THE GAZE1TTE
Death on n Sons Evidence.
FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 25.


The Paris correspondent of the Pail Mall
Gazette, says:
An extraordinary scene has just been enacted
before the Court Of Assizes at Agen. 1t may
be remembered that few months ago rural
no>tman. called Mano. was tried for. the muir
der of his father, mother, wife and two chill
dren. and was sentenced to hard labor tor lite.
Had the evidence against Mano not been OF
the most slender description, he would natural
" have been condemned to death. The jury
we're at the same time Mortified at the atroclty
of the crime, but not thoroughly convinced that
hlano was the assassin, and hence they delivered
a yeedict which did not permit OF the judge
awarding capital punishment,
Mauo set up an alib and he certainly prov
ed this much, that very late at night he threw
himself on some straw IN an clubhouse at VII
aee distant pine or ten miles from the scene of
the crime, and that he was found asleep early
next morning in the same place. 1t was cousl-
dcred almost impossible that Mano could have
gone home, have murdered FIVE persons, have
returned TO the clubhouse, and have fallen asleep
between the time he was seen to turn IN tor
the plight and the hour at which he was arous-
ed the next morning. The only evidence
against Nlano was given by his son Bernadln, a
lad of about twelve years of age. Bernadln
SalQ t0aI ne was III DeQ Will HIS yuuuSel olot u
er when his father came into the house IN the
middle of the night, and he heard the cries OF
murder. His father came and looked at him,
but he pretended to be asleep, and afterwards
he saw Mano hiding his trousers, 1t turned
out, however. that Bernadau had FOR long
time declared that he knew nothing OF the at
fair, and it was only Several months after the
crime had been coiiimitted that he told this
tale. Mano, considering CHAT he had been I'M
Justly condemned, appealed and now a higher
court has sentenced him to death, .on bis son
evidence, The scene in court 4the day before
Yesterday was most dramatic. The boy Berna-
din was i'll, and had to be placed on the bench
50 that the President might hear his replies;
he was then taken to the jury-box, and repeat
ed his evidence in feeble voice.
. TO the astonishment Of the Court he admit
ed then that his cousins, Maurice and Martin
Mauo, had told him to tell the above story
concerning his father Before the lad could be
further questioned he was taken suddenly worse
and had to be taken out Of Court. Yesterday
he again made his appearance, and was evident
~ in a state of high fever: However, he re-
peated his story The President said, mo
one told you to say this?" Bernadin replied,
No" President: Not even the little Mau.
rice or Martin Mano?' Bernadin; "No.
President: Yesterday, when you SAID that
they had told you what to say, it was because;
you were tatieued ard suffering from fever
Bernadin: "Yes, NJ, lie President Upon
this evidence Mano was condemned to death.

The FILTH OF THE LOWER WARDS OF THE
CITY is reeking disgrace to New York. The
state Of the streets around the Five Points, as
set forth in the report to be found elsewhere,
will fill the public mind with alarm. In the
abominable heaps Of slush and decaying ami
NAL and vegetable matter are the germs Of an
epidemic that would soon pass the confines Of
the fearfully overcrowded tenements Of the
Sixth ward, and make New York, from one
end to the other, huge nest Of disease. The
authorities are as sluggish in the matter as the
black mud Of Baxter street. After the late
rains there is no excuse for these hecatombs Of
rottenness being left to poison the dir we
breathe. Rain is one of the best scavengers
but in the Sixth ward it has simply made
matters worse by converting the foul rubbish
into slime. The warm weather, which should
prove blessing, operates on these lakes Of filth
by volatilizing all the noxous gases and dis
persing them oyer the city. There must be
something done rapidly to end this disgrace
full and perilous condition of the streets, even
though the immediate inhabitants of the
neglected districts are among the poorest Of
the poor

The STATE ELECTION IN Iowa, for Gov
ernor, Legislature, &C., takes place in October.
Parties are already bestirring themselves in
regard to candidates, and various devices are
resorted to by old electionesrers to capture
the farmers vote, which, through the recent
Independent organizations, has become a
great political power in the State The repub-
icans have generally carried Iowa by from
thirty to forty thousand, and, in the opinion
of some Western papers, it is thought they
will probably make the farmers some tempo
rary concessions on the tariff question and
attempt to either cajole or dragoon them into
the party ranks. As the Chicago Tribune
says, when the farmers know their own
power and concentrate on their own common
interests politics will have more to fear from
them than they from politics"
