A BRIWKABLE MURDER TRIAL IN PERNSTL
veNTA.—The Corrigan murder trail, in West
moreland. county, Pa., is ono of tho most re
markable that has occurred in this country
since the celebrated Professor Webster and
Parkman case at Boston.
Corrigan is an old man, of some sixty to sev
enty yeah; of age. his wife disappeared on
the 29th of September last, and has never been
heard from since. Four or five days after, some
bones and part of a skull, declared by profes
sional men to be thosetitihtt "V being, were
found by some of the ghbors' in a large fire
which had been burning near Corrigan's resi•
dence in an open field. Corrigan had been ob
served starting it, at unusual hours. A smell
came from the fire like thfrf, of an animal carcass
burning. A button, similar to those worn upon
a woman's night dress was found in the fire,
also ono belonging to a man. Considerable
blood was found in different parts of Corrigan's
house although evident attempts had been
made to conceal it. All of the woman's dresses
that she was known to have, were found at
home in their usual place. This indicated
that she had not gone away voluntarily.
A -personage passing Corrigan's house, on
the night she was last seen, heard screams
coining from that quarter. A sled, having
marks of blood upon it, was found near the
house, with tracks, showing that it hail been
'evidently dragged in the night time by a horse,
near to the fire where the bones were frond
Corrigan and his wife. who lived alone, were
known to quarrel. Ile gives no satisfiictnry ex- i
planation of these circumstances. Ile pretends'
that he gave his wife money to go to Philadel
phia, and that the bones found in the fire were
old bones, scrapeil up in rubbish which lie was'
burning on his farm.—But this is rendered im
probable by the strong animal smell which came
from the fire.
After a trial of several days, and speeches
both for and against the prisoner by able ern
sel, he was convicted of murder in the first de
gree, and sentenced to be hung. No body was
ever found or identified as that of his wife.—
The circumstances arc such as we have stated.
(1:7"TIIR SL):6AY LIQUOR LAW CAsEs.--The
persons convicted at the last term of the Quar
ter Sessions, of Philadelphia, for selling liquor
on Sunday, were on Friday sentenced by th
Court to t. fine of $5O and thirty days' impri
sonment. The parties implicated are some of
the principal tavern keepers in the city. The
law requires that on conviction a fine of not leAs
than $lO nor more than $lOO, shall be imposed,
and imprisonment for not less than ten days
nor more than sixty. The Court has goge just
half way between the two extremes.
The Ledger gives the following account oil
the scene in Court, at the time the sentence
was passed upon the parties :
" Before the adjournment of the Court, the
defendants, who where convicted, being all
present, Judge Kelly proceeded to pass sentence.
The Judge made a few remarks, in which lie
toll the defendants, that as they were all turn
of intelligence, it was unnecessary for hits• to
dwell upon the offence of whieli they had been'
convicted. They knew the law and penalty
for its violation : they bad knowingly braved
the risk, and they now found, like others, that ,
the law was stronger than any single man.
The following named defendants were sen
tenced each to pay a fine of $5O and costs, and
to thirty days imprisonment in the County
Prison, viz
IVilliam Shinn, Robert G. Simpkin, Joules
G. Smith, James Elliott, Thomas Butz, Wil
Ham Carrels and John 11. Sheridan.
CO - StiocusG Occusasscs—A WOMAN BURN
RD TO BE AM. —Last, night, a little after mid
night, Officer BENJAMIN GRAY discovered that
a small dwelling in Dehaven's Court was on
fire. Smoke was issuing from the second story
windows. The Officer gave the alarm and
aroused a man and his wife who slept in the
third story. Upon proceeding to the second
story room some articles of clothing were found
to be burning: the tire was speedily extin
guished, and the smoke was allowed to escape
from the room, when a horrible sight was pre
sented. Lt seems that an old lady mimed ANNA
BARBARA FOSTER, occupied the room. She
wao found sitting in a chair quite dead, with
either clothes burned off and her body dread- !
fully scarified. •It is not known how the fire
originated. The deceased' was eighty years of
age. The Coroner held an inquest in the case
.this afternoon. From circumstances it is !
lieved that the old lady was rubbing herself
with alcohol, for a swelling in the limbs, at the
time she took fire. The jury rendered a verdict
of death from burns accidentally received. The
deceased leaves several grown up children.
Philadelphia Bulletin, 16th.
[ -- Several young doctors in Washington city
on Saturday night last proceeded to the Alms
house grave yard, with a horse and wagon, to
take off a deceased woman. Her husband was
near watching them, and firing upon them, put
them to flight, leafing behind the horse and
wagon, of which ho took possesion.
1:1"' TRUTH STRANGER TITAN FACTION."-
Such would seem to be the case with the reme
dy now before the public, known as Carter's
Spanish Mixture. Its powers in many instances
seems to be really miraculous, and especially in
the radical and perainanent cure of some of the
most terrible forjais of disease with which man
kind are altlicteM. Scrofula, which seems en
tirely to bailie the skill of Physicians, has been
cured in many instances by only a FEW 110 -
Tim of this invaluable compound. Syphilis,
another of the most awful scourges, has been
cured by Carter's Spanish Mixture in over 500
cases. It acts specifically on the Liver and 1
secretions, and is the best alterative or blood
purifier yet discovered. It has gained reputa
tion wherever known which cannot be ap
proached by any former effort of science, and i t is
prescribed by physiciaris and testified to by ma
ny of the most eminentpublic men, of the coun
try, many of whom say they considr it &matter
ef duty to make its merits generally known,
and cordially recommend it to the afflicted.
MODERN INVENTIONS
We know of no invention "r modern times that de
serves or is destined to occupy it M:tiler niche in the
temple of film°, than the discovery or invention of the
Vegetable Epiletic Pills for curing Epilepsy, or Fall
ing Fits; Spasms, Cramps, and all the various loodi
tientiont of Nervous Disease. /h.. S. nom,. of
108 Baltimore street, Baltimore, Md., the inventor, is
certainly entitled to the best. wishes of all the benevo
lent portion of mankind, who experience a pleasure,
by the alleviation of human suffering. Wls.m Dr.
Hance first prepared these Pills, be intended them
solely for Fits, Cramps and Spasms ; hut Subsequent
experience satiefnetoril . v proved to him, that in addi
tion to their remarkable sanative properties in this
class of diseases. they exert a perfect control over the
entire nervous system. He was then induced to try
them in eases of Neuralgia, Tic-Doloreux, NerVOUN
Headache, Palpitation of the licart, Incipient Paral
ysis, Hysteria, Muscular Debility , and a host of
minor diseases, springing from a lack of nervous
energy, in all of which his were eorwned
tel the most sanguine success. Persons at a dis
tance, by writing and Sending a remittance to Dr.
Hance, eon have the medieine forwarded by mail to
their post office toldress, he plying the postage. The . (
prices are for a single hex, $3, two boxes, $5, or $24
