THE MoRDEcAI-McCARrY DUEL
FUNERAL OF Mr.. MoRDEcAL-The sec
onds in the McCarty -Mordecai duel sur
rendered themselves to the authorities
in Richmond on Friday, and are in Gus
tody. In order to have the advantage
of their testimony the inquest was re-
newed. They all, however, refused, by
by advice of counsel, to testify, pleading
the old privilege of Withholding any ev-
idence that might criminate themselves.
DR.. Mcguire gave detailed testimony,
ana the jury found the verdict.
The Jurors sworn to inquire by what
means the said John B. NIordecai came
to his death, say that he came to his
death by pistol-shot wound inflicted
upon him by w. Page McCarty on the
9th Of May, 1878, while engaged in a
duel with said McCarty, and from the
effect of said wound he died on the 14th
day of May, 1878. And they further
say that William B. Tabb, j ohm S. Mer-
edith, William L. Royal, and William
b. Trigg were accessories to his death;
and that Drs. J. S. d. Cullen and Hun
ter Mcclure are censurable for not hav-
ing given information concerning said
duel to the proper authorities i'll time
to have prevented 1t.
The steps to be taken by theprosecu-
ton still remain unknown, the question
Of the jurisdiction not having yet been
raised, although it is generally supposed
that the crime was committed in the
county, and not within the city limits.
On Saturday morning the seconds of
both parties were brought into the 20
lice Court on the charge set forth i'll the
warrant against them. No investigation
was had, however The case was con
tinued until Thursday next,and the par
ties committed to Jail.
The funeral of Mr.. JohnB. Mordecai,
on Friday, at st. Jamess Church, was
one of the largest ever witnessedin that
city. The burial service of the Episco-
pal Church was read by the Rev. DIR.
VIM. Norwood, rector of Emmanuel
Church, Henrico. After the singing of
a solemn hymn, which was read by
Rev. DIR. Peterkin, the remains, escorted
by the family and friends, in long pro
cessfon of carriages, were carried to
their last resting place-the family bur
rvinc ground, Westbrook, in Henrlco
county, about two miles from the city,
on the Brook road.

A JudiciOus Wife.

A judicious wife is always nipping Of
from her husbands moral nature little
twigs that are growing in the wrong direc-
tions. She keeps him in shape by constant
pruning Ifyou say anything silly she
will atfectionately tell you so. If you de.
clare you will do some absurd thing, she
will find some means for preventing you
doing it. And 10y far the greater part of
common sense belongs unquestionably to
woman. The wisest things man com
monty does are those which she counsels
him to do. A wife is the grand wielder of
of the moral pruning knife. If Johnson's
wife had lived, there would have been no
boarding up of orange peel, no touching
all the posts in walking along the streets,
eating and drinking with disgusting vo-
racity. If Oliver Goldsmith had been mar
ried, he would never worn that memorable
and ridiculous coat. Whether you find
man whom you know little about, oddly
dressed, or talking absurdly,or exhibiting
an eccentricity of manner, you may be toll
erably sure that he is a married man, for
the corners are rounded off, the little shoots
pared away in men. Wives generally have
much more sense than their husbands, es-
pecially when their husbands are clever
men. The wife's advices are always the
ballast which keeps the ship steady.
The aegis & intelligencer. [volume] (Bel Air, Md.) 1864-1923, 1873-02-28

All at once, her whole life passed before
her soul: its follies, extravaganza its wick
ed vanity and pride. She repented-but
too late. Once more, she made desperate
effort to rend the hellish robe asunder.
impossible ! the wool was woven in hell,
and defed human effort. Mad with despair,
she rushed up and down the grand corridor
of her house, arrayed like queen but curs-
ing like a maniac. Then it struck twelve.
The door flew open, and the bag stood
before her. A fiendsh smile lit up her
rough, swarthy features, and there was
something diabolical in the wild, phosphor-
escent glitter of her eyes, as she derisiyely
laughed, and said
You promised me for my payment what
ever my garments should cover at this
hour. They cover you, my lady, and there
fore you are mine ~
Then blue fame lit the apartment
the hag was transformed to the Prince of
He'll, while the velvet and gold of the en-
broidery became Kissing, cracking flames,
which licked and wrapped in their glitter
ing arms, the handsome face and the dainty
form ofthe struggling, shrieking victim.
Then the vain woman called upon Saint
Barbara-her patron saint-to forgive her
sins, and deliver her from hell.
Lo the Saint heard her Satan had just
reached out for his victim, when Saint
Barbara appeared and gave the vain woman
a mighty push. The claws of the devil
just missed the fainting woman. The cock
crowed; she was saoed
When the rescued woman recovered, she
made her Saint VOW and performed it
fully. AS penitent Magdalen she passed
the rest of her life, cured of her vanity and
pride. To commemorate this event, and as
a warning to those whose love for dress
might end in the ruin of their souls, this
scene of the Devil and the Dame, has been
hewn in stone, and can be seen to this day
in Vienna and in consideration of the
vain woman's wonderful escape, both the
house in which the scene occurred as we'll
as the street in which it stands, have been
named, and are now known as "The Push
into Heacen.n

THE NEEDLE.-The invention Of the
needle is ascribed by the best authorities
to the natives of India. 1t was first intro
duced from that country into England in
the year 1916. 1t was then very costly
instrument. TWAS not generally used, how
ever, until some fifteen or twenty years
afterwards. From that time to this, it has
been as extensive q means of employment
and support as the plough or anvil, and
yet has produced an untold amount of mise
ry. Strange does it seem that mere line
of steel, held in woman's delicate fingers
should produce such poignant suffering
Yet in great cities-whe wealth demands
all that ministers to luxury and pride-the
needle is q mightier weapon than the sword
keener instrument of torture than the gilt
tering spear. 1t causes moro nerves to
culver with anguish and the death it pro-
duces is slow and lingering With its
little arrow of steel, it opens an entrance
into the human flesh for almost every kind
ofpain. 1t is not alone the fingers and
eyes that suffer, but there is fearful waste
of nerves and brain. 1t bends the chest
and STILES the lungs, preparing the way
for coughs and consumption. But thanks
to the inventive power of human genius
and skill, a machine is now taught to do
the work of human fingers, and with its
swiftly flying wheels it achieves the labor
of many hands. The world-renowned Howe
Machines can be obtained ON such easy
terms that every one, no matter how slender
their means may be can obtain one. Call
