News of the Week.
—Affairs in the Gulf of Mexico are fast verging towards
a solution of the Isthmus problem. The news brought by
the steamer Washington indicates that not only the most
rateable interests of the United States are in imminent
danger, but that even our honor as • asthma is involved la
the attitude assumed by the British naval official/ on the
Central America station. The steamer Washington, on
reaching the shore of Nicaragua, and in the neutral harbor
of San Juan, was subjected to the deliberate insult of •
visit and search, and this in the most wanton manner,
there being in the immediate vicinity American vessels of
war, to whose officers an appeal might have been made in
case there was any reason to suspect the Washington or
her passengers of being engaged in an unlawful enterprise.
This conduct, taken In connection with the recent disclaim
er on the part of England of tar pretended right of visita
tion and search when complaints were made of the ooa
duct of the offiriers of cruisers on the coast of Cuba, is well
calculated-to pi:evoke not only the liveliest indignation at
the Insult, but a still more bitter feeling, in oonsequenee
of the bad faith involved in a continuance in such affronts
after the promise of their abandonment. The perfidy of
Greet Britain in this act is as marked as her insolence sad
injustice. And it seems almost an irresistable inference
that war has been resolved on against this country by
Prime* and England, and that those countries are only
waiting for a suitable moment to let slip the hounds at our
throats, or a favorable pretext for their justification. It
was no doubt thought that Walker and his deluded follow
ers might tarnish some such excuse for interference on the
part of England and France with the affairs of Central
America, and there is every reason to suspect that this
same outlaw has been aided or cajoled by agents of these
Governments to persevere in his wanton and mischievous
attempts to embroil affairs in Nicaragua. William Walker
is a nuisance, we admit frankly, with his reckless gang of
Allibasters ; but the United States have, before this, under
the order of the President, arrested his career, and the
American navy have officers, like Capt. Paulding, who
wonkl,irevent this man from doing the people of Central
America any harm; so that there is no necessity for French
or English Beets and armies to go out to capture this Gov
ernor Of Nicaragua and his motley crew.
—We observe by our exchanges that Mr. Crittenden has
made a bid for the Presidency of the L'uited States. Ile
was paying a abort visit to New York, a few days ago, and
was waited upon by the Republican Committee. Mr.
Crittenden expressed fear that the people would look upon
his visit as someway connected with Presidential upin•
Lions, and hoped thou, present would disabuse the public
mind of such an impression. lie said "I am not a can—
didate for the Presidency. I sometimes lee my name
tr y osted by the public press, and myself spoken of as a cis
dldate for the Presidency. I es it wiliest regret—
never. lam no candidate for the Presidency." •`You
may count upon me always, though, as a faithful oompat•
riot and co-operator with you in ail your efforts. Let
those who please, seek for it, lam not one of them." The
announcement was received with great applause. If snob
disinterestedness and self'aerifice does not procure the
nomination, then Mr. C. will muss a figure, certain.
—A cue was tried in New York this week that estati
!libel an important principle in relation to the liability of
Directors of corporations. By it they are put on a level
with other persons and made to answer for falsehood, trick
cry and fraud. The case grew oat of the explosion of a
"Bubble and Squeak" Insurance Company, called the Weir
star Fire;lnsurnnee Company started some time since, under
flaming pretensions, bat soon exploded. The Directors
falsely represented that the company bad a capital of
$150,000, all paid in. Upon this falsehood it procured an
investment of money In the concern from a Mr. Wakeman.
Be lost his money and sued the Directors to recover it
Lack. The Court decided that the Directors must hand
over the money which had been procured by a fraud.—
This is an important and righteous decision. It affirms a
common sense notion that Directors are as much bound
to keep truth on their side, and to transact their business
ecordlng to the rules of honesty and fair dealing, as any
other folks.

nal says that last week, a depraved wretch named Stephen
Lowry was sentenced in one of the Brooklyn warts to State
prison for life, [or committing a rape on a little girl only
eight years of age.' No sooner is the old sinner—he is 50
year' of age—in his cell, than petitions have been started
here, praying the Governor to grant him a pardon, op the
ground that proof tan be produced that be was subject to
frequent aberrations of mind' I could not believe this, if
one of those petitions bad not been poked under my nose
thisimorning by a professional "humanitarian," who @eked
me to sign. There is but one condition upon which the
Governor ought to grant the prayer of these people, and
that is, if Lowry be let out of prison, they consent to take
his place at Sing Slag.

