PITTSBURGH GAZtITE : MONDAY, JULY 13, 1868. aikido of Jeanie Mper—Corosers quest. The facts connected with this singular affair are still freidi in the minds of our readers;and we need not rehearse them here. On Wednesday, the day on which she died, the Coroner impannelled a jury ( to investigate the case, and after viewing the body the inquest was adjourned until Saturday at two P. M. On . Saturday,the inquest was held, at which the following testimony was elicited: - • Dr. W. K. Harnaten. sworn--On Monday morning, shortly after nine o'clock, I was called to• see Jennie Miller at the Union Depot; found her laboring under the effect apparently of an overdose of opium; s.s soon as possible I administered emetics, the effects of the poison having affected her constitutionally; we endeavored to keep her awake by having her walk over the floor, parties assisting her until she was entirely pOwerless; • water was iiashed in her face, and she was rubbed; we kept her breathing by this and other means; at times it was with great difficulty we could keep her br . Cathing; from 5% to 7 o'clock In the evening we could raise her without much trouble; about 9 o'clock she was able to speak, reaction liaving come on; I then had hopes of her recovery; she vomited incessantly through the night and during the next day; on Thursday morning the powers of life failed and she sank rapidly -and died about 10 o'clocx; the poison seem ed to kill her by poisoning her blood, and she had congestion of the brain, liver and nngs; the amount taken was about two birds of an ounce. Examination resumed—Do not think she I. adpiny other disease; did not ask her if she ad improper connections with per sons,' do not think she was fn the family way; did not examine her before or after her death.- James:Bacon, one of the young then who had been keeping company with the de ceased, testified that the last time ho saw her was on Sunday evening, at Mr. Low rie's house in East Liberty, She was well at that time, and told him that she wanted to get rid of Mr. Quinn, and thought he would go home. I heard that she was poisoned, and came to the depot to see her; she said she had her lessons for killing herself, and that she did not want anybody punished - for what she had done. Quinn said they were engaged to be married, but she denied it; she was witlrhim in Pitts burgh _on the Fourth of July. Her state ment to me' was that she proe'ured the laudanum in East Liberty, by sending a little girl to a drug store, giving her twenty-five cents, and requesting her to purchase that amount. Her companion; Mr. Quinn, was with her when the pack age was given her by the little girl; he asked her what was in it; she said, cordial, and she was going to take it when she got home; she took the landanuna at the sta tion, when ne was not seeing her, and he did not know she had taken it; she handed me [the witness] the bottle. [lt was here produced by the witness, and was about one-fourth full. It contained the label of R. M'Clarran, Druggist, East Liberty, and a printed'direction as to the doses required to be taken by persona of various ages.] I visited her on the evening of that day. John Cardiff; a cousin of the deceased, was examined and testified that he shw Miss Miller on Monday meriting about two o'clock. She got him his breakfast, and he came to Pittsburgh. Quinn 'and Miss Miller were together the same morning at seven o'cWck, when he returned from Pittsburgh; saw therWat Mr. Bown's gro cery store in East Liberty; I beard about i one o'clock that she was poisoned; she said about half an hour before she died that she was tired of being knocked around, and that Quinn had nothing to do with it; Mr. Quinn stop at the same house, and al- ,1 ways ed there When he was in East Liberty; Mr. Bacon appeared to be liked I by her better than' Quinn was. James Lowrie, thegentleman with whotit the girl lived, was sworn, and said that on 1 Monday morning, about two o'clock, she came to his bed and told him not 'to wake her as usual, as she did not want to see Quinn; she slept in the same room with witness. About six o'clock Quinn came into her room and took her by the hand and pulled her up, and asked her to go to the station with him. She had ' 1 sown with her clothes on. It was repotted that she had taken poison some time ago at JOhnstimn. • • • - Cardi f f was re-called and testified thSt he never,knew of her taking poison before, but she was sick last winter, and her brother-in-law found in her pocket a lozenge, which was said to be a love pow der, or Love lozenge, and thatthey had bet ter have it examined., It was shown to Miss Miller, and she said she would attend to that. This closed the evidence' and the jury rendered the following Verdict: •That Jennie Miller came to her death by an overdose of laudanum, administered by her own handi, on tbe fith ofJuly, death resulting therefrom on the Dth of July, at the Union Depot, Pittsburgh.

Patrick Leonard must have realized the truth of this old . , proverb on Saturday, for it seems that both . occa sions occurred in one short day of his life. Patrick having been discharged •from jail, where he had been serving a term for larmny, thought he at least ought to smile to express his joy at release, and he ac-' cordingly did so. Strange to say, how ever, the smiling was just the reverse of making him good humored; in fact it made him quite bad humored and , cansed him to commence an onslaught on officer J. H. Behsen, which resulted in his arrest on an 044 c irm information fo assault and battery pre ferred by tb officer before Alderman Lippert. A h Thg was had in the case, and Patrick w a, compelled to take up his old quarters, - hich he was exceedingly loth to do. 1 2 r Patrick. -- 1 -----4.--.4 Manchester Beading Room.

The publication of this *ork at this time, especially as' the National Democratic Con- vention is Aialloting for Presidient and Vice- Piesident at the time this notice is written, is significant. By Democracy, of course, Mr. Gillet means the prilieljiles of the Demo cratic pirty, and his book Is a defence of that .party and an outline,of its history. The fact that Mr. Gillet wagfor a long time a prominent and active politician, he has had ample opportunities to fit himself for the duty of writing such a book.

By Dr. Gerhard Uhlhorn, First Preaoher to the Court. Pub li shed by Little, Brown & Co., Boston, Mass. It is rarely that 8( 4, 1, much thought and it gument is embraced in the compass of such a small voluine, as the one before us. Every lover of evangelical truth will hail its timely publication, not only for the sue- Cesiful refutation of the teachings of Re nen, Shenkel and Strauss, but for the valua ble arguments fhrnfshed to hand to resist such views as were taught by them. The' first discourse is a review of Renan's Life of :Jesus. The second attacks and exposes' in a very satiikctory manner .the heresies of Shenkel and Strauss. The third vindicates the truth of the Gospel. .The last discourse isOpen mericales. We hope the work will have a wide circulation. • Ilr Tna Smoot, Room. Chapters in the Philosophy of Education.
