, and
indulge in the luxury Of a warm, heart
felt wish to our fellows Of a Merry Christ
mas-weH that a season arrives once in
the annual round of years, when it is
''the fashion, ITO wish all with whom we
come in contact, merry and happy. And
we do so, now, with all earnestness and
good will. 1t is a season, when the wild
winds of heaven are wont to visit US with
their stormy blasts-when the old year,
his last sands dropping in the glass, is
about giving"up the ghost, "and nature
stripped of her summer garments OF
green, and her garlands of rose is cloth
ed in her mantle of desolation-when
kind wishes and kind deeds are most
wanted and best appreciated.
Aye, Kind Deeds, are in many instan-
ces necessary to make'a merry christmas
when the wish without the deed, sounds
the veriest mockery. Shivering, thin
clad and hungry proverty, will hardly
be"merry,"at wish, without the means
of warming, clothing and filing itself.
Though among the readers of our paper,
such poverty may be comparatively un-
common, yet there are instances where
the hand of charity is needed. Those
who have an abundance need not look
far to find opportunities to bless them
selves, by helping the needy.
"a Merry Christmas~ How the mind
looks backward to the old days, at the
sound of the familiar phrase. Back to
the time when it seems as though our
christmases were tar more merry, than
theys are now. When our stockings
were hung in the capacious chimney cor
ner, with the fullest faith that Santa
Claus would not fail to have them well
filled with the contents Of his pack, be-
fore the dawn Of the welcome morning.
We linger over the memory of those
days with full consciousness that.
we neer shall sec their like again"

Re-opening of the Slave Trade.

ETHEREDGE, of Tennessee, introduced
into the House of Representatives, few
days since, a resolution pointedly con-
demning the re-opening of the Slave
trade. After some little maneuvering,
the House was brought to vote upon
it, and it was passed by vote of l52 TO
81. This is hailed by most of the papers
of the North, as a conclusive triumph
over this modern idea of re-opening the
traffic. We must confess it does not
strike us in that light. In the first place
we consider it matter for alarm, that
at this day, age, and generation, it sho'd
be considered necessary to introduce and
pass such resolution through our ma
tional Congress; in the next place that
such proposition should at its first in
PRODUCTION, receiyes57 votes, q majority
Of the Democratic party Of that body,
is surely ground for apprehension. We
presume if resolution contemplating
the repeal OF the Missouri Compromise,
had been introduced in the House, be-
fore the bill on that subject was intro
duced, it would at the first vote, have
exhibited less strength than this re-op-
ening of the Slave Trade has on this oc-
casion. We must recollect that the
vote in favor of this proposition, is a
spontaneous expression, made without
any effort or concert. When it comes
to be a party measure, and party patro-
mage and party drill are applied to it,
it viii show a different face.
1t should be matter of surprise and
alarm that such a proposition should
have received even one vote; and any
person who can take courage because it
has received only ttty-seoen, must be OF
very sanguine disposition, to say the
least.

Pennsylvania Politics-Queer Revela-

Hon. Kenneth Rayner has been max
ing speech at Raleigh, NC, in defence
of his political course during the late
charge brought against him of having
sought to aid in the election of Fremont
He acknowledged that he was DESTROYS
Of adopting any measures that would de-
feat Buchanan, but denied that he had
any sympathy for Fremont. After ex-
planning his own course of action, he paid
special attention to the democrats and
straight Fillmore men Of Philadelphia,
and said THAT gentleman of his acquain-
lance was approached by an emissary
from Forney, who told him if he would
exert himself, not for the democratic par
ty, but for the straight Fillmore ticket,
100000 would be placed to his credit
in any bank he might select" This
Fillmore ticket, he added, was the one
supported by Mr.. Sanderson, who said
Mr.. r., I" it was well known, had not
heard the jingle Of a dollar for many a
month; vet since the election he has been
able to purchase a house worth $40, 900"
According to Mr.. Rayner's statements

Sunday night last a man by the name of
Martin Geary, was killed at a liquor
shop on West st. in that town, by an

lowing circumstances:-G and some
of his friends, it appears, went to the
shop for beer, when they found Glenn
and his wife in a quarrel. Something
was saidwhich turned the wrath of Glenn
upont when he seized an axe.
which was taken away from him. He
then went out of doors for the shovel
and attempted tore-elter whit, but was
fastenedout. He remained outside until
Geary and his companions supposed he
had left, when they started togo, but on
passing out, Geary, who was in advance
of the others, was struck by Glenn with
the shovelupon the top of thehead, split
ting the skull nearly to the ear and let
ting out portion of his brains. Geary
fingered until w ednesday evening, when
he died. Glenn was arrested and is now
