6 THE BLACK HILLS Sentiment of the Retiring Miners Re- garding the Yield of Gold. ANOTHER EPHEMERAL EXCITEMENT The Mineral Wealth of the Country Made Up of the Useful Metals. FUTURE OF WR. JENNEY'S EXPEDITION. Camp Crook, D, T., August 5, 1875. ‘The exodus of the miners from the country of the Black Hills is now in progress and will soon be accom- plished, The readiness with which they have re sponded to the order of Brigadier General Crook is not, however, so wonderful a fact as may at first be thought, | It simply confirms my former statement that many of them are bitterly disappointed in their fondly dreamed of El Dorado, The majority of the miners have few of the necessaries of life left to them out of the stores which they brought with them a month or more ago. Improvidence is characteristic of them, They return with wagons and packsaddies nearly empty, repenting the folly of having outlawed themselves and risked dangers and privations in the Hills to reap only greater poverty therefrom. Scarcely one tn a hun- dred of the men who will soon be wending their steps homeward will carry with him sufficient particles of gold dust to show that he has been in the midst of a gold field for weeks delving for the precious metal No bet- ter argument !s needed to prove the popular belief m ‘the unbounded wealth of this soil to be a delusion. It is mow gratifying to believe that no more migrations will be made hither until the government has annulled the Indian title, Then only can capital be safely invested and only in that case can gold mining be made profitable in the Black Hills. The poor men who have located their claims apparently begin to recognize this fact, and those who evince anxiety to re turn next year have only the object of selling what they have ed by the enterprising exploration this summer to persons better able to develop the mineral resources of the region than themselves. A very few miners there are who are confident that they have been supremely tucky and consider the placers which they hold to be especially rich, and they will, perhaps, at- tempt to elude the troops who are sent to remove ‘them, hoping to remain all winter, if they havo means of subsistence, Two or three such individuals have attached themselves to Mr. Jenney’s civic party, and thus ingeniously, under the protecting shadow of that great scientist, will succeed tn finding and securing some of the best “bars” or suriferous deposits lying along the eastern streams. ‘They are, however, of indubitable utility to Mr. Jenney, ‘who would not have discovered the “lead” on Spring ‘Creek, over which he has since been so enthusiastic, ‘but for the trained observation of his mining assistants. "They are his reliance and the pillars of his greatness, Professor H. Newton, second geologist of the expedition, ‘a, however, his main support. He has afar more ex- tended and profound knowledge of bis science and is more accurate in forming conclusions from the results of his explorations. The only quartz ledge of apparent value which has yet been found during this expedition is the “Leana,” on Spring Creek, which Professor Newton recognizes as ‘Dearing indications of gold, and in which a few particles of the metal, of minute size, were discovered frea. Mr. Newton’s judgment of divers discoveries is held in respect, while that of Mr. Jenney is of as little weight fm the minds of old and case-hardened miners as a NEW YORK HERALD, THURSD pale cast of reality in all the brooks and streams which we have yet crossed; but they revive with the anticipa tion of encamping by @ stream flowing westward from the mountains, THS PATRIARCH OF THE EXPRDITION is Colonel Bullock, one of the Missouri cavaliers before the national nightmare of war and rebellion. The Colonel is a guest of one of the officers of the military escort. He wears a crown of silver hair, and his face, genial and benevolent, yet keen in ‘expression, 1s bearded with gray. The Colonel is an ancient of the frontier, yet ts but shghtly bent, and rides a horse to the hunt with the bearing of youth. He came into the then Far West in 185, and bas been an Indian and gov- ernment trader. Few men know more of Indian society (if | may so speak) or have had more intimate inter- course with the savages, “The Indians,” said he, “never were in this country much, except to hunt here aint much game here, because they've killed it pretty much all off” Flashes from the camp fire lit up fitfully the Colonel's immobile countenance, but the drowsy film of medita- tion in his eye showed that his thoughts were far away, as time is measured. “Phey were afraid to come in here much ?”” “Yes; they never liked the woods and mountains, be- eause ainong them the lightning struck. They thought that the Great Spirit was angry with them and would emite them with His thunderbolts if they came in hera, ‘And so they thought the woods and mountains were sacred and not for man.'