No sooner had Hauer permitted the
esign of taking the life of his brothers•
n•law to enter his mind, than he began
plot their destruction by such means,
s would enable him to enjoy the fruits
f his crime. He made repeated at.
empty to effect their death: by p o i son
nd otherwise. Peter being the young.
r, and more ignorant, and being besides,
xceedingly superstitious, he persuaded
im on one of casion, that if he would
tand upon the upper loft of the barn,
living a rope with one end fastened to
joist and the other in a noose around
is neck, he could then see where there
as much gold, which his (Hauer's)
rother Solomon, who was to be tied in
e same way, would bring him. The
xporiment was tried, and had the rope
sed on the occasion been strong
nougli to sustain Peter's weight, }lau
r would have had every•reason to felie 7
tale himself upon the stlecessof 1143
ngenious and daring expedient. FOr.
unttely it broke, and Peter was reserv.
d to pass safely through the fine' at
ettlpl made upon his and his brother's
ife.
The principal parties engaged rialhe
murder were John Hauer, Charles
Patrick Donagan, Peter Me: -
'Donogliy, and Francis Cox. So ingeni
ously was it planned, that if it had not
been for the confessions of II suer, tiod
McManus and one other circumstance,
the persons engaged in it would proha.
lily have escaped punishment altoge"ther.
I say, probably, for it is not to be eon
cealed, that all the parties, except
being Irishmen, and the murder
ed party a German, the popular excite
nwnt, which was very great, had its in
-11,,,mee at that early day on the jury ,
. the
bar, and even the court. It was agreed
wrung them that on the night on Which.,
tlw murder was to take place, they
shmdd all sleep at different places, and
yrl arrange matters that each could prove
TI alibi. Cox and McManus went to
tioig(!r's Tavern, more than four mile's
(nun the scene or the crime, and went
to bed together at an early hour. Geig.
pr however, saw him leave the house
Handestinely and becoming alarmed at.
his absence, made search for in
Cox assisted, but manifesterkno
rti(tular interest in the result. Whilst
he wore some of Cox's clothes.
/t had been intended that Cox should
N.V.: the alibi. If Itauer's plan had
brpii strictly followed, this part of the
woulll have been absent.—
requested a man to sleep, not on
ly in his house,. hut in the 'same room.
Thii man could n - ot Say whether . Hauer
had been absent or not, as he slept pro
foundly all night. .D'unagan, went to
his usual plaCe of residence some three
mils distant from Sliitz!s farm, i and . the
persons with whom he hoarded, had no
doubt that he was in the house all night.

f.h. , uld think !well exeeffsive credulity impossible,
verbatim, the testquony given by Peter
IS'hertz, an the trial, viz:4
.
PETE ft SR CETZ, S WORN:. ; Three years ago next
I.arrest, my brother Francis went to haul stones
for the new church et Shaelferstown. Wheu he.
rano: Immo be could not - unhitch his horses. He
thought the rest of us were net so sick, that we
oil i gl. t do it; mid he sent for us, to the field, where
we went to rake oats U. feed the horses,-but we
,
i A . ould nut do it. Hoffman and the girl that-is
i.nw his wife, and two other girls, and Hoffman's
loin John, were in the field. We were all so sick .
we vomited all the time. Hoffman was nut quite
so sick as the rest of us, and lie fed the horses,—
The vomiting continued all that day; Rod the
next day we felt very weak. Hoffman's wife, who
was then a maid In the louse, cooked the break
fast that day; it wee coffee, brand and butter. We
never had bean se affected before. I don't know
if any strange person had -been about the house
that day. Hauer ofteW eamo there about that
I hue; I cannot tell how often ; but be went about
the house whenever ho pleased..
Last fall was a year I had.-hired myself to Ja
cob Sheets:, my father's broter. at Tulpelmelcen.
]inner, with whom I then lived, - h'iinl.goue uverilo
. Fraueis Sheets's. When he itutnielatek, I told
hint I was going on Sunday to Jana. Shea tes.—
On Sunday It rained and I•conld , not go. Hauer
thou told inc I should not go, that Ito would show
me a way how I should get a purse every morn
ing, thnt would have five doubloons in it. That
.lie himself could not get it, lint that I could. I
linirl to Heuer that I could nut get it. Hauer then
swore unmercifully that I could; and be told me
he must fetch drops from Lebanon. Be went on
Monday up to Lebanon. When he came back
again he said one sort was "wiederkomme drops,"
the other I don't know what it was he called it..--
" Ile had three bottles, one was bigger than the
nther two, which were but small phials. Hauer
said, now we will try something. I said, I did
not wish to do it, I would rather not. Heuer told
me I should try it, he would be bail to me, noth
ing should happen to me. Hauer told me that
Stouffer and Bumborger (they were the executors
rind testamentary guardians of Peter) wanted to
bind me out, that they. were et his house, and
I: - wanted to get me, end had told him they,would
knee me dead or alive. He scared me se much
that I hid myself; because he said they came ev
ery day. I told limier he lied. He swore again
unmercifully that he did not. I then kept myself
concealed still. Then Hauer sold, we will try to
- get the puree; and he drunk some of the drops;
and I drank some of them too. He drank out of
the big bottle, which he seld were "wiederkoname
Trope;" I drank out of the same, I drank also
rut of the two small phials, but I don't knowll
llauer drank any out of them or 110t4 I did: not'
see him do it; then Hauer said he would not try
that night, he thought it tras-not worth while. :
Some time after this, we went together down'to
Wolfersherger's barn; Solomon Hauer went along
1 .iN tit us. John Hatter said, if we would not does
ii'. said us ho would give us:an unmerciful beating;
if are would not tie ourselves up as he told us, he
troel.l :dime us some other things„ He then told
'tam. ire Mlle, tie ourselves-up on the loft with hal
. term. naiad our n Otte, and fasten the rope to the
joist; that then he could . tie that one who was,to :i
bring the purse, in the same way ; when I had fi.:.
