lows:
At twelve o'clock on Wednesday night,
October Is, 1876 got out of bed, and went

yond Mre. Pringle's, and Mr.. Ben fell at my
gate; then l screamed and told my hus-
band that Mr.. Ben had been shot; then
he Jumped up and went out, and when
he got out Mr.. Ben was taken in.
went out to get pitcher of water. Mrs.
Pringle was standing inside of her
gate. and heard her say that
she weuld not stop the fuss until he was
put down, and now that he was put down
she was satisfied. l saw the young man
when he fred at Mr. Ben. l do not know
him, l only took glimpse of HIM when he
fired; he was standing beyond my gate.
Mrs. Pringle and Mr.. Ben have had some
fuss before; they had been quarreling a
whole week. Mr.. Ben was very intimate in
the house, but l don't know the cause OF
the fuss. l heard no fuss between Mr.. Ben
and the young man who shot him.
The above evidence was corroborated hy
Mr.. H. j. Lockman, the husband OF the
witness, and several others, and the son OF
the deceased
The jury, after hearing all the evidence
returned verdict, declaring that the de-
ceased came to his death from pistol shot
wound at the hands of one Westerlegan,
now at large; and also charging Mrs. Prin-
gle with being accessory before and after
the fact, and George Kellar with being &C
cessory after the fact to the death Of said
Benjamin Wadsworth.

AN UNFORTUNATE SPEECH.-At recent
fire on British vessel our fire department,
through Chief O'Connor, informed the cap
tain that they could easily extipguish the
flames. The captain thought so too, and
ordered the men on the harbor protection
boat to cease their operations. The man
who held the tugs pipe was ordered of,
which brought from him very vile re-
sponse-an answer that will doubtless keep
the CAPTAIN from visiting this port again.

and his body bruised, but Smith did not
fare as well. The engines wheels passed

A Nut to Crack,

The Richmond Dispatch lays down
this nut for the Democracy to crack.
As the Dispatch Is for "winning," and
don't care who 1t WINS with, it makes
the problem of carrying Democratic
candidate through a rather knotty one
" First, no Western man can possibly
be elected The currency question
settles that point. Secondly, no South
ern man can possibly be elected. The
war question settles this point. Bay
ard, the sympathizer the Soufh-as true
TO us as Fus. Les-;he opponent of the
Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth
Amendments enemy of all the re-
construction measures-Bayard, we say,
,couid stand no more chance of being
elected than Gen. Wade Hampton
Thirdly, no other New Yorker than
Tilden can be elected. Judge Church
must be counted out o. the fight. The
Utica Convention was for Tilden. 1t
represented the honest part of the De-
mocracy of New York. 1t we're folly
to support that they could be brought
up TO the support of Church, or any
candidate of the Canal Ring or Tam
many Hall. FOurthly, We must have
New York. Without her vote we are
inevitably defeated" As Tlloen is
already shelved because New York is
going against him, where is the success
full man to come from ?

Has There Ever Been Greater
Meanness or Greater Stupidity?

The Confederate Committee in Con-
gress, that have been dong their ut
most to destroy Blaine, received de-
spatch from London from a man named
Caldwell, entirely lifting a charge
made against Blaine in regard to rail-
road matters 1t had been said that
Caldwell knew all about the trouble
and all that was needed to settle the
scandal on Blaine. All yes. if Cald-
we'll can only be found, he is the man.
1t happened that Caldwell is in London,
snj saw statement relative to what
he knew of the matter, in sn English
paper. At once he sent despatch to
the Confederate Committee, that he
had never had any transaction with Mr..
Blaine as it was charged on Them, and
stated further that he would go into a
sworn testimony to that effect, and ha se
it sent to Congress il the Committee 60
desired it. If the Committee had been
inspired to do what was right between
man and man. and Congress, and the
people of the country, they would have
given publicity to the despatch. But
they we're as far from The desire to do
justice to Mr.. Blains as the Devil is

from the desire to become religious or
virtuous, and 60, instead of announcing
the despatch to the public, or telling
Mr. Blaine, they put it h . pocket aud
said not : word conceFning it. After

