THE DEVIL OUT.DONE.

The daughter of a wealthy farmer
in Winneshiek c ounty confined in a
solitary den fer fifteen years by
brutal father and fiendish step
mother. Is the heading, well dis
played, which the Postville Reuieao
introduces the following sickening
story of crime and cruelty:
In Washington ia township resides
q man by the name of Wurzer, who
is the owner Of well improved farm
with two story house. In one COR
ner Of the hous b, in the upper story,
is little den s410 in which is box
three feet six in ches in length, and
twenty two inches wide. There is
nothing else in the room but dirt and
a few rags. A living human being
has lain in that box for more than fif.
teen years-a girl twenty years of
age, the daughter of Wurzer. His
neighbors knew that he had a daugh-
ter, but when g asked what had be-
come ofher," he would give some
evasive reply.
Last week o ne of his neighbors
made information that she believed
the girl was not receiving proper
treatment, as she heard sobs and
meanings, which she supposed came
from the girl.
Sheriff Thom mpson, from whom we
learn the facts found the girl lying
on her elbows and knees upon little
straw in the box. She had nothing
on her person whatever but piece
of dirty blanket not fit to cover a
horse thrown around her shoulders.
Her hands and head were as small as
those of chi d ten years old. Her
hair.was cut 8 hort. Of course she
was in an idiotic condition. She ac-
tually ate her own offal in the pres
ence of the Sheriff, thus showing
that she was not sufficiently fed. She
was crippled SO that she could not
stand up straight. The place was SO
filthy, the air 80 foul, aud the whole
scene SO sickeDing that the Sheriff
could stay in the house only long
enough to make the proper orders
fer the future care of the wretched
being who for more than fifteen years
had been kept in that earthly hell.
While stor ms have ragged without,
and the bright sun, summer after
summer, has brought the worse than
brutal father bountiful harvests, who
can tell what she has passed through ?
He makes but little excuse for not
taking better care other, saying that
he could not be with her all the time.
He has been living with his second
wife ten years. There is not a man
in Winneshie ek out will demand the
utmost punishment for the father and
stepmother of this girl.

EDS. HERALD.-Will you please pub
lish the following address of Rev DR.. Min
er, at the late New York convention for
the religious amendment of the U. 8. Con-
stitution. DR.. Miner is one Of the leading
UniveIsalists of the East, and is President
of Tufts College near Boston. He is a
man of acknowledged ability, and holds a
high position amongst the educated men
of our nation. The position of such men
as DR.. Miner, and DR.. Mayo (Unltarian) of
Cincinnati upon this question, should set
tie the charge of "sectarianism" that is
paraded with such a show of wisdom by
so many of the smaller lights of "ortho-
doxy"