landed her dusky passengers at that port, togntlier with
provisions, clothing, and other stores furnished for their

—During the last two weeks the sore throat disease has
ranged in Eingston, Canada, and in that short time many
children baee been carried to their graves after a short ill

the fact that it operates much lib* croup. A very high
fever is one of the symptoms. The throat does not feel
sore until usually the second day after the disease is upon

limbs, and a alight fever. The editor of the Kingston
Free Press mentions three of one family who have been
a i multanisously attacked with the disease, one very set

is not one which will be received in Europe with
/non pnitonaiinseensia‘Lh an the.position he her
taken in relation to our claims upon the Spenish
monarchy, and the acquisition of Cuba by the
United States government. Bat while ,this is
true in regard Europe, it is very evident his
views will meet the approbation of a large ma
jority of theliimmeroial and industrial interests
of our own country. In saying this we of course
do not include the politicians of the opposition,
or that class of our people at the north whose
political ideas cannot expand with the natural
growth of the country. The men that have op.
posed territorial acquisition heretofore will be
slop to acknowledge the necessity of further ao
qnisition. Still there is strong feeling among
the masses, as lull as among our commercial ; in.
terces, that Cuba is necessary to us in a national
point of view. It has been long conceded, as the
Post says, that Cuba is the only point in this
continent where the policy of the United States
comes directly and tangibly in collision with that
of European cabilieta. The declarations now
made by the President, liking to the peaceful
acquisition of this island by purehase, will mili
tate against all the theories of European diplo •
many, which maintain that a barrier is necessary
to the extension of the power of the United
States southward. hitherto, the United States
has afforded a generous protection to the Spanish
government in maintaining its supremacy in this
island. ' It has probably been this position alone
on the part of our government, which hut pre
vented a revolution and declaration of indepen
dence on; the part of the inhabitants of Cuba.—
But redently the power which we have at
least treated upon principles of nonintervention,
evenjt-we have not fostered it, has in a degree
beeWitrned • unjustly to our annoyance. Our
flag has been insulted, and our citizens ill treated
by it. Our claims have been baffled by a sys
tem of diplomatic trifling in regard to their al
lowance and settlement, which cannot be boriie
much longer with dignity to ourselves. And
not only this, but the Spanish government in
Cuba is made the secret agent in carrying out
schemes against us, which openly avowed, would
be sufficient cause of war.
The wholesome tendency of our commerce to,
wards the south, is trammelled, an in a great de.
gree checked by the exercise of Spanish power
in Cuba. This island not only commands the
maritime outlet of more than half the sovereign
States of the country, but its relative position to
the routes across the Ishtmus, between our great
fantio and Pacific domains, will enable it in a
years to command channels of American
w
e of the most gigantic importance to the wel
fare of our people on both rides of the continent.
Qur interests on the Pacific shores , are daily
developing, by the opening of new routes to the
western *bore of our own possessions, and the
commerce of Mexico, Japan, Chins, the Sand.
wich Islands, the Western Coast of South Ame
rica, and even Australia and India, are inviting
our most interested attention in this direction.—
This trade mast, in a few years, become immense
and a large portion doll articles of bulk must
pus over the Isthmus routes. New States, too,
are growing up in the west, which, witbia few
1 ,
years, will give a vast impulse to our D tional
developement on the Pacific shores. In t e way
of all the great trade routes which we haie enu.
merated, lies Cuba, and its possession involves
not their utility only, but their permanency and
safety. Had such an obstruction existed to the
trade of any of the great commercial nations of
Europe, it would long ago have been removed.
The universal approval of the nation must in
this view of the matter, meet Mr. Buchanan's
announcement in his message, that the settle
meat of our claims against Spain is to be "final.
ly" attempted, and a negotiation entered into to
purchase Cuba. The movement is ono of the
greatest importance to the people, and has not
been thus formally announced in advance of the
popular desire upon the subject. Congress should
lose no time in acting upon his su : ,,:estion, and
placing at his disposal the means to make a pay
ment upon the purchase, as a means of binding
a treaty when negotiating with the Spanish Gov ,
ernment. This would silence all cavil upon tie
part of the powers of Europe as to the honorable
nature of the transaction, and also convince them
of our necessity of obtaining control of it. The
advantages would not be to ourselves alone, far
in the great systems of national development
which are now going on in the world, commercial
advantages like that to be obtained in the acqui
sition of Cuba by the United States, are a Imo.

