RIGHT PREVAIL&
Pardon of Wm. C. Wray and Geo. W.
Shaw—A 'Gooey of tae. Cue—A
Wrong Repaired.
Many of our readers will be gratified to
learn that William G. Wray, of this city,
and George W. Shaw, of Connelleville,
Fayette county, who were tried and con
vieted in the Cotirt of Quarter Bettalons of
Fayette county en an indictment for bur
glary, and sentenced to the Penitentiary
for a term of flee years, have been par
dotted by the Governor, and are now en
be
tt
joying the Übe y of which they should
never have n deprived.
As Mr.• Wra is well known In this
community and enjoys the respect and
confidence off many Influential citizens
who believ him Innocent of the charge,
It might out of place to give a
brief
not/Tubeßl OP Tag OABL
112 the gaily part of 1807, the store of
Shaw & 'guts, In Oonoellsville, Fayette
county, wiw entered by burglani and the
wife, which Contained money and bonds
to the =hunt of over elO,OOO, was
broken opien and robbed of ita con
tent.. The affair was , shrouded in myx.
tery, and there appears to beta clue that
would lead to the detection of the guilty
parties. A number of persons were Cu..
pected of the crime by Mr. Shaw, one of
the proprietors of the establishment that
wu robbed, without the slightest
grounds, And among this number was
Mr. Wray, who, hearing that Mr. Shaw
bad accused him, called upon him to
to know upon what grounds he
was suspected, and demanded an
investigation. Mr. Shaw gave him
no satisfaction further t than to say
that he believed him guilty, and
Wray being unable to obtain an Investi
gation in any other way, brought Rotten
against Bhaw for slander, or "words
spoken.
The case was postponed from time to
time, notwithstanding the fact that Mr.
Wray's counsel, G. W. K. Minor, Esq.,
need Ma utmost endeavors to bring It to
trial, and • finally succeeded in getting it
on the trial list for September term, 1969,
over two years after salt Was brought.
In' the meantime Joseph Robbing, a
resident t.
o of Connellseille, had been ar
resed a charge of highway robbery,
tried, convicted and sentenced to the
Penitentiary, and a short time after his
Incarceration In that institution, it sp.
pears, Intimated to some one that he
anew who had robbed Shaw SY Estrtes
Rafe. He was visited by-Mr. Shaw, and
soon alter an application was made for
his pardon,
.on the ground that
he was an important witness in a
ease of burglary, said application being
recommended by Hon. Samuel A. Gil
more, President Judge, before whom he
was tried, In a private letter to the Gov
ernor, stating that the ends of Justice
could not be defeated, as there was an
Indictment pending against Robinson
for buiglary. Upon this recommenda
tion the pardon was granted and Robin
, son released from the Penitentiary.
In the meantime Mr. Wray was mak
ing preparations for vindicating himself
egainat the foul slanders uttered by
Shaw, never dreaming that there was a
charge pending against hint for the bur-.
glary, over .two years having elapsed
from the time it was committed, when
he was surprised by being arrested on a
warrant leaned by Justice Ashman, of
Conneliaville, charging him with bur
lary id September last, He entered ball
for a hearing, and on appearing before
the Justice, found that an information
had been made against himself and

withstanding, they returnbd a verdict of
A. motion was then made by counsel
for defendants for a new trial, and res.
NMI filed. The motion wax argued, and
the President Judge; we are Informed,weis
is favor of granting a new trial, but was
over ruled by the Associates,
Nothing now remained for the Court
to do but sentence the prisoner, and
Judge Gilmore, who, although • man
of strong prejudices, la a high minded,
honorable man, and a eotmd j exist, ell
dandy having doubts as to the guilt of
the prisoner, favored a nominal sentence,
brit was again overruled by the ides

the county treasury, and the defendants
were sentenced to the Penitentiary for

The only hope now ibr the defendants
was in the Executive, and an application
for pardon was. made. Petitions,
signed by many of our leading citizens,
Judges of the Courts of Allegheny

The Organ Concert Last Evening.
At the Third Preabyienan Church I
night was given a concert by Dr. John
H. Wilms, at the king of inetrnments,
the mamm4th organ. Yea, the king of
instrumental; for much moat certainly
have been the opinion of all those who
heard wlfh wonder the unlimited re.
sources of the organ under the hands of
a great linnet. For two hoary, elan! too
won elapsed, the audience wait spell
bound, listening to a most extraordinary
performance.
ABMs Pythoness of old, whose oracles
were given only to those who bad prey!.
only subdued her, the organ, whose
secret inspiration is hidden in a vast and
imposing structure, Beam to defy the
weakness of man. We understand that
a violinist or a flutist may master his
Instrument and experience a sense of
security when he comes on the
stage. But as we look at that
ponderous mass at those three kl.y
boards, at those two dilaters of stops,
and then turn our eyes to the organist
himself, so small in comparison. we feel
that there is going to be a struggle be.
tween mind and matter, and that to true,
genius alone will the monstrous Unarm
ment yield its oracles, while It mutters
only confused and unintelligible answers
to the man of ordinary talent; I - I
Without adding much faith' to the
systems of Gall and Lavater, we would
judge from the very appearance -of Dr.
Wilcox that he possesses the true temp.
erement of an organist. He has the broad
forehead of strong intellect, and the
broad back of strong will. Ills features
are sharply -chiselled, his lower lip
alighty prominent, denoting decision and
energy; and there is a Yeah in his eyes,
which would as well become a. General
on the eve of a battle, as it tecomes the
arthit poet, ready to measure himself with
the powerful instrument.
Ruskin has said that in order to judge
properly of a picture; one should be
somewhat acquainted with the pigments,
and with the resources and limitations of
the palette; and so none but those who
are familiar with the complicated mans;
facture of the organ, and the Innumera
ble Wades and combinations of the
orchestra, can fully appreciate the play
ing of Dr. Wilcox. His hands move as
quickly and gracefully on the stops
as others' hands would play on the key
board. We looked several time. with
amazement at the rapidity with which
he, M a de cresepado, would make all the
stops disappear one by ens, each auccee.
siva note thus gaining a new color, as it
neared to pianissimo. Indeed. under
this delicate treatment of the artist, the
stop board with its white knobs, pro
duced very much the same effect to the
eye u a sheet of paper just thrown to the
tire, when frdm its black, carbonized
surface the starry dots vanish In rapid
succession. - ... !
Dr. Wilcox'. representation of a thun
der storm, while mainly Intended, we are
told, to show all the capabilities of the
organ, shows also conclusively that the
author is a composer of no small merit.
Besides the great effectiveness which he
can always obtain 'vita comparative ease
from his great knowledge and command

of the instrume he whole work is

and written e main de maitre. His de.
scription of nature is comprehensive and

often make of Imitative music a meretri

If those of our cltizins who - could not
hear Dr. Wilcox, come to a full realiza

good fortune of being present as much
