f'oi•trr Pitoc m:Drsos.—Our report
Wednesday of lust week while the ease of
the Coat. vs. Catherine Schaum, for assault
and battery, was in progress. 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. Eby, Mount Joy
Borough ; Levi Planck, Carniirvon ; Hiram
Evans, Carriarvon ; Rudolph Williams,

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. The Directors esti
mate that it house sufficient ibr all purposes
can be erected for the sum of 520,000 if all
t)...traraiicince of style and jubbilog of a
3 Tivellingnoture is avoided. Upon the above
conditions of cost, the undersigned recom
mend the sale of the alcove amount of land
and the erection of buildings as soon its it
can be be consistently done. The Grand
Jury return their thanks to the Directors of
the Poor, to Mr. Spielman and to Mr. Stein
houser for their kind attention while they
visited their place.
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.

We, the undersigned members of the
Grand Inquest, respectfully beg leave to
dissent from the report now presented, so
far as regards the building of a new Hos
pital at present, in consequence of the fi
nances of the county; also, against the sell
ing of any part of the lands belonging to
the Poor-I louse farm, al this time; but we
would recommend that the grave-yard at
tached to the Poor-I louse he kept in a clean
and respectable manner, and not allow
hogs and cattle to lie running over it as is
and has been the case,

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.

A VISION.
BY DIX IT.
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, .
Thal my ?lends get up at home!"
Now gleaming knives are drawn and flash'.l,
. -
And Blood bedabbles the stones •
And liaise, and Paphle, their revels hold,
To the music ,t 1 curses and groans."
Sweet Rope for me! oh! sweet revenge,
I see in each changing scene!
My hour is curve—l shall conquer yet,
The Say lour—the Nazarene!" .
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."
The Bishops, and Preachers, thy henchmen
here,
Who have made this blood to run,
In Hell, shall elrele about me throne
As comets around their sun." ,
Not all the kings, that the Earth e'er bore,
Have won a crown IlEce thine;
Thou bast shamed the synch of Hell's first
born,
Oh! I joy to call thee mine!"

SPECIAL ADVANTAGES OF THIS LOAN.
IT IS A :, s .ZATIONAL SAVINGS BANN, offering a
higher rate of interest than any other, and the
best security. Any savings bank which pays its
depositors in U. S. Notes, considers that ill Is
paying in the best circulating medium of the
country, and it cannot pay in anything better,
for its own assets are either in government
securities or in notes or bonds payable In gov
ernment paper.
MEM
It is equally convenient as a temporary or
permanent• investment. The notes can always
be sold for within a fraction of their face and
accumulated Interest, and are the best security
with banks as collaterals for discounts. •
CON vEirrz BLE INTO A SIX PER CENT. 5-'IA GOLD
In addition to the very Merit' interest on the
notes for three years, this privilege of conver
sion is now worth about three per cent. per an
num, for the current rate for 5-'4 Bonds Is not
lees than nitre per end. premium, and before the
war the premium on six per cent. U. S. stocks
was over twenty per cent. It will be seen that
the actual profit on this loan, at the present
market rate, is not less than ten per cent.. per
rmm==,.rrolmywm?mil
But aside trout all the advantages we have
enumerated, a special Act of Congress exempts
nH bonds and Truasury note. from Meal taxation.
m the average, this exemption is worth about
t µ o per cent. per annum, according to the rate
or taxation in various parts of the country.
It is believed that no securities offer so great
i,ducemeuts to lenders as those issued by the
governicient. Ita all other forms of Indebted
