It was decid ed by a vordiet of not guilty and county for costs. l'om. vs. Henry Conner and Leah Con ner, assault with intent to kill. Christopher Corbet, the principal witness, alleged that Conner and his wife displayed threatening appearance before Min, and that he was in danger of his life from them. The ruse was very amusing from the original replies and queer remarks of the witness. The Court not considering the charge sustained, a ver dict of not gully was rendered. Corn. vs. Isaac Bosley, colored. He plead guilty to stealing part of amount of meat charged, but claimed that he was not guilty of larceny, as he was only persuaded into assisting another person in the act. The Court decided, however, that a " nigger would steal," and sentenced him to nine months' imprisonment, three months on each offunee. THURSDAY MORNING.-COM. vs. Dr. Beschler, false pretenses—getting a rooster for the purpose of improving the breed. The case excited a great deal of merriment among the spectators, us many things were said by the witnesses which created much laughter. It was finally disposed of by a verdict of not guilty, and two-thirds of the costs of prosecution to be laid on the defend ant, the other third on the complainant, Michael Strausner. Com. vs. Frederick Shultz, surety of the peace. The wife of the defendant swore that ho had threatened to kill her. Her character was testified . against by the de fence, but her "kartikter she tried to prove, 'With great indignation, was very good. This case also afforded many inter esting incidents to the looker-out for fun. Shultz was ordered to pay costs, and give bail for two hundred dollars to keep the peace for three months. Coat. vs. Chtherine Brown, larceny; ver dict not guilty. Jno. Miller plead guilty to stealing an overcoat and pair of gloves from A. J. Steinman, Esq. He was sentenced to six months' imprisonment in the Lancaster county prison. Geo. Nult plead guilty to stealing a piece of cloth from Jno. Myer's store, and was sentenced to six months' imprisonment. AFTERNOON SESSION.—Conn. vs. Abra ham Sellers, fornication and bastardy with Sarah J. Barlow. Found guilty ; the usuul sentence of maintenance of child, &e., passed. Com. vs. 'William Geisy, larcony—the stealing of two chickens. Verdict of guilty, and sentence of six months imprisonment Cont. vs. Bernard McAllister, assault and battery upon Horner and Agnes I tur ner. Verdict guilty, and sentenced to pay a fine of five dollars and costs on both sides. Corn. vs. Rebecca Clark, perjury. She charged William Wood, rt white man, with fornication and bastardy with her. Strange to say, however, the child was a mullatto, though the mother was white. Perhaps she might have been chased by a black man. She plead guilty, however, to the charge of perjury, and the Court sentenced her to pay a fine of fifty dollars and under go imprisonment for one year in the jail. She acknowledged finally that Scipio Afri canus Green, the hero of a previous case, and a regular Don Juan it seems, was the father of her little " yellow.pine." This case of miscegenation showed that the wo man had no respect for herself or her color, and was in the habit of receiving "hush money" from the men in the neighborhood. David Paul Brown, Esti., of Philadelphia, was admitted to practice in our Courts, in order to try the case of Lackey, committed for murder. FRIDAV.—The whole day was devoted to the case of Lackey alias Ingraham, for mur der. The case did not excite much interest outside of tke legal fraternity, judging from the few spectators present. The Clerk of the Court called a jury, but a good deal of difficulty was apparent, as many were challenged and .the panel was exhausted. Finally the following names were obtained, and the trial proceeded : Henry Gorrecht, city; William Mathiot, Columbia; Martin Lindeniuth, East Donegal ; Robert Scott, .Little ; Samuel Boyd, Drumore ; Cornelius Roland, Bast Earl ; John Patton, Salisbury ; Samuel N.

