!a Hoy of Fifteen is Sent to Prison For
 Twelve Years For Killing B Child.
 The Paris Figaro reports that the Assize Court of Aude has recently been occupied in trying 8 lad of 15 for the murder of child years of age. The crime was committed on Got. 12, 1879. On the afternoon of that day the little Adrien Saucey, son of a railroad officer, living at QuiIlan, (Aude,) left his father house to go and play with some neigh bor's children, and he never returned Anx- ious at the non-appearance of the child, the parents caused search to be instituted and inquiries to be made in all directions. The search was continued all the evening, through the night, and all the following day. At last, on Monday, Oct 13, at night, widow named Bousquet discovered the little shoe of the child in an outhouse close to her vineyard. The outhouse was at once examined by the police. Near ths entrance, on the ground, were found large spots of blood, badly co yered up with layer of sulphur. The body of the murdered boy found in Q ditch close by, half hidden by vine branches. The corpes was naked except for the little socks, the face cov- cred with blood and disfgured by great gap- iug wounds the skull was broken, and the body had been horribly mutllsted. Two peasants gave evidence which led to the dis covery of the assassin. They had seen the child Adrien in company with an idiot broth CT, years old, on Sunday evening about O clock Another boy was talking to them. and this lad turned out to be Eugene Radoude, the of brakeman. Eugene at first strenuously denied having seen the two broths CTS Sancey, but eventually, after two women had positively s ated that they recognized him as the led they had seen with Adrien in his arms on the Sunday evening on path leading to the outhouse, he made full confession of the crime He stated that after walking @ short distance with the brothers he sent the elder one home, and, taking the younger onB In his arms, carried him into the hut. Here he threw the child violently on the ground, the head coming in contact with large stone. RAdoude then put his foot on the body of his younger companion, and with a hatchet gave him successively four terrible blows on the face and head. He then removed the clothes, and mutiated the body of the unfortunate little fellow in the most frightful manner. He next took spade from the hut and com menced to dig grave, but he did not make it very deep, being afraid of a surprise. He placed the dead child in it, covered it with vine branches, and walked quietly back to Quillsn Radoude had long premeditated this crime, the motive for which is utterly unac- countable. He was examined by numerous doctors to see if he could be insane, but they found him to be quite responsible for his act ions. Idle and vagabond, spending his days in robbing the surrounding farms, Radoude bore very bad name. He has been con demned to 12 years imprisonment in house of correction being saved by his youth from capital punishment or penal servitude.

Hand in Hand at the Golden Gates.


 touching incident occurred in the deaths of the aged people, MT. and Mrs. Dickson, last week. For convenience in attendance during their illness they were placed in sepa- rate bedrooms The heads of the beds were placed against thin partition, which having an open door permitted the two old people to converse though not able to see each other. The night before the husband died, his wife heard him grooming and was very anxious to be with him, but was unable to arise. Soon she was informed that he was dying, and in order to be near him the beds were moved so as to bring them parallel with the partition, the heads opposite the door. This done the fond wife reached out her hand, grasped her husband by the hand and held it during his last moments. Thus death found them, as fifty one years before the marriage ceremony left them, joined hand in hand. It was simple and affectionate token of the love of long life and the day following the wife, too, folded her arms in the sleep of death.

a New Gatline Gun.

According to the London papers, all the most terrible and deadly weapons of war hith- erto introduced appear to have been thrown into the shade by an improved Gatling gun which was exhibited recently by Dr. R. J. Gatiing to a number of experts, at the offices of Sir William Armstrong & Go. This weapon is capable of firing 1000 shots per minute, and killing man or horse at mile range. The gun has compact appearance, can be taken to pieces and easily carried about can be ap- piled to military or naval use, and the mechan ism of it is simplicity itself. The revolving barrel has 10 compartments, into which, as they whirl round. metal cartridges drop from tall oblong case fixed over the center of the barrel. At each turn of the handle 10 shots are fired, and their dispersion is accomplished by sliding apparatus. The size of shot in different calibre guns of this class ranges from musket-balls to alf-pounders. By the use of this implement, three men can do the work of 300 rifemen. A quarter of million dollars are said to have been spent on experiments necessary to perfect the gun, which is now regarded by military experts as complete success.

 on Wednesday in Iowa, Kentucky and Missou- ri. and the Massachusetts convention will be held on Thursday. Much interest is felt in the result of the Massachusetts convention, and things are lively in that State. There will be mixed delegation, but if the Ed

EDITORIAL NOTES.

The report is floating about the country that MT. White, the American minister at Berlin, is SO i'll that he is about to give up his position and return to the United States It is pleasing to learn that there is no truth in the story. On the contrary, letters from in so good health for many years as he is at present. Possibly no public station would keep him for great length of time from his duties at the head of Cornell University; but So far from returning to them in broken health, he bids fair to return strengthened for more and better work than he has been able to do for some time past.

The great IIsnlan.Courtney race
came off on the Potomac here yester.
day, and was witnessed by over one
hundred thousand people. In reality
it was no race. Hanlan had things
all his own way. In fact, Courtney
did not pull over the whole course,
but turned around when half way
down, pulled leisurely back to his
boat house. He feigned sickness as
the cause Of his ignominiOus defeat,
but the excuse is not received with
favor, and has added greatly to his
unenviable reputation of unreliable
ity. Courtney was in plain words,
frightened the confidence and pluck
of Hanlan nnnerved him, and it is
said that he was so nervous that he
did not sleep a wink the night before
the race. Thousands Of dollars
changed hands, and those who bet on
Courtney are loud in their denuncia-
ton of him. The delegation from
Union Springs, N. Y, who backed
Courtney, go home "broke," while the
Hanlan Toronto delegation go home
"hush." We may have another race
here next week between Hanlan and

SECRETARY SoHURz declares himself
more intensely anti-Graut now than
he was in 1872. He adds that within
forty-eight hours after the nomination
of General Grant he (Schurz) will
hand in his resignation as Secretary of
the Interior, and take the field in favor
of an an anti-Third Term Republican
ticket. If Secretary Sohurz's inAu
ence has the same effect it did in '72
his efforts in favor of an anti.third

Like South America we have wet

versa, the same depth with dust, which
is mud with the water squeezed out.

month, and from present appearances
won't have any for another month.
Besides being dry and dusty it is hot

ming, Which was as follows: One Of
our fire companies took a trip down
the Cumberland Valley to the town Of
Lebanon, which is but a few miles
distant from here, and on their return
in the evening, were met at the depot
by our department, and paraded
through the town accompanied by
several bands of music, and their path
illuminated with torches and the glare
of fireworks. Did you ever hear of
anything more absurd ? You might
have thought from the reception given
them that they had been abroad for a
year, instead of which they had only
beer away about twelve hours and
some % miles distant Ce monde est
plein de tOus is an old French saying
and seems to me to be true one.
Gardners are still engaged in
beautifying the "hill." The fountains
are being surrounded with flowers, the
shrubs and grass being trimmed and
roses set out in profusion.
Milton, the town above here that
was burnt the other day is rising from
its ashes. Philadelphia has already
sent over $4,000 in cash besides
boxes of clothing and groceries. Sen.
'ator Cameron had bill passed in
Congress on Wednesday appropriating
$4,000 for the purpose of erecting
public building, which will assist the
residents considerably in their present
distress. AS they are a very energetic
people and are receiving considerable
| assistance | am sure their embarrass-
ment will only be temporary, and
when they recover from it they will be
better off than before.
The Grant men are jubilant over
the capturing of Illinois, and now feel
assured of his nomination. They may
nominate him but they cannot make
the people vote for him, consequently
he can't be elected. But Messrs.
Cameron, Conkling and Logan want
to be Cabinet officers, therefore Grant
must be nominated and the party must
run the risk of defeat because they are
willing to run that risk to make their
point. The people don't want Grant
its Ouly those seekers after place that
are crying for him. Blaine is the
popular cry, but l don believe he can
be elected, therefore they had better
take Edmunds, as Washburne has
Withdrawn in favor of Grant. II
Washburne is willing to see our ticket
defeated he should not now, in the
event of Grants withdrawal. be

not party for personal aggrandize
