The Anne nde Honorable.

The Anne nde Honorable.
Mr. EDITOR If, as the old saw hath it, even
"wise men will sometimes make mistakes" how
could it be otherwise expected than that "a vener
able and aged correspondent" who, as you say,
is either demented or crazy, should also have
committed an error in his centennial mathematics
And so plead guilty to the impeachment The
error arose from careless taking it for granted
that hundredth dnnigersary was also the hun
dredh birth day of the nation; and as it could
easily be demonstrated that there were but ninety
nine spaces of time or years. between that num-
ber therefore the Republic must see another birth
day. the 0lst, before it shall reach It's centennial
year. But O,cea to your statement, which is true,
that boy born Jan. l, 1850, would be ten years
old jan |, 1860. Twas led to recount the number of
his natal days, and readily made the great dscov
cry" that as ten years embraced eleven of his
birth days, so one hundred years embrace the l0l
necessary to century. which number we have
from, and including l776 to 1876. So that the
centennial show at Philadelphia may still go on,
whether the gentlemen Of Texas or your cores
pendent wishes it or not.
l trust that our discussion has not been alto
gether uninterestng to your readers since it has
afforded you the opportunity of treating them to
some of your always acceptable pleasantries, and
SINCE too it must give pleasure to honorable minds
to witness how readily and cheerfully a man who
has made numerical mistake, acknowledges his
error and seeks to correct it. ID.

Capture of the WaldOborO Murderer.

A special to the Boston Journal from Waldo
boro, on Wednesday evening, says:
Thos Finn, who murdered his own child yester-
day noon, was found last night after the search
had been given up. Just as the men coming
from the woods where he had concealed himself,
he came out and called his brother back from the
ed to know what the mother said. lie told his
bi other he was up in tree all the time they were
looking for him and did not come down for fear OF
a dog that accOmpaDi led the party. He gave his
statement as follows lie says he first struck the
child on the head with his and then cut her
throat with the same axe. He also says be saw
his wife take the child her and carry II TO
a ueighbor's house. He then fled to the woods.
Drs. Quinlby and Ham of Jefferson contradict
his statement IN regard TO the instrument used in
cutting the childs throat. They both say 1t was
cut with knife of some kind, and not with an
axe.
County Attorney W. ii. Hilton, accompanied by
High Sheriff J. +. Morse and TRIAL Justice n. Nj.
Pike, arrived III town this evening, and proceeded
immediately to the scene of the horrible murder
W it'll a warrant for the arrest of the murderer.
No coionor's inquest will be held, as it is deemed
unnecessary. Finn will be arragned before Trial
Justice Pike tonight for preliminary examina-
ton, and as he acknowledges that he committed
the murder, be will probably plead guilty and be
committed to Wlscasset Jail by Sheriff Morse.
His friends will then make application to one Of
the Judges of the Supreme judicial Court to have
him sent to the Insane Hospital, pleading insanity
as the cause of the murder. No court viii be held
In this county till October. at which term he will
probably be indicted by the Grand Jury. Intense
excitement prevails here. The funeral of the child
takes place tomorrow afternoon.
