THE DAILY TIMES. norvro> roi *ty m pf.rior i oi rt. JAMES F. FRAZIER FOUND GUILTY OF MURDER. OTHER CASES TRIED. Special to the Time* by S. A A. Line.] Peuuy, Ga., May 28. The case against James F. Frazier, charged with the assassination of Dr. Joseph Benton Dunwoody, on the night of the 24th of December lust, was call ed ot 10 o’clock Tuesday morning. Tbo prisoner was formally arraigned, and the panel of forty-eight jurors called. The bailiff was sent to Fort Valley for every man to ho brought to court. The balance of the day was consumed in examining jurors as to their competency. It seemed as if about nine-tenths of the jurors called had formed opinions or prejudice in regard to the case. Seven jurors were obtaiued and sworn in, viz., B. F. Murray, T. J. Evans, 11. T. Rainey, A. 1,. Murray, F. S. King, J. T. Barfield aud J. E. Hayes. These wore confined in the court house all night in charge of a bailiff. Wednesday morning the other five jurors were obtained— Joo Barnes, Chas. Poland. F. M. Parker, W. H. Henderson and 1(. L. Bridges. In all, one hundred and j forty-four jurors were summoned, | and one hundred and twenty-eight j were examined. Before the jury was made up the evidence closed, at noon Thursday, and the ease was argued in the afternoon in a very able man ner by Mr. Giles Harris and General Warren on behalf of the State, and by Judge Holtzelaw, Mr. Harris of Macon, and Mr. E. Ryan of Hawkins vilie, on the part of the defendant. Thoevidence was circumstantial, and the jury considerably worn out by two days’sitting, and some of them three nights' confinement. It looks very much like cruelty to imprison innocent, jurors, but the Judge has no other alternative. Judge Hill's charge was concise and clear. The jury went in at twelve and a Half o’clock Thursday night, and agreed on a verdict yesterday morning and was discharged. The verdict was: “We, the jury, find the prisoner, James F. Fjuzier, guilty of murder and recommend him to the mercy of the Court.’’ We learn that tho pris oner’# counsel moved for anew trial; | the motion for anew trial jwus over ruled by Judge Hill and the case will go to the Supreme Court. The pris oner was sentenced to imprisonment in tho penitentiary during the term of his natural life. Anderson Kendrick and Andrew Carter plead guilty of burglary and were sentenced to five years each in the penitentiary. Court adjourned yesterday evening until Monday at 10 o’clock. Mrs. Campbell, wife of tho venera ble Baptist minister of this place, was severely stricken with paralysis on Monday last. She is dangerously ill. Hurilfr In Um* Nrrmirt llpsht. limbopton, N. J., May 28. The trial of Sovier Schwartz for the mur der of Abort, which has been in pro gress for several days, resulted last evening in a verdict of murder in the second degree. Schwartz and Abert came from Germany together this Spring. After their arrival in New York they started through New Jer sey, and in a woods near Millville Schwartz knocked Abort on the head killing him, and afterwards robbed him. The murder was committed on the 9th of April last. There is great excitement among the people of Bridgeton over the verdict. Tho gen eral feeling being in favor of a verdict in the first degree. 1 .

Special to tho Times by 8. A A. Line.] New York, May 28.—A special from Holyoke, Mass., gives tho latest do tatlsof the appalling church accident. Lust night, at 10 o’clock, thirty-six deail bodies were in MownU’s store, on Main street, twelve at the school house, and two at. another house. The work of recovering bodies from tho ruins progressed all night. At midnight fifty-one bodies mostly women and children—had been re covered. Tho pastor, Rev. A. B. Dufresue, es caped through a side door. The scenes in tho church were horrible past description. Tho corner of the gallery fell in and was found piled full of mangled, dismembered bodies. It is probable tho exact number of the lost will not be known for some days. It is stated about seventy-live persons perished. The following is a list of the killed, so fur as recognized : Mrs. Burgess, Justine Brishen, Miss Cocke, Rosalie Disjarden, Mrs. Disjarden and four children, Seline and May Doueetteo, Frances Derey, Mrs. Lnfrace, Mrs. Litvin, Mrs. Morin, Isaiah Morireo, Mordio Tobeann, Mr. Merrill, Etta Munier, Alzeno Newton, I’hascal Pa quette and child, and Mr. Roberts. A list of forty Injured is also pub lished, which includes Mr. Muilin, Ciiief of tho Fire Department, and Calesta Dufresne, brother of the pas tor. Six of the injured are dying. Nelly Lapierre and her mother, ami a child named Bridge, are missing ami supposed to be in tho ruins. A majority of tho dead are still un identified. Springfield, Mass., May 28. Im mediately on the flames breaking out all those in the galleries rushed to the i iist door and crowded each other so that they fell upon one another and choked up the door way witti bodies, i>iled all ways, seven or eight deep, and here most of those were lost from this mass. Chief Mullen rescued one young woman after hav ing removed two dead bodies from above her. It was almost im possible to face tho tlames, and Chief Mullen and others had j their clothes almost burned from them and badly burned themselves. Of course tlie most intense excite ment lias prevailed in the streets op posite the church and at the various points to which tho burned were car ried. Wild efforts were made by people half crazed to rush poll inell into the burning building to the res cue of their friends, and they wore re strained'with difficulty; this was par ticularly the case with parents who had on the first impulse rushed from the church to save their own lives, but suddenly remembered they had left their children behind.

Entirely rewrittou by the ablest writer* or every subject. Printed from new type, and illus trated with Several Thousand Engravings and Maps. The work originally published under the title of The New American Cyclopedia was com pleted in 1863, since which time tho wide circula tion which it has attained iu all parts of the United States, and the signal developments which have taken place iu every branch of scienco, lit erature and art, have Induced the editors and publishers to submit it to un exact and thorough revision, aud to issue a now edition eutitled The American Oycloimcdia. Within the last ten years tho progress dis covery iu every department ot knowledge has made u new work oi reference an imperative want. The movement of political affairs has kept pace with the discoveries of science, and their fruitful application to the industrial and useful arts aud the convenience and refinement of aoeial life. Great wars aud consequent revolutions have oc curred, involving national changes of peculiar moment. The civil war of our own country, which was at its height when the last volume ot the old work appeared, has happily been ended, and anew course of commercial and industrial activity has been commenced. Large accessions to our geographical knowl edge have been made by the indefatigable ex plorers of Africa. The great political revolutions of the last de- j cade, with the natural result oi the lapse ol time, have brought into public view a multitude ol new nion, whose names are in every one’s mouth, and of whose lives every one is curious to know the particulars. Great battles have been fought and important sieges maintained, of w’hich tho de- l tuilH are as yet preserved only iu the newspapers or in the transient publications of the day, but : which ought now to take their place in perma nent and authentic history. Iu preparing the present edition f<r the press, it has accordingly been the aim ui the editors to bring down the information to the latest possi ble dates, and to furnish au accurate account of the most recent discoveries iu science, of every fresh production in literature, and of the newest inventions in the practical arts, as well as to give a succinct and original record of tho progress of political and historical events. The work has been begun after long and care ful preliminary labor, and with tho most ample resources for carrying it on to a successful term ination. None of tho original stereotype