Re to Ailah who gives the pale LNatinal Era. Usraratitecep Crive.—The Chica; and boerend Sepa a letter ae Fa yen on Monday, detailing the particulars of a series of outrageous crimes almost too bestial and fiendish for inhuman credibility. Later reports con- firm the , however, which is as follows : “ The wife of a Mr. Forrest, a respectable me- chanio of Fulton City, Towa, while returning home about 8 Pi m., from prayer meeting at the house of a ne’ bor, was seized by two men, seared and Minted with a handkerchief cov- with mud, and outraged by both the villains in turn. Mrs Forrest was near confinement, which the outrage hastened, and in the presence of the ruffians she gare birth toa living child. The poor, gagged and bound mother heard one of the wretobes, say “Let us kill thed—d brat,” and accordingly one held it while the other severed the head from the body? Faint and almost senseless, she was some three hours dragging herself home—a distance only requir- ing a walk of some ten minutes’ duration. Her condition for some time was critical, but she is now recovering. The inhuman monsters who | apse this be epee crime, have not m arrested ; but Mrs. Forrest ‘ized one, und it is probable they will not be op, to long escape the officers who are now on their tracks. A Practicat Joxe.—On a late trip of the steamer Liberty, from Cincinnati to Wheeling, there was a deck ger on board, who had a desire to propitiate the lady of his’ love, liv- peed Ripley, with something nice. To this purchased a prime can of oysters, which he was ol mach afraid of having stolen that he made a pillow of it. One of the deck hands spying the luxury, straightway coveted the same, and set about securing the game. He Procured an old oyster can, which he filled with sand, so that it was a fac ile of the in- tended present. He placed the boguscan close to the sleeper’s nose, and giving him a hearty shake, quietly removed the genuine. The y party immediately secured the can of sand, thinking he had the right one, and that ithed Somewhat got from under his head, never ce it to leave his hand until he reached Ripley, where he presented it to the ers who was on the wharf boat to meet him. hortly after the boat put off he was invited to eat oys- ters by a committee of deck hands, who told him the joke. We understand that he has in- definitely postponed bis next visit to Ripley. — ARRIVALS AT THE HOTELS.
