In our last issue we stated that
Eli Morris, colored, had been tried
for disorderly conduct and anod.-
Morris Adams, a coIored barber,
was the real offender, and we fell
into the mistake through the SINH

peaeeable, well behaved colored man
and We are truly glad TO say that
he has never behaved himself in
such a way as to be elassed with
the violators of the law.

Circumstantial Evidence.

A remarkable case, showing tn,
danger of circumstantial evidence
has just been concluded in Toledo
Nearly three years ago, Rober
Sharpe was found dead with shO
and slugs in his brain. A man nam
ed Harrington, who had been on in
innate terms with the deceased, wa;
arrested for the murder. The cvi
denCe was wholly cirCumstantial, but
so successfully "WOrked up" by the
detectives, that Harrington was con.
Victed and sentenced to the peniten-
tiary. His lawyers became interes,
ted in his case, and although HarTins
ton was poor man they determined
to fight his cause to the end. After
a long and arduoUs struggle through
the District and Supreme Courts, an
order was obtained, and that trial has
just been closed.
The main points in the evidence on
which he was convicted were the sim
ilarity of the shot in the body of the
dead man with that of the shot-bag
belonging to Harrington; the cor
respondence of pieces of q neWspa-
per found near the scene of the sup
posed murder, and assumed to be
part of the gun-wadding, with torn
paper in HarringtOn's residence and
a piece in his vest pocket; and that
the motive for the murder was to be
found in the alleged fact of Sharpe
having come to Toledo with several
hundred dollars of money, which
Harrington knew, and that no one
else was so intimate with him.
On the second trial it was rendered
doubtful whether there was a SINH
larity in the shot. 1t was clearly
proven that the pieces ofpaper aIleg-
ed to have been picked up at the
scene Of the murder were not there
at the time of the finding of the body,
nor for day or two afterWard, and
the Inference was unavoidable that
they were put there by the detectives
to aid them in working up" the case
against Harrington. 1t was further
proven that Sharpe was destitute
when he arrived in Toledo, and that
Harrington was doing his best to aid
him in procuring employment. To
crown all, an aJj6G was clearly and
satisfactorily proven. Harrington
was declared innocent, and the jury
voluntarily gave him letter, signed
by every member, repeating, IN en-
phatic terms, their belief in his en-
tire innocence or any knowledge OF
the supposed murder, and bearing
testimony of his uniform good char
acter. The public sentiment unani-
mously cOincided with this verdict.
The former employer of Harrington
Immediately took him back into his
| service.
1t causes an unpleasant shudder to
reflect that perfectly innocent man,
of good character, suffered two years
of degrading punishment, and mar
rowly escaped an ignominious
death for q crime of which he knew
nothing. 1t is another warning
the danger of an implicit trust IN
wholly circumstantial evidence, and
a protest against the detectives il
working up a case' against one they
| choose to suspect.

THE CRUST OF THE EARTH. If we
bury a thermometer fifty feet below
the surface of the earth the mercury
will remain at the same point the
year round, in winter and in summer,
showing that the influence of the sun
does not reach below that depth. If
we carry the thermometer fifty feet
lower, the mercury will rise one de-
gree, and will rise in the same ratio
for every fifty feet we go down. It
can be easily calculated at what depth
all known substances will melt. This
would not exceed fifty miles. 1t will
be thus seen that the crust-or solid
part-of the earth is exceedingly thin,
in proportion to the diameter; not so
thick as an egg-shell, in proportion to
the size of the egg, With a crust so
thin, constantly cooling, and prOduc-
ing a pressure upon the internal mas
ses, it is not strange that the bed of the
ocean should be elevated in a single
day, and whole cities have been sunk
in the same space Of time. The side
of volcanic mountain once broke
away, and the Iivid masses flowed
out, forming a river twelve miles
wide, which in it, course, melted
down six hills 600 feet high, filling up
valleys 600 feet deep, and spreading
over a surface !, 100 square miles.

For before she reached the door, Ill

'"Wa~al, I nevers Naow, stranger,

Then he told his story. He was a
city merchant, he informed them,
and Cora was his only child, her
mother dying when she was only three
days Old. He then put her out to
nurse, and the nurse having received
her pay in advance, had run away,
and left the child in little basket by
the wayside-Where Reuben Kingston
found it. The father had been near
Ily distracted when first he learned his
loss, but after the first grief was over
had set himself to work untiring to
find her. Link by link the chain was
put together, till now he stood there
with evidence complete that little
Cora was his daughter.
''You seem to be quite poor" he
said, looking hurriedly about the
room.
Then of course, they told the
story of the mortgage, not with any
thought of asking help, but only that
he might know that they were not
always poor.
Chow much Is the place worth?' he
asked. 81 mean how much could you
now purchase it fOT?1
GA thousand dollars was the an
swer.
He took a piece Of paper from his
pocket-booky wrote something on it
then folded il within his hand.
''Will you keep Cora stilI-I mean,
if will pay her board, and let me
come to see her OccasiOnally?" he
asked.
''We'd gladly keep her for nothing"
said Mrs Kingston, sadly, f'if we
were o 1ly at our own home. AS it is
Wen have to take whatever you will
give.n
He slipped the folded paper into her
hand.
81 can not make long stay at pres
ent, he said. ''I shall come again
one month from now; perhaps you
will have moved ere that" And af-
ter kissing Cora once more ne left the
room abruptly.
'Did I ever!' cried Mrs. Kingston,
her cap frills shaking moro violently
than was recorded in the opening of
this story. "FfUe thousand dollars! as
am living sinner, and thanking US
beside. Wa-al, never seed the beat
ont, but, Reuben, here's the check"
So the baby brought blessing in
more ways than one.

Mr.. Seward ON His Travels.

Our ex-Secretary of State is fairly
entitled to be called "The Great
American Traveller" For one of his
age it is a marvel to see him circulate
over thousands of miles none the
worse for the fatigues of the journey.
If the purchase of Alaska had not
made the irrePressibIe Seward i'm
mortal, his grand tour de monde
would have done it. We have fol-
lowed his progress through the far
East with a surprise akin to admira-
ton. We found him in China hob
nobbing with the Son of the Moon
and many minor consultations.
Scarcely had we recovered from our
wonder than we discovered him in
Japan, Just engaged in a friendly chat
with the Tycoon, and now we are
regaled with the news that he has
been feasted and toasted by the An
glo-Indians. We publish to-day an
interesting letter from Bombay, an
nouncing Mr.. Stewards arrival and
his reception by the Governor-Gen-
eraI of India. The BicuIIa Club in
Bombay gave a grand dinner in COM
memoration of his visit, and the ban
quet is described as a very brilliant
affair. Well might the chairman of
the occasion say, as ne did, that a
septuagenarain making the tour of
Asia was a rare phenomenon. The
response of Mr.. Seward was in his
usual vein-that is to say, very sem
sible one. He told the Anglo-In-
dians many fattering things-and
who would not on such an occasion ?
and made some happy illusions as
regards the relations between Eng
land. India, and the United States.

| could weep, madam, would il do yol

o, I could weep to think how soon
Our joys decay,
To see the leaves and flowers bloom,
To fade away.
Yes: could weep, as few have wept,
Ger friendships grave,
Ger feelings. hopes, affections swept
In one dark wave!
Canst thou not weep for every woe
That claims tear!
Ger all the poorest wretch can know
or misery here!
Yes! all can weep with those who play
A mOurner's part;
Sweet sympathy has power to sway
The coolest heart.
Feelings like these have nOught Of earth
But all of heaven;
The purtst they, which, at his birth,
To man are given.
Indulge thou, then, this holy grief
For others woes;
This sorrow for the falling leaf
And fading rose.
But cherish not ideal sadness,
Or fancied pain;
Nor let single ray of gladness
Fer shine in vain.

Oregon,

The Willamette Valley, Oregon, has
generally been regarded as the best
Iart of the State. A writer, who was
recently there, says of it:
"Valley of the Willamette, or Wal
a-met, as some contend it should be
called, has its rich rolling prairies and
heavily timbered hills and valleys,
while the climate is damp, decidedly
damp. It is a common saying here
that it is an extraordinary dry time if
it didn't rain thirteen months in the
year; and, though I am inclined to
believe that statement to be a stretch
of the imagination, truth cOmpels me
to say that from five to seven months
in the year that the mist Is so thick
that outdoor labor, as a general rule,
is suspended-in fact, the damp is so
prevalent from November to July that
a person who has resided here for any
length of time is supposed to have
webs grow on his feet, like a duck, so
as to enable him to navigate-hence
the name of the WebfoOt. Want Of
energy and want of enterprise has in
the past been the drawback"

i Sensible Young Man.

The late Col. Sam Colt, patentee Oi
Colts pistol, was himself a practical
mechanic. BY his will he left to his
nephew an immense fortune. At the
time of Colts death the nephew was
learning his trade of a machinist in
his uncle's shop, working diligently in
his overalls by day, subject to the same
rules as other apprentices. On his
uncle's death he became a millionaire;
but choosing n guardian to manage
his property, he continued at his labor
and served bis apprenticeship. Now,
as he walks the rooms of his fine
house, or drives his handsome and
costly team, he has u consciousness
that if his riches take to themselves
wings and fly away, he is furnished
with the means of getting an honest
livelihood, and make a fortune fol
himself.

THE WIFE.-No man ever prospered
in the world without the cooperation
of his wife. If she unites in mutual
endeavors, or rewards his labors with
an endearing smile, with what conf
dence will he resort TO his merchan iise
or his farm, fly over the land, sail up
on the seas, meet difficulty and en-
counter danger, if he knows that he is
not spending his strength in vain, but
that his labor will be rewarded by the
sweets of home Solicitude and dis
appointment enter into the history OF
every mans life; and he is but half
provided for his voyage who finds but
an associate for happy hours, while
for months Of darkness and distress no
symyathizing partner is prepared.
