GOV KELLOGG.

one OF the happicst men in town yesterday

as many congratulations as any Of the ac-

granted that the failure of the government to
convict would result in the dismissal of the
cases against him. The governor was in high
good humor. Among the dozen or more dis
patches of n congratulatory character received
by him during the day and evening was ono
from Louisiana editor Of u democratic
paper, couched in the following language ::
For the rod of the wicked shall not rest
upon the lot of the righteous"
Mr.. Ker said last evening that the govern

Brady ready for trial during the summer, but
when asked if he thought they would be
pressed, he did not reply very confidently in

One was addressed to Mr.. De Casali, one to
Colonel Lionello Bettini (his uncle), Verona,
Italy, and two to Miss Aver. He had also
made his will. The will and the letter to his
uncle are in the hands of the police. The
letter to Mr.. De Casali was delivered to
that gentleman yesterday. To Mr.. De
Casali Bettini expresses himself in most
extravaganza terms of friendship, and
thanks his friend again and again for his
many kindnesses to him. He says in the
letter that he had resolved to take his own
life if Miss Aver rejected his suit. The let
ter was written, he adds, Immediately after
his return from a drive in the park, where
he went to get the bracing fresh air in order
to prepare himself for the suicidal act. The
letters to Miss Aver he took to the house
with him and after leaving the parlor he
gave them to the servant, with five dollar
note, requesting that they be delivered to
Miss Aver Both of the letters are full of
affectionate illusions to the young lady and
reproaches for not accepting at once his offer
of marriage.
Mr.. Frederick Aver, brother of Miss Aver,
says that it was on Sunday evening that he
first learned of Bettinfs peculiar conduct
His sister had been introduced to him at
Fortress Monroe, but he had only called at
the house in this city four times. The state
ment that his sister had encouraged him and
then rejected him was utterly false, as she
knew but little of HIM, and never regarded
him in the light of a sutton. When
Bettini asked her on Sunday even
ing to marry him she had not rejected him,
because she was afraid of him. Mr. Aver
thinks that it was likely that Bettini had
visited the house with the intention of kill
ing his sister and possibly himself. At all
events in his opinion Bettini is crazy. He
had made SO many threats against his own
life that people at the Windsor laughed at
him. No sane person, he thought, would
have acted as he did. For instance, Mr.
Aver says that Bettini had told Miss Aver
that he did not care much about shooting
himself, because he would not die immedi-
ately, and the newspapers would regard the
affair as a huge sensation The extraordi-
nary photographs which he gave Miss Aver
also show a morbidly- mind.
When wounded and learning that he was to
be taken to St. Luke's Hospital, he said:
Take me down to the Windsor; am not
going to die" Mr.. Aver thought the pres
ence of Mr.. Trowbridge in the house had
alone prevented Bettini from shooting Miss
Aver,
