BIT u A RE S.

Died, January 2lst. at the residence of DR.. j.
White, in Farmville, Va, PATRICK HENRY
JACKSON, in the S1st year of his age.
He was born in Charlotte county, Va, near
Rough Creek church, in which his father was an
Elder. and of which he, in due time, became a
consistent member in full communion. He was
brother to the late Rev. M. w. Jackson.
Coming to Prince Edward county more than
fifty years ago, he purchased large tract of land
belonging to the noted Randolph Estate"
The site of his residence in Farmville was then
a forest. Thus he was one of the pioneer set
tiers of this town, and at the time of his death
was its Oldest citizen. He married Miss Mary
G., daughter of Nathaniel Wilson of Charlotte
county. The fruit of this union were eight chill
dren. five of whom died in infancy leaving only
three survivors, namely-N. H., Leila (now
the wife of DR.. James l.. White,) and VIM M.
Jackson. For some years Mr.. Jackson was an
Elder in "Old Cumberland church" but remov
ing his membership to Farmville church he
died in the communion of the latter-its Oldest
member. His last illness was short and almost
painless his death, sudden but peaceful. AL
ways steady and temperate in habits, he came
TO his grave in full age; like as a shock of
corn cometh in in his season." AS citizen he
was honored and respected by ALL AS a Chris
tan, he was quiet, but "steadfast in the faith :"
loving the courts of the Lord, from which his
venerable form was never missing except through
sickness or absence from home. The theme of
one of bis last conversations was, "A SINNER
sdUed by grace Just after the weekly prayer
meeting he fell on sleep" Only few mo-
ments before he had asked little girl Robbie
b. who came in to him on returning from
the church: Did you sing at the prayer meet
ing, Robbie?" Yes, sir she said, but l
didn't sing the doxology" "Then sing it for
me" he said The sweet childish voice filled
the room with, Praise God from whom all
blessings flow, and that was almost the last
sound he heard on earth. In few minutes
more he was singing with his own little ones in
heaven that song which none can sing but those
who are redeemed from the earth" So ended
his more than half century in the faith of
Jesus III. II. II.

to a rich brown deep black, as may be de-
sired. 1t softens and cleanses the scalp, giving
1T healthy action. 1t removes and cures dan
druff and humors. BY its use falling hair is
checked and new growth will be produced in
all cases where the follcles are not DESTROYED or
the glands decayed. Its effects are beautifully
shown on brashy, weak, or sickly hair, on which
few applications will produce the gloss and
freshness of youth. Harmless and sure in its
operation, it is incompatible as dressing, and
is especially valued for the soft lustre and rich
ness of tone it imparts. 1t contains neither oil
nor dye, and will not soil or color white cambric
yet it lasts long on the hair, and keeps it fresh
and vigorous.

JEFFFRSON,S NEMESIS.
He Appears Before Him in the Municipal
Court.

He ADDear6 before Hin IN the MunlCiYSk
Court
There were new and decidedly startling
developments yesterday in the case of
Thomas Jefferson, charged By Coroner
Davenport upon conclusion of the in
quest, Tuesday, upon the body of Louis
Langtin, with the killing of deceased.
Yesterday morning Jefferson was ar
raigned in the municipal court upon the
charge, and the case continued until
p. m.
At the above designated hour the pre-
liminary hearing was commenced before
Judge Burr. Judge Jas. OB'rien appeared
for the state. c. D. O'Brien, Esq, had
been secured as counsel for the accused,
but he being engaged in an important
case in the district court, John ID. OBrl-
en- was appointed in his stead.
The testimony upon which the prose-
cution depended to sustain the accusa-
ton, was that of Edward Henry and Al
bert Morris, who testified before the cor
oner's inquest Tuesday, and Joseph Sui
Ivan, the other lad or young man, with
those two in the hallway to the gambling
room at the time. Langtin re-
ceived his injuries as testi-
fed to by them at the inquest. Sulli-
van could not be reached by the coroner
at the inquest, and so the full import OF
what he could testify to, If found, was I'M
known up to the time he took the stand
yesterday afternoon. Henry and Nor
ris repeated their testimony given at the
inquest, without any material deviation,
though Counsel O'Brien succeeded in
mixing Morris little.
The sensation came when Sullivan took
the stand. He testified to the occurrences
of the evening up to the time when
Jefferson took Langtin by the
coat, in substance the same as
had Henry and Morris. Continuing, Sui
Ivan testified that he remained in the
hallway near the head of the stairs, and
saw Jefferson after wordy alteration
with Langtin, grab Langtin by the coat,
push him backward to near the head OF
the stairs, and then give him a push,
sending Langtin headlong down the
stairs.
This is the first positive testimony that
Jefferson either struck or pushed Lang
tin while near the head of the stairs.
Both Henry and Morris testified
before the coroner's jury to
seeing Jefferson seize Langtin by
the coat, but fearing row both started
to make themselves scarce. Morris, how
ever, swore that after going down the
stairs five or six steps he stopped and
looked back, and as he did so Langtin
was precipitated by him to the foot OF
the stairs Sullivan's evidence confirms
this statement and accounts for the con-
dition in which Langtin's skull was found
upon the post mortem.
Counsel O'Brien exercised all his inge-
nuity to make Sullivan contradict him.
self, he adhered rigidly to his statement,
but without success.
The new developments seemed to be
unexpected to the defense, and after a
short consultation continuation was
asked to Friday, but Judge O'Brien hav-
ing another engagement on that day, the
further hearing was finally set for this
afternoon at O'Clock, Jefferson standing
committed in the interium without bail.

WILLIAM L. SMELL.
An Old Settler of St. Paul Dies at Erie, F

An Old Settler of st. Paul Dies at Erie, Pa.
Old settlers, from 1857 up to and imme-
diately following the close of the war,
and members of the Eighth Minnesota
regiment in the late wars will remember
William l.. Smell. Mr.. Smell, shortly
after the war, removed to Erie, Pa,
where he died the morning of the l4th,
as we learn from copy of the Herald of
that city, sent to Judge Cardozo, an old
and warm friend of deceased. Mr.. Smell
bore an honorable part in the late war,
and was highly respected by all who
knew HIM we'll, all of whom will learn
with sincere regret the news of his death.
The particulars OF his illness and death.
as stated by the Erie paper, are as fol-
ows:
William L. Smell, one of Erie's best
known and most highly respected citi-
zens, expired this morning at his resi-
dence on West Seventh street. Though
dangerously i'll since Tuesday, Mr.. Snell's
death was very unexpected. Deceased
had been afflicted for some time with a
complication of liver and kidney troub-
les, but attended to his business as man.
ager of the Erie Mailing company, which
position he held for years, up till within
short time since. Mr.. Smell was a son
Daily globe. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1878-1884, 1881-10-20

of Lovette Smell, one of Erie's old resi-
dents. He leaves to mourn his death, his
aged mother, Mrs. G. G. Whitcomb, a
brother, D. F. Smell, and one sister, Mrs.
III. B. Hubbard; but nearest of all are
his three motherless daughters, Miss
Gertie and Nellie and little Annie, upon
whom the loss falls with plying effect,
for Mr. Smell was most loving and in
dulgent father Deceased had an honor
able record as an officer of the Eighth
Minnesota regiment during the recent
war. He was member of Erie Lodge
No. A, A. o. U. W., and Mystic Lodge
No. 80, Knights of Honor, from each of
which his family receive $4,000 benefici-
