Precisely at 3 o'clock. Saturday
morning in the A,esize Court, when
Justice Street took his position on the
bench, thh'two prisoners, Wilson and
Burke, appeared in the dock to receive
eentenoo on conviction of nanslaugh-
ter iitoonnectLoit` with the death of the
late Detective Pharr. They were
nattily dressed in. suite of blaek,sitnilar
to those worn at the trial, and were
seemingly not impressed with the '
position:in which they were plead.
• When the Judge commenced to de-
liver his •renrarks the prisoner Wilson
steed up. He (Wilson) interjected a
remark that his counsel had intend-
ed to make an appeal for mercy, and
that in the absense of that, gentleruan
he would ask his Lordship to be as
lenient.as possible.
Those in the court room listened
with breathless attention to Justice
Street's remarks which were addressed
to Wilson in a clear, distinct voice as
follows.:
'"The fate that has overtaken you is
another example of the terrible danger
of icarrying loaded weapons. The
carrying of weapons is entirely un-
necessary in this country. .Diad you
not been doing this you would not
likely find yourself in the position you
are in to day, The sentence that
might bo inipriscnment for lice, and
you have narrowly escaped the ex-
treme penalty of the law. It is merely
an accident that you are not now lathing
sentenced to he hanged instead of im-
prisoned." Ilere a slight simile of sat-
isfaction suffused the prisoners' coun-
tenances.- Au audible warmer of
anticipatory intereet went the rounds'
of the benches.
"If the constable whose life void
took," continued his honor, "had hap-:
retied to see the act which your
conerade did, you would have ineoni
undoubtedly convicted of murder "' r
This remark was uttered with (mi-
phatic emphasis, and Wilson looked
solemn. "As it is," said the Judge,
44owing to a technicality, you have not
been convicted of that crime. As the
oonstahle was not ".strictly authorised
in elle course he took, and as there
were some circumstances of perhaps
ainneoessaty aggravation in the case,
I do not inflict the highest penalty
which 1. might under the law. The
sentence of the court is that you be
imprisoned in the penitentiary for
twelve years."
Burke thea stood and reeeived a like
sentence.
The prisoners both smiled in a self-
satisfied manner. Evidently they
thought :the sentence might have been

chair, A. large nrtrnl•.er of new ap-
plications for insurance were earefutly
looked over and passed. Claims were
also presented and adjusted. The
losses by fire this sprint so far, have
been the heaviest for years. The loss
of a large barn and content, in Wale
lace, was a heavy one, the property
being insured for $1500 in the How -
ick. Another loss of $600 by light-
ning in Morris township, was also
settled. But notwithstanding this
bad streak ,of luck, the directors will
meet all obligations without any
trouble and will not require to levy
any extra assessments. The Howiek
company is not alone unfortunate this
spring, as almost every Company do-
ing business has suffered this spring
already by lightning, something never
heard of before so early in the season.
