Mustered In on the 10th of April.

A correspondent Of The STAR calls a..en-
tention to the fact that the date Of the mus
tering in Of company A, Union regiment of
this city. into the three months service of the
United States was April 10, 1861. and not April
IS. as stated in the records of the War Depart
ment. The files of TIE STAR for 1861 show
that the company was mustered in to a man
April 10.
The STAR of April IL. 1861. describing the
ceremony says: Company of the Union
regiment. Capt. Darlington. 100 men. having
been drawn up IN line north Of the depart
ment building we're inspected by Inspector
Gen Stone, after which Maj. Mcdowell,
U. 5. A., called the roll. The oath
was then read and the men were
ordered 10 hold up the right hand
unglOved and repeat the words of the
oath. swearing allegiance to the United States.
10 resist all enemies and opponents of the said
United States whatsoever; 10 obey the
orders OF the President and their
superior officers and 10 be subject
TO the army rules and regulations. Ten or
twelve of the men having refused to take the
oath because they were unwilling to be ordered
out of the District were told by the inspector
general that there was no probability OF their
being so ordered. when they consented unani-
mously to be sworn in"
After they were mustered in Capt Darlington
delivered Gn address to his men, congratulating
them that not one Of them had proved recreant
to his country.

DEFINING ON TRIAL.

The Australian Criminal Loses His Jaunty
and Indifferent Air.
Fred. Bailey Deeming, when he was mr.
raigned for trial in the central criminal court
in Melbourne yesterday presented marked
difference from his conduct at the inquest
Yesterday he was quiet and depressed and
looked very much disappointed when the Judge
decided that no further delay would be
granted and that the trial should at once be
proceeded with.
After the jury had been selected and the
usual formalities complied with the public
prosecutor began his opening speech, in which
he arrayed with almost irresistible force all the
facts in connection with the murder of the
prisoners wife.
Deeming had put aside the Hppant air that
characterized him at the previous hearings,
and he listened closely to the prosecutor .
speech. paying no attention to the crowd that
thronRed the court room, eager to see the GRIM
inal whose many evil deeds have brought him
worldwide notoriety.
All the witnesses who had testified at the
coroners inquest were bound over by that
official to testify at the trial, and they were all
present. Evidence was given as to the finding
OF the body of Mrs. Williams SO the name runs
IN the indictment, under the flooring of the
empty house al Windsor.
Dr. Mullens testified that he had made g. care
full examination OF the body, and that. in his
opinion, the woman had been struck a violent
blow on the head prior to her throat having
been cut. This he said. was clearly established
by the effusion of blood to the eyes.
John Stanford. a butcher, who owned the
house at Windsor in which the murder was
committed testified to hiring the place to
Deeming, who was known to him as Williams,
in November last. His tenant had gone away
without notifying. him that he had given up
possession of the house.
number of witnesses gave evidence to es-
taoiish the identity Of the dead woman.
Elizabeth SPEEDING. who at the time the
murder was committed lived next door to
the Deemings, said that at about Christmas
she could not recall the exact date-she heard
at night the sound of work going on in the
Deeming house. 1t sounded to her like the
Shaping and striking Of a trowel in the con-
struction OF brickwork.
II will be remembered that the hole in
which the body was placed by the murderer
was covered with thick layer of cement.
Some OF the passengers on the steamer Kaiser
Wilhelm II. on which Deeming aud his wife
came out from England, testified that Deem
ing appeared to treat his wife kindly on the
voyage.
Counsel for the prisoner asked the Judge to
disregard the plea Of not guilty previously en-
tered by Deeming. He had pleaded thus,
counsel said, against the advice OF his lawyers
and he now desired to withdraw that plea
The judge said at q later stage Of the pro-
ceedings he would ask the Jury concerning the
request Of counsel.
The court then adjourned

The sending of relief to suffering and starry

but we even find here ct home, where plenty 10

deprived Of the necessities Of life because the
country does not furnish enough employment
know several who are very much in need, but
who shrink from letting their wants be made
public. They are out Of employment by no
fault Of their own. Their distress 10 known
by few only, who try to aid them in q
humble way. II those who are able to do SO
would help these sufferers to employment thsy
could help themselves. Those who raaSly
suffer are not always those found running a{Icr
aid to the city authorities or relief committees.
II any who are able and willing to assist peo-
pie who are in need and worthy Of aid by en-
ployment or otherwise will make their ad-
dresses known through THE STAR, names will
be sent them and they can call and investigate
cases for themselves. JUSTICE.