A NVIV Pao.nixrr.—We received a pamphlet,
One time ainoe, from Col. Stiownstv, Director
of the Mint at Philadelphia, in which he advo
cates a plan for a new paper currency based on
the deposits in that institution. ACcompanying
it was a bill to that effect which we learn he in•
tends to lay before Congress. It 'authorises they
Mint to issue certificates on the tdeposits of gold
bullion, and of afiniliar certificates by the Mint;
and all the Sub-Treasurers, on deposits of gold
coin. These certificates are to be redeemed only
at the offices which issued them, the theory of
the process being that gold deposited will always
be kept on hand to meet the certificates when
presented for payment. The Colonel claim that

will serve ass'great bajance,w heel to prevent
commercial crmistbances in times of panic and

the loss by wear, clipping, or awating; that the

fealty to the Democratic 'organisation, with his
wince last winter on the Kagan question, and
especially his refusal to attend\the commies of
his party at that time—but, nnotwithetanding
this we cannot shut our eyes to the 'fact that his
removal from the chairmanship of that eommit.
tee el this time, no matter what the tnoti*may
bevel been, is not 'calculated to harmonise, the
partth or allay the feeling which exists more or
less in its ranks that the Judge is being perse_ •
voted for opinion mks. Speaking of the matter
the correspondent alluded to says:
"In the Senate caucus to arrange the commit
tees, it is understood that Judge Douglas, who is
absent and not expected here until January, has
been superseded ma chairman of the Committee
on Territories. This was not done with the view
of proscribing the Judge, as might be inferred,
but because his views do not coincide with the
President. He is still retained on the committee.
The new chairman, (Hr. Green) although dis.
tinguished for the prominent part he took in the
Kansas discussions at the last session, in oppo
sition to Judge Douglas, is nevertheless the
Judge's friend. Among those who opposed the
change at this time was Gov. Bigler, between
whom and Judge Douglas there has been some
acerbity of personal feeling, growing out of the
discussions of last session, and he felt it to be
incompatible with good taste and good judgment
to make the change in the absence of lb. Judge.
As far as I can learn, it is the general desire of
the friends of the Administration to place no
barrier in the way of the Judge in determining
his future course, but to leave him free to choose
his own path in his own way. If he chooses to
come in and co-operate with the friends of the
Administration, he will be received into full
communion. If not, ho must be the arbiter of
his own political fortune, and the precursor of
his own future destiny."
INDIANA SKNATORS.—Oat readers are aware
that the Legislature of Indiana recently passed a
resolution declaring that the election of Messrs.
BRIGHT and 'Emelt "was illegal, unconstitutioni
al, and void, and that therefore, the State of In
diana is not, at this time, legally and constitu
tionally represented in the Senate of the United
States." It is further rumored that, iu conse
quence of this declaration, the Legislature will
proceed to elect Senators, who will appear at
Wa l ahington and claim the seats now occupied by
Wigan. Bright and Fitch. The entire futility
of ibis proceeding, after the claims of those gen
tlemen to hold their seats have been affirmed by
the Senate, is ably shown in the following ex
track from an articlq in the National Intel'igen.
"Nothing more, we presume, was designed to
be tiffeoted by the passage of this resolution than
to make a public expression of dissent from the
conclubion reached ky the Senate in its decision,
and to stand as the formal utterance of the opin-
ions of the majority of the Legislature in the
premises. If the majority
has decided the quee.
tion improperly, it terms a legitimate source of
public criticism, bui. offers no occasion for sny

