ALEXANDRIA, VA.
WEDNESDAY EVENING, JANUARY %, 1884

YESTERDAY, AT Pittsbug, Pa, the jury in
the case of James Mutt, charged with the
murder of n. L. Dukes, after trial marked
with Incidents showing strong sympathy on
the part OF the spectators for the defendant
brought in a verdict of "Not guilty, on ac-
count of insanity at the time the act was
committed" Thus closes painful story.
It's beginning was in letter written by
Dukes to the father of young Mutt, impugn-
ing the character of his sister. When the
father of the girl called on Dukes in refer
ence to the matter, and all interview was
bad in room when no other persons were
present. an alteration and scuff1e ensued,
during which Dukes shot Mutt, killing him.
There was intense feeling against Dukes at
Uniontown, where the affair occurred, but
at the trial the jury sustained Dukes's plea
that he killed Mutt while acting in self de-
fense. This result was received with pro-
found indignation, and meetings were held
in Uniontown at which many persons occu-
plying responsible positions in society de-
nouuced Dukes and his crime. The excite
meut also of the community i'll which he
lived, and the violent language he con-
stantly heard applied to Dukes, caused
Young Mutt to resolve to kill the slayer OF
his father and the traducer of his sister, and
living in wait for Dukes, shot him dead

THE REPUBLICANS Of Pennsylvania are
now availing themselves of the use of ille'
gal tax receipts as the Mahoneites in Vir-
ginia did. No man can vote in the key
stone State without a tax receipt. Such q
system, according to the Mahoneites, was
terrible crime when it existed in Virginia.
Governor Cameron would have been more
consistent if he had made free vote, in
stead of a protective tariff, the condition OF
that famous thousand dollar contribution OF
his to the republican campaign fund OF
PENNSYLVANIA.

IrHAs long been known that some OF the
committee rooms at the Capitol at Wash
inston were used for unseemly purposes;
but until the present session privacy
and coucealment always attended such use,
and the knowledge Of it was of circum-
stantial, rather than Of a direct character.
But Mr.. Hale, of Maine, Mr.. Frye's colleague,
upon recent occasion turned bis committee
room into a banquet hall, and gave high"
break fast there, at which there was rs much
abandon as though it had been given at a
restaurant, and knowledge of which was
free to all who sought it. "After us the
deluge!" Augean stables.

DEATH OF DIR. LEwIs.-Ever since the
announcement in the GAZETTE, of Dr.. Lewis's
illness its columns have been eagerly scan
ned By many in this village and vicinity
hoping to see the joyful intelligence of his
recovery. Imagine the shock it was to learn,
ing the notice of his death the paper fell from
the hands of her who read, and for many
minutes not word was spoken while tears,
silent tears, flowed plentifully. Oh strange,
sad decree of fate that this man-one of ma
ture's own true noblemen, should fall in
the midst of his great usefulness, while en-
joying the proud pre-emiDence he had at
tanned in his profession. Truly he will be
much missed and deeply lamented not only
in Alexandria but in the surrounding coun-
try. where he was known and loved D.