* “They must have chased the bison and elk here in the geason when there Was no thunder and lightning?” “There's @ hill north o’ here where the lightning they think always strikes in a storm. It’s near tho Bear Lodge, and they're “tarnally afraid of going near “Red Dog did not seem uneasy when he was here.” “No; Red Dog ’s an infidel Indian. He believes none ©’ these superstitions, and for that reason he is hated. He was oncea very bad Indian; but since he has adopted the peace policy hie has stuck to his promisea” “He eays the snow here in winter is forty feet deep tn the valleys. 7 “He lies; for 1 have been here tn winter and it wasn’t more than one foot on the level nowhere, It may have been deeper where it was drifted.” LIEUTENANT ROBINSON’S PATE. Arambling chat thus an drifted like a boat on night-shadowed seas, whither chance wisted. But I will not attempt to recount all the blood-thrilling tales © which I listened. The Colonel dwelt upon his adven- ures with the red men with slow and meditative utterance, and they indented themselves in the plates of memory so as not to beeffaced by subsequent impressions. One small incident is connected with a tragedy which has recently stirred the depths of the public heart, but failed to arouse the government to move a finger of revenge against the butcherers of 1s gallant young soldier, Lieutenant Levi H. Robinson. He was killed by In- dians of the Sioux Nation on February 9, 1874, on Cot- tonwood or Horseshoe Creek, thirty miles north of Fort Laramie, “Oh,” said the Colonet, “I was on my way to Fort Fetiermann, having with me two mule teams anda half-breed servant, 1 was a camping at the head of the Horseshoe, The day before Robinson was Killed I was just through breakfast and had told the boy to put up the mess kit as soon as he could 80 that we could pull out. Then, of a sudden, { heerd the sound of the big drum and cries and yells. From a knoll | saw a large band of Indians danc- ing the war dance in the wildest and fiercest manner near their camp. That time they scared me, I'l never forget the time. Had they known that I was there they would have killed me, surely. At any rate, they would have taken my mules, But they kept on their dancing, and I remained quietly in camp all day, not daring to move away for fear that they would see me. But at night I pulled out and leit them, mighty glad to escape. Next day Lieutenant Robinson was murdered, That's what it meant”? ALONG THR KAPRA. The ecenery in proximity to this camp istame. Up and down the stream, however, the gorges and ravines through which it flows are confined by rough and dark precipices which stand hundreds of feet in height, towering often to the summits of the buttes All the strata of the slate are vertical and appear to the eye like bundies of splinters, fitting naturally together as before the lightning shattered them. The timber is of the same character as that I have hitherto described— pines of moderate size and thinly shadowing an im- mense extent of rocky hulls, The strong gales of tho autumn, in this country, a foretaste of which we have already had, seem to prevent the mature growth of the pines, After a strong wind hundreds of trunks are seen uprooted and fiung on the ground. The bottom along the rapid in many of the canyons through which it rushes is crowded with a dense brake of willows, straight and lithe and standing high above the head of a horseman. To ride through into it is like plunging into darkness, You can neither see to right nor jeft, or even in front. But a pleasant expedient is to cause your horse to wade up the stream, whqse bed in a level gravelled way and the water 1s seldom of greater depth than two feet, Brigadier General Crook left Camp Harney on the 3d of August for Red Cloud Agency. CUBA LIBRE, THE SUSPECTED SCHOONER LAURA PRIDE NOW feather in the balance. ANOTHER EPUPMERAL SENSATION. Quite a community of men are squatted on the banks of Castle Creek, which is a southern branch of the Rapid, and in their midst recently appeared several of the gentler sex, from whence came no one knowa, The diggings there, it is reported, have yielded gold in quan- tities equal to those which first caused a “stampede” from all other gulches to Spring Creek. The days of grace given by General Crook before the order of exit will be enforced will probably be filled with a final sensation which, like previous ones, will dwindle down to the sober proportions of reality and ot modify the general estimate long ago given of the minetal value of the country. Wild reports have Deen listened to for a week of placers which produced $1 in cach panful of dirt washed. They are as false as the similar stories which certain correspondents in June gent to their journals from French Creek, and which have deluded hundreds into