a Beauttful Newark Belle.

. Beauttful Newark Belle.
One of the most dastardly crimes which
has ever been committed in the city OF New
ark has just been brought to light. A young
man of twenty two and his female cousin OF
seventeen went some evenings ago to the
Park Theatre. The young man had oeen
deeply in love with this lady, and though
she had never returned his love she allowed
him to accompany her to places OF amuse-
ment, and he was frequently her compan-
ion in society. -.
After the performance they entered the
coach to drive to the Jersey ferry, and the
Young lady's escort took from his pocket a
pint bottle of champagne, and complaining
of the chilly night offered her some OF IT,
Being entirely unaccustomed to drinking
she refused, when he drank, or appeared to,
and restored the bottle to mis- pocket. Ine
offer being repeated in few Moments anu
the night being really cold, she took
couple of swallows, and her companion also
affected to do SO. When she awokc it was
daylight, and she found herself lying un-
dressed in bed, and her cousin sitting by the
bedside, bathing her head with cold WATER
and realized that she had been outraged
She screamed for assistance, and he plead
with her to allow him time to marry her +;
but she redoubled her screams, and he lied
from the room, saying he would bring car
riape and take her home. She dressed as
quickly as possible, and no assistance hav-
ing arrived, made her escape from the house
and reached home in the afternoon. In the
haste and terror Of flight the girl did moi
notice the exact number of the houses, but
she stated that 1t was on Fourteenth stree
near Sixth Avenue.
The principal actor in this villainy hs'
since written from Hartford, Conn, re-
questing that the matter be kept from tn
public, and asking that he may be alloWe'
to return to Newark and marry her.

and had not yet made formal debut !

The Murder Of Chinamen near Chico
"A Horrible Tale of COld-BlOoded
Butchery
The Sacramento daily "Record-U Union,"
of March IS, prints despatch from Chico,
which says:
This morning your correspondent visited
the scene of the terrible butchery which was
reported to have taken place at the Leman
ranch, about mile and half from town,
last evening, at half past eight o'clock.
The location Of the scene Of this most terri
rjbe and brutal butchery is about mile up
the IIuubolt road, on the left side, ard
about 800 yards from the residence Of John
H. Williams. 1t is reached by panel gate
in the fence, next the road, and is only dis
TAFT from said road about $50 yards, across
field Of wheat belonging to Mr.. Leman'
Six Chinese were employed in grubbing and
clearing piece of land adjoining this field
by contract, and were congratulating them
selves that two or three days more would
finish their contract and they would get
their pay.
Mr.. Leman Informs me that they were
diligent, good working Cinnamon, and had
made good job of the work they had on
hand. There had been NO quarreling among
them, the utmost harmony prevailing, and
no one entertained any idea that enemies
were after them. They had built small
cabin for temporary use, of planks, and IN
that they lived. The Chisamen were all in
the cabin in the evening, some lying down.
while others were sitting around. A lighted
candle was upon a small table, and 1t is
thought that this aided the bloody murder
ers in their hellish work OF assassination
On my arrival on the ground went uptt
the cabin aud the CHASTITY sight which pre-
sented itself was most appalling.
On the ground at the entrance there lay
stalwart Chinaman on his face, with bul
let wound in his head, and blood and brain
formed pool around him. The secon'
lay about foot from him, nearly in tn
same condition, while third lay PARTIAL
overthe second, also wounded in the head
The fourth was lying in an opposite direc
tion to the other three, with his face partia
ly upon the mating or bed, with a terrib
wound in the face, which showed that b
murderers had been close 10 him. He

10 which the Colonel says the charge that Gen.

around the rear and right of Hooker into Penn
sylvania, and thu, allowing the Federal army
to be interposed between him aud General
Lee, had taken away the eyes Of the army,
and lett the Confederate general in an enemy 8
country like blind giant cropping in the dark,
is unjust; that Stuart's expedition was under
taken with the approval Of the commanding
general; that he left behind him force Of cav
airy amply sufficient to observe and report the
movements of the Uoion army to General Lee,
as we'll as to check its Reconnaissance and guard
the Confederate column against auy surprise;
that Stuarts movement was highly successful
one, considered either as an independent raid of
q detachment of cavalry on the communications
of the Federal army, or in its relations to the
movements of the Confederate army; and that
the success which attended the Confederate
arms on the first days fighting was largely due
to the enterprise of Stuart.
