The Coroner's jury setting over the body of Mrs. Davis, found at Four Mile Run on Tuesday morning, reassembled at Alderman Donaldson’s office yesterday morning, when some additional testimony was heard. A son of deceased, ton years old, who was at the rafili at Michaw’s on Monday night, testified to starting home with his father and mother at eleven o’clock, both being very drunk. They went towards home, but on the way the mother sat down, while witness and the father went home. They afterwards turned back to Wuoro the woman was, and found her ly ing on the ground. She did not speak.— They tried to get her home, but could not All her clothes were on her. She was lying very near the run. Witness and his father staid with her some twenty min utes, hut failing to get her up, they went home, and father went to bed. They went back a second time, and found part of her clothes off. This was before daylight. She was froze when we went back the second time. She did not speak, Sne had shoes on, bat lost them on the way. She fell on the spot where she was lying. She had fallen once before oo her face, and father had lifted her up. They were not quar rolling on the way, but Davis did not strike deceased. She was deal when they returned the seconed time. Dr. McCook, who made the post mortem examination, described the condition of the body. There was a fiesh wound over the left eyebrow, but no fracture of the skull and no injury sufficient to produce death. Wounds of this character might have boon produced by a blow or fall.— There were other woands ol a trivial ehar ac.er uu the body, which wimess thought might have been received in her attempts to rise. The blow over the left eyebrow was sufficient to have stunned the deceas ed, but the exposure to which she was sub jected w»a thj immediate causo of her d'-atfc. A person stated hero that he had examined a roc-k near where the d'-::“iu<\] lay, and which was it,. : -_d with th-vd. I. corresponded it; sio with the charac ter of the wound, and he had no doubt but that the cut referred to had been made by her falling on it. Dr. ii'Cook, t gave it as his opinion that the wound «, r ceived in this way, and accounted for her nudity by stating that she might oasiiy have torn the clolhesi.fi iu her death. After this seme additional testimony was lakoD, all going to Bhow that tho de ceased was probab.y sturin_d when she 1011, and being unable to assist herself, and her husband being too drunk to do anv. thing for her, the poor creature died from the combined effects of liquor and cold. Tho jury returned a verdict to this effect, and Davie, who was in jail, awaiting the verdict of the jury, was discharged. Distressing Suicide.— On Taesday evening Coroner MeOlungbeid an inquest oq the body of a middle ag<*d man named George Jacoby fouud hanging from a tree on the farm of Mr. Fishur, m Hampton township. The deceased, who resided in Russ township, had been for sorao tune leading a dissipated life, and about five weeks ago, loft home in a fit of anger,bid ding his wife and family a final good-bye. His son started in pursuit of him the same evening, and trac d him lo Mr. Fisher’s, where it was ascertained he had stopped over night. After this all trace of him was lost, until Tuesday, when his remains were found hanging from a tree on Mr. F.’s faim. A verdict in accordance with the facts was rendered. Committed to Answer —James Mc- Creoly, husband of tho wom&o drowned in the canal at Duquosne borough, last week, had a hearing before Mayor Drum on Tuesday. Mrs. Rafferty, of Snyder’s Hol low, testified to deceased having been at her house on the afternoon of her disap pearance. McCreely came in, but re mained an hour after his wife, who drank freely there, had left. A German woman living in Duquesno borough saw. about the time Mrs. MiC’s body waa found, a man, whom she did not recognize, sitting on the canal bank, two hundred yards above, monring and talking to himseli in. cessantly. Mrs. Bolings,-residing near the spot where the body was found, thought there could not have been a quarrel or struggle without her knowledge. Though there was no evidence to sustain tbe charge of murder, Mayor Drum did not feel jus tified in discharging McCreely and ac cordingly commitiel him to answer. Oil on the Wharf.— Wm. S. Birsell, President of the Hand Street Bridge Co., has addressed a letter to the Mayor, noti fling him of the danger to that structure from fire and also that in case of accident the company will hold the city responsi ble for all damages.