preparations to take the foolish step of leaving comfortable trades for the miner's pursuit of a hallucination. STRANGE SHRINKAGE OP VALUE. Probing after the truth in the minds of rough-spoken and desperate-minded frontiersmen, with whom false- hood is more familiar, is an occupation abounding with difficulties and needs to combine a genius for physiog- momy, a knowledge of human nature and shrewdness of Anquisition, in order to be successful. After being sub- to such agencies, a dollar of gold ina pan of dirt | @hrinks to five or ten cents. Every fresh excitement over gold discoveries involves just such a wrestling with the powers of falsehood ere truth will stand ous bright and unimpeachable in her “naked simplicity.” It. is only with incorrigible adventurers, who con- struct glittering fables to induce others to join them in an evasion of the military order, that any difficulty will | ‘De had in enforcing it. All others will obey quietly, and | even with alacrity. A miner, when informed of the | proclamation of General Crook, remarked, “Wal, Tgpace they'll give us our grub on the way, | jow, eh?” ‘idently it is a delightful consolation to contem- plate a change of subsistence--from plain and simple Venison to hard tack and bacon. But fustidiousness sometimes takes freaks which belie its name. In all the guiches north of French Creek, except that of Castle Creek, where the proclamation was only made known yesterday, homeward-bound parties are pass- ing over the trails southward, slowly congregating near the stockade to await the mass meeting on the 10th of | August, The stockade will be garrisoned with a com- | any of cavalry from this camp very soon until Captain | ollock’s movement is consummated. | SILVER AND MARGASITR. A man ip the employ of the eutier at this camp | found, two days ago, a quartz ledge three miles down the Rapid Creek, which, on breaking, exhibited at the | surface of the fracture’ {reo particles of alight yellow Substance having a metallic lustre. The rock is grayish green. This specimen is believed by some persons to | Contain silver, but no test has be to. The Substance is found imbedded in a me resem- | Dling slate und gulena associated, Singular quartz found on Castle Creek has been found to contain only | margasite or bisulpburet of iron. Another specimen @¢ | ore, taken from quartz found on Castle Creek some | weeks ago, resembles more the miargyrite of silver, | which contains 36.05 per cent of sliver. IN NEW YORK—NEWS EXPECTED OF THE STEAM YACHT URUGUAY—WILL THE STEAMER PEDRO ZARILA STOP OFF THE CUBAN COAST? The British schooner Laura Pride, Captain Stevens, which sailed on the lstof June from this port for Port au Prince, Hayti, has returned to this port. Her cargo of warlike munitions, worth upwards of $20,000, has been confiscated by the Haytian Government, at the in- stance of the British and Spanish consuls, on the alle gation that {t was contraband of war, being intended for the use of the Cuban rebels. It isalleged, also, that there ‘was an irregularity in the bills of lading of said vessel. It may be remembered that the Laura Pride was recently chased in the harbor of Port au Prince by the Spanish man-of-war Churrucca (now at Havana), whose commandant had received information, through the Navy Department, that the said Laura Pride intended delivering over her cargo, off Jeremie, in Hayti, to the steam yacht Octavia (now the Uruguay). The Laura Pride is owned by Mr. W. H. Mott, of Oyster Bay, Long Island, and was cleared at the Custom House here by Messrs, Morgan, Custom House agents, at No. 64 Wall street, In the Confiscated cargo of the Laura Pride are enumerated the following:— MUNITIONS OP WAR, Eighteen cases rifles, 3 cases revolvers, 6 howitzers, 884 cases cartridges, 10 cases caps, 300 shot and shell, 65 tons coal, 2 barrels beef, 1 barrel pork,*l barrel rice, 1 bag sugar, 820 pounds tobacco, 86° packages fire crackers, 35 cases cutlery, 15 barrels sugar, 32 bales oakum, 746 pounds hams, 120 packages iron, 275 gallons lard oil, 1 printing press. THE STRAM YACHT URUGUAY. Within a few hours or days news will doubtless be Teceived of the whereabouts of the steam yacht Uru- guay, for whose capture the United States government has given orders should she appear in American waters. On her voyage to Montevideo she would pass slong the Cuban coast, and it is far from impossible that her forty Cuban passengers might feel disposed to make a landing in “Caba Libre,” to help their patriot brethren in fighting the Spantard. The Uruguay left New York on the 5th tos. She is very swift, and is expected to easily elude any Spanish man-of-war that may attempt to chase her. . MORM CUBAN PASSENGERS. On the Sist of July the American steam vessel Pedro Zarila (lately the revenue cutter Campbell) left pier 15 East River for Montevideo with thirty-nine Cuban pas- sengers. She