'rum that .lime Miss tiietnneeke seems jbuve declined very rapidly. During jeuUeruuou and evening the defendant iid her a number of visits.

On February 10, .1869, lebody was disinterred, and a post mor. • m examination was. held. This was drteeu days after the death.

In support of these (and perhaps other) points several respectable practitioners were examined on the trial, and'a num ber ol learned physicians and chemists have recently submitted their views thereon iu opposition to Prof Aisea. f lhe disagreement of experts is unfortu nately developed by every cose involving scientific investigation® VVe.must invoke ttieir aid. (Saunders, J>, in one of the earliest cases, paid : “I grant that if mat ters arise in our law which concern other sciences or faculties we commonly apply for I he aid of thutsoienceor faculty which it concerns,” vo. Rice Thomas, 1 Piowdeu, was over 300 years ago, but it was no new doctrine at that date, for experts were known to the Roman law. (Ordro® uaux’s Jurisprudence of Medicine, 129.) Notwithstanding the antiquity of this usage, 1 doubt whether the case was ever known In which there was an entiio agreement of experts and the u confusions o/science’’ are doubtless us old us the rule which admitted the evidence of skilled iu art. It is certainly an elemen tary rule, that Jn searching for poison every known test should be applied, and that the opinion of an expert, however celebrated, is utterly worthless, unless ho can support it by reliable data. Dr. Aiken undertakes to explain the omission of the . nitrate of silver lest® He sajs its use ‘‘cun only produce acyauide, which must af terwards be verified by the sulphur.and iron tests.” But I do not propose to discuss the points upon which profes sors differ. If they whqSfttve devoted their lives to the study of these questions cannot agree as to the results, it would be hopeless for others to undertake a'settle ment of their controversy* The answer given by tbe law to all of these disputa tious Is simply this: The whole question was thoroughly discussed and fairly sub mitted to tbe tribunal selected for its so-' lutiou—the jury ol the vicinage. They have settled it, uud with them rests the responsibility. Had their verdict been against the evidence tbe court, would never have entered Judgment thereon. Had thejudge commute a any error in admissions or lejecliuus of evidence <;r iu his instructions to the jury, a writ of error would doubtless have been allowed. The refusal ot the allocator by the su preme court is a decision by our high, si tribunal that there is no error to be found iu the record, aud their judgment is bind* tug upon the executive as to all mutters of law within thelrjuilsdiction. The v«i> diet of the jury and the judgment thereon of the eoui t below is equally conclusive as to all the questions of tact. In. my view this proposition disposes of the whole case and. unless the grant, or the power lo pardon invests the chief mag istrate with the functions of a high court ol error and appeals I do uutseehowany ol the points so ably aud elaborately pre sented by the deleuduut’s counsel can here avail. , A case of oppression may bo imagined in which it would be the duty of the ex ecUiive to interfere, but no pue eauifeud the charge of the learned judge who ■pre sided at this tripl'Without being impress ed with its lalrness and nnpariia ity. For these reasons I respectfully recom mend that you decline to review the questions'passed upon by the court aud jury. . With great respect, your obedient Ser vant, . F.

In pursuance of this recommendation, the Governor dismissed the application forpardoa and directed the death war rant to issue, which was issued from the oflice of the Secretary of the Common wealth ou the 24th tilt., and reads as fol lows : In the name, and by the authority op the Commonwealth of Pennsyj^- , VANIA John W, QeS % y , Governor of said Com monwealth, to Joseph C,.U!iompson\ Esq, t High bhei'iff of the County of Cambei'land, sends greeting: Whereas t At a court of Oyer and Ter miner and General Jail Delivery, held at Corlisle, in and lor the county ot Cum berland, in this Commonwealth, a certain PAUL Sohoepph, who had been at April session, A. 1).

