The ACaoiaa Murder.
from the Chicago Tribune.1

The graphic narrative Of the murder
in Acadia and the hanging of the mur-
derer, Olivier Gallien, which was printed
in our last issue, dispels the poetical
glamour which has hung over this land
Of romance so long, and shows that
these people, whom the poets have
painted as so simple, happy, and inno-
cent in their pastoral lives, have the
same cares, and burdens, and miseries
as other beings whose praises have not
been sung upon poetical Tyres. More
than this, it would appear that these
poetically.happy Acadians are prosaic-
ally even more wretched and degraded
than the average Of human beings.
The story Of Oliver Gallien has not
only much Of misery and degradation,
but much Of pathos in it. 1t is difficult
to read the story without feeling of
sympathy or at least pity for the
poor wretch, dreadful as his crime was.
He was fisherman who barely support.
cd life by his vocation. He was ignor-
ant to the lowest degree. In intelli-
gence he was scarcely above beast of
burden. He lived in his hut with
Xavier Poulin. another fisherman,
equally poor, ignorant. and a loath-
some, degraded leper, and in this hut,
herded together, eating and sleeping
together in the same small apartment,
were the two fishermen, Gallien's sister
and Poulin's wife and children. The
village priest had ordered 4 practical
divorce between Poulin and his wife
when the former was seized With lep-
rosy, and the woman chose Gallien for
her affinity. The two lived together in
criminal intimacy for years With
Poulin's consent, and she bore children
to him. The arrangement, however,
was not satisfactory: to Poulin's wife,
and, desiring larger liberty, she worked
upon Gallien's feeble intellect until she
induced him to kill her husband. Many
and many = time he attempted to com.
NIT the deed, but his heart failed him
when it came to the moment of con-
summation. The fiendish woman even
sharpened the knife for him, and ut Inst

Il letter u 1872 Froaa Grant, he
claring He Did Not Ever Seek q
81 NDen6nattOee. !. -

By permission Of the President,
given yesterday, the Cincinnati Gazette
of to-day publishes letter written in
1872, prefaced by the following explain
atory remarks:
In 1872, when it was found that
Grant would be renominated, the re-
port was circulated that, in view Of the
many groundless reports as to his seek
ing the nomination, he would decline to
be candidate. So positive were
reports upon this point that in May,
1572, We wrote him a private letter on
the subject, to which q reply was re-
ceived, which We are now permitted to
print. This has nothing to do with
the third term, but it shows how Grant
felt with reference to the first and Sec
ond terms, and will serve to disabuse
the minds Of those, if any there be-,
who honestly believe that the Presi-
dent is capable Of scheming for a NOM
ination in 1876:
EXECUTIVE MANSION, J
WASHINGTON, May II, 1872.
DEAR SIR: Your favor of the 10th
inst, saying that the managers Of the
GQzstte had decided to come out
squarely for my nomination at Phila-
delphia June 5th, prox., when they
were met by the report that l would
either decline being . candidate before
the convention or would decline after
the nomination, was received last night,
after leaving my Office for the day. l
caused q dispatch to be sent you to the
effect that the report was without any
authority whatever. I am not in the
habit of writing letters on political sub
jects, and especially have I never writ
ten a letter calculated to influence a
convention as to who should be the
candidate before it, or selected by it !;
but your letter is Of such a nature as
to properly demand an answer, more
particularly as you say you will treat
my response as strictly confidential.
Now I will say that l never proclaim
ed myself q candidate, either before
the convention, which meets IN Phila-
de]phia this year, nor the convention
which was held in Chicago four years
~6Os AR'V AVvVA W11tSC1A q 4lNCS OOuC
an act, nor, I believe I say with truth,
entertained a thought calculated to
produce action by the the Republican
party in favor of my promotion over
that of any man in it who might be
their choice. do now, as I did four
years ago, sincerely believe that the
interests of the whole country demand
the success Of the Republican, party. II
deemed advisable am willing to make
any sacrifice to accomplish that suc-
cess. feel that I did make sacrifice
in giving up high position-so highly
priced by me-one created for me by an
appreciative public, for which act can
never thank them sufficiently. Now if
l can be Of any service to the party
that chose me then shall render that
service conscientiously and to the best
of my ability. The personal sacrifice
made four years ago cannot be made
| now.
With great respect I am your obed.

How 70 take Care of China and
Glassware.

Glassware.
In the average household few things
suffer more from i'll usage than porcc-
lain and glass, especially the finer kinds
of such ware. We copy from the Bos-
ton Journal Of Chemistry a few prac-
tical suggestions On the best methods
Of cleansing and preserving these fragile
materials:
One Of the most important things is
to season glass and china to sudden
change Of temperature, SO that they
will remain sound after such exposure
to sudden heat and cold. This is best
done by placing the articles in cold
water. which must gradually be brought
to the boiling point, and then allowed
to cool very slowly, taking several
hours to do it. The commoncr the
materials, the more care in this respect
IL required. The very best glass and
china is always we'll seasoned or an.
nealed, as the manufacturers say, before
it is sold. If the wares are properly
seasoned in this way, they may be
washed in boiling water without fear of
fracture, except in frosty weather, when,
even with the best annealed wares.
care must be taken not to place them
suddenly in too hot water. All china
that has any gliding on it may on no
account be rubbed with = cloth of
any kind, but merely ripsed in hot and
afterward in cold water, and thin. left
to drain till drv. TftfhH o;1d;r q, 10 ~.,,-,v

A hot lemonade is one Of the best
remedies in the world for a cold. It
acts promptly and effectively, and hae
no unpleasant after effects. One lemon
properly squeezed. cut in slices, put
with sugar, and cover with half pint
of boiling water. Drink just before
going to bed, and do not expose your
self on the following day. This rem
edy will ward off an attack of the chil}s
and fever if used promptly.