is owned by the wife of Captain Evans, who commanded her, and by Captain George W. Brown, of No, 41 South street (formerly of the United States Navy), a well known Cuban sympathizer. Yesterday evening @ Heranp reporter cailed upon Mr, Brown to learn if the said vessel had any munitions of war on board her, but all he would admit was that every man of the passengers had a musket with him. In con- clusion, news may soon be expected of the Uruguay and the Pedro Zarila Mr. Garcta, the Uruguayan Consul in this city, who lef New York for Montevideo last Satur- | day, says that his government will strongly resent any interference on the part of the Spaniards with these ves- s, unless it be justified by international law. Mean- while, the Cubans in the United States are very san- guine of soon triumphing over their Spanish foes in Cubal | There are undoubtedly other metals than gold or sil- ‘ver in this country in considerable deposits Evidences | of iron are strewn all over the country. The red clay | and red rock in the outskirts of the Hills indicate in | color the effect of Sts presence, and the disintegrated | wienite, which {sso abondant in all the eastern portion | of the Black Hilla, and in which very little gold has been . found, contains tron tn acertain percentage It may yet ‘be found that gold js but an incident of the existence here in great abundance of metals which, while not 60 | rare and ornamental, are far more useful, | INDIAN HOSTILITIRNS, The account of an encounter had by miners with In- | fians a few miles north of Bear Butte, which I recently gave through the telegraph, has been confirmed by an- other report, mdicating the presence at that point of a body of Arrapahoes and Choyennes, with evident hostile Mmvent, A party of miners who went nothward a week ago to search for gold, suddenly, when near Bear Butte, | camo in sight of a force of wartiors painted for batule and well armed.

A DANGEROUS STEWARD, REVENGE UPON A SCHOONER'S CREW—COAL OTL POURED OVER THE PROVISIONS. Deputy Marshal De Clue yesterday arrested John Evans, the steward of the schooner Harbeson Hickman, which had just arrived at the storehouses, foot of Amity street, from Port Nuevitas, Cuba The charge against Evans is attempting to poison the crew. It seems that the schooner hada crew of eight men, in- cluding the captain, two mates andthe prisoner. On July 5the steward gave an order to the sailors to spread canvas and catch the fresh water. The Captain, F. P, Shepard, countermanded the orders of Evans, which gave annoyance to tho latter. Shortly after that the steward gave In- solence to the Captain, who thrust the map out of the cabin where he was at the time The same night Evans procured a lamp and matches and went down into the hold for the purpose of setting fire to her, as he subsequently told Mr. Truss, the first mate, He changed his mind, however, and contented bimself with the destraction of the signal lights on board. The ves- sel was then lying in port at Nuevitas Evans went ashore on the morning after the incident spoken of, and as he stepped over the side he declared that he was going to see the American consul ashoro and he would make it “the darkest trip Captain Shepard had ever taken.” They were about to weigh anchor and sail for New York when a search was made of the hold, which revealed the fact ‘that the provision had been saturated with coal oil, 80 as to render bat little of it fit for use, The oi! had been emptied into the flour, over the raisins, prunes, beans, liquor, and everything, with the exception of @ few articles in the galley, was unfit for use; and the stove and utensils of the galley had been broken. The Captain then made a demand upon the Consul to surrender the steward, informing the Consul of the state of affairs. Evans was accordingly placed in irons and taken aboard the schooner, where he was lodged between decks and closely watched during the passage home. He has been in confinement forty-two days and has already suffered considerable for his heinous offence, The prisoner will be taken before United States Com tmiasiouer Winslow for examination to-day. A DROWNING CASUALTY, A collision, in which one life was unfortunately sacrt- ficed, occurred in the harbor the night before Inst, The | yacht Amelia, belonging to Judge McAdam, of the | Marine Court, while on her way to Coney Island, col- lided with a fishing smack, The accident was owing to the fact that the pilot was intoxicated at the time, Mire, Elizabeth O'Connor, of No. 338 West Twenty-ninth street, was thrown from the poop into the water and disappeared from ‘the surface immediately, Eugene Loullyetta, a clerk of the Marine rt, inetantly | jumped overboard and after considerable difficulty sue | ceeded tn rescuing the drowning woman On being brought on board everything possible was done to re- snacitate her.

