4 Horrible Crime.

Nlw YonK, May, 5.-The only case be-
fore the count of session to-day, was that of
People VS., John d. Currie, who was placed
on taial charge with committing an outrage
upon his own daughter, Emma, on Sd Of
June, 1867. Emma was only thirteen
years old. On going on the stand she re-
lated the whole circumstance OF the disgust
ing assault in clear and distinct manner,
and also testified that he had on two prev.
ious occasions attempted the same offense.
The jury has not yet rendered verdict.
Passengers who left San Francisco on
the Pacific railway on Thursday, the 28th

seven this morning, making six days and

THE OLDEST TINHABITANT GoNE.-Miss

THE OLDEST INHABITANT GoNE.-Miss
Jelf, "the oldest inhabitent" ofNew Jersey,
died at her residence in Elizabeth, on Sat
urday, April 23, in her 105th year. She
was born in that city March 27, 1866.
The father of Miss jeff, who was an Eng
lish merchant, died while she was young,
and although having lost much of his pro-
perty by the depredations of the Hessians
and depreciation Of the currency, he left
her in comfortable circumstances. Het
memory did not desert her until a few days
before her death, when she became wholly
unconscious. Up to that time she was
cheerful and contented. She resided many
years with her niece, Miss Mary Ohetwood,
who, with the exception of an old and at
tached domestic, was the only other inmate
of the house in which she had lived nearly
sixty years. She could read with ease or
dinary newspaper type. She remembered
distinctly the breaking out of the Revolu-
tion of '76' and loved to tell of her cOnver-
sation with George Washington and Gen
eral Lafayette, and the banquet she attend
ed-givsn in their honor-on their visit to
Elizabeth at the head of the American army
during the great Jersey campaign. She
clearly recollected the burning of a portion
of Elizabeth by the Hessians. She had
not been out of the house for nearly fifteen
years, and had never seen locomotive, or
even ridden in horse-car-

Interesting 10 Soldiers.


The House of Representatives last week
passed two measures of considerable impor-
tauce to ex-soldiers of the rebellion One
was "bll to provide for payment of bouu-
ties to certain officers of volunteers" The
bill provides that each and, every commits
stoned officer who entered the army as an
enlisted man after April 10, 1861, for q
period of not less than three years, and was
promoted from private or non-commis-
stoned officer to the rank of a commissioned
officer, and was afterward, while holding
the same rank to which he was promoted,
honorably discharge on account of wounds
received in the line of duty, and whose pay
and allowances for the period he served as
a commissioned officer we're less than tt G
amount he would have received as pay and
bounty for the same period, had he contin-
ned to serve as private or commission
ed officer, shall be entitled to received such
sum or bounty as will, together with the
amount he received as pay and allowances
as commissioned officer, equal the amount
he would have received as pay and bounty
had he continued to serve as a private or
non-commissioned officer as aforesaid This
bill is of the nature of an ameudatory law
to the act for the equalization Of bounties,
and make provision for many deserving
cases.
The following resolution, also passed by
the House, provides for the return of dis
charges by Government accounting officers
to the owners thereof, and a matter in which
every honorably discharged soldier is inter-
ested.
Be 1t rtso1ved, DC, That in all cases
has become necessary for any officer or en-
listed man of the army to file his evidence
Of honorable discharge from the milirary
service OF the United States to secure the
settlement of his accounts, the accounting
officer with whom it has been filed shall,
upon application by said officer or enlisted
man, deliver 20 him such evidence of hen
orable discharge, providing his accounts
shall have been duly settled and provided
that the fact, date, and amount of such set
tlement shall first be clearly written across
the face of such evidence of honorable dis
charge, and attested by the signature Of the
accounting officer.

The Feniar1s in Council.
New YORK, Nav 9,

NEW ohK, May y.
A Convention OF all the Centres of the
Circles of the Fenian Brotherhood in Man
haitian district, held a Convention yester-
day after noon, at head quarters
Numerous questions of grert interest to the
organization discussed. Most OF the pro-
ceediDgs we're secret. 1t is only known
that the late difficulties between Gen.
O'Neil and the Senate Constitution formed
the chief subjact of discussion, and action.
The course of ONeil was bitterly condemn
ed. The Centres reported enthusiastic ae-
action, and meeting in favor of onward
movements.

