Love and Murder.
JL BRAZILIAN JUDGE THE SEDUCER AND
MURDERER OF A YOUNG GIRL.
Ri. Janeiro Correspondence New York Herald.
August 17th the Capital of Maranbam
■was roused from its eustoma’y inanity
by the discovery of an atrocious murder,
committed bv one of its chief men, high
in the judicial ranks one of the Judges
of the Tribunal of Commerce of Maran
ham—a tribunal whose jurisdiction ex
tended over one-fourth the immense Em
pire of Brazil.
Desembargader Ponte* isguciro, the
murderer, was a Judge of high reputation
as well as of high category, a widower,
sixty-five years of age, whose charactei
was unblemished, save by a lia Ison, trivial
in this countrvof easy morality, with a
girl of fifteen to sixteen years, which
commenced about two years ago when
she was only fourteen years of age. l'ue
girl was of notoriously loose character,
but the old Judge was infatuated witn
her, and for more than a year he bore
with her vagaries, her thefts, her drunk
enness and her infidelities. At last the
strained bow broke, the deep infatuation
which had possessed him turned to a
deadly hatred, and it would seem that
about a year ago he employed a Lieuten
ant to make away with nor, or, as this
officer now' asserts, to inflict a severe
iloging on her. Hisagentfailedhiin,and
by the advice of his friends the old Judge
obtained a year’s leave of absence and set
out for a neighboring Province, appa
rently to forget her.
But, even absence seemed only to have
strengthened his murderous lougiug, for
in three or four months he returned to
Maranham, bringing with him one of the
numerous bravos who furnish the weap
ons for personal or party hatreds in this
country, a man mimed Guilbeimine, and
the bottle of chloroform which played a
conspicuous part 'hereafter,
TIIE DEADLY DEED.
Immediately after his return the old
Judge renewed his relations with the
girl, and these continued without inci
dent for nearly three months. But on
the 14th of August the ancient lover call
ed the girl to his rooms, which were on
the first floor. He received her wit ca
resses and kind words, set before her
sweetmeats, and when she hud betaken
of them desired her to enter the adjoin
ing bed-room. Behind the door vas the
bravo Uuftlrrrmino. and as the girl
passed it, he darted on her,' sqrnw-* Ur.,
by (he throat and thrust a gag into her
mouth. This done, the old Judge rwdi
<ed in to satiate his hatred, so long dis
tgulsed. He forced the pinioned and gag
(sged girl to inhale chloroform, and when
,«hc dropped senseless at his feet In' stab
! bed her repeatedly with a poniard in the
’heat and stomach, cut. her head nearly
• off, and throwing himself upon her, act u
ally bit her like a ravenous beast, in she
rn.idnests of his rage and hatred. This he
.has told himself.
CONCEALING THE BODY.
'ltihad been no part of the Judge’s
'plan to sacrifice himself while satiating
bis murderous spirit. Some time before
he had obtained zinc lining for a small
: tract iing ease, such as they transport on
l.mal-s, and he had had himsslf taught,
Ihotw to solder, providing bimseif with
Bolder, acid and a tool. Into this case the
i body of the unfortunate girl was forced,
.and the zinc cover was carefully soUlered
idown after filling the box up with lime.
A passage to Cara was tuki n for Guil
.hermino, and the case was to accompany
him, to he dropped into the sea during
the voyage.
INQUIRY.
Two or three days more and the bravo
would have left with his charge ; but
meantime the mothers and the familiars
of the girl had become alarmed at her
continued absence. To their inquiries
the Judge replied that he kn<-w not
where she was. The Pasport Office was
examined, but nothing showed she had
left the city. The police were communi
cated with’and after much hesitation
for Dcsenibargader is an awe-inspiring
rank and can be dealt with only by the
Supreme Court "the Chief of Police him
self, with a large force, surrounded the
house at midnight, on the ltith, and in
the morning proceeded to
A SEARCH OFTHEPREMISES.
