The Savannah Daily Herald. TUKSDAY. AVGUST ISf.J A Tra-Wlvfd Man llontH I'ummtt. Hukidf In Hi* tell |From the Collar Fall* (I«wi) Gazette.) Last fall there appeared in this citv one Frank N. Case, agent for a mutual are in surance compauy. located at Madison, Wis consin He represented himself as a single man, and paid his addresses to the daughter of an esteemed and intelligent family—the name of which w omit by special request. The parents did not favor the suit, Case be- j W almost a stranger, and Ins age, neatly fonv was deemed unsuitable to the young maiden of scarcely twenty years However, he succeeded in winning the girl’s affections, and she viewing him through the roseate hue of her girlish love, with her guileless, unsus pecting nature, believed him all that her fan cy painted him. The parents being deter mined to prevent the match, availed them selves of a temporary’ absence on the part ot Case to send the girl to friends at Strawberry Point, Delaware county', to get her out of the way On his return. Case, by some means, learned her whereabouts, when he immedi ately sought her. The result was that the voun'T girl, awav from home and the loving - care which would have saved her, yielded to the specious pleading of on artful villiac, ana consented to a claudestinelmarriage, which was effected at Delhi, in this State, on the 20th day of Aptil last. , , . Soon after the marriage. Case and she who supposed herself his honored wife returned to her parents atthis place, who, seeing that further opposition would be useless, received them kindly and cordially. So matters pass ed on until a month or six weeks ago, when the lather of the lady was informed by a citizen 01 this place that Case had a wife living in Wisconsin at the time of his mar riage here. As might be expected, this in telligence fell with crushing weight upon a family whose good name was above reproach, and no one of whose members had ever suf fered even the shadow ot dishonor to tall ou their domestic hearth-stone. The father im mediately began investigating the matter, and found the information but too true. Cau tiously' he went to work to collect the evi dence, having obtained which, he had Case arrested the early part of this week, He had his examination yesterday before Justice Crosby .1. B. Powers »ppeanug for the State, and A. F. Brown conducted the de- The facts developed in the examinations, and learned from other reliable sources, prove Case to bit a villain of the darkest dye. It is satisfactorily .ascertained that lie married uot less than five different women in \ er roont, and contiguous States, before com mencing his career in the West. At one time lie was pay ing his addresses to the sis ter of a lady now liviog in this city, and she was about accepting lnm, when at th» advice of friends she wrote down to another part ot the State where he had been living, lor the purpose of inquiring into his character. Ihe answer returned was that he had a wile liv mg there, and two or three children. A happy circumstance it would have been for the unfortunate girl whom be dishonored here had she taken the same precaution.— Since he has been West, Case lias marred no less than four other women, and we under stand that at the time of his arrest, he was intending to marry the fifth one, a young lady residing in this State, not a great dis tance from Cedar Falls. He was arrested of course on the charge of bigamy. The plea of the defendant was a novel one, remarka ble for its barefaced shamefulness, its un qualified acknowledgment of heiaeous crime. The defense was his : In 1800 Case married one Lenora Cady, who, he says, deserted him. Shortly after ward, he married Hannah Sutherland, the only daughter of a wealthy farmer of Green county, Wisconsin. Some time after this marriage he procured a divorce from Lenora Cady. He now claims that he did not com mit bigamy in marrying the lady in this place, because Hannah was not his lawful wife, he having married her before he had procured a divorce from Lenora. He ac knowledged that he had committed bigamy, but it was in Wisconsin and not in Iowa; therefore the court had no jurisdiction in the case, and should discharge him from cus tody. The prosecution offered in evidence a certified copy of the marriage certificate, showing that Case had been married in legal form to Hannah Sutherland, and ns the mar riage with the lady here was also proved, he clearly stood convicted of bigamy, and was held to bail in the sum of fifteen hundred dollars for his appearance at the next term of the District Court, in default of which he was committed to Ibe county jail. There is no doubt but that Case was divorced from Lenora, and not until after he had married Haunah, as he had a certified copy of the diverce bill in court, but it being not properly authenticated, it was not admitted as evi dence. was a scene of thrilling interest when Case's last victim came into the court-room. So overcome was she by her sense of the