Murder Will Out,

The details of a mysterious murder
committed in Spot Hill, one of the SUBJ
urbs of this city, in the fall of 1876,
have just been brought to light. The
victim was young German named
John Lorson, whose relatives have been
making diligent but fruitless search for
him ever since his disappearance. To-
day reputable woman named Rhoda
Hennion, who, with her husband, occu-
pied portion of the house in which
Lorson lived, made affidavit before
Mayor Powderly to some startling facts
which show that Lorson was the victim
of foul play. She states that ON the
night in question she saw two men
named John Sweeny and Joseph Malta
knock Lorson down and strike him
while on the ground, at the same time
telling him to stay indoors or they
would put an end to him. Lorson stag
gered into his house and lay groaning
there at midnight. He was single and
lived alone. Mrs Hennion, attracted
by his means, called her husbands at
tention to it, but he was afraid to inter
fere, and she went to ask him how he
was. He could make no answer, and
so she returned home. Two hours later
SHe was dTOuSeu lTOlu Slebl) Dy bllO nOlSe
of two men in Lorson's house. She
saw them go away in the dark, The
next morning Lorsen was missing. At
eleven clock the night following she
and her husband saw these two men
digging in heap of coal-dust short
distance away, but they were afrai
to go out of doors. They con-
cluded, however, that it was
Lorson's murderers who were burying
his body. A week later an unbearable
stencil arose from this place and this
confirmed their suspicious. Mrs. Hen
MONS husband has since died, but she
says he was always confident that Lor-
son had been killed. The walls of the
murdered mans room were bespat-
tered with blood on the morning fol-
lowing the deed. Chief of Police De-
lacey and several citizens visited the
house to-day and found the blood marks
as indicated. Mrs. Hennion is corrob-
Grated by numerous witnesses. Malta,
one of the men implicated, is now in
the Penitentiary for killing man
named Welsh, and the authorities are
on the track of Sweeny, who is sup
posed to have gone South.-Sorant0n

Missouri.

The breadth of land from the Red
River country of the far North, stretch
ing to the Gulf of Mexico, including
Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa,
Missouri, Kansas and Texas, is one of
the most wonderful agricultural spec
tacles of the globe 1t is one of the
few facts that are unthinkablel In this
ocean of land, and at nearly its center.
stands the imperial State of Missouri.
Even a Kansas man admits that in nat
ural qualifications it leads all the rest,
and is the crown and glory of the
Union! 1t has bOundless treasures of
coal, iron, lead and other minerals;
lands richer there cannot be, nor finer
streams; its forests are more equally
distributed over all the State than in
any other; its climate, wholesome and
delightful, blends the temperature of
the Northern lakes and of the great
Southern gulf. And yet this imperial
State sees to-day, streaming through
her borders, countless thousands of en-
igrants refusing her cheap lands and
pouring into Kansas and territory be-
yond. More than 1000 emigrants %
day for weeks have been passing
through the State of Missouri to find
settlement among the institutions which
were formed by the genius of libertyl No
better argument could be framed against
slavery than this. 1t is dead in Missouri.
But its stencil is not departed. A whole
generation must pass away before the
habits of thought and the ways of life,
which slavery breeds, can be purged
away. But the beautiful and glorious
State of Missouri is yet to stand in that
place which God and nature prepared
for her, and which slavery so long with
held. Only liberty, intelligence and
morality can found broad common
wealths and maintain health in every
part. Though late, yet not too late,
Missouri is providing an education for
her whole people. The common-school
system is founded substantially on that
of Ohio. Three normal schools within
the State are prosperous. The st.
Louis Republican states that the ex-
penditure for common schools for 1873
will be fraction less than $4,000, 900
(S2, ,738, ,000). There is a residue of re-
spectacle gentlemen of wealth, and of
the old style, who will never move on
till death helps them, and large de-
pOsit of rude and reckless citizens after
the border-rufiian style, which like over
fat soil are unwholesome, but aerated
by the pillow grow healthier every year.
Churches, schools, emigration and COM
mercial enterprise are doing their work.
Death and education will ere long exalt
Missouri to power and renown second
to none of her glorious compeers!-