Some time since he wrote a letter to the Governor, admit ting bis guilt arid requesting him to fix an early day for the execution. He claims that his acquaintance with and mar riage into the Fry family was the source of all his troubles. and that it was a dis pute in regard to the character of bis wife which led to the quarrel which re sulted iu the death of Slahra. linger existing laws capital executions take place within the walls of the jail dr jail yard, and none are admitted except those required by law to be. present. A position will doubtless be selected iu the most secluded portion of tbe yard where none will be able to witness the execution of the sentence of tbe law from any of the elevated positions outside. It Is tbe design of tbe officers of the law to en force a rigid observance of -order; and as a large force of police and probably mili tary will be employed, and' as all ap proaches to the prison will doubtless be effectually guarded, those whose morbid curiosity would prompt them to visit town on that occasion; are advised that all they will be able to see will not pay them for their pains. The Murderer Clare.— Justicelnoves slowly in Maryland. We see by the Baltimore papers that John Clare, who was convicted nearly four years ago, of the murder of Henry B. Grove, of this place, is to have a new trial during the present term. The Baltimore people, who manifested so much eagerness to avenge the murder of one of their own people, had as well look at home. The case against Clare was. so clear that the jury had no difficulty in finding a verdict of guilty ; uud the verdict was at the time endorsed as a lighteous one by the press of tbat city. Hqw tbe case has been permitted to lie over for this length of time, we are unable to comprehend.— If Clare was entitled to a new trial, he should have had it at once® It looks al mostllkea mockery to have a re-hearing now, when the witnesses .may be scut*, tered to the four corners of tbe earth, and so •e of them may probably be dead. If Clare is an innocent man, he lias suffered gross injustice by beiug confined iu pris on fur nearly five years; If he is a guilty man, as a jury of his peers declared' him. -to be, he should have met tbe reward of his crime before this. The circumstances of this case, of which we gave a full report at the tiine, were as follows: Oh Sunday afternoon, October 29tn, 1805, Henry B, Grove, son of H. H. Grove, Esq., of this place, who was a photograph iu artist, was found ly ing dead in his place of business, in Bal timore, with u pistol ball in his bead.— His pockets were turned inside out and rifled, aud bis watch and pocket book were missing. A pistol shot had been heard, and a young man corresponding iu description lo John Clare bud been seen going from the direction of the house. Clare hud sold a watch and chain in : Washington, which .were identified by Thomas Coulyn and H. H. Grove, as the watch and chain of young The hook by which Che chain is fastened to the vest was missing when Clare dis posed of the chain, and this, hook was found In a heap of rubbish near to the spot where the dead body of young Grove was found.: In a bag under Clare’s bed was found a Smith & Weston revolver with one barrel discharged, ami the bul let found in young Grove’s brain was of a peculiar kind used in those revolvers* In Clare’s possession was also found a photographic negative of himself, which had been in Grove’s possession the day before the murder. The assassin had, trumped iu a pool of blood aud then stepped upon the oil cloth, and this im pression corresponded exactly with Clare’s boofcf upon which blood was also found* aud this blood, when analyzed by Dr. Aiken, was shown to be human biood.— The defense attempted to prove an alibi, winch was not at all conclusive to the minds of the jury. When the-verdict was rendered, Clare fell Co the floor us if he himself hud been smitten by a bullet from the hands of an unseen assassin, and lay iu an insensible condition for some minutes. Murderous : Assault-- Attempt to Shoot General Hatch — A Miraculous Es cape—The Assassin Droves to be Insane. —Op Thursday evening lost, a soldier at the Garrison, who . was on guard at the residence of Gen’J. Hutch, the command ant of thh post, walked into the entry and enquired for the General- General Hatch appeared at the door of his sitting room and asked “what do you want?” The man made no reply, and he again enquired “what do you want?” When the man suddenly leveled his carbine— which uas a bieech-laader-tbrew the barrel down,'; placed a cartridge in the chamber—sprung the ~ barrel, us lie thought, back to its place, took delibe rate aim at the General, and pulled tbe trigger. All this took, but an Justantof time, and hud it not been for a Provi dential circumstance, General Hutch would doubtless have been hilled, as he was entirely unprep. red to defend him self, and the attack was so sudden and unexpected as to admit of neither ad vance nor retreat. Luckily a small pin, which cou’hectir the barrel with the bieecli, wa.' out of place, aud the barrel did not spring back far enough for tbe hammer to hit the cup in the cartridge, consequently the load was not discharg ed. lu another Instant, and before the soldier could remedy the defect aud take aim again, General Hatch hud bounced him like a tiger, wrenched the caroine from his grasp, and felled him to the floor. He subsequently took him to tbe guard house and handed him over for sale keeping. In the morning the mat ter was investigated, when it appeared tbe man was out of his mimh He had served in the army at the South, where he had an attack of yellow fever, since which time he has had occasional at tacks of mental derangement; A medi cal board was convened which pronounc ed the rain insane and recommended h!s discharge from the army.