The OYSTER BAY, |. l., MURDER.
A Persistent Amateur Detective DIS.
covers the Nurderers and E'hey
Confess,

A murder was committed at South
Oyster Bay, on Long Island, in June,
1873, whose perpetrator has, until now,
escaped detection. The victim was
Samuel j. Jones, nephew of a chief.
justice OF New York, grandson Of an
other ex-judge, and brother-in-law to
Admiral Melancthion Smith. he was
bat :hclor. 20 years old, lived al.ac on
MS farm, and WAS rcputed to have con.
siderable money in his house. On Sat.
urday morning his body was found in
his well. On extricating it, it showed
bruises all over, evidently by stones
that had been thrown from above, and
deadly wounds on the head; the club
which inflicted them being found in the
house. The watch and chain of the
murdered man were gone, boxes and
desks were broken open, money and
papers were missing. The crime was
brutal and the motive sordid. The in.
terest of the story is principally in the
fact that. save for the persistent en-
deavors OF one man, not a professional
reflective, and who was often abused fer
his meddlesome disposition, the gull.
ty party might never have been brought
to justice. One Payne, resident near
the Bay, took it upon hun to discover
the murderer. By painfully working
up evidence of circumstantial nature,
he caused the arrest, last spring of a
alt-brother of the murdered Jones, a
rather sh ttless person, but examination
speedily acquitted him, and Payne was
soundly denounced for his action and
admonished to mind his own business,
but, instead Of that, he turned his at.
tentlon two two negroes, who were
vaguely suspected at the time of the
coroner's inquest. He made up his
mind that the club that dealt Jones the
fatal blow was Whitfield BY left-handed
man Lewis Jarvis, one of the negroes,
is left-handed. Such small clews as this
Payne followed up until he felt sure of
q result. Then he arrested the other
negro, Albert Jackson, and, on Tues.
day last, the second day of the exami.
nation before q justice, Jackson confessed
his own connection with the affair. as
An accomplice after the fact, and &C.
cused Jarvis Of the murder. Then was
presented the rare and cruel spectacle
sof.z g the wife swearing her husband s
life away under the close examination
made possible in the light of the con.
fession, rs yet unknown to her, Mrs.
Jarvis confirming, in almost every par.
ticular, the story Of Jackson. Jarvis
was At once arrested, and, yesterday,
confessed his guilt; asserting, however.
that Jackson was with him when he
threw the body into the well, and cast
stones upon it. A box containing part
o. the plunder Was found buried three
miles from the depot, at . spot indicated
t1y yssvfs Payne is therefore fullv
justified. e~r

Preparing and PackinE Poultry.

Preparing and Packing Poultry.
Poultry should be fat, and kept 24
hours from food before killing to have
the crop empty. Food in the crop
sours, blackens the skin, Injuries the.
sale Of poultry, and buyers will not
pay for this useless weight.. Opening
the vein in the neck or bleeding in the
mouth is the proper mode Of killing. If
bled inside the throat the bill should be.
pred open with piece of chip and the,
poultry be hung up by the feet on a.
line. This makes bleeding free and.
prevents bru'sing. The head and feet,
should be left on and the entrails,
in. The flesh should not be-
mutilated in any manner. Tur-.
keys and chickens dry.picked keep.
much 10, ger and sell high gher than the
scalded. If the picking is done by
scalding, the water should be heated:
just to the boiling point, and the poul-~
try held by the feet, dipped in and out
of the water four or five times, counting
three each time in and out. The work.
should be done quickly, neatly and'
thoroughly. After picking, hang up.
the poultry by the feet in cool, dry
place, till all animal heat is out and
the poultry thoroughly cold and dry.
Avoid freezing, as poultry will not
keep long after thawing. Wrap in
thin, light, strong paper. Brown and
dark, heavy paper, having too much
acid in it, Injuries the poultry. The
head should be wrapped separately. Al
ways pack head downward. This
throws the soft entrails
on the breast bone, the
poultry keeping longer in this position.
Pack in clean, dry, tight -four barrels.
Geese and ducks, after being killed.
should have all the feathers picked of,
then rubbed all over thoroug ghly with
fine resin, after which dip them in boil
ing hot water, in and out seven or eight
times, then rub off the pin-feathers,
after which wash off the fowl with
warm water, using soap and hand
brush. Immediately afte,, rinse them
well in cold water, then hang them up
by the feet in cool, dry place till they
are thoroughly dry, when they can be
wrapped and packed as before suggest
ed: Poultry thus dressed and packed
will. in moderately cold weather, keep
sweet and fresh for fifteen or twenty
days, and can be shipped from the ex-
treme West with safety, by freight.
Pure, soft water is the best of all
blood purifiers. It dissolves almost
every impurity that may find it's way
into the blood, and passes it off through
the skin, lungs and kidneys, thus wash
ing out the blood without any irrita-
ton in passing through the system and
without those chemical changes and de-
posits which are likely to arise from
the action Of drugs. Why then use
doubtful, dangerous and often injurious
drugs for purifying the blood, when
pure simple, safe. pleasant and far more
effectual water may be had without
money and without price?

remedies in the world for cold. It
