The Accused Confesscs 10 His Crime.
The investigation into the charges preferred
against Norris Perpi for the alleged setting fire to
the stables on Fashion Stud Farm last Thursday,
was postponed to Tuesday next, in consequence oi
the state not being ready to proceed. The pris-
oner, in the meantime, was committed to the
County Jail in default OF 81 900 BAIL The postpone
ponement seemed to be on account of Mr..
Cook and other witnesses being unable to identity
Perpil as the person who made use of the threats
published IN the HERALD or Saturday. They say
that II was another man, and not Perpil, who was
guilty OF using the language imputed to him. The
only evidence brought forward against the accused
was that based on an afldavit made by Mr.. jack
man, attaching suspicion to him. and on which the
prisoner was hed. Yesterday morning, however,
all doubts as to the imprisoned mans guilt were
removed, when he made complete con-
fession OF his crime. The PRISON onciais so harped
on him with cross questions that they elected from
the fellow a full confession. His trial will take
place very soon, ana no doubt the iul penalty Will
be meted out to him. He is anxious to have his
trial come or Immediately. The news OF his con-
tession spread like wid-dre through Trenton, and
created profound sensation.

While depot square and environs

is probably, generally known in this

for sometime, had band class under
instruction, but we believe it was only
few evenings since that the band
first appeared on our streets and IA
vored our citizens with a few choice
selections. As Prof. Ladd is an ac-
complished musician and a most ener-
getic conductor besides being filled
with public spirit, and as all the men,
bers of the Band are naturally of a
musical turn, there is no reason why
we may not have Band which will
compare favorably with any in this
part of the State. Let our citizens
strain themselves to encourage this
Band pay for the instruments by an
early testimonial in some big hall.
