Morgan’s Letters to “Miss Horton. To-day in the Police Court Miss Lucy Walton Rhett Horton, was charged with an assault with intent to kill John H. Morgan, son of Sena- tor Morgan, of Alabama, by shooting him in the shoulder on the afternoon of January 1st last. It will be remembered that Miss Horton charges that Morgan had robbed her of her innocence under a spienite of marriage. Some months since, by Messrs. Cook and Cole, she entered ‘suit againsi him for $20,000 dam: which suit is now awaiting trial. Since ee the suit she all hat she has been di: trom every place in which she succeeded in geiting employment, and her friends claim that her mind has been unseitled by the treatmeat that she has received at hishands. She waserrested shortly after the occurrence, making no effort to escape, and a charge being made, Mrs. Lock- ‘wood went her bail in $1,000, and a hearing of the case has been continued from time to time until to-day. No publicity having been given to the fact that the case would be called to-day, there was not an unusual attendance in the court-room. THE PARTIES IN THE CASE. Mr. Morgan is rather a slim built young man, of medium height, with dark hair and mus- tache. He was early in court with a number of his friends, but until the case was called the accused did not appear in court. - She js rather a fair looking girl, about 18 or 19 years of age, but has a more settled and mature look than is usual f women of that She is of medium height, with dark hair. This morning she was neatly attired in a dark dress, black hat ard veil." There were a number of ladies present, in- cluding Mrs. Lockwood, Miss McNall, Mrs. Char- lotte Smith, and others. About 11% o'clock the accused entered the room, accompanied by Messrs. Cook and Cole, and the case wa3 immediately called and the witnesses sworn. JOHN H. MORGAN'S TESTIMONY. John H. Morgan flist testified that on New Year's day, while walking eastward on G street with a friend, Mr. Cole, he noticed the accused and passed her, end immediately after he heard the shot and felta pain in his shoulder. He turned and saw her endeavoring to cock the pistol again, and he ran to her and held her ands until she was forced from hia. Tue pistol was then in her hands. She made no re- mark before the shooting, but when the crowd came up she said, **Yes, I shot him, and I w'sh to God I had killed him.” She made no effort to eros the pistol Dr. Reyburn first attended m. Cross-examined by Col, Cook:—When did you come to Washington? Ans.—In the fall of 1877. ‘Question.—Where from? Mr. Coyle objected. ‘The Court said that he was sitting in this case as an examining justice, and suggested that the shooting velig proved the defence should be made in the court above. Mr. Cook said that they purposed to show conclusively that this defendant in consequence of the injustifiable acts of the witness was not in her right mine. Had it come to this, that a woman who had been thus treated should be ineareerated without inquiring into the con- dition of her mind? The Court said that so far he was a man, the accu: had his sympathy, but he had to go by the law Mr. Cook asked what the Court would do in the case of a maniac. ‘The Court.—You heve pleaded not guilty, and if insane the plea is wrong. Mr. Cook said he proposed to show her con- dition at the time the shot was tired. Mr. Coyle answered that this was not the time to bring out THE SENSATIONAL FEATCRES OF THE CASE, and although the witness and his friends were bey 3 that all should come out, he would do what he could to keep these features out until se reached the proper tribunal. k asked why coald not these points be made now, and claimed that this tribunal, in- ferior though it may be, had the right to make this inquiry. The court said that he had a stern duty to perform, and he would keep this tribunal in its own limits. He did not think that he had any- thing to do with the sanity or insanity of the