As for the Judge himself they did not
dare to hinder going out to take, as he
said, a walk. The house was vainly ran
sacked ; but in the garden, just under
the house eaves, some signs of disturb
ance of the earth directed attention to a
spot. The cutlasses of the police soon
disinterred a case, and, on jobing a hole
into it, blood and fetor issued from it.
By medical examination the body of the
girl was found doubled up in it, the head
and one leg nearly severed from the
body
ARREST.
Four accomplices were at once arrested;
Dut, owing to the immunities of his rank,
the Judge could not be taken unless by
an order of the Supreme Court, and all
that could be done was to cause him to lie
accompanied by a police official of the
rank of Captain.
The necessary order, however, will go
on from Rio on the 10th to bring him
here for trial.
A country editor writing to a delin
quent subscriber requesting him to pay
up his back dues, concluded with : “If you
pay up, you will oblige me; if you won t
I’ll oblige you.”
A French writer has described a young
lady as a creature that ceases to kiss gen
tlemen at twelve, and begins again at

.4 Southern V Oman's Protest.
\ Editor Morning News :
| Dear Sir : I saw in your paper of Oc
. tober 14th, an account, copied from the
| New York Herald, of a woman’s Rights
! Congress having been held in that city,
; and among the names of those mentioned
|as having been present, .1 read that of
Mrs. Maria Jourdan Westmoreland, of
Atlanta, Georgia. This renegade daugh
ter of the South, whose "hungry heart,”
! it seems, has at last found food congenial
to its unhallowed cravings, has publicly
intimated, if not positively asserted, that
the germ of Woman’s Rights and i'ree
; loveism lies dormant in the hearts of
Southern women, and that if lecturers
(or leeturesses, rather) were sent to us
we would welcome them with joy, and
would soon organize societies of that sort
at the South. Now, sir, 1 think that ev
| cry true and virtuous woman in our lie
loved land should contradict this foul
slander, and clerk, as far as they can,
any attempt that may he made to iutro
i duee this hydraheaded monster, Woman’s
Rights, and its vile offspring, Freelove
! isju, into our hearts and homes. Mrs.
,W. also offers to give to lecturers who
j mav wish to come, letters of introdue
, tion to prominent Southern ladies. Shade
of Virtue protect us ! 1 ask, in the name
of truth, what Southern woman of true
refinement, moving in the genuine first
circles of society, would accept such a If t
: ter of introduction Y
1 blush with shame for the State of
my adoption when I seethe name of one
jof her daughters enrolled on the iufa
j inous list of “Uusexed Viragos,” as you
have most appropriately designated
i them. No ! never while the life-stream
bounds in our viens, mingled with the
j blood of Southern heroes; never while,
the intellectual galaxy of the South is
studded with such names as Augusta
Evans, Caroline Lee llentz and a host, of
|o: rs, whose influence for good has been
j felt throughout our sunny land; never
while the portraits of such men as Robert
j E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson hang over
I our mantles, will any true daugther of
the South unsex herself to become a by
word of contempt with all the good and
pure among us ! ’Tis true there may lie
a few women at: the South with “hungry
hearts” similar to Mrs Westmoreland s,
but, thank God, they are very few' in-1
: deed. Our hearts are hungry for the!
unsullied home love, the eudearingearess
i and approving smile of the companion
we hold nearest and dearest on earth, for
the r< sport and esteem of our friend* and
neighbors, for the blessings ot our ehil
id»»u as life's journey draws to a close,
and above all, tor that glorious recom
pense font on High : “Well done, thou
good and faithful servant, enter thou in
; to the joys of thy Lord.”

Sharp Practice.
