Horrible and Mysterious Murder Of a

even more horrible IN its details than
that of Mrs. Bingham, a few weeks
since, was perpetrated in this city this
afternoon. A bright little girl, five
years of age, was murdered in church
and the bruised and mutilated body car
ried up into the tower and thrown upon
the floor of the loft. The victim of this
cruel tragedy was Mabel H. Young, who
with her widowed mother resided with
her grandfather at the East Chester
Park. The latter, Mr.. James Hobbs, is
well known and highly respected mer-

minutes before was at her side. At first
1t was supposed she had gone back into
the church, but when she was not found

had not come out the aunt became

ARigkteoas verdict.

Judge Ackert, of New York, has re-
Gently mnde decision which is of great
importance to large class of people in
strained circumstances, Tie case was
that of poor widow named Catherine
White against one Hickox, an agent of
the Howe sewing machine company,
Mrs. White had purchased a sewing
machine of Hickox on what is known as
the installment plan, paying ten dollars
down and agreeing to pay five dollars a
month thereafter until the whole debt
should be paid. The payments were
regularly made until only five dollars
remained due, and then her husband
was taken sick and died. The expenses
of his illness and funeral prevented her
from meeting the demand which was
speedily made for the balance owing to
Hicllox, and the machine was forcibly
taken away from her, without restitution
of the money'she had already paid on
it. The Judge decided that contracts
for the sale of property, resolving the
right of reclamation on the part of the
seller, without restitution of any part of
the purchase money paid, were contrary
to public policy and injurious and op-
pressive to deserving class of people.
After having sixtyive collars of the sew
enty for which the machine was sold,
Mrs. White had acquired some title of
it. She had, besides, never signed the
printed form purporting to be a con
tract, aud had finally offered to pay the
five dollars still due, which the agent
refused to accept. Judgment was given
against Hickox 1t is to be hoped that
the result will be salutary in preventing
the repetition of outrages of the char
acter attempted in this instance.

From the Detroit Free Press.
Bristow, they say, looks with hungry
eye upon the Presidency, and it is this
which animates him in his assaults upon
the Whisky Ring. II this be the case,
we only wish that every other officer, in
high and low position under Govern
ment, had similar aspiration to Bris-
tow, and that they would be affected by
it as he is affected. We apprehend,
however, that Bristow's native honesty
and opposition TO corruption are the
real moters of the efficient work he has
done, and that his highest motive is to
do his full duty as he understands it.
Fortunately for the country, he has a
keen appreciation of what his duty is.

and az new way to deceive her. Mr..
Robert Lincoln, for whom he lad sent
the moment he first saw her in his store,
had not arrived, and there was no one at
hand into whose care she could begiven.
The only thing to be done was to keep
her waiting as long as possible, in the
hope that relief of some kind would
come. So he informed her that all the
laudanum he had was kept in the cellar,
and to that place he withdrew to prepare
another compound of burnt sugar and
water. An ounce vial was filled with
this, labeled Laudanum-poison, and
given her, and, as in the former case,
she stepped out on the sidewalk and
drank the fluid, after which she hurried
to her room. Shortly afterward her son
arrived, and finally, finding all her eff
forts futile, she quietly submitted to
surrounding circumstances, and when
the hour for her departure arrived she
accepted the kindly attentions of the
friends who came to the depot 80 pleas
antly that not one of the party suspected
the terrible determination she had had
in her mind until it was told them after
her departure. -[Chicago Times, 21st.
The New York Tribune says We
deem it not intrusive to say, also, that
the only surviving son of Mr.. Lincoln
deserves in this calamity the respect and
consideration of every one. He has
borne himself with irreproachable
dignity and decorum. He 1ias asked
nothing from tile country which was so
deeply indebted to his father He has
gained an enviable position in his pro
fession and in society by his own merit
and industry He is not man TO give
way to misfortune, however sorely tried.
But he ought not to be left to meet this
last affliction without the assurance of
the respect and good will which his
character, no less than his name, de-
serves.
