DEATH OF PETER BoYD. - Coroner
Erickson held an inquest yesterday
evening, on the body of Peter Boyd, the
crazy negro who imagined his wife had
bewitched him, and on whose person
over two thousand dollars we're found
when arrested. The jury returned a
verdict that he came to his death from
natural causes. He had been sinking
gradually for some time, and scarcely
ever sleeping and continually raving, it
was no wonder he succumbed.

make you an ointment with twenty

to the face every night; at the same time
keep the bowels gently open with Ro-

neighborhood where they are situated.
Last night large party OF American
citizens of African scent amused them
selves with break. down near the corner
of Fourth and Commerce streets, and
about two o'clock they became very
noisy, one of them firing off a pistol. A
squad of the police entered and stopped
their fun by marching twenty eight men
to the station-house. The women were
allowed to go home, and some few of the
men present made their escape. This
morning the proprietors of the establish
ment were fined ten dollars each, and all
the rest but three FIVE dollars each. We
hope the police will continue this good
work so well begun and rid our city of
these nuisances.
