MORE ABoUr THE MURDER. DIR,
Thompson informs us that he made a
post norton examination of the body
of the woman who was found buried in
a lot beyond Tenth Street, on Chestnut,
on Sunday evening. he gives it as his
opinion that she was, at the time of her
death, about twenty years of age, if a
woman of ill-repute, and if g virtuous
woman, she may have been older, but
there was nothing certain as to age. The
body had SO far undergone decomposi-
ton that it was impossible to detect
marks of violence on any part of the
body certainly, if there had been any
She had on but a chemise, made from
ordinary unbleached domestic, ;he only
article Of clothing found. Diligent
search was made for the head, but ii
cosld not be found.

yesterday without rendering a verdict.

ARREsrED.-Sheriff Darling yester-
day arrested the inmates of house OF
ill-fame, situated on Chestnut street be-
yond twelfth, on suspicion Of knowledge
Of the murder of the woman whose body
was fonnd in that vicinity on Sunday.
The names of the parties are as follows:
Fannie Brown, Jane Morris, Maggie
Weathers, Mary Lambert, Ellen Coul.
ter, Mellie Van Blaricum and Accie
Millman. There were left in the house
young girl about sixteen years of age,
who WAS the mother OF child but few
days old, and who had been seduce,i by
q steamboat man, we were told; and two
little children belonging to Mollie Van
Blaricum, whose husband was some
time since sentenced to the penitentiary
from this county, and is now confined
there.
In consideration of the fact that the
girl, her child, end the two children re-
qnired attention, Accie MilIman was
admitted to bail, and the balance COM
mitted to jail to await trial to-day.
The fact that the body was found
within spare and half Of this brothel,
would naturally lead to suspicion of the
inmates of the house, but whether any
thing can be learned in relation to the
mystery, remains to be seen. Every
effort viii be used tounravel this strange
and tragic affair, and It is hoped the
efforts that are now being made may
lead to the detection of the perpetrators
of the horrible deed.

resolution passed by the Official Board
of the Trinity M. E. Church, approving
our conduct in the management of the
building of that church; and we regret
exceedingly that it is not in our power
to return them that kind Of an acknow-
ledgment which they are entitled to for
all their kindness to and confidence in
as, and all the return We can make
Ia to say that their kindness is fully aps
preciated by MS; furthermore, that we
have formed a copartnarship for the
purpose of carrying on the building
business in all its branches, and that, il
we have been able to give satisfaction in
the past, we think, by uniting ourselves
in business, we will be better able in the
future; and we are determined to exert
ourselves to the utmost to do the best

A GEE4T EeUEsFRIAs.-We had the
pleasure. yesterday Of call from Mr..
Eaton Stone, the great equestrian, nov
travelling with Lipman's Circus. He is
not only one Of the oldest and most
celebrated equestrians in the United
States, but is highly accomplished and
intelligent gentleman; and no actor Of
artist in the country can boast of as
many valuable testimonials from his
friends. Among these are an auto
graphic testimonial from the editors Of
all the Eastern journals, and a gold
medal from his friends in the city of
New York--Worth, with its mountings of
diamonds and rnbies, some $500 or
$1,000. 1t is unquestionably the most
exquisite piece of engraving and tasteful
workmanship we ever saw 1t is SOU
venir Of which any man might we'll feel
proud.
We regret that Mr.. Stones favorite
mare is lame, from accident, which pre-.
vents him from giving fair specimen
of his great ability as an equestrian.

NEGRO ARREsTED.-Yesterdsy even
ing Captain Dazzling arrested negro
and confined him in Jail, who, we are
told, confesses that he buried the woman
found last Sunday without head. he
states that be was met in the street by
two men, some time since, who compel
led him to carry the body Of white
woman to the place where the one. in
question was found, and there bury her.
Hin story is not altogether probable
one, but his arrest, it is thought, may
possibly lead 10 the discovery Of the
murderer It's due Mr.. Samuel Day to
say that he was instrumental in the dis
covery Of this probable clue to the per-
petrator of the deed. We are in posses
sion Of other facts that we do not deem
prudent lot present to publish, which
facts may probably have q bearing on
| the case when fully investigated.
