THE HovEY MURDER.-On yesterday
morning John Gurhiser, charged with the
murder OF Franklin B. HoYey, was ar
raiSned before the Mayor, and his exami-
nation resumed.
DR.. Jackson was sworn, and said he saw
Hoyey on the evening on which he was
shot. He described the wound, and said
he did not doubt but that the shot was
the cause of the death of the deceased.
Detective Pat Woods said he assisted in
the arrest of the prisoner. He had pisto
in his hand, and threatened to shoot Detec'
tive Tyler if he came UP to him. It was
the opinion of the detective that the pris
oner was perfectly crazy at the time.
Sergeant Rankin said the prisoner seemed
to him to be in state Of mind, after the
shooting, when he would as soon have shot
one person as another. He opened his
shirt, and witness thought he was going tc
shoot himself.
Major Turner, Col. J. B. Young and Mr.
Noise, who appeared as counsel for the nc
cused, examined no witnesses, and rested
the examination Oh the testimony which
had been taken. Major Turner contended
that from the testimony, no higher grade of
offence than manslaughter could be charged
against the prisoner, and asked that the
prisoner be sent on for that crime.
Col. Young said that the ablest English
Judges had decided that drunkenness was
an extenuation for crime, and that mad
ness of any kind must be taken into con-
sideration. There could have been no
malice in the crime with which the prisoner
was charged.
The Mayor sent him on for murder, and
committed him to jail for trial.

THE THEATRE" Masks and Faces, :"
the popular dramatizutio of Charles Reade's
story of Peg Wellington, was produced last
evening in q most admirable manner to one
of the lurgest and most fashionable audi
ences seen in the Richmond Theatre for
some time. Miss Laura Keene's rendition
of Peg was in the highest degree artistic,
and the manner in which she alternately
provoked the tears and smiles of her audi
euce was good proof of her wonderful yerea-
tilitv as an actress. Mr.. Mordaunt is n
fine Young actor, possessed of fine personal
appearance, graceful action, and good into
nation. Otis is also very good in the role
Of the exquisite. The ladies of the company

residents Of this city, and those Of Irish
descent, are requested to meet at City Hall
this evening at u o'clock for the purpose
of organizing Hibernian society, and
making preparations for celebrating ST.

warm hearted Irish friends who composed
the Hibernian Society made St. Patrick's
day day to be looked for, and the occa-
sions of their coming together were among
the most pleasant of each years events.
Now that We are restoring all things else to
an ante b,l|un, status, let us welcome the
revival Of the timc-honored observance Of
tha, day sacred to the memory Of the patron
saint of dear old ireland.

ted much commendation.

There is lady in this city who is the
mother Of five healthy intelligent children,
the eldest of which is about eight years old !.
4 singular fact i'll connection with these
children is, not one of them has ever been
known to cry. They have been victims to
the pains aud aches that child flesh is heir
to, yet all the signs of pain they have ever

cry. In other things they are as other
