Thomss Leonard, affirmed I reoide ; at
1115 Filbert Btreot ) 1 have lately moved
there ; in the winter of T)G and '67, in Mar
ket street, below Tenth, a part of the timej
on the 18th of March, '97, I moved to No. 4i
South Kighth Smith aud his wife boarded
with me in Market street, and also in higntb
street; they came about the middle of J ana
nry, 1S'7, and they stayed with me till the
birth of this child ( he lived very happily with
his wife, very much so ; never saw a man
mako more of his wifo in my lire , ho was ve
ry attcntivo and kind : it was the usual talk
about the house j his attention to bis wire
was observed by everybody j he was away in
New York ten days at a time on business j
Smith came to mo and said his wife was very
sick i 1 asked what was the matter and he
said he did not know ( be went after the doc
tor; the doctor camo, and I think the doctor
went away in tho afternoon j it was Dr. (Jil
bertj be came back in the evening; tho child
was born at 0 o'clock at night i Smith came
to mo to make arrangements for the funeral,
and said it was impossible for tho child to live
as tbey had only been married four months ;
I said leave it to me and I will have it ail fix
ed, aud be should have no trouble ; I suppose
this was about three honrs before the birth
or their child ; when it was born it was alive
and is still ; he became completely beside
himseir; 1 do not know what he done ; he
did not go to bed ; next morning 1 had trou
ble enough with him ; next morning he laid
hiB head on the table, tore his hair oot, laid
down on the floor, would wring bis hands,
could not keep still a minute, would walk
about iu and out or the bouse all tho time ;
he halloed so much I thought a mob would
congregate ; ho was beside himself, and dan
gerous to have about the house ; then pre
tended to go to bed by walking up and down
the stairs, and kept the house in confusion
ull tho time ; he did not eat anything ; this
continued :n the neighborhood of a week ;
oue evening tho bell raug for tea ; I insisted
on his coming and he would not, and said he
wus better deud than alive ; I was fearful be
would go out to the drug store aud mako way
with himself; 1 locked my chamber uoor ami
kept him there till about half past eight;
this was at six o'clock; he told me he had
laid on the comfort . and got some sleep, the
first he had siuco this occurred ; wheu I let
him out ho went out somewhere, and when he
camo back ho told me he had been (o see Mr.
Townseud, and ho told him to como next
morning; the next morniug after he had seen
him he told me he had employed him to get
a divorce ; he stayed in towu about a week ;
it was either Tuesday or Wednesday the child
was horn ; on Friday he went to New York;
I was glad ho did go as 1 was afraid some
thing serious would occur; when ho came
buck ha stopped at tho Madison House ; he
came up to see us and wanted to pay the bill;
said he hadn't the money theu but would have
it in a short time ; he was in town some time
uiid called backwards ami forrurds.
Adjourned until 3 o'clock.
AKIKRSOON SKSSIOS.
Thos. Leonurd, continued His checks
were Uooded with tears; at the time he roll
ed about the floor and toro his hair ; he kept
the house in an uproar ; ho was usually cry
ing ; said he could not go out without the liu
ger of scorn being pointed at bim ; on the
evening und next morning, he showed these
signs of distress; tho doctor, tho nurso and
my w;Ie, were present wueu the cLila wus
born; when ho left my house he wtut to
New York ; he came back in near a week,
und said ho could do no business there, or
anywhere cite ; he asked me where his wifo
was, over and over ogain ; I told l.im they
had moved her to Hristol ; 1 told him Mr.
