the late report of the "inspectors, while
what is en hand, though net valued at
" fabulous prices," we believe was over
valued in the report.
At the Children's Heme, the matreD,
Mrs. Hamaker met us and conducted "us
through the building and gave us the fol
lowing report of the inmates, 68 boys 24
girls (including one colored). Everything
relating te this institution betokens effi
cient management. The health of the in
mates is very geed, tncie ueing ai prebeui
net a single case of sickness. Mr. II. G.
Boek, foreman of the grand inquest, ap
propriately addressed the children.
We next visited the almshouse, which
is under the management of Mr. Jehn
Breck, and found it te contain 21G inmates,
1JJ3 men, 54 women and 17 children. In
the hospital, under the management of
Majer B. F. Cox, there are 237 inmates.
Nil" being in the insane department. Beth
institutions are neat and in excellent
condition, and seem te be well managed.
In the late report of the peer directeis,
we find that theic was expended for vege
tables upwards of a thousand dollars ; also
a large amount paid for the hauling of
stone. The grand inquest recommend that
the vegetables be raised by the inmates
and that the stone be hauled by the county
teams, thereby saving te the taxpayers
the amount of these expenditures.
At the suggestion of the court we ex
amined the large stock of suiplus tobacco,
adveitiscd by the prison inspectors te be
sold en Thursday, April 22d, 1830, and took
action in the matter, in the lollewmg reso
lution, a copy of which was handed te the

UDDICUZOOK'S CONFESSION.
Tlie Complete Story or a Terrible Crime.
Coin-piracy and Murder.
The readers of the Intelligencer aie
still familiar with the story of the terrible
Uddcrzoek-Goss murder near Pennington
ville, Chester county, some six years age ;
and of Udderzoek's trial and execution,
through the course of which it was devel
oped that the plot first was te pretend that
Gess was dead and get his assurance,
and when Gess persisted in turning up
Udderzoek brought him te Chester county
and murdered him. The evidence, though
circumstancial, was very conclusive)
but Udderzoek went te his death
with his lips scaled. The career of him
and Gess up te the night of the murder
was carefully traced in the evidence given
en tkc trial, but the details of the crime
itself were never before known. Te-day
the Herald publishes Udderzoek's full con
fession, attested by his counsel, J. F.
Pciduc, who says he gave it te him te
publish after a specified time, which has
new ensued. It describes fully the erigi
nal plot between him and Gess te cheat
the insurance companies, Gess's persistence
in reappearing, his suspicion of him, the
necessity efhim saving himself and linally
his resolve te murder Gess all as might be
dinwu from the testimony adduced en the
trial and substantially confirming it. The
newest and most interesting part of the
confession is that which relates te his kill
ing of Gess. He tells hew he resolved te
de it, substantially as he afterwards car
ried out the details of the crime. When
thei' get up into Chester county he had
great trouble te keep Gess fiem exposing
hiniFclf te persons who knew them. It
was het, and Udderzoek says he coaxed
Gess into the weeds te refresh themselves.
This he at last consented te de, as he
was grew ing weak ; he had been sick and
was getting sick again. We acceidingly
went te the weeds and sat down by a
stream and Gess went te sleep. This was
my time ; but, as I looked at him, my
hcart failed me. Several times I tried te
summon courage te de it, but I could
net. I hadn't it in me. If I had
only had a bottle of whisky with me
te nerve me up I would have done it
and probably have avoided detection.
But I then concluded that my best plan
was te take him up te Sam Kheades's and
give him something in his whisky and
quietly bury him. I knew Kheadcs had
always borne rather a bad character and
would, I thought, de anything for money.
I concluded I would take the risk and if he
re fused te help me I thought my sister
his wife would beaitl him for a while un
til something could be done.
They did net get as far as Rhe.wls's, but
stepped at Udderfoek's mother's. Xcxt
day he went ever te Rhoads, but the latter
was suspicious of him and when Udder Udder Udder
zeok talked about the strange man with
money dying at Rhoads's house he was
scared. He finally consented that the
stranger be brought te his heuse te stay I
awhile. The livery team was hired at
Penningtenville te bring Gess ever, but
en his way for him Udderzoek says he
again began te get feaaful that he would
reveal the true condition of things and he
resolved te kill him. That terrible ride
from Jennerville te Penningtenville and
its tragic end Udderzoek thus describes :
The evening was warm and we drove
rather slowly. Gess was swearing about
being brought into such a country place
and was complaining. I was rather dis
posed te quarrel with him, and going up
we quarreled considerably. When we get
above Cochranville te a weeds I had no
ticed in the morning, and which I
had selected for the purpose, I drove
in among some chestnut sprouts. I
did net think Gess would notice where
we were going, but he did, and
exclaimed, " Where are you taking me !
arc you going te kill me ?" I at that in
stant stepped the horse, threw down the
lines and putting my left arm around his
head covered his mouth with my left hand ;
witli the right I drew out the knife I had
made at Baltimore for the purpose and cut
his threat. It was the work of an instant.