eil myself, and fastened the rope to the joist, Sol
omon told me he would hold me; (Peter always.
told me that Ire was also to hold a bottle of the
"wieder-komme drops" in his hand, and look on
it,) and thou he gave me ft push down. The rope
was round my neck; the end fast to the joist
above; the rope was not long enough to, reach to
the floor; the rope broke and I fell dqwn on the.
threshing floor; the rope Ives thick as my little
finger; (Peter's little finger was larger than the.
middle finger of blest men,) and it was doubled;
it, bad been used 1111.4 plough. line, and to tie the:
horse; I did not atte.the men with the purse; - the
rope was doubled renixikmy neck ; the joist is elev
en or twelve feet.ahilve,the threshing floor. The
rope took the Alder my deck, but did not hurt
me much; Solomon said he would tie a rope round
his neck, but he did not do it; seen as Solomon
Pushed me down he jumped down and ran off; I
`went home to John Hauer's house; in about fif
teen minutes after John Hauer and Solomon Hau
er came in together; they said they were very sorry
that it liappened so that'all went wrong; after that
Solomon asked me to go towards Bethlehem with
him, where be lived- rifoldn Hauer told mei . should
go along with him, thatitemight not be found out
that the skin wan °trey neck; John Hauer often,
told me I should.bnif nothing of it, and Ipromised
him I would not; when I came from Bethlehem,
I hired myself to my brother Francis, andlittuer
again told me not to tell; I then lived with Fran
cis almost avear, till he was murdered.
i' ' ' ' ' - ' -• • -
Upon his arrest; Itast'et. investigation
it was found that he picot
,in an inner
room, tilit'alt had' a 'Wi'ndoW that".could
not be opened, and but one door which
opened on the familysleaping room
It was found, however, that he 'had cut
out one of the 164. 4fsuch a way as
not to be easily eitorvitd, and which he
could yet readily and replace.
A slighto6wAta,difillen during the day,
and his fent:stipE4'etie traced to and,
fro, on hi .Way to lig !road, It is not
known where Megtrhogity passed the
night. The-Partits 411:rendezvoused on
horseback at the:er:let the lane which
led up to the hotise. , . 1 '
From the evidence , on',the trial, it is
very hard to say who actually, committed
the murder,. but Mr.Shitz alWays told
me, that although 'he'could not swear to
the fact, he theught `that McManus and
Donegan were' the tWii men who entered
his room. ' -McManus,- McDonaghy and
Donegan all contended that they otilyi,
had knowledge that the murder was to,
be committed, but took no actual part
in it. Be -that - as it 'may, two of the
persons mentioned, entered the house of
the two brothers, about nine o'clock at
night,, and lighted a canle in theltitch
te
en. The noise - made i ntering iiiiak

sure, they turned on the t. .woman and
boys, but the light heingAkirt put out,
these were enabled to eeci-eut of the
room . unitarined, and fled to the barn
and other outhouses, wheie they hid
themselves. Having again :tilt their car 1;'
d; - le, they new proceeded t4the rower of
Peter Sheetz, which had liAit 'one iltior.
They were both armed with axes. Pe
ter had been awakened bLthe noise'and
lay trembling with superskous terror,

window, the other man making -a blow
at him as he passed. out and giving if . .m
a severe wound ,orrene .'of 'his postern
ors. He fled to, the barn where he re
mained concealed until morning.
Hauer 'arid.. Mc Manus . confessed :the
murder,;but . viitit - such varying circtrin
stances, that except as to the main fact,
their stories are entitled to little credit.
The circumstance which bore har dest
against- AlcManns was, that it was ,his
pistol with which Francis Sheeti had
been shot, that weapon havingTheen
found in the room'where the murdb-141s
committed. McManus charged •EitilleT
- and McDonaghy with doing the - hiida er
whilst he held the horses. Hauer's con
fession was made to the Judges when
firit.arraidned. He stated that McMan
us and IdcDonaghy committed the niur
deg he instigating it,and promising them
thd large reward of eleven hundiied
viands. Hauer stood mute when again
indicled, and pretended insanity to the
last4yeying off the clothing -that was
put.:itionltitn, and remaining in a Con
dition-9f beastly filthiness, impossible
to be dercribed, until his execution.—
Hauer:arist McManus were the only two
convicted,',' McDonaghy was not even
tried, so doubtful was the case of the
Commonwealth considered, without.the :
confession of .Hauer and McManus,
whielf_would * have had little weight a
gainst him, as there was no other or at
least very little evidence implicating
him with the crime.
