There indeed, was the YOUTH fast asleep between the

her lips Oh his forehead.

The Tnte Of spios in War.

From the Jewish Leader Qiberal JewJ.s Sept. ST.
II Is deplorable fact that good number OF spies
have up to this moment been employed in the war
which Is now being carried on between the two
great European Powers Those who carry out this
treacherOus system are severely punished when
caught for what s spy else than secret assassin,
owing to whose paid treason large OF soldiers
often perish, whereas they might have preserved
their lives In honest open combat?
II we read In the Scripture OF spies, the mission
with which they were entrusted Is not by any
comparable or analogous vita the functions per-
formed by the treacherous individuals oil times.
above referred to. Yet It has been recorded that
those spies were disagreeable to Moses ana he only
consented to send out spies IN order to tranquize
the turbulent and refractory people rs 10 the cond
the reports which these spies would bring him, as
his trust In Cod must have rendered them matter
OF indifference to him.
The ann and object or Joshua in sending out the
two spies to jericho was equally to reanlmate and
encourage the dsmayed hearts OF ISRAEL by favor
able Intelligence thus we understand the comment
OF Ktmchl). Also the mission OF the messengers to
Al Joshua y was only for the purpose OF tranquil
tzlng the people about the selection OF more than
three thousand warriors for the expedition against
that city. That TINS expedition miscarried proves
that 1t was not the intention OF Joshua to gather
such information as could De favorable to him.
The two messengers whom David sent out to seek
saul o. Samuel xXvi., 81 were no spies OF whom
David avaed himself IN order to do any harm to
to King saul. In like manner the Meraglim
OF Absalon III. Samuel XIV, l0)., were nothing but
messengers to the different tribes. Eventhe messen
gers OF tue tribe OF Dan TO the house Of Micah were
not sent out as spies.

THE NEwBURG TRAGEDY.

Bufam the Murderer Removed to Goshen
Jaii-He Still Threatens TO Commit Suicide
He Feigns Eit-Diverse Opinions Relative
TO His Insanity.
On Friday evening Bobert Bufrum, the murderer
OF John L. Seaverns, was removed from the Orange
county jail at Newburg to that at Goshen Newburg
and Goshen being the hali-shire towns Of Orange,
and Goshen being the 'beiter har' In respecti to
jail accommodations, where ne win be kept until
the session of the County Court, which commences
ON the 26th inst. His case VIII then be brought be-
fore the Grand Jury. and bill Of indict-
ment for murder be found against him.
Butrum seems possessed with feeling OF melan-
choly, and declares that he VIII watch his chance
and make another attempt to commit suicide. Dep
nty Sheriff Tuthill, who has charge OF the Newburg
jail, Is yet unconvnced OF Bufrums insanity aver

to Bunnms head. II was thought incredible that
The man could have come down with such force on

ono evening last week Bufum seemed TO be

his muscles relaxed, he became quiet his eyes
slowly closed upon all sublunary things, his breath
Ing slackened Its headong pace and his attendants
Thought u was nearly over with Bufrum in this
world. The Sherlr was notified and he at once sent
messenger for DR.. E. E. Lee, who has had charge
OF the murderer case since the attempt ut suicide.
The doctor hurried from mis- residence over to the
jail, ana was at once admitted to the cell Of the sup
posed dying man. Feeling Of his pulse The doctor
was surprised to find t full ana strong. Seeing that
Butnn's eyes were closed he drew up the lid, when
Bufium made an effort to draw 1t down again. In
the language OF the immortal Prof. LOomis, OF no.
meteor fame, the zig was now up.n Quoth the doc
TOR 10 the murderer, "Bufum that won't do; sit up
here" Bunum, coming out OF his dying
ut without any apparent effort sat up
on his cot and nonchalantly said, "Good
evening, doctor" and tnus ended this
that Buifums insanity-If he ever was really in-
sane-was more rum-craZiness than anything else,
and this opinion would seem to find support from
the letter OF Dr. Bemis, superintendent OF the Insane
Asylum, which was recently published in the
HERALD. On the other hand, there Is widespread
opinion that Bufrums Eunerings and prIvaulons In
Southern prisons during the war unsettled his mind
aud gave hlm murder manid."