A NEW ENGLAND SLEEPY HOLLOW. How He Was Received at the Home of His Early Years. SKETCH OF HIS BOYHOOD AND RIPER YBARS. Nortnrracp, Maas, August 17, 1875. Mr. Moody, the celebrated evangelist, has said that {t is quiet and rest that he secks during the ensuing few weeks, That being the case, it is fair to presume that his wishes will be abundantly gratified, for he has hit upon one of the most solemnly quiet towns to be found anywhere in New England, and it is impossible for him to do otherwise than to find happy relaxation, free from the importunities and invasions of anxious intruders, And what must add to the charms and pleasures of his chosen retreat is the fact that he is not only domiciled among his own kindred and friends of early.boyhood, but is also enjoying the scenes and reminiscences of that same rural home and mansion in which ho first saw the light of heaven, and from which he went out upon the broad world somo twenty odd years ago, That “THERE 18 NO PLACE LIKB HOME,” as the song goes, must, therefore, be most fully realized by Mr. Moody after so protracted an absence and such an active and eventful career as his has been fn his un- tiring and industrious efforts to evangelize all mankind. As already intimated, the town is one of peculiar soli- tude, and itis impossible to imagine the effect which such a sudden transition must have upon one who has been so accustomed to the stirring scenes and endless enthusiasm which must have become part of the daily existence of Mr. Moody during the last two years of his eventful life, It is one of those charming river towns which one sees along the Connecticut Val- ley, all the way from Brattleboro down to Springfleld, but is nevertheless wholly differ- ent from the others, The Connecticut River rans through the middle of it, but this natural division does not draw a geographical line, for Northfield exists on both sides of the stream. There are geographical divisions within its scope, however, which are peculiar, for in a twenty minutes’ ride or sowvrom the heart of the village a person can find himself in three counties and in the three different States of Massachusetts, Ver- mont and New Hampshire, It may also be stated that while Northfield itself ts a place of ALMOST SEPULCHRAL SOLITUDE, : it is still In the Immediate shadow of three of the most thrifty and enterprising towns to Be found anywhere in | New England—viz., Greenfield, Keeno, N. H., and Brattleboro, Vt. Tho Connecticut River and Central Vermont railroads skirt it on either sido of the stream, and thus frequent communi- cation is ufforded with the more active outside world. These modern accompaniments, however, are of | very little account to the domesticated townsmen of | Mr, Moody. They are athrifty and industrious com- munity by themselves, and care nothing whatever about the Keely motor, the Beecher scandal, or tho price of gold. A modest and well kept hotel, almost Lilliputian in dimensions, is annually occupied by a few tourists from such cities as Boston, New York and Philadelphia, but their presence fuils to disturb the equanimity and chronic industry of the rustic North- fielders, Even THE RETURN OF MR, MOODY to his birthplace failed to create a ripple of excitement in this staid old matter of fact community. Indeed I ques- tion if more than a third ofthe people in town knew that the celebrated evangelist had left his field of labor in the mother country until he made his appearance in the village this morning. There were no ponderous com- mittees of reception and welcome, no display of flags and bunting, and no noisy booming of cannon to herald the approach and advent of this most celebrated religious worker of the world, Ho ar- rived at the depot the same as any ordinary passenger and was cordially welcomed by one of his brothers, who quietly drove him to the old homestead ina rickety buggy, scarcely less honored by time and service than the careful and gentle steed which hauled them Now and then an old neighbor recognized his distinguished townsman of years ago and there was a short and cor- dial greeting, but beyond this there was nothing to gignify the presence. here of one of the most distin- guished men of the period. This notable absence of “pomp, splendor and enthusiasm” must havo been ‘highly gratifying to Mr. Moody, for it is well nown that he {s emphati- cally opposed to any demonstrations whatever in honor of his presenco and his past services and en- deavors in Christianizing mankind. In New York, it will be remembered, he industriously avoided every- thing looking to an ovation, and it was the same with him in Hartford and Springteld, where ho delayed for a day or so on his way home, Itis related that in ©.

