Murder ATrisI.-The Com

Murder ATrial.-The Common Pleas
Court, Of HurSp County, was engaged, the
greater part Of last week in the trial Of Ben
nett Scop, charged with the murder of Jacob
Goodman, pedlsr. It appears from the evi-
dence that the murder was committed on the
9th OF October last, in the afternoon. That
the prisoner at the bar had been travelling
with Goodman, had been seen with him that
day. Both parties had stopped at the house
of Mr.. Hartman, about 3 o'clock of that day.
Two miles from that house Goodman was
murdered, and about O'Clock the prisoner
drove into CentervilIe with the horse and rig,
which had belonged to the murdered man, and
claimed then as his own. Next day an iron
bar which had belonged to Mr.. Hartman was
picked up near the scene Of the murder, and
identified, it had evidently been carried off by
the prisoner, and used as an instrument Of
death, on Goodman. Prisoner was arrested
same evening, and pocket book belonging to
Goodman found upon him, which contained
s34o in greenbscks, and which prisoner ad-
mitted belonged to Goodman. Prisoners sto-
" was that on the day of the murder, two
men came to buy some clothing. Goodman
tried to fit one of them, when the other struck
Goodman over the head with club or bar of
iron, and knocked him down; that he, in his
fright, whipped up his horses and drove of;
that he stopped at one house and tried to
make them understand what had happened.
Still, it did not appear that he made any effort
to do 50, when he reached Centerville. On Fri
day, about II O'Clock, the case was given to
the jury, which, after remaining out eight
hours, rendered verdict Of guilty Of murder
in the first degree. His counsel made q motion
for new trial Little doubt exists, In the
neighborhood we're the deed was committed,
as to the guilt Of the prisoner.
