The Cleveland Wool Depot.

Has been established over six years, and it
affords the subscribers much satisfaction to
know that its merits are fully appreciated by
those who have patronized it during this en-
tire time. The change made one year ago in
confning its sales to cash, have met with
universal favor. 1t is proposed to continue
tile cash system, and future consignors may
rely on the same prompt return which char
acterized our last years business. Perhaps
not quite as high figures can be obtained by
adhering strictly to cash; but it will insure
prompt returns, and hundreds have assured
us that they obtained from .fue to ten cents a
pound more through the Depot than were Of
fered last Spring from other sources, and we
believe this has been true every year excep-
ting a lew of the consignments during the Fall
of 1857. 1t should, therefore, no longer re-
main q question in the minds of
Wool Growers or Merchants
having Wool to dispose of, that this system of
closely classifying and handling wool will
prove the very best manner of selling wool
which has yet been adopted.
To those aoiShing to realize on their acool

We trust that the liberal Cash advances the
long experience in the Depotousiness, estab
lished reputation of our grades among man
ufactures, with undivided attention to our con
! signors' interests, will insure us a liberal pat
ronage. ..

IT has seemed to US, in reading OF the
Sicklcs.Key affair, that the conduct Of Butter
worth was, to say the least, little singular.
The accounts of the tragedy stated that But
terworth, at the request of Sickles, had engaged
KEY in conversation until Sickles could pro.
cure his pistols and overtake him. that during
the fracas, Butterworth stood calmly by, without
offering to interfere; and that when the deed was
done, he took Sickles' arm unconcernedly, and
walked of in his company.
We see, now, that Mr.. Butterworth has pub
lished statement in the Washington papers,
denying the statements which have been so cur
rent He declares that he met Key only casu-
ally that he did not expect collision, or know
that Sickles was in pursuit of him; that he did
not seek to detain Key, who first addressed him
as he approached, and with whom his CONVERSE
ton lasted only minute.
1t was certainly due to Mr.. Butterworth to
make this statement. These accounts had
placed him in n very bad position, and it was
altogether proper that he should set himself
right. We are glad to see that this murder was
not a diabolical plotting against life, but that
the awful responsibility of the deed rests alone
with SickIes. The position assigned to Mr..
Butterworth by the letter writers was far from
an enviable one-making him appear much
worse than the principal. Happily, however,
he exculpates himself FROM the association of
crime.
While we are on this subject we will mention
that paragraph from Forney's Press is going
the rounds, to the effect that this is not the first
trOuble between Sickles and his wife. Mr.. For
rey being intimate with the sickles family is
entitled to credit Here it is.
at is but just, however to say that the init
macy between Mr. Key and Mrs Sickles had
been remarked in Washington circles for year
past, and had been the occasion of more than
one disagreement in the families of the parties.
During the last Congress, notes passed between
Mr.. Key and Mr.. Sickles on this subject, which
were followed by complete reconciliation, and
Mr.. Key visited ms usual at the house of Mr..
Sickles, having dined with him at large party
uot more chan ten days ago"

Two phrenologists have recently examined
the head of Jumpertz, now in the Chicago jail,
condemned for the murder of Sophia Werner.
One ofthe chronological professors declares the
head of Jumpertz to be almost perfect in its de-
velopment. He has never seen the organ of be-
neTolence more largely developed and in the
present case this organ has the sway over all
others, being three times as large as the organ
of destructiveness. The probabilities of man
committing murder with such finely developed
head may be as one in million; but he thinks
it utterly impossible. The other professor con-
ours in the belief that he never could commit a
murder with his benevolent organization. He
says Jumpertz Iooks rery much like PriRes Al

THE will of the late Henry L. Ellsworth, by
which he gave to Yale College large proportion
of,his property, is to be contested. The deceas-
ed made win in 1851, giving to his relatives
eght-tenths of his estate, and dividing the re-
naming two-tenths between the Wabash, qnd.,)
College, Yale College, the American Bible So
cicty, and the American Colonization Society.
The Wabash College has commenced legal pro-
ceedings to hareHthis will of 1851, admitted
to probate=-insisting that the will of 1857 was
mnc.e by the deceased when he was of unsound
mind. The contest, if any he made, will be
waged by Yale College, and those in her inter-
ests, as her proportion of the estate, in this
will is admitted to probate, will amount to about
$4,000. Whereas under the will of 1857, the
bequest was estimated at about half a million of
dollars.
