Til E BALTIMORE TRAGKDV.
Particulars of tbo Keceiit NbocUInc Murder
UUU OUIC1UP.
The Baltimore Hun of Saturday says:
It appears that for the past two years Peter
Nesbcig, foimerly a seafaring man, but who has
recently been working at Ms trade ot sail
making, has been boarding at Mrs. Mary Ann
Anderson's whenever he was in Baltimore, ami
that be has often asked her to marry him, but
sue always reiused, telling mm, as well as
other peikons, that his only object in waut
ing Ler to marry biin was to get posses-
sum oi tue bouse iu which she Jived, to
gether with other property 6ho owned.
About six months since he left the city and
relumed three weeks ago, and the two seemed
to get along very well together. On
Wednesday night last Nesberg went out with
Frederick, 6on of Mrs. Andersou, nnd both of
them returned home about 10 o'clock, under the
Influence oi liquor, rsesuerg again asked her,
In the presence oi Mary Kidd. the oeeupaut
ubove referred to, to marry him. Again sue
refused, and said she did not want anything
more to do with him, as he had no right to take
the bov out and make him drunk, as his mind
was unsettled enough when he was sober, and
that he was perfectly crazy when he was druuk,
Both of them were very angry, and he accused
her of earing more for soma oim else than slia

THE TRAOEDT.
Everything remained very quiet in the home
until yesterday morning, at 9j o'clock, whe-i a
Mrs. Sincoe, who resides next door, and who
was in the second story of her own home,
beard the report of a pistol twice, ono shot,
being fired immediately alter the other. She
did not pay much attention to the noise,
although it 6hook the Kings In the wiud ws, but
thought that something had fallen in one of the
lower rooms, aud did not pay any more atten
tion to it. The woman Mary Kidd, who slept
with Mrs. Anderson, heard her get up about 7
o'clock in the morning, aiid go down stairs, but
did not hear the shots tired, and only discovered
the trag-dy when eowg down ihe stairway into
the kitchen, about 10 o'clock, when, seeing
blood upon the floor, without waiting to seek
further, she ran up stairs and awoke the lury,
who came down, and discovering the dead
bodies of his mother and the man upon the
floor, rushed into the yard crying out that his
mother w as dead.
A rtORRIBLE SIGHT.
The alarm was immediately given, and the
police olhcercn the beat, Mr. J. i. Jones, went
Into the house aud found not oulv the dead
body of the woman lying on the floor of the
kitchen, weltering in blood, but also that of
TeM erg on the opposite side of the room. Ihe
bodies, as they were found, presented a horri
ble appearance. The woman was lying oti her
l ack beside the stove, with her hair disheveled,
and a bullet bole in the right side of her
head, immediately above the ear, and
from which the brains were oozing.
The man was lying on the floor, with
his shoulders propped up against the stairway,
bis right hand firmly holding a pistol, the vici
nity in which lie was Iving being coveted with
blood, which came from a wound also in tlie
right side of bis head, near the temple. The sup
position is that after lie shot the woman he sat
down upon a chair and shot himself, as a chair
stood beside hipi. from which it appeared as if
lie had fallen. The supposition in regard to ttio
woman is that she was engaged in cooking at
tic time the 6hot was fired.
THE CORONER'S INQUEST AND VERDICT.
Coroner e-picer was summoned as soon as
possible, and about 1 o'clock an inquest was
held over the bodies, which were lying just as
ttiev were lound.
The jury, without retirinir. rendered a verdict
mat Mrs. Anderson came to Ler death from a
pistol shot in the hands of Peter Nesberg. who
tbot her in a fit of jealousy, aud them committed
filicide.
A CINCINNATI IIOKROR.
An l'Hlluinlile Yonna l.ttdy Killed by Her
l,oi-r-A .Mysterious t itne.
The Cincinnati Times of Saturday has the fol
lowing:
About nine o clock last night the citizens of
the west end ot Covington were startled by the
report that a very estimable young lady Miss
riiiiomeno eiimghoit Had been shot and
killed at her home on Philadelphia street, Ue
tween Seventh and Eighth streets, by her lover,
-t..i. 1.- i. . i- . . r i. -
ricueiiciv nuuis. it muuis mat ivoora nuu
visited the young lady's house about eight
o'clock last evening, aud fonnd that she had
gone to a neighboring grocery for coal oil. He
took a Feat iu the kitchen and awaited her re
turn. In about fifteen minutes she came back
and expressed some surprise atseeing him there.
