OUR COUNTY COURT.

A DEARTH OF BUsINEss-HARLEY G.
BROWN AND GEO. DRAPER, COL, SEN
TENcED-How THEY RECEIVED THE
COURTS VERDICT.
Special to the Gazette.
NEW CASTLE, Dec. 9-The proceed
ings of Court subsequent to those pub
lished III our late edition of yesterday are
as follows
After the application of Mr., Gray for
a postpo aement of the Dodson case, there
was nothing done.
After the Court had re-assembled in
the afternoon The two persons convicted
OF capital crimes-Harley q. Brown and
Geo, Draper-were brought out and
placed in the dock.
Geo. Draper, for the murder of John
Wilson, at Middletown, in September
last, was the first sentenced. The Court,
in comforting the penalty, said: "You
have been indlc cted for murder in the first
degree, but the jury thought proper to
convict Sou of murder in the second de-
gree, and they not only acted concien-
tiously but mercifully towards you; and
all that now remains for Le to do Is to
pronounce the sentence, which is that
yoa pay the costs ofprosecution, that you
forfeit fine OF 81 600, that on Saturday,
the 2lst of December, between the hours
of 10 a. III. and = p. IN, stand one hour in
the pillory, aad be whipped with sixty
lashes, and be imprisoned for the term of
your natural life; and you are now com
mitted 10 the custody of the Sheriff until
the penalty be carried into ell, CT
The prisoner took the sentence without
any emotion and no tell-tale expression
stood upon his counteuance other than
manifest desire TO have the thing over
with.
Harley G. Brown was next called. He
got upou his feet briskly. The change in
his countenance was marked. He ap
peared calm aud collected, and received
the decision of the Court with respectful
attention.
The Court. in addressing him said
"You were indicted at the present tern
of this Court by the Grand Jury tor the
murder of George Babes, That indict
ment arraigned you with being guilty il
the first degree, in that you killed hin
with expressed malice aforethought, upoI
consideration of the evidence the jury
in your case thought it proper to bring
in verdict of manslaughier In view o
all circumstances we shall impose upoI
you the utmost penalty, as in your cas'
there seems to be no excuse or pahatiol
whatever. The jury believed your stat e
ment, and they were governed no doub
by that, and in mercy to you found Sol
guilty of manslaughter only; and in view
OF the fact that the explanation you mad
OF your offence disclose d your own cOu
duct, we feel constrained to impose th
utmost penalty of tue law upon you
which is that you shall pay the cos {
prosecution and forfeit and pay to tn
State fine of 81 700, and be imprisonr
for FIVE years, commencing to-day an
ending with the oth day of Decembei
1885
The prisoners Were taken back an
placed in confinement, and at o'cloc
Cout adjourned.