prisoner, for that guestion would be one of the first in the upper court. Mr. Cook claimed as a matter of justice that thts poor child should not be commitced on the es of guilt, and they were prepared to show that this pcor woman’s reason was at the time tottering, because she had been robbed of everything dear to her, and they were entided to show the condition of her mind. The court cited the Mary Harris case, and said that he had no right to acquit, and his only course was to examine the case as to probable cause. OTHER WITNESSES EXAMINED. John Hart wasnext sworn, and testified that on the evening in question he saw a crowd, in which Mr. Morgan was holding a lady and hetold witness to hold her, but he declined, and she said that she was sorry that_ she had not Killed him. Witness put his hand on the pistol so it could not go off, Mr. George W. Calvert testified that he did not hear the shot fired, but saw the excitement; saw a lady in the crowd; saw Mr. Morgan, and heard some one say, “et that laay go.” Witness took the pistol trom Morgan. Officer Smith testified to the pistol and hand- derciief being turned over to him by Mr. Cal- vert, and he turned them over to Sargeant Ho’- lenberger. ‘There were four loads in the pistol and one empty cartridge. Sergeant Hollenberger corroborated the last witness, and also identified the handkerchtet. S sewed up So us to‘forma bag, and "al holes in it. Officer Britt testified that being Informed that aman had been shot, he followed the car in Which Miss Horton had taken a seat, and the lady being pointed out, he asked her if she was the party who had shot some one, and she nod- ded her head. Mr. Coyle said he had examined all the wit- nesses present. Dr. Reyburn was absent. Mr. Cook said he would prefer the case to go over Ull Saturday next. Mr. Coyle objected to any further delay. Mr. Cook said that this case had been allowed to slumber until Thursday last, when they were served. Mr. Coyle denied that the delay was attribut- abie to the government, and remarked that three different times had been set for the hear- ing of this case and they had arranged for a hearing; that this girl should not be exposed to of the curious. rt forand they Mr. Coo! clined until the government had closed.

At 2 o'clock the court re-assembled, and _testi- mony was given as to the wound, Which was not a dangerous one. MISS HORTON’S TESTIMONY. ‘The accused, Miss Horton, was called and tes- Utied that she had been acquainted with Mor- ang and the day before the shooting she saw im just before his house on G street, and he there said that he would not stand anything more from her, and the next time he saw heron G street he wollld Shoot her. Cross-examined—Morgan was then speaking to her about a J psa to compensa iscer. tain that he did not say, “if you don’t. go away iwill have you arrested;” saw him the next day on G street. Mr. Cook objected, and the court snstaining the objection witness left the stand. OTHER LETTERS OFFERED AND RULED OUT. Col. Cook also offered the following letters from Morgan to Miss Horton, which were ruled out: Sunpay, August 19th, 1877.—1 have just re- turned from Nashville and found your letter awaiting me. Itis the nicest one you ever wrote me, Tam so gladthat you are having a nice Ume. There fs no use in our ‘our- selves miserable and others unhappy vecanse ie love and can’t be together. We ought to’ try and be cheerful under all circumstances. While in Nashville I waltzed a 7 deal, and I always thought of the little girl with the bine dress with whom I danced “home sweet home” atthe armory. How I wish I could be with you now; but it is out of the question at present. I am very very busy, and besides, I am compelled to stay at home now on account of the absence of my father and mother. The Tennessee girls are awful jolly, and some of them really pretty. I enjoyed myself very much. I eouldn’t keep from wishing you were there too.

