The English Murder Trial.

Promising to print the proceedings
in the trial of Harry English for the
murder of Constable Warmth, April
II, 1880, we have endeavored to do so.
But find, on making copy from the
notes taken in court, that we have not
the room in one issue to publish the
full proceedings. Therefore, we have
concluded to give the evidence in full
up to the time George Kreig was eX.
anined on Thursday afternoon. Then
commencing with Kreig's testimony
in our next issue give the proceedings
in full to the time of charging the jury
Saturday evening. We also give in
this issue the charge of Judge Wet
more to the jury. In fact, then, we
give the beginning and conclusion of
the trial, leaving out good share OF
the evidence taken, which will be
given in our next issue as we state
above.

The following item we take from
the Lock Haven JOurnal of 2Sth inst
Mr.. Weaver is brother-in-law of l..
\. Brendell, Of this place:
Last evening, about five o'clock,
Mr.. John Weaver, an employee OF
Gossler & COS planning mill, met with
an accident whereby lie lost the better
part of his lett hand. Mr.. Weaver
reached into or under the moulder to
remove some shavinys which had ac-
cumulated. ana the knives chopped off
much of the hand referred to. After
amputation, the thumb and index
fingers and the left side OF the hand
only remained. Some years ago Mr.
Weaver lost several fingers of the right
hand, and now he is almost pernla-
ncntly crippled.
