fittingly from him as something in the line OF

MT. VERNON, Feb. 6.-John McCor-
mick, a wealthy iron merchant, was mur-
dered in his store last night. The body
was discovered this morning lying on the
floor with his skull crushed from blow
of sledge hammer. A more iendish,
cold blooded murder was never perpe-
trated. The victim had no enemies. Mr.
Mccormick was an eccentric man, and
kept his money about the store, fact
the murderer knew doubtless. No con-
lecture is made as to the amount ol
rponey they obtained from the safe. Fif
teen thousand dollars in currency and u
large amount of bonds were found to-day
secreted behind pile of iron. No clue
to the criminals but vigorous search is
being made. A large reward is offered

TERRIBLE SUFFERING.

The stories of want and suffering that
come from Kansas are terrible to contem-
plate. Twelve hundred persons are said
by reliable authority, to be living on the
most scanty charity, and advices from
Burr Oak, Jewell county, state that ten
miles west of that place two familiss have
starved to death. One numbered eight
persons. When found, the husband,
wife, and six children were dead. The
other family consisted of delicate
woman and one child. the husband
went to st. Soseph's for help, but when
it came both mother and child were dead.
Many more will starve unless they are
helped at once, for there is OF one man
in hundred with grain enough to last
through the winter.-& Paul Pioneer.

COLUMBUS, Feb. 6,


In the House bills were introduced pro-
viding that persons convicted of murder
in the first degree shall be confined in
the penitentiary two years before the ex-
ecution, and shall then only be executed
on warrant of the Governor. To repeal
that part fthe law of evidence which
forbids persons who have read news
paper testimony of criminal cases for
serving as jurors in such cases. To for
bid judges sitting in any case where any
party interested is related to them by
blood or marriage. To compel all banks
organized under Ohio laws to make
quarterly reports of business statistics.
To establish an asylum for the incurable
insane.
1t seems that for two weeks past the
attendance Of members has been better
than heretofore during this session.
Mr.. Stones bill providing for the abo-
lition of capital punishment was dis
cussed Thursday afternoon and Friday
forenoon last week, after which it was
put on it's passage and lost. Then a tus-
sic occurred on Senator Reese's bill pro-
viding for the modification of the Adair
liquor law. The bill comes up again un
Wednesday at half past two o'clock as a
special order 1t is questionable whether
it can pass IN its present form. Some
modification seems necessary to secure
its passage.
Senator Worthington's bill doing away
with second trials passed the House some
days ago amended. 1t went to the Sem
ate, where the amendments were dis
agreed to. A committee of conference
ensued, which reported new bill thatac-
complishes that object. The House has
agreed to it, and the Senate will undoubt-
edly do likewise.
Some anxiety is being manifested in
some quarters that the General Assembly
shall adionrn soon, The session should
not extend beyond the 10th of March
That would make 100 day session, and
that would be the shortest session the
State has had for years.

Earl Granville remarked that the list
of new measures proposed by the Gov

leave the question of the recognition of

The Duke of Richmond replied that the
Government would decide that question
on its own responsibility.
In the House of Commons during the