Carter told me he hud made all necessary ar
rangements to take care ol Mrs. Smith
and the child ; this was the 15th or 10th of
May : he did not like this at all, aud ho told
me had gouo up there and he coula not und
her: he was just about as usual, completely
liesiJj hiiucell; 1 told him that Carter ac
knowledged the child was his, and wus very
proud ol it, and said he wouia nave given ten
thousaud dollars if ii had been a boy ; I told
this to Smith: "llo was us proud of it as cv-
r man was of a child ;" be was neither one
thing nor the other; could not make head uor
tail of him ; criud, wrong his hands, aud went
on ; he staid hero only a short timo, and then
went down South, where ho fouud he com J
not cet his divorce ; he returned on the lltb
or I'ilh of October, 1x57 ; he looked better
thau when he went away to tho South ; look-
od like a hew man t bo did not continue to
look better ; he was at our house, forward
and back at our house; then ho went down
like a skeleton; gut very thin, wild, crazy as
u loou ; his conversation was wild, and did
not stick to any subject at all I did not ad
vise my wife to remain in the presence ot
Smith.
Question Did you give your wife any ad
vice in regard to Smith upoD this subject,
founded upnu what you saw at the time?
Objected to and overruieu.
1 iruess it wus ubout a week; I lust eaw
Smith, before the shooting of Carter, on the
4th of November j ho had fillee away to
nothing almost to what he was when bo cume
up from the South ) be looked wild, his eyes
were half us big again as tbey usually were ;
he had shaved, and that mude a great differ
ence too; his conversation was wild, very
wild ; it was pretty lust, it wis unnatural ;
when I saw him last he was of unsound mind;
1 thiuk he bad eo mind at all ; he was un
commonly kind und clever to his wife j like
wise to all about toe house.

Explosion ok a Locomotivb. ThB locomo
tive explosion of Thursday, on the Sandusky,
Manstiicld and Newark ltoad, was perhapB
one of the most remarkable on record, aa we 11
for the terrific forte by which It was charac
terized, aa tho wonderful escape from death
of the engineer and fireman. The train loft
Monroovillo ot about twenty mitiutea past 8,
having Waited thirty five minutes on the O.
aud T. train from the West, and Dot proceed
ed a qnarter of a mile when the explosion
took pluce. The boiler parted io several
places simultaneously, the pieces flying with
tremendous force right and left, scarcely any
of them lodging Within forty yards bf the
track. One fragment, weighing not less than
two hundred pounds, was found in a field to
the left, eighty rods distant, while others, of
nearly equal weight, passed halTtbut distance
through the woods to the right, stripping
huge branches from the trees iu their pro
gross.
A piece of tho BBgilie belt was also picket)
up iu the field, one hundred and twenty rods
from the place of explosion. The flues of the
boiler were twisted into an almost solid mass
the heavy cyliudcrs twitched off, battered,
aud blowD a number Of rods, carrying with
them the pistons and part cf the connecting
rods the truck and dnting wheels, with very
heavy spokes of solid wreuglit iron, were bent
wholly out of shape in short the engine was
blown to fragments, on utter wreck, beyond
the possibility of repair. The fence on either
Bide was laid, by the escaping steam, com
pletely open, presenting an appearance sim
ilar to that of having been swept away by a
sudden rush of wuter.
At the momcut of the explosion the train
was moving at a very moderate speed, so that
the shock to those in tho passenger car at the
rear was not severe. What was left of the
engine pitched over iuto tho ditch on the left.
Only two wheels of the teuder left the track,
and but a single rail of iron received damage
enough to require replacement. It would
seem that had the engiuecr and fireman gone
over with the wreck they must have been in
evitable killed. Ltut they were both thrown,
by the shock, back into the tender, and their
lives thus saved. The face of the fireman
Was badly cat, apparently by fragments of
the boiler. Ho is also slightly scalded, bat
uuless tho skull has suffarcd more than ap
pearances indicate, bis case will not he crit

and scalds, but is uot confiuod to his bod or
room on account of them.

in use more or less for six years, and was

THE NEW-YORK TRIBUNE.
