THE month of August, 1881, will re-
main ever in painful memory to the fam.
lily of Mr.. John E. klee, who resides
two miles west of Bellaire. Mr.. Klee is
Il young man but 90 years of age. Some
years ago he came to Bellaire and mar
ried Miss Pheoe Ellen Long and since
that time they have lived on a farm close
to Mr.. Theobald Klee, father of John.
Six children were born 10 them, and all
seemed well till the dread disease of
diphtheria made its appearance in tie
family. On the third day of August
death claimed its first victim in the per-
son of their oldest child. Clara, who had
but turned her eighth year; soon follow
ed Margaret Jane, daughter past 5
years of age: then came Martha Ann, in
the third year of her ag,'; and then Ell
mer, a son Of Tut two ears of age; a. d
this morning, Harry, d 10Y between d
and 7 years of age, died OF the same
dread disease, and the baby of only 7
months is also sick. Mr.. Klee was in
the city to-day, making arrangements to
bury his fifth child. He has only recov
cred from an attack of the sore throat
and the fever, and is barely able to go
about. He seems to be almost without
hope, and his appearance indicates that
the terrible affliction that has been heap
ed upon his family in so short time,
has racked the whole man. and left but
the form, with very little physical or
mental life.- Bellaire Daily Indepen-
dent, 18th.

of deliberate and premeditated malice as &p-
piled to the killing, have much meaning. Pur-
posely implies an act of the william intention,
design to do the act-it presupposes the free
agency of the actor. Deliberation and premed-
itation require actions of the mind; they are op-
erstions of the intellectual faculties, and re-
quire an exercisce Of reason, reflection, judg-
ment and decision. The crime of murder in the
first degree can only be perpetrated by free
agent, capable of acting or abstaining from act
ing-must have the power Of self-control, free
dom of will to avoid wrong. Then you will in
quire, and from the testimony-and il must
be such testimony as satisfies your minds be-
yond reasonable doubt-whether the accused,
in the condition he was in, and with the sur
rounding circumstances at the time, committed
the act purposely and of ofdeliberate and premed-
itated malice; had the power of self-cOntrol; did
he know the consequences of his act, and did
he know it was an offense against the laws Of
God and man; if you find all these from the
testimony that satisfies you beyond reasona-
bic doubt, then the accused would be guilty as
he stands indicted; but if you have a reasonable
doubt as to any one of any fact necessary to
constitute the crime of murder in the first de-
gree, you will then proceed to find from the tes-
timony that satisfies your minds beyond rea-
sonable doubt whether or not the accused is
guilty of murder in the second degree.
The statute provides that whoever purpose.
ly and maliciously, except as provided in the
section defining murder in the first degree,
kills another is guilty of murder in the sec,
ond degree; it must have been done purpose
ly, thai is, with an intention to kill, and il
must have been done maliciously.
H,you find that the act was done purposely
without haf off INT
the crime of manslaughter. If the act was
done in the heat of sudden quarrel or unin-
tentionally, where the slayer was in the com
mission of some unlawful act, that would be
mauslaughter.
1t is the duty of the jury to agree upon g
verdict If they can do so without doing vio>
lence to their conscience. 1t is not required
that any juror should do violence 10 his con-
science in order to agree.
Mr.. St. Clair Kelly, of counsel for the &C
cused, excepted to the proceedings of the
court in re>charging the jury.
Tuesday morning court convened at
O'Clock, and the Sheriff wns directed to bring
the jury from their room. The court inquired
of the jury, "Have you agreed upon a YER
dict, gentlemen" The Foreman said they
had not, and upon further inquiry of the
court il there was any prospect of agreeing if
further time is given, negative answer was
given. when Judge Okey said, ''Much ss we
regret the necessity of doing it, we will have
to discharge the jury. We had hoped that
you would agree upon a verdict-you are dis
charged from further service. The Clerk
will certify your attendance.

WALTON BROWN, a prominent Dem
ocrat of Mansfield. writes letter to the
Ohio Liberal, a Democratic paper, in
which he repudiates the nominatian OF
Bookwalter, saying that since the PratO-
rian guards sold the magistracy OF
Rome to the highest bidder, there has
been no public act with which to COM
pare the performance of the late Demo
cratic Convention at Columbus. ''The
Greeley fasco," he says, "had the merit
at the time of being "A necessity, and was
at least free from anything venal. The
Tom Ewing business was accomplished
without the taint of bargain and sale;"
but how can the nomination of mil
liOnaire yearling Democrat be account
ed for on any rational grounds save
those of financial nature" Mr.. Brown
further says that he has been Demo
crat of the "straitest sect" that he has
voted against Grant, and Hayes, and
Garfield, and now he is expected to cast
his vote Governor for man who boasts
that lie has voted twice for Lincoln,
twice for Grant, never for Tilden, but
last fall for Hancock. If such nomi-
nation as that of Bookwalter is Democ-
racy. he wants no more of it. He says he
has grown tired ofIthe blundering weak
ness and idiocy of the Democratic party
is disguised with it, and hereafter pro-
poses to carry a 'free lance" He says
that il he concludes to vote for Foster,
he shall continue to regard himeslf as
atgood Democrat as BOokwalter.

was attended by representative men of
the county. Generally, its proceedings
we're harmonious, and its nominees men
of character. After the ticket was
completed, an effort was made to change
representation in the county committee
The radical change proposed was defeat

adopted. The advocates of the change
were not satisfied, but they were given a
full hearing. and left the convention
without any just cause of complaint. =
