An liuans Woman Kills berllusband with an Axe. Yc.-terday morning Messrs. John liusscll ad T F. Hate her brought Mrs, Mary J. Whitaker under ars r> st to Lou'Sv ID, to be lodged in jail for safe keeping, und< r a charge of killing her husband. The pir.ii culars ol which, as near as we could get them, are as follows : Ou Tuesday morning list, be tween midnight and day Mrs Ward, who is living in the yard of Mr. Joshua P. Whitaker, and is tlie mother of his wife, heard a noise as if some on'e was beating another and heard so ne one groaning, a? she thought, but the noise soon stopped and she could h-ar nothing, but she soon saw Mrs. Miry J? Whittaker puss by the house s >me three or four time?, and loaring that some* thing se-ious had happened she got up and went out 10 s-e what v»as the matter, but Mrs. Whitaker had go 1 out of sight and she could not see or hear anything Not feeling satisfied to stop heie, she wok up some ot the hands on the place 10 go with her into Mr, .Whitaker’s house to s-e what was the mutter. When tney op n-d ih • door tney could see f om the light in their hands, Mr. W. I>ing 00 his b-d and Ins la. e and hea l was v-ry blood?. Tins sight ol curse flightened them and they Would not go into the house, but s-m aft-r Mr. Hitcher, » bo lives a short distance away. He got there in a tew nurute-> and went into ihe house and foun t Mr, Joshua P. Wbnaker lying on the tied, dead. He had be-n siruek on the 1 ead six times wiih an" axe, breaking the skull ev-ry lick. Os course this was an awful sight 10 look upon. The near est neighbors were s nt i-r imme diately and an iuves'iga ion of the terrible affair be-an to take place; Mrs. W, had made her escape, car rying with her, her three children, ihe oldest ot which \va3 only six years old See was found about i.i .e -r ten o’clock ilia' day and carried b lore Justice Russell and commit' ted lo jail for luri her hearing. Mr. R al.-o field a co-oner’s inq i- s' ov< r ihe body of ih-deceased, and the verdict of tie jury was that lie c 11:1c to his dea h by blows infl cted with an axe or other sharp instrument in the hands of some unknown person. The evidence is not positive tfia Mrs W. commuted the at, but from all the circumstances no.mec ed with the aw ful alllnr, she is undo .b' edly the gui’ty party. She has beeif pretty badly if ranged lor some t me aiui Mr. W. vv .s war e.i to watch her, bat he paid he was not af.aid of her. She will not speak to any one, on any su ject since she arrived in town. Mr. W. was a peac-r ble and hard working arizen, and his umime ly death will b- regieited by mam. He live l ii the upper part of the county about twenty miles from Luii-ville. Mrs. Whit ak-r is now cuifi e ! in j iil and will have to re' main there until ihe November tern ol the Superior Court, unless there is a called term of the Conn f>r her especial case, and we trust that Judge Johnson w ill m ike this call, for ii is a great pity that she shoe and have id remain nere i ■ jail so long. Fros. Bond, the W.re Walker. Y serdav morning, according to appointment. Prof. Bond drove into town and had his wire stretched over the tops ol two of the s ores and between three and four o’clock p. m. he aseend-d to the top of one pf ihe stores and proceeded to show to the crowd, who had assem bled to witness his Fat?, what lie knew about wireswalking. He did everything that he advertised ; walking forward and backward, balancing on one fool, sitting down, lying down, hanging by one 1-g, hanging by ihe toes, gymnastic per formance. walking withboihf-e in a bag, then with his head in the bag. The perfoimanee closed wi h the imitation of an old lady drunk, and br mghi down the house, <>r we should sav th- Professor Right in the midst cf the performance he left the wire, comedown <m ihe ground and took up a collection which neit ed him $30.29. He thanked the citizens for their kind liberality and said that Louisville contained more liberal hearted citizens according to her population than any lit le to wn he had visited since he had been in the Siaie. His fea's were all good and the cowd that saw him were all well pleased anil seemed satisfied that they had got their money’s worth. In Memoriam.
