DUG OUT OF HIS GRAVE.

A CHASTITY Busin ness-The Corpse of an Old
Man Rescued from the Body-snatchers.
The Louisville Courier-Journdl of the Goth
inst. has the following:-
Last night was dark and terrible. 1t was q
night suited to the business of the body
snatchers. Graves were not safe, and the holy
precincts of the burial ground were invaded,
and human bodies dragged ruthlessly from their
graves and ghastly shrouds.
A little after midnight, while sitting at the
door of his Office on Centre and Green streets,
Lieutenant Doyle noticed small spring wagon
coming slowly and carefully in Centre street.
at first it attracted little attention. When
within fifty yards of him it turned suddenly into
the dark alley that runs from Centre to Fifth,
and which is the rear entrance to the Medical
College. Suspecting what was the matter, he
called one of his men and pursued it. Seeing
Its danger, the horses were whipped up. and the the
college, College when when two 9 u men @ Jumped @ d0C out " and
reaching back into the wagon, snatched o
CHASTITY corpse by the feet and pulled it out.
Falling with heavy thud upon the ground, it
was being dragged, feet foremost, into the dark
entrance when the officers came up. The mys-
terious men then dropped their booty and fled
within the door, closing and barring it after
them. The wagon was driven away at head
long pace.
The officers were left alone with the corpse.
1t was stark naked and staring. The limbs
were not even frigid and the blood hardly cold.
1t was that of an old man whose head was white,
and who had evidently seen much OF the trou-
bles and terrors of this world, but hardly any
thing so terrible as this. His beard was full
and long, and his face was a noble and intelli-
gent one, and bore an expression of peaceful
ness and calm hardly IN keeping with the in
human circumstance that had brought him back
again to the gaze of the world. His neck was
bruised and the skin torn, showing where the
rope had been fastened by which he was pulled
out of his coffin. The skin was torn from one
of his arms also. while the bruises over his body
showed that the work had been heartless and
inhuman.
shutter was procured, his body placed upon
1t and taken to police headquarters, where an
inquest was held at o'clock this morning

INSANE AsYLuM BURNEp.

Of the Nebraska state Insti-
tuition for the Insane-TwO of the In
mates Burned co Death-Loss, s175,0OO.
The Lincoln (Neb.) Statesman of the 18th
instant has the following
At about o'clock this morning the alarm of
fire was sounded through our streets The cause
was soon ascertained to be the Insane Asylum.
The origin of the fire was, without doubt, the
work of an incendiary, as IL caught exactly II
the same prace as where IL was once fired before
i'm the northwest corner of the wing, r.oar its
connection with the main building. J.nere was
no possibility of any OF the inmates having ac-
cess to that part of the building end the respon-
sibility therefore rests upon sorne fendish devil
no human being could possibly be so far lost
to all reason.
Immediately upon the alarm, Dr. Larsh, with
all the men employed about the building, made
every effort within their power to extinguish
the flames; but to no purpose.
When 1t was found impossible to subdue the
flames, their next efforts were made to save the
patients. In the upper part of the portien oc-
cupied by these unfortunates, two men who had
TO be kept in rooms separate were confined.
The wstchmen went and released them, and
made every effort to get them out, but every
time they would return again. Finally, they
had to abandon them and go to the rescue of
others. The names of the two who perished
were Edward Holverson, sent here from Rich
ardson county, and Henry Keller, from Dodge
county.
After the patients were safe they succeeded
in saving very small portion of the parlor fur
niture and considerable number of blankets
but what was saved will probably not exceed
$4,000.
The scenes were frightful in the extreme
During the early stage of the fire one of the in
mates who is very bad, seized club and threat
ened to slaughter all the women and children
about the building. Others were lying upon
cots, unconscious, to all appearances, of the
awful calamity.
When we arrived on the ground but small
portion of the walls had fallen in, but in less
than thirty minutes nearly the whole of the
main part of the building and also the wing
crumbled down like pile of sand.
The loss to the State will not fall far short of
$175,000, the building having cost $145, 5000 and
the furniture about $780, 900.
What will be done with the patients is a
question which will require consideration. No
| doubt they will be provided for until the reas-
sembling of the Legislature, when provision
| should Immediately be made for the erection OF
| another building.
| Great credit is due to the watchmen, nurses,
and all others engaged about the building, they
simply having escaped with their own clothing
and wrappers, so earnest were they in their
endeavors to care for the unfortunates.
| The building was insured for upwards OF
! 100000 divided among the Underwriters and
the Lorilard, of New York, the Phoenix, OF
Brooklyn and several other companies.

THE JAPANESE JUGGLERS.
Arrest of the Founder OF One Business.

Arrest OF the Founder or the business.
The first Japanese acrobats and jugglers In this
country gave performances at the Academy OF Music
under the management OF Prof. Risley. Suhse-
quently other troupes arrived, and combination
was effected by Professor Risley and Manager
MCGUIRE OF san Francisco the troupes being Joined
together. In August, 1867, Thomas +. Smith, who
had originally brought the Japanese from their ma
tive country, and who had given bonds for their re-
turn, appeared upon the scene, and caused dis
urbance among the troupe which ended by his being
arrested by Rsley and MCGUIRE and placed In
the County JAN, taking the boy GAN Right" with
him. "All Right" was subsequently taken from him
by Manager MCGUIRE and Kept with the troupe all
OF whom refused further performance until their
friend Smith was released On the 18th OF September
following, an arrangement was effected by which
Smith again took possession OF the troupe and pro-
ceeded 10 exhibit them for the joint benefit Of im-
SELF Risley and Mcclure, and he was set at lib
erty. They have since been exhibited In various
again exhibiting in this city, Smith acting general
manager.
Risiey and Mcclure, by their attorney, Mr. Comp
ton applied TO Judge Brady, OF the Supreme Court,
yesterday for another order OF arrest against Smith,
arising out OF the Japanese transactions.
AS basis for the arrest they claim that In October,
1867, with intent to cheat and defraud Mcclure,
Risey, and others interested Smith seized upon ali
moneys accruing from the exhibitions and converted
the same 10 his own use that he removed the troupe
and all It's properties and the moneys out OF the
United States to Cuba and other places without their
that he deposed Marshall from his ONCE as receiver
and agent, and took the entire management and
proceeds to himself. Upon this statement Judge
Brady granted an order OF arrest, holding Smith to
bail In $4,000.
Smith is an Englshman by birth, but for wears has
led rowing life, travelling from one part OF the
world 70 another. He speaks Japanese like native
W. y. tribune.

Times.
The trial of the case of Mary Wallace VS.. the
Chicago Times came TO a close last evening.
and this morning sealed verdict was returned,
awarding the plaintiff damages in the sum OF
$500. The case was one of considerable i'm
portance, as showing the extent of the respon-
sibility of newspaper proprletors for the publ
cation of matters gathered by their reporters
from the usual sources of information. The
alleged libellous publication was taken, the
defendants CLAIM In body or In substance, from
the book kept by the coroner for the Informs
tion OF the public, by reporter of the Times
acknowledged to be satisfactory to herself; but
the suit was commenced notwithstanding, and
the third trial has resulted in the above verdict
1t Is understood that the case will be taken TO