After conversing for a short time the couple
went into an auloining room, but were not there
long when the family, in a u other part of the
house, were started by the report of a pistol
and the screams of the young lady.
Upon rushing to the door ot the room In
which the parties were, Mrs. Wellinghoff found
it locked, and heard her daughter sere lining
for some one to open it. The door was dually
opened by M'ss Wellinghoff herself, who
turned Ihe key. ehe then staggered out, ex
claiming that b red. had shot her aud that she
was d,ng.
loung Kocrs rushed trnntieaiiy out of the
house, and proceeded as fast as ho could to
the residence of tather troelich, a Catholic
priest, telling him that he had killed his sweet
heart, but that he did not luteud to do It; that
he didn't know there was anything in the
pistol.
ihe young woman died in about fifteen
minutes after she was shot. The ball entered
her left breast, penetrating into the body.
Esquire 1-rands summoned a jury, aud held
an inquest on the bod'.
THE VERDICT.
We, the jury empanelled to hold an inquest
on the body of Philomena Wellinghoff, an un
married woman about nineteen years of age,
find that the said Philomena Welliughoff came
to her death from a wound from a oistol-b.ill
discharged from a pistol In the hauds of Fred-
rick Koors, and that the handling ot said pistol
by said Koors was either malicious or careless,
but as to wbich ot these two the jury are di
vided in opinion.
INTERVIEW WITII THE PRISONER.
We visited the city jail this morning, and
found Koors lying on a mattress in his cell. He
was quiet, but appeared to nave spent a restless
night.
lie said that the shooting was purely acci
dental; that Miss ellinghott and he were in
the room together; that she was playlug with
him, and that he pulled out his pistol for no
particular purpose whatever. She caught hold
of ilia barrel and was trying to wrest it from
him when the weapon was discharged, but how
lie did not know. He said he was engaged to
be married to her iu August next If everything
went on right; that he hai never quarrelled
w ith her; was not jealous of any one; that she
had uo other suitor than himself.
Koors is a very intelligent and good-lookin
vonnf man. Ha Is a (it-rinan. hut sneaks Kuor,
lisn quite tlueutlj'. rasagels nlueteen years
and three months, lie is a clerk in the ollice
of bis father, who is a lumber merchant in Ciu
clnuatl.
DR. LANAHAN REINSTATED.
Concurrent Anion of the lllahona.
The concurrence of the bishops in the decision
of the Book Committee, which we published ou
Saturday, is as loliows:
Uo tlie Hook Vommtttee Dear Brethren: e
received your request to be present at this in
vestigation of the case of the Rev. Dr. Eanahau
while we were holding our annual session at
Baltimore. We felt very profoundly the gravity
and difficulties of the duty. We therefore ap
pointed a committee of our board to examiue the
difierent enactments of the (Jeneral Conference
and the present discipline relatlngtothe subject,
Weruetin i'uuaduipnia two d.tys before you
convened us hero to confer with reference to
our understanding of tho law, and as to the
nature and extent of our responsibilities In the
premises.
The result of theso careful delibaratlons is
embodied in the two papers presen'el to the
committee. We believe that these papers sutod
the constitutional and statute laws of the Chinch
on the subject, aud we felt ourselves constrained
to print them from a clear conviction of duty to
uii parties interested in the Investigation.
e have been led to make this statement, as
our communication is referred to iu your final
action.
In the further procedure of your committee,
iu the executive eeson, we had no strictly
ollicial connection; nor in your fioal action
have we any official authority. Yet. as yon
courteously invited us to b present, and
requested our oplnlous during your delibera
tions, we deem it to be uotn respectful and pro
per to add the following statement:
We are happy to 6ay that we witnessed with
great satisfaction the anxiety and carefulness
with which jou vonfcidered all the delicate and
J erplexirg questions upon which you have biien

the case, and were fully aware that there was
room for honest differences of opinion; but,
atttr having listened to the discussions, and
after I uli and careful deliberation, we are pre
pared to say that your action in the case meets
our approval, ws having been wise and proper,
and we believe it will be conducive to the best
interests of the Church and all concerned.

