A YOUTHFUL MURDEREss.-A dispatch
to the New York Herald some days ago
gave AL account of the @oldb!ooded murder
of Melville Barrett, a boy OF seven years
old, by his cousin Mary Cooper, girl OF
eight. The scene CT the crime was near
Scottsville, in Albemarlc county. The boys
dead body was found in an clubhouse, and
it was suspected that The Cooper girl was
the murderer. The statement supporting
that theory, made by little tive.year. old
sister Of the young murderess, who claimed
to have witnessed the crime, was not gen.
orally believed. Circumstantial evidence
pointed TO David Cooper, au uncle ofthe dead
boy with whom both Of the children lived,
as the murderer, and he was committed
to jail in Abemarle. The TWO Cooper girls
were to have been taken to the Court house
yesterday to testify before the grand jury.
La talking with several parties Mary
Cooper. the eight-year old girl, acknowl-
edged hat she killed The boy. saying the
boy ate her egg which a hen had laid on
the bed That she and her sister persuaded
him to get in chair, ostensibiy to put up q
swing; that when the rope had been at.
tached to the ceiling OF the cabin, she made
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 bad already been devel-
oped that the boy was entirely under con-
troll of the elder Of the girls, and that she
had been allowed TO chaslise him whenever
she felt disposed. Bob the girls were
taken to Jail yesterday.

TROUBLED GRAZIERs.-From the upper
counties it is learned that the graziers are
becoming low-spirited, and are offering
their cattle for sale at much lower figures
than they, a short time since, anticipated
getting. The long winter has about ex-
hansted the supply of "long feed" and
there being as yet no appearance of grass,
graziers fear that by the tine spring sets in
they will have spent all their probable
profits On their stock in feeding them. Soto
save this expected outlay they are anxious
10 sell out now at low prices rather than
wait and take the chances of getting their
money back in case they hold on to their
cattle and feed them on grain Till the grass
begins TO grow.

power to make him comfortable and cheer
full He had rested quietly last night and
this morning appeared 80 much brighter
and stronger, that hopes are now enter
tanned of his recovery. Later in the day
DR.. Smith thinking the wounded mans con-
Gition would admit of his removal, he was
taken to the Alexandria In6rmary where

cared for. He seems now to be very penl-
tent and is anxious to recover.

aud father and that until recently, when he
had become victim to playing policy,
they had lived most happily together.
