lures they commenced to press Il, asunndI
the police, who with the greatest difficulty
kept the prisoner in their'midst. ,ii
when near the corner Of Front and Val
leio streets IN eSpressman launched q
halter from his wagon, with the injunction
to use it at the next lamp-post. The rope
was eagerly snatched up and passed toithe
centre, and was only by the most strenuous
exertions and the frequent use of force that
the mans neck was kept from the noose.,
All the way up to the City Hall this WAS
kept up. Numbers of women focked around
him, and were even bolder in their attacks
than the men, throwing themselves boldly
in the way, and endeavoring to get hold OF
his clothes. When the corner of Dunbar
allev was reached the street was packed as
full as it could hold for distance of two
blocks or more, and the prevailing sentl-
ment appeared to be Hang himl :" Hang
him !" ,"..
THE BODY AT THE MORGUE. l.
In the evening the coroner's office, on
Market street, was visited by hundreds
eager to see the remains of the poor little
victim. They had been neatly dressed and
laid on @ large marble dissccting table
the hands folded calmly over the breast,
and an expression of placid repose on the
little face. The visitors were evidently
much affected, particularly the women,
who wept copious tears at the sad and pitia-
BILE sight. .., r.
9-s. FUNERAL OF THE MURDERED CHILD. !,
The scene at Lockhart & 0'Brien's beg
gars description, and the interest mani
tested in the sad affair could hardly be
overestimated. The little one was robed in
white, and laid out in the back parlor of
the establishment at the request of the
mother. The child has fair complexion,
regular features, and, with her light-brown
hair brushed back and confined with strip
of white ribbon, look the embodiment of
purity and innocence. Strong men shook
with emotion while gazing upon the
body, and mothers drew their children
closer to them after beholding the sad sight.
The remains were visited by over six thou
sand people, many of whom manifested a
desire to contribute something towards the
relief of the destitute family. +"

A Jolly Elopement.

The wife of farmer residing
near Buffalo, N. Y, recently be-
came so much enamored of cow
doctor who went to attend her hus.
bands. cattle. that she proposed
to elope with him TO a distant
State. He informed the husband
about the mattor, and, much to
his surprise, the latter told him to
crafty her little whim. 1t was
then arranged that be should meet
her on the outskirts of the farm.
In the mean time the husband
persuaded him to change clothes,
and when the time arrived for the
elopement, he (the husband) was
on handJoIn the dark
ness she mistook him for her lover,
and the 'jokeD was not discovered
until their arrival at one of the
Buffalo hotels. The cow-docter
was on hand with his own wife,
and between the four of them they
to do justice to an excel
lent supper and make away with
several bottles of wine. If elope-
ments were usually to have such
a jolly termination, the divorce
market would soon be obliged to
close for want of brsiness.

Terrors Of the Earth
quake.

A writer in Harper's. Magazine,
speaking ofthe terrors of the earth.
quake, says:
An earthquake, in Its most de.
structive mood, usually seems to
strike the solid ground a heavy
blow from beneath. This is by
far its most fatal form. Nothing
can resist the conclusion. The
earth itself seems to rise into the
air the strongest buildings start
upwards, crumble into ruins, and
fall in a confused heap upon their
occupants; the land slides away
from its accustomed place, and
whole fields and towns are driven
through the air to the tops of the
hills or to some distant region ;
men and cattle are shot out as from
a catapault, and fly like missiles
over the land until they fall,
bruised and bleeding, upon the
earth and, as if resolved to COM
plete tie labor of destruction, the
fearful concussion is sometimes re.
peated three or four times, until
the whole face of nature is changed
into a chaos Of ruin. At the
great Calabrian earthquake man
was carried, in an instant, togeth-
er with the field on which he was
laboriDg, to a distant part of the
valley; at Riobamba the bodies
of the inhabitants were hurled
through the air to the top of a
neighboring hill. The Calabrian
shock was described as resembling
the explosion of a subterranean
mine, which did its fearful work
in an instant. In Chill, a wit
ness of one of the sudden earth
quakes, describes it as a sudden
explosion, accompanied by a noise
like that occasioned by the dis
charge Of countless cannon. So
perfect is the change produced on
the face of nature that lawsuits
have frequently arisen after an
earthquake as to the possession,
of lands that have been wholly
removed from their ancient bounds.
In the indiscriminate destruction
and removal it was impossible for
men to determine what was their
own.
