The Phoebe Record says the MeLane
farce terminated in Hamilton ON Thurs
day, the jury standing seven for conviction
and five for acquittal. When Gus. Wilson
left Hamilton the jury stood eight for con-
viction and four for acquittal, but we learn
that the case terminated as first men
toned. The law-abiding citizens Of Ham
ilton are greatly Disguised at the way the
trial has ended. We are informed that
one OF the McLane brothers remarked that
he would bring George back with him
when he returned, and he came very near
making his word good. When Bishop was
pleading before the jury, old McLane and
his wife were bitterly sobbing aloud, and
the floor of the courtroom was flooded.
When Bishop concluded his talking he was
standing knee-deep in water. One of the
jurymen, a German, was heard to sniffle
several times. 1t would have been the
proper thing for the Judge to have ordered
an injection OF sauer-kraut for this
tender-hearted juryman. 1t might have
braced him up to do his duty. If
McLane had been convicted the chances
are that he would have been granted a new
trial. The friends of the assassin, and all
those who uphold and approve Of murder,
robbery and assassination, worked hard for
the reelection Of Judge Beatty. This class
Of people always know who their friends
are.

Cut or Ina IA Prime of Life and I'm
the Midst Of ASA Honorable Ca

reer.
ISan Francisco Examiner.1
The kilograms from Nevada bring the
sorrowful news of the death of A. M. Hill
house, of Eureka, one of the most promi.
nen lawyers and citizens Of Eastern Ne
vada. The bereavements Of death are al.
ways g%rievously sad and hard to bear, even
when those who have reached the full.
ness Of years are stricken down, but are
especially sorrowful when an honorable
and useful citizen is called hence in the
prime Of life. In the present instance the
latter is markedly the case. Mr.. Hillhouse
was in the full vigor of manhood, pursu-
ing a career in which he was reaping dis
tinction and comforting benefits on those
in the community. He had lived in East
ern Nevada for over sixteen years. Dur
ing that time he had justly earned the rep
utation OF being one Of the most accom-
plished and able lawyers in Nevada. He
reached that State-then a Territory-in
1864, and settled at Austin, unknown and
without a friend. His abilities, however,
were soon made manifest, and by industry
and sedulous attention to the interest Of
every client, he quickly secured a lucrative
practice. At that time the bar at Austin
numbered many men Of much ability and
learning. The mines were rich, and there
was much litigation concerning titles. As
a natural consequence many lawyers set
tied in Austin. Among them were Judge
CARRIER, d. r.. Ashley, II. 1. Thornton,
Judge Hupp, B. p. Ranken, Thos. Wren
and others, forming an array in which to
secure a place required talent and learning.
These Mr.. Hillhouse possessed, and their
exercise brought the reward he sought
the respect and confidence of his fellow
citizens and a lucrative practice. In 1869
Mr.. Hillhouse moved to White Pine, and
afterwards to Eureka. In politics he was
an answering Democrat, and in the days
when the malicious prescription practiced
by the Republican party in Nevada, was at
its height, Mr.. Hillhouse was alike I'M
moved by its hostility as ne was undeceived
by its cajoleries. He was q Democrat from
conviction, because he believed the prin-
ciples OF that party were right and those
who opposed them were wrong. His I'M
expected and lamentable death will cause Q
blank in the ranks which will not easily
be filed. He was instant and earnest and
unselfish in his services, and his advice
and assistance could always be obtained
and were invariably Of the utmost value.
Mr.. Hillhouse vas married, and leaves q
widow and three small children. Their
sorrow must be so great that nothing can
be said to alleviate it. ALI that can be
done is in respectful silence to allow time
to heal rounds which are too sacred to be
discussed. Mr.. Hillhouse was generous
and charitable in the extreme, and many a
sad and suffering heart and mind has been
relieved by his unostentatious but generous
assistance. Kind and genial in his man
ners, he made all who knew him his
friends. In his loss the country will
mourn one Of its best citizens, his family
and friends a kind and tender husband
and parent and a faithful friend. He was
an honest man, the noblest work of God.

The death Of A. M. Hillhouse, Of Eure-
ka, Nevada, will cause profound sorrow in
the Silver State. He was an eminent law
yer, and for several years has been the
f~avorite Of the Nevada Democracy for
United States Senator. Beyond that he
was a big-brained, great-hearted man, and
all that knew him called him friend. 1t
seems that he was first attacked by an alb
scess, which was succeeded by e~rysipelas,
causing blood-poisoning and death. Never
was there a grave in Nevada around which
gathered more sincere mourners than will
wave farewells to Judge Hillhouse. He
was a true friend and true man he
walked the earth uprightly, and his life
long bearing was that Of one who, while
believing in his own manhood, believed
also in his neighbors and while life was a
delight to him, to be perfectly happy him.
self he wanted all about him to be happy.
May he sleep in peace.

Death by Decapitati0n.

1 The Paris Figdro recently sent spe- cial reporter to witness the execution at Beauvais of an atrociouS murderer i named Prunier. The moment that the 1 guillotine had done it's work the body
 and head were placed in basket and
 were taken to the cemetery, where Drs.
 Evrard, Le Sage, Chevallier, Lesguil- i lion, Rochu and Decaisne were present.
 M. Evrard had asked for and obtained
 the body of the felon for experiments.
 which," says the reporter, i've fol-
 lowed with deep interest, for, besides l their purely scientific character, they reIaUeu uO question often uiscussed-
 does life survive decapitationp Five
 minutes had elapsed since the moment
 when the head was separated from the trunk, and it was placed on stone in 1 the open air in front of the little chapel i of the cemetery. Comparatively little i blood had flowed, and some drops were
 running from the carotid artery. AL though the neck was very short the cut 1 ting had b. en very clean. Pinched, i stuck with nettles, submitted to the
 most painful experiments, the head
 never moved. the face remained unal-
 tered, not muscle quivered. The left ear
 was completely calcined in the flames of
 candle without obtaining the smallest
 appearance of sensibility. They then divided the skin of the head into four
 parts, and, using the hammer, scalpel
 and the saw, they took away the upper 1 portion of the skull and withdrew the
 brain. This occupied ten minutes. Im-
 mediately on being submitted to an electric battery the remains of the head at once displayed nervous contractions-
 the teeth chattered, the mouth shut, the eye and the cheek made those grimaces which are observed in sleeping people
 when tiekled with feather. With the body the same result was obtained. It
 was abso utely without feeling. It was
 opened, the heart, lungs and intestines
 were removed, and then, on being placed
 in contact with the electric battery, the
 arms and legs instantly moved. At this
 moment Dr. Evrard asked me what o'clock it was, and it appeared that forty minutes had elapsed from the time of the execution. Lastly came the con- cluding experiment. Under the action of the battery shred of hanging flesh, displaced by the operations, stood on ! end, oscillated and quickly placed itself | back on the spot from which it had been ] cut" The conclusion of the doctors is that the movements observed in the | bodies of persons guillotined on being | subjected to the action of electricity are absolutely mechanical, and display neither any remainder of life nor of sen- Isation.. The experiment will be the sub lject of memoir, which will shortly be presented to the Academy of Medicine by M. Evrard, and in which he will | demonstrate that death by decapitation is instantaneous.
