There were five questions in writing propounded to the jury in substance as i'ollows: 1st. Was John Burton of sound and disposing mind and memory when he made liis wiii, September 3d, lfcGG.

The answer as recorded is, that he was. •j !. Was the will procured by the undue in 11 uonce of his wife or her relatives.

The answer is, that there was no undue influence. oil. Was the will procured by fraud?

The answer is, that there was fraud practiced, but by whom, or on whom, is not stated, nor did the jury say that the will was procured by fraud.

Jth. Was the' will properly signed by the testator and tiie witnesses in each other's esenee?

The answer is. that it is. 5th. II is there been a former trial and adjudication of this ease?

Til" answer under the instruction of the Court is in the atlirmative. The agreements of the jury on the first and fourth questions was the result of an agreement of the counsel in open court. Of course the case goes to the .Supreme Court.

THE veleran agriculturist of the Xew York Tribune, Horace Crceley, has written a letter to tiie President of the Iowa

rps

Association, about the contents of which there is much dispute among that fraternity. The editor of the Clinton Age who claims to be an expert in deciphering bad manuscript translates the letter as follows "TIMTTJITE

OFFICE, X. Y., April 13, '71.

DEAR SIR I have wondered all long whether any d—n squirt had denied the scandal about the Prcs't meeting Jane in tiie woods on Saturday. I have hominy, carrots, aud It. 11. ties more than I could move with eight steers. If eels are blighted, dig them early. Any insinuation that brick ovens are dangerous to hams gives me the horrors. GREELEY'."

The editor of the Age insists that this is a literal translation. But another Towa editor, who had worked as a typesetter in the Xew York Tribune office, contends that the proper reading is thus: "I have waited till longer waiting would seem discourteous, and now decide that I cannot attend your Press meeting next June, as I would gladly do. I find so many cares and duties pressing upon me, that with the weight of years, I feel obliged to decline nearly every invitation that takes me over a day's journev from home. Yours among them,

HORACE GREELEY."

The controversy among the Iowa editors concerning the reading of the remarkable epistle was still raging at last advices "with a warmth and zeal only equalled by that of the translators of the uniform description of the ancient Persians who worshiped Ormazd.

A morning paper has the following: A curious case came up Thursday afternoon before Justice Lcdwith, in Essex Market Police Court. It was the application for the issue of a warrant for the arrest of James H. Blood, alias Dr. J. H. Harvey, the "Co." of tiie firm.of Woodhull & Clailin. The application was made by Annie Claflin, mother of Mrs. Wood hull. Mrs. Claflin says, in her affidavit, that Biood, otherwise known as Dr. J. H. Harvey, occupies the same bed with her daughter, Victoria, and that said Blood has been in her family for the last six years that since his entry into her family he has made every effort to corrupt and has corrupted notonly her daughter Victoria, but through his machinations and intrigues, has excited her daughter, Tennessee, and entirely weaned them from deponent, and deponent says that during the time she resided in said house she has otten heard said Blood insist that her daughter Tennessee should make efforts to secure the attendance of different married gentlemen, in order that said Blood and said Victoria and Tennessee might combinedly make money out of such persons and deponent says she has known such married gentlemen, who have been taken in and blackmailed in said house. She had often heard Blood, who is receiver of all moneys that come into possession of the firm of Woodhull, Clafln & Co., say that no books or any accounts have been kept by said firm until very recently, and that in case any trouble should arise between dealers with said firm and themselves a

Since then she had no home, and had become weary of life.

Bealli from Excessive Rope Jumping. By a notice elsewhere, it will be seen that another death has occurred in our city from excessive rope jumping, a little daughter of James A. Moody having died on Monday evening, from fnfiammation of the bowels, brought on by over indulgence in that exercise. While rope jumping may be a pleasurable and healthful recreation, within reasonable limits, the tendency to excess, in the excitements of the exercise, should lead to disuse of the practice entirely. In this case we learn that on Thursday, in the strife with her companions to see which could jump the greatest number of times without stopping, the deceased accomplished the feat something over three hundred times, after which, feeling greatly exhausted, she sat or laid down upon the grass for a considerable time, probably,

by so doing. The next morn-

to return home from

TO IKABE.

In returning my (hanks to the trade for their liberal patronage in the past, and soliciting continuance of the same, I beg leave to state that, having made extensive addition to my works, and increased facilities, 1 am now prepared to till orders with promptness and dispatch.

The VIXEGAK -which I manufacture from eider and distilled spirits is entirely PURE, and FREE FR'^M ALL MIXERAL ACIDS OR OTHER POISOXOUS IXGREDIEXTS SO FREQUEXTLY USED IX ITS MAXUFACTURE. It is both clear and of beautiful color, and made from the best and most wholesome material. 1* warrant it to keep pickles both clear and fresh for years, thus making their consumption not only agreeable, but healthy.

Owing to the popularity and increasing demand for my Vinegar, I shall lierenfter, for t.lie better protection of myself and my trade, in addition to my well-known brands, use also a "TRADE MARK,"'and all persons are hereby cautioned against using the same, and I shall prosecute any and all parties so doing to the full exteutof the law. Country merchants can obtain my brands of

EAIB VIGOR.

AIEK'S

A I I O

For the Renovation of the Hair!

The Groat Desideratum of {fir Aire

A dressing which is at once agreeable, healthy, and effectual for preserving the hair. Faded or gray hair is soon restored to its original color and the gloss ana freshness of youth. Thin hair is thickened, falling hair cheeked, and baldness often, though not always, cured by its use. Nothing can restore the hair where the follicles are destroyed, or the gland* atrophied or decayed. But such as remain can be saved for usefulness by this application. Instead of fouling the hair with a pasty sediment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its occasional use will prevent the hair from falling off, and consequently prevent baldness. Free from those deleterious substanecs which make some preparations dangerous and injurious to the hair, the Vigor can only benefit but not harm it. If wanted merely for a

IIAIll DliES.SIiVG,

nothing else can be found so desirable. Containing neither oil nor dye, it does not soil white cambric, and yet lasts longer on the hair, giving it a rich glossy lustre and a grateful perfume.