A Siam —On t e reception of President Du
cuastares Messing. at Middleburg, Snyder Co ,
the Democrats hel. a meeting in order to testify
in a proper mantle , their grajtification at the tone,
temper an mute+ of this admirable and pa.
triotic state paper. The assembly' was very
large, and the utmost enthusiasm pre'esiled. Not
a Democrat dissented from the positions laid
down by Mr. Buchanan, while large numbers of
the Opposition expressed their satisfaction with
the plain, dignified, and statesmanlike manner in
which the President discusses the various topics
of National interest introduced in his message.
The foreign policy of the President especially
useete the commendation of the people of Snyder
county, who recognise in the doctrines promul
gated by Mr. Buchanan the best safeguards to
the continued peace spa prosperity of the Nation.
This expression of public sentiment in Snyder
county may safely be taken as an index to that
of the State. The Opposition may rail at the
message, but the masses will ratify it in all sec
tions of the Commonwealth.
Mg, The spirits, under the tuition of the me
diums, are getting very accommodating, if we
an believe all we read in the papers. A spirit,
not long since, waited on Judge Epttostos and
wanted to take a drink through an earthly
medium. The Pawtucket Gazette relates the
following pleasing incident of spiritual comma.
nicatiot which quite exceeds the Judge's story:
"An enthusiastic believer was relating to a
skeptic the spiritual performances to which be
could testify, and among other things said that
on a certain occasion the spirit of his wife, who
had been dead seVeral years,
returned to him,
and seating herself upon his knee, put her arm
around him, as muck to his! gratification as she
used to when living. "You do not mean to say,"
remarked the skeptic, "that the spirit of your
wife really embraced and kissed you?" "No, not
exactly that," replied the spirit believer,
"but
her spirit took possession of the body of afemale
medium, and through her embraced and kissed
me." We presume that believers are often as
willingly deceived as this man was.

dressed to the editor of the Erie Cf4p
and published in that and mat*tba er
papers, corning from Mr. Lane, President of te
Erie Gas Company, in which manifesto it is
most coolly and modestlyl . anserted that, "the
only reason why the lamps have not been light. ,
ed, that I am aware of, is, that a majority of the
City Councils, without reason, in disregard of the
public sentiment, and in violation of their eon•
tract made with the citizens end the Glaatjentps•
ay, have voted the light ens sad left the City'
in darkness."
Now, Mr. Editor, let u au who in guilty of
this "violation" of contract between the eitisene
and the Gas Company. In 1855 the Gas Com•
ploy procured the passage of a law authorizing
the Councils to contract with the Gee Company
fer the lighting of streets, or parts of streets,
wtienever a majority of the property o aid
petition for the same. Under that , a
part of Sixth, State and some other Streets, ere
lighted. With that arrangement, so faill.l
know, the people were satisfied, but it seems the
Gas Company' id not like it; hones, in 1857 the
Gas Company, o at lout some of the office's);
cl \
circulated petitions; nd at the last session of the
Legislature procured be passage of a law, al
most in the very words f the petition, as they
\
say, (and why not? the lttorney for the Gas
Company wrote both,) which walled, or at least
altered all the *entreats made der the first law
before mentioned, and provide d\ that councils
shall light all the streets herettifore\ lighted, and
as many more as councils may thluk proper,
without the consent of, or petition from the tare
payers.' Under the arrangement, the Councils
are required to lay the tax, as well on streets
that are not lighted; as those that are; the prop
oily holders on all the streets, must pay for gas,
whether they want it or not, and without regard
to the fact whether they have it on their °ire
streets, or not. Let it be borne in mind, that
the new law provides that all streets that have
been heretofore lighted, mast still be lighted;
with regard to them, nothing is left to the dis.
eretion of councils Had the law allowed Goan •
eils to light such streets, as they should see tit,
I think that even the members of the Gas Com
pany, who are now howling for light, would
rather not have it. Suppose Councils should
light Seventh street and Buffalo road, in the
place of Fifth and Sixth streets; would not Presi
dent Lane howl louder than he does now? And
no fair minded man can say Seventh street does
not nerd the light as muck asg3izth, on which the
President lives, and Buffalo road Is MOM of a
thoroughfare than Fifth street. It f said doe ,
tors will not take their own medicine; the Gas
Company, unlike them, are willing to take the
gas, provided somebod y else will pay for it.
The old fellow that friend Speed still declare!
is not a "personal devil," could not have devised
a better plan to make the people take his gas,
than did my friend, the President. of the Gas
Company. lam informed Mr. Lane was at one
time a member, and I believe President of the
Common Council, and fall well be knows that to
tax the "district" for gas, would crowd the Coun
cil rooms every Monday evening with tax-pay •
ere from every part of the "dist:not," demanding
that as all are taxed, all are entitled to gas and
must have it; and who, with any show of fair ,
OCAS or COnsietetsay, mould resist snob appeals?—
Claims so fair and equitable, what Council - could
resist? One street after another would have to
be lighted, until two hundred and fifty or three
hundred lamps would be up and burning, and
the people most splendidly taxed, and I think
somewhat"in disregard of the public sentiziteut."
Bet President Lane more than intimates that
the motives of councilmen voting against his pro.
'Jed, are not good. if it is proper to suspect
men's Motives, 1 would suggest that his tuotives
cannot be misunderstood. He evidently wishes,
in the first place, to get his own street lighted,
and share the cost with his less favored neigh,
hors; in the second place to make money for his
company. The President also says, that Coun..
oils refuse to lay the tax in violation of the pub
lic will. How does he know it? How can
Councils learn the public will? I have been a
careful reader of the proceedings of Councils,
and I have never seen that the first petition has
been presented by the people for the tax; and I
am informed by members of councils, that the
offer said by the President of the GYM Company
to have been made, which so surprised the editor
of the Dispatch as almost to have sent him off in
a blaze of glory—is as new to them, as to the
said Dispatch man.
To cut this communication short, Mr. Editor,
let me say, that it is only necessary, in order to
fettle the whole gas matter, to, let all the streets
in the city have gas, and pay for it, that want it.
If the people or property holders on State street
want gas, let them have it, and let them also pay
fur it without Galling on their neighborsffor help;
and so of all the other streets. 1 cannot see why
the city should adopt any different role in refer.
cues to the furnishing and paying for gas, than
is adopted in reference to side walks.

