.mosthorrible and brutal murder
0114hitted in the, neighborhood of
Ashv)lloVashington couotY,
about fifty miles from this - city, on the
aftoi4ilat of the 4th of _I t appears
that in - the 'settlement of Germans in
that-neighborhood was- one whose re
potelfwealth was great. He had quite
axisalxiber-of farm- hands working for
IdirWattd - on the day in question the
whole force - was engaged in harvesting
the - crops. Some three of the men did
not wish towork on the 4th of July,
attilto stated to the farmer, who told
thenche wished to secure his crop, and
if they did notwork he would pay them
off and discharge them.
.Thin appears to have given them of
fence, but they concluded to quit work,
and the, farmer accordingly paid them
off; discharged them, and they went
away. The work went smoothly , on un
til about the hour of 4 o'clock, when the
farmer discovered - that his dwelling
house was on fire. All haste was im
mediately made to the scene of the con
flagration by the farmer and his remain
ing field hands. Upon arriving at the
scene, and on endeavoring to obtain ac
cess to the house, it was, found that all
the doors were securely fastened. When
the doors were forced by the people as
sembled, the first object that met their
gaze was, the mangled and half burnt
body of the farmer's wife, her brains be
spattered over the room. The body
was removed from the burning build
ing, and every effort exerted to stop
the conflagration, which was final
ly accomplished. As soon as the
fire was stayed an immediate search
was instituted for traces of the fiendish
perpetrators. A number of the neigh
bors immediately took horse and went
in the direction of Richview, a town
some fifteen miles distant, where they
learned one of the men had gone. At
Richview they succeded in capturing
one of the supposed murderers, named
White. He was brought to the neigh
borhood of Nashville, where he was
hung up several times by the infuriated
people who had him in charge, in order
to extort a confession from him. After
the third hanging he expressed a desire
to make a confession, which in sub
stance was as follows :
After the farmer discharged them
they concluded to go and rob the house
before his return ; to which two of them
agreed, but the other man would have
nothing to do with the affair and it is
supposed that he came on to St. Louis.
White and the other man then started
for the house, where they found the
farmer's wife alone, and demanded her
husband's money, which she refused to
give up, or tell them where it wassecre
ted. A kettle of water was boiling on
the fire, and upon her continued refusal
the ruffians seized her, threw her upon
the floor, and poured the boiling water
slowly over her person. She still refused
to tell where the money was secreted,
even under this horrible torture, when
White becomingenraged, seized .billet
of wood lying close by, and with a
single blow dashed out the un
fortunate woman's brains. They
then instituted a search of the
premises, and succeeded in dis
covering four hundred dollars in green
backs and about $2,000 in notes, which
they decamped with after setting the
house on fire. After making this con
fession a consultation was held, and the
crowd of citizens, numbering about
three hundred, resolved to hang him.
The noose was accordingly re-arranged
about his neck, and in a few moments
his soul was ushered into the presence
of his Maker, to answer the crime of
which he had been guilty. On his per
son was found about $4O in money, and
three permits from the Commandant at
Little Rock, Ark., allowing him to pass
out of the lines. He was a man about
thirty years of age, and was, we believe,
a native of Pennsylvania. His partner
in crime has not yet been arrested, but
he can hardly escape the punishment
he deserves. Great excitement prevails
in the neighborhood, and there is but
little doubt the other, if captured, will
meet the same fate as White.—St. Louis
Press.
