A Minister EIOpes with Young
Lady.

THEIR VISIT TO THE CENTENNIAL, AND
WHAT CAME OF 1T.
Correspondence OF the Baltimore ABtcricd,
from Grafton, w. Va, Dec. 4, says:-A few
weeks ago this borough was thrown into con
siderable excitement by rumOr which
rapidly spread abroad, that the Rev. J. A.
Kibbe, pastor of the VI. +. Church, in this
place. had gone 10 tile Centennial Exhibition
with Miss Mary Wise, a Young lady sixteen
years of age. and a member of his cOngraga-
ton. The reverend gentleman has been here
for about three years, and has a wife and
three children. About twelve months ago il
was noticed that Inc was on very familiar
terms with Miss Wise, paying her marked
attention at various festivals held i'm the
church. and often walking with her through
the streets. This conduct at last reused the
Indignation OF several of his paFishiOners,
and they complained OfittO the trustees OF the
church, by whom he was reprimanded and
admonished 10 act in more clerical manner.
This advice, however, was unheeded by him,
and the trustees, although feeling that the
discipline OF the church ought TO be exercised
in his case, were ayerse TO bringing the
matter before the public, preferring rather tn
let him depart in peace when the term of his
passionate expired. On the evening of the It'll
OF November the lady in question and her
brother purpOsed leaving here for Philadel-
phia. The pastor was seen in the sittingroom
ofthe Grafton Hotel in company with Miss
Wise, and il was supposed he was bidding
her goodbye. But when she and her brother
left by fhe cars he accompanied them, and
sent note TO his wife, stating that he had
been unexpectedly called to Washington ID. C.
il now appears that before the party left Graf
ton, Miss Wise arranged with her ministerial
admiTer that when she arrived in Phiiadel-
phia she would steal away from her brother
and accompany him wherever he wished.
But after getting there she refused TO fulfil
her promise. Kibbe was so determined in
the matter that he acquainted her brother
with her faithlessness, and asked hilh To
iDtercede with her on his behalf, n modest
request which the young man refused. He
then appeared 10 be seized with a fit of
remorse, and sitting down on 1.-The ragged
edge" wrote a letter 10 the trustees of the
church, in which he stated that he was a
ruined man. and would not again return TO
the scene OF his pastoral labors and amatory
practices. The Presiding Elder OF the district
was notified. and a council, consisting OF
himself and five ministers, was held last week
at which the foregoing facts were adduced.
and the reverend gentleman was found guilty
of the charges preferred against HIM Much
sympathy is expressed for his wife and
family.

CONVICTION OF THE GLYMONr MURDER
ERs-The trial of the two colored men, JAS
Henry Butler. alias Charles III. Simpson, and
Charles Wilson, alias Martin Henry, for the
murder OF John w. Everett, near GlymOnt
on the 10Th of July, which began in the Cir
cult Court OF Charles county, Md, on Friday
was concluded Monday by a verdict of
guilty. Butler was seen al Glymont the day
prior TO the murder, and returned To Wash
1ngtOn, where he met Wilson, when he pro-
posed the murder, which both the following
evening committed. Several persons testi-
ned tO seeing both of the prisoners at Col.
Warnings store, where Mr. Everett was EN-
plOyed a. "a clerk ON the night of the murder,
and several saw them leaving the store early
In the morning after the murder was COM
United. They were traced step by step to
Sandy Springs, Montgomery county, where
they were arrested some weeks afterwards
The defense, though ably conducted, was
very meagre, the main point being an en-
deavoT TO prove an alibi "a to both prisoners
who were tried jointly. Squire Morgan testi
ned that Wilson confessed 10 him while in
jail at Leonardtown that that they commit
ted the murder, and that Butler planned it.