The Burning of the Old Building—Three Lives He* atroyed—fha H-w Building Authorized by Law —A hull Description of the Home and it* In• metes— n 't*e County t'obr House . On the evening of Thursday, -Decern* i bet 19th, 1807, the imnptesof Ihe county Poor House wore startled by the cry of fire. It was soon discovered that the i two story brick building, then used ex* clusively for the accomodaiTdtrof the In sane and negroes, was on fire., A largo stove, used to heat an upper room, had > selflretoanadjoln'ug board partition,and > in a short time the entire building was i in flames. Three persons were bujued r to death—William Smith, a raving i maniac chained to the 4 floor, u white • woman, and an old colored man named i Jackson. The sad fate of these unfortu nate creatures awakened the deepest feel ing throughout the community; and the > want of suitable accomodations for our blind and insane poor began to be seri ously considered. Heretofore some of the Insane were sent to Harrisburg, and maintained there at heavy expense to the county, while others who were deem ed incurable were confined in dungeons at which the civilization and humanity of the age revolted. The desire for some imnrovement in this direction became so general that it found expression in the report of the Poor House visitors appoint ed by the court in 1807. After alluding to the destruotiou of the old building, they say : u Werecommeud the erection in Its stead, of a suitable building, with the modern improved and safer method of heating buildings of this class by hot water, or heaters In the basement, and that this building, thus heated and prop erly ventilated, be set apart lor the in sane and blind of our county.” Heartily concurring in the views expressed id this recommendation, the Directors of the Poor petitioned the .Legislature for the proper authority to build. It was accordingly enacted that “The Directors . of the Poor and the House of Employ ment of L'umbeilaud county, are hereby authorized to erect asuiUible buildlng, for the comfortable accomodation of the blind aud Insane poor of said county,” and by. a subsequent section ibe County Commissioners are authorized aud di rected to supply the Directors with the necessary funds. In the spirit of this ’act the Directors of the Poor spared no pains Co secure such a building us would fully answer the humane end proposed; and aftering visiting a number ot similar buildings, and receiving a plan aud speci fications from L. M. Simons, an archi tect of much experience, entered into a contract with our fellow citizen Col. John Gutshall, for theerection of the building* Its entire cost was $40,000, and it is a specimen of complete and thorough workmanship. It was commenced in the fall of 1868, and finished a month or so since. It is a handsome biick build- ing, three.stories high, with a basement surrounded by ua area, Tne building is a hundred and nine feet long, and thirty nine feet deep, a wing running front, at the centre of the building, eight feet deep and another wir g of the same size in the. rear. These wings contain the ..main hall, approaphed front and rear by hand some porches. Standing in. an elevated position, with at lawn stretching down to the Cumberland Valley railroad, it pre sents a handsome and imposing appear ance, and is a credit to Colonel Guishall and an honor to the county. When iu course of time the lawn shall have been planted with trees and shrubbery, and otherwise beautified, it will compare very favorably in its outside appearance with any’similar Institution iu the State. In its inside arrangements.!!, is probably superior to any other local institution, by reason of its having ail the latest im provements in regard to heat, water and ventilation. The entire buiidiug is heat- ed by four Boynton heaters of the larg- est size, supplying a register to each room and to the main halls. On the third floor are two large reservoirs or tankssupr plied-with water by a force pump from two large cisterns in the yard, from which the water is introduced by pipes iuto all parts of the house. There are sixteeen rooms, two bath rooms aud two water-closeta 4 on each floor. There is also in (he basement a general wash room, furnished with, a dozen perma nent tubs, and supplied with hot and cold water, and a kitchen which has all the-latest improvements in the culinary art—such us range, sink, boiler Ac. Each , floor .is divided Into two wards, each of which is supplied with.its own dining room, in which