M iBf ****■' 5 lines, paper inelu- In the winter of I was Stopping for a while with a planter fridnd, whose extensive cotton fields stretched along the jwest bank of the Boque Chitto, where that stream, after tra versing Pike county, in the State; of Mississip pi, crossed the State line into the- Parish of Washington, in Louisiana. The plantation lay wholly in the former State, buit its southern limit was formed by the liighway that led west ward from the Pearl River to the Mississippi. This road lay directly oh the surveyed bouu- the two States, so lhat two heighbojs, their morning ride, could shake hands fronj their saddles,'and each in his own g ta t f —the Mississippinn and the Lauisiaiftan standing each on his own soil. One morning business made itjneceoaary for me to ride to Franklinton, the county town of Washington parish, and the weather being un usually fine, my friend proposed to accompany me there. Wo had reached the State line: road, along which our route lay for a little way, wlien.pn approaching a thicket on the northern side of the path, our horses suddenly shied to the right and evidencipg great alarm, refused to pass the spot. \ ' Dismounting, and throwing the rein of my bridle over the pommel of my friend’s saddle, I entered the thicket, todisoovef the causa of their unusual excitement. I perceived in the dust of| the road, the ap pearance of something heavy having been drag ged through it in . the direction of the bank of the bayou, and following this track into the dark shadow of tbe clump, I was horrified at tbe sight that met my eyes. j 1 j . Before me lay tire body of A large, well-dres sed muii, who hnd been nmstjnhumanly mur dered, for beside » pistol shutlhough the bead, the throat was cut friom ear to! ear, and the em broidered vest nnd fine Ijnen shirt’ bosom were slashed and dabbled with! goults of .blood, from wide knife-wounds ip thq breiist nnd side. • The rtfivn bad hut just been jmurdered, for on lifting one of the arms in my busty examina tion, I observed that it was;yet purple, and .Scarcely cold. Beside the. body! lay a pair of leathern saddle-bags, which bad been rifled, nnd portions of their contents were scattered about the ground. ■ - 1' I My exclamation of horror at thebloo/ly spec tacle had attracted-the notice of my, friend, and hitching the animals, he; was) soon at my side. He .immediately recognized the man as Enquire ■Hendricks, a lawyer of standing in one of the neighboring coupties of Mississippi. While occupied in tiie examination of the body and the surrounding locality, a violent snorting and tramping was heard,cluse nt band, and’my friend, leaving me for ah instant, re turned, leading by the broken bridle a noble and greatly, excited animal, which he said was the horse of the murdered-man. • ■ He was a beautiful thorough-bred bay, known to every one in that portion of tbp country, and noted for his remarkable intelligence.; The horse, on being led to the spot, exhibi ted the utmost,’excitement, and trembling in every .limb,almost fell to the’ground with ter ror. As be stood thus, with bis fore feet bra ced forward his lung neck and head stretched toward tbe mangled remains of bis-niaster, his mane standing almost on end, jahd |his eyes ; glaring wildly from their* sockets, like halls of fire, I thought he presented' the most perfect and subl’ime.*picture of tejrror I had ever looked upon. For tv moment; the faithful creature stood thus gazing upon the fearful sight, and gradually approached the 1 body, nrfd after smel ling it, as,if to remove all lingering doubts of the identity, be reached forward to one of the outstretched hands, ns it lay, palm up, on the grassy ground, and licking if like an affection ate spaniel, evinced aifnchinept and grief, in a language stronger'than words could ever have done, . . .7, ’ i .Of course, this discovery pot an end tooar journey to Franklintdn for that day; and : gathering up tbescattered property of the rour ; dered man, a misleading the excited horse, we 1 returned to my friend's plantation—calling on ; the way, Upon the andjimphrting the Istartling’intelligehoe to.thera,' ' . ■; I A cold-blooded murder like this, was a ctr- rp TT 1,1 1 m m Schotcij tty of tfcc area ofjFmJiom and ifft Spccah of l&raXtfcg Jfcrform.

