Child RaYish ed and murdered-The
V1iltan Unknovvn-Suspicio &c.
The unusually quiet village of Fairfield,
In Greene county, was thrown into wild
state of excitement Wednesdaynight Goth
inst.,) by. the ravishment and murder of a
little girl of eight years, the daughter of
Mr.. Joseph F.Kneisly. The circumstances
Of this hellish outrage are las follows. On
Wednesday evening, the little girl, aEm-
ma, the unfortunate victim, in company
with an elder sister, visited the house
OF Mr.. Arthur johnson, both families
living in the VILLAGE About six so'elock
the elder sister returned home, little Emma
having been seen on the rear porch but a
few minutes before-seen perhaps for the
last time, living. save by the brutal villain,
who, forsthe momentary qualification OF a
fiendish lust, foully murdered her, and en-
veloped her once joyous home in the deep
est gloom. After a search of four hours
her body was discovered in stable on the
premises . of u Mr.. johnson at 9whose1
house she had last been seeD.-
Her body was in a sitting pos
tare, the lower limbs cramped. She
was rigid and cold, having been deadqapd
pdrently about four hours. Her neck bore
evident marks of strangulation, and also
the imprint of bite, the teeth marks be-,
ing peculiar and plainly visible.s As before
stated, she had been fiendishly outraged
and to make the crime even more diaboE5
cat-riI- posslDfe, tue acc. IN the FUpfn-
ion of the physicians, was perpe-
trated after life was extinct! In the
midst of the intense excitement, suspicion
seemed to center on a half-witted
fellow named johnson, a son of the gentle
man on whose premises the dead body was
found, but no evidence was brought out
before the coroner's investigation, tnat
would make it probable that he is the
guilty one. Justice Bennett at once
empanneled coroner's jury, who heard
the testimony of several witnesses, but
eliciting nothing giving the least clue
to the murderer, rendered a verdict in
accordance with the foregoing statement.
johnson, the half-witted fellow spoken of,
is 70 years of age, and has hitherto been
regarded harmless and inoffensive. The
casting of suspicion upon him without any
substantial basis is cruel. The association
of his name with the crime is sheer surmise
That such a crime should be COM
mitted in daylight, ina stirring vii
lige, and the perpetrator long remain
unknown, almost surpasses belief. 1t
is to be hoped the truth of the declaration
-''murder will out" will be verified in this
case. The family of Mr.. Kneisly is well
known in this county, and is highly re-
spected. II is also proper to add that the
family of MIR. Johnson are worthy and re-
spectacle people, and whom sorrow has,
smitten with heavy hand, in the implica-
ton by suspicion of an unfortunate son
and brother in the shocking tragedy
ton journal. -i-.1 =

Radical Heeps.

Uriah Heep was not nearly so tumble as
some of the Radical leaders have lately be-
come. Old Mr.. Stevens of Pennsylvania, is
oppressed by painful fear lest he may OBJ
trude his opinions too often in public mat
only desires to be buried in some simple in
closure, and to have inscribed over his re-
mains the epitaph, sHere lies General
who saved the lives of his soldiers at Fort
Fisher" and it might be added, who saved
several spoons and other things at New
Orleans. The modesty of these men, in
comparison with their past wants and de-
mands, say up to yesterday, is really affect
ing. eFse- I-

In Mondays Daily Messenger there
appeared a call for a town caucus, on
Saturday evening next, to elect dele
gates to the Montpelier Convention.
lhis call was signed by gentlemen
who were the St Adams members of the
nominating committee at the Republi
can County Convention, held at Shell
don last summer BY what authority
the call is made we know not; indeed
we are told that but small portion
even of this self constituted commit
tee were consulted, while others who
were consulted did not give their as
sent and two of them did not know
anything about the matter until they
saw their names in print AS all arc
agreed as to who shall be nominated
for Governor, perhaps the matter is
not worth abiding to; we only do il
to show the disgusting oliiciousness of
certain parties. We notice that the

we would ask if it has been withdrawn
