General Wanamaker, that they desired
her to accept an appointment as post

in Randolph county, N. G. Her reply
to friend, who wrote her that he was
informed she had only to signify
her willingness to accept to receive the
appointment, was that, while sensible
of the kindness which prompted the
move, she would be unable to give an
affirmative answer, but, indeed, must
positively decline. She stated that her
father is ninety-one years of age and
needs her presence; that though she
dearly loved Lexington and all its peo-
pie, the place did not suit her health,
and she was confident she did not pos

GLADSTONE ON BRIGHT.
A Noble Tribute to the Memory OF
the Great Orator.

LONDON, March 29.-The session of
the house eff commons this evening was
devoted to eulogies of the late John
Bright. When the Right Hon. William
Henry Smith, who was the first speaker,
rose to address the house, all the mem
bers DOTTED their hats. Mr.. Smith, in a
short speech, described Mr.. Bright as a
man of thorough honesty of purpose and
great energy of character. If there was
any defect in his character, it was
the intensity of his advocacy of
the principles that he had adopted. AL
though warmly attached to the Liberal
party he could not sacrifice his personal
convictions for any of those cOnsidera-
tiOns which have great weight with
most men. If for a time he parted
from his old associates, under strong
sense of duty, there was no trace of
anger or personal animosity left. His
memory would would live long in the
hearts of men. He would go down to
the grave followed by the affection and
sorrow OF the country:
Mr.. GLADSTONE,
upon rising he was received with cheers

A PEDDLER MURDERED.
An Awful Crime Brought to Light
in PENNSYLVANIA.

PHILADELPHIA, March 29.-What
will probably prove to be one of the
most atrocious murders ever committed
in Southern New Jersey was brought
TO light late Wednesday after
noon by the discovery of the
remains of a man floating
on the surface of a pond near Tuner.
vile, small village in Gloucester
county. His nose had been broken, and
his head was covered with frightful
gashes. One cash on the right side OF
the head was ten inches long. Another
deep cash was found on the neck,
which partly severed the spinal column.
The body was very much decomposed,
and had evidently been in the water for
some time. The body was soon recog-
nized as that of Jewish peddler. who
visited that section OF the country once
q. month regularly until about three
months ago. when he was missed from
his rounds. As he had always stopped
with Joseph IIillman, young married
man living in Tuinerville, suspicion
was directed towards him. and this aft
ernoon Coroner Beall ordered his arrest.
and he was placed in custody. About
the time the peddler was due on an
other round. Hillman moved to
another house, and soon astOnisbed
everybody Ill lAe vicinity by starving
out with peddler's pack. He seemed
to have lots of money, and this fact was
mere astonishing as he was usually
known to be without money. He offered
his goods for sale at unusually
low figures. and on being questioned as
to how lie could afford to sell so low. he
is said TO have explained that he
found the pack and wanted to
dispose OF the goods as he had no
use for them. On one occasion he
got twenty dollar bill changed at a
country store, and at another time
showed twenty dollar gold piece. All
these damaging facts against Hiilman
were brought out to-day. and led 10 his
being locked up. An examination Of
the house from which Hillman moved
showed stains on the floor of the second
story room, and also on the boards on
the ground floor. These spots showed
evidence Of an effort to clean them up,
and it IS supposed they are blood
stains. The theory is that the unfortu-
nate peddier was murdered while asleep
on the second floor and his body carried
down stairs. When found, the body had
a rope tied around the waist, which had
evidently been used to drag the remains
to the pond. The stained boards were
sawed out of the floor this afternoon,
and are now i'll the possession of the
public prosecutor.

given for plaintiff against garnishee ON
the ground that the 1857 garnishee law
is unconstitutional. In note Judge
Baxter says: 1.-The provision of the
constitution (section -, article y relat-
ing to exemption of property from
seizure and sale, ETC., provides that the
amount of such exemption shall be de-
termined by law Chapter l79, general
laws of 1887, page 22O. provides that the
amount of such exemption shall be de-
termined by the court in each case as 1t
arises. In this respect such statute is
in conflict with the constitution and
must be disregarded.'' The case will
