BoEKHOFFs SENTENCE.-At the hour ap-
pointed for sentence to be pronounced against
Boellhoff for throwing vitriol upon his wife,
large crowd was present in the Courtroom.
Judge Clark had the prisoner brought before
| him, and when asked the usual question
whether he had anything to say why sentence
should not be pronounced upon him, re-
| piled that he did not desire to make any
! remarks. The Judge then referred to the helm
BUSINESS and iuhumanitY of the crime COM
mitted, and that he at first intended to make
the sentence of the Court the full extent of
| the law-tourteen years in the Penitentiary,
/ but inasmuch as his wife, against whom the
crime was committed, and his son and daugh-
| ter-iu-law, in reference to whom he also is
under Indictment for committing the same
| crime upon them, had made most earnest APP
peals TO him for leniency, he would make the
| sentence eight years confinement in the State
! Prison. The son, who is now about eighteen
years of age and badly SCARED and dishgured
| for life about the head and neck from the
! brutality of his father, was present in the
| Courtroom and showed deep sympathy, for
| getful Of the wrong that had been done him,
and sobbed aloud when sentence was an
nounced. From the fact that the prisoner is
now fifty-ei4ht years Of age and not of rugged
health, the term will probably be equivalent
to imprisonment for life. The other indct-
ments will therefore probably be dismissed.
