ALL THE SHERIFg's SALES UPsEr.- We
are informed that all the Sheriff sales for
this county, made since the last court,
have been upset by the present court.
The ground for the upsetting, as stated
to US, is as follows:
In New Castle county it is the custom,
when the sheriff makes distraint upon
a property. with view to sale thereof,
to notify all the parties who may have
liens entered against said property. In
this county, however, the custom has
been to make the sale upon the claim of
the party pushing, without any notifica-
tion whatever to the other parties who
may have claims entered upon the dock
ct. The court directs that hereafter all
parties who have claims-claims duly en-.
tered-shall be duly notified by the Sher-
if Of any and all steps he makes or pro-
poses to take looking to the distraint and
sale Of any real estate. Sush is the case,
as stated to US by an interested party in
this town.--Smyrna Times.

slight discoloration of one of them,
which was probably the result of an
old attack of pleurisy; the liver was
somewhat light colored, but not sufil-
ciently SO to cause ill health; the stem
ach was in good condition; her death
undoubtedly resulted from inflammation
of the braia, produced by the wound
in her head; the wound was not prop
erly treated; wounds of this character
have been treated with success; we
saw no symptoms of erysipelas; /; ! don't
think Mrs. Chadwick could have been
conscious during the last few days of
her life, owing to the condition of the
wound.
In corroborating the above testimony
DIR. A. IL. Grimshaw further testified ::
The Inflammation of the brain was so
great that when we removed 1t (the
brain) the blood flowed continuously !;
the heart, lungs, stomach and bowels
were all right; the wound had not been
properly treated; we saw not the slight
est symptoms of pneumonia or orysip-
elias; a wound like the one on the head
OF the deceased could be produced
with sharp instrumental club with
sharp. edge; = fall against door
would not be likely to produce it, but
fall against the banister might; the
woman, however, would have had to
fall backwards, to cut her head in the
manner she did, If she fell down the
| steps near the garden.
After receiving tho testimony Of the
doctors, the jury deliberatcd and final
ly agreed upon verdict tina: the de-
ceased "came to her death from a
wound in the head, produced by vio-
lence at the hands of her husband,
VIM. II. Chadwick" But two mem
bels of the jury dlssented from this
verdict.
THE ARREST.
| A Aiter the rendering of the verdict
The Coroner, accompanied by Consta-
BILE Woodward and officer Bernhardt,
went out to Chadwick's house and ar
rested him. He was very much down
cast, and asked permission to remain
at h me all night under arrest. The
l.4uust was denied but he quietly sub
mit!. and was taken to the City Hall
CHADwICK's BEARING.
During the night and this morning,
Chadwick continued in a very depres-
seh condition and WAS evidently very
much affected. He says the affair orr
ginatcd in his drunken spree, and that
he POSSIBLY pushed against his wife,
causing her to fall against the door
and cut her head. He positively denies
striking her, add says he would be very
sorry If any act of his occasioned hel
death.

Mr.. Cfadwick's eldest daughter, who
has been cripple and an invalid for
years was SO much affected by hei
mothers death and the attending cir.
cumstances that she is now lying very
