Strange and Mr. Ashe appeared for the State, and Judge Toomer and Mr. Geo. C. Mendenhall for the prisoner. After a full hear ing of the evidence, and the Counsel on both sides, the Jury retired, and, in a short time, re turned with a verdict of guilty. The prisoner appealed to the Supreme Curt, on. what ground we know not. ; The evidence iq this, case was entirely circumstantial, but as strong as evidence of the kind could well be. We took copious notes of the evidence, and -intended to lay the princi pal part of it before our readers, but have not yet had lime to arrange, it properly. Perhaps we may yet pablisb h. when s proper time arrives.