' THE HOUSE DETECTIVE, BY DB. a. C. SMITH.! rr IWELLSBORO, TIOGA COUNTY. PA., WEDNESDAY MORNING. APRIL 3, 1861. csmstaoce th'at'had not agitated the community Chitto for a lung time; and Squire I^ohdricksbelngwidely.known, and deservedly pppqlar, it created no small degree of njent. jDuriug the investigation that followed, it transpired that the lawyer was at the time of hjsdeath, in the possession uf.a sum ofmoney, which he,had collected for a client; and on the morning of the murder, was taking it to the .bank at Jranklinton, to deposit,-for the benefit .of bis employer. This money was missing, to gether with his gold '.watch. No .doubt, of cSurse, remained that the deed’ was perpetra ted by a highwayman. But notwithstanding several suspicious persons were arrested, noth ing was established against them, and they mere discharged. j ] iAt length several wests had passad away, apd although the commdnity were continually op the qui idee for the detection of the villain, toe excitement Jn a greatrdegree had subsided. (The month of March arrived, and I began to ttlrn my thoughts northward l and in anticipa tiion of the homeward journey, I had disposed of toy horse. ! In consequence of this, I was fdr’some time indebted to the courtesy of my friend for the animal which had belonged to ;tßei murdered lawyer, etill in the keeping of my ifniind. j ' I One day during the Spring session of the C|rcait Court of the county I happened to visit the town; and stopping opposite the court |hidse, to speak with my attorney, my horse, being well known as having been the property of Hendricks,.naturally attracted considerable attention. •. All at once the horse sprang to one siila with each force, as almost to throw me fmm the saddle and trampled upon the feet of mime of-bis friends, and snorting loudly, seem ed suddenly to be tilled with terror. jAs soon as I could recover my seat, I looked about the crowd for the cause of this extraoi dtnary conduct. At this moment I perceived a person approaching, evidently to ascertain the cause of the gathering. 1 had frequently seen this man’before, and knew he was the keeper a dining saloon in the place. Though not a mlati much thought of, he was looked upon as a* honest and harmless sort of a fellow. This uian come up; and ns he drew near, the horge exhibited the utmost alarm ; and snorting wild ■ljj, sprang, in spite of the rein, through the ctowd, and trembling violently, endeavored to etcajie in an opposite direction. This strange b havior of the animal was remarked by all; and several voices exclaimed in the same breath: j “ It’s Bill Kevins! the horse’s afraid of Bid Kevins I” “ By gracious 1” cried another, “ who knows hi it Bill, hers killed the lawyer 1 I say, aid fellow, go up to the critter, and let him smell tl e blood on yer handa !” Prom his first appearance, I had kept my eye upon this man ; and no sooner- had he caught si'btof the horse, than I observed a peculiar e: pression on his face ; and when the lastwords wire uttered—a. deadly palor spread over bis features, and he almost staggered, as lie re plied; ■ ’, Who says I killed lawyer Hendrick ! It’s a lie!”—and turning abruptly, he attempted to vi’ilk’, with all the uppdrent nonchalance he could assume, in the direction of his saloon.— s if an electric shock had struck me, the con ic lion of that man’s guilt rushed upon my find; and forcing the frightened animal across |e cmtrt-house square, till I overtook him, I ent forward iu my eaddip-aml shouted in his lr: . I “ Bill HerinsJ I say you murdered Esquire \endricks!” i j [Had a thunder,bolt struck the guilty wretch,' e could imt hare fallen more suddenly to the round. He was not .hardened in crime ; and its abrupt accusation of murder overcame lm; I JA warrant for his arrest was immediately nh ined; and he Was conveyed to prison to await his trial at the next session of the Circuit,Court is June; while I was required to remain in the pounty as a, witness in the case, | Itwas a raatter;of doubt whether the mur der jvas done within the jurisdiction of the courts of Mississippi, or those of the State of lioujsiami; and the prisoner’s counsel, it was ninted, would plead this question of venae in fivor'of their client. I I* body