A ghastly discovery was made this J afternoon at the principal oflace of the Adams Express Company, in this city.. The "find' was the result of a sickening oder , being emitted from a irunK.wmcn, wnen broken open. .. - .,.- r iSaturday night last. It reached Cal vert station' in this city Sunday morn ing, when it was brought to the Bal timore street office. - ' The trunk was' consigned', to" John' A. Wilson, Baltimore, Md., to be cal led for. It was put in the cellar : yes terday. This morning the parties employed in the cellar detected a dis agreeable oder that, as the day .wore on, became unbearable.' Finally the trunk was broken open and the ex press people were horrified to find in it the dead body of a man. The trunk and its ghastlycontents were removed to the back yard of the cen tral station, and when the" body was taken from the v trunk it was found that the head, lert arm and both legs were missing. The right arm was doubled up under the back; the left arm had been cutfoff-at the shoulder and the legs closerto the body. The body was thus mutilatedp.it is. sup posed, to get it in the trunk. A coat was thrown over the corps, in the pockets of which were found four business cards, inscribed "Henry, Seigle, meat market, 205 Throop ave nue, near Floyd street, Brooklyn, E. D." On the bottom of the shirt front was the name, "C. Kaufhold" : - KILLED nir MS 1VIFE. YOVJmG Mrs. . Jizi irorte, igrcd ,XG Fires Upon Iler Jlnsbanil in Self-Defense. 5 ' VVeelsboro, Pa.," Jan. 28.-Jacob Worte, W farmer living a mile below Stokesdale Junction, onV the - Pino Creek Railroad, was killed by his young wife about nine o'clock this morning. ". u Van; Worte had been away from home Tor -several I days', and on returning was.told by a med dlesome neighbor that a man had been at his house during his absence and stayed all night. Although he knew the story to be false, he made it an opportunity for a quarrel and the indulgence in wife-beating, a pastime not new to him. His wife is only sixteen years old, - but large for Jier age. With her has been living a girl of twelve, Rose Brundage. When Van Worte began whipping his wife Rose started to go to the home of h er parents, some distance away. DLscovering her absence, Van Worte went to his stable, got on horseback and pursued her. , Under threats of killing her Van Worte was drivingher back to his house when they met his wife. ' She had put on her wraps and was evidently - going away to remain. Her husband told her she must go back or he would kill her. ;- She replied that she' would rather die than go back to her wretch ed home. Van Worie jumped from his horse with the evident ibiehtion of carrying out his threat, drawing a large knife; As he approached his wife she met him with a revolver, firing twice, both bullets taking effect in his neck and producing death im mediately. This is the story as re lated by the only witness, . the Brundage girl.

Y.,) telegram says: The report of the Capital Punish ment". Commission will bo presented to the Legislature on Tuesdav next. Mr. Elbridge T. Gerry, wh(J has been they should make a preliminary port ana ask for further time. . Dr. Southwick, 'of this city, another memberof the ' commission, left for Albany yesterday to meet Mr. Jilat thew Hale, the third member. Be fore his departure Dr. Southwick was asked what the result of the Commi sion's labors would be. He replied: : I The weight .of s the , opinion . ex pressed in the replies received by the Commissions in the circular sent out to prominent lawyers, judges" and others in the State, : asking their views on the subject, is against hang ing andinfavor of electricity. There port therefore, will be in fayor of the adoption of some electrical apparat us for executions. Thalt is the end taward which I have been 'working for six years; and if the report of our Commission does not culminate in the passage of a bill abolishing hang ing,. I shall begin to think I have been working In vain. I have notic ed that the bill introduced in our Legislature last year : was. copied in Paris, and a 'similar one has been in troduced by a Frenchrnarin.theeg islative body of France. Germany" has taken , up 'the question,, and I have just read that In Xew Jersey at tention has been called to our agita tion of the matter. I wish that the Empire State would take the initia tive in this step toward a broad lu minary. . The only, argument that can be brought in favor of hanging Is that of its deterrent effect, but that I maintain a painless death would have just the samo influence upon society as if it were accomplished in secret. : : Let a prisoner be confined in a State prison and be removed from life "painlessly and secretly and without the hurrah' and sensation that attends a hanging." ; ' Rumors of a Resignation. New York, , Jan. 27. The ' Herald tllis morning says it is understood that Secretary Manning and . U. S.