All the testimony being delivered, the Counsel for the ( !mullion wealth and for the Defence hold a brief conference, and agreed to submit the whole case to the jury under the direction of the Court, the evidenco in support of the defence being so overwhelm ing and conclusive that this course was deemed, on all sides, right and proper. Judge Hayes, after expressing the ap probation of the Court, proceeded to instruct the jury, substantially: That an essential ingredient in the crime of murder is malice, without which, though the killing or de struction of life is etlbcted, the crime of murder is not committed. implies controlling mind and will. Where there is not mind or will to govern, the perpe trator is not accountable any more than a machine would be. hence, insanity is a recognized legal defence in all prosecutions for criminal acts, and by express statute, in the trial for murder ; and whenever, in such a case, the insanity of the. prisoner on trial is proved, the jury, in acquitting, shall say that he is not guilty, on the ground of in sanity. After • listening with marked at tendon, as the jury had done, to the detail ed statements of the many intelligent wit nesses, who had been on the stand, giving a full history of the prisoner from his early infancy, of his mitterings, his infirmities, both bodily and mental, the jury Faust be supposed to be entirely prepared to pro nounce upon the question of his incapacity, intellectually and morally, to c,Nommit the crime charged in the indictment. The Judge remarked, that in all his experience he had never known a similar defence so well sus tained by the testimony. Here were the parents of the young man, who had given a minute relation of the diseases which had left his body a wreck and ruined his mind and memory, and had deprived him of the power of diAcriminating between truth and falsehood or right and wrong; and three intelligent physicians who confirmed their statements in the most essential particu lars; one of them having been .the family physician for thirty years and intimately acquainted with the defendant from his birth, another having known him since 1843, and frequently attended him in his indispositions, and the third having lived in the same village since 1850, and been called in also to" attend this young man in his it ness; all giving many instances of his want of reason, and- expressing their perfect Conviction that he was. and is of unsound mind. In addition to these were the Rev. Mr. Whaley; minister of the con gregation to which his family belonged,and Edwin Griffin,. Esq., a long time intimate friend ofthe , family; who have testified to Ada and' eipresiionli of the defends'nt;which left no doubt on their mipd of _his ,mental and moral Obliiinity. , ;-Tedittanour has also been given by many . witnesses, of his sin gular conduct and' eohirersett . ilbtee`h - e cattle to. Lancaster, 'evincing to, .those nit neßses that he was of unsound mind, that he had no correct idea of what he was do ing or saying. Of those who had carefully attended to the evidence, whether members of the jury Or persons standing arqund the bar, the Court presumed that there was no one who entertained a doubt of the fact that the pris onerhad not the 'degree of intellect, moral sense or control of the will before or at the time this act was done which should ren der him amenable tojustice for this im puted crime. And if this was the conviction of the jury, the Court were of opinion that they should find the defendant not guilty on the ground of insanity. The indictment was passed to the jury, who immediately rendered a verdict in ac cordance with this direction. - The Court then ordered Robert H. Lack ey, father of the defendant, to giye a bond to the Commonwealth in the sum of one thousand dollars for the use of all persons interested, to restrain him from the com mission of any offence, by seclusion, de. This was done under the direction of the District Attorney, and the prisoner was surrendered to the care of his parents and friends. REPORT OF GRAND JURY. To the Honorable, the Jutlge4 of the Court of Quarter Sessibus of the aunty of Lan- The Grand Inquestbf the county for the present term of the Court respectfully re port that they have acted on eighty-two bills presented to them by , the District At torney ; seventy-two were found true bills ; ten were ignored. Twenty-one out of the eighty-two were for violation of the liquor license laws. The reprehensible manner in which so large a class of people engage in the unlawful sale of liquor merits the severest condemnation of the whole com munity, and we urge the future prosecution of all such persons who for filthy litcre seek to entice, especially the young, to their haunts of drunkenness. The Grand Jury, by special invitation of the Directors of the Poor to visit the houses under their charge, spent the greater part of Thursday at the Poor House and Hos pital. The former they found in excellent condition. neat, clean, and the whole inter nal and domestic arrangements in as per fect a state as can be expected in such an establishment. We bear cheerful testimony to this filet in behalf of Mr. Spielman, the present steward of the place. The hospital, under the charge of Mr. Steinhouser, we also found, as far as it is in his power to do so, in the sante condition as the Poor House ; but we would do violence to our own feelings to be silent as to the condition into which many of the inmates have to be placed by the defects of the building, mainly as regards its •ven illation. In the name of humanity, and the precepts which are taught by religion, we call upon the people of our county, and the Cc antnis sioners who are elected by them, to lift these human unfortunates out of their bod ily wretchedness, and provide a place for them, where there is at least common com thrt. We are aware that former Grand Jurors have brought this subject to the at tention of the Court and to the people of the county, and we also know that the sub ject was passed over and not heeded, by reason of the experience which the tax payers of the county had of the expensive manner in which county buildings are gen era Ily constructed. In it free consultation with the Directors of the Poor, the following propositions are approved of by a majority of the present body. The present farm belonging to the Poor House contains '22,S acres. This tract for perfect farming is considered too large ; it Is therefore recommended to sell, of Ihe most inconveniently located part, about 50 acres, leaving 151) acres for farm. The pres ent high price of land would realize a sum which would go far to pay for the erection of a hospital building.

We also visited the County Jail and here by express our satisfaction it the order, cleanliness, and perfect system which is displayed in the management of the prison. The recent escape of a prisoner, and near escape of snottier, has developed the fact that the flooring of the cells in the' lower- 1 story is completely rotted, making it int possible safely to confine a vicious prisoner on said floor. Immediate steps should be taken to remedy this defect in a substantial manner. Our thanks are due, and are hereby expressed for kindness and atten tion to our body by Mr. Shirk, the keeper of the prison. In conclusion, the Grand Jury return to the Court, the District Attorney (111.1 :`4llerilf their thanks for ibrbearance and kindness shown them during the present term. FR A N CIS W.

