Scott, of this city,: had been stricken with apoplexy. He was engaged in his office on F. street, at the time, and sum moned W. J. McLaren to his assistance. That gentleman followed his instructions as far as temporary relief, was concerned, Dr. Scott having been subject to slight attacks of a similar nature for some time past. But this proved to be a more sou vere one than usual, and Dr. Davis was called. He applied all the remedies which could be of benefit, but the patient did not rally, and at 5 o'clock be was remov ed to his home at the corner of sth and E streets. It only remains to be said that medical aid proved unavailing, and that our lamented fellow-citizen breathed his last about 8 o'clock in the evening. This brief tribute is due to - the depart ed : Dr. Scott was a cordial, candid gen tleman, firm in his friendships, and ono who would not advance his own interests to the detriment of his fellow man. During a 15 years' acquaintanceship we have never bad occasion to hold him in other than the highest esteem, and we have reason, to believe that the same mead of praise was generally awarded him in this - communi ty.

Probably no murder trial ever known is Bradford County excited less interest thin the one jattried. The low &inc. tiiiintit - priiimiers, aid the fact thatihe girl was almost !unknown whose alleged reurderwas the:foundvtion of the Indict ment, produced.an indifference in the re sult of the trial which is unusual in cases of the kind: Tbe history of the eme has been given already..but a brief statement _of it again may not be without interest. The girl, Dora Mann, was found hanging from a tree after having been dead several m.eks. Suspicion pointed to her adopted parents as murderers, and they were. arrested. The evidence showed that Susan Mann was airman of violenhemper, and that on numerous occasions she bad by throw ing scissors, and cruel beating, endanger ed the safety of the girl. There had been also deception practiced by the jwisonCrs in concealing facti about the whereabo4ts of the and statements were made ap parently to mislead the public. The ex clamation of Mrs. Mani, whets' the news that the girl had been found was csommn *Skated to her, "My God, where is she 2" was also taken to indicate guilt ; sev eral witnesses testified . to what was as- Burned to be au attempt to escape. • The evidence was airmail wholly cir cumstantial, but there were eki many cir cumstances pointing to Mrs. Mann as the guilty party, that a conviction seemed piobable to many from the first, although the defence thought, that there was at least a reasonable douht of her guilt. The evidence was very Convincing that the girl bad been murdered by-some one, and the attempt to show that it was a case of suicide, was a failure. Dora Mann had been murdered, and the statement's made by Mrs. Mann, the evidence of Campbell that he had seen her gesticulating in' an angry manner and talking to Dora, and afterward heard screams ; and the testi mony of Leonard to seeing her the same evening with "hair streaming &Am her back, hands clinched and apparently much excited," and other circumstances made it probable titat-Mre. Mann was the cause of her death. That she intended to kill her is probisbly - doubtful,. and the evidence does not absolutely prove that she did it,; but there is good reason to be lieve that she struck Dora in anger ar.d killed her, and then attempted to cover the crime by an awkward hanging to sug gest suicide. The trail where the prose cution asserted the dead girl was ;drawn from the house through the fields to the tree was not perfectly sustained, but there was some proof of it ; and altogether a network of circumstances, somewhat im perfect, but still fall of incidents not easi ly reconcilable with any other theory than that of guilt, was thrown.around the prisoner, and the jury believed her guilty. Had she previously borne a good char acter, the verdict would probably have beer different ; but the circumstances at tending Dora Mann's disappearance, the conduct of Mrs. Mann when told that she had been found, with the former cruel treatment of the girl, reinforced by the bad character of the prisoner were too much for the defence to overcome. The calk' is a dark one, full of mystery and unpleasant acts, and' unless Mrs. Mann should make a confession there must al ways be some doubt of her guilt. Her counsel revealed her character when be said, tha hills of west Brad ford were echclng with the cries of peo ple searching ' ,l for the lost girl, _ and all were believing that Mrs. Mann bad mur dered her." It must be a good defence better than is generally possible for a hu man being to make, when a verdict is ob tained against strong circumstantial evi dence, and the nrusnimona sentiment of the people.. . Ono think - was remarkable about the trial ; theatoical indifference of the pris oner. She faced calmly every witness, her large dark eyes looking unflinchingly at the men, and who even swearing to facts which •it would seen must strike terror_to the heart of• any one charged with crime whether guilty or innocent'; and only by occasional.whispers to her counsel did she pay any more attention to the trial , than any interested spectator might have done. She is a woman of nerve, and bore as well as any one could ..the strain upon her,_ The evidence in the /case *as closed on Friday afternoon and the summing up' by the counsel was begun in the evening, Messrs. Fanningl and Morgan addressing the jury. Saturday morning Messrs. brake and Rockwell made the .closing pleas, • The addresies of counsel, both for and against the prisoners, were able and were listened to with the closest attention by jury and audience. At 1:30 p. m., Judge Morrow began his charge to the4ury,occupying just one hour in its delivery.. It was a very clear and lucid statement of the law relating to the dif ferent degrees of murder, manslaughter. etc., followed by an impartial summing up of the evidence on both sides. The jury retired at .1:30,! and were absent about an hour, when they returned with a verdict as against Susan Mann of Mur der in the second degree ; A. J. Mann and Alice. Burr not guilty. Mrs. • min listened to the verdict with the ialme stoical indifference that marked tier deptirtment throughout the course of the whole trial. The verdict s is received with general satisfaction by the public. - ATTENTION COMRADES. In 'commemoration of the event of Washington's Birthday. There will be a meeting of Watkins Post, No. 68, G.

A NARROW ESCAPE. Mrs. Hammond, the wife of Her. E. P. HaMMOUde the Evangelist, met with a se rious accident at Hashville, -Tennessee, few days ago. While riding . * a buggy with a gentleman named Parsons, on one of tbe streets where this railroad makes a Y, with the street, in engine coming up behind frightened the home, which turn ed around and threw Mr: Parsons out, leaving Mrs. Hammond to- the mercy of the home. lie attempted- to cross the railroad ahead of the train, but failing in this he ran up_the track aide by side of the engine. The cylinder of the engine must have tipped the buggy, and threw Mrs.- Hammond on - the aide track upon which another train was coming, but which stopped before coming to her. She rolled off between the two tracks, and the 'next; instant the buggy was thrown over a rod on one aide of the train, and the horse on the other. The horse was hurt very badly and the buggy smashed. Mrs. Eisunmond's 'hip is very badly braised, and the ligaments of her arm sprained. She rests in an invalid chair, and although slowly recoveringshe may not , walk fora L'• onth or two. Mr: Parsons was very se verely injured on the legs and head. Al together it was a most frightful accident; and a very Providential escape.

'Moony died in, Chaim, Ogle Co. 111., J 16th, 1882 in the 87th year of his age. He wan home in Sheshequirr Bradford Co. Pa.,in May. The parents N. P. Moody an wife came.from Massa chusetts some tines months previous to the birth of the child. In 1783 the first white settlers pitched their tents in the beautiful valley of Sheshequin, and among them was Gen. Simon Spaulding who was very much respected ;and-es teemed by his neighbors, and Mr. Moody named the child Simon Spaulding. A few•months later the family moved over the hills, aided in their course by marked trees, to the valley of their. Wysox, some ten miles distant where the _village of Rome is now located. Here Simon remained at the parental fire side until he obtained his majority, and then went, to Deckers Ferry ; since known as Hyatt's Ferry about four miles below Owego N. ~ He married Lovina Hicks of Cheranng N. Y., and soon afterward moved to the we-tern fiontier settling in Vigo county, India= About the time of the break ing ouk r of the gold excitement he „joined a wagon-train and after months of un- told hardships, himself and family arriv ed at the fancied Eldorado. While pass ing through Utah he wrote to friends that the Mormons were the worst people he ever aaw. Fortunately he was not at the Mountain Meadow massacre or he would not have been left to express an opinion regarding that peculiar peo ple. In the spring of 1881 he returned to Ogle Co. 111., where he was tenderly cared for by a son and a daughter who spared no pains to make his few remain ing daysias comfortable and pleasant as possible. He retained in a remarkable degree both his'mental and physical fadul ties up to the hour of his death. On the evening of.
