News OLA horrible murder reaches
us from Nihton. A travelling william
stopped at asAqpse few miles west
Of the place a ~ days ago hungry
and pennilcss and was kindly cared
for until on Wednesday morning he
arose from his bed md murdered his
sleeping companion boy Of II years
and attempted the lives of Others in
the house. but being detected fed and
atlast accounts had not been captured.
His object was doubtless to secure .
large amount Of money which he had
ascertained was in the house. He can
hardly escape and we will give fur
ther particulars in our next.
Thomas G. Orwig, the juror who
stood out SO long against convicting
Howard, has addressed letter to the
Governor, in which he says, the jury
first divided on eight guilty, four not
guilty !; that afterwards three Of the
minority voted guilty but he had
reasonable doubts. Finally he gave
up, after Judge Maxwell, with tears in
his eyes, had told the jury there was
, necessity for a verdict which he
dared not tell them. This, Orwig
says, let him out. He calls upon the
Governor to investigate his actions,
and punish those guilty Of overthrow
ing law and order.
