Mary Cooper. nine-year-old negro
girl living on the farm Of X. j. Bledsoe,
about three miles from this place, IN
Fluyanna. made confession last night
of the murder of Melville Barnett,
negro boy aged seven.
The boy was a cousin Of the murder
ess and the two lived with their uncle,
a widower named David Cooper.
Cooper had two children-Mary and a
Younger girl. The boy was found
dead on the floor on the morning OF
February 18th last, and it was at first
thought that he had accidentally hung
himself. A post-@o'tem examination,
however. made it plain that he died
from the effects Of blow on the head.
.Circumstantial evidence pointed to
Cooper, and he was taken to Jail three
weeks ago. though the smaller of the
girls stated from the first that her sis
ter killed the boy - for eating her egg. "
The girls were 10 he taken TO the Court
house to-day TO testify before the grand
Jury, and in talking TO Mr.. Bledsoe
and others last night the oldest OF
the girls acknowledged that she killed
the hoy. saying the boy ate her
egg which hen had laid on
the bed; that she and her sister
persuaded him TO get in chair, os-
tensibly to put ups swing; that when
the rope had been attached to the cell
ing of the cabin she made a loop into
which he was made TO put his head;
that then she Knocked the chair from
under him and struck him several
severe blows over the head with
shovel. Her confession corresponds
substantially with the statements
made by her sister from the outset.
The fact had already been developed
that the boy was entirely under control
of the elder of the girls, and that she
had been allowed to chastise him when
ever she felt disposed. Both the girls
were taken to Jail to-day.
The Good Templars held very
largely-attended meeting in the Metho-
dist church Friday night. Addresses
were made by Revs. ". W. Wood and
T. u. Bell, and some six or more per
sons pctitiOned for membership in the
order. The lodge here is in flourish
ing condition. and has about sixty mem
bers. DR.. ". NJ. Wade is the pre-
siding officer.

as well as though she was a young
woman.
The wind is bowling to-day, and the
thermometer is still way down below
the freezing point. The most anti
quaied resident does not recall winter
of such intense and protracted cold.

The heaviest Snow-stOrIn seen here
since the memorable winter of 1857 set
in early yesterday morning, and it was
not until Q o'clock last night that the
snow stopped falling, it being thirteen
inches deep at that rme. In some
places il had driited to depth Of nearly
three feet. The transfer-steamer Jane
Moseley, of the New York, Philadel-
phia and Norfolk railroad, could not
cross the bay, and 10 northern mail or
express has been received by that line
since Saturday. Captains of vessels
coming down the bay Saturday night
report the heaviest storm seen for years,
and the steamer CASTOR, Of the Bay
Line. had TO anchor of Back-river light

The schooner A. NJ. Bailey, from
Nantucket, \. j., went ashore at Viz
ginia Beach Yesterday and broke up.
She is total loss. Her crew was
saved.
A colOred woman named Mary John
son, while under the influence Of liquor
yesterday, jumped into the river from
Taylor's dock, with view TO suicide,
but the cold water had the effect to
change her determination, and she

For several days past the weather
here has been extremely cold. and all
the creeks and inlets are pretty well
covered v 18th ice. This spell Of cold
weather coming so late in the season
has proved very disastrous to the
farmers of this region. 1t has destroyed
the sweet-pOtato beds, about two thirds
OF which had been put down. Worst
Of all. the stock of seed-potatoes is
pretty well exhausted. and the farmers
will have trouble TO get another supply.
Well.iniormed persons say that the
peach crop will, under favorable cOndi-
tons. be an average one. Strawberries
are Of course unhurt and promise well,
but they have ceased TO be very re-
mmeratiye here on account of the diff
Guilty experienced in getting persons to
pick them.
Last year the crops on the Eastern
Shore were cut short by an mcxampled
drought, and the prospect for the cur
rent year is not bright for our farmers.
Major Mason. James J, Lilliston, and
Joseph Z. Laws, three wcll-known citi-
zens OF this county, died during the
week. The last-named gentleman died
suddenly Of apopleXy IN st. Mary's
county. Nd. where he was engaged in
business. lie was a half-brother to
Hon. b. T. Gmter, judge Of this cir
cult, and had but recently left the
county. His remains were brought
home and inferred in the old family
burying-ground near OnancOck.
Several days ago IL colored boy on
Chincoteague island accidentally drank
some concentrated I've. from the effects
of which he soon died.
DR.. Frank Fletcher. our State sena-
tor, and DIR. wilkins, the floater dele
gate from Accomack and Northampton,
both decline TO stand again as candi-
dates.
The race for the Federal Offices has
somewhat sbated here since Cleveland's
policy has revealed itself. and the con-
reversy in the local papers in regard
TO the right Of the County Committee
to have undue and extraordinary pow
ers in making recommendations and
influencing appointments has resulted
in good to the party by removing erro-
neous impressions and cnsuring fair
play all around. KALLIAS.

shocking Fate Of an Aged Woman who Mar
ried n Young Husband.
An Atlanta (Ga.) special SAYS: John
Mclnvale, aged twenty-five years, OF
Crawford county. was married two
years ago TO woman of sixty, whose
two sons and gray hairs seemed to fit her
more for the groom's mother than his
wife. She was possessed Of real estate
valued at about $1,000. After the
marriage Mclnvsle was unable to in
duce the woman TO deed him the pro-
perty, and last fall he decided 10 try
the efficacy of a lawsuit. The decision
was against him. and. penniless and
angry, he separated from the aged
bride. She continued living at her old
homestead, while he took up his abode
with a family residing about mile
away.
Two days ago Mrs. Mcluvale's sons
went TO distant field TO work, leaving
their mother at home alone. When
they returned for dinner her corpse was
found in the fireplace beneath a pile Of
blazing logs, her face and shoulders be-
ing burned beyond recognition.
II was thought at first that she had
been attacked with apopleSy and hal
isll,n into the fire. An investigation,
however. disclosed slick Of firewod

When the curtains were drawn back
Yesterday morning il was found that a
sncw-storm had been in progress for an
hour or TIVE. When the storm ceased
tabout 9 o'clock the snow was from
six to eight inches deep. Another
storm came on last night, and put on a
LAYER Of about four inches, and now, at
sunrise. the mercury stands at twenty
four degrees. IL is not thought that
much harm has been done by these falls
of snow or by the cold. The plant
beds are safe. and the fruit-trees had
not so FAR advanced the buds as To have
been open TO injury, and the wheat
lands have doubtless been benefited.
At 9 O'Clock the sky is clear and the
wind from the south.
Special revival services were held at
the Mount Vernon Methodist church
the nights of last week, and the ser
vices will be continued this week. The