of the murdered man was found on the western side of the road, nnd some little distance from it, and consequently within the ternary of the State of Mississippi. This would be testified .to, by both pry friend and Hiysejf; but, at the same time, it could be pro ven bi? the the dust of the road, that the body, had evidently been dragged some distajioe. to the place where it tyas discovered, q/ierjthe deed bitd been perpetrated. The vi cjinity had been thoroughly searched, as was supposed, and no evideiice of tlje precise local ity of the death scene bad been detected, by vihich the venue could be established. In con sequence of tins it was feared that the'guilty I 1 in would escape the clutches of the law. Since the discovery of ,tlje murder, I bad not d occasion to' pass over the, road where it d been perpetrated, halving transacted my siness at Franklin ton, through the kindness. TV friend. But a few days previous to that , for the trial of Nevins, X found it necessary visit that town myself. ’ , [ started from my friendls plantation in com ity with several gentlemen of the neighbor itd, so ihat'wo formed quite a company qf rsetnen. As usual, of late, I Was mounted the beautiful; bay, which had been the pru rty of the murdered lawyer, nnd it was-on s occasion that the extraordinary intelligence the animal led to the complete elucidation elf the mystery of the murder. ~ , 1 When we reached the where the bloody net had been consummated, the animal Hogan to exhibit]the same symptoms of alarm He' had shown on the former occasion, and at the court-house | sqcare, notwithstanding the Horses of my companions; evinced no signs vihalever .of fear. We' bad passed the spot where the body df Hendricks had been discov ered, w hen tbe hOrse, in - spite of my guidance; Hashed Into the tangletfthicketswith me, and fjjrotng-his way through the grape vines and dverhanging limbs;' reached the roots of a large OITATOH. sweet-gum, when be flopped, and pawing the ground violently, exhibited signs of excessive agitation. ‘ i The gentlemen, as well as myself, having ail confidence in the remarkable intelligence of the beautiful creature, vre busied ourselves in ex amining the locality, convinced that this was the very scene of the killing of his master. And such it proved ; for one of companions soon picked up a large,peculiarly ahnped bowie knife, which was iramadiadely recognised fay several as -having been in the possession of Bill Nevins shortly previous to the murder; while on the roots of the vree were found tangled masses of hair, of n color comparing exactly with Ihat of the deceased. These facts were sufficient, not only to prove .the guilt of the prisoner, but also established ■the venue, thus making dll the initiatory pro ceedings in the case in strict accordance with the forms and requirements of the law. On the morning of the trial, I visitedthe pri soner in his cell, and stated the recent facts that bad been developed against him, and con jured him, if he was really guilty, to confess the fact at once, and no longer attempt to stand out against the strong array of testimony that would establish his guilt. . As I have said' before, the man was not a hardened criminal, this, doubtless, being, the first crime he bad ever been tempted to commit and with terrible agitation, most fearful to look upon, and which I can never forget, the poor wretch made a clean bosom of it, and confessed to the murder. He had become aware of the fact that Hen dricks was in possession of a large ; sum of money, and also that be intended to deposit it at Franklinton, and secretly leaving Holmes ville, he proceeded to the State line road to in tercept him. Meeting his victim, tawbom he was well known, by the roadside, he formed some pretext by which be induced him to enter the thicket by the sweet-gum, where the bloody deed was consummated ; and the robbery ac complished, he dragged the body to the spot where myself and my friend had found ,it. Thus it was, that a noble and imal, with a wonderful intelligence, not only pointed out the murderer of his master, but the very spot where the terrible crime had been committed, thus being the instrument, in the hands of Providence, of retributive justice.