days. Mr.. Blaine heard of the sup
pressed despatch, and in his place IN
ongress, asked the Committee who
had concealed it, concerning the matter
A man named Knott, from Kentucky,
made answer that despatch had been
received from London, and when MIR.
Blaine charged the unmsnly work on
the committee, Knott behaved himself
like rebel bully, talked about personal
responsibility, and other rebel pet
ways of getting out of mean work.
But Blaine held him to the question,
and brought cut of the man a clear
confession of the nature of the de
spatch, aud that it entirely lifted all
charges of Mr.. Blaine. Knott, to ex-
tricate himself from his contemplate
plight, said that he suspected the de-
spatch to be bogus one, aud that is
why he did not reveal its contents. 1t
does seem that when men GO into crook
ed ways, they are blinded. Knott's
case is striking illustration, for when
he excused himself for not reading the
despatch. be proclaimed how blind and
stupid he is, for be tells the country
that he put the despatch into his pocket,
and did not know enough to despatch
back to the Office whence it came, to
make inquiry about its genuineness.

A Romance Of the Rebellion.

One Of the romances growing out of
the war has just been divulged at WASH
ington. 1t is striking example of the
changes the war has wrought as well as
of the permanency of some of the
passions of the Southern people. AT
the last Presidential election Bruce p
Thomas, young man of "good family
it would have been respectable in
this Misunderstanding at Selma, Ala
bama, voted the Republican ticket. He
had served with credit in the Confed-
crate army and bore good character,
but he had committed the unrardon-
able sin. His step-father, a man of
means, turned him out of doors; his
former associates broke their friendship,
he was denied employment, and every
where he went the finger of scorn and
derision was pointed at him. 1t is
doubtful what his fate would have been
at this juncture, but for the interposi-
ton of a good Samaritan. Jerry Har-
Alison, negro, who had formerly been
a slave of Thomas father, but who Is
now a member of Congress, pitied his
condition and procured him employ
ment as clerk in the Treasury De-
partment at Washington. A few weeks
ago, the young man fell i'll, and was
nursed by Haralson, who, finding him
beyond human aid, telegraphed the
facts to his "good family" and fir ends
in Alabama. No response was received,
and few days ago Thomas died; again
his relatives we're telegraphed to come
for his body. and again there was no
response. He was buried far from his
native State, and his only mourners
we're black Jerry HARRISON and secret
society of which be was a member

A son Poisons Ms Parents.

Last Wednesday a week, a young
man named Allen Laros, who was at
the time . school teacher and student
at law, walked four miles from his
fathers house to Easton, this State, aud
bought Al ounces Of Arsenic. Then
he hastened home, chatted pleasantly
with his father and mother, and when
their attention was distracted from his
movements be threw the death dealing
powder into the coffee which the family
were to drink for supper. Whom sup
per was ready ne went to the table and
watched the effect of his dia bolical act,
with feelings akin to delight, and saw
them fall from the table, and is said to
have laughed at his mothers agony and
sobs. The excitement created by this
terrible crime, which resulted in the
death of the father, mother, and an old
friend of the family, named Moses, con :
vulsed the entire community anu led to
an investigation BY the Coroner.
THE VERDICT.
That Martin Laros came TO his death
from the effects of arsenical poison, ad-
ministered in coffee on Wednesday even
ing, May 81, 1876, and they believe
that the same was administered by AL
len z. Laros.
THE MURDERER's CONFESSION
While the officers were searching the
premises for evidence of the prisoners
guilt, Allen rose IN his bed aud looked
calmly about the room. He smiled
when he noticed his brothers and sisters
weeping by is bedside, but Immediate
ly afterward shouted out, hoarsely, " l
did it did it !" The officers were
sent for and came into the room at once.
Every one, save Mr. Saudi, was dis
missed, aud the door being locked the
latter approached the bedside and con-
manded Allen 20 speak the truth. For
a few moments the prisoner said moth
ing. He buried his face in his hands
ard made strenuous effort to weep.

upon his hand, and, looking the officers
steadily in their faces, repeated his first
ejaculation-s.I did it." Where did
