HnrrihIa Murder

In one of the city dailies on Monday was
given a short account of a rumored perpetra-
ton of most inhuman and atrocious crime,
it being no less than the burning to death of a
child for the sake of revenge. The story was
moi. well authenticated, however, and the in
vestigation of the reporters failed to show
that there was any truth In it until last even
ing, when reliable but somewhat meager in
formation Of the matter was brought to the
officers of the police force by the brother-in-
law of the murdered girl. He confirmed the
report, and said that its worst phases were
but two true. The bare facts of the case are
as follows;
For a long time there has existed between
a couple of Royalton butchers and a man
named Conrad Schweitzer, living on the "Par-
ma, road" about eight miles from this city, q
bitter enmity. SohWeitzer was an old man,
and lived in the family of his son-in-law, Hem
ry Martin. Most of the family were away from
the house in the latter part of the forenoon
last Saturday, but left a little seven year old
daughter of Mr.. Martins at home. On return
ing to the house shortly after eleven o'clock
their steps were hastened by hearing the
screams of the little girl. On entering the
house they found the poor girl on fire, with al
most all her clothing already burned of. The
flames were extinguished as soon as possible,
but the child's body was so terribly burned
that it was impossible for her to survive. She
lived in excruciating agony until yesterday
afternoon, when death relieved her of her suf-
ferings. Her clothing had been saturated with
oil and set on fire.
It is supposed, and We believe there is good
proof that the supposition Is correct ,either from
the child's own declaration before she died or
from some other source, that the two butchers
came to the house during the absence of the
family, to have settlement" with Schweitzer
and not finding him there, wreaked their ven
eeance in this horrible and fendish manner
upon the defenseless and innocent child

A Little Girl Outraged and Murdered
Mr.. Gabriel LOckart, merchant In Shane's
Crossings, little town thirteen miles south
of Van Vert, in Mercer County, has given us
the following particulars OF one Of the most
revolving outrages ever perPetrated:
On Sunday last a little girl named Secar,
who lived with a family near Shane's Cros-
sings, attended Sunday School and Church, as
was her custom. She had not returned to her
home, on Monday morning, but the family
were not alarmed, believing that she had
stayed over night with some of the neighbors.
at noon search was made for her, and failing
to learn her whereabouts, the alarm was given
and the neighbors were called together. Some
twelve or fifteen men went TO the church and
traced her to point where the road passes
house. The last that could be heard Of her
was that family living near this place saw
her at about half past twelve, on Sunday, on
her way home. search was made in the
fields and woods along this road. Near
clump of bushes two pieces Of her hat were
tonnd, and one of the men, who was attracted
by the noise of some hogs in the bushes, walk
ed around to the side where the hogs we're,
and found them fighting over the little girls
body which they were devouring. The head
was cut from the trunk, the skull smashed, and
the brains had been eaten by the hogs. A
stab inflicted by knife, was also found on
her breast. An examination by Physicians
revealed the fact that the girls person had
been outraged. The suppOsition is therefore
that the murder was committed to prevent the
girl from giving the name of the perpetrator
of the crime.
The girls mother is dead and her father
lives near Lancaster. She had been placed in
a family of respectability, and had large cir
Gle of friends.
It is thought that the crime was committed
by some cne acquainted with the girl, who
knew that she ws 5 in the habit of attending
Church and Sabbath School and returning
alone by this road.
A young man named Kimmel was arrested
on suspicion of being the murderer but an ex-
animation proved him innocent of the charge.
The excitement in the neighborhood is at
the highest pitch and if the perpetrator of the
deed shoIld be found it is hinted that he will
be lynohed.-Yan Vert Bulletin.

A PItifuI CendItion.

It is sad thing to pass through life only hall
alive. Yet there are thousands whose habitual
condition is one Of languor and debility. They
complain of no specific disease; they suffer no
positive pain; but they have no relish for any
thing which affords mental or sensuous pleasure.
In nine cases out Of ten this state Of lassitude and
torpor arises from a morbid stomach. Indigestion
destroys the energy of both mind and body.
When the waste Of nature is not supplied by due
and regular assimilation of the food, every organ
is starved, every function is interrupted.
Now, what does common sense suggest under
these ctrcumstancesof depression! The system
needs rousing and strengthening; not merely foT
hour or two, to sink afterWard into more pitt
able condition than ever las it assuredly would do
if an ordinary alehohohe stimulant were resorted
to- but radically and permanently.
How is this desirable object to be accomplished
The answer to this question, founded on the un-
varying experience Of q quarter of a century, is
easily given. Infuse new vigor INTO the digestive
organs by course Of H0stetter's Stomach Bitters.
Do not waste time by administering temporary
remedies, but wake the system up by reeuperating
the fountainhead Of physical strength and energy,
the great organ upon which all the other organs
depend for their nurture and support.
By the time that dozen doses Of the great veg
etable tonic and invigOrant have been taken, the
feeble frame of the dyspeptic will begin to feel its
influence. Appetite viii be created. and with ap-
we're until the cure is oOmplete-uRtil healthful
blood, At TO be the material of flesh and muscle,
bone and nerve and brain, flows through the chan
nels of circulation, instead Of the Watery pubulum
with which they have eretOfOTe been imperfectly
nOurished.

An Anti-GreeIey Circular-FulI Text
of the Document.

CTNorSEATI, June 26.-A confidential cir
cular has been quietly distributed here to-day,
amono the Democrats and Liberal Republicans
onnosed to the nomination of Greeley at Bal
timore. The circular has no names appended,
that being left blank to be filled by the party
distributing them. The exact source Is not
apparent, but it is rumored that considera-
Bile number came from Louisville to-day, and
il is known that some have been filed up and
directed to Blanton Duncan, of Kentucky, in
Baltimore. The circular is marked "Conf-
dential," and is as follows:
CONFIDENTIAL, June 26, 1872.--DEAR SIR:
The Cincinnati movement, conceived in cor
ruption. has so far spread its malign influence
that nrompt measures alone can save the Dem
ocratic partv from disbandment and destruc-
ton. 1t is impossible for the village politi-
clans who have seized the party machinery to
succeed in anything but their avOWed object
to dishand the party. As a means of future
usefulness, the Democratic organization should
be preserved, and as the Greeleyites announce
their intention to bolt and to support their
candidates if they do not secure their object,
il is now the duty of true Democrats to pre-
pare for a severance from such politicians, and
bv throwing off the elements Of discord, to
make the organization purer, stronger and
better in the future. The honest men of the
country will be attracted to that party which
plants itself upon principles. The Cincinnati
Convention was a self-constituted body of
leaders without followers. Half of them have
boIted. It requires only one bold, prompt ae-
ton to send dismay into the ranks of the
scheming politicians who seek plunder and
office That is, to prepare now for Demo-
cratic nomination at all hazards. You are
earnestly requested to attend the Baltimore
Convention, and to secure the presence of at
least two prominent true Democrats from each
District of your State. If the
Baltimore Convention is so lost to reason, so
utterly shameless in total abandonment of
principles, as to go outside of the party to Sc
Iect lifelong opponents as their nominees,
such action is not binding, and it remains for
true Democrats then and there to organize
another convention, without delay, and to
nominate tried and trustworthy standard
bearers. As between such men and the two
Radicals there cannot be any doubt that the
masses will rally in support of the true Demo-
crats, leaving the politicians who have en-
deavored to disrupt the party as the solitary
and stranded leaders, without follower. I'm
mediate preparation for this action may bring
the politicians to their senses. Please report
to me without delay the names and address Of
those who will attend for the purpose indi-
Gated, and also their address in Baltimore.
Yours truly. Address in Baltimore.

In Trouble.-F. J. Payden, a young man
formerly in the employ of Mr.. Youngman,
but more latterly acting as an agent for the
sale of sewing machines for L. LepPelman, got
himself into trouble last week in consequence
of certain acts not stictly recognized as legal,
and which have occasioned him to be bound
over to the Common Pleas Court for trial. In
his perambulations through Wood County he
is said to have represented himself as a partner
of Mr.. L., and to have borrowed small sums
and run up sundry small accounts thereon.
His last transaction was to sell horse which
he was driving, to physician at Lindsey, for
seventy five dollars, and decamp with the
money. These things, coming to the ears of
Mr.. Leppelman, a search was made for him,
when be was discovered and arrested, and on
Friday last brought to hearing. He waived
an examination and was bound over to court.
