Mrs. Twitchell a Native of Washington— Why she Ceased her Visits to her Co: med Husband—Interesting Particu- jar The Philadelphia Sunday Transcript pub- lished yesterday some interesting de‘ails of the history of the 1 witchell family not heretofore printed: Mrs. Twitchell was born in Washington, her mother being then known as Mrs, Weratz. Her tather was Revolver Spencer, a Metnodist chrgyman of some reputation In is4 the mother and daughter removed to Cincinnati, ana remained there four years, during which tume Camilla was known as Miss Sawyer, her mother having a married sister by that name. This is probably the origin or the story that Mrs. Twitchell was the illegitimate daughter of a member of Congress from bio. In 1:48 Mrs. Werntz and daughter came to Philadel- phis, and the former married Mr. Hill. Siort- jy atterwards Camilla married Richard Mar- Un, @ clerk in adry store. After living together five years, Martin lef his wife, alleg- ing acts of impropriety on her part; but she took the initiative in subsequent pro- ceedings tor divorce, which culminated in a legal se, mn in 1853. Camilla then resumed the name of Sawyer, returned to her mother’s house, and lived there with her and Mr. Hill. She then became acquainted with Twitchell, senior, then a widower with several children, including George S. Twitchell. an illegitmate son, who been bornin Brooklyn. his mother dying soon after his birth. Camilla was en- as housekeeper, and removed with ‘itchell, senior, to New Jersey. It is denied most positively by all ‘that any improper in: and bis hot meee Dn ee nace oe milla’s conduct is represented to have been blameless. She was a member of Dr. Lord's church, in Broad street, near Chestaut, and in her character as housekeeper was paid regular ‘Wages, and for extra services received extra y. When George S. Twitchell reached man- ood he was accepted as the suitor ofPhis fath- er’s house! » and in 1864 was married. We have already said that Mrs. Twitchell Was not yet ready to give to the public a for- mal statement, but while in prison a waiting 4m conversation with prison officials, she made a partial explanation, which has never been publisbed. When informed of her hus- band’s conviction, and the probabilities of her m fate. she Temarked “+I know nothing of this murder. That afternoon George and 1 were out riding, und when we got back to the bouse mother was getting tea, as Sarab (amp- bell bad gone out. I noticed that George was much depressed in spirits. He never was much of a talker, but unis nigbt be was quieter than usual. He scarcely spoke at all. At the table ane aftersupper Isaid to mother, ‘there 4s something the matter with George.

This he refused to do. After her acquittal she did call at the prison, but instead of the greeting on her part being warm and affectionate. it was as cool as would natarally be the case of one who looked upon her b as the murderer of her mother. Immediately after Rer accuittal Twitchell and his friends commenced paving the way toastatement from Mrs. Twitchell which would take from him the chrrge and transfer it to his wife. So shrewd were the parties engaged that one of them visited Daniel Dougherty, Esq . to ascertam from him whether & person once acquitted on the charge of murder could be tried a second time, although there be confession of guilt. The response being that there coald not be a second trial, tne efforts were renewed with redoubled vigor, until Mrs, Twitchell’s triends beard of them, and advised her to absent herself from prison: She always denied any complicity in the murder, and her fears of confession by him were based on the fact that she knew that he did not believe in the immortality of the soul, and that his professions of piety were designed merely to retura his services in the game for lite be was playing. Others besides herself nad every reason to feri assured that he would not hesiiate to save bis life.” “In the face of all his confessions Mrs. Twitchell has remained quiet; she bas realized that if she denied the first story while her hus- band was alive she would be accured of an attempt to insure his death. She was willing not to tell what she keew if that would be of any service to him. S assist him to the ext he wished her to g herself guilty of @ crime she did 1 she left him.

He mtended to free them again. He referred to the disfran- cb-sement and attendant degradation of 100,000 ‘White Tenneseeeans; denounced the conspiracy of league mongers and declared that the form of government in Tennessee was unrepublican, and iu violation of the Constitution and the Jundamental principles of the free American step further, t ina tew fall state- PRESIDENT NASHVILLE | Kepublic.
