The deceased was about 25years 9f age, of German origin, rather short in stature, vtith brown hair and blue-eyes, and respeota bly dressed. Beside her was lying a razor, closed and having no marks of blood upon it; a bottle half full of laudanum; and the sheath of a knife, 14 inches long. The Coroner's Jury- returned- a verdict that the deceased came to her death by the hands of some per-. eons unknown. It is said she was soon going the road leading to the woods, a few hours be tore the murder, preceded by two men ap parently Germans, who are . ,supposed to have been the murderers. Blood was tracked to a spring about three quarters of a mile above the place where the body was discovered.— The druggist whose name is on the labbl it :fixed upon the bottle containing tne laudanuth, has no recollection of the deceased. The body has been recoguized by Jao,lo Schlegel, a black• smith, living up town, as that of bis,wife. lie is a German, unable to speak English, and has been a few years in this country. It appears that the couple were Catholics, and had been married by aft alderman. and that some per sons had been endeavoring to sop - crate them on pretext that's marriage not sOlemnizd by a priest was void and illegal. On Saturday evening Schlegel left his home for a short time, and on his return found his wife gone together with all the .money he had in the house, and a number of other articles. Soon after ho re ceived a letter, written in a masculine :hand, but purporting to come from his wife stating that she had been unfaithful to him, and in-r tended to go into a fluttery, but that if she was' -disappointed in her &sight' of' getting into one-of those institutions, she would seek her death either by the knife or poison, Schlognl has boon arrested on ammo suspicion' of being in • some way implicated In the murder. and has had several examinations before the May or; but thus far nothing positive has been elicitod 4 1 e, fasten, the .crime upon him.