A,National Humiliation
We copy hereunder an article from
the Buffalo Comincreird Advertiser,
which, as will be observed by what it
says, is a Republican paper. It may
well feel humiliated at the spectacle
presented by the Chief Justice of the
United States Supreme Court, making
an electioneering tour iu total disregard
of the dignity of his high office. The
conduct of Judge Chase is a national
humiliation, and it should not be for
gotten that he belongs to that party
which claims all the morality 'and in
telligence, and all the decency in the
land. So says the Advertiser:
" As much as we have admired the
honesty of purpose and the great wisdom
which have characterized the previous
political record of the present Chief
Justice of the United States, and not
withstanding the fact that his ideas
upon theresulting issues of the rebellion
harmonize so closely with our own, we
yet cannot resist the conviction that he
has widely departed from the establish
ed landmarks of judicial propriety in
his recent tour through the South. To
us it is a humiliating spectacle to see a
person occupying his exalted position
engaged in making a political pilgrim
age, making speeches, writing letters,
and expressing opinions upon vital
questions which may, and doubtless
will, speedily be brought before him for
a final adjudication.
"It is a spectacle that should make
us blush for the reputation of that ex
alted tribunal, and one which makes a
painful contrast with its high traditions.
It cannot fail to strike the jurists of
England with astonishment, and to les
sen the future respect and authority
with which American decisions will be
quoted in their courts. Tosay the least,
it is a grattitous and dangerous breach
of decorum and established proprieties
of judicial ac„tion. As such, we have
been pained, almost beyond expression,
that it should have occurred. • -
" It is peculiarly unfortunate that it
should have occured just at this time.
The - people, both North and South, are
divided in opinion in regard to the legal
results of the war, and of many of the
measures which have been adopted in
carrying it on to its present successful
termination. Chief Justice Chase has
in many of his utterances practically
forestalled his own judicial action in
regard to them, and has weakened, if
not destroyed, the effect and dignity of
any decision he may hereafter be called
upon to make. He has already declared
extra judicially the Federal relations of
the States, and the status of the freed
men, with eager haste which, from such
_lips, borders on flippancy.
"As we said before, we agree with-the
Chief Justice in almost all that he has
said ; we admire him as a politician and
a statesman, but we would much rather
have seen him more careful of the er-
Mine once so worthily worn by John
Marshall. We think he has needlessly
violated the proprieties which should
have hedged him about in his great
office."
The Shoe Trade.
The shoe business is at the present
time rather quiet in New York and vi
cinity, so far as manufacturing is con
cerned. Some orders are being received
for the Fall trade, but very few goods
are being sent off. Stock of nearly all
descriptions used in the manufacture of
' , shoes has come down, and prices have
reached very,nearly apoint at which it
will be safe to base calculations in man
ufacturinn•'' for some time to come. We '
doubt if alower point will be reached
during the next three months.
Manufacturers, many of them, en
tertaining this same opinion, are
now making up in anticipation -1
of a good demand thi ensuing Fall, and
purchasers will find when they come to
get their supplies a very desirable as
sortment of goods, and at lower prices '
than have ruled during the past six
months, unless the wages of laborshould
increase, which, under a decline in
prices of many of the articles of family
consumption, is not likely to occur.—
Orders from those heretofore engaged in I
the shoe business at the South will pro
bably be far less than was at first anti
' cipated, most of the old shoe dealers at
the South having gone under.—Shoe

The Wissaiiiitkint 'emelt aad schitYlkill
River Tremendoiudy-
Damaged and Badges dnatried Away-4
Serious Destruction to PrOperly Along'
the Schuylkill /Direr.'
[From Tuesday's Philadelphia Press.] .r . !
On Sunday we had several triflitagshowers
of rain, which, being usual at this season of
the year, were not noticed. A very heady
black cloud pasSed over the city about dusk,
moving in a northeasterly direction, and
quite a breeze sprang up at this time, but a
lull quickly followed. The rain poured
down in torrents along the' Wissahickon
creek about seven o'clock. A policeman;
who was on his beat between the Falls of
Schuylkill and School-house lane, informs
us that about ten o'cioek he heard a horn
blow, but as that is. the signal for taking off
pilots from the canal boats, no attention
was paid to it. A sharp cry for help soon
followed the sound of the horn, and he
walked towards the Schuylkill, and then he
first noticed the rapid rise in the river, and
discovered that the cr' and sound of the
horn proceeded from a man who was on
board two canal boats lashed together. The
officer, with his partner, rushed to the near
est bridge and tried to get a rope to the
man, but were unsuccessful. A colored
man subsequently rescued the man from
his perilbus position by means of a small
boat.
A citizen living near the Wissahickon
says the creek rose three feet in half an
hour, and continued to rise until three
o'clock A. M., when it subsided. Of course,
where the embankments were low, every
thing was overflown; but we infer that the
Schuylkill rose, between ten P. M. and
and three o'clock A. M., to a height of fully
ten feet.
The mills on the Wissahickon suffered
somewhat severely as far as theirout-build
ings were concerned, but the staunch main
buildings resisted the water successfully.
Among the mills injured were those of
Hefts, the dye-house being entirely de
stroyed, and the machine shop partially so.
This gives the most shOcking appearance of
any of the huildings along the river. It is
difficult at present to estimate the damage,
but we heard it estimated roughly at ten
thousand dollars.
.Mcgarge's paper mill was considerably
injured, but to what amount we cannot
even average, as we heard so many esti
mates made.
Dobson's woollen mill, near the mouth of
the Wissahickon, had the picker house car
ried away, with some machinery. Yester
day afternoon workmen were busy in clear
ing away the debris, and some of the
machinery taken out did not appear to be
much injured. The loss is estimated at be
tween $5,00e and $41,000. A portion of the
dam attached to this mill was swept away.
A 111111'1,er of bridges were placed across
the Wissahickon, some of which were very
frail structures, intended for foot passengers,
and of course 'they were snapped off like
pipe-stems. The county bridge at Brook's
how, was probably the most important
structure that was totally destroyed.
The bridge across this creek, which is
crossed by the Ridge avenue cars, was con
siderably injured, but the arches seemed to
be almost intact. A large number of work
men were engaged yesterday afternoon in
repairing it, and had constructed a toot
bridge so that passengers could walk across
and take the cars to Manayunk. Of course
this was attended with some delay, but the
vast amount of travellers were permitted to
go their way in the cars as usual.
A fiiature on the river was a formidable
sized bear that has long been au object of
attraction to visitorsalong the Wissahickon.
It seems that Bruin has frequently been
loose, and Mayor Ifenry notified the owner
that he must remove the brute. The man
date was obeyed by removing it front one
tree to another, but it seems that when the
strap drew tightly on the animal's neck he
would unbuckle it and walk around the
country. How he worked it when the
water arose about him,we do not know but
it is certain that he resumed his tramp, and
an old acquaintance of his master was sent
tbr to secure him ; not, however, before he
had made a breakfast off a goat.
From the Wissahickon up to Manayunk
the road had been entirely submerged, and
there was no place for a pedestrian, except
he would wade in mud in some places to
the depth of a foot or so.
At the steamboat landing, the little stern
wheel steamer Silver Wave was securely
moored, but it took strenuous exertions to
keep her to her fastenings. She had steam
ml, ready to back or fill as required, but did
not leave her berth. Between this point
and Manayunk are five two-story houses,
occupied by Dan Maher, Peter Higgins,
James Burr, and Thomas and Patrick Ken
dall. There is but little furniture in the
lower rooms, but there is the water-mark,
showing that the water on the ground floor
was four feet in depth, reaching nearly to
the mantel-pieces. An aged man told us
that they got what furniture they could in
the second story and then left, having to
carry some of the family through the water.
He innocently inquired if he was to be al
lowed anything for his losses.
Near these buildings is a blacksmith shop,
and it seems the son of Vulcan went into
it to save some valuable tools, but the water
rose so fast that a boat had to go in and
take him out. Some wag-says the black
smith went in after his anvil, but the ver
sion we give is the most credible.
No boats are to be seen running in the
Sehuylkill, but sunken canal boats dot the
stream at various places. Against nearly
every bridge, from Manayunk to Rope ,
Ferry, some of these heavy boats have
lodged, and either sunk or been greatly
injured. One of the huge affairs has taken
the place of , the muleteer and his mules,
and lodged up on the tow-path. It will have
to be launched off before it can be conve-
n en tl y passed.
Large quantities of lumber floated away
from wharves along the Schuylkill below
the Wire Bridge, but hosts of persons were
by fishing it ashore. Much of it will be re
covered, but whether or not the legitimate
owners will ever get it into their possession
again is another question. We heard sev
eral of the boys that coast along the Schnyl
kill say they were very tired, and had been
wet for many hours. Lumber is valuable
to this class of persons, particularly at this
time.
At the Mockley Almshouse, the baker,
Mr. Ludnity, made a narrow escape,
together with his family, but they all found
safety by going into the upper portion of the
building.
The new turbine wheels continue to pump
up water, regardless of the raging waters ;
but the old ones were out of sorts, the water
being to high for them to be used.
Some of them employed on Gray's Ferry
bridge state that they heard shrieks for help
during the night, some of which evidently
emanated from women. This might readily
occur, for the most of the captains of canal
boats have their wives and children on
board with them. The boat being adrift in
a furious storm would naturally excited the
persons to scream for help, but we have not
heard of any loss of life, and trust the boats
have brought up safely.
Some few horses, cows and pigs were
lost at various places, but that will, we
trust, be the extent of the loss of animal
kind.
At noon, yesterday, the waters of the
Schuylkill subsided, and came to a stand,
for a short time, but at five P. M. they were
running swiftly, but did not seem to rise
very radidly.
At Franklbrd, Chestnut Hill, and Lans
dale, the storm was felt very severely, and
much damage will be done to the unharvest
ed grain. At Lansdale, so a gentleman in
forms us who resides there, the rain fell in
torrents, partaking more of the nature of a
waterspout than anything else.
The time of the occurrence of the storm
on the Delaware was very fortunate, as but
few of the myriads of boats that glide over
the bosom of this beautiful stream were
under way. Some, however, were caught
out in it but managed to weather it out.—
The steamer Edwin Forrest met with a
squall near Tacony, but, under the guidance
of her experienced captain, breasted it
without any great amount of danger.
The trains to and from New York were
run upon time, passing over the old route,
the passengers crossing the Delaware, and
landing at Washington -street wharf. This
was occasioned by reason of some of the
piers of the Philadelphia and Trenton Rail
road at Schenck's Station being carried
away: The water in the Neshamony Creek
rose to a great height, and the Mulford
bridge came down and lodged against the
Newportville bridge, which in turn gave
way, and hence the damage to the Schenck's
Station bridge. The passengers will be car
ried by the old, route until the repairs are
made, which, of course win not take /onsi

a milder line of argument and cease to abuse
the prisoner and her witnesses. The crowd
behind the bar applauded the speeches and
shouted, "bully for you," to the counsel as
they kept up their wrangling. The judge,
whose decisions have all been one-sided,
significantly said to the jury just before
they went out, that "he would wait for

minds!"

Miss Harris will go West, it is said, in

The Press Dispatch
WASHINGTON, Jllly 19
The trial of Miss Mary Harris terminated
this afternoon, having occupied ten days.
The court-room was densely crowded with
interested spectators,including many ladies,
long before the court was formally opened.
Hon. D. W. Voorhees made the closing
speech in behalf of the accused, contending
that from all the affecting circumstances
and wrongs inflicted upon her, the homi
cide was an act of insane impulse. District
Attorney Carrington delivered the conclud
ing argument for the prosecution. He said
appeals had been made to the sympathies
of the jury—nothing else, and he could
prove it. "Great God," he exclaimed,
"what an array of counsel! Joseph 11.
Bradley, the great and eminent lawyer."
Before he had finished the sentence, Mar
shal Gooding interrupted the speaker, tell
ing the audience they must cease laughing,
or he would arrest them.
Mr. Carrington said—Let them laugh,
judge; they have the right to laugh or cry.