Hon. Joseph Joh& Henry was Presi
dent Judge at the;, time of tile trials.—
The Associate Judge on the Bench Was
our fernier fellow-citizen Hon. John
Gloninger. At the first trial in which
McManus and McDonogity were charg
ed as principals, and Hauer, his wife,
Donegan, McDonough and Cox as acces
'sories before the 1'30 . , the names of the
jurors were Michael Urich,' , Samuel Stur
geon, Daniel Longenecker, Henry Me-
Corrnich,Ohed Fahnestoeic,John Stoner,
John Boyd, John Blattenberger, Wm.
Snodgrass, Henry Stoner, John Gray,
and. Samuel Finney. .McManus was tri.
ed alone at the Oyer and L Terminer in
1798, and convicted. Mr. Montgomery
and Mr. Patterson wae coin:seller t be
prisoner.; Mr. Hall and Mr. Smith for
the Commonwealth. Hauer, Donegan,
and Cox were then put upon trial,--
Counsel for the Commonwealth, Messrs.
Hall, Smith, and Henry ; Mr. Duncan,
Mr. Elder, Mr. Laird, Mr. Geo. Fisher,
and Mr. Clymer for the prisoners. In
both instances the "counsel for the pris
oners were assigned by the court. The
legal arguments are Very able and inter
esting,'some of the points made being
identical with those raised by. Mr. Web
ster, on the 'trial of the Knapps, but no
lawyer - ,of the present day would dare to
pursue the course adopted: after. his con
fession in declining 'to go to the jury
upon the testimony in. Hauer's case.—
Mr. Hopkins, Mr. Elder and Mr. Clymer
argued the case of. Donegan and Cox' to
the jury with great and successful ability.
The jurors were Thos. McElhany, Sam'!
StOrgeon, John Blattenberger, Henry
McCormick; Sam'! Cochran,Win. Crane,
John Wilson, jun'r., John Norton, John
Parthimer, James Johnion, Harry Ful
ton and John Snodgrass. The names of
McElhany and .Parthimer, on this Jury,
awaken singular associations in connec
tion with two dreadful murders commit
ted in Dltipliin county, for which men of
that_ name were tried and acquitted with
in the recollection of many of the read •
ers- of these sketches. On a Sunday
'evening the jury' rendered a verdict
against Hauer of guilty of murder in the
first degree, and g not
,guilty as to Done
ganil and Cox Elizabeth Hauer and,
Hugh McDonough were then put upon
trial. The Commonwealth offered no
evidence and they were acquitted. Mc-
Donoughy was discharged on habeas
corpus. "It was-not," sayS the reporter,
"thought prudent to try and acquit him,
from a full persuasion of his guilt, and
with an expectation that sufficient evi
deuce might hereafter convict him."__
No stich consequence however followed,
nor was he ever, if guilty, brought to
justice.
McManus and Hauer were hung, in
pursuance of their sentence on the 14th
Julyr9S. McManus persisted to the
last,:in his statement that he only held
the herses at the end of the lane. His
youth, intelligence, and great personal
beauty, procured him: much sympathy,
when time had to Settle extent obscured
the atrocity of his 'guilt, and the day of
-his shameful and terrible death drew
near. Hauer never spoke from the day
he`was arraigned,'ind it was supposed,
that he was deprived of his speech by
terror and remorse. In other respects
he behaved like a madtnan, and severe
ly bit and mangled one man who': en
clesvored to clothe his person.
When one considers all the circum
stances of this awful tragedy, the varied
passions, which mixed in' the drama,
(for scarcely any was wanting,) the grad
ual ascendancy which evil thoughts ob
tained over the minds of the proniinent
actors, the terrible denouement, and the
not less terribie punishment, it presents
one;pf the most striking examples, how
far the romance of truth excels that of
fiction. Few events, excited and agita
ted the public mind more. From few
sources can so many useful reflections
%...drawn, as when we contemplate in
`HAS:bloody hiStOry, the havoc which mi.
perstition, avarice, lust and cruelty may
occasion when left by ignorance to riot

the great American Circus Co., under the management
of Messrs. Sands, Nathans A. Co., gave their first public
performance in this city, in their spacious amphitheatre,
which, by permission of the city authorities, they have
erected on the parade ground on the Common. The - first
part of the programme introduced the splendid stud of
horses attached to the stables of this establishment, in
various feats: usual in performances of this nature, which
were performed in a manner never excelled by any com
pany in this city. •
The horsemanship of Masters Nathane and Sands,,and
of Madame Brower, elicited a storm' of approbation as.
hearty as it was deserved. The posturing of Mons. Fen;
ranti and children, and the gymnastic performances of
the German Brothers were feats of strength and skill al
most beyond any conceivable power of the human frame,
and constituted a marked feature in the performances.
The wonderful elephants of Mona. La Grange decidedly
