Last Saturday evening some rascal, on
mischief bent, entered the residence OF
Mr.. MCGUIRE, in Trenton, Todd county,
while the family were at church, and
concealed himself in the room of Miss
Mcclure. On returning from church
she discovered the odor of chloroform
about her room but seeing nothing unu>
sual, retired. Soon after she went to bed
the villain came out from his place O.
coDcealment and took hold of her person.
She screamed violently, and members OF
the family hearing the alarm rushed Il
the room, causing the wretch to leap from
the window (second story to the ground
He made good his escape.

The Governor of Georgia said at the
Atlanta Fourth of July celebration: ]
shall not remark upon the unhappy d.
visions that have been existing between
the people of the Union. 1t would not
be proper to do it at this occasion. But
let me say this to you: intelligent men
everywhere are beginning to see signs Of
breaking day, 80 far as we are concerned.
And let me say another thing, 60 far as
the great masses of the people Of the
North are concerned, there is really but
very little, ifany, difference between them
and the Southern people. [Applause |
am glad to know that disposition is in
both sections to have the people meet, to
have them mix together. talk together
and compare their views. And let me
tell you that when the people meet and
shake hands, the soulless demagogues
and the tricky politicians had better get
out of the way. Applause. For it is
to the devices of this pestiferous class
that the long estrangement and separa-
ton of the people of the South is due. ]
am happy to know that such occasions
as this tend to heal the breach, for here
is presented platform that all can stand
upon. If we agree upon nothing else, We
agree in the truths set forth in the Decla-
ration of Independence. Standing upor
the platform we can meet as friends
whatever our difference may be upon
other questions in the past.

In our perambulations around town
this week, we dropped into L. j. Lyons
new grocery store. He occupies one Of
the best stands in town. He has now,
and keeps on hand, a full line Of all
kinds Of groceries. His success here has
been wonderful, having commenced four
years ago on a capital of less than 500.
and it is attributable to his energy and
fair dealing with the people.

THE WEST FONT PICNIC
But there is another item which seems
highly worthy of notice, and that is an
account of the picnic at West Point
schoolhouse, on the 3rd inst. This was
made for the school at that place, which
closed with the days entertainment. AL.
though there was not such a multitude
as no man could number, yet there were
people enough to make the whole affair a
grand success. The programme stood:
first, a game Of croquet; second, refresh>
ments; and then a drive. The dinner
was what dinner should be-pleasant,
wholesome, and free, and it was fair
specimen of the production of Granger
skill and industry. But the fairest and
loveliest was a boquet and cake, which
now adorns the writer's shelf as a present
from Mrs. Ophelia Lindley. Aside from
my natural fondness for cake, have
reasons to be proud of this As a token
of regard, it is highly appreciated.
Though a lover of flowers in general, |

FOURTH EDITION
ReecAer Gone to the Ja,ru.

TheTiltor-Beecher care in theBrook-
lyn N. T., City Court, was given to
The jury yesterday. The Judge deliv-
cred an elaborate charge to the Jury on
submitting the case, in which he first
took occasion to state that he ALWAYS
refrained from stating to juries his
opinions upon controverted questions
OF TACT, and impressed itupon the jury
that they were the sole judges of the
weight Of the testimoney and Of the
credibility of the witnesses. In order
to aid them to a clear apprehension of
the questions. they were to consider,
the Judge-explained the nature Of d.
rectS circuInstantial and 'presumptive
testimony, and went over the various
phases of the, case, from which he
drew illustrations. leaving conclusions
to be weighed in Che light of conflict.
ing facts, circumstances and differences.
In the course of his charge the Judge
vindicated the integrity Of Mrs. Moul-
tom. without, however, involving the
merits of the case, and he also relieved
Gen. Tracy of any odium that may
have attached to him in his double
character of counsel and witness, At
ter concluding the charge the Judge
took up the requests to charge from
counsel for defense, and after complet-
Ing bis remarks thereon he gave the
case to the jury at eighth minutes past
one o'clock p. III.
at ten O'clock 9 crowd was still walt
ing at the Court for the verdict, when
the Court was adjourned to ten A. N,
to-day.