1857-S.
riHE TRIBUNE was first issued ai a Daily
I on the 10th of April, 1841. Its weekly
edition was commenced in Septcmlier of ths
same year i its Semi- Weskly in May, 1S4S. It
was the first daily in America to issue a double
or eight-page sheet at a low price, and it has st
least cvea with the foremost of its rivals in (he
rapid expansion of Newspaper enterprise, which
the great cxtcution of Railroads, and the estab
lishment of the Telegraph system have crowded
into these last sixteen eventful years. N lar
ger journal Is afforded at se low a price io any
Quarter ot the world i none in America, no Mat
ter a! what price issued, pays en equal imounl
weekly or monthly, for intellectual labor. It
employes correspondents regularly In the lead
ing capitals of Europe, and at the inoat impor
tant points on thie routiueat. with a liberal staff
of writers end reporters at home, regarding lull
esrly and accurate iiilormation ee the first ob
jeet of a Newspaper, and the timely and througti
al.iridation thereof as the chief nJ mf ita Edito
rial., in that spirit, THlt TRIBUNE das been
and will be conducted, extcadldg and perfect
ing itk correspondence so fast aS the increase
of its patronage will justify the ex pert se. Sbtnld
the current attempt to connect Die (ltd with Ike
Iew Werlilby the msgnetie wire prove success
ful, we shall very soon, at a heavy cost lo oar-
selves and, wo trust, a corresponding advantage
to our realera publish each morning a synopsis
of ibo preceding day's occurrences throughrint
Europe, Northern Alrira and Western Asia,
with regular rbnnrts of the markets, the moneta
ry aspects and harvest prospects of hither la
rope. With a good atlas beside llim and his
daily paper on his fireside table, the American
farmer r artisan within a day's ride of the city
may then study evening Ihe doings of the civili
zed world throughout the day preceding ; end it
scents hardly possible that any wh can read, hut
especially one who has children to educate, will
longer deny himself the pleasure and profit of
a daily journal. The same is true measurably
of those who live further inland ; though, where
mails are infrequent, a nemb Weekly, or even a
V eilklv paper, may seem aulhcietit.
THE J KIUl;.T; deals wilh qtipstioas ofPe-
lilical Economy, I'ublic l'oiiry . Kthics, Material
progress, and whatever may a Meet the intellettu
al,"Moral, Social and Physical well baittg cf
mankind, dogmatic Theology alono arcepted
Its leading idea is the hollaring of hottest, useful
W nrk in whatever sphere or capniilv, nnd the
consequent elevation of Ihe Lnbaring Class in
knowledge, virtue and general esteem. It is no-
bcssarily hostile to Slavery under all its aspects,
to Intemperance in whatever form or degree
with its accessories, to War save in the defence
of Country and Liliertv against actual invasion,
and to exery form of Gambling. Desiring to see
I roilui tinn extended and encouraged, while V.ilu
Speculation and unless Traffic arc ciirtiiilrd.it
t'n vois the policy of santaining and divrmf) in;;
Home Industry bv a discriminating 1 anil a
policy which tends to increase the price of Grain
to the farmer liile diminishing that nf Dread
to tho artisan, by reducing the distance across
which their respective products are exchanged
and, of course, reducing the cost nf their transfer.
regarding rillihusierism in all its phases, and
every form and device of National eovetouaness
with unqualified abhoriettce as the bane of Re
publics and in their triumph the Oravc uf Lqiinl
Human Kights, we 8cek ry every means to woo
and win the attention of our cniinttymcn from
projects of aggrandizement abroad to en erprires
of developetncnt and licneUVcucc at home, fore
most among which we rank a Railroad through
the heart ef our territory lo connect the waters
of the Atlantic with those nf toe Pacific, l'e-
lieving that the goods of thii life arc not yet fair
ly distributed, and Unit no one ready to work
should ever furnish in unwilling idleness, it lends
an open ear to every supgrstion of facial Im
provement which does not ruutitervait the dic
tates of eternal Morality nw war tip"n that na
tural right ol every one to whatever Ite has fairlv
produced or honestly acquired, whose denial
ml'st sink mankind into lli chaos and night of
barbarism and universal squalor. With A pro
found conscientiousness that idlers, drunkards,
libertines and profligalet' can never be other (in
the main) than needy ami Tretched, it bears
aloft the great truth that Prevention is belter
than Punishment that the child trained up
the way he should go, will rarely in after years
desert that way for the thorny paths of Vice and
( rime that a truo i.ducation KeliGions, Mo
ral and Industrial u well as Intellectual is the
most effective temporal antidote to Ihe errors and
woes of our race. Recognizing in the most de
rrraded specimen of Humanity a divine spark
which shsuld be reverently cherished, not ruth
lessly trodden out, we have charity tot all forms
of evil but thoee which seek personal idvantage
through the debasement nf our fellow beings.