The recommendation in the message of the
President, that the United States should assume
a temporary protectorate over Sonora and Chi•
hnahua, is founded not only in just right of re
prisal for aggravated and lontoontinwd outrages
upon American citizens, but upon principles of
self preservation and upon humanity for the peo
ple of these frontier Stases. The condition of
these States, although similar in vim of =ie.
government and oppression, l • not the lame in
degree. Soots.. . 1, 3 16,000,000 sores of
laud, and a population of about 120,000 souls,
including Indians. Of this number a reliable
authority estimates only five per ees,', as being
able to read and write. Thu uuuiber of inhabi
tants who call themselves white—"genre de ra•
son"—does not probably exceed 30,000.
Sonora is, beyond all doubt, the richest mine.
nil region in the known world, blessed with a
fine climate, and in the valleys the richest soil.
Sugar, cotton, wheat, COTS, pears, beans, all the
fruits grow in a luxuriousness and prolusion un
known even to our Southern possessions. The
people are naturally docile, and accustomed to
labor, caring only to be let alone to make the
State rich and prosperous by their quiet toil.—
With all these advantages, Sonora is to•day in
the most miserable condition. The whole State
is the prey of the Apelike Indians. All main.
tiou, except in the immediate vicinity of the
towns is abandoeed. The high roads are daily
stained with the blood of the people. The whole
mining region of the northern portion of the
State is aboodemod sad the eeetasteiaLwer. id le

Steamer Wa4in)ton Boardrd by British ofierrt
We are indebted to the purser of the steamer
Washington, for the following narrative:—
The steamer Washington sailed from New
York Nov. 7th for San Juan del Norte via Kings•
tog, Jamaica; and arrived at Port &vat on the
evening of the 14th ult., landed several passes
gers, and proceeded to sea same evening at 11
o'clock; arrived off the harbor of San Juan del
ill'ilorte early on the morning of the lath ult ;
'having experienced a heavy gale from the South
on the 15th and 111th. She was boarded outside
the harbor by a boat from the 11 S. frigate Sa
vannah, and entered the harbor about noon, as
soon as a pilot could be obtained.
The U. S. men_ofswar Savannah and James ,
town, and Eaglish steam frigates Leopard and
Valorous, (Sir Wm. G. fhtsley being on board
the Valorous,) were in the harbor. Col. Childs,
the company's - agent, came on board and informs
ed - us that nothing bad been beard of the arrival
of the Hermann at San Juan del Sur, and that
the Nicaragla Government refused to permit the
passengers of the Washington to pass through
the country,'alleging that the passengers by the
Washington were filibusters connected with the
passengers on the Hermann. Mr Childs, with
other parties connected with the company, on
the morning of our arrival, took the little steamer
Catharine Maria;
. and proceeded up the river
,consult, to onault, and if possible induce the
Cloven:meat to grant permission for our pa-s• n
germ to pass, if the Hermann was at San Juan
del Sur. Immediately upon our anchuriug at
12.. Juma, vya were boarded by two English offi
cers, with side-arms, from the Leopard and Val
orous, inquirin g , ia regard to the number iit pas
Bangers, bargo, &c., wishing to
list, asking of the purser and chief -oiScer at The.
passengers were Americans, and if they were
armed, and if there were arms and,prnmuoition
on board the ship.
They were told that the ship had been boarded
by an officer of U. S. ship Savannah who woull
give them soy infeormation they requir6d. They
replied. that they were instructed to get such in.
formation direct. They did not, however, 111-IA

the sick list, and went to sea for their benefit
It afterward appeared she was ordered to the
mouth of the Colorado to intercept 2:0 1 fi thu-s
tern whom it was reported we had landed the
previous night. Our boat could nut get up the
;San Juan on account of the very low rt.igc of
water, and bad proceeded to the month of the
Colorado, where she arrived at daylight next
morning, jest in time to be seen by the Leopard
that was anchored off the month of the river
there. Lai:inches were immediately inautied