What we want are facts on the mune of a respon sible party. NVOIITI7 N ATE ACC DEN T.—We regret to learn that our young friend Washington F. Hambright, met with a serious accident at Worcester, Massachusetts, On Thursday evening last, while at his way to rejoin his vessel, the De Soto, now lying at the Ports mouth (N. II.) Navy Yard. The 'train had stopped at the depot about J o'clock in the evening, and he left his seat to obtain a drink of water. Before he reached the cars again, they were in motion. Hurriedly grasping the guards, to swing himself up, his right foot struck a basket that the ion doctor had carelessly placed upon the low est step, and was thus diverted under the wheel which passed directly over it, crush ing the foot so badly as to burst open a strong calf skin loot from the toe to the in step. The sole of the boot is also deeply in: dented by the rail, showing that the weight which passed over it must have been, very great. It was fortunate that he happened to be wearing a pair of booLs of this kind or his foot would have been crushed beyond the hope of saving it. As he retained his hold upon the guards, he succeeded in drawing the tbot back before the second wheel passed over it. Tt was immediately swollen so greatly that it- was necessary to use the lan cet to prevent its bursting. The physician summoned, desired to amputate it, but his patient preferred "waiting awhile," and, after a day's delay in 'Worcester, took the cars for home, keeping down intlamation as much as possible by the use of cold water,- and assisted from car to car by persons aboard the train. Dr. John L. Atlee, Sr., is in charge of the case, and it is to be hoped that Iva May succeed in bringing the patient through, without any amputations. Mr. H. had already served for eight months on board the De Soto, cruising off our southern coast and the neighboring is lands of the West Indies, and had 'been promoted to the position of " yeoman," on board his vessel. HE; received an honora ble discharge about the first of July, with the promise of a better position should he return for another cruise, and it 'WM on his return as we have said, that he met with this unlucky accident.— Tuesday's Expre.vs. DROWNED.—John M. Frantz, son of Rev.. Christian 'Frantz, of East Lampeter town ship, was drowned in the Conestoga, a short distance below Wabank, on WednesdaY evening week. Ho was on a visit to his brother, Jacob M. Frantz, in Lancaster -township, from which place .he and two other young men went to the creek to bathe. They crossed in a boat to the left bank of the stream. Frantz entered the water in advance of his companions, and after swim ming but a short distance made signs of distress, and before assistance could be rendered, sunk to rise no more alive. The deceased was a single man; and aged'about twenty-five years. PASSED THEOIMIL—The Keystone Club of Philadelphia, accopipanied. by.

The Devil stood on the.Cnpitol steps, And clang'd his brazen bell; "Oh, yes!" said he, "your otihrings bring, To the mighty Monarch of 'Hell!" "Bring hither In crowds, the souls of men, Bring hither bodies and souls; The Earth is mine-my tribute t •iatm, My lawful tithes and tolls." "Come bow your neeka to my pled nt yoke, Come worship me, your king: I shall ransack Hell for. your fit reward, And straight the guerdon bring." And the Devil leer'd, as he look'd around, And grinn'd a ghastly' grin, "Ah! the Wolves, and the Goats, have heard , my voice! See the Parsons tumbling In r And hissing, and puffing, came the horde, As vipers seeking the sun, As obscene vultures seek the field, When the bloodylight is done! Each, throttling each, in devout approach, Their clamors rise and swell; As devils eager to snatch a soul, New-born to the horrors of Hell ! In the van came Abe, the clownish king, With drafts, full half a score; And chuckling gleefully, made his Joke, "Five hundred thousand more!" "I have made the land to mourn,' " The rivers to flow with gore And yet, to serve then, the work goes on. Five hundred thousand morel" And some came clad in Bishop's robes, Gnashing their teeth with rage, And they shouted "Blood," with a burning thirst, • That Blood could not assuage. And Gospel bullies, in sumbre gear, In black, and in sober grey, Came, foaming with rage and direst hate, As Tigers, seeking their prey. And they cursed, and writhed, like imps of Forgetting their rot" of prayer; And the Devil sinlrd, for he knew full well, That his ablest aids were there. And a bevy of Harlots, in rich array, From the Treasury carne forth, And paid their court to the sable king Singing his praise and worth. Shouted the praise oC the great flullhon ! Worshipp'd his vulgar queen, And the Satyrs, and Fawns of the Treasury With songs and sounds obscene. A tinsei'd soldier told, how he, When the day had heen lost and won, Had bidden his negro cohorts slay His'prisoners—every one! Father. otTer'd his idiot boy, To the Moloch of the day, . - Led his poor child, a saerCriee, A bid for the Devil's pay !. A mothet clutch'd the tiny throat Of the babe upon her breast, That the Father might have one tie the less To his home, and peaceful rest. A Father told, how he had sold His sons—llls flesh and blood, Had driven them to tile carnage (bill], And the I pronounced it "good I" Ah Hat" Snit! the Devil," hut this is work, I Intl glad to see it come; It minds me much of the carnivals, .

Oh, Abe, Inv son!" quoth the ebon fiend, "Thou infst served me passing well; Thou shalt tell the use thy - Jokes obscene, In the murky circles of Hell."
