PoUGuKEEPsIE, August 10, 1872.
In the Jail in this city is a young girl
named Matty Howe, aged about twenty
three, who stands indicted for murder In
the first degree. She was last Winter IN
the employ of a man in Fishkill named Ed
Lane, by whom she became pregnant, and
when childbirth was expected she was
sent from the house to the abode OF a
colored woman some distance off. She
had no sooner entered the black woman's
apartment than she was attacked with
pains, and very quickly. with the aid of a
pbvsician, gave birth to a child. Desert
ed by the man who should have stood by
her, and Notwithstanding her precarious
condition, she left the house the next
day with the newborn child in her arms,
and was afterwards seen without it.
Shortly after that the body of the child
was found in q piece of wood, and 1t
looked as though it had been attacked by
some animal.
Mattv Howe was arrested for killing
her offspring ard indicted as above stated,
and her trial is to come off in the Supreme
Court in October next. Her cell is on
the upper corridor, on the west side.
Directly under it on the next corridor be-
low is the cell of Eugene Schmitland, a
goodlooking German who was indicted for
grand larceny in stealinga number OF
watches and a quantity of jewelry In
Fishkill last spriug. He is a g~ood-natur-
ed sort of a fellow, and has been allowed
the freedom of the outer-corridors. One
of these corridors leads to Matty Howe's
cell, and Eugene soon became acquainted
with Matty by seeing her and

which separated them. The at first cas-
ual acquaintance, under adverse circum-
stances, ripened into affection and from
that time forth through the long hours Of
the day, until the time arrived for each
prisoner to be locked up for the night the
loving Eugene could be seen sitting by
the bars of Mattie's cell the two exchang-
ing vows of eternal constancy. One day
Eugene addressed a letter to his father,
in the Old Country, saying he had got
into a little difficulty and sadly needed

BEAUTIFY TUE FARM.-The Maine
Farmer says: You can beautify your
premises hat travellers will have to love
it as they pass, study the points that at
tract, and carry in their minds ever af>
ter the recollection that it was a home of
outward beauty, made so by the presence
of inward taste and happiness. But to
your own mind will come the greater
good. Life will be the brighter and hap
pier to you. Your children will grow up
love the home you have rendered so at
t~ractive to them, and its beauties will ever
act as educating influences for good upon
their minds and hearts. The dull rou-
tine of hard labor will be relieved by the
rational erjoyments which come from the
surroundings, whenever brought under
their silent power, and you will grow into
a purer life and a nobler manhood in con-
sequence.

| $500 to help him. His father, who is re-
ported to be rich, in a few weeks after
sent him $500 in gold. Then the lovers
decided to get married. Eugene, through
the consent of the Sheriff, sent for a first
class tailor to come to the Jail and measure
him for a suit of clothes, and in due time
the suit was finished. He then sent to
Van Kuren Bros jewelry store and had
samples of jewelry sent to his cell, from
which he selected a complete set for
Matty, including q gold chain and locket,
and presented them to her. He also
gave her a fancy lace collar and fancy,
hectic.
Having thus, as he thought prepared for
the wedding, the next thing was to get a
minister to preform the marriage ceremony
Last Saturday he requested Jailer Van
derpool to go after a Methodist dominic.
The j%ailer, knowing that sucha thing
would not be allowed, replied that he was
too busy to attend to the matter then
when Eugene requested the attendance of
DIR. Boose, the cigar dealer, who came to
the Jail. To him Eugene opened his
heart, and Mr.. Boose endeayored to get a
German minister to oficiate, but he de-
clined on the ground that such a marriage
would be unlawful. Then Justice Baker
was appealed to. That official
SAID HE WOULD MARRY THEM
if the Sheriff would consent, but the latter
peremptorily declined. This intelligence
vas conveyed to the determined lovers.
who received it with sadness. The Sheriff
however, in order to appease them, sent
them word they could be married in open
court by the presiding judge. They,
however, received that news with distrust
and are mourning over the fact that next
week Eugene is to be tried and will, with
out doubt, be sent down the river, leav-
ing Matty to remain here till October for
her trial. 1t is the first case of love in
Jail that ever occurred in this county.

CHIcA op REBUILDING
CHANGE IN THE CHICAGO RIVERA Chicago
letter to the Freemdn's Joundlsays:
The ruins caused by the great fire OF last
October are rapidly disappearing, especially
i'm the business portion Of the city, and far
larger and more extensive buildings are be-
ing erected than any that existed before the
fire. So extensive is the area in which pre-
partitions are being made and buildings are
approaching completion, that it is very easy
to sec that in two years from the date of
the fire Chicago will have far more capacity
for business than she had before. Some
of the tirst-clasS firms have been for over
two months doing business in completely
finished stores, five stories high, and
covering one.fourth more area than any
ever erected before. These mammoth

spread in localities heretofore covered with
old wooden shanties and Stunned by any
kind of respectable business. The old river
being on u level with the lake excepting
when rain caused rise In it, was at all
times most offensive, even in. the midst of
winter, from its horrid effluyium, and, in
Consequence, was Stunned by all as much
as possible. This condition of things, were
it always to continue so. would inevitably
in the course of time prove the destruction
of the city. and cause such plaques rs would
destroy its people and prevent Others from
taking their place. This threatening evil
had been entirely removed two or th'ee
months before the fire by cutting through
the very slight elevation that forms the
water she'd between the waters Of the Missi$-
sippi and st. Lawrence rivers in this
section. AS soon as this was done, the Chit
caso river reversed the course. running
into the Illinois river in place OF Lake Mich
igan, turning Its former mouth into its
present source, and emptying into the Gulf
of Mexico in place of that Of st. Lawrence,
with q current OF two miles an hour, carry
inc the sewerage Of Chicago to enrich the
bottom lands of Illinois, and securing Us for
ever the most thorough drainage of any
large city in the world. The river will no
longer be stunned by any kind of commerce,
and already tho coal.yards that married the
very heart of the city have given place to
large and extensive preparations for the cree
ton of mammoth stores, and present appear
ances leave no doubt that the city will be re-
built much sooner than any one could rea-
sonably expect.
To this general progress there is an excep'
ton regarding our churches, the restoration
of which will take years to accomplish.