The farm and dwelling occupied by Mr. Moody during his vagation from labor are the joint property of himself and two brothers, the two latter of whom adhere to their original vocation of agriculturists, The farm is moderately fertile, but {ts products are sufficient to fur- nigh acomfortable living for the two brothers of tho evangelist, both of whom are his seniors. It is up from the valley and forms what is known as “Moody's Hil,” a name probably derived from Mr. Moody’s paternal ancestor. Around this hill is a most charming drive, which 1s often enjoyed by those who favor the town with a visi. There is a little tra- ditional taaart connected with the locality; the particu- Jars are furnished by an inscription on a marble monu- ment, erected on the roadside, informing the passer-by that on that spot Nathaniel Dickinson, a white man, was ecalped and killed by Indians about 125 years’ ago, The Moody homestead, where the evangelist and four brothers and three sisters were born, is situated on the highest eminence of the farm, and commands a splendid view of the oe mountains and the windin; fiver in the valley below. Gazing upon the piacii stream one could hardly fail to recall the touching lines which were dedicated to it years ago by Lucius Powers, a famous Springfield poet:— Flow on, loved Connecticut, Furnishing shad to Springfield urnishing shad to § And freedom to ‘man. Everything around the homestead indicates industry and neatness, and even as I rode past this morning the | two brothers of Mr. Moody were engaged in administer. ing needy repairs and tasty ornaments, and the women of the household were busily engaged in the duties of the dairy. Farther down the road I met the great evan- gelist himself, indulging ina morning exercise in the shape of a lively horseback ride. He was not dressed in the exact costume, but the skill and speed displayed in- dicated that he might have been an experienced jockey rather than the Christian hero whom he really was. REMINISCENCES OF THR MODERN PAUL The Northfield people all think well of Mr. Moody and the mission to which he seems w have devoted his whole life, That he has turned out to be the man ho has, though, is a surprise to those who associated with him tn boyhood. His education was very limited, and he was rather moro remarkable for mischief than for close application to study. This, I find, is the universal sentiment of his schoolmates, fis father died suddenly when he was quite a lad, and the townspeople say that his end was hastened by intemperate hebita This be- ing the fact, it is a trifle surprising that his weakness was not inherited by some of his children, but, forta- nately and singularly. all of them turned out most wor- thy and exemplary citizens — Perhaps it is the memory of his ancestor that renders the evangelists power in portraying tho evile of intemperance. so irresistible, At e age =f fifteen young Moody lived with Rev. Dr, Everett, a Unitarian minister, then resident in Northfield, and it was there, probably, that he became first inspired with the religious enthusiasm which has marked his career ever since, At about seventeen years of age he entered his uncle’s boot and shoe store, in Boston, as clerk, and soon after became deeply interested in religion, taking a rominent part in the payer and conference meetings of Rev. Dr. Kitk, of whose church be finally expressed a desire to becor member, His case was given to the proper committee, who, together with the pastor, de- cided that, owing to his sudden conversion and youth- fulness, he had better be putena year’s probation, This was too much for young Moouy. “Ho had become convinced that his Heaveniy Master had called upon him to do work in His vineyrad, and before his year of probation had expired he went from Boston to Cheago, ‘without money or friends, but with a strong conviction, as he often expressed ft, that God would caro and pro: vide for him. In Chicago he soon found @ situation ag clerk in @ retail boot and shoe store, making an ment with his employer that he should bo allowed to taik with his customers on the subject of religion at any and all times he saw fit, And here, at the age of about eighteen years, he ie said to have made many conversions. During the war he “was with the Chris- tian Commission, and bis labors at that time were scarcely less effective than those which have created ch @ religious revolution throughout Europe, THR PIRST MEETINGS IN AMERICA, It has not transpired that Springtield, Mass., 1s the wickedest city in the United States, but it is, neverthe- less, pretty certain that the fires meetings which Messrs. Moody and Sankey will hold in this country will be in that city, ‘They will probably be commenced in five or six weeks, the two evangelizers spending tho Tocantime io retirement with their friends, AY, AUGUST 19, 1875.——WITH SUPPLEMENT.

YON MEYEB AND WEBER AND THE MIDWIFE HELD TO BATT. ‘The death of Mra. Ureula Wick and the tearing to pieces of her child through the alleged negligence and bungling of Dra. Von Meyer and Weber and a midwifo named Eliza Altenheim was up for examination before Coroner Croker yesterday. Dr. Von Meyer madoa dese perate effort yesterday to justify his conduct, but his story is a peculiar one and appears to contradict itself in several instances, Two ladies, one of whom lives in the house where tho terrible tragedy was enacted, testi fied that the treatment of the poor patient was simply barbarous, and her husband fully corroborated their statements, 5 The jury bronght tn the following verdict:—“We find that the said Ursula Wick came to her death by unskil- ful management of the midwife, Mrs. Eliza Altenheim, and the action of Drs. Julius Von Meyer and Theodore Weber in abandoning their patient” Accompanying the verdict was a vote of thanks to Coroner Croker and Deputy Coroner Dr. Knox for the thorough manner in which they had investigated tho case, Each of the prisoners was held to bail In the sum of $1,000 to await the action of the Grand Jury.
