ASTOUNDING DEvELoPIEST-Siagal0r Case Of Pr
juy-A dispatch, dated New Haven, Dec. 18th,
tells the following extraordinary tale:
1t will be remembered that last winter, boy
named Charles L. Sage about I9 years of age, was
missing from his home in Cornwell, near Middle
ton, IN this State, and that an lrishman named
Patrick Nugent was arrested on charge of mnr-
dering the lad, and putting his body under the ice
In few months afterwards n body was found in
the river, without head The body was believed
to be that OF the missing boy, from several marks
upon il, as well as from a portion of the clothing
Soon afterwards, the lining of an overcoat was
found, answering to the description Of that worn
by the missing person. Some months elapsed,
when sailor named Benson came TO Cornweli,
aud charged Sugent,sths Irshman, with the mur-
der. lie said he saw the deed done. aud assiste
Nugent in putting the corpse under a,haymow. He
described accurately the lads appearance-his
dress-the color of his hair, &C.. and declared that
he had not had any peace of mind since the mur-
der, and that he had come to Cromwell expressly
to divuige all he knew about it. He confronted
Sugent, and charged The deed upon him. The de.
ceased denied it, but trembled from head TO foot
Grand Jury found a true bill against Nugent
whose time of trial was fixed for the present
month. Thus matters have rested until within
few weeks, when the cousin of the missing boy,
living in Ithaca, New York, received an anony.
nous letter from the interior of Pennsylvania,
which be showed to his father, Mr. Williams
The latter was answered, when another letter was
received from Pennsylvania, signed William Rus
sell, which Mr.. Williams himself answered He at
the same time addressed the Postmaster, request
ing him to watch for the person who called for
the letter, and describe him. The Postmaster did
so, when MIR. Williams Immediately left Ithica for
Pennsylvania, found Russell, whom he discovered
to be has iptep Charles T. Sage, tie identical ,atss-
ij.g boyi special court is held at Haddam to-
day. when Nugent will be liberated The case is
involved in the deepest mystery, beyond what has
been related. No one can assign any reason for
the perjury of sailor ho that he saw the
murder committed, and there is 10 information To-
lead to the identity OF the body that was found
and buried as that of the boy Sage. The annals of
crime do not afford more extraordinary case than
this.

DREADFUL DEATH.-A very likely negro boy, .
longing to Mrs. Stephens, of Greene and hired this
year to MIR. Chapman. near Free Union, was killed
last Monday in most shocking manner. He was
thrown from horse, his foot hung in the strrup,
and thus dragged for o considerable distance at a
furious rate his head and body were terribly crush
ed. Ills body was dragged with such violent force
against gate post that the staple fastening the
siirrnp leather TO the saddle gave way and len the
mangled and dead body at the gate. When found,
life was completely extinct probably fed before
the body had been dragged against the gate. The
Advocate.