de giading and humiliating position in which the was placed, that her emotions well nigh overcame her, and she had to be supported by her aged mother, Who accompanied her. It was well that she was not obliged to go on the witness-stand, for we do not believe she could have passed the terrible ordeal. As soon as the mother saw Case, she shook her fist at him, and exclaimed. “Oh, you in famous villain! If I had a pistol 1 would shoot you dead on the spot," and the clenched teeth and flashing eyes ot the injured mother were a guarantee that she would not have been slow to execute her threat, had oppor tunity offered. Case sat there with a sneer iug smile on his dark, swarthy face, ap parently the least concerned of any one pre sent The girl is a noble-looking specimen of womanhood, and those who knew her say that she is as good as tair. Young and un experienced, she was unable to look beneath the mask which hid the incarnation of evil, and fell a victim to the wiles of one whose long experience rendered him competent to pursue his nefarious designs with success. P. S. —Just as we go to press, we learn that the prisoner committed suicide this morning. Last evening, Officer Sessions placed Case in charge ol A. F. Brown, who took the prisoner to his room to puss the night. This morning, Brown went to break fast, leaving the men in bed, haudcuffed, as he had been all night. About eight o clock, Officer Sessions got the key and went up to take charge of Case. He entered the outer office and passed to the bedroom, when lie discovered Case hanging in the doorway, he having taken a pair of drawers and tied them over the transom and ab sul his neck. The officer immediately cot him down, and sent Brown, who had in the meantime come in, for a physician.. Life, however, was extinct, and Case had passed beyond all reach of human laws, to appear beiore the tribunal ot the Most High. His sell-destruction was a determined effort, as, when discovered, his feet rested upon the floor. He must have ) drawn up his knees and kept the weight of his body upon iris neck until strangulation took place, and he so far gone that lie could not stand upon his feet. He left a letter to his wile in tnis place saying that he did the deed through love of her, and that htr lather had driven him to the act. Thus igno miniously ended the earthly career of one who has blasted the happiness of many a tainiiy circle ; and as he was detested and abbored while living, no sympathy oi respect will be attached to his memory now that he is dead Fashions is Haik.—Tbe Saratoga carres vesdcnt ol tbe Boston Post writes as fol lows : I have unqualified pleasure in mentioning tbe lah of the waterfall— a monstrous ‘-in vention of tlie enemy” of beauty which should bavc died at its birth.

THE TRIAL OF WIRZ. The Abandonment of the Case by Prisoner’s Counsel**Emotion of Wirz. The withdrawal of Judge Hughes and the . other counsel ol the prisoner Wirz. on VV’td nesdav, in consequence of the dissolution and reorganization of the Military Commis sion, produced the greatest sensation in Court. When Judge Hughes packed up bis books and walked out ot Court, the prisoner looked amazed from his restless, gray eyes, and this merged into consternation, when his only remaining counsel, Mr. Peck, arose aud an- j nounced that he also retired from the case. Wirz called Mr. Peck to him, and with flowing tears expressed his legret at this de termination on the part of his counseL He was assured by his Isle counsel that they could be ot no ’service to him; that he tyould probably fare better in the hands of the Judge Advocate than if defended by special counsel; that it was impossible for them (Messrs. Hughes and Peck) to remain in the case under the circumstances, when it is clearly apparent that the Commission would not be governed by the well known princi ples of law ; and that if the proceedings of Tuesday and Wednesday could be sustained and tolerated as good law, the same proceed ings could be repeated at any stage of the trial hereafter, and as often as the prosecu tion might deem itpioper to revise erroneous action, as the same should occur Irom time lo time. The President of the commission suggested that the prisoner was not without counsel • that the Judge Advocate was, by law, the attorney lor the defendant. Thereupon the commission adjourned un til Thursday, to give the Judge Advocate time to prepare for the defence of the pri soner. Immediately upon the convening of the commission on Wednesday morning, Judge Hughes offered a motion which he said would take precedence ot all other proceedings, and he desired tuat the motion be beard. The Pn sideut replied that the motion could be heard hereafter. The language of the motion is as follows: “Henry W;rz, the prisoner, now present by his counsel, moves and asks this Military Commission to discharge him from furthet peril and proceedings upon the charges here tolore proseuted ugaiust him, and which the said commission, and each