nous Verdict Against the Perpetrstors
Of the Inhumsn Act.
Turn where you would yesterday, and question
whom you might on the subject Of the brutal
treatment Of the remains Of poor "Beau" flck-
man, and tho invarlable answer was that II was
the meanest, most uncalled-for, unprofessional
and cruel piece Of work ever done In this city
under the semblanoe Of necessity, and that the
perpetrator or perpetrators, whenever he or they
may be found, should DO severely punished.
II would not have been half 80 bad-so the
universal sentiment was-if the body had been
taken entirely, and made TO subserve the ends OF
science; but to mutllate It In the horrible man
ner described, and leave the bloody, shapeless
trunk as an evidence Of their brutality was
more than people could bear, even though the
subject was no more than the llfeiess remains Of
an object Of charity who filled paupers grave.
To the credit Of all be IL said this feeling per.
meated the entire city, and proved that without
regard to persons . lust idea Of decency and
right prevails In the community.
The gentlemen who undertook the task Of
seeing that the remains are properly buried have
completed their arrangements, and this morn
ing carriages will be In waiting at the Nationa
hotel to convey those who wish to pe present q,
the Congressional cemetery to witness the ina
| interment.
