Harvey Gibbs was yesterday on his trial
for the murder of q man named jenkins, in
April, 1866, on flatboat at the head of
Julia street. Deceased and accused were
both Western men, and had been here only
few days. Jenkins was terribly cut about
the head with a hatchet on o tlatboat.
When taken to the hospital, Jenkins, while
in very low state, asserted that Gibbs was
the man who had committed the deed. The
testimony was somewhat conflicting, and
the jury, up to ten o'clock, had failed to
arrive at q verdict,

The Late william M. Swain.

The Pbiladelphia Press psys . well de-
served tribute Of respect to the late Mr..
Swain. He was unquestionably enc OF the
leading newspaper men Of this country,
possessing a keenness Of perception and
foresight which admirably qualified him for
the position he occupied. He had some
peculiar traits of character and many wise
business principles. He never fixed price
on other mems goods. The following anec-
dotss are related Of him:
A paper dealer met him one day in the
street.
"Mr. S." said he, ~ have some excellent
white paper Of the size Of the Ledger. DO
you wish to buy :"
| "Yes sir" was the reply.
"What are you willing to give for it!'
was the next inquiry.
Precisely the worth Of il sir; neither
more nor less" was the rejoinder.
ooh, of course But mean, Mr.. 8, what
can YOU afford to give me for III"
Double price, if choose; but don't"
.But fix the price, sir"
al never put price on another mani
goods. II you don't know the value o. youI
own paper you should not attempt to dis
pose Of it. Ifyou do, you are wasting my
time and yoar own in idle circumlocution'
to sc, the advantage of me. Tell me you
price. II it suits, we'll; il not, you MAJ
find some other customer.
A gentleman once called upon him with
an advertisement Of . benefit for . pool
widow with several helpless children. "Hov
much for the advertisement, under the cir
cumstances p said he. Just what i
Gomez to-" said Mr.. s.; "business IL busi
ness, sir; charity il another question.
; "But to poor widow, sir, every dolla
saved is matter Of serious moment to he
family "Businsss is business, l repeat it
sir. What choose 10 give in charity il ny
own private affair. Ny business ha
nothing to do with il" "Then you vii
, take no less y mot q cent. SIR III,
gentleman paid the bill reluctantly amount
, ing, to perhaps, two dollars, and was going
out Of the Office rejecting rather severely il
his own mind upon the parsimony of Mr.
, Swain, when the latter stopped him, "D
you know this widow Is she honest an'
deserving p "She is. SIR" Mr.. s. slipps'
"a ten dollar bill in the gen,eman's hand
and, turning on his heel, walked away, say
ing, business is business"
