his pretended fellow townsman to tako n
walk, introduced to another alleged bus
mess man, and then the old, Old "game" "
was played. AS the priest would not
bet his money or accept the winnings
that were declared, the rogues simplifed
matters by stealing his pocketbook and
escaping while the virtuous owner of
the rumshop in which the "business "
was transacted was quite indignant with
the priest for making disturbance
The end of it oil was that tho reverend
gentleman got neither his money nor any
satisfaction, although he ought to be able
to recoup himself by locturing on the
"Pitfalls of New York" There have
been so many thousands of similar cases

The Kentucky Tragedy,
SENATOR VOORHEES, S POWERFUL APPEAL
FOR TIE DEFENSE.

Il am here to show YOU that the de-
tendant Is guilty of no crime either by
human or divine law" were the few
words of Senator Voorhees, in commence
ing his argument & the jury in defense
OF Congressman Phil. b. Thompson,
who shot and killed his wifc's cousin.
I'm the cold language of the indictmen,
he IS classcd rs a murderer. He is not
OF the criminal class, but law-ahiding
citizen, and, by the help of God, before
| get through I'll show you who the
murderer Is. I'll show who murdered
peace at the tiresidc who struck an
assassin's blow at the sanctities Of II
home !! The Senator appealed to hui
man experience, to Deuteronomy and to
the Kentucky code for examples of pun
lshmcnt for the slayer Of the scduccr of
his wife. He then drew an eloquent
picture OF homo and the estimation men
set upon it. He made reference to tn"
age of the county and town-thc FIRST
permanent settlement in Kultucky--in
which never before had case Of this
KIND been before its courts, and not one
case of Grim con. has been noted in all
Its history. Having rounded up his APP
peal to human history in support of
what he termed the universal practice of
mankind i'll holding the slayer of Sc
ducer of ones wife, daughter or sister
Sultless, the Senator proceeded to the
question of the emotional insanity of the
defendant. On this line his proposition
was that Phil. Thompson had reason to
believe the story of the iniidclity of hi,
wife true, and that the state of his mind
was such that he could not control hi:
actions when he met the bctraycr of hi.,
domestic peace. In the outset Of this
branch Of his argument he grouped the
facts i'll evidence of the conduct of t..
slain man at Cincinnati with consumat;,
skill. Next camo the portrayal of the
oilense, made with equal cloqucnrn; au,i
after that an argument Of the inadcu,lu.
cy Of the law furnishing adultery in Ken
rucky and Ohio. "Not less than 500
nor more than $50 fine, and the liability
of damage" said the orator, "and for
what ? Damages for lost paradise Dam
ages for n shattered home Damages
for a dcsolatcd household! Damages
for lost daughter! Damages for
wrecked hopes Why, what would II
man do with such money? It would
burn his hand; shrivcl his heart. Oh !
sweet is death in comparison I'd leau
to it as a refuge"
