WEST ACQUITTED. An Astounding Verdict—The Man Who Killed and Skinned a Negro Declared Not Guilty—West Yet To Be Tried for Arson. Dover, Del., June 1, 1873, At five o'clock this morning the tolling of the Court House bell indicated to this community that the jury in the West murder trial had agreed upon @ verdict. I hurriedly arose, dressed and pro- ceeded to the Court House to find the full bench present, Chief Justice Gilpin said to the jury:— “Gentlemen, have you agreed upon a verdict?” and the answer being given the few peopie pres- ent and the prisoner in particular looked intently towards the jury box to hear the result, “We find the prisoner at the bar not guilty.” “Not guilty?” queried the audience, with bated breath, and “Is it ssi ble?” looked the honorable Justic3s and the Attorney General of Delaware, “On what grounds?" inquired Chief Justice Gilpin. ‘On the ground ot sel!-delence,” replied the foreman. At the request ot Attorney General Love the jury were polled, and thus ends or atime the greatest criminal prosecu- tion known in the annals of Delaware. There is still the charge of arson against West, which wiil be tried in October next, and to this end he has been remanded to the custody of the Sheriff until that time, having been acquitted on the ground of self-detence. It may be taken for granted that the insanity plea was ignored by the jury; therefore there 18 a@ possibility, and @ very decided one, that he may be convicted on the latter charge, which is also punishable with death, The jury all of last evening stood nine for acquittal and three for con- viction, At one o'clock this morning they went to bed, and arose at four. By five o'clock they had agreed upon a verdict. The drama, or iarce, if you will, is ended. As West's brother laughingly said to me last night, “They don’t hang men in Kent county jor killing a i a T agree with him now, West ieeis a good deateasier, He walked back to jail with an elastic step, and smiled as sweetly as an Italian brigand when his friends con- gratulated him on his present escape, How varia- ble is the human mind! Last night more than half of the popuiation of this town, having listened to the Attorney General's argument and the Judge's charge, thirsted for a conviction. Now that the verdict has been exculpatory, the same people | say:—‘Weill, it would have been rough to hang him for killing a nigger, wouldn't it?” THE UNIVERSAL PEACE UNION. Seventh Annual Convention of the Society=Speeches and Resolutions—A Great Effort To Be Made to Abolish War Among the Nations of the Earth, A small number of persons, members of the Unt- versal Peace Union, met yesterday morning in room 24 of the Cooper Union, to celebrate the seventh anniversary of their society. The Union | was started some seven or eight years ago by a number of well-meaning persons, who arrived at the conclusion that this world had had enough of wars, and that something should be done to put an end to them. The difficulties assatling those who engaged themselves in this Utoplan enterprise were great. War is horrible at all times, and sometimes it is unjust; but there are times when the honor of a nation ts assailed without reason, that a peace policy would not be alone cowardly, but disgraceful. The time may eventually come when “swords shall be beaten into plough- shares and spears into pruning hooks ;"" buy that day, from present appeitances, is fat distant, the era being yet too imperfect to allow nations fo rely for their preservation upon the force of moral suasion. There is no country in the world where the ‘peace policy” has been { 80 often tried as in our own, and the results are so deplorable that the persons who would substitute blankets and flour for rifles and cannon may well pause before they bring another Modoc war on our heads. The »ple who met yesterday were, how- ever, undaunted by failure, and were as entnusias- Uc in support of their pet theories as if they had been perfect successes, The meeting was called to order by the Presi- dent, A. H. Love, of Philadelphia, The attendance, as stated before, was very small; bat the lack of numbers was atoned tor by an increase of talk, almost every one having something to say. A number of letters of syinpathy were read from prominent lights who were expected to be present, accompanied with expressions of regret at their absence. A poem on peace was also read by a colored lady, Mrs, Francis Harper, of Philadelphia, ‘The sentiment of the poem was good, but the poetry was very bad. A number of resolutions were read by the Chair- man, setting forth that, as friends of peace, the members of the Union demanded universal dis- armament throughout the world, calling upon nations never to give cause for war, and always to Tefuse to go to war when called upo! The resolu- tions were unanimously adopted. The doctrines of the resolutions, which were of great length, were very extravagant, and if the nations of the earth | would take the advice of our iriends in room 24, some of them would soon find themselves wiped out. Peace is a very good thing, and when you are sm.tten on one cheek it is doubtless a very edify- ing thing to turn around the other; but the prin- ciple is likely to be abused, and the better way, ater ail, 18 when attacked to give good squire ; knockdowns. The members of the “Universal Peace Union,” however, think otherwise, but they are likely to have very few followers. The formation of an international court was recommended, to which all quarrels should be re- Jerred, A communication was read from Secretary Delano, in answer to some questions which were askod about the treatment of the Modocs. The sincere thanks of the Union were tendered to President Grant for his Indian peace policy. Com- mittees were appointed on finance for the ensuing year. ‘Miaresses rer insthod Of eenting % tintversal state of peace throughout the whole world by Messrs. Gideon Frost, J. B. Wolff, Lillie D.