;Marshal Gooding responded—Mr. Car
rington, I will regulate that matter.
Mr. Carrington: Very well, I submit.
Continuing his remarks, he said: If the
jury acquit this woman on the ground of
insanity they put upon the records a fact
that will make them look ridiculous. The
scene is laid in Chicago. We lied that
Mary Harris meets Abtry Devlin, who
keeps a millinery establishment. What
kind of an establishment was that?
Judge Hughos here called the attention of
the court to the ntisrepresentat-ion of the
evidence by the district attorney.
Judge Wylie informed the district at
torney that he should not retaliate upon
Miss Devlin, as to the character of her
house, because the counsel for the defense
had attacked 1)r. Burroughs. There was
nothing in evidence against the character
of the house of Miss Devlin, and he would
not permit Mtn to make an attack upon the
house, though he might continent as much
as he liked upon the testimony of those
ladies; but he should ma assail her house,
against which there was no evidence.
Mr. Carrington—No man shall say that I
was ever seen to cower; I discharge my
duty in the fear of God, and without the
fear of man.
Judge Wylie—Yon shall not go on in that
manner, sir. I will put you in the custody
of the marshal. You shall not go on, sir,
in that way. I will have no discussion be
tween you and - inyself to lie determined by
the jury.
Judge Hughes said he did not desire to
interrupt the District Attorney. He there
fore hoped he would confine himself to the
evidence and within hounds.
Judge Wylie said it was unpleasant for
him to interrupt the counsel ; but in the
closing argument the counsel must limit
Ihemselvesecognized hounds.
Mr. Carrington resumed his argument,
and again denounced Miss Devlin.
Mr. Bradley said such conduct was un
becoming a gentleman, and no gentleman
would use such language. He could not sit
quietly and sutler this unprotected lady to
be insulted by Mr. Carrington.
Mr. Carrington said he would do his duty:
Mr. Bradley rejoined that no gentleman
would use such language.
Mr. Carrington said he would return the
insult, the gentleman having used such lan
guage against Dr. Burroughs.
Mr. Bradley said Miss Devlin was brought
here by him, and.he would protect her. An
attack upon her was an attack upon him,
and he would resent it.
The court ordered the marshal to stop the
quarreling, and informed Mr. Carrington
that he was going beyond bounds in using
such language against the lady, against
whom there was nothing in evidence.
After Mr. Carrington had concluded his
argument, Judge Wylie said to the jury
that the law had 1 laid down by the
court. Feeling satisfied that they under
stood it, he would now submit the case
without further charge. He hoped they had
made up their minds and would soon rea
der their verdict..
The jury retired to their room, and in
about ten minutes returned with a verdict
of " not guilty. - The announcement was
received with loud applause. Some of the
women cried with joy. Handkerchiefs
were waved and hats thrown up. A large
number of spectators rushed toward Miss
Harris to congratulate her on her acquittal,
the words of which had scarcely been an
nounced when she thinted, and was taken
front the court-room in the arms of Bradley,
her senior counsel. Persons outside the
room caught up and repeated the acclama
tions of joy.

IRON IN THE BLOOD
IL is well known to the medical profession
that IRON is the vital Principle or Life Ele
ment of the blood. This is derived chiefly from
the food we eat •, but if the food is not properly
digested, or if, from any cause whatev r, the
necessary quantity of iron is not taken into the
circulation, or becomes reduced the whole sys
tem suffers. The bad blood will irritate the
heart, will clog up the lungs, will stupefy the
brain, will obstruct the liver, and will send its
disease producing elements to all parts of the
system, and every one will suffer in whatever
organ may be predisposed to disease.
The great value of
IRON Ali A MEDICINE
is well known and acknowledged by all medi
cal men. The difficulty has been to obtain such
aprepruation flt as will enter the circulation
and assimilate o at once with the blood. This
point, says Dr. Hayes, Massachusetts State
Chemist, has been attained in the Peruvian
Syrup, by combination in a way before un
known.
