building is owned by Sarah McCann. and is oc

story front was occupied by. William Hamman,
colored, who has had living with him for some

of the inmates broke open a window, and threw
the burning bed into the yard, thus preventing
any further damage. Some excited individual

man was arrested by the Fifth District Police,
but Fire Marshal Blackburn, upon investigation,
is satisfied that he did not cause the fire. Annie
O'Neill has disappeared.

NEW JERSEY MATTERS
Tar. STORM AND WRICOKS.—ThO heavy storms
and high winds along the New Jersey coast, this
week, were felt the most severely of any that
have prevailed the present winter and wore
attended with greater loss. On Monday the
schooner Lottie Clotts. under the command of
Capt. T. Endicott, was driven ashore on Pock's
Beach, about ten miles below Atlantic City. The
crew, however, safely reached the shore, with
out accident. The vessel was , loaded with
sugar, most of which will bo saved, but the
schooner, it is thought, will prove a complete
wreck. About the same time another
schooner, named George T. Thorn, Capt. Town
send, wasgrounded on the same beach. This
vessel was loaded with corn and cotton seed,
and pretty much all of her cargo will be saved.
The crew escaped any accident. It is believed
that this schooner will be got off. About twenty
miles below Atlantic City, on Ludloy's Beach,
another, two-masted, schooner was wrecked on
Tuuday, but no particulars have been ascer
tained. The weather was intensely cold, but
Japhet Townsend, the wreck master of the
coast, immediately went to their relief, and suc
ceeded in saving most of the cargoes of the two
wrecks on Peck's Beach.
DEsTxTum—The cold weather of the past few
days•has been more severely felt by the destitute

sively,and the committee appointed to attend to
such matters have been very busy in distributing
the various articles sent .to them by the philan
thropists.

THE SUAEFOLD.
11E'xecittlon of a Negro Woman in Mary
land—She Confeasee to Burying Her
Victim Alive.
On Friday, the 28th of February, Lucy Purnell,
negress,was executed at Snow Hill, Maryland, for
the murder of Hanson Robbins. The scaffold
was erected in an open field. The prisoner
shook hands with all those admitted to the scaf
fold. She expressed herself as loving everybody,
and, having made her peace with God, was ready
and anxious to go home to Him. While the
clergyman was addressing the crowd in her be
half' her eyes lit up with a wild un
earthly excitement, ritid she was rock
ing herself back and forth, clapping
her hands and working her lips. So soon as
he was done she burst forth in the following
manner : "Yes, I have got the grace of God in
my soul. • I don't fear to die. I am going to my
God. lam going home to glory. lam going to
a'honse not made with hands. I shall live for
ever. I have just found out how to live. I'm go
ing home. There is no mistake about it." After
conversing with several friends she exclaimed, "I
am going to live with God forever. I am. going
home to live with God. lam only going to die
a little spiritual death here." Then, with great
fervor, "Turn sinners, turn. I• have turned. I
die now one time, and never no more. lam
just going to church." As the visitors left the scaf
fold she commenced shouting,'exelaiming all the
time, over and over, that she was "ready to go,"
that "she was going to God," &c. Then sitting
down she said, "This is good old Friday, my
best day. I prayed God last night that it. should
not rain or snow, and He has answered my
prayer. lam going home to glory. Don't shed
a tear over my grave. Farewell to this sinful
world. Fm turned from sin to grace. This
death won't be any more than a horse-fly bite."
She died with but little apparent suffering. Be
fore the body was placed in the coffin the crowd
became highly excited, and in defiance of the.
guards rushed over the barriers ~ p to the body.
It was finally carried off the grounds.
She states that on the night upon which the
homicide was committed she had retired to her
bed, while the deceased was lying, on his plank
betore the tire. Between midnight and day the
deceased aroused her by approaching her bed.
demanding to share it with her. She denied
him the privilege, and he insisted, with violent
:anguage, and finally ordered her to get up and
leave the premises, or lie would pitch her and
her furniture out into the. road. That deceased
retired to his bench or plank before the fire, and
prisoner fell into a doze, supposing that the de
ceased had abandoned his intended violence to her,
when she was again aroused by his seizing a ta
ble belonging to her and dragging it towards the
door, which he had thrown open, as though to
throw. it out. andthen sat down on his plank,
looking towards the fire. She arose from the
bed very angry, seized a pestle made by the de
ceased for beating apples in eider making,' crept
up behind him without his seeing her, and struck
him a heavy blow on the head, which knocked
him over senseless. She then struck him
a second time while he was lying pros
trate. That- seeing he was worse hurt than
the intended, she struck no more. At this
stage of the tragedy her daughters woke up, and
the three-took the body across the road and aid it
down. The deceased was then alive, as indicated
by, his groans. She bade her daughters go back
to the house, 'dug a hole herself and placed the
body in It alive! Having covered it with dirt;
she placed shavings on top to conceal the place
of burial. Atter . placing the shavings on the
newly made grave she heard the most unearthly
groans proceeding from the buried man.
..;ont3clence stricken. she turned and fled
from the scene of her horrible crime. She seemed,
however to be drawn to the spot by some terri
ble fascination, and sometime afterwards dis
covered In ono of her visits past the grave that
the hogs had rooted up part of the skel
eton, which ',she carefully yeinterred. Again
she discovered that a libg had scratched up
the skull and carried it into an adjoining
. field.
This she took with her, and, making a circuit
around the field, buried it in the woods under • a
cedar tree.

The Louisville Journal, March 2d,..says :
On Friday night last, Tood Lyles, one of the
men who killed Thomas B. Burbrldge (a brother
of General S. G. Burbridgo) in Russellville. Ky.,
last October, was arrested at Nashville by dotec-'
byes Joe Cheatham and Frank Lolsea. Tho
prisoner made a vigorous attenipt to escape,
as the officers inform us. He ran out,
-Golan otoreetir - and' — *was -.4 4tigr - overtaken
until he got near the Penitentiary, about one
mile from town. His captors took him to Rue ,
sellville and placed him in custody of the Sheriff
on Saturday. Chealliam and Lolsea arrived here
yesterday afternoon, on their way' - to Frankfort,
to obtain the reward of two hundred and fifty
dollars offered by the Governor. An, additional
reward of eight hundred dollars was offered
by General Burbridgo and his brother for the
apprehemion of the murderers or any one of
them.
It will be recollected that Mr. Burbridge waR
shot and killed in an affray with Tood Lyles and

short time after the killing, the Lyles family
removed to Williamson °minty, Tennessee, and
have been "keeping dark" there ever since. This
fact ascertained by the detectives two weeks
ago, and they have been watching their chance to
grab l'ood Lyles, the principal in the bloody
affair. He is reputed to be a very , desperate
character, at ail times surrounded by a pack of
fellow-desperadoes. On this account the officers
of the law have not considered it safe to "beard
him in his den."
Mr. Cheatham has a good and reliable detective
force at hls command, and is confident of soon
trapping the balance of the party.
