gite3 following, preliminary, re-
Xtial on Monday: " " --'4- ' .
The 6ame lUtlecal with its half-staryed
k0racE and' tunny looking -negro driver,
A ihnt (ioraes each day to convey Mrs. "Whar
Q too aid her daughter from the jail to the
tourtlraoni and back,, again drew up bo
4 fore the front door-of-the prison-house
""this nkorning at 10 . o'clock. A monieht
later the prisoner and her daughter came
down the lront steps of. the jail, accom
panied by Mias Rosa Wilson,'- entered the
carriage, and a lew momenta alter were
seated within the bar at the court-house,
in rca ' of those three men who arc her de
fenders in this struggle lor life. -I
Mrs Wharton seemed much more de
pressed than ever before since the trial be
LD probably on account of the terrible
bereavement that had come to one of, the
twelve mcn.wba were to be her liberators
or exec utioners." She appeared to watch
every movement ot Mr. Beard, the juror
vvho lost his wife6u Friday, as he sat
bowed down with the weight ot his grief;
' her eyes would till with tears, and it was
plainly visible that in the midst t:f her
own sufferiogs sho was mindful of the
mistortluBes of othersv ..TuOiSjTrne little
knot of constant triends that have cvtr
been by her side since the trial C?gan wore
' with Mrs. Wharton as usual, but-Miss
Xellie and all of the little group seemed
to shaje the feeling of depression that
made Uer more sorrowful than before.-
. The day was gloomy and the attendance
by no means as large as on previous occa
sions ; the ladies especially did not mani
fest their usual interest in the trial. Some i
new and very pretty laces were observable,
however, and the masses', were in strong
lorce outside the railings. Ooe idea very
foicibly strikes the least cultivated and
sensiblp niind upon entering the court
room at Annapolis this morning includ
ed. It is the ; appearance ot loneliness
that surrounds the ; prisoner, Not that
she has no ' friends, .v ior- sho baa
many land is ; gaining more every day
but that little melancholy .' group about,
her io the Court -room is her whole
world, and she cannnot now ;.go out
from them, except in thought, to her many
other friends,- and the great tbinkiog,
reasoning masses that are fast becoming
her trinds. She must' remain with - this
little group, fcr howlong no one can tell
and at times even this family is cut down,'
ami only mother and daughter left to min
gle their tears together, alone. It is, In
deed, a, lonely situation, y ,r ;
Public opinion is proverbially obstinate,
' and th i accumulated evidence of the past
lew days is very slowly wearing-away the
impresBions whichTwre'created by the case
ot the State. .Tlie evidence fpi; thet defence
is incre asing In strength ns dayafter day
Is added to the number already consumed
By the 'trial. The chemical testimony on
the part of the State having been disposed
of, and the non-existence of poison in the
stomach of Ganeral Ketchum having been
almost demonstrateci . by that very, able
scientific expert, Dr. "Warren, their testi
mony has been followed up by the expe
rience of physicians of national reputation,
whose conclusions j upon the symptoms
presented to them have all tended - to es
tablish the opinion expressed by Dr. War
ren, that the General died ot tcerbro spi-.
nai meningitis. All the other suspicious
circumstances are rapidly disappearing be
fore the sledge-hammer blows administer
ed by the defence, and there is now little!
room to doubt the result.
Scjhnrs Personal Explanation.
Vongresa. "reassembled to day with a
9lim attendance, j In the House the
Speaker had frequently to appeal to all
the members to vote to mJke a Quorum.
One volte showed .ninety members to be
absent.! The Senate opened with a sharp.
crisp personal explanation from Mr. Schurz
oq an editorial, which appeared; jo the; N.
i. i imes a snore lime ago, cuargmg nim
with inconsistency jfin his advocacy, ol
civil service reform, and with making war
upon the President.!, Schurz took up the
charges made in the i article seriatim, and
stiowed they were nearly all groundless,
and most ol them baso; fabrications. lie
pronoujneed the wbqle article a rare in
stance pf cumulative, intrepid, and tshame
Jess lying. The Senator from Missouri
would pot have noticed the article had it
not appeared iq the jcolmns of a journal
which jclaims to be par excellence the
wgan t the administration in New . York;
He.beljeyed.it to be 'part of an ' organized
systematic effort . t6, slander "and defame
the 8enators who are supposed to disagree
with tlie administration. .Mr. Schurz gave
Notice that theattack8, even should they
come as thick aslocnsts, -would not deter
him from pursuing the path of duty
which he has marked out lor bimsU.
Schurs) has an idea tht, the article in
question was inspired at the "White House,

Arthur Nattant, Inventor and Proprietor,

A PERFECTLY CLEAR PREPARATION
in one bottle, as easily aDDlled as water.
for restoring Gray Hair to its. natural color
and youth ul appearance, to eradicate and
prevent aanariur, ta promote the growth o
the Hair and stop Its falling out. . It is kb-
tikslt hasxlbss and perfectly free from any
poisonous substance, and will therefor take
the place of all the dirty and unpleasant prep
arations now in use. N umrons testimonials
have been sent us from i many of - our ' most
prominent citizens. In everything irk 'which
the articles now In use are ooeotionable, Crys
tal Discovery is-perfect. It la warrantee to
contain neither bngar of Lead, Sulphur or Ni
trate or silver, it does not soil the clothes or
scalp, is agreeably perfumed and makes one
oi the best dressings ior the Hair in use. It
restores the color of thei Hair "more periect
and uniformly than any other preparation,'
ana ai ways noes so mirom tnree to ten aays,
virtually feeding the roots of the Hair with
all the nourishing qualities necessary to its
growth and healthy condition; it restores the
ecayed and induces a new- growth of the
Hair more positively taan anything else. The
application of this wonderful discovery, also
produces a pleasant and cooling effect on tbe
scalp and gives .the Hair a pleasing appear
ance ' . . . i . . .
We call esnedal attention to the fart. tht. a.
limited number of small trial bottles con be
had by thoae wishing to try it. Yon will no

This Company is carrying on the business of
