disentangle herself. After confession the
Judge thought further examination use
less but the, twelve men of the jury had
evidently become more bewildered than
ever. Was not the dwarf so ugly, and
Francoise Laurier SO good looking; and
was it not possible, after all, that the pref

by accident, and taken the bonnet in mere
despair Of soul !? '' D.. ?,
Thus communing with themselves, the
men Of the jury were locked up to think
over the matter at their leisure. After
long deliberation they came forth again
into The Court, announcing, amid the
deep silence Of the multitude, that Fran
coise Laurier had been found guilty Of the
murder Of Louise Rosseau, but, without
premeditation, and 'sunder extenuating

announced that he could cure the worst
cases Of suffering in ten minutes, without
a surgical operation. A friend Of mine
was an inveterate case, and l advised him

He called, was convinced BY the testimo-
nials exhibited, struck up q bargain, paid
the fifty dollars, and soon called at my Of

resolved TO put on my sharpest wits and

q large fee and learn tho strange art, with
the privilege Of using it to cure whomso-

The following incident occurred at Salem,
Indiana, during the recent raid of John
Morgan. Some of his men proceeded out
west OF the town to burn the bridges and
water tank on the railroad. On the way
out they captured a couple of persons living
IN the country, one Of whom was Quaker.
The Quaker strongly objected to being
made prisoner. Secesh wanted to know
if he was not strongly opposed to the
,South.

The difficulty in the case of the John

hurry that there was no time for the militia
to get to his front before he would be ahead
