SLAUGHTER OF II INNoCENT>.-
The inquest on the body Of the muir
dered infant found hidden under a
water tank on h street. was concluded
last night and a verdict granted. A
singular and somewhat startling cpl
sOde occurred during the investigations.
y young man was sworn and placed
upon the stand. Several questions
Were put to him. but he seemed at a
loss to know what the Coroner and
District Attorney were driving at. At
length he remarked that he thought
there was Il mistake somewhere; he
knew nothing of the case under invcs-
tigation, and supposed that he had been
>~ubppnaed to testify i'm 1.-THE other
case of infantcide lie was then
asked about 1.-THE other case" and re-
vcaled a mystery Of which no one
present but himself had vel heard any
thing. District Attorney Stephens is
looking into - the other case" to-day,
and Will undoubtedly bring to light
another east of child murder. Mean
time, yesterday afternoon, a woman
had reported still another case to Cor
oner Holmes, stating that Il child had
been born in IA certain house Giving
the street and number). and that it had
subsequently been cut ntwo, about the
center of the body, and the pieces
thrown into the vault of Il certain
privy. No little excitement has been
created i'll the community by
these horrible revelations and r,-
mors, and nothing less than a
rigid investigation into each case re-
i,orted and a rigorous enforcement of
the law will satisfy the people. who
demand that this wholesale slaughter
ofthe innocents shall be stopped.-Jir-

FEMALE DISEASES.
Only Treatment that will Cure
Thesa Ills.

The frequency and extent Of female dis.
eases Is positive proof that the common
treatment has failed to cure them. Every
household has Its delicate sufferer. Wher-
ever woman Is found these ailments exist
without alienation. From the day the
blushing girl ripens into womanh0od, dis
ease becomes her constant attendant. With
many ladies these ills are so great that life
has few charms, death Is regarded as
blessing and the grave as the only refuge
from persisting and inevitable agony.
: These diseases are Of peculiar nature
and REQUIRE an entirely different treatment
from common ailments. During prac.
tlcal experience OF fifteen years we have
fully proven that no treatment VIII ever
be successful In these cases that does not
combine both local and constitutional
measures. Poisoning the system with
drugs for misplacements Of the womb and
other arrangements OF this organ and its
appendages, so lar from removing the evil,
has beer the cause Of much serious mis-
chief. But adopting our only rational treat
ment, we can promise prompt relief Rnd
permanent cure in every case In which
reasonable hope can be entertained. We
not only benefit, but restore hundreds to
perfect health who have sought relief in
vain from other sources. We. now offer
you health and happiness. Let nothing
stand in the way Of your cure. The longer
you delay, the worse you will grow until
You become incurable.

Legislature recommending the appoint
ment Of a commission OF five or seven
statesmen 70 prepare new Constitution
for Virginia or amendments to the ex-
isting one. His plan is to have the
report OF this commission adopted by
two successive Legislatures. and then
ratified by the people, which is the
mode prescribed in the Constitution for
its own amendment. The Governor OBJ
jects to the size OF the legislative body
and to the restrictions upon legislative
power; also to the mode Of voting by

THE editor of the Wellsburgh NsUs,
having read the beautiful poem by
Judge G. W. THOMPSON, published in
the Snhday Neaos on Easter morning,
thus refers to the poem and it's author:
Scattered throughout, here and
there may be found IDEAS indicative OF
the true spirit OF poesie. For instance
take the couplet,
thine as he moves, nobler beauty
And round his course the choir of nature
sings"
This is but an expression of that
deep penetration, which sees beauty in
age, and grandeur in the ruins OF by
gone time. The Coliseum at Rome is
not only beautiful, but sublimely 30,
and go the gentle smile, and tremb.
ling old Monsieur Gillenormand OF
Victor Hugo. There is beauty in the
old age OF the patriarchs Of the Bible,
for time as he moved, nobler. grand.
er beauty brought to them az exhibited
in their declining years and death.
The Choir of Nature" singing around
old father time as he joys on toward
the eternity of the future, is brimful OF
the music OF the spheres" We have
only space to refer in addition to the
closing line.
Think-act, though earth should tempt
thee from the skies,
With truth and love be wisely bold to rise,
And forward to the better land
And lean upon thy Brothers hand,
And human heart, but free from stain,
viii hold thee with a steadfast hand,
And lead thee to the better land.
We question If the human and Dr.
vine nature and mission Of the Redeem-
er was ever more accurately and sweets
" alluded to. The author, Geo. w.
Thompson was for many years Judge
OF this Judicial Circuit, aud was uni-
versally esteemed for urbanity Of de-
pertinent, and the accuracy of his de-
cisions. At one time in his public ca
reer, he lacked but one vote OF receiv-
ing the nomination by the Democracy
for Governor OF Virginia, over COM
petitors possessing not only State but
national regulations.
During the war he opposed the ultra
isnaticism Of the staying at home blat-
taut patriots, and was forced in conse-
queuce to retire from the bench. Al
ter much persecution. not only from
the press but from the public he at
last by virtue We believe of Democratic
rule was enabled to return from Ohio
