place?.! HellevtiV 'yesterday, t.x
the sa-U'iice cf the'law.; The. act f.-f which
he s-li.'.-iei Was one of pecnfinr turpitude tliC
wnml audi deliberate muruL-r ot Ins u icnu :u.
beai-s'aetvr. Wlt matle the ea3 siill' more
aggravated was the cironustance ihiU a trieaa-
lv act which the victim was perlonumgioriu
murderer gave him the opportunity to commit
the deed. The tiro were riding together in a
wa?cn, the former being Jn a state of pattial
intoxication, when the-. latter struck Li ni sevc-r
ral blows ou the head with, a hatchet, i ractur
iu? his skull every tiiue.. After he was dead
his murderer took a horse shoe and, with the
aid of the hatchet, made 'a wound on his fore
head as if he had been kicked by a horse, and
then tumbled him intothe road? and ran tor a
doctor. .
. "W'hea the doctor arrived , accompanied by
several neighbors, the man was. dead. A hasty
iii4iiesl. wa&htld, and ;v verdict rendered that
'-the deceased came to his d.'uth by being
kicked in the head bv a horse." He was then
as hastily buried tumbled, into a; rough, box
witlhout being dressed in grave clothes, or even
the blood anrl dirt with which he was lcdab
bled washed from lus.'face and ' head. In. a
sliori time some circumstances occurred which
excited a suspicion that he did not come to his
death accidentally. It was noticed .then that
his widow and Orban were in correspondence,
and a letter from him to her was intercepted,
in which he recommended her to "sell oll'her
property as soon as possible, and nu'Ct hiei at
a certain place, as. .tilings were oeginniug iw
lenk out." '; ..." . : .
Upon thisTJrban -.wax." arrested, tlie body; of
the murdere'd'iiian"e'xu;;med, and a. post mor
tern examination held.: wiien it was. discovered
that he had received five blows on the head
willi a hatchet two with the hammer part and
three with ! the edge. The wound with the
horse shoe was known to . have been made af
ter death by no blood being .settled around it
as in the other wounds, showing that .it the
time it was given the circulation hud ceased.
On the trial the chain of evidence against the
prisoner was so complete that not the shadow
f a donht could exist as to his guilt, and the
jury had no difficulty in agreeing on a verdict
of guiliv. After sentence was pronounced, a
bill of exceptions was filed" in the Supreme
Court, but they were not sustained, and Exe
cutive clemency wrs appealed to in vain, r.s
there was not the slightest ground for even
mitigation of sentence, much less for pardon.
Between, eleven and one o'clock yesterday,
the sentence of tfce law was carried into effect
in the yard of the county jail, in the presence
of very few spectators. A large crowd of
persoaa had assembljd ouUidewith the expec
tation of witnessing the spectacle, and were
fruit e clamorous for the execution taking place
outside, but were 'overruled by the proper au
thorities. They manifested their disapproba
tion by a shower of brickbats, several of which
struck members of the military company pres
ent to prevent disturbance. Two of the num
ber was knocked down and badly hurt. Order
was quickly restored, however, and the exe
cution proceeded without further interruption.
The prisoner was verv much emaciated by his
long confinement, and looked exceeding hag
gard. After he liad bung about three-hours,
he was taken down and delivered to his friends
for burial, and thus ended the last scur.e in
one of the most dreadful tragedies which has
ever been performed in the "West. An execu
tion has not taken place in St. Clair county
before for '2$ years.
Remab K.vnr.x CoixrinExoE. A correspon
dent of the Petersburg Express1:, writing lnm
Cliatlestown-, Virginia, relates the following
series of incidents, which if true, are certain
ly very sti.ular:
Wasliiiigton was accustomed to wear two
seal U his watch, one of gold and the. oilier
of silver. Upon both of them .the letters 'G.
W." wit- engraved, or rather ' cut. 'These
seals he wore as early as 17.-l, and they Were
about his person on the terrible day ofBrad
dock'.s defeat. Oh that day he lost the. silver
seal. T!ie gold one remained with the Gen
eral until the day of Ids death, and was then
given by him to hi nephew, a gentleman of
Virginia, who carefully preserved it " nut ili
about seventeen years ago, when in riding over
lus fjrni, lie dropped it, and could never re
cover it. The other 'day, the gold seal, lost
seventeen years ago, was jiloxcci vp, recog
nized from" the letters "G. W." on it, and
restored to the son of the gentleman to whom
Washington had presented it. . At ajmost the
same mimeni, i,ie suvor seai, iosi m no
just one hundred years ago was plowed up on j
the site of the battle iu which Braddockwasj
defeated, and in lik manner recognized from
the letters -G. W, ;" so that in a very short
time the two companions will be again united.
I have this statement Jrom the most reliable
possible source namely,' from'the gentleman
himself, who has thus had restored to him
these precious mementoes of .his great ances
tors. The aifair is but one more proof of n;i
old stated maxim, that truth beggcrs fiction in
strangeness. I repeat there is riot the slight
est exaggeration or mis-statement in the mat
ter, and no room for mistake..- In legal phra

Prom the drug store the flames extended to
the glass warehouse of F. & J. McKec & Co.,
on Wood street, which was burned down. -With
this building the fire was checked on
Wood street.
On Front street, the foundry warehouse of
Robinson & Minis, a two story building, ad
joining the drug store, was crushed in and de
stroyed by the falling of the walls of the latter,
which extended two or three stories above the
roof; but for this misfortune the buildingwould

The walls of the drug store were thick and
