Delaware Republican. (Wilmington, Del.) 1843-1874, 1873-06-12

That II is mine of untold wealth to Its own
ers may be seen when 1t Is stated that II finds a
ready market at $500 per ton in the rock, deliv-
cred at the railroad station, or $500 per ton
when crushed. The present owners are rapid
ly perfecting machinery for crushing 1t at
the works, and as soon as this can be done
their success Is assured, as there Is no linn
it to the demand, and apparently none to the
supply. Large quantities are being shipped
to France, and other countries, besides what |
finds market at home.
This Is the only mine of corundum known to
exist In the world and Chester county has the |
honor of being the only locality where 1t is
found in paying Misunderstanding Eagle.
The WALwoRTH PARRICiDE.-New York,
June 4.-Ihe excitement caused by the Wal
worth parricide has by no means subsidized
The dreadful decd formed the chief topic of
conversation everywhere to-day-at the hotels,
the clubs, and even at social gatherings. In
the meantime the parricide, young Walworth,
sat in his gloomy cell at the Tombs, to which
place lie was conveyed, and meditated on his
crime. lie preserved the same passive demean-
Or, a calmness so well maintained that 1t could
have been produced only by either com
plete lack OF sensibility or by the force Of
| liked and indomitable will. Charles O'Conor,
the advocate, Is said to have been retained in
| the case, arrived at the prison al an early hour
aud had consultation with his client. Tie
result or the tenor of the conversation cannot
| be stated. Mr.. O'Conors wel-known reticence,
aud young Walworth's determination not 10 say
anything more regarding the case, standing eff
| fectually In the way OF obtaining Information.
Judge GaIvin also called, and was closeted with
| the prisoner In the counselroom. Mrs. Wal
worth, the IN other Of the prisoner, and Judge
Barbour, cousin of the deceased, also visited
the Tombs during the day. While the scene
Oh the meeting OF the mother and son was af-
fecting, it was not marked by any display of ex-
traordinary emotion. The defence will be In
sanity.
No earthly eye saw the terrible deed except
that of the murderer He gives the last CONVEX
sation as follows, as reported yesterday
Walworth, the son, standing before his IA

mother, threatening her life and my own. WIN
