Mrs SARAH FAwcETr died suddenly

MRS. SARAH FAwCETT died suddenly
on Friday evening at the residence OF
her son, T. c. Fawcett, Esq, in this
place, from neuralgia of the heart, in the
74th year of her age. Deceased had
been suffering for some time from neu
ralgic affections, but there was no ap'
prehension of her immediete death. On
the evening mentioned, she experienced
a numbness in one of her hands. and
while her son was in the act of rubbing
it, she complained of a curious sensation
in her head, when she sank back in bed
and died almost instantly. She was a
native of Philadelphia and came to
this vicinity when about IS vealsof age,
when she married Joel FawceLG, who
died several years since. A family of

NOTHING new has been developed in
the case of the mysterious disappear
ance of Sam. B. McColloch, Clerk of
Courts of Wheeling. Several new theo-
ries have been advanced and al ex-
ploded. Seine parties were sure they
had seen him in Chicago on last Friday,
but the man was not entirely identified.
The idea that he is dead has been aban-
doned by almost every one. Some one.
says Wednesdays Intelligencer. who has
been engaged in the search, says that
the mystery will be explained in good
time, gives rise to the belief that the
bar has information not known to the
general public. On last Saturday, the
prosecuting attorney preferred charges
against Mr.. McColloch, and he was re
moved from Office, and Mr.. Robert
B. Woods appointed by the court to fill
the vacancy. TITS was found to be ne
cessary on account of the embarrassing
complications met with in the Circuit
Court.

by JAS W. Riley, alleged humorist. AS

the more cultured may appreciate him,
but his Hoosier puns are too deep, too
wide and too shallow for a western audi
ence. Barring couple of his recitations
and character delineations, which were

THE case of Hobensack against Spence
occupied the time in common pleas for
three days last week. This is a case
brought fo damages in the sum of $25,-
900, for the alleged seduction by the de-
fendant of the plaintiff s wife. The de-
fendant, Mr.. L. Spence, is one of the lead
ing business men and manufacturers of
Martins Ferry, and has always stood high
in the esteem of the people there and
elsewhere. where he is known. DR.. HO-
bensack, the plaintiff, has been for a num-
Der of years a physician and druggist in
the same place, and is nephew of Mr..
Spence. About six years ago, Mr.. Ho-
bensack married Miss Emma E. Turk, of
this township, and for two years theirs
was happy life-after which, for vari-
GUS reasons, they gradually drifted apart
and in the last year she left her hus-
band, on the charge of drunkenness and
neglect. He tried to get her to return,
and in these efforts, had Mr.. Spence to act
as mediator. She agreed to live with
him if he would stop drinking and leave
Martins Ferry, but failing in these prom
ises, she brought suit for divorce, and ali
mony, after which this case for damages
was brought. A large number of wit
neSSeS were examined on both SideS-sey-
eral of the principal ones for the plaintiff
being the keepers and assistants of assig-
nation houses in Wheeling. All and eve
ry charge were emphatically denied by
the defendant, as also by Mrs Hobensack,
who was placed on the stand, and went
through rigid examination of five hours.
A letter, alleged to have been written by
IL - l.
confessed all the charges. and the writing
of which she emphatically denied. PLAYED
a prominent part in the proceedings The
case was given to the jury at p. M, Sat.
urday evening, and after az hours alb.
sence, they came into court with verdict
for defendant. An uninterested observer
who heard the entire case, would give il
as his opinion that it is a prosecution
wherein the demon jealousy takes the
leading role, and plays the principal part

home in Baltimore on Monday. Before
the days of railroads Mr.. Moore was Of
the firm of Neil, Moore s. Co, who oper-
ated stage coach lines between COlum-
bus and Wheeling. When the rebellion
broke out he took violent sides with
"his state" and soon afterward had Oc-
casion to leave Wheeling and seek some
place where the Union sentiment was
not so pronounced. The city of Balti-
more, whose people assaulted Union
troops passing through to Washington,
suited him better than the patriotic city
of Wheeling. and he has since made his
home there.
