HORRIBIF OUTRAGE.

The officers, who have been in pursuit of the
criminals, have just divulged the facts in a case
of most atrocious act Of villainy which was
perpetrated under the piers Of the Union Depot
last week Thursday. A young German widow,
living in Painesville, whose husband was killed
in the war, had been to Columbus and came TO
this city on the 2:i5 P. NJ. train on that day.
Being stranger in this city, and there being no
opportunity for going on to Painesvlle until
nine o'clock that evening she applied to per-
son whom she took for hack driver or hotel
runner to be taken to a hotel up town, where
she might remain till the evening traind This
wretch told her TO wait a moment while be
should speak to a friend. Re-appearing, he
asked her to go to his carriage near by. She
followed without suspicion, and was conducted
under the piers. ,
She quickly discovered his intent, and start
ed to return, when she was seized by the man
who palmed himself off as athaek driver, and
completely muzzled with handkerchief and
coat, so that she could utter no cry. Herper-
son was then violated by the scoundrel who had
enticed her there, as wen as by three other dew
lis. They left her utterly unconscious When
she came to, late in the evening, she managed 10
crawl out from under the piers, when her moan
ing was heard by several men, who kindly
placed her on board the train for Painesville at
nine o'clock. No arrests have yet been made.

SON KILLS HIS FATHER AND ALoTHAR.
The following particulars of the double horni-
eide recently reported in our telegrsphic col
umn are given in the Cincinnati Gazette
"The village of Darrtown, situated aboutnine
miles from Hamilton, in Butler county, Ohio.
was the scene, on Saturday, of one of the most
fearful tragedies we have ever recorded The
following statement of the affair, made by Mr..
J. J. Longfellow, justice Of the peace before
whom the preliminary examination Of the party
arrested took place, presents the facts so far as
known. T -
"About noon. Saturday, Sylvester Irwin, a
single man about thirty years old living with
his father, John Irwin, near Darrtown, came IN
from ploughing. In passing about the house,
some girls, from an upper story window spit
down upon him. This excited his anger, and
he demanded of his father, at the barn, whether
or not he countenaneed such actions. Hard
words followed, when the stepmolher Jane Ir-
win ran out of the house, down to the barn with
carving knife, and rushed toward Sylvester
who drew pistol. The father, John Irwin,
seized hatchet, and stepped in between his
wife and son, evidently to protect both being
proverbial for his peaceable disposition The
son then fired at the father the ball entered the
forehead, and causing instant death. He then
fired at Mrs. Irwin, the ball entering the right
breast. Sylvester then noticing that his last
shot had not performed it's mission of instant
death, seized knife and cut her throat from
ear to ear, and with club beat her head. She
only lived twenty minutes. Sylvester then
fled, and was arrested by Constable William
Howard, as he was making for the train. He
bad on his person his revolver and seventy dol
lars in money. During the preliminary exam
ination before magistrate LOnfellow, there was
an intense excitement among the citizens Of
Hamilton who knew John Irwin and highly
respected him. The excited crowd were loud
in their denuneiation of Sylvester Irwin, the
murderer, and cried out to hang him. The
prisoner was taken out the back door, and safe
ly secured in the county Jail. His trial has
been set for Tuesday morning, the Sth, at 9
O'Clock. The coroner of Butler county was en-
gagged last evening in holding an inquest upon
the dead bodies of Mr.. and Mrs. Irwin

A Man KILLING his Son.

The st. Louis Dispatch OfAugust 4th has the
following: a-Af EEEfEA Ant
"Mr. White, living in the State of Kansas, on
the Shawnee road, twelve miles west of Kansas
City, killed his son few days ago, by knock
ing him upon the head with a club. Mr.
Whites elder son, aged about twenty five, bor-
rowed pony from his younger brother and rode
it two days. On the third day he wanted it
again; the younger son refused it; alteration
ensued, and the younger struck the elder, and he
began, in retaliation, throwing stones at the
younger. At this juneture the old man, under
excitement seized club and struck his elder
son on the head, iniicting injuries that caused
his death twelve hours after Our informant
says the old man is deeply afflicted at the act he
much laments Heretofore, he is reported to
have sustained good character"

EFFECT OF EMANCIPATION.

We find the following in the Louisville Jour
nal F.sz,1--rS 80
"On Saturday We had quite a full conversation
with Captain Surgeon, now of St Louis, and
well remembered here as a most popular and
intelligent steamboat commander upon the
western waters. We inquired of him as to the
effect of slave emancipation in his state. He
answered; The effect has been like magic;
since it became certain that the slaves were
about to be emancipated, and especially sines
they were actually and formally emancipated,
lands throughout Missouri have more than doub-
led in value and all the counties of the State
are literally swarming with migrants seeking
homes-we never saw anything like it before
Captain Sturgeon added: If you adopt the
amendment you viii see the same result in Ken
lucky. And we have not doubt oft. Ken
lucky is richer in soil and finer in climate than
any other State contiguous to her, and let her
but wash the one black plague-spot from her
robes, and she viii inhale strength from every
gale and drink it from every stream and foun-
tain. The price of greatness and power IS pro-
fered to her to-day; it is held up within halt
an arms length of her, where she can grasp IL
if she wiII and if she lets the occasion pass un-
improved, soon and most bitterly will she rue
her own folly and perversity.'

Brutal Outrage In stark County.
We ind the following in the Canton Rspa6

licdR:
On Friday last, about twilight, young and
highly respectable girl sixteen OF seventeen
years of age named Grant, started from her home
about three-fouTtEs of mile from Mt. Union,
for town, and after proceeding half the distance
was met by a man-Heaven- save the mark
named William Hannah; who stopped her and
made her an insulting proposition. Miss Grant
became alarmed started to run, but she was pur-
sued and caught by Hannah. The poor girf
struggled violently to free herself from the in
carnate devil, who when he found her nearly
match for himself in physical strength struck
her-it Is supposed with stone on the head
knocking her senseless, and while IN lifeless
condition succeeded-after tearing of nearly all
her clOthing-in accomplishing his hellish pur-
pose. ..',
The miserable wretch, who is a married man
and the father of three children, then went leis-
urely to his home, leaving his victim bIeed;ro
and insensible by the road side A neigh
boring farmer happening along, accom-
panied by his son, discovered her and convey
ed her home; where, after several hours she was
restored to consciousness, and related the facts
to her mother, who communicated them 10 the
authorities and Hannah was arrested, placed
under $1,000 bonds and brought to this city.
1t was with difficulty, we learn, that Hannah
was saved from the summary vengeance OF the
excited people, who threatened to lynch the dog
without ceremony.

however, at last became so overwhelming that
it could no longer be resisted. Mr.. Cessna will
