OR CHTLLS AND FE YER.

The proprietor of this celebrated medicine justly
claims for it a superiority over all remedies
offered to the public for the safe, certain spec
dy and permanentieure of Ague and Fever, or
Chills and Fever, whether of short long stand
ing. He refers to The entire Western and South
ern country to bear him testimony to the truth of
the assertion that In no whatever will It fail
to If the directions strictly followed and
carried out. In great many cases a single dose
has been sufficient for a cure and whole families
have been cured by single bottle, with perfect
restoration of the general health. 1t is, however
prudent, and in every more certain of cure If
its use is continued In smaller doses for a week or
two after the disease has been checked, more es-

the bowels in good order. Should the patient,
however require q ca1hartic medicine after having
taken three four doses of the tonic, single

Fam Among the Jurors.

On recent afternoon recalcitrant
Teuton, whose eighteen years sojourn in
this country has taught him but little of
the peculiar advantages and disadvantages
of the system, wandered aimlessly into
Judge Booths court and took seat, re-
garding with awe-born reverence the Ameri-
can style of administering Justice. jury
was being impaneled, and eleven good and
trusty men had already been secured. The
twelfth juror, however, could not be pro-
cured, and the advent of the Teuton was
hailed with delight a few deftly-put
questions soon showed that he was fit
and proper person to fill the vacancy, and
the Judge ordered him to be pressed into
service. The bailiff of the court explained
to the new conner that the German auxiliary
Schaler declined peremptorily to act
"Mein vif waits for me at home, and
vonts pc jury " he cried and
made for the door. The bailiff made
counter-movement, in which the I'M
lucky German was nearly impaled on
the spiked quadrangular that daily
threatens with evisceration all parties at
tending at this court, and stayed his pro-
gress. A tussle ensued. in which Schaler
came off second best During the heat of
the affray, Judge Booths voice resounded
through the Court, calling the bailiff to
take the unwilling juryman to jail TAX
ing more charitable view of the affair,
afterward, his Honor babe Schaler sit down
which he did, grumpily. At the closing
of court his Honor asked Schaler why he
committed contempt of court by disobey-
ing his mandate and resisting the officer.
The Teuton's speech was short, yet preg-
nant with domestic pathos. II not wish
to preak laws, he said, 'but ven the man
comes, tells me to pc jury, drinks l
must sthay up all nights, dink of my vif
and familys, how they go to bolice stations
for me how dry dink | ish drowned or
drunk, how dey hont for me in de pad
places and dink it ish not goot" The
paternal heart of the Judge was touched,
his stern face softened, serene smile
beamed benevolently from his lips, and he
let the fellow off, only telling him to be
on hand in the morning Tri-

THE PARRICIDE,s DEFENCE.

The defence in the Wnlworth case is to
be hereditary homicidal insanity That
defence is two-cdged instrument. Under
1t will be considered the provoking insults
and threats of the father, which at the
same time are couched in such language as
to justify jury in concluding him to be
mentally unsound. During the trial on
Friday twenty-six letters from Mansfield
Walworth to his wife were read by Mr..
O'Conor. They were full of oaths, bias
phemy, hatred of his wife, foul epithets
and threats to murder her. These letters
had all been perused by his coming fate,
the pale, silent boy at home, who put them
away in his desk without showing them to
his mother.
In a coarse and threatening letter to his
sister. Mansfield Walworth announces that
he was not born, but let down from heaven
In n basket He is the true Messiah, and
is going to make her queen of one of the
kingdoms into which he intends to divide
the world He signs himself IN. 7. Wal
worth, the true and eternal Son of God"
He writes to Judge Barbour threatening
to cowhide Mrs. Walworth in the street
and cut her within an inch of her life for
circulating libel on him and in another
letter threatens to blow out the judges
| brains il he interferes again between him
and his wife. In letter to Gen. Hardin,
his wfe's brother, he says it had been his
deliberate purpose to shoot his wife since
she took his children from him. hut now If
| Gen. Hardin did not make her dcsst from
trying to get his two-thirds of the trust
property, he would certainly do so. He
had meditated murder every night for two
years on account of that property.
Such rawlings indicate condition of in
sanity in Mansfield Walworth with n
strongly homicdal tendency. To show
that the boy had probably inherited it, his
mothers testimony was admitted after
some hesitation by the judge. On one oc-
casion, about ten days previous to the sep
aration, her husband used personal violence
which severely bruised her arm and caused
her to scream Frank came i'm and staid
with her till midday of the next day. HcI
husband remained till morning She
noticed on Frank an extreme pallor, O
pinched look, and that his features bore an
expression of severe suffering. Afterwards
when he had read one of his fathers letters
she found him pale and with his body
rigid His memory began to fail, he be
came absent minded. and several time.

The party then approached the house,
Rambo, Brunk and Manseau going to the
portico. McWilliams was called for, with
the announcement that friend was there
and wished to see him. At that time win
dow shutters were thrown open, and the
detective, Brunk, sprang into the window,
aided in so doing by large box previously
placed beneath it by Mr. McWilliams to
aid him in entering. As he entered he fired
at Rambo, and several other shots were fired
by the men within.
Rambo fell and died Immediately, having
been shot four times. Monroe Immediately
ran, dropping his pistol in his flight. Man
seau fired two shots, one of which made a
slight flesh wound on the inner side of Mr..
Coopers right thigh. Monroe and Manseau

ID with very fine effect The "Hosanna
in excelss" with the splendid tenor solos
was especially worthy of notice. This
choir of st. Peters church numbers some
fifty members, and renders the difficult SER
vice with noticeable correctness, At the
close of the mass Bishop DeGoesbriand
took occasion to congratulate the church
and society upon their new house of wor-
ship, which he considered one of the finest
in New England. His remarks were high
ly complimentary to Father Boylan and
the society who have done so much for them
selves. A collection was then taken up.
which amounted to nearly one thousand
dollars, showing the characteristic bounty
that is poured out on every occasion by
this congregation.
The closing services of the day occurred
in the afternoon, and consisted of recita.
ton of the Rosary and blessing of the
Banner of the Blessed Virgin to the ladies
of the Sodalities, with an appropriate
discourse by Bishop DcGoesbrand, ofBur
lngton, after which the benediction ol
the "Blessed Sacrament was pronounced
and the exercises of the day were brought tt
close.
