TESTIMONY OF JAMES NJ. MITCHELL.
I know Sarah {. Bloom l recognize this person
who has just left the stand as Sarah c. Bloom have
known her almost from child-at least for several
Year..
The aspect Of the case now assumes a very different
import the tone Of speculation is altogether changed
and the strong prejudice which existed in the minds of
the citizens of Newburgh Saturday in reference to
jenkins has of course been completely di-peed, and
the mystery is ne1picable, except by theories
wild as the high prospective castles which children
used to build in the air. One thing is certain, the
known anywhere around Newburgh for some miles.
When our reporter left yesterday afternoon the Coro-
ner and Sheriff were Just starting upon an exploring
Journey. Not the least singular feature in this is
the curious fact that in great many respects there
is remarkable coincidence in the marks upon the
person Of Miss Bloom and those upon the body Of the
murdered woman. The similarity will be seen by COM
pairing the description Of both.

In addition to these marks upon the person of Miss

that she had one other mark, but upon being inerro

In addition to the above the following description Of
the body by Edward S. Dunster NJ. d., who assisted
at the port norton examination, was copied from his
journal:
