In the Court of Common Pleas much interest is

•Milo Althea iteeves swao called On the

conduct, DE wcll as that e s f her mother and her
self, was in fl uenced by the purest motives, and
that astir actions, though apparently improper.
to the world, were, on account of their higher
and purereondition, films from sin.
The trvidenee being dosed; C. 1,. C. GlLYord,
cotthEci for the prisoner, made an argument in
his defence, claiming that he was morally insane,
and instancing- the evidence of Dr. Dodd, the
County Physician, and Messrs. King and Rod
well, the freeholderS, to corroborate It Me a/so%
maintained that the essenee of crime was the ins
tent; and that whatever improper actions may
have been done, there was no intention to com
mit In eupport of this he reviewed va
rious eases which have become legal pre
cedtnts, alluding particularly to the murder trial
of Margaret Garrity. - •
Mr". Titewortb, the Counsel for the State, con
tended that the prisoner was perfectly' aware of
his condition, and of the regard in which his as were held , by the world. • He could not;
therefore, be coneidered insane, any more than
Mies Reeves. s • •
The Judge's charge:to the Jury was principally
as to the sanctity of the prisoner, and his con
sequent responsibility. The Jury then retired.
The case of Dr. E. Z. Wickes, charged with
printing and publishing; immoral publications,
was then ordered- on. Mr. Guild appeared for
the defendant. Police Justice Mills testified to'
having seized one '_of the works on Wickes'
premises, and that Wickes told him th e company,
of which he was The agent, published them. Dr.
Gomel' testified that s ttnL tone-and -tendarmy uf
the Works was to 'immorality, and they differed
in many respects from medical works. The'ease
was still on at the time of going threas.
Judge Teens the presiding Ju dge , delivered
hie charge to the' jury. By thelaws of this
State, gentlemen, every person who shall be
guilty of open lewdness, or any notorious act of
public indecency, grossly scandalous and tend
ing to debauch the morals and manners, of the
people, ehall, on conviction, be liable to a
fine of $lOO or imprisonment for one year. It
has not been disputed in this case that the acts
of the defendant were acts of public indecency,
grossly scandalous, and tending to debauch
the morals and manners of the people,
and that the prisoner • ought to be
corrected and smashed according to the
statutes in such case made and provided,
If he was a sane man and responsible pa rt sects.
Much evidence has been given on the of the
defendant as to his religious belief, his communion
with visite, freedom from human passions and
lust, and his claim to be purer and better than
those of his own sect who are on a common
plane. The defendant is, it seems, what is called
epirituatisL Be cl forma tion be a medium
depart
transmission of i from
spirits, and that 'by one fasting and continued
subjugation of the passions, he has at length
reached a state of perfection and freedom from
the frailties of humanity. He has two
disciples or companions in his belief, a
mother and her daughter; and the three
claiming to be pure, and • that therefore to
them all things were pare, proceeded, on the first
day of January last, in the presence of several
witnesses, to divest themselves entirely of cloth
ing and expose their naked persons to the view
orpassere by. They claimed they were bearing
testimony to the truth; that while to the unin
itiated in theirtnysteries such transactions might
seem strange arid criminal, yet to them they ap
peared right, and that they were ready to suffer
imprisonment or persecution as a test of their
sincerity. Are the above facto consistent with
the sanity of the defendant? Some light may
be , thrown on this question, gentlemen,when you
consider that a witness en thiscase,whoae veracity
18 not Impeached, and who appeared as intelli
gent as any other witness in the cause, testified
that he not only believed in tho possession of
persons by evil spirits, but that he had himself
seen a person possessed of several; that on one,
oecasion, when in his preaence;an obscene spirit
bad visited the defendant and sought communica
tion with him, he' had warned the defendant to
resist that spirit; thltt, nevertheless, the evil
spirit bad prevailed, and that in his opinion the
defendant was not responsible for the acts which
are the subject matter of this indictment, but
that the evil 'spirit which possessed him was res
sponsible for these. This witness further told
you that his , wife was a trance-medium, and
had lectured without having heard her
self speak; how he himself was not moved
by .the spirits; and how the spirits departed
from his presence. Now when you consider that
an apparently sane and intelligent witness states
sander oath as grave facts, withi n his own per
sonal knowledge, occurrences which most per
sons would look upon as delusions, how can you
say that a belief in spiritual communications is
an evidence of, insanity ? Most religions claim
to have their oracles, seers, prophets, or me
diates, each religion' claiming that the spiritual
manifestations Vouchsafed to t ere genuine, and
intended to benefit mankind; and that those of
alll other sects are frauds, or manifestations
of 'demons, who seek to destroy or mislead.
Neither is it any new thing that a person
should manifest his supposed purity by appear
ing'naked. In this community indeed it is rare,
but in India, time out of mind, there have , been
fanatical pereons who have wandered naked
through the street, and who have obtained
thereby a reputation among their countrymen
for great holiness. The same disgusting test of
passion, too, has been applied to these devotees
by females as the wituestree_swom waeupplted
tbe 'defendant byMntsffeeveasabil daughter.
(Here the Judge gave a resume of the main points
in the case.) It is not necessary, gentlemen,
that you , should go into flne-spna
theories as to psychological develop,.
ments, or. into nice distinctions between
mental and moral insanity. Society is entitled
to protection. Perseus who violate the laws or
who become public nuisancee, must be deprived
of the power of mischief. Whether the des dna
tior4 ot such persons ought to be the lunatic
asylum or the State prison, is a question the
answer to which depends 'upon whether the 'aet
complained of was or was not done by ant:gel
ligebt and morally responsible person. It Is no
defence fora man to say and believe that some