A Washington letter to the New York
! Sun relates an incident connected with
the suspension of the First National Bank
! of the former city, which shows that a
banking house of the highest pretentious
at the Federal capital, enjoying the spe
cial patronage o. the administration, can
sometime* stoop to practices which are,
as discreditable as the tricks of a Peter
Funk auction shop or an old time wild j
i cat bank. A Staff officer of the army
: went to the First National Bank about |
noon on theday of its suspension, but be
fore any intimation bad boon given that
I it, was not perfectly sound, and deposited
about 85000. The money was counted,
received, and 1 he depositor congratulated
himself that his money was safely lodged
in the keeping of those renowned bank- I
! ers the Cookes, who by the extraordinary
I favor of several (idininistrntionH had,
amassed a fortune of many millions out
jof nothing. The officer went down the
stall ease, follow ed by the janitor, who
| immediately began to close the doors.
The officer asked why he did this, and;
the jan ; ter replied that, he was only obey- j
, ing orders Alarmed by this sign, he re
turned up stairs, demanded 1 is money, j
and was answered, “It is too late.” Jhe
Sun’s letter adds : “’! he lips of that, oi
fieer are sealed, but they may be op 'tied
by a Congressional investigation.”
A Father Shoots Himself on lljh
Son’s Grave. The New York Evening;
j Post of Wednesday says : Coroner Meeks
■ of Mount Vernon, was summoned to-day j
to hold an inquest at Woodlawn Ceme
tery, on trie body of John G. Hoffman, a j
native of Germany, aged fifty years, late
a resident of Morrisania, who committed
suicide Tuesday afternoon, on the grave.
; of his son, who was buried in the eeme-!
j tery in 1865.
Some laborers in the ground heard the'
reports of a pistol, and on proceeding to;
the spot from whence they came, found j
Mr Hoffman with a double-barreled pis
tol lying by his side. He had taken off
his coat and Avorsted jacket, and (lis
| charged both barrels into his left side.
The balls had passed through his heart.
Upon his person av»s found a note writ
ten in German, addressed to the Super
intendent of tire Cemetery. The follow
ing is a translation of its contents :
“Mr. Deerino —Mg Jtear Sir : I am
very sorry to give you some trouble. I
am glad to go where 1 shall rest, in peace.

would like to tie buried back of my son s

is all they can say.

TEACH THE LITTLE GIRLS,
j Teaching children, to work is about the
; hardest kind of work. Most mothers are
i unwilling to take the time and trouble
i necessary to teach their daughters the
'little womanly arts of sewing, knitting,
| crocheting and the simpler kind or em
broidery. It is left for someone else to
J take the trouble, if they are so fortunate
jas to secure a teacher. Often the little
i one looks on with longing eyes to the
' nimble lingers of a young companion
| Avho can fashion such beautiful things
| with the crochet needle and ball of bright
i wool. The common task of picking up
chips, Avashiug dishes and dusting rooms,
seeiu such mere drudgery in comparison.
S Some little variation of this sort would
greatly brighten the dull day.
We’huve too little patience in teaching
children. If they could learn all in one
■ lesson, we should be satisfied; but tiny
tire after a few moments practice, and
| wish to turn to something else. Tin y
| are sure to t ake up a stitch wrong after
i we have told them dozens of times, and
j so we lose our patience and the child
! quickly follows the example. Someone
j recommends, when we are vexed at chil-
I dren for dullness in doing their tasks,
for the teacher to sit down and write a
page with their left hand. Remember
that a child is all left hand when he be
| gins to t ain his muscles. We make too
I little allowance for his training of the
| muscles in ourselves, and fancy we always
i knew such simple things.
1 It is worth taking a great deal of time
to teach our daughters these little useful
arts. It. is part, of our life-training, and
a very important one of ours. The les
son in patience alone is worth more than
the time we spend. They are happier
for their ability, and soon grow skullul
by practice, and learn to turn their
knowledge to account. I know a little
girl of five who takes the greatest delight
in making little book marks on perfor
ated paper to give to herfriend*. It was
Ia task for her mother to teach her un
skilled fingers, but it Inis been a great
ble-sing to the child, simple as the lesson |
• was. Whatever helps to educate the
muscle in a right way, and train the
heart to loving, thoughtful consideration
of others, is worth more than gold to our
children. Country Gentleman.
lfow Daniel Drew Spells “Door."
