the evidence did not warrant a finding of guilty. Self defense, he said, was the oldest law of man's being, and a law that hod been recognized for all ,'tinie as a right one. He also argued 'with fervid eloquence to the jury the .'importance of giving the prisoner the benefit of every reasonable doubt. After Mr. Cotter's speech court ad journed until 2 o'clock. SATURDAY AFTKRNOON. Court opened at 2 o'clock, when Mr; Richmond submitted additionul points to the court.which were argued upon by Messrs. Richmond and Jeuks for their respective sides. Mr. Richmond then went to the Jury.and talked for an hour and forty live minutes. It Is idle for us to at tempt even a synopsis of this great effort, made by this gentleman in be half of the prisoner at the bar. He denied the charge made by Mr. H ill as to the cheap auxiliaries thrown around the prisoner to create sym pathy. And stated that if either si de was guilty of doing that kind of busi ness the prosecution were, else why these widow's weeds and garbs of woe. referring to the widows, of Warnith and Vullrcier who wore in the court room. Reviewing- the testimony he treated Durke and W'uizull with tin tinted Irony, and canst io torrent of words, accusing them of perjury, gaud intimating that their testimony win of little value lu determining the ease. He pictured Dist. AU'y Wurnell as cowering in fright behind the friendly cover of a convenient hen eo.p, tlio very personification of fear and cow ardice. He congratulated Elk county on the possession of two such worthy officials. Jn closing he appealed to the jury for mcr y and for justice. 'The speech was patiently listened to by a crowded court room, and was acknowl edged on all hands to be a masterly argument and an eloquent plea, fully worthy of the man aiicHho occasion. Mr. Jen ks, for the prosecution, spoke from 4:10 until 5: -30. It was easily seen that this gentleman was on the wrong side of the case, for Instead of his usual eloquence, he confined him self to the facts brought out by the evidence, and to offsetting, by ingen ious argument, the burning eloquence of Mr. Richmond. Court then adjourned until 7:30 The conclusion was given in our last Issue. We have only one thing to add that is that all the law points sub mitted to the court by the counsel for the defense, were nlllnued by the court. Kn Ufa 21 slvo cal i THURSDAY, OCT. 7, 1680.

John McCarthy, was accidentally killed near the Ridgway station yes terday motnlng, Wednesday, Oct. 0, 18.80. He was engaged setting a brake on a car ac the local freight was about stopped at the station. Missing ills footing he Ml between the cars and on the track the forward wheels of one car passed over him at about tlie middle of the body, breaking his back and causing almost instant deatlu Th hotly was not severed, a broad red mark the width of tlie wheel across his body told tho tale of his misery. Witnesses to the terrible accident, say that lie hung on for a distance of six feet, vainly endeavoring to free- him self from his desperate position. The man has been a brakeman on local freight about six yeal's, Is a resident of St. Marys, where n wife and three children await his coming evermore, ilo was a man of good habits, indus trious and faithful, and well liked by all who knew him. His age is about :4 or 35 years. Viewing the remains of tlie quiet sleeper a feeling of oppres siveness filled our iniud , as we InviJ untary turned in though to that sor rowing wife, and now fatherless little ones, who parted but a few hours be fore in life and happiness beneath the skies of this glorious October morning little dreaming that those kisses would be the last forever and aye. Sympathy and pity for the broken-hearted widow who must now battle with the world alone, without the support of that strong arm now palsied in death, and the comfort of that warm heart, now stilled and cold, Pity for the little ones wiio miss a father's kiss, audit father's love. This is indeed, a sad case, and although illustrating the un certainty of human lite, yet we wish that such scenes might not be.
