in the oil regions, the particulars of
which are not Known to us; but according
to our best information, Mr.. Billingsly,
son law of Mr.. John Gi | of Slippery

team and wagon across the railroad track
other teams we're before him SO that
he could not move forward as fast as he
otherwise might-the train came along,
his horses became frightened, and, in
some way, failed TO get off the track
The train passed over the wagon, smash
ing it completely, Killing one of his horses
instantly, and injuripg him so seriously
that he died in few hours. His remains
was brought home to his family in this
county, whoAad, but short time before
their arrival learned the sad news
The sorrow inflicted by this sad di pen.

cd than described.

know that the time for holding the first
Court in the year has been changed one

NTurderers Convicted.

The trial of Howser and Bowser, at
Ebensburg, Cambria county, for the mur
der of Polite Paul and Cassie Munday,
on the 7th of juno last, has been brought
to a close, and resulted in the conviction
of the prisoners, and their sentence TO be
hung The murder was one of the most
brutal and horrible ever perPctrated, and
for time seemed involved in impenetra
Bile mystery. The defendants had served
a term in the peniteutiary, for burgla-
ry committed in Allegheny and while
there they made the acquaintance of two
other prisoners, who knew old Pol lie Paul
and believed that she. had considerable
money, The lonely mountain hut OF the
defeuceless old woman, was place which,
in the opinion OF these daring burglars,
so5bery and (if need bel murder could
be committed with impunity. They plan
ned the robbery before getting out of
prison, and consummated the murder in
few days after visiting the neighbor-
hood. They then returned to Allegheny,
and doubtless felt secure-but one of
those. trifling circumstances which SO fire.
quently lead to the detection of murder,
bad occurredi in this case. A negro con-
fined in an adjoining cell in the penitep-
tiary, had overhead the conversation
which passed between Howser and Bow
ser, and after hearingof the murder, he
made known this fact, which led to their
arrest aud coayiction. Another remark
able fact is reported in connections with
this cass. The mother of Miss Nun lay,
an aged lady, states that soon after the
commitment of Howser aud Bowser to
the Ebensburg Jail, she had dream, in
which she plainly saw her daughter strug-
gle with her murderer, and heard hsr
cry s'help, mother" She could remem-
Der the features of the man whom she
saw in the bloody act. and the dream
made SO deep an impression on her mind

The inmates werc all placed in a row, and
the old lady closely scrutinized them one
after another, until her eyes fell upou
Bowser, when, starting back, she exclaim
