THE JOLIET OUTRAGE.
The Victim of ErcesJune's Brutal As
sauIt Likely to Recover.

JOLIET, ILL.,, Dec 2l-Mrs. HaycocH, tie
victim Of the Auburn house tragedy is
getting along well and will recover.
1t seems that she and Freestune, The
brute who assaulted her, had
been going together and were
engaged to be married; that he wanted
her to marry him before she was divorced
from her present husband, which she refused
to do, and this is alleged to have been the
cause of his brutal assault and attempted
murder. Her probable recovery is the only
thing which has saved Freestune from the
hands of Judge Lynch. In an interview with
Freestune, he said that he was drunk when
he committed the deed, or he would not have
done it; or, at least, would have done it in
manner less open and endeavored to escape
detection. He openly confessed the crime,
and said he was rather sorry when told that
his victim would probably survive.

NEW YORK, Dec, 21.-John T Lester, the
well known grain and provision Spectator
who arrived a few days ago from Chicago,
expresses an unconditional belief in higher
prices for corn, oats, and pork pro-
duce. He says that the corn is
so scarce and so poor in quality that the
farmers all over the country are afraid of
keeping their hogs until properly fattened.
They deal out to the animals all the soft corn
they have, and send them as quickly as posi-
bic to the market The consequence is that
the quality Of hogs is very poor, some
of them not being fit for anything except
bacon EHe does not see any reason for the
price of wheat to go up, but predicts that q
very lively advance will take place in oats
and even in rye when the actual condition Of
the corn crop is thoroughly understood.

PHILADELPHIA. Dec. 2l-When tho jury
in the case Of Ellen Poupard, on trial for the
murder of Samuel Butler were ready to give
a verdict, the prisoner, who had been con-
versing with some friends, was put into the
dock, and the men who held her fate in their
hands filed into the jury-box. The foreman
in q low voice announced the verdict of not
guilty.
The trembling girl in the dock could not
understand him, and the crowd of auditors
heard not sound. The prisoners face ex-
pressed intense suffering. As the court clerk
announced the judgment in clear, firm tones,
a great change swept over her countenance.
She sank with deep sigh down upon the
bench in the dock, and lay still for time,
her hands crossed upon her lap; tears fell in
big drops upon her cheeks, and her lips
moved rapidly as if in prayer. After she
had recovered her self-possession her counsel
moved for her discharge.
The girl, smiling and weeping by turns,
left the court room with her friends At the
top of the stairs she came upon littlo group
of men and women surrounding tall, gentle
faced woman in black, who lay in dead
faint in the arms of weeping friend The
woman was the dead mans mother.

Forced Labor i'm Egypt.

The conditions of forced labor do
not seem to differ much in the differ
ent parts of the country. Nowhere
do the laborers receive any pay or fNc,t
or shelter, while their treatment by
their task-maSters would seem TO be
simply brutal. Mr.. Stuart describes
the system as he saw it in operation in
the province of keneh. in Upper
Egypt. \ cut of about eighteen feet
in depth had to he made through
conglOmerate of sand and gravel; this
was thanked right and left by high en-
hanknentS constructed of the material
taken from the trench, and along the
bottom and on the slopes "men
swarmed thickly, like bees on honey
comb, for a distance of about milein
length" The entire strength of the
impressable labor in the province.
amounting to about 10000 man, was
concentrated on this work.
The men toiled from sunrise 80 sun
set, with the thermometer at 82 de
grees in the shade, having only brief
interval at midday for meal of bread
soaked in unfiltered Nile water. This,
with similar meal before beginning
and after leaving off, constituted the
days dietary. The laborers provided
their own baskets for carrying the eX-
cavated soil, and their own tools. when
they used any, but most employed
their fingers. Oyerseers walked about
among them armed with sticks, with
which they struck the men while they
were carrying loads upon their heads,
often without any apparent reason. At
night they slept upon the ground al
most without clothing, and quite with
out shelter, though the air was often
very cold. Mr. Stuart has often seen
negro slaves at work in the cotton
plantations Of Cuba, and the cOnvictS
at Portland, and both were to be en-
We'd, in his opinion, by the side of
these fellahs.-LORdon Globe

Thumps i'm n Horse.

Thumps is excessive action of the
heart, commonly called palpitation of
that organ. 1t may be due to nervous
disorder, functional disease of the
heart, indigestion, pressure of the col
lar, overwork, and pulmonary disease.
1t is most often due to disease of the
heart itself, and while it may not he
durable, yet tmay be much relieved by
proper treatment. If the disorder
comes on suddenly and has intermis-
sions it is functional in its character
and tonics are to be used. Give a
tablespoonful daily of Peruvian bark
powdered, with one dram of carbon
ate of iron, and feed the very best Of
food. II it is constantly occurring
and changing from bad to worse at in
tervals and there is swelling of the
limbs, the disorder is nervous or struc-
tural, and SedativeS must be given, as
