his wife and children, should the husband
and father be convicted, that many of the
jurors were in tears, and without leaving
their seats, returned. a.Eerdict of not gull

welldeveloped body, perfect in all its proportions,

moment after birth. The facts are vouched for by
the attending physician Of the highest standing

| by the name of Mary Fred, living in South Pitts
burg has been missing for six weeks. Her body was
found in Jacks Run last Sunday, several miles be-

borough, into the wild woods of Jacks Run, where
alone she wept her spirit away, far from her mother
and home. [Pittsburg Express
