a Remarkable Criminal.

Another remarkable instance Of tn,
i~diosyncracics of the criminal mind i.
now on record. Cases of klcpio,

whom the torture and death of their
fellow creatures appeared as morbid.
but excessive craving of nature, and
10 whom murder was a delightful
pastime. Ono abnormal abomination
devoted his experience. to stabbing
young ONE at night, on streets OF
cities in the vicinity of New York.
Nearly akin 10 this last monoiuauIu

Jesse Pomery was arrested III

Irocities upon boys younger and
weaker than himself. lie WAS taken
To Boston and fully identItieu as
having committed similar crimes ill
that city aud subsequently, confessed
10 his mi>dceds. The Advertiser
avs 'lu Il number of Instances he

The eyes OF several BOYS faces, which
leaves them distigurcd tor life, while
III other cases he slubbcd them in the
thighs AMI other portions OF the
Ooay. He SAID he was very sorry for
what he had done, and could not tell
what had prompted him 10 do il. He
had always borne Il good reputation
as Il quiet and peaccab!e boy, and
would hardly be suspected OF COM
mlttin" such otttnscs as those with
which he stands charged. lie appears
10 be perfectly rational, aud has not
the least indication of insanity. "ln

noon an examinations of the boy was

TIL: JURY.
THE PUBLIC SENTIMENT.

Our reporter in making the rounds.
had occasion to sidlc up to more th"n
one of the groups of people who were
discussing this absorbing topic. All
expressed great surprise at the re-
suit. Many seemed agrrcably sur
prised. Now and then we cal:ir
across dissatisfied persons. One old
croakcr was heard to say that he
was beginning to believe that MIR.
CrittCnden was V ou the FL C,ip-
Hun at all. Another believes this
the saddcst day in the history of San
Francisco. Ii this be 50. malIv seem
to think it better we should be sad
than purchase happiness at the cost
ola weak woman's blood. The day
has opened dark enough. but for one
fluttcring soul. its sunset will be as
bright rs ever closed q lay in Par,-
disc. The end OF Il mos terrible or
deal has been happily accomplished
for the sufferer subjected to it.