Brilliant Opening Day of the East- ern Yacht Club, A THIRTY-FIVE MILE COURSE. a The Azalia Carries Off First Prize—The Shadow Second. Boston, June 11, 1873, The frat regatta of the Eastern Yacht Club was sailed to-day, the yachts starting from a stakeboat moored off Marble Head Light, about twenty miles from this city, The day dawned most untavorably, the rain falling in drenching showers, which, in more than one instance, detained the owners of yachts from repairing to the rendezvous at Marble Head, But, though beginning in clouds, rain finally ended in sunshine and a fair breeze from the southwest, fresh, but productive of fast sailing. The tugboat Charles H, Hersey left Boston at an early hour and proceeded to Beverly, where a party of ladies and gentlemen, with two of tle judges, were taken on board, the tug afterwards steaming to Marble Head harbor, tn waiting for the arrival of the tug Weymouth with tnree of the judges on board, She soon came in sight. The judges were then trans- ferred trom the Hersey, and the preparation for the race approached completion. Not long after the John Romer, a sidewheel pleasure steamer, with @ large party of ladies and members of the Club with their friends, appeared rounding the point at the head of the harbor. She steamed on up the harbor and took a favorable position for observing the start, Meantime the yachts which had been entered for the race, and which had previously been cruising about the bay, had entered the harbor and been made ready for the start. Other craft, including two small steamers—the Mischief and the Henry Morrison—were flitting about onevery hana, many dimly discernible through the mist, which might almost have been termed = pour- ing rain. Though the weather seemed anything but favorable for yachting it was thought est that the start be made in the hope that the skies would ultimately brighten. The race was to be sailed under the ordinary regulations govern- ing the Club regattas, with the stipulation that in the event of but one yacht of a class starting she would not be entitled to tie prize offered to the wianing boat in her class, or to any prize what- ever, unless she shouid be first in the race in point of time, The sequel will show the force of this provision. The entries for the race were but eight in num ber, owing to the threatening state of the weather and some misunderstanding of the part of tne owners of two or three fine cratt, which might otherwise have been entered and proved for:mid- able competitors, Tho elt which started were the lollowing: ing CLAS SCHOONERS, Owner. 8.

