An Affecting Scene.

During the progress of the Gary tri-
al, three of his sisters were in constant
attendance, ever ready to extend that
love-teuder as sisters only is-for
an erring, ,hapless brother. On one occa-
sion piteous screams mingled with
heart-sobbings and sorrowful exclama-
tons. 81 cannot see him; oh, l cannot
meet him!" came from the vicinity of
the Court room door. One of his sis
tiers, from II distance, whom he had
not seen since his Incarceration, had
just arrived. Her distress was fearful,
and threatened her seriously. She
was taken to the hotel, and it was
hours before she could venture again
to enter the Court House. The fixed
ness of stare from out eyes bloated and
suffused from weeping and tears, from
these sisters, only evidenced the depth
of the womanly, the sisterly sympathy
that had been stirred for the unfortu-
nate brother. Every heart in that
Court room melted in pity for poor
Jim. But see!-three beautiful chill
dren-one only a mere babe-approach
the unhappy man; the eldest, a modest
girl, bends over him and pours out her
soul in tears, for she cannot speak. The
second approaches and stands by the
knee of the prisoner, while the young
est makes an effort to climb upon his
lap. Fearing to trust himself here,
brave soldier though he had beeli, he
sat stolidly looking off toto an unpTom-
ising vacancy! But at last the ''foun
tains Of the great deep" OF fathers
love are broken up, an;i he clasps them
in his arms, and commingleS his tears
with theirs. 1t is James Gary, the af-
fectionate father, and his worse than
orphaned children. Ah, there was q
sight! And why all this? Why not
let James Gary take his Inotherless
and homeless children away to enjoy
their prattle and their song? Why de
tain him here, while they need his love
and care and fatherly protection? We
answer, for little filthy lucre-a lev
pennies, bad man seeking his ruin
held to his lips a chalice that contained
the demon murder in it. He drank
he fell, he murdered GOtlieb Paul in
frenzy induced by rum; and he is to

upon that Courthouse scene, that the
wretch who sold James Gary the
drink that unnamed him and made
him demon on that fatal 18th of June
last, had been there to witness it, and
to have received into his heart the con-

there to burn, like molten drops OF
lead, while his poor victim suffered and
