Trial of Lycurgus Little.

The evidence in this case for a week or two
past on trial in Winchester was closed on
Tuesday last, and the argument on the part Of
the State begun. A new feature Of the trial is
the admission of the testimony of members
of the family, which on the former trials was
excluded. Gilbert Little, brother of the
prisoner and Of the murdered man also, on
Thursday gave bis version Of the affair-at-
tri5uting the killing to accident, statement
materially different, says the Winchester
Times, from that made by him before the
Coroner. He now alleges that he was under
the influence of opiates at the time of his
statement, and not in condition TO testify.
Two physicians discredit the statement that
he was thus under such influences.
