MURDER WILL OUT.-An exchange says
Over forty years ago, near Stony Brook bridge,
a mile from Pennington. New Jersey, the dead
body of a stranger was found, leaning against
tree, his eyes distorted as if he had died in
agony. No money or papers were found on
the body, and it was buried out OF sight, and
almost of memory, except among old citizens.
Recently the Manchester (England) Guardian
contained the dying statement of man named
Hulseman, confessing bis murder Of man by
the name of Eberhart in New Jersey. United
States. They were old acquaintance The
latter had 600. They started together on
pedestrian tour through Jersey, in search of
work; Huseman having lived some time in an
other State and Eberhart newcomer from
England, but neither of them known in New
jersey. While taking lunch the former gave
the latter drink of poisoned brandy which he
had brought along for the purpose, waited by
the victim until he died, put the body against
the tree, took the E2O0 and went on his way.
unobserved by any one. After forty years the
murder comes out by confession, 5000 miles
away from the scene of guilt The secret
was too great to keep.

received ofieial notice OF thirty-two murders,
including that of Col. Crane; OF thirteen as
saults with intent to kill, and of thirteen cut
RACES. Within the year rewards have been Of
fered for thirteen other murderers, but none of
these last have been arrested. OF the other
arrests made under his orders for murders and
other violence, thirteen have been taken out Of
his hands by the United states judges. He be.
lieves that the Kuklux Khan are attempting to
create q reign Of terror, with view OF affecting
the approaching elections, and thinks that
through either inability or unwillingness the
civil authorities are remiss In enforcing the
laws.