the inmates are assembled three times a day. The ~WiininwsT>rth'eBeTtforaffTaff\ve!l“ftrlTi"the“ halls are all guarded with iron rods, and in the construction of the walls, frames, and doors every precaution has been, taken to remove everything by means of which the inmates might do harm to themselves. During the day time, those who are not vicious are allowed the free dom of their ward, but at night all are locked in their rooms. There are now nearly thirty inmates in the Asylum, and their number will doubtless he con siderably increased when the advantages of the institution are learned by the peo pie of our adjoining counties. Amongst the most notable cases arc Leonard. Hoflinau, George W., Tlzzard, Daniel Moler,- G.itliob Roichard, Jac )b Hen man and Wm. Boyd, in the mule ward 9ml Mrs. Lizzie Smith, Mary Wise, Nancy Engle,' Sarah Croft, “Big Sarah,” Sarah -Showers and Laura Lobuch, in the female ward. Several of of these patients 'were removed thither from the State Insane Asylum at Harrisburg. The wild eye, haggard fea tures and dishevelled hair oooti inform the visitor that be is within the' limits of an insane asy.um, There is one poor woman who stands, leaning her head against the wall, for hours,and never speaks a word to anybody. Her face is the very picture of sadness. is constantly employed In working her Un gers as if she were knitting, When commanded by thd keeper to look up and see If she knows her visitors, sh suddenly raises her head, and in a voice so unnatural that it startled you, she asks “who are you ?” A thlrS greets you with a wild laugh, and motions you to be quiet, while she points to the cradle where her infant is lying. There Is one old lady who amuses herself and renders it lively In her ward by roundly 'abusing the keeper and every one else. .She an nounces that she won't be imposed on and is determined to have her rights, if she to a woman. Among the men, the malady seems to take a different turn.— One always tears oil his shirt below the waist; another takes a malicious pleas ure in tearing up his bed and pillows, aud scattering the contents over Iholluor; a third imagines that he has lout the use of his limbs; a fourth sits and gazes for hours towards his former residence.- The institution Is under the Superin- tendency of, Mr. John Raul, who prom ises to make' a most efficient officer. After making a thorough Inspection of the asylum, we paid a (lying visit to the county Poor House—looked In at the “bummers’ ” room, where there were a .number of “revolvers” walling for their dinner. They runged in age from the gray haired, bottle scarred “veteran” to the mewling infant in the arms of a mother with bleared eye 6 and bloated visage. On the first floor arc the sleep ing apartments of the men ; on the sec ond those of the women, and also the nursery which was comfortably well fill ed with crying babies, and nursing mothers 'sihgiiigThut lullaby-wliicb Is the same all the world over, In paluce or in poor house. We*reached the dining room just as the bell rung for dinner,and saw the motley crew—while aud black male and female—the lame, the bait, the blind—file into the room aud take their places at the table. The dinner consisted of a substantial dish of turnips aud potatoes, with an abundance of good' fresh bread ;'aud if we may judge from the rapidity with which the tables were cleared, life at the poor bouse is condu cive to good appetites. We were gratifi ed to notice that a number of the paupers are employed iu macademizing the road . leading from town to the Poor House—a much needed improvement. . So much for a brief visit to the new Asylum and the county Poor House.— There is nO better evidence of the civili zation aud humanity of a people than the manner in which they take care of their poor. The poor, says the Good Master, ye have always with you—aud it is right that they should be kept In u manner which will render their days as happy as circumstances will permit. It is a source of gratification to see that cur county has done so much fur those who 'are not able to keep themselves, especi ally are we pleased to see the ample and suitable accomodations for the insane.