[From the Pittgoirirost. of Jan. 281
Between four and five o'clock yesterday after
noon two white'cit liens of Allegheny Alfred and
John Gabby (brothers), were attacke d by a party
of negroes, with piatole and razors, and both
were seriously wounded. Alfred received a pistol
shot in his right arm, and John .was shot In the
right side, and n ceived a severetash on the, neck
by a razor in the hands of one pf the 'neglect'.
We learned the following particulars of the affray
last night at the Allegheny Mayor's office:
A crowd of negrocs, among whom
were Jo. Fisher, who . only last
Friday came out of the county jail, wimp. he was
confiner for stealing, Jahn Clark, a barber, and
others whose names we did not learn, were con
gregated at a saloon at the corner of West and
iiecond streets, Allegheny,, when Alfred and John .
Gabby entered. One of the - negroes began to
abuse Alfred Gabby because that gentleman, had
once arrested him some time ago, when Gabby
was on the police force. A general attack upon
the white men followed, during which they re
ceived injuries as above related: The shootiag,
it is alleged, was done by Fisher, and the cutting
by Clark, who was seen to draw a
razor from his pocket and use IL
Alter committing" the outrage the negroes
retired to a house on 4 North avenue, vrhere ;hey
were shortly,lollovred by an excited crowd of
over= fi ve' tundrell white people, shouting. 'kill
the infernal I:tepees!' The house was surrounded
by the mob, and,,the •doors and windows were
shattered intofragments. A strong police force
at this StftSo, :tirrived on the scene and arrested
Fisher, Clark, and two other negrocs, a proceed
ing to which the black scoundrels probably owe
their lives, as the people were staincensed against
them: 'that It was with difficulty they
were restrained from billeting summary
punishment upon the negroes even
after they were In the hands of the officers.
They were hastily'conveyed : tor the lock up. and
Paced securely 'behind the bars. The wounded
men were taken to their home on Middle street,
where they received nroper medical attention.
Their wounds, though severe, are not considered
dangerous. 8o soon as they are able, it is their
intenticn to make information against the two
negroes.
The house of 'Melinda Lucas was completely
emptied of its contents of furniture, filth and
vice, the vicious element, consisting of the pro
prietress, another wench and a white woman,
being secured by the police and locked itp.

—Particulars of the alorrible%itiftalr.
Following are the particulars of a double mur
der in Warren, Trumbull county, Ohio, on Sun
day night, 26th inst.:
On the A. Lt; G. W. evening train np from
Youngstown on Friday evening, Was a man
about thirty years old, named Charles Freece,
formerly a brakeman on the road, but discharged
about a week ago. Freece was a soldier in the
latelsrar, but has not borne the best possible re
putation lor thrift and sobrie*- since his return
from the army. He lived in Warren, and had a
wife that belonged to a good tazoly, and is re
presented as in every way an estimable woman.
On the train last evening, Freece told the con
ductor that he was going to remove from War
ren to Youngstown—that he expected his wife
would not want to go. and that he would have
trouble about it—that if she refused to go, there
"would be h—IL" The result proved that his
threats were not idle. On reaching his6hOme, it
would appear that Freece, who was much intoxi
cated on the train,ot into some difficulty with
his wife at once. What the nature of the quarrel
was at first is not known, but the result was that
Freece stabbed his wife no lees than seven times
with a knifei - and - then; probably - leaving her for
dead, went into the yard in rear of -his-house-and
cut his own throat 'from ear to ear. .There he
was found - cif course stone dead. - Freece
was still living at last accounts, but no hoyes
were entertained of her recovery. The horrible
affair created intense excitement in Warren.
Disappointed Love--Attempted Suicide
by a Jilted Girl.
[From the Richmond (Vs.) Examiner olden. 98th.1
A young lad of exceedin beaut of face and
rare mental attainments, residing
yon Shockee
Hill, near Clay street, attempted suicide at an
early hour last Saturday night. Fortunately the
attempt was discovered in time to be frustrated.
For several days she had been staving intense
mentalogony, caused by an estrangement be
tween herself and a young gentlemfila to 'whom
she ha been long enag,
Several id
neffectual efforts to bring onmatrimonially
re oneed.ilia
tion had been made by a third party, and on
Saturday last the young gentleman informed the
lady that there was an inseparable barrier to the
heretofore contemplated union, but declined
most peremptorily to define minutely what this
barrier was. His answer having been communi
cated to the young lady, she seems at once to
have resolved upon the step to which we have
already made reference. The suspicions of a near
relative having been excited, the distressed girl
was closely watched, and as she was in the act of
swallowing the fatal draught, a timely thrust was
made from behind,and the silver tankard,contain
ing the deadly'drug, was wrenched from the hands
which held it.
All Saturday night, Sunday, and up to a late
hour last evening, the young lady was under the
most rigid surveillance. Her mind seems to be
wandering, and the relatives and friends fear that
an entire dethronement of reason may be the ul
timate result.

We haye,to anounce the arrest of. Charles A.
Plikin, a well-known citizen of this city, on the
charge offorgery to the amount of $5,000. We
made a note 9f the arrest last evading, but - gave
no Mink& The arrest was made on. Thursday.
The tilaintiffs in the case are H. IL Little and
Fred. Judson. The warrant was issued' by
George Hester, Justice of the Peace, before
whom Pithin was taken yesterday, when
the examination was postponed till. Mon
day next, and In default of bail, defend
ant was COMMIII(d• to, jail. He has been
quite a proadnent citizen of this
place. He says he has been deeply in
debt for over six months; and it was with a view
of relieving himself from financial embarrass
ments that he foolishly resorted to forgery. To
assist him in his criminal proceedings he in
veigled Mr, Henry B. Ingraham into his plans,
who negotiated the forged paper. Such names
as John Smith, 8. C. Porter and W. K. Corlett
appeared on the' latter. When Pltkin was' ar
rested he denied the charge of forgery in foto, de.
elating that Ingraham was the guilty party. 'ln
graham—who is •a real estate broker—on the
other hand, disclaims all knowledge of the crimi
nal nature of the paper. He has been arrested
likewise, but is at liberty on bail.

On Monday evening Lawrence' Mullen and
William O'Brien, laborers, who are old acquain
tances, had a quarrel in the lower part of the
city, but they were separated before endangering
their lives. At eight o'clock yesterday morning
Mullen and O'Brien met on the corner of Broad
and Beaver streets, when O'Brien, as charged,
without - warning or the least_ intimation
et, his' • nltuAtroub intention drew a
large sheath -or • butcher knife ' and
plunged it into the left side of Mullen's neck,
inflicting a deep and mortal - wound. The alarm
was instantly given by. Thomas Foley, of 18
Roosevelt street, then standing near, when officer
Waller, of the First precinct, came and
and ar
rested O'Brien, who soul, done it, and will go
to the station house with you," at the same time
taking the knife he had used from his pocket. In
continuation O'Brien said :—We quarreled the
night before, but I did not settle it then ; but
when I met Mullen this morning- I did. I stabbed
him in the neck with a knife." Mullen, who
lived in the lower part of Washington street, was
convejed to the New York Hospital, where his.
wound was .dressed, and subsequently Coroner
Schirmer received information to appear and take
his ante-mortem statement, or dying deposition.
The physical condition of the sufferer, however,
was such that it was thought extremely hazard
ous to disturb •himi therefore Coroner Schirmer
postponed the matter. Later in•the day O'Brien
was taken before Justice }Logan, at the Tombs,
where Foley and officer Waller wads depositions
embracing the %boy° fact& The magistrate com
mitted the pritioner to await the result of his vic
tim's injuries. The prisoner lives at No. 101

Since the above was written Mullen, the
injured man has died in the hospital from the
effects of the Injuries received, and Coroner

/Weirder of a Brother of the Slayer of
colonel Ellsworth by Elie own eon.
[From the Macon (Ga.) Telegraph, Jan. M.]
From a reliable gentleman we have learned
the particulars of a horrible and lamentable oc
currence which happened -near Fort... Valley yes.
terday, in which a father was shot and killed by
his own son, The unfortunate man was. Dr.
Jackson, a brother , of the Jackson who killed
Colonel Ellsworth for hauling down 'a Con
federate flag from over his hotel at Alasandria,
Va., during the first year of the war. Dr. Jack
son removed to Georgia during the rebellion,
and has been residing there ever since. The cir
cumstances of the killing, as we have them from
our informant r were these: There had been an
angry family altereation,during which the doctor
is said to have forcibly ejected his son from his
premises, who thereupon turned and tired upox
his father twice, killing him. We have not
learned whetherthe young parricide had been
arrested or not,'but presume so.