He made no noise and very little resist
ance, for I held him like a vice. The
bleed, of course, ran ever everything;
he bled awfully, until, finallly, his body
becoming weak, I released my held, and it
doubled down upon the bottom of the
wagon, smashed the fient of the dash
board ever and bent the irons. Wliile I
was holding him, until he bled, te be sure
my work was completed, I stabbed him in
the heart, and this accounts for the numer
eus wounds found upon the body. Heavens,
hew I felt for his lieait with tnat long,
slender blade.
When he was senseless I took him out of
the wagon and laid him en the ground and
went back with the wagon te a stream of
water we had passed. Here I washed the
wagon thoroughly, having first taken out
the oilcloth that was in the bottom. IaUe
washed the bleed eif myself. I had black
pantaloons en, and the bleed and water
did net show en them The worst was
en my shirt, but I took it elf and washed
the stains out of that, and it only looked
like a sweated shirt. After washing the
wagon I was very much exhausted and and
drank the balance of the whisky in the
bottle, fixed up the dashboard of the
wagon as best I could, and took the wagon
back te Penningtenville. Alter leaving
the wagon I went and sat down en a plat
form near the railroad, intending te rest a
few ininiitas,but fell asleep, and woke with
a stait for fear it was nearly morning. I
don't knew hew long I had slept, but I
henied up and started back. I had seen a
spade at Kheades's when I had been theic
that day, standing in the stable. I stepped at
Kheades's, get this and proceeded en my
way. My idea was te se disfigure the body
as te prevent I'lciitilicatien it it should Ue
found. " in took the clothes off it,
cut it u, .is it was found, and battered the
head with the spade. The digging was
very hard. The ground was dry and theic
were se many loots that I had great diffi
culty in digging a hole te bury the body
in. And here is where I made a fatal mis
take, for if I had only dug that grave a
little deeper no one would ever have
known.
Altar burying the body I made a fire
and burned the bloody clothes, horse cover,
&c. By this time it was daylight and I
started te Gennerville. I stepped at Coch
ranville and get my breakfast, then went
en and stayed with my mother for a few
days and then went back te Baltimore.
Gos-'s ring was pulled off in some way in the
wagon, and I did net notice the less until I
was searching ler his trinkets. He had
with him the ratchet screw driver, some
old and curious coins and various ether
things. These I took with me, and, with
the knife with which I did the deed, drop
ped them into the Susquehanna river as I
crossed the bridge en my return te Balti
more. This is the true story, and I am sure
these who read it will believe that I would
never have gene into this if I had
foreseen the necessity for murder. But
the killing of Gess became a matter of ne
cessity for my own preservation. I tried
this last chance and have Jlest. I desire te
say that I and I alone am responsible for
the killing ; no one else knew anything
about it, and net a soul except myself,
W. S. Gess and A. C. Gess knw anything
about the conspiracy.
rUJi AND FKOLIC.
C.irncress's Minstrels at the Opera Heuse.
Fulton opera house was crowded last
night by one of the most brilliant assem
blages that has gathered there during the
season. It was literally an ovation te the
old-time favorites, Mr. J. L. Carncross and
the superior troupe of artists in the min
strcl line of which he has long been the
head. The enthusiastic approbation that
greeted every feature of the pregramme,
showed hew keenly the feast of fun
was enjoyed by the immense audience,
which occupied every scat in the house
up-stairs and down, while "standing
room only" was eagerly taken posses
sion of by such as failed te secure better
accommodations. The performance was a
vast improvement upon the troupe's last
annual visit here, when we took occasion
te animadvert somewhat severely upon
the disappointing entertainment. The
fun last night iau fast and furious from
the outset, and never once flagged until
the curtain descended en the ridiculous
p.u-ade scene in the closing burlesque,
'Grant's Kcceptien," in which the
appearance of the "Silent Mau en
Heiseback" provoked screams of
laughter. Among the features of the
pregramme were Mr. Carncross's singing
of "The Blue Alsatian Mountains," which,
though old, is never sung as Carncross
sings it ; the audience listened entranced
and of course encored him. His voice is
as wonderfully sweet and flexible as ever.
The ballad singing of Messrs. Walz and
Rudelph was also much admired, and the
funny songs and sayings of Matt
AVhcclcr and Ilughey Dougherty, who
occupied the cud chairs, kept every
body in a ferment of mirth. " The Skidmerc
Guards" made a capital hit, and the " En
chantment ballet" was grotesquely funny.
Murphy and Morten did a pretty sand jig,
E. M. Hall picked his banjo very cleverly,
and Mr. Mettler has a number of new and
original imitations. The "Hardback
Family, " Murphy, Morten, Griffin
and Rice, astonished everybody
by their high kicking and the reckless and
promiscuous manner in which they foil
and rolled ever the stage. The sketch of
" The Black Students " was very funny,
and the orchestra is entitled te an extra
word of commendation, the overtures be
ing exceptionally fine. On the whole it
was a thoroughly satisfactory perform
ance. May Hep.
On Monday evening the Lancas'er club K. of
P. will give a hop in Roberts's hall, and a fine
time is expected, as the management is in
geed hands.
