TRIAL OF A POSTMASTER FOR EMBEzZLE-
MENT.-The trial of VIM. L. Boyd, charged with
embe Zzling certain funds of the United States
while assistant postmaster at Cumberland, was
continued yesterday in the United District
Court. Col. Lowdermilk, postmaster at Cum
berland, testified to the facts connected with
his discovery of the deficiency in the money
order account last November, and the admis-
sions made by Mr.. Boyd concerning the same.
The frst point made by Mr.: Boyds counsel
was that he was not answerable TO the United
States, but only to the postmaster, who had ap
pointed him, and who was responsible for bis
acts, and could remove at will. The court ruled
out this point, and held that Mr.. Boyd was re
sponsible to the United States for the faithful
performance of bis duties. The next poi Mt
brought out was that there were two clerks en-
ployed in the post office, both OF whom might
have had access to Mr.. Boyds desk, and an at
tempt was made to get before the jury the fact
that one of them had been accused Of a dishonest
act before he went into the post Office. The
court held all evidence touching the general
reputation of those employed in the post office
to be inadmissible. The case will probable last
two or three days.-Baltimore american, 1its.

THE NoRTHwooD MURDERER.-Evans, the

cence of that and all other crimes laid to his
charge. When first taken to the prison he asked
the warden for the privilege OF praying and
groaning. The warden told him he migh hit pray
in secret increasingly, but no shouting or groan-
ing would be permitted. The old sinner pro
fesses to believe that he will not be hung He
tell the warden that his so-called confession
was put in his mouth, and that he is the victim
Of a conspiracy, a much abused man, whom the
Lord will not permit to be hanged. As the
time for his execution approaches, however. he
may change his mood somewhat. When he
comes to realize that there is really no escape
for him, he may make a genuine confession.
Meantime, he appears to enjoy good health.

BENEFICIAL EFPRcT OF VEGETABLE PER-
FUMEe.-An Italian professor has made some
very agreeable medical researches, resulting in
the discovery that vegetable perfumes exercise
a positively healthful influence on the atmos-
thus increasing its oxidizing influence. The
essences found 10 develop the largest quantity
OF ozone are those OF cherry, laurel. cloves,
lavender, mint, juniper, lemons, fennel, and
bergsmot; those that give IL in smaller quaint
ties are anise, nutmeg, and thyme. The how-
ers of the narcissus, hyacinth, mignOnette, he
liotrope, and lily Of the valley. develop ozone
in closed vessels. Flowers destitute of perfume
do not develop it, and those which have but
slight perfume develop IL only in small quanti-
ties. Reasoning from these facts. the professor
recommends the cultivation OF flowers in
marshy districts, aud in all places infested with
animal carnations, on account of the powerful
oxidizing influence OF ozone. The inhabitants
Of such regions should, he saws, surround their
houses with beds of the most odorous fiowers