The Chicago Post vouches for the fol
lowing story : A good story is told by a
friend of Daniel Drew, which the news
of his illness calls up. Remaining one
evening late in the office, :uid Inning oc
casion to use the safe, he permitted the
cashier to go home, remarkt hat he
would close the safe ami fix the combina
tion on the Avoi d “door.” But win n ( lie j
cashier undertook to open the safe in the |
morning he found the lock ret used to
yield to the magic "door.” He tried]
and tried again, without any success. j
Finally, happening to remember that |
Daniel’* early education had been neg
lected, he ittributed his ill luck to poor!
j orthography, lfe therefore tried tie
lock upon “dore.” Still no success; and
then upon “dear,” with no better for
tune. Finally, becoming disgusted, In
proceeded to the St. Nicholas, routed
"Dan'l” out of lbs choicest morning nap,
and as he stuck his nightcap out ol the
door tlx colloquy ensued :
“Mr. Drew, 1 can’t, open the safe on
‘door.’ You must have concluded to
change the word.” "Oban go the word!
Nothin’ o’ the kind. 1 shut it on ‘door.’” ]
“Are you sure, sir r” “Mure, sir, you j
turn'd ape; of eonrs • I’m sure ! Go back j
to your work, and don t come foolin ,
routi’ here this time o’ the morning.” j
“Well, perhaps, Mr. Drew, I can’t spell j
the word light. How del you spell it r ,
“Spell it! Any fool can spell door, j
D-o-a-r-e, doare, of course, sir. If you |
can’t spell door, sir, you’re no cashier for |
me. Pack up your duels and go out of !
the‘door.’,” And shutting the “door” I
in the cashier’s face Hamel returned to!
his bed in a passion, and the clerk to his j
safe. Armed with the open sesame ot j
“doare,” however, the safe flew open j
without futher trouble, and when Daniel j
arrived, mobfied by' a good breaklast, and
ljis morning prayer, he advised his cash- i
ier that he might keep Ins place provided ;
he would improve Ins time and “go tu
spellin’ skool in the evenin’.”
The Disobacefui. Goat. There is an *
old goat owned on Lewis street, whi'di i
has revived a great deal of train:ug from i
the boys. Last, Fourth of July flaw dis- j
covered that if they stuck a tiro eraek-T ]
in the end of a crate and held it at W'il- j
liam, he would lower his bead and go
for them, and they have practiced the
trick so much that the gent, will tackle
any human being who points a stick at
him. Yesterday noon he was loafing
near the corner of Third and Lewis streets, j
when a corpulent citizen came up and]
stopped to talk with a friend. They hap- j
peiicd to speak of sidewalks, when the ;
corpulent citizen pointed his cane just to i
the left of the goat and said ; “That’s ]
the worst peice of sidewalk in this town.
The goat had been eyeing the cane, and J
the moment it came up he lowered his ]
head, made six or eight jumps, and his,
head struck the corpulent citizen just on ;
the belt.” The man went over into a ;
mass of old tin, dilapidated butter kegs |
and abandoned hoop-skirts, and the old i
goat, turned a somersault the other way, ,
while,the slim citizenthrewstones at.a boy ;
seated on a door-step who was laughing ]
tears as big as chestnuts and crying out : ;

A Item iniseenee- - The Old Cherokee
Laud Quarrel.
Columbus, Ga., Oct. 24, 1873.
Editor Sun .-—The events which were
the occasion of their controversy between
President, Adams, of the United States,
and ex-Goveruor Troup, of Georgia, in
1831, may not he known to the young
; men of this day. With your consent I
will give a statement of the facts as an
I incident of history. This dispute canto
: near causing a conflict between the State
!of Georgia and the United States. W.