AD ENGLISH STORY. _______ i [OO2 TxseeDvaoirera rCsr The inn’s best froom—l took the trouble to examine it, in the interest of my young olient—was shabby in. the extreme. It had two beds in it, and there was down in the centre of the room a sliding partition, which, on an emergency, would convert the apart ment into two. Jt was into this room, then, at ten o’olock, on this wild spring-evening, that the two sisters, with the infant, were ushered. The rain dashed against the two latticed windows as if their de struction was the sole object of the storm; and the wind struck tho large sloping roof of the house with such gusty blows that the sisters more than once believed that some one must be at work in some mad fashion above their heads, The small candle that the ill appoint ed inn afforded them flared and flicker ed in the little candlestick, and threat' ened each moment to expire, so they hastened to rest And there was tho gentle sisterly caress, the kind “Good nightthe “God bless you, Anna !” and “God bless you, Rachel!” and the little one was kissed and oommenaed to Heaven, and the light was put out; and then Rachel, (rum some cause that she could not de~ • flue, burst into a passion of tears, aud 1 sister Anna called out: ' “Rachel ! Rachel 1 what is it? Why do you cry when you arc going to bo so happy “1 cannot help it, Anna ! My heart is heavy—so heavy ! And yet how much we have to he thanklul for, in the kindness ol your unde, who promised to make Earnest (my infant son) his heir.” And then Anna laughted and spoke in hadinatre, to raise her sister’s spirits : “To he sure, Rachel; and 1 go to the wall and shall not tret a husband, nil on account nf your little Earnest, when I lully iutuid to make Uuole Ralph leave me everything. Gome, now, go to sleep. Good night 1” “Good night, dear!” ibis little dialogue was overheard by the landlady of the itin. It was noth ing in itself, but it appeared in the de positions against Anna as though writ ten in letters of blood. The Bisters slept. The little Earnest slept liis last sleep on the breast of his mother. The rain still caum' djjwn in torrents, and the wind still howled round the old in. One o’clock hud just been pro claime ! by tiic tall, old iashioned ch ck in the bar, when the landlord, land lady, chambermaid and boots, were aroused by such a succession of piercing shriek.--, from the room occupied by the sisters, that they one and all made a in that direction, with such hasty snatched up garments as terror enabled them to prooure, and with the only light that was always upon a slab in the pas sage. The sight that met their eyes was a terrible one. It was one that has con verted the old roadside inn into a mel ancholy one, for none would sleep in it again. The door of the ohamber was wide open, and ftaobel, the mother of the infant boy, was lying half in and half out of the room, on her faoo. Anna was sitting up in bed, looking soared and bewildered, and seemingly not con scious that her hands face and clothing about her were daubed in blood. Tho landlady shrieked “Murder !” The landlord called for help. A traveler who had arrived on foot at the inn some hours after the sisters, and who had given his name as MrJ Brown, hurried along an ancient corri dor, at tho furthei end of which he slept, to the place of confusion. “Good heavens,” he said, “what is the matter It was terrible then to see Anna, as unconsciously she paseed her blood stnined hands over her face, and look ed about like one in a dream. It’s murder said the landlady “The ohild !’’ cried the landlord .here was a ohild 1” “What child V said Mr. Brown; - don’t see any child here.” Upon this the landlady uttered a ter rible cry, and from between the bod on which Anna was and the wall she lifted the lifeless and murdered body of the little Ernest. The little one was stabbed to the heart with a stool ornamental paper knife. The sisters were robbed at Liv erpool, or on board the vessel from Ceylon, of a trunk in which that paper knife might have been, lint one fact was admitted. The knife belonged to Anna, and she bought it at Oolumbo This was the case. On her recovery "rom a swoon, which lasted many hours, Rachel made the following statement : Soon after the conversation we have recorded with her sister, she had gone to sleep with her ohild ou her arm, but finding him restless, and starting occa sionally, she had gently withdrawn her arm from him, and had been persuaded that he slept soundly. How lon<* she remained in this state she knew not bnt whaf awakened her was a faint sob, which she fek certain was the last sound uttered fey the little Ernest in life. It aroused her in a moment, and she sprang out of bed on finding that the ohild was not with her, and mechanically ran to the door of the room which she flung open. And here comes a remarkable state ment from Rachel. I give it in her own words: “On opening the door, I saw that from some light below (that was the oil lamp in the passage,} there oame up . a strange reflection on the wall of the | corridor, which was to the right hand ; j and through that reflection, passing along it, as if stooping to avoid it if possible, I saw the shadow of a man, large, and not very well defined, owing to its exaggerated dimensions; but still, there it was, and it passed away into the gloom at the further end. of the corridor, and disappeared.” [To ie continued.] T. fAVL HUUUB.