On the evening of the 25th the thg ship Ito.
awoke, flag officer Mclntosh, arrived at aricherAge
outside the harbor from Aspinwall, bringing us
the intelligence that the Ilermann had arrived
at Panama on the 7th and proceeded to San
Francisco on the 11th. On the morning of the
26th Col Childs returned from Granada without
accomplishing any arrangement with the G.,vern
meat. On thg contrary the boat waa not allow, d
to pass from San Carlos without an officer with
a file of soldiers on board. She proceeded tit
Virgin Bay, the offieer being instructed not t 4,
allow the boat to land until he had ascertained
that there were no filibusters at that point, the
Government being infolmed and firmly believing
that the steamer Hermann had landed sevcrai
hundred filibusters at San Juan del Sur A •rn al
boat was sent on shore and the officer, after helo t ;
convinced that there were no filibusters tither
there or at San Juan del Sur, the steamboat was
permitted to land at the wharf and ap agent "1
the Company proceeded to San Juan del Sur to
look after the Hermann. -The Jamestown, Cart
Kennedy, sailed for Aspinwall the morning of
the 22d.
Oa the evening of the 26th we sailed for AM
pinwall, ()apt. C. having orders to connect with
the Mail Co.'s steamer of the 20th from New
York, for orders by that steamer for the passen
gers to go forward by that mail in the event of
the Hermann not being at Panama to receive
them. We arrived at Aspinwall on the mornrug
of the 28th, entering in company with the mail
steamer Moses Taylor. From some misappre
hension of the Company's agent. in New York no
order came by that ship for the Mail Company
to take our passengers. They were landed from
the ship and cared for by Capt C until tileir

from Fulton, Illinois, we learn that great ckuite

statement of a married woman named Forest.—
According to her story she bad been to a neigh

turning home through a lot, was assaulted and
gagged by two men, who threw her upon the
ground alad violated her, which (being eight
months advanced in pregnancy) caused her to
give birth to a child. Being unable to help
herself or' take care of the child, the villains took
the infant, killed it, and, taking its body with
them, departed. The perpetrators of the entrap

her by the most opprobrious names.
A few days ago tin unlocked for revelation

many, fell into the hands'nf the new Mrs. Roecke,
and the latter's grief, as may be imagined, was
excessive on learning that she had (been so out'

the advice of ber friends. The letters showed
that Roecke bad been living under an assumed
name, and that his real name was Liroaard Ed.

August Hoffman, summoned by the C oro ner
at an inquest yesterday, stated that on Tuesday
he went to Mr. Henry Linhoff and apprised him
of the shocking disclosures of the letters above

watch him in case he should attempt anything
against Linboff. The doctor's band was on one
of the knives, while Linhoff began walking up

had appeared perfeetly cool, asked Roecke if his
wife in the old country was living or dead, the
Doctor did not return an answer for awhile, and
then said: "Yes, have a wife and have been
married ten years I left her because she was a
cripple " Linhoff then inquired of him what
he would do for the satisfaction of his sister, at
the same time telling him that he had deceived
and dishonored her. Roecke replied by some
very harsh defamatory terms in relation to Lin
hoff s si-t , r, whereupon Linboff pulled a pistol
from his p )(Act, presented it and fired. The
Doctor rose, attempted to walk, took one step
and fell a corpse. The ball had penetrated the
heart, passing through both ventricles. He
moaned once but did not speak from the time of
the report until he expired. Immediately after

the office of Justice Peter W Johnstone, where
he surrendered himself into the hands of the
officers He was then committed to jail to await
an examination.
Hoffman, in his testimony at the inquest, said
that lie knew that Linhoff had a pistol with him,
but thought it was to protect himself against the
threats lately uttered by the Doctor. He stated
that he went to Hotcke s office •imply to ask him
