for the operation, and upon this she has been
paid $40. Williams detailed the whole proceed

that he subsequently admitted that he carried

BALTIMORE, Sept A.-The heavy weight Base
ball Club (the heaviest nearly three hundred
and the lightest two hundred and twenty five
pounds) had their baseball game yesterday
afternoon, at the Pastime Club grounds, and
played only three innings, leaving the game to
be completed next week. r-..
The novelty attracted very large crowd,
affording much fun, as neither party had ever
played before. One fellow who was deemed too
light they compelled to carry weights; another,
who weighed three hundred, was wheeled round
on a wheelbarrow. There was an immense
amount of putting and blowing, and a few awk-
ward tumbles, making complete 'grass-scrapers'
and ''daisy -wlpers." The championship. is yet
doubtful-whether it will be gained by the

Porter was convicted on the evidence OF Gene
rails Pope. Mcdowell, and Rob srts, Leutenant-
Colonel Thomas Smith, Captain Drake De Kay,
and others. The unanimous testimony OF these
officers was to the effect that Porter could have

that if he had done his duty the Rebel army

The fir ding of the court was, that Porter was

Yesterday morning the residents OF the plea

a state of unusual excitement by the report
Magdalena had committed suicide, at the house
of Mr.. Matthias Rahe, of that place, by taking
to the residence of Mr.. Rahe, and were horli-

facts in the case, SO far as known, are as fol-

tailor by occupation, has for years been labor
ing under mental delusion that he could dis
cover the secret OF perpetual motion, and has
been endeavoring to construct pump which,
when once set in motion, would force water
from well for an indefinite period. Thestudy
disturbed his mind, and his wife also becoming
imbued with the same idea, became deranged,
and few months since attempted to commit
suicide by jumping in the Monongahela river,
but was rescued and sent to Dixmont For
some time past, MIR. Woll, who has been drink
ing excessively, succeeded In having his wife
who had partially recovered her reason-re-
leased from Dixmont, and took her to his sons
residence. Mrs. Woll, not being satisfied with
the change, expressed a wish to return to the
Asylum, and on Wednesday morning she and
her husband left home with the avowed pur.
pose of going to Dixmont. Nothing further is
known of their movements, until about
O'Clock the same afternoon, when they were
drug store, and purchased ten cents worth of
arsenic, saying that he wanted it to poison rats.
IQey Jnen Went TO Gne mousse OF mr. R4ne (IOr-
merly manager of the Oakland Passenger Rail-
way), and asked permission to stop for the
night. Mrs Rahe was absent at the time but
upon returning she recognized Mrs. Woll as an
old acquaintance, and cheerfully complied
with the request. The couple retired early,
and during the night, MIR. Woll arose frequently
and went to the pump in the yard for water.
About o'clock yesterday morning the family
were aroused by Mr.. w oil crying for water, aud
