a Singular Case.

Mr.. Robert ID. Kirkpatrick had a hearing
to-day before Alderman Eneu, on the al
legged charge OF conspiracy against the do
nestle peace AID happiness and the lives OF
the members of tue family Of Edwin Kirk

the case by narrating is principal points
He said it wa7 not only very peculiar case.
but a very painful one. His client Edwin
Kirkpatrick, had for several years past, been
aunoved by the reception OF Anonymous let
t.rs which were designed to destroy the do
nestle peace OF his family. On The 9Th Of
January LAST. the daguerreotype IF Young
female was sent to the house OF Mrs. Twin
kirkpatrick, on Arch street. The picture
and an acc mpany;ng note we're directed to
Mrs. X, who bad given birth to u child
few days before and the blow was painful
one. The note was signed Miss Sherburne,
and it set forth that the original nf the pie
ture WAS young lady whom Mr.. *. bad Sc
duced. and whose friends would prosecute
him for damages unless Mr.. X would pay
Cor the support of the child. The daguer-
rcotype. Judge Kelley said, was the likeness
Of pure and vIrtuuus wUmaD--the wife OF
a respectable and honorable man. About
three weeks since q mince pie was left at the
door of Mr.. rs house, and card which
ACCOMPANIED it induced the recipients to be-
iieve that it was sent To Mrs X by her aunt
Kate. All who partOok f this pie sick"ned
that night. and gave evidences Of being POI
soned. The remainder OF the pie was set
aside, and, upon being analysed 1t was,
found to be so impreguaGed with poison that

Destruction OF Liquor {

Destruction OF Liquor % Mt Harwich.
The citizens Of ll.rwich at their annual
town meeting last Monday, voted that the IL
quor agency 10 that town be discontinued,
and that the liquor at present on hand be
g. d to the physician for medical purposes.
The physician, however, refused to pur-
chase the article, on the ground that it was
of such inferior quality as to be utterly unf'
for use ard such as be would not prescribe
il was then voted that the VIII le be publicly
burned in preseoce of the citizens, and a com
mittee was appointed to execute the vote in
,e puNlic square on Tuesday at | | a. NJ
The mem beers of the committee, il proceeding
to the performances of their duty, fou nd, that
they had a new diffulty to encounter which
vas no more nor less than the incombustibe
nature Of the article which they were deputed
to destroy.
Atthi: iuncture an exredient was suggest
ed. which fortunately enabled them to carry
their plans into execution. 4 quantity Of
pure alcohol, which had been kept ut the
liquor agency for mechanical purposes, was
mixed with the vile stuff sufficiently to cause
it to ignite, and enable the committee to eI-
ecute their duties to the satisfaction OF all
parties.
These spirited proceedings in lIarwich, our
informant adds, have created considerable
discussion in the town, on the question wheth-
err ardent SPIRITS will ignite or not. and it IL
recommended that the question be referred
