sent forth last weeks FREE TRADER to It's many
patrons, we were cuticcd by sounds Of sweet mu-
sic to Main street, where upon the evening balmy
air came trip, trip, trip, as OF tiny cavalry corps
and occasionally strains from the violin to draw
us further toward the hall. On entering, We sud
denly became conscious that the event Of the
season was in full blast, that the injunction
$50 slcer till morn, when youth and pleasure
meet
To chase the glowing hours with flying feet
had gone forth. We bchcld fond mama's smil
inc at the proficiency OF their household idols,
and the heads of families praisin" the indications
of speed as exhibited by their rOmpiug boys.
The ubiquitous Bowman, with back hair mop
ping in the breeze, sat a silent spectator, Whllc
the good old Deacon smole an appropriating
smile upon the thropg assembled.
The party consisted Of some 50 in full mask OF
the rising generation, who, under the very
efficient instruction OF Prof. Willis, had become
expert in all
The giddy mazcs of the dance

OF children of an Older growth.

"Wednesday brought the 18th anniversary OF
Father Tcrry's admission into the ministry Of the

greetings from several Of his fellow ministers
and assurances Of love and esteem from the laity
OF his parish, but also those tokens of esteem aud
reverence which thrill the nerves Of A stalwart
man, TO wit: the grateful offerings from childish
affection and purity, the twinng Of fowery gar
lands round the brow Of their beloved instructor
and the presentation Of substantial mcmcntocs
to their spiritual adviser.
The exercises were participated in by Rev

Tho Kansas guHarara

We have been shown letter from Mrs. Draper,
Strawberry Hills, Kansas, TO the ladies Of the
First Presbyterian church, Of this city, acknOWI-
edging the receipt Of two large boxes containing
clothing and provisions, which those ladies sent
to the Kansas sufferers during the month Of De-
cember, in which she speaks Of the great need in
which they stood, and Of their great joy In re-
ceiVing the boxes. We make this statement for
the double reason Of correcting the statement
made by Mr.. Bramhall on Friday morning, to the
effect that nothing had been done by this city for
the Kansas sufferers, and also to show that what
ever is sent to the Kansas sufferers is very much
needed, and will be very thankfully received.
letter was read in the New YOrk-avenue
Presbyterian church yesterday morning from q
missionary in the devastated and terribly-desti-
tute portion Of Kansas, asking for a contribution
of lone hundred dollars, which would buy two
car loads Of coal ana keep fifty families warm for
two weeks" Instead OF 800, nearly 800 were
handed in, which will be forwarded to-day. Any
persons desiring to add their contribution to the
above may hand 1t to the Rev. s. S. Mitchell or
to Charles Bradley, cashier National Bank Of the
Republic, who will see that 1t is promptly for
WaTded.

The case was here opened to the jury by Mr..
Z. K. Brown. Mr.. Barrett followed for the de-
fence. The stroke Of the clamp about O'Clock
in the evening, the insensibilty Of the defendant
next morning, and his death next evening with
slight wound in the front Of his head ard frac-
tuTe at the base OF the skull, were proved. The
defence showed that Hahn had been abusing
Norwood; but set up that the fracture Of the
skull caused death, and that II was very doubtful
whether q blow on the forehead could produce a
fracture AT the base Of the skull. Mr.. Harring-
ton concluded the argument.
The Court then gave the jury instructions as to
the law, and the case was submitted to the Jury,
which, after an hours absence from the court
room, returned q verdict OF Acquittal. The 90
eusGd was thereupOn discharged.