POLITICAL PRISONERS.
How They Oo.ht to b Treated A Liberal
KuclUh View.
The London Saturday lievieto has a remark
able article npon political prisoners, from which
w e make the following extracts:
There are two theories as to the mode in
which political prisoners ought to be treated.
According to the one theory, they are persons
who have been guilty of no moral crime, or at
most of a very slight one. They have tried to
incite to war or to mako war, and they have
been beaten. They are prisoners of
ought to be treated as such.
It is, of course, quite proper that
they Bhould be kept in confinement, be
cause the enemies of the existing (iovernmcut
cannot be allowed to go at largo. But they
ought to be treated while in confinement with
the respect and courtesy which a . generous
enemy always extends to those he has captured
on the field of battle. Thev ought to be care
fully distinguished and kept apart from
all ordiuary criminals, well fed, al
lowed to communicate with their
friends, subject only to such supervision
as is Becessary to ensure that they shall not
use their involuntary leisure in hatching or
aiding new plots; and they ought not to bo
called on to perform any mauual labor. This,
it is Eaid, is only In accordance with the preva
lent views entertained by society of their
ofiense. They have been possibly foolish; pos
sibly they may have only sacrificed themselves
as the pioneers ot a movement bereattcr to ba
successful, but the success of which would have
been impossible had not some enthusiasts
stepped forward to start it aud suffer for it.
ro one tfiinKs tney nave done anything dis
graceful. Their wives aud familits glory in
bearing their name, and have none of the
humiliaiion and sense of shame falling on those
w ho are intimately associated wilha pickpocket
or a lorecr. inoee wno adopt this tuoory
would have liked to see the Fenian prisoners
treated as they think the captives of Sedan
are, or ought to be, treated by the Germans.
lit course all political prisoners are not alike,
and no one probably would claim that the mur
derers of policemen at Manchester, or the
authors of the Cierkenwell explosion, should
be treated as if they were captive marshals of
France. But if the general theory were right,
the ordinary Fenian who has been guilty of
nothing more than treasonable writing, or acts
intended to promote disalleetion or war, ought
no more to sutler extraordinary peualues bo
cause some persons sympathizing with their
cause have been guilty of murdering innocent
officials and civilian?, than Canrobert or Ba
zaiue ought to suffer extraordinary penalties
because some French officers have broken their
parole. Tho other theory is that political
prisoners are exactly like other prisoners,
that sedition aud treason-felony are most dan
gerov6 aud pernicious crimes calculated to do
infinite liarm to nic ana property, and that the
law mubt be upheld with equal severity against
them us ngalnst any other criminal whose crime
has been defined bv Parliament as an act deserv
ing the same amount of punishment. But it is
quite consistent with this view to say that tue
rigors of penal servitude may bo properly re
laxed in particular cases, because those rigors
lull with unequal severity on ditterent men.
There are especially two parts of penal disci
pline which torture some men and hardly affect
others. The association with the ordinary pro
fessed ruffian is most painful to men who have
hitherto lived iu homes of decency or refine
ment, while to the habitual criminal it is pro
bably a source of positive pleasure; aud,
obviously, tho severer forms of
manual labor are nothing to
persons accustomed to hard manual labor all
tbeir lives, while they are full of excessive hard
ship to men w ho have never done a day's work
out of doors. The forger or the fraudulent
trustee is in these respects exactly on a footing
w ith the political prisoner; and in point of fact
the prison authorities do make a difference
when it can be shown to be reasonable that a
difference should bo made. They do not force
all those condemned, to penal servitude to herd
together, nnd they adjust manual labor to tho
constitution and previous habits of the work
man. Ail that political prisoners, therefore, if
this theory Is right, cau a?k. Is that they should
be treated as ordiuary criminals, but that they
should have such a relaxation of discipline
made In their favor as would bo granted to auy
oilier criminals who were like them in constitu
tion and previous habits of living.
MURDER IN TRENTON.
Horrible Affair A Alan Killed lor bU Money.
On Saturday evening, A6a Downe, a stranger
in Trenton, visited a numberof drinklng-saloons
in the southern part of the city, imbibing freely
at each. With him were two companions, who
drank at his expense, but not as deeply as no
did. lhelr appearance was not remarKabio,
and none who saw him bad any suspicion that a
horrible tragedy was to terminate their spree
Yesterday morning, at about 7 o ciock, uowno
was found in a dying condition in a barn in
l.'amilton township, about one mile from the
city. His left hand and wrist were badly cut
and there were deep black marks produced by
the clutch of fingers on his throat, lie was re
moved to a house near at hand, where ho lay
groaning and unconscious during tho day, until
4 o clock yesterday atternoou, when no died.
The circumstances attending the ease, aud par
ticularly the fact that his pockets had been
rifled and were turned inside out, leave no
doubts in the minds of the Trenton officers that
he was murdered for bis money. Coroner Par
sons, with a jury, viewed the body last evening.
and ordered a post mortem examination. Ihe
inquest will be held tp-day.
CALIFORNIA.
Cen.uM Returna-The Prr.ent and Future of the
mime.
The San Frauclsco Bulletin says: "The census
returns makes the population of California less
than 5(10.000. Probably it is quite 000.000. The
reports of the county assessors to Surveyor-
General Bost give the number of registered
voters at nearly loo.ouo. At this rate about oue-
fourth of our population are voters; but ten per
ceut. must be deducted from the rglstered list
for deaths and removals, leavlug iJ.j.OOO voters
a larger number of voters thau has ever been
actually polled. According to tue Mirveyor-
Ceneral's report fr 1S70, the taxable values of
the State are 4252. 401,337. Ihls Is nearly
18,000,000 less than the real values as returned
by the census agents tor ban vranclsco aloue.
As the proportion of assessed to real values
throughout the Slate is probably not more than
one-fourtb. it is safe to assume that the true
value ot properly in California is not under
41,000.000,000. It was returned by tho census
of lbCO at 4207.874,013. Thus the increase in
the last decade has been nearly five-fold; yet
within that period occurred destructive noods
and Droughts, and a large transfer of population
from our mining counties to other Stales and
Territories. Now that the railroad era has
begun, that manufactures are increasing, and
towns multiplying, we anticipate for the coming
decaue a sun greater degree or prosperity than
the above ugures suggest.

