\ HARD CAsE.-On Wednesday, Mr. Ham
mel, the undertaken, was called to take charg
of the body of Il man who had died on the
premises of Dr. Gilbert Hammel found the
body in such condition and so unusually
disposed lit being on the floor resting on its
face, with the arms and legs doubled under
neath,) that he determined to give informa-
Cion to the Coroner before proceeding TO bu-
ry it. lie accordingly informed Justice Ber-
ry (aeting Coroner) of the matter, and a jury
was forthwith summoned to investigate the
case After hearing the evidence of such wit
nesses as were brought before them, the Jury
agreed upon the verdict which appears be-
low, but one of the number being Subsequent
ly s'own to be foreigner, the whole proce-
dure was set aside as a nu.iy. We deem it
proper, however, to give the verdict agreed
upon by the five jurors whose names attend
it. 1t reads as follows:
We the jury in this case, iud that the de-
ceased Edward Harris, died in the office of
DR.. Gilbert. on the 9th day of Oct, at
o'clock, 4. NJ, from an attack of the erysipe-

Tennessee We also take this opportunity of
censurng the conduct of the County Phvsi

Leg BROKE. We learn from the Santa Ro-

I'osa, met with serious accident on Sunday
l't. 1t seems, says that paper, that he and
Nm. Nicely Jonson, were travelling in bug

lines, when one of them became entan
ged with the rings through which it passed,
NJ horses being in moderate trot. Not be-
lgable to check or govern the horses by
lhe ordinary means, it seems that johnson,
banding the lines to Brown, jumped out to

= "The absurdity of the idea that the Kan

every day more apparent is now certain
that the Lecompton constitution has been
repudisted by a large majority of the voters

held out by John Calhoun, the peripatetic
custodian of the ballots, in giving the certi-
ficates OF election for the Legislature TO the
free State Candidates. BY the nionthsof DC
tober the people of Kansas, ii they really
desire admission into the Union, viii have
held a Convention and formed a new Con-
stitution. They will present it for consld-
Grafton at the next session of Congress, and
will ask admission in spite of the prohibi-
tory clause in the English compromise act
which requires population OF ninety
three thousand. Then we shall have th'
whole field ofedisputation opened anew. am
traversed in oil the forms IN which al

Bely \ poor wretch named Burns is now
under sentence of death at Cleveland, Ohio,
for the murder of frail woman. The other
day his old father was allowed to call upon
him TO afford him a little spiritual consola-
ton. He had bible tied up, which the
jailor carefully examined, and between its
consolatory pages out dropped lancet, by
the blade of which, and between the sheath,
was slip of paper, on which was written
in large capitals, EARN left, which of course
was intended TO convey the idea of lancing
in the left arm.