She nevertheless started and followed the race to the finish, Her time was not taken, but she exhibited sailing qualiues which produced @ conviction that, had she participated in the race, the result would have been different. At the time of starting the wind biew fresh from the westward, and the boats were not long in rounding Half Way Rock, the Coming being still well tn advance, From Half Way Kock to Rock the course necessitated frequent tacks, giving the yachts an opportunity of snowing their powers of beating against a head wind. The Coming, While making a long tack in shore, ran in too far and missed Pig Rock stakes, This caused her to jose considerable ground, which, however, she regained before opie | Egg Rock. Meanwhile the Vision had passed the Juniata and soon alter the Coming, but gained only @ temporary advantage over the latter, though she eventually passed the stakeboat second in the race. The Juniata, Azalia and Julia were making good headway, and were but a little dts- tance apart, the Fea! holding a place between the two first named, ACCIDENT TO THB SILVIA. When about half way on the run to Egg Rock the Slivia, which was overhauling the yachts ahead of her in splendid style, had the great misfortune to lose her maintopmust, which yielded to the strain ps sae upon it by the main and balloon gat’ topsaiis, both of which were drawing to their utmost extension, and snapped off bringing the light upper sails down witharun.

Just before rounding Egg Rock the Coming and Vision had a lively brush, running along for some distance side by side, The voming gradually forged ahead, however, obliging her opponent tu pass under her stern in order to come about, The Azalia, too, Was showing some fine sailing while oeereg ‘any prize, she having been the second yacht in the race. The Azalta was awarded the rst prize in her class and the Shadow the prize for second class 8100) The judges were Movers, W. W. Whitney, Edward Burgess ana Alired Windsor, who, with Messrs. P. T. Jackson and B. George Jeffries, composed the Regatta Committee, and to their exertions tnose who were fortrnate enough to be present were in- debted for 4 most enjoyable day. The season thus ‘ees Opened bids fair to be an unusuaily riliant one. The vessels of the Club will visit New York on their annual cruise. THE WAGNER ASSASSINATIONS, The Isle of Shoals Marderer on Trial— Damning Evidence of Mrs. Houtvet, the Oniy Living Witne of the Butchery, ALFRED, Me., June 11, 1873, Among the witnesses examined to-day at the trial ot Wagner for the murder of Anethe M. and Karen Christenson, was Mra, Mary 8.

John scared me!” the Clock tell down on the lovuge and was aurped at seven minutes past one; she then cried “JOHN IS KILLING MB! JOUN I9 KILLING ME!" He commenced at her with the chairs; 1 jumped up and tried to open the bedroom door,’ but could not; he kept on striking her; I tried to open the dvor but could not until she fell under the table, | and the door was then opened; I saw a great tall man; he grabbed a chair; | tried to pick Karen up and take her to the bedroom; while doing so he struck me twico; I told Karen to lit the window, but she said she could not; sie was on her kn with her arms on my bed; [ told Apethe to ta some clothes and run and hide away; Anetue opened the window and jumped out; when I stood at the bedroom door he thomped three mes and tried to get in; finding he could not get in that way he ran out of the door.

Ghastlty Scene im the Trenton State Prison—Marital [nfelicity and Ssui- cide—Where Are the Keepers! Aconvict aamed Henry Austin, who was incar- cerated in the New Jersey State Prison at Trenton, committed suicide by cutting his throat with a knife, yesterday morning, at eight o'clock. He was @native of England, and had been sentenced to five years’ imprisonment on tte 3d of October, 1872, for larceny and receiving in Middlesex county. His wife, Saran Anne Austin, was committed at the same time for six months, and bas served out her term. A short time before her discharge Austin had an interview with her and endeavored to exact a promise that she would prove iaithful to him alter her release. This she deciined to give notwithstanding the persist- ent efforts of her husband. [ft is presumed that, owing to this disappointment, the man became melancholy and depressed in spirits, which culminated in @ fit of temporary insanity, and while in that state he committed the rash act ofself- destruction. A few days er he feigned sickness aud was removed to the prison hospital in conse- quence. It appears he had secreted about his per- son a small shoemaker's knife, about four incues in length, which he, by some means or other, had sharpened as fine as a razor, and with it he made a feartul gash in the left side of his neck, penetrating the main arteries, from which about a galion of bloed escaped before be expired, He was conscious for heariy half an hour after inflicting the wound, Strange to relate there were two men tn the apart- ment at the time of the sad occurrence, but they id not notice it until the noise of the gurgilug ia the sutcide’s throat attracted their attention.
