INNOCENT MEN SENTENCED

A Remarkable Case OF Irjustice to Two
Hungarians-A Toy Detective.
Some months ago two Hungarians, who
gave their names as BeEe Max and Pus.
back Max, were convicted at Pottsville,
on the unsupported testimony of an Irish
peddler, named McMenamin, of highway
robbery and were sentenced to two years
imprisonment. Joseph Lagus, clerk
of the county commissioners, who
speaks the Hungarian language to
some extent, while visiting the
prison subsequent to their conviction iu-
quired of them tho circumstances Cf the
robbery. He was almost dumbfOunded on
learning that they were utterly ignorant
of what had happened to them and were
wondering how soon they were to be re-
leased from this imprisonment which they
had done nothing to deserve. When in =
formed of the charge against them they
expressed the greatest surprise and indig
nation. Their statements were laid
before the district attorney and court.
Two young lawyers, who had heard the
facts, volunteered to assist in bringing
about their release. Thomas NJ. Snyder. a
lad of eighteen, was entrusted with work
ing up tho necessary evidence. He went
to Beaver Meadow, LuZerne county, where
the prisoners formerly resided, and in il
few days found sufficient proof Of the
truth of the prisoners stories to secure
their release. The witnesses were
summoned and brought to Potts
vile last night and quartered at
the Jail. The a'ibi TO which
they swore was heard by Judge Cree,
who afterwarG rcmandcd the prisoners 10
Jail until Monday. when the court intimated
new trial will be granted, whcreupon Il
mol. pros. will be entered in the cases, and
the unhappy lIunSarians set free. Until
Lagus interviewed them they were gencr
ally belived to be brothers. but they not
only arc not related, but did not know
each other until they were brought be-
fore tho justice for commitment.

And our king has made me knight to-day.
Now go to bear to my lady sweet

But tor her gladly yield wealth and priie.'
Then spake Knight Robert, "A hard divine
Should sound the praise OF love like thine,
But it's naught to this sacred flame OF mine
They have torn my chosen one from Inc

And said with tears, "Yc5, that love is best,

An instantaneous Light.

Such in a word is the unique appa-
ratus on exhibition at the rooms Of
the Portable Electric Light Co.. ~
Water street, Boston. 1t occupies
the space of only five square inches,
weighs but five pounds, and can be
carried with ease. The light, or
more properly the lighter, requires
no extra power, wires or connections,
and is so constructed that any part
can be replaced at small cost. The
chemicals are placed in glass re-
tort; a carbon aud zinc apparatus,
with spiral platinum attachment, is
then adjusted so as to form a bat
terry, and the light is ready. Pres
sure on little knob produces an
electric current by which the spiral
of platinum is heated to incandes-
cence. The Portable Electric Light
Company was recently Incorporated,
with capital of 100000, under the
laws of Massachusetts,. The useful
ness of the apparatus and the low
price 1851 will no doubt result IN itf
general adoption. Some of the prom
inent business men of the State are
identified with this enterprise. Ii
addition to its use as a lighter, the
apparatus can also be used ia con.
