The Western COpperhead Conspiracy.

There have been further disclosures in
the trial OF the ''Son> Of liberty at In

viou> testimony, and proving that the con-
splracy was widespread. powerful and
dangerous. Horace Heflron. the DEPUTY
Grand commander of the order. has turned

He says that nobody but democrats were
admitted to the order. that il was thor

Maumee, received, when a lad, the appoint
ment of cadet at West Point, from the
member of Congress from his district in
Ohio. Unfortunately, Parker was too young

Gus that some one in his town should have
the benefit of the appointment, cast about
for a boy worthy of it. 10 a dry goods
store was lad, the son of Irish parents, who
by his salary as clerk supported widowed
mother and sister. The place was offered TO

to give up the clerkship. Upon being urged

Were examining some revolver>. and
among them the deceased Mrs. Ii. >nap-

capped, four times. Mr.. Golf said he
could snap ii twice to her once and took
the revolver from her hands and fired il.
The first time he tried it. ii went off,
Neither knew ii was loaded The ball
struck Mrs. Hamilton. who was sitting in
Il chair near by. in the left breast. killing
her almost Instantly Mrs. Hamilton wis
from Newport. VT and was the Young
and attractive wife of Mr. Daniel Hamil-
ton. soldier in the Union army and al
the time of this sad accident an inmate of
the Sloane Hospital. Montpelier. On re-
cciving the sad tidings he came home to
his two Young mothcrleS> children. and ON
Wednesday last laid his wife in the grave.
Words can not express the wretchcdness
caused 10y such careless use of fire arms.
We trust this sad affair will open the ewes
of all. both old and young, to the absolute
necessity of handling fire arms with the
greatest care. Unless this Is done we
shall have to record more accidents of the
same kind Parents should especially see
that their children, if not of competent
age. are not allowed to have these dam
gerous weapons in their possession.

HeeI an, the puRilist, was one of the persons
injured ry the late accident on the Southwestern
Railway, near EHham. He has sustained partial
pnral, sis of the lower limbs, and some injury TO
the spine, which, tor the present, prevcut him
from moving about. Tue medical men who OK
smiued him do not, however, thiak that his frame
is permanently injured, but that With rest aud q
strict tentiOu tU diet he may ultimately be res
torrd 10 an enjoyable state Of hoath.
The examination of hIs case, however, reveals
the fact that the magnificent anatomical stru turo
which occ s.oned so much admiration In the
fsmuus ring al FLTnhIm has become the prey ut
disease, and that all idea of the transatlantic
champion resumiug the calling OF an athlete is
out Of the question.
Regard being had to this circumgtlnce, the