! 1L Crawford advised Governor Troup
j not to act precipitately, and that pre
vented what seemed inevitable, a war be
tween the State and the United States,
jT ho ease was as follows: There was a
] com pact bet ween the United States and
! Georgia, that if Georgia would relinquish
j her claim to the Territory situated be
i tween the Chattahooehie and thoMissis
j sippi rivers, the United States would ex-
I tiuguish the Indian title to the lauds
| within the chartered limits of Georgia,
j 'the United States had organized" Terri
torial Governments, and formed the
States of Mississippi and Alabama, and
realized much wealth from the sale of
said lands. The United States seemed
tardy in fulfilling the compact, andG-eor
gia, wanting the lands for settlement,
Governor Troup resolved to have the
lands of the Cherokee surveyed and take
possession, and the United States not,
having treated with the Cherokee “nation
for the same, President Adams iorbade
the Governor from such a course, upon
a penalty of war with the “United States
authority.
Eventually, when Georgiacame in pos
session, the State had the lands surveyed,
and passed an act to dispose of the same
by lottery, each citizen >r head of a fami
ly to be entitled to a chance in the draw
ing. The Legislature could not have de
vised a plan to result more injuriously to
the morality of the people. It was the
cause of fraud, legation and speculation,
and comparatively few really benefited
your correspondent was a sufferer, by
buying a lot of this land that was fraud
ulently drawn. Had these lands been
sold by the State, and the money judi
ciously invested, the interest would have
been sufficient to have supported free
schools throughout the State to the lat
est generation, and the State would have
funds for all the State needs. Georgia
has had three or four additions by pur
chases of Indian lands, and had the pro
ceeds been wisely managed she might at
this time have been one of the wealthiest,
States iu the Union. Zero.
A New Telegraph System.- It; is
now announced that the formation of a
new system or combination of telegraph
companies is about to be consummated.
A eompanv has been formed in England
j with a capital of lt>2,0D0,00(), for the pur
pose of laying a cable between the United
I States and England, the terminus on this
i side to be at, some point on Long Island.
| The directory includes prominent Eng
| Mali and American capitalists. A largo
portion of the cable is said to be already
i (instructed, and all the contracts, if not
already signed, soon will be. When laid
the cable will be connected with the wires
of the nut.malic Telegraph Company,
which are now in operation. These
wires will be extended along the Erie,
Baltimore and Ohio, and Pennsylvania
Railioad*. Indeed, it. is understood that
J. Edgar Thompson, President of the
Pennsylvania Railroad, has already given
orders’to extend the automatic wires.
The object of the railroad co-operation
in the enterprise is understood to be a
desire to thwait, any espionage of rival
railroad e nterprises over the particular |
! messages relating to their business. I
;V. Y. Tribune.
Conokfss to Build Houses for the
! Cabinet- -The States fob the Sena-1
tors. In conversation the other day the |
President, stated that there were three;
things he hoped to see at,least “innrugu- |
rated” before he retired from office. “In
the first place,” said ho, “I want the '
Government to erect suitable buildings j
for all its officers entitled to quarter.]
Wo are now paying for rented quarters j
about 8175,000 a year. This money and j
the interest on it would in a few yearn ]
make a sum sufficient to pay for the ]
buildings required.” The President ad
ded, that, besides, it was due to a great
Government like ours that it, should own
the buildings occupied by its officers for
the transaction of its business.
He hopes, too, to see a movement in
augurated by 'the several Stmes to
build residences for their Senator*. This
of course, would be followed by the erec
tion of fine, residences by members of the
House of Representatives who have large
fortunes and can afford it. These views
of the President, although entirely new
(that, about the residences for Senators
having been agitated several years ago),
cannot fail to make a favorable impress
ion, backed as they will be by his influ
ence. It is not improbable that, before
the expiration of his term the President
will call the attention of Congress to this
sub ject in one of his annual messages.
He continued ; “another thing I want
]to see inaugurated before I retire from
office, is the erection of suitable houses—
! private residences for the members of
the cabinet. They are expected to enter
tain a great deal, and must live in com
paratively good houses. If they have
not private fortunes, it requires nearly
ali their salary to pay rent, and they have
! little to live on.” The Presidents ilea
is that these houses should not only be
built but generally furnished by the gov
ernment. — Washington Letter.
