The Bostcn Aanrtiser contains report Of
the trial Of Htn. F. o. J. Smith, for e1borns-
ton and perjury, whose conviction has been
announced BY telegraph. The prosecution
grew out Of the perjury or one Nor.hsop, In .
suit brought BY D. Il. Craig, for libel. 1lr.
Smith has been widely known for years as
connected with the Independent Telegraph
Lice, and Mr.. C1a'g was agent Of ths Also
ciattd Press. Smith charged Craig with cut
ting the wires Of the Boston and Now York
line on the arIisal Of tors1gn stenmer, and
for better concealment used woman as an
accomp1lce; hence the libel suik.: Smith I'd.
nitted the charge and urged the tznth In de-
fenae, but the jury gave Craig 81, 500 damages.
In this suit the deposition Of Ecrthrop Was
used tn behalf Of Smith, aud this testimony
being falac, It Eas alleged to hare been pro-
cured BY Smith, who wrote several letters to
forthrup's wife, giving tho answers lla should
make to certain inquiries. These answers
Nosthror swore, in the prosecution Of Smith,
70 have been false, and that he had pefjused
himFclt In The expectation that Smith would
make him manager Of the independent line !;
and Mrs Northrop expected Smith to give
her house In New York for herr efforts to
Induce her husband to testify according to
his fS1nith's) d;ct1 ion. It was shown that
Mrs. No1throp had been Smiths mistress, BY
whom he had had two children before North
rop married her. Tho Jury rendered yer.

An Actor Nearly Hung.

The New Orleans True Delta gives the
following account of an accident which
happened at the theatre there few nights
since:
Mr.. Flemmipg, as Bill Sykes falls from a
housetop, being startled from his balance by
the apparition of the murdered Nancy Sykes.
Previous to falling, he places rope around his
neck, while he makes arrangements for his
descent and when the ghost causes him to
lose his footing he Is supposed to hang him
self This superstition became reality On Fri.
day night, for instead of the fall being broken
and his weight suspended from hook at the
back of his neck, the whole force of the fall
came upon his neck, owing to the breaking of
the hook. Mr.. Flemming hung suspended by
the neck until the curtain was lowered. and he
was then cut down insensible. he suffered
considerably from abrasion Of the skin of the
neck, although not 20 badly injured "a on =
former occasion, when similar accident han
pened to him while playing the same chsr,c.
ter. Shooting was substituted for hsnsinc IN

The Milk In Donnelly's Cocoa.Nus.

The Milk in Donnelly's Coeca.Nus.
A friend told us good story apropos
of DoNNELLY's libel suit against US. Once
on a time, away down East, the good man
of the house came home at night little
tipsy and in towering rage. His beloved
spouse solicitously inquired the cause OF
bis commotion. He replied fercely that
Brown had called bin ga id liar. ;
"Never mind" soothingly responded the
good woman; she can't prove it." But
he did," calculated the enraged husband,
with increasing emphasis and passion ;
"HE D1D!" And that was .whats the
matter, I" it appeared.
Now, let us be distinctly understood :
We do not say that zoe think this story at
all applicable to DoNHs1LY's case, but that
our friend thought 80. Webeg, however,
to cay, in the most emphatic terms, both
to Mr.. DoNNxrLY and to his distinguished
counsel, that we shall not rereal the name
of this friend. The aneodote was told us
With the most distinct understanding that
the author should not be exposed to any
personal risk or liability in the premises.
He is rising young man like Mr.. DoS-
NELLY, with rather brighter future before
him, however, and he could not now incur
and be compelled to discharge an indebt-
edness of $lo,o without seriously dam
aging his prospects, may be. through his
whole future life. ia.
Nothing, therefors,-not even the APP
plication Of the modern thumb-screws OF
the Dry TortugaA-would induce ne, I'M
der any circumstances, to mention in this
connection the name Of our esteemed taci-
turn friend. a

We beg our readers and also our e.
teemed and promising young friend,
/. L. D., to consider the foregoing items
as duly inserted in our former statement
of account between him and ourselves.
We are confident that this corrected &C.
count will be found perfect in all respects,
without an " error " or " OMISSION
We have q word further to add: 1t will
be seen that PUeNAoIoUs, in bis COM
plant, charges US with attributing to him
the commission of "some criminal Of
fence, which would render him liable to
arrest, indictment and punishment in
the alleged libellous paragraph quoted
from this paper.
Now, everybody has heard the report
that DoNHRLLY, once on q time, while
passing through Philadelphia, was arrested
for debt. We believe his counsel advised
him not to plead his privilege as member
of Congress, and the matter was compro-
missed IN some way.
Everybody knew, and nobody better
than DoNNEILY, that, if the obnoxious
paragraph about "arrest " had any refer
ence to DoNxELLY at all, it had reference
to this his reported arrest for debt in Phil
adelphia, and to nothing else. Neverthe-
less, DoNNELLY alleges that, by this para
graph, We meant and intended "to have it
understood that he had committed some
criminal offence, which would render him
liable to arrest, indictment and punish
ment y; and lie s,cears to this allegation.
Now, we shall not venture to apply to
this proceeding on his part the little tri-
syllable English word which properly char
acterizes it; for we cannot afford to be-
come Mr.. DoNNELLYs debtor to any
further extent We shall leave the appli-
cation to our readers, who can, and most
likely win, indulge the luxury Of freedom
q thought, even if We are debarred from
freedom of speech in the premises.
For the present We dismiss the Honor
able IsNArIus LoYoLA DoSEELLY, n. O.,
with our hearty henediosion. Doubtless
We may have occasion to refer to him
again At some future period We know
he would 10 more disappointed than any
one else, if We did not.
We shall keep our readers duly advised
Of the progress of the great ible suit.
We commence by giving below the plain
tiff's complaint It viii b seen that there
is most formidable list Of counsel arrayed
against NJ. Our own interests in this
business we have. committed into the

We might ill our columns, from now

timonials of Mr.. RloEs efficient labors for

but We deem it unnecessary to do 80. His
name is household word, treasured with
the warmest gratitude and respect, by all
the early settlers, and handed down to
their children and the later emigrants, as
the synonym of all that is disinterested
and noble in public man.
Aside from all political complications,
no one can doubt that HENRY n. RIoK
would be the almost unanimous choice of
the people for Governor. They feel that
he has the ability to do more for the State
than any other man; that his influence at
home and abroad is potential for its good |;
and that with him in the executive. chair,
all it's material interests viii be greatly ad-
vanoed. The personal obligations of thou
sands to Mr.. R1cE can be requited in an
appropriate manner BY efforts to insure
his election. while the indebtedness of the
public demands this small acknowledg-
ment of gratitude. ' q (.

The pretenee OF the negro-worshippers,

In-the words of tie Attorney General, ga

citizen can be deprived of bis political

shippers was not 80 much to exclude de-
serters from the polls, as to invest inspeo-
tors with pretended authority to reject
the votes of Loyal and patriotic electors,
at their discretion. This is an infamous
project, and Democrats should be on their
guard against it.
