AT LAST.


The Murderer of Mary MOhrnann FOun6-The
l1ndinK of True Bill by the Grand Jury.
In our late editions of yesterday we made
mention of the fact of the murderer of Mary
Mohrmann having at length been detected and
of the finding of true bill against him by
the Grand Jury. The facts of the case were
then in our possession, but the lateness pre-
vented their publication.
The horrible fate of little Mary Mohrmann,
more than eighteen months ago, has been
often adverted to in these columns. A new
act in the terrible drama is now open. The
mystery which surrounded her rG0ts8enaent
and foul murder is dissipated, and the fright
full crime is fixed indubitably upon the bar
Der, Hanlon, who now serves out five years
sentence in the County Prison for an
attempted outrage upon little girl residing
on Oxford street.
At an early hour on the morning of the
8th of September, 1868, some workmen pass
ing over a lot bounded by Sixth, Fifth, and
Dauphin streets and Susquehanna avenue,
were Mortified by the discovery of the body
of the murdered child in a pool of water,
not greater than three inches in depth. The
last seen of Mary was on Sunday evening
September 9Th about half-past seven
o'clock. During her absence, her mother
lamented her as one lost; far from her
thoughts was the remotest idea that her child
had been strangled. The remains presented
revolving spectacle, the face being dis
colored, the neck bearing yet the impress of
the fingers that had tightly pressed it, while
J the underclothing was torn and bloody.

down. A resolution was adopted giving per-

to interest the teachers and the children in
the merciful object which the society was

To the Editor Of the "St. CrOix Avis"
Dear Sir

In the "St. Croix Avis" of the 9TH inst.
No. 2 we have read an article containing
an eulogy on Councillor Rahr for the
construction of a new passenger-wharf in
Frederiksted, and it is stated that His
Exce1ency the Governor has inspected
the work and expressed himself highly
satisfied both with the plan and execution.
We certainly can't grudge Councillor
Rahr the praise bestowed upon him and
he may, for what we know and under
stand, fully have deserved it, but with
all regard for the judgement of His Ex-
c%elleucy the Governor ever in this branch
of works, it appears to ue, that il would
have given more satisfaction to the public
in general of the work. being altogether
of new and peculiar kind, has been in
spected Of scientific men or men versed in
works Of this kind.

The sessions of the Ecnmenical Coun-
Gil will be resumed on Wednesday, the
9th Of January, The French Bishops
have protested against the Popo's inter-
ference in the deliberations of the Coun-
Gil. The Spanish Bishops, both home
and colonial, sustain the Pope....-.-.
Another reason is given to-day by the
Ecumenical Council for the adjournment
of the sittings to the 9Th. The Bishops
were under the necessity of abandoning
the Cathedral of ST. Peter on account of
the acoustic imperfections of the hall.
They have therefore resolved TO hold their
sessions hereafter at another place and
as this cannot be put in order for several
days, the adjournment was necessary.

Paris, December 90.
1t is rumored that the Empress was in
strumental in having the Spanish refugees
ordered out of France, but the report is
unfounded. The intermeddling of these
refugees with revolutionists here was the
real cause Of their expulsion. In tho
Corps Legislatiff to-day M Henri Roche
fort addressed an Interpolation TO the
Government relative TO the expulsion
from French territory ofthe political re-
fugee Senior Paul Angelo, a Deputy to the
Spanish Cortes. He said the Government
permitted ex-queen Isabella and the Car
lists to consplre in this country against
Spain, but exercised all it's severity against
the Spanish Republicans. - General Banks
leaves Paris tonight on his return to the
United States. He had a long and very
interesting audience with the Emperor
Napoleon yesterday at the Tnileries. The
Emperor expressed his earnest wish for
a satisfactory understanding with the
United States on postal matters and other
things equally important. His Majesty
regretted that his Ministers had not full
filled his desires in all these respects.
London.-It is reported that France is
urging the Great Powers to disarm, and
offers to set the example; but Berlin jour-
nails discredit the report. The "Times''
to-day blames the Government for its va
c~lllation at Londonderry, in protecting
rather than forbidding the display. The
result, however, the "Times' admits, was

A Sad Lesson.

That was a sadly suggestive death
which occurred In the Harrisburg
prison short time since. The de-
ceased was man In the very prime
of manhood-the SON of most excel
lent parents; he was carefully trained
at home, sent to Europe to finish his
education and complete him In all
the accomplishments; a young man
of remarkable fine talents, he stud
led and graduated with high honors
In law, medicines, and theology; he
was learned In the Languages, became
q Professor In one of our colleges,
was skillful surgeon, inherited q
fine fortune, became low drunkard
and yagrant, made himself a common
nuisance, and had to be locked up In
Jail a. protection to the community,
was discharged from jail only to be
returned again and again, until about
ten days ago he returned for the last
time, and died on the next morning
a raving maniac from the effects of
his frequent and violent drunken de-
bauches. This was the end OF Pro-
fessor P. s. K, formerly Of York
county and Of Gettysburg. The
name. however, Is nothing; the les
son Is everything. How many of the
brilliant young men who have en-
tered on the same path, will take
Eeed, and save themselves and their
families from the shame Of such a
career and such a death - Exchange.

Force OF Habit.

Habit Is everything. We have all
heard Of the story of the man who
slept over bakers oven for twenty
years, then changed his lodgings,
but had to go back to the oven before
he could 60 to sleep.
A case illustrating the same prin.
ciple recently occurred in Ohio. A
city man, accustomed to lodge or
one of the noisest streets, visited o
country friend. Too much quiet de.
stroyed his rest at night. His friend
felt for his distress, and said he
would try to relieve 1t. Accordingly
he went to neighbours and procur-
ed bass drum, which he beat under
the fellows bed room window, and
had his boy run squeaking wheel
barrow up and down OH the porch,
while his wife played GA the piano,
and his servant pounded on the
chamber door with the tongs. In
this manner the sufferer was enabled
to get two or three hours of quite re-
freshing sleep, though 1t was heavy
on the family.