AUGUST 1877.—Your last two or three letters have been sip; and of such a re- markable character that they are very difficult toanswer. You bring accusations against me that are utterly without foanestion, and you make threats and call me names that are ver cruel and inconsiderate indeed. I don’t think have ever given you cause to treat me in this manner, nor can I see why you do so unless itis because you are tired of me and to rid yourself of a dull, tiresome fellow that can’t write nice love letters. Yours of August 23d seemed to have been written with the express purpose of exasperating me. I had written to say why I couldn’t come out to see you, but you don’t seem to have considered it at all. Ha’ heard that I was at Faunsdale you didn’t wait to see whether it was so or not, but flew into a passion and wrote me a lot of cruel and heartless letters, full of things calculated tocut me to the quick. I haven't been near Faunsdale this summer. God knows how much I wished to be there, because it was on the road to you. I shall expect all those “horrid things” you learned in Selma when you write again. SEPTEMBER 5.—I have received your last, in which you say you are sorry for your past cruel and unjust letters, and ask forgiveness. Well, your are forgiven, with all my but you must remember that I am no saint and haven’t gece the patience of Job. I expect that I will ave to ask your forgiveness some of these days, andi Lay apherny you will as treely forgive me. Well, let's quit quarrelling for the present; let’s “bear and forbear” from this time on. I waat you to tell me in your nextof the “horrible things” you heard in Selma. You mention my brother and Mr. Walker, but you don’t say what you heard about them. Now you must tell me all, for I have a right to know it. What you heard about Mrs. B. and myself don't amount to a “row of pins,” because it is simply untrue. I never did take her to a ball or picnic, and the only time I went out walking with her I met you. AS far as vile | her is concerned you ought to be able to judge for yourself. As to her caring for me, why I have never had the most remote idea of such a thing. I am not conceited enough to believe that. I think you must be mistaken. Your cousins are quite handsome fellows. Did you intend for me to keep them, or do you wish them returned, (the yo Imean.) I will be happy to trade you the two for one of yourself. What do you say? If you wish it I will “throw in” one of a certain “plebian” friend of yours ‘to boot.” With much love, yours <intil you write me another mean letter.) ‘ELMA, Sept. 17, 1877.—Dear Sweetheart: Your dear little hote, of no date at all, came a couple of days ago. It is the kind of letter [ like to get. The only fault was, there was not enough of it. T hope you are having a fine time of it with yourcompany. It is so much better to be cheerful than to be all the time downeast, and moody and blue. Of course we all have our moody moments, but then itis our duty to bear up and strive to be cheerful. 1 have been here for several days, hard at work packing up father’s library, ‘preparing to leave for Wasit- ington. I want to see you very much, but fear that I will not be abie to come out to Dayton, as Tam kept busy all the time.

You want me to send you the poetry, but you must remember that { said youmust tell me all you had heard about me before I would send It. I intend to keep my Promise strictly; so you may as well make up your mind to tell me all about it, and also to ive your authority. 1 don’t propose to make a ‘uss about it, or to get you into any trouble on account of it; but 1 am determined to find out, if possible, who takes so much interest in me that they must talk about me in that mani There is to be a hop here day after to-morrow night, given by the Guards. Don’t you wish you could be here? I do. I would giveany- thing in the world todance the Home Sweet Home dance with you on that occasion. Who shall I take in your place? Many, many thanks for the little souvenir enclosed in your last let ter, I have put it where I can get it every da: and look at it. I see your special friend, M Walters, every day, but haven't kissed him for you yet. In fact, i believe I would rather kiss some of the girls for you. I haven't seen Cha: ley Walker since you saw him; but when I do, 1 will give hima blowing up for telling you a fib about my having visited Faunsdale thissum- mer. I will have to wait until I get a little fatter before Ican send you my picture. I am only an animated skeleton now. With much love and a long sweet kiss, I am, as ever, yours until you get on the war-path again. WASHINGTON, D.C,, October 23d, 18% Miss Lucy: The tone of your last wo letters com- pels me to believe that you no longer feel towards me as you formerly did. Those letters have certainly produced a change in my feelings toward you.

Your friend, “SELMA, July 3d. Jno. H. Mora “COUNTRY PLACE,” twenty miles trom Selma I received two letters from you yesterday, both written from Dayton. One was dated the 9th and the other had no date. The dated one was anice sweet letter, such as I like to get from my sweetheart, but the other was unjust to yourself and cruel to me. You don’t seem to care how deeply you wound me or what kind of light you place yourself in. 1 can’t comprehend you; two letters so widely dierent in tone and sentiment, and written within a few days of each other lead me to believe—well I don’t know what to believe. You hardly seem to know your own mind. If the dated letter was writ- ten last I am to,believe that you sincerely love and Gust me, but if the other one is the last. I am exceedingly doubtful whether you really love me or not. However, I am unwilling to think that you meant anything you said in that letter, so I'll say nothing more about it, burn it up, and wy toforget that I ever received it. I have been nay ine lanely aie of it up here; there is no one at home but my mother, and she is quite sick. Ispend my time reading, study- ing and thinking about Lightfoot, sweetheart. That reminds me of Andromache; you knov that her affections were just like every othrr woman, that is, (ransferabie.
