pondence. don't know that the prisoner
ever called at my room before the occasion
to which / have referred.
Mr.. Young: Did you say anything on
the previous examination about his leav-
ing as the people were coming out of the
churches2
Witness No, think not.
Mr.. Young: Did you not say then that
he stayed with you until after o'clock
You are so reported in the papers.
Witness: don't remember saying that.
Did not you see the report before it ap-
peared in the Dispatch, from which l read :
Witness I did.
WHY. then, did you not correct it?
Witness Because had no rlghtto do so.
It was my impression then that the accused
stayed until o'clock; but since then my
memory has been refreshed. He certainly
left before sunset.
The witness was then subjected to a
most searching cross-examination by Mr..
Young in regard to the various facts stated
in his two examinations but nothing Of
interest was ELECTED.
To Mr.. Johnson My acquaintance with
the prisoners family commenced with
letter of introduction which | brought to
his sister. We very frequently receive
orders to deliver letters to none but par
ticular persons, and I therefore thought
nothing of Phillips's direction.
To Mr.. Young: I saw the prisoner on
the evening of his arrest, having received
message from him to bring down some
papers. l have never seen him unless some
of the officers were with me, and have not
spoken to him about this evidence.
To the court: The prisoner gave no rea-
son for this order to give the letters to no
one but himself.
The court then adjourned, and the re-
manning witnesses for the defence will be
called at ii O'Clock this morning. The
crowd thronging the courthouse yester-
day was very large, and profound silence
manifested the interest taken by the spec
tators in the proceedings.

Shocking Death by suffocation.

The following are the details of the
death by sufocation of two servant girls at
the Moravian Seminary for young ladies at
Bethlehem, Penn, on Sunday night week:
Seven servant girls slept together in n
room in the basement, under the seminary
dining room, where there was large stove
the gas from which, owing to the damp
heavy weather, was forced down an open
fue in the chimney into the room where
the girls were sleeping. One of the girls
did not retire till about one o'clock, and on
entering the room noticed blood on the
walls, heard groaning by those asleep in
the room, and was somewhat affected by
the gas. Dropping her lamp, she ran,
greatly afrighted, to the housekeepers
room and told her that the girls had beeu
murdered. The houskeeper and her two
daughters became panic stricken, locked
themselves in their room, and did not even
attempt to alarm the watchmen on the
streets, which they could easily have done
from their window, andremained paralyzed
with fear till morning. The unfortunate
servant girls were thus left without relief
When daylight gave the housekeeper
courage to alarm the house terrible scene
presented itself. Hannah Hawk and Susan
Manhertz who slept respectively at each
end of the room, were found dead, the pill
lows and bedding despatched with blood
Eliza Fehr, the cook, was on the floor,
aud, it seems, had been awakened by the
screams and groanings of the other women
and got up, lit Candle, when losing con-
seriousness, she fell and remembered no
more till restored to consciousness the next
day. The other four, whose beds were in
the center Of the room, were found insen-
sible, but were soon restored, and are now
well; the others are not yet out of dan
ger.

Road-kakind.

The following hints upon this subject
will be found worthy Of consideration; and
as in the Spring much time is devoted to
repairing and making roads, we give them
for the benefit Of farmers and others:
"In road-makiug, one great requisite is
the ready and total removal of all water.
There cannot be good road where water
stands by the side of, or on it. If the
bitches have no ready outlet, the road bed
will soak up the moisture more or less by
capillary attraction, aad thus remain rutted
and muddy. 1T is vain to think Of having
a good road on a subsoil filed with stag
nant water Even on side hills, if water
remains on the upper side, it will injure the
road by passing under. Provide then, il
possible, for the thorough drainage Of
your roads, either by surface or covered
ditcLes See that the road-bed is evenly
and Slightly rounded, SO that the water can
readily find its way to the drains. If the
soil is cloyey or loamy, give it few inches
of gravel or even coarse sand, aud you will
have fine aud pleasant passage way. II
the soil is sandy, it needs an addition OF
clay to correct it, and this will correct il
SO that good roads may be had over the
lightest sandy soil"

Warming TO the Intemperats.

A terrible accident occurred on the
Michigan Central railroad, in Michigan
City, on Wednesday night. A German
by the name of Ferdinand Wopshall, liv-
ing short distance east of the railroad
bridge over Trail creek, was found the
next morning on the railroad about three
quarters Of mile from town, most shock
iDgly mangled. 1t appears that he left
town on Wednesday evening intoxicated,
aud was run over by the night express CO.
ing east, his body lying on the track all
night, and was run over by several other
trains before he was picked up. When
found he could only be recognized by por-
tons of his clothing. His arms, legs, feet,
head and body were so torn and scattered
about that it was almost impossible to
gather up the fragments. An inquest was
held yesterday, the verdict being that "ihe
deceased came to his death by his own
carelessness." Wopshall was about forty
Eve years of age, and leaves four children.
Intemperancc has figured largely on our
mortality list, and this adds another fear

Fall OF the Mexican Empire.