She was 'sitll "single, though rather passed extreme youth.— Like; most pretty females,-she had looked too highj and estimated her own loveliness too dear ly. and now she refused to believe that she was not as charming ns ever. So, no wonder she still remained unmarried. - Lady C. bad about' five thousand pounds in the' world. She owed ■ about forty thousand pounds; so with all her wit and* beauty, she got intothe Fleet, and was-likely to remain there. Now in the time I spesk of every lady had her head dressed by a bather; and the barber of the Fleet was the handsomest-barber of the 1 city of London. . Pat&hilan was a great ad mi rer of the fair sex; and where’s the wonder?—" Sure Pat was an Irishman. It was one very ' fine morning.when Ptiilah wtis dressing her cap tivating head, that her ladyship took it intu ber mind to talk to him, and,Pat was well pleased, for Lady C.’s teeth were the whitest, and her smile the brightest incite world. “ So you are not married, Pat,” said she. : ‘‘Niver an inch! your honor’s, ladyship," says he. I “And wouldn’t you like to be married?” again asked she, i . “ Would a duck swijm ?” “ Is there any one you’d prefer?” “Maybe, madam,” said be. “You never heard of Kathleen O’fleily, down beyond Don eraile. Her father’s! cousin to O’Dimaghow, who’s own steward to Mr. Murphy, the under agent to my Lord Kingston, and— “ Hush!” says she; “sure I'don’t want to know who she is! But would she have you if you asked her?” . - s. “ Ah, thin, I’d only wish I’d be after trying that same.” “ And why don’t you ?” “ Sure I’m too pool.” And Philan heaved a prodigious sigh. “ Would you like to) be rich ?” “ Does a dog bark ?” “ If 1 make you rich will you do as I tell you ?” j “ Mille-marthes! your" honor, don’t be tan tilizing a poor boy." 1 *' “Indeed, lam not[j” said Lady C. So lis ten. How would youilike to marry me ?” “ Ah, thin, my Jadjy, I‘believe the King of Russia himself would ;be proud to do that same leave alone a poor divjjl like Pat Philan.” “ Well, Philan, if jou’ll marry me to-mor row, I’ll give you onelthousand pounds.” “0, whitahal'o! wnilabaloo 1 sura I’m mad or enchanted by the gjiud people,” roared Pat, dancing round the rodm. ,1 “But there are conditions,” says Lady C. “ After the first d ijj! of our nuptials you mast never see me again; nor claim me for your wife.” “ I don’t like thaljj’’ said Pat, far he had been ogling her ladyship most desperately. “ But remember nraihtecn O'Reiley. With *the money I’ll give you, you may go and mar ry her.” ;i “That’s thrue,” he. “But thin, the bigomy?” jj “ I’ll never appear Against you,” says her la dyship. “Only remij'mber you must take an oath never to calf me your wife after to-morrow, and neVer to go telling all the story.” “ Niver a word I’ll iver say.” r “ Well, then,” says; she; “there’? ten pound. Go and buy a licehcej and leave the rest to me ; and then she explained to him where he was to go and when he was to come, and all that. The next day Pat Was true to his appoint ment, and found two', gentlemen already with her ladyship. i, “ H ivc you got thelicense ?” says she. “ Here its, my lady,” says he ; and he gave it to her. She handed it to one of the gentle men, viewed it attentively. Then, calling in her two servants, ishe turned to the gentle man who was reading. And.sure enough, in ten minutes Pat Philan was the husband, the legal husband of the ■lovely L idy C. k “ That will do,” says she to her husband, as he gave her ft hearty kiss ; “ that’ll do. Now, ! sir, give me iby marriage certificate.” The old gentleman did so, aud ■ bowing respectfully to the five pounjl note she gave, him, he retired with his clerk’; foe sure enough,, I forgot to tell you that he was a parson. “Go and bring mo the warden,” says my la dy to one of her servants, i “ Yes, my lady,” says she; and presently the warden appeared, “ Will you be good enough,” said Lady C., in a voice that would call a bird off a tree, “ will you be good enough to send aud fetch me a huekrioy coach ? 1 wish to leave this pri son immediately.” , “ Your ladyship forgets.” replied he, “ that you must pay forty thousand pounds before 1 can let you go.” - ' “I am a married woman. You can detain my husband, but nut me,” And she smiled at Philan, who began rather to dislike the appear ance of things,. “ Pafdori me, my lady, ft is well known you ate single,” ■ . “T tell yon I am married.” 7- “ Where’s your husband ?” " There sir 1” and she pointed to the aston ished barber, “ there ,he stands. Here is my marriage certificate, which you can peruse at your leisure. My. servant? yonder were wit nesses of the ceremony. Now detain me sir, at your peril.V ~ ; . The warden was dumb-fuunded, and no won der. Poor Philan would have .spoken, W.aieir ther party would let him. The lawyer below was consulted. The result was evident. In half an hour Lady C. was fiee, and Pat Phi lan, her legitimate-husband, for debt to the amount of forty thou-aji’d pounds.' Well, sir, fur some time, Pat thought he was in a dream,and the' creditors thought they were still worse. The following day they had a meeting, and finding how they bud been trick ed, swore tim’d detain pour Pat forever.
