JUDGMENT PRONOUNCED.

Salnaye said that he was not capable of the acts
with which he was accused. His counsel made a
strong appeal and made every effort TO destroy the
accusation, quoting frequently the position of JEFF
ferson Davis In the late rebellion in the United
States. After short address from the prosecutor,
one more appeal was made by Salnaye's counsel, NJ.
Valcn, and the trial closed. The members OF
the Court then adjourned for deliberation, which
lasted hour at the expiration of which the judg-
ment of the Court was pronoIfnced: 80

van Salnave, aged A. soldier and ex President of
Hayti, guilty OF all the charges preferred against

Salnave arrived at Port-au- Prince on the 18TH and
was Immediately put on his trial by the revolution
airy tribunal composed Of General p. Lorquet, Pres
ident; NJ. de Nazere, Vice President; NJ. Prezeau,
NJ. Louis Aime and NJ. Darius Adam; NJ Camille
Nau, Public Prosecutor. The trial commenced at
o'clock, in the presence Of large number of the
civil authorities and the National Guard. The ac
eused was introduced by the President saying, Syl
van Salusve, ex-Presdent of Hayti, aged 4S years,
born at Cape Haytien and living at PortauP Prince.
PREsIDENT-Haye you made a choice of some one
to defend you?
sALNAvE-I wish to be assisted by Messrs Valcin
and Lavaud.
NJ. Layaud declined TO defend the accused The
President of the Council then designated NJ. Jair
of Jscmel to act with NJ Valcin. Salnave then had
interview with his councillors, after which the De
putty Marshal read the charges TO the prisoner which
occupied considerable time. the most important be-
ing that he "annulled the Constitution and named
himself protector of the Republic;" that he asso-
ciated himself with deprayed characters, and held
on TO the Government by fraud and force; therefore
Sylvan Salnave is accused of high treason devasta
tiou, pillage with arms, committing assassinations,
and is now amendable for these crimes.

John Miller ground in his now cider
mill, seventeen bushels Of apples in six
minutes one day last week.
Howard Jones has raised one hundred
bushels of onions this season on less than
quarter of an acre of land. Ills .onons

The stories about somebody's having
seen wild animal in this town and other
places, have tendency to make timid per-
sons apprehensivc Of danger especially
whilo travelling through woods during the
hours Of darkness, and even those who arc
not easily frightened are inclined 70 be
cautious. Not long ago Steven Reed was
returning home mt night from his weeks
labor, and whilo walking along the road
near grove OF trees, he was startled by
the srowl Of some wild animal. Instantly
his hair rose on end "a the idea flashed
through his mind that West Brattlcboro
panther catamount, lynx or something of
that kind might he near him and that his
life was in jeopardy. Again the animal
growled fercely, the noise indicating that
it was close at hand, and Reed thinking
that discretion would be the better part of
valor determined to flee from the impend-
ing danger. But his courage returned with
the thought that he might Improve the OPP
portunity of becoming the hero of pan
ther fight, so he armed himself with a good
club and sought out the animals retreat.
The night was dark as Erebus, and it was
quite difficult TO ascertain the location of
the enemy. At length he espied some
thing moving about on the limb of a tree,
and like David Crockett he climbed up to
sec what it was. The animal climbed high
er as Reed assembled the tree until it reach
ed the terminus of large limb when 1t
faced about and made ready for battle.
Nothing daunted by the show of fight he
climbed to a favorable position crossed his
feet under the limb, and with the club
grasped firmly in both hands, swung him
self round in range of the animal and dealt
it tremendous blow that sent it whirling
to the ground. He at once descended. and
after satisfactory examination of the dead
animal came TO the conclusion that he had

The election in the Old Bay State next
week is exciting rather more than usual
interest There are four parties in the field
with their candidates-the Republican, the
Democratic, the Prohibitory, and the Labor
party. Besides these those who are in favor
of woman suffrage are actively laboring to
secure from all these parties as many MEM
bers of the Legislature as possible. A ma
iority of the candidates of the four parties
named have declared themselves in favor
of woman suffrage, Gov Clatlin among the
number. Wendell Phillips is candidate for
Governor of two parties, the Labor and
Prohibitory; John q. Adams of the Demo-
cratic party, and VIM. Caflin of the Repub-
lican party. The success of the latter is
well assured. The Democrats have no
chance in Massachusetts; Wendell Phillips
is out of his sphere, and William Claflin is
very near, il not entirely right, on all the
important issues Of the day; is "a man Of
good character, and well fitted for the Office
of chief magistrate of that enlightened
State.