We have highly important official news
from Mexico. The event which has been
so often announced, and SO long expected.
the final and complete overthrow of Maxi
milan, has at last happened. On the
morning Of the 18th inst. Macmillan and
his Generals, after battle in which they
were defeated, surrendered Internationally
to the Liberals. There is report that
Juarez had ordered the Arch duke and his
officers to be shot, but it is hardly entitled
to credence. Few particulars of the final
act have been made known, but the news
comes from different sources, and in such
a manner, that there is left DO doubt Of
its truth.

RELIGIOUS Debate.

Rev. j. ii. Lozier, Methodist, and B.
Il. Foster, Universalist, have been CORES
ponding through the Indianapolis Journal
in regard to a religious debate upon ques-
tons Of difference between the denomina-
tons they represent. Propositions have
been made on both sides as to the rules by
which they are to be governed, the questions
to be discussed, &C., which appear to be salts
factory, and will no doubt be accepted.
The questions for discussion will be as fol-.
lows:
LIST. Do the Scriptures and reason teach
the doctrine of the final holiness and happi-
ness of all mankind? Mr.. Foster affirms.
I'd Do the Scriptures and reason teach
the doctrine Of the endless punishment of
any part Of the human family? Mr..
Lozier atfirms.
1t is proposed that the time consumed
on each evening shall be two hours, be-
ginning precisely at eight o'clock; each dis
putant occupying thirty minutes alternate
ly. On the third evening of each propo-
sition, the afirmant to have a closing
speech Of twenty minutes.

Senator Wilson's Tour.

Senator Wilson has returned from the
South. lIc has been thirty one days there.
During that time he has made twenty four
political speeches, besides half dozen
moro on temperance, etc. He comes back
in good health, and reports himself greatly
pleased with tho trip. He says he was
everywhere courteously received, and is
more than ever convinced that the Rcpub-
licans can carry majority of the Con-
gressional Districts in the South. He will
urge that the funds of our Committees be
expended mainly in paying speakers, and
organization. rather than sustaining news
papers or circulating expensive documents,
and thinks 1t would be well to give en-
ploymeatio a number Of colored men Of
good local standing.

REGISTRATION.

Gen. Ord has appointed registers in
thirtysthree counties of Arkansas, and will
now go to Mississippi to complete the work
in that State. 1t is expected the whole
machinery o. registration in Arkansas will
be in working order before the end of the
month.
Gen. Pope has issued general order on
the matter Of registration. The States of
Alabama aud Georgia are redistricted, and
one negro placed on every board of regis
tration. Registers are compelled to take
the test oath. and are bound to explain to
voters their rights and privileges. Any
illegal interference with the freedom of
registration, or any oppression of the freed
men on account of registration or voting,
will subject the guilty party to arrest and
trial By military commission. In case of
any disturbance at the places of registra-
ton, or the polls, the civil authorities are
to be called on to suppress it, and if they
fail the military will be called in. and the
civil authorities who SO fail will he arrested
and tried by the military.

The Madison Courier gives the pariicu'
lars ola double tragedy which occurred on
the Goth inst. near that city. Preston
Christie and James McClelland had been
specializing in corn, and the former had
lost considerable amount of money. He
blamed Christie for this, and claimed
81. 600 from hi;ltfRr which he went to law
On Monday he went to Cbrisiie's house to
make settlement. but did not find Linn at
home. lie, however, met him on a road,
and asked him TO settle his account.
Christie made an evasiye answer, where.
upon McClelland drew a revolver and shot
him, inAicting a wound from which he
soon died. McClelland then rode toward
home, and toldan acquaintance whom he
met what he had done. lie requested him
to inform the Sheriff of the affair, that
he might come and arrest him. On reach.
ing home he put up his horse, and then
went into the yard and shot himself. He
survived only few hours, and was dying
when the Sheriff arrived.

Favorable Reports from the South,

Late adyices received at tho War De-
partment from the military districts in the
South, represent matters as in very favor
able condition.
Inspector Sewell, oil the Freedmeu's
Bureau, has returned from an extended
tour. lie is decided in the opinion that
no such general suffering prevails as CON-
plants from that section indicate.
A correspondent Of the New York
Herald, writing from Winchester. Va, says
that in spite oil the ravases Of the war, and
almost total destruction of the fences,
houses, &c, the farmers Of the Shenandoah
Valley will probably have the finest aud
largest wheat crop ever raised in that re-
rivn. The lower counties are filling up
with Pennsylvania Germans, who are quiet
ly buying all tho farms they can got.