Promotion of Cardinals—Papal Gra.
simile to France.
[Parte (Jan. 18) Corieepottdence of the London Timeg
In the Cousistory of March next Will take
place a promotion, of Cardinals, in which, the
Archbishop of Parts and the Abbe Bonaparte; a
Rumnn prelate, Will'. be Included. The Papal
Nuncio bas notified in person to the French
Minister of Foreign Affairs the decision of the
Pope, declaring ,that the proposal of France,
transmitted through the Ambassador in the
name of the Emperor, has been accepted, so far
as Monseigneur Darboy is concerned. The
Metropolitan of Paris is the youngest of thq
French Archbishops. Having been born le 1813,
he is but 54 years of age; he only entered the
epoiscopate in 1859, when homes made Bishop of
Nancy. The nomination of the . Abbe. Bonaparte
is an act of courtesy and gratitude; of which the
initiative IsAtie torthe Holy Father.' This pro
motion of a member of 'the Imperial, family - of
France to the scarlet hat is, an ,exceptional
act. Monseignor Chigi has expressed the desire
of conferring thedignity on two
other French, prelates,. ,tutsame
France, which has
almost always had eight Cardinals, at present
posseena lite only.- ThesErench Gdrentnsehn, in
accordance with the desire of the' Holy See, is
said to Mo ns proposed the - new Archbishop Of
Rennes, eigneur Landrion who was raised
to the epideopacy in 1856, and Monseigneur Re,g
nier, Archbishop of enthral, aged 73, and who
was made a Bishop in 1842.' The five present
Cardinals are: Afouseigneur„Billienaged 84; Mon-.•

Monseignetir, Ma th ieu, 71; and Monseigneur do

—Thanks for the works whicinourtmutnal friend
Pallavicino has been good" enough to transmit to
me. I shall read thMii withgreit, interest; like all
which comes front 3 - on. "Why attempt a solu
tion by force which, would have come of itself?",
you ask me. Well, worthy friend. ramOf a
contrary opinion. To - wait till the Papacy Ope
rates its own destruction is to, commit an error,
and France pays to-day for the credulity
of which she• was guilty in., 1789.
Amenca and England plume themselves
. upork their religious liberties; the first did cer
tainly escape national assassination at the hands
of the Papist rioters of New York and other
States, but , the second has a gloomy task before
it in clearing away the, clouds of - Funiartism.
Shall we be simple enough to believe that the
priests would put an end to themselves to
oblige humanity? Thistles and OIL harmful
weeds propaeate themselves with nioni fecundity
and less tronible than any useful plants. I know
you say, :"Liberty of worship, liberty of con
science, liberty for all opinion," and I repeat the
cry; only Lit must be in the mouth' of ho •
nest
men. Does anybody believe in liberty. for vi
pers, for crocodiles, for thieyes or assassina?—
and what is the priest butthe assassin of thafrea
soul—far more mischievous than the assassin of
the body? France, who for good and evil lutist
influence so vastly the destinies of - the Arid—
do you think Franeewas morally leas advanced
or more 75 years back, when she proadmedto
bureanity--divided by the, sacerdotal tricks—
.the.
sublime principle of fraternity, with rational re
-ligicm and thereat'" StrproMe - Beinglbtlts
France was then in the apogee of her inflpence;
but, thanks to the pestilential germ of priest
craft which she spared, she standar flow robbed
of a century's g rowth in the splendid career of
progress and . freedom to which her high
destinies call her. Priestcraft and notutpartiaus,
which openly nowadaYs take hands to keep each
other up, give me rut as the enemy of France.
That is as much as saying ,I am an enemy to
fruit because I hate slugs. Yes! I avow I' do
hate evil, bate vice, bate corruption, of which
these pests are the emblem. But France! Ah,
my thousand friends in France, they will not let
me stoop so low as to j notify myself against that
calumny. I will say something more. It would
be very wrong to think that the absence of
French contributions to the Italian enterprise
was a proof of French ill-will. No, my country
men have too much intelligence not to distinguish
between the despot who insults us and the noble
nation which he gage. Certainly, when the
Italians rcfiect that the duties, on your ex
port goods pay the Pope's soldiers, I think they
do well not to go much by "lists of contributors.'
I accept your pleasant augury of seising me
shortly in France. Truly, I should return with
a filial love to my ancient land of exile, where I
meta hospitality so cordial and genenius. Bat
von must be_w. I persuaded ithat this will only
happen, when you have turned ; these "black
points" white which now deface onsfair land.
I gnaw oldfaater than my age, and I cOureas the
condition of my country hafting life desinward.
But I never despair of her future, above all with
friends as devoted and noble as you. I embrace