The Preklifent'a Flr.t Grand Itepeptlon on
1-ildiir Night Uomeoii. Tollelten, b.tc.
The Washington Patriot of Saturday says:
The first reception of the President and Mrs.
Grant came off last night at the Executive M-ui-eon,
and was attended by a considerable number
of ladies and gentlemen, a very large portion of
whom were strangers temporarily sojourning
here. The arrangements for tlie reception were
a great improvement on former occasions, the
ordinary dining-room having been prepared for
the gentlemen's dressing-room, and the State
dining-room for the ladies. The Marino Baud
occupied their old position in tho hall adjoining
the stairway, leaving the f.ast room and the
main halls entirely free to the guests. By this
arrangement tho usual crowding attendant upou
an assemblage of several thousand guests iu tho
hite House was almost entirely avoided, and
the pleasure of the visitors much "enhanced.
Ihe President was supported on his right by

DISTRESSING AFFAIR.
An Aged aid Wealthy t'UUen of Klchuiond

Mr. William Barrett, an aged sud highly re
spected citizen, says the Richmond Dispatch, of
fcaturday, died at bis residence, corner oi rmu
and Carv streets, yesterday, under most dis-
tret-slnir circumstances. It was about 11 o clocK.
He had ju-t finished breakfast. Tho colored
man-servant, Wilson, went to another part of
the chamber to wut away the dishes, and Mr.
Barrett took a piece of paper and weut to the
cmt tn ll.i't ,U i.ioe. Wilson, turning arouud
a momentaficr, saw the old gentleman stauding
beforo the lite witn tue neui oi uis uresting
u rm.iw r nn fire. He was tryiug iu a feeble way
to smother the blaze, but the material of which
the wrapper was mado being light and wadded
with cotton, almost iustautaueouly ho was en
veloped In flames. The servant, himself almost
infirm, stood for a moment panic-struck. ad
then dragged his master out of tho room into
the tiassuge. He then ran back to get a blau-
ket, which he threw over him; but by this time
uearly every rag of clothes upou his body had
bttn Lurned, aud ho was not only scorched a'l
ever, but bad inti-tlcd tho l!un"s. !)-. Cti-

Monday, Jan. 13. 1871. I
The rough weather to-day and the unsettled
condition of the stock market had a rather de
pressing effect on loans, and lenders are acting
with unusual caution. The rates on call loans
are firmer, and stock collateaals are taken only
with good margins. The favorite collaterals
are Government bonds, which command excep
tionally low figures. The Reading panic on
Saturday has had serious results ou the stock
market, and some days will elapse before It
will recover from the shock. We notice a dis
position on the part of the New York press to
accredit the flurry to a Philadelphia operator.
This is nn inexcusable error, to use no harsher
term. The cause of the mischief is now, and
has been for some time'past, a regular habitue
of Wall street. The discount market continues
dull and steady.
Gold is without change or feature. Sales have
ranged up to noon between 110 and 110;,
closing at 110.
Government Bonds are moving slowly and
prices are fairly maintained at Saturday's quo
tations. Ihe Stock market was fairly active and prices
were steady. City (5s, new. sold at 100
Sales of Lehigh Gold Loan at 87 for the 000s.
Reading Railroad was moderately active, with
free sales at 48f49, closing at 49 1-tti. Sales
of Pennsylvania at (52: Little Schuvlklll at 43;
Lehigh Valley at 008, and Philadelphia aud
Erie at 27(ft 27.
In Canal shares the only sale was in Schuyl
kill at 8.
The balance of the list was quiet. Central
Transportation stock sold at ftOJJ.
