ALBERT VICTOR LAMARTINE.
Medical investigation showed that the
sentimental Lamartine had really taken
laudanum but not enough to hurt him.
In fact he recovered presently, and took
up collection Of $25, and then went to
ST.. Louis. After he was gone ii turned
out that he had committed suicide at SAIL
dusky, where he had been presented with
$50, and a free ticket to Dayton. Albert
Victor is probably taking his life out west
by this time. Our account is condensed

A Horrible Crime.

VIM. Joy, the man who burned his
child to death over fire, was. convicted
Of the crime in the Wabash (Indiana)
court last Saturday week, and sentenced
to eighteen years confinement in the Peni-
tentiary. The principal witness against
HIM was his own little daughter. Her
story to the jury is thus given by the In
telligencer. Such case Of -blooded
butchery seldom stains the records Of
crime:
Her little brother John, child about four
months old, was quite unwell, and had
been for some days, and was constantly
fretful, and had cried considerably dur~
ing the night, and disturbed her father
Early in the morning her father called
her and told her to get up and make a
fire.-She did so-made the fire princi-
pally Of brush, because there was no
other wood prepared. After the fire
began to burn the child continued to cry
and fret; her father became enraged,
and snatched the child from its mothers
arms. tore every perticle Of clothing of
it, and then took it by one arm and one
leg, and held it over the fire until it was
burnt in several places to blister. He
then struck the little sufferer two blows
with his hand leaving upon its body the
marks Of his fingers, and threw it into q
cradle or bed.
His wife and daughter struggled to ge
the child away from him, but were una
BILE to do so and when Mrs. Joy fount
that he was going to burn the child t.
death, she ran out Of the house to preven
seeing the sight, and to get out Of hear
ling Of the child's screams. Joy tool
down his gun and pointing it at her com
! PEELED her to come in. He then left tn
! house and did not return, as we under
stand, for day or two. Four days afte
, this terrible scene the little suffering chill
J died and was buried. None but Joy an,
. wife and two young daughters knew any
thing about the cause ofthe death. Th
