Conviction OfCOOper.

Howard Cooper, the colored man who out
Brooklandville, Baltimore county, in April
last, was tried in the Criminal Court of Balti-
more on Wednesday. Miss Gray in her evil
dence stated that Cooper seized and dragged
her into the woods and that she was in his
power for two hours. The defence offered
no testimony, but asked for verdict for at
tempt assault upon the States testimony
The case began at 10 O'Clock in the morning
and at noon there was an intermission of an
hour and a-half. AT four o'clock the closing
speech was made by the State, and in less
than minute afterwards, without leaving
their seats the jury rendered verdict of
guilty. AS the verdict was rendered Cooper
called out in loud voice, 81 am guilty of
beating her but nothing else" Cooper's
counsel stated that they intended to appeal
the case on the point overruled by Judge
Stewart, which alleges the exclusion of col
ored people from jury service in Baltimore
county. The punishment for Cooper's crime
is death or a long term of Imprisonment
The swiftness with which trial and convic-
ton have followed the crime in this case will
no doubt have powerful effect in deterring
its repetition for time, at least
Offences of the kind of which Cooper has
been found guilty are more common in the
country than in the city, for the reason that
farmers wives and daughters are necessarily
compelled to 60 about, more or less, unat-
tended. The most of these outrages, too,
are committed by colored men, whose identi-
ty is difficult to establish. The people of
Hartford have more than once taken the law
into their own hands, in such cases, for the
protection of the honor of their women, but
it is always better to let punishment be melted
out at the hands of the law. Where crime
80 odious is undoubtedly proven, no false SEN
timent should interpose to shield the criminal
from the punishment due him for his terrible
crime, in order that others may be deferred
from like crimes.

Sam Patch by leaping from Brooklyn bridge
into East river, distance of 1876 feet A tug
boat filled with reporters and Others watched

foremost in the air, but turnel and struck
the water ON his side with terrific force,
rupturing b'oed vessels and fracturing
his ribs. Capt Boyton, who was in the

shortly afterwards. Surely n stop should be

The same devotion to the interests of the PEG.