HANNlBAL's SKELETON Thousands Of
persons throughout the United States, who
have gazed in wonder upon the eoilosal
proportions of VanAmburg's famous ele-
phant Hannibal, on exhibition in this coun-
try forty-six years, the largest specimen of
the species sver imported into this country
or Europe, will be Interested in the final
disposal of his bones, whioh, we understand
are to be added to the geological curiosi-
ties of New York Central Park.
Hannibal died at Centreville, Nd, 10
about the ninetieth year of his age, in May
1866. The complete skeleton of an ele-
plant being very difficult to obtain, the
bones are correspondingly valuable, and
great precautions we're, in consequence,
taken TO preserve those of Hannibal, and
under the charge of Albert Townsend, the
carcass was dragged to field about mile
from the village, and large strong mauso-
leum OF masonry erected over it. There
it was suffered to remained until the flesh
had wasted away sufficient to Permit of the
removal Of the bones. So great was the
mass that not until few days since was
it thought advisable to open the tomb.
To Mr.. Hyatt Frost, director of the men,
agcrie, is due the conception of the idea of
making the unique and valuable present to
the city Of New York. Within a few
weeks the massive bones will have been
cleanscd, transported to the Central Park,
and set up in the geological department,
there to remain an object of interest to the
visitors until the tooth of time causes them
to crumble to dust

PAYING THE FREIGHT.-The min ers in
the new territories are victimized without
mercy by the Jew traders that they are
compelled to buy supplies of. An English
miner who went to buy darnng-needle,
selected one, stuck it in the lapel of his
coat aud asked the price
"Four bits, (half dollar0 my teah.'
-Four bits I. four DEVILS" said the miner;
"why, where I come from you can buy a
dozen for one Bit"

THE MCFARLAD TRIAL.--We take the
followig comment from Forny's Press. 1t
is about the sentiment expressed through
out tie country:
After retreing long enough to give
their verdict the weight of deliberatiou
the jury in the Mcfarland case returned
verdict of acquittal. From a sense Of
propriety we have refrained from express
ing any opinion on this case during the
pendency of the trial, but Of its issue we
have had all along little doubt Is part Of
Of the unwritten law of this land that any
man who tampers with the wife of another
must take the consequences, be they what
they may, and no American jury has yet
been found 70 question tie right of an out
ragged husband to infict any punishment
ne may deem fit.
Without wading through the somewhat
prurient details of the evidence in this un-
pleasant case, enough is known to safely
assert that Mrs. Mcfarland violated her
marriage VOWS, and that Richardson was
her comrade in crime Owiong to the pc
culiar circumstances of American society
women are allowed a freedom that in other
countries can hardly be understood, but
the man who takes advantage of it must
abide the penalty. Our homes are open,
but the same power which opens them

A HORRIBLE AccIDENT-John Hoover

A HORRIBLE AccIDENT.-John Hoover,
residing within three miles of this place
lost bis life on Wednesday last while at
work on Goodfelow's Sawmill under the
following circumstances He went to the
mill about nine o'clock, and not coming to
dinner some one repaired to the MILL about
one O'Clock, and there found him corded on
the bullwheel dead and manged in the
most horrible manner. 1t appeared from
the surroundings that the first thing be done
after he went on the mill, was to draw a
log out of the pond and in attempting to
prevent the rope from 'piling up on the
wheel, he was evidently caught by the hand
and drawn upon the wheel, aud the rope
wrapped around him. His legs head and
arms were all pounded into jelly, caused by
striking the timbers while revolving around
with the wheel The rope had broke, but
he was still held tight to the wheel when
found. Mr.. Hoover was a single nan about
80 years Of age. 1t is not long since a
death was caused at Messrs. Bigler's Mill,
near this place through similar careless
ness. Cearfcd Republican.
