SHOCKING BRuTALITy.-TheS st. Joseph (Mo) West
relates the following shocking case:
One of the most thoroughly heartless and brutal
murders was brought to light yesterday by which we
have ever been shocked. Upon information having
been lodged with him by person of whose name we
are not cognizant, Coroaer Crane summoned jury
and proceeded to Mount Mora Cemetery to disinter
and examine the body Of negro girl who had been
buried at o'clock the same day. We are informed
that the body was literally covered from head to foot
with marks Of cruelty There were stripes which had
healed, were healing, which were beginning to sup.
pnrate which were in the hight Of suppuration, and
Others again fresh as if they had been inflicted the
day previous more horrid spectacle it is difficult
to imagine. She was the property of Mr.. Wash, who
attended to the nterment. The jury could come to
but one conclusion, to wit that death was superin-
duced from external injuries inflicted by Mrs. Wash
and an Irishman-name unknown. The parties have
absconded and are now at large. The officers, how.
ever are in hot pursuit, and we will no doubt be able
in day or two to chronicle their arrest This is one
the most shocking events that has ever occurred in
our community, and we are glad to have il in our
power to do the South the justice OF stating that one
Of the parties implicated was born and raised In
Free State, and that the other is a foreigner.

LABOR TRIUMPHs OVER CAPITAL.

The most important item of foreign news received
for long while was yesterday announced by the tee.
graph We refer to the statement that the builder
class Of operatives in the city Of London after pro-
longed strike against their employers have finally
trumphed, and carried their point Of reducing the
measure Of days labor from ten hours to nine This
is one of the most portentous Of the signs OF the
times. aside from the considerations which it directly
suggests. The builders strike will probably be FOL
lowed by similar movement 10 all the great depart
mens Of labor and thus ten per cent of the productive
ability Of England will be destroyed by the loss Of ten
per cent. of the time Of labor, while the same price
will have to be paid, the mouths Of the same number
OF employees filed. In the cotton factories but nine
hundred bales Of cotton will be worked up where o
thousand were before unless the capacities of
facture are enlarged and more operatives employed
good thing for the working classes but bad for the
employers for they will have to pay the same for ten
per cent. less service. And SO in other walks OF
manufacture.
The struggle for the ten hour system was great
conflict, but this for the nine hour system is the
greatest battle which labor has yet fought with cap
ital for In the former case labor had reason and right
to back 1t against tyrannous power but in this labor
strove with the disadvantage Of standing unreas-
