of your instruments. .-.rf.Jt

CRIMINAL TERM.-BARRows, J, PRESIDING.
FRIDAY.-In the case of State VS.. Charles Leon
ard, indicted for being common seller, the jury
were unable to agree upon n verdict. They stood
eleven for conviction and for acquittal. We I'M
derstand it will be tried again. at this term before
the first jury.
The trial of Hiram Gould, for compound larceny
was resumed. Counsel or respondent endeavored
to shut out the confession made to the City Marshal
by the lad who is said to be only II years OF age,
on the ground that the statements made to the City
Marshal by the boy were made in consequence of
threats, &c. This was overruled by the Court and
Mr. Head testified as to the statements made to
him by Hiram the day after he was arrested.
The evidence tor the State being put in, Mr.. Will
liams opened for the defence and Hiram was placed
on the stand. His testimony was directly contrary
to the stat ements he made to the City Marshal and
he denied having any connection with the larceny.
The lad stood the examination, direct and cross as
well as older persons placed In that situation.
The theory of the defense is that the boy could not
have committed the larceny, and that his move
ments and whereabouts on that evening will be
shown 10 the satisfaction of the jury SO as to pre-
clude any possibility OF his guilt. rs-'nuaa -a
The testimony of his brother and mother, and of
some visitors at the house of Mr.. Gould on the eve
ming of the robbery, was introduced in order to
show that the lad was at home at the time the lar
ceny was alleged to have been committed. The tes-
tinlony for the defense Is not all out,

CAPTAIN HENLEY's CoNDITIoN.-Thursday
it was reported that Capt. Henley, of Cape
Elizabeth, who was stabbed in an ARRAY on
Preble street, Saturday evening, was failing
and that there were no hopes of his recovery
He bled two quarts from his wound that day
some internally-which of course weakened
him very much and left him in reduced state.
A telegram was sent to his father who had
gone to Boston with the wounded mans YES
sci, for him to return as soon as possible, as in
all probability the patient could not live TWEEN
ty-four hours. Yesterday, however, things
took more favorable turn, and DR.. Shannon,
the attending physician, thought there was
yet chance for his recovery.
1t seems that on the evening of this disas-
trous affair, Capt. Henley, accompanied by one
of his crew, came up from his schooner, the
ELIZA Frances" with the intention of going
to the entertainment at Deering Hall. After
they found it was not a theatre they c,nclud-
ed they would not 20 in, but return to their
vessel. Coming down stairs they were accost-
ed at the foot by one of two young men that
were standing theie, who asked for ticket to
go into the show. He was told by Capt. Hen
icy tud1 no Hdu Ho tickot, WHICH, buo IellOW III
mediately asked for money to buy one. After
being informed by the Captain that he could
not furnish him with money, and that he had
DO more than he wanted for his own use, the
young man made use of some very abusive
language, which resulted in a scufflee between
him and the fell1w who had come with Capt.
Henley, and who was at the time partially in
toxicated. They were separated here, when
they passed round to Preble street ann clinch-
ed again. Quite a crowd had now collected,
and Capt. Henley seeing that il was getting to
be serious, stepped in for the purpose of part
ing them, when he was stabbed in the side, as
has been before stated. Whether he was stab
bed by the fellow engaged in the scufie, or by
some outside friend of that individual, is not
yet known for certainty. raa ...
Capt. Henley has many warm friends, and
stands as a man of exemplary character in the
community where he lives. He served three
years in the First Maine Cavalry, and at the
end of that time received an honorable dis
charge.

VIM. WITHERs, JR.-The gentlemen
composing the orchestra OF the New
Memphis theater, on night before last
serenaded their leader, Prof. william
Withers. Jr., as a testimony OF their APP
preciation of his musical talents n as a
gentleman. We understand they had a
CAV time, enjoying themselves with
music and dancing until early morn, and
will long be remembered by every par
ticipant as one of their happiest mo
ments. As Mr.. Withers is about to leave
US, we consider it only just to aeknoWl-
edge the rare musical treats be afforded
our citizens during his stay amongst US.
Mr.. Withers ranks high in his profession,
not only as leader of an orchestra and
performer on the violin, but also as com
POSER. His 1.-THE Girl l Left Behind
Mel with variations, is considered
by professional musicians equal to some
Of Vieuxtemps' best efforts, both as tC
execution and taste, and his Louisa ,
| pOlka, Erich Walter and "Cai
| Bird polka, particularly the last, are
musical gems Of which Strauss or La
bitzky might well be proud Of. The
many friends of Mr.. Withers will b
sorry to learn that he leaves Us in a few
days, having accepted the leadership a
the Broadway theater, New York
where, we feel confident, he viii sooE