member thereof was sworn to try, and to which charges ami specifications, each aud every one of them, he has iii -person, entered his plea of ‘ not guilty,’ for the following reasons : “That after the swearing in of the Presi dent and members of Said commission, and after his plea of not guilty thereto, to wit. on Tuesday, the 22d day of August, 1805, the said commission having met and conven ed in pursuance of previous adjournment, he, the said Henry Wirz, not being present, the said commission did, without his presence or consent, either express or Implied, adjourn not to any time or day certain; and for the further reason, that since the said adjourn ment his counsel have received official no tice from the Judge Advocate of said com mission that muterial changes and alterations have been made in the charges and specifica tions, and that it is proposed to try upon charges and specifications so altered and amended in their altered and amended form, to which he does .not consent. He prays, therefore, that as to said original charges and specifications he may go free and acquitted. (Signed) Henry Wirz. “By his counsel, Hughes, Denver and Peck, and Louis Hcliade.” After the withdrawal of his counsel, Wirz addressed a letter to the commission stating his case in a frank and manly manner, and the commission resolved to see him supplied with able counsel. HORRIBLE OUTRAGE IS MISSOURI. Judge Wright and Four of Hi* Sons Murdered. On Thursday afternoon last Judge Lewis F. Wright and four ot his sons were cruelly and inhumanely murdered by the road side, on the route from Rolla to Houston,some five miles Southwest of the former place. The murders, as we are informed, were committed by a squad of Miller County mil itia, some nine in number, under command of Colonel Babcock, who resides in either Miller or Cole County. It appears that this Colonel and bis squad of militia, on Tuesday last, went to the res idence of Judge Wright, iu Phelps County, about ten miles from Rolla. They remained there until Thursday. ’ On that day they ar rested Judge Wright. aDd five of his sous. Some sort of au investigation was made into accusations brought against the parties, either fancied or real, when it was deter mined to take them to Rolla, as was given out, for further trial. Mrs. Wright, the wife and step-mother of the Judge, and his sons, at first implored Colonel Babcock not to take her family away. Finding that her entreaties were unavail ing she then besought him to permit her to accompany them. This also was refused, but upon her imploring Idm to do something for her protection, i.s she was fearful of be ing murdered if left alone the youngest son. a mere strippling, was released. The Judge was then mounted on a horse by himself, and his four sons upon two other horses, under guard of the squad ot militia, ostensibly to be taken to Rolls. Before reaching that point, as stated above, they were all inhumanly butchered and their bodies lett lying in the brush by the road side. No less than twenty-six shots were fired into the persons of the five ! Twelve ol them took effect iu their heads. Before the bodies were reached by the frantic wife and mother and her remaining son, four of the live were dead, and the fifth iusensiblc and dyiug. About five o'clock Thursday evening word came to Roll* that the murders hud ocen committed, creating intense feelings of sor row and indignation. Nothing, however, was done in the matter that evening. Next morning, a wagon was sent out, and the bodies of the five murdered meu were brought into Rolla. A gentleman who saw them says they pre sented a horrible appearance, their fhces all ghastly with wounds and blood, and black ened with powder. Judge Wright had been shot in the side-lace, the weapon being held so close as to burn it, and leave large blotches of powder slicking in the skin. —Missouri Re jiubhcan, Mwuluy. Fenian Riot in Ireland.—A conflict has occurred between the constabulary and the Fenians, at a place called Daugan, In the county of Cork. The police, seven in num ber, had arrested a di unken and disorderly man during the morning. It being a fair day in the village, and some two hundred people attempted to effect his release by force. The police, however, were successful in resisting this attack, and repaired to a cabin In the vicinity with their prisoner. At this stage a young peasant, Jumping on on elevated part ot the ditch near, addressed the crowd, call ing on them as “true Fenians” not to be afraid of a “handful of police,” but to show “that they were able to fight for the freedom ot Ireland.” The crowd then attacked tbe cottage into which the constabulary had en tered, breaking the doors and windows with stones, and threatening tq set fire to the bouse. On this being attempted the police discharged their rifles, three of them firing two shol9 each, three others one shot, and cnenot firing at all. The result was that three personstn the crowd were seriously and one mortally wounded.