Ths cfiampioe cf no class or caste, lie devotee
of no sect, we would fain bn the interpreter to
each other of aneu's belter impulses aid aspira
tions, the harbitifer of general concord between
Labor and Capital, and among those whom cir
cumstances or misapprehensions have thrown
into unnatural antagonism. A cotemporury
once observed thill he never knew a hard, gianp
ihg, nigardly employer who did nut late THE
TRIBl'NE, nor a generous, lame tidied, kindly
one, willing to live and let live, who ilrj not like
it. o ask no higher praise, no warmer atf
tation.
The circulation cf TU H TKI3UNI: U r.
this time as follows: Daily 32.1)1)0 copies;
Weekly, 17B.8UO copies; rteici-Werkly, lG.ntlO
copies; California and F.uroiean, 1,1)1)0 copies
Total, 2nn,H00 copies. 'J hat of the Semi Week
ly and Weekly we believe to be exceeded by no
other newspaper published in file wurld,t!iat
of the Daily falls behind that of some ol nar
colemporaries. Had our lioMilty to Human
Slavery and tho Liquor Traflic Seen more guard
ed and politic, our Daily issues would now be
some thousands heavier and our Advertising far
mofe lucrative ; but of our patrmige gtmerally
we have It reaaon, no wish, lo cortplnln.
Of la.e, a concerted ellurt haa been made to
diminish our rural circulation thrtugh the influ
ence of tho Postmasters; some of whom embark
in it eagerly, others under political constraint;
while a large number, we arc litppv, for the eake
of Human .Nature, to state, refuse to lie dragoo ed
into it at all. Still, we have U rn made to feel
the heavy hand ol" Power, aid have doubtless
lost thousands of subsriibcrl in consequence.
Pretext!! to which no individial in his private
capacity would have stooped lave been relied en
lo justify ihe itopputre cf our pnprrs within
reach of their subscril crS anl riflitlul otvneis,
ami their retention in the l'lst-OOice till their
value was destroyed. Postnasters lmvo been
schooled by rival journal- leveral of thefn liv
ing as theii Self-proclaimed ai'lity tu serve as an
antidote to THIS Till U IjJN J as lo their point
cat duty 10 promote at our fxpensc the dissem't
nation of gatetteS of adverse, politics. We snail
outlive lliis Warfare, but we donot affect indiffer
ence to it. In the open full of discussion, we
fear nothing ; but in the lens of thousands of
rural neighborhoods where the Postmaster can
induce many of hts quiet iitigtiborr) te take the
journal he recomineinis, we nave already lost
some patrons, snd expect to lute more as cur
subscriptions for this year enjiiro. We appeal,
therefore, te the hearty, tiitutul, tearless auro-
cates of Free Labor and Pico Soil throughout
the land to take care that this official warfare on
our circulation be not prosecuted without conn
teraetion. We employ no tiavehng agents, for
we will not consent te have iho puMis harassed
with the Solicitations of slmrigers in our beliall.
We strike the name of tacit subscriber to our
Weekly or Semi-Weekly from our books so
soon aa Ins term has exiiireu, lor we will uoi
haunt our patrons wilh duns for arrears which
they my say they nevei Intended to incur, for
papers which perhaps tbey never read ; we lelv
for Ihe renewal of our club subscriptions solely
en the volunteered ell'oits of those who, liking
our paper, believe its .influence salutaty and
worthy to be extended: and thus far our reliance
baa been justified, as we trust it may continue
lo he.