— Iu this* connection we desire to notice that a bill appropriating $lO,OOO to this Institution was passed by the last Legis lature, but for some reason has never beeu approved by the Governor. So long.as the asylum at Harrisburg is filled to overflowing, it would certainly bo a measure of economy for the State to en courage local institutious such us this, which will readily accomodate the lusaue of this entire section of the State, where by a small annual appropriation they can , bo maintained ns cheaply as anywhere else. A New Street,—Some of the citizens of the East Ward are agitating a project to straighten and wall the Letort Spring from Soutlnto Noilh Street, and lay out a street thirty feet wide on either side of the stream. If the design can be carried out, it would make the handsomest street in town, and would soon be built up with substantial and elegant residences or useful manufactories. It is said tiie project can be carried out at trifling ex pense, and it is one worthy of considera tion. As it is now,the stream is of but little use to anybody, and the busi ness,of the Eastern portion of town de mands another street running parallel uith.Eastst. It could nowhere be laid out at leas coat and to better advantage than on either side of the banks of the Letort. With the stream straightened and cleaned, and a street thirty, or forty feet wide opened on either side, it would soon become oue of the most pleasant drives and promenades in town. We hope the mutter will at least elicit some discussion.' In another column of this issue will bo found a letter received by us from our friend, Mr. Wanamaker, of the celebra ted clothing, firm of Wanamaker & Brown. We take the liberty of pub lishing it, and very gladly speak the word he desires us to reierence to his great sale. u ltis an ill wind that blows no one any good,” they say, and here is another illustration,of the old proverb.’ If hard times have made business dull this Fall,'they have, In turn, made us this opportunity of getting a good sufy of clothes, ait least, at such a price as wq can command. We know many a good fellow who has been putting himself off without an overcoat this, winter, or a much needed pair of pants, or vest, be cause he thought he couldn’t afford it. All such will now go right for Wana mnker’s, and lay in a slock for the next few years, Wo infer that the sale is in tended to be sharp and quick, but the chance is one of those that inen u jump at,” and so we need no.t say a word to out readers about being in good time Trust a good country man for securing a bargain when he has a chance!

SOMETHING FOUBAUSAOE MAKERS.— The Commissioner of internal revenue has issued the following ridiculous deci sion, of interest to our butchers: The special tax ol butchers is composed exclu sively with respect to the selling of butchers' meat, and not for the prepara tion or manufacture for sale of thu same, and when any hutohe r, therefore, engages iu the manufacture or prepara tion for sale of any article, such uh sausa ges, minco pies, cured hums, etc., which have a separate and distinct commercial value iu the market as such, he should be regarded as a manufacturer within the meaning of the law, aud bo required to pay special tax as such, without refer ence to thu fact that he may have paid tax as a butcher. Woolen Goods.—Now that.the season haS arrived when fires are Indispensable to comfort, a word of precaution at the present time may avert the necessity in the future of recording some dreadful ac cident. The old maxim is iliut an “ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." Cotton dresses easily ignite from ranges, grates, furnaces, or stoves when in full blast, and in a large majority of coses with fatal result. Dresses made of wool en fabrics are not easily ignited and are uot apt to inflame unless there is some thing more-toinbustlble to feed on; tuerefore, children, in particular, should wear woolen clbthiug, and so should ol der persons whose domestic duties require them to bo about the household fires.

Wo may say In bobulf of the retiring gentlemen that they have proven them selves courtepus, efficient and faithful officers, aud have won for themselves many friends by the manner in which (hey have discharged the duties of their positions. The new Incumbents arc gentlemen of good qualifications, whose pleasure it will be to please, and we have no doubt they will fir their several offices to the entire satisfaction.of the community.

Look Out for Them.—Quite a num ber of ladies in adjoining counties, says an exchange, have been victimized by females who sold them ” Irish poplins,” which, on close examination, proved, to be cotton with a slight covering of silk. In some cises the edge was silk, but when raveled a little way, the silk dis appeared, cotton taking Us place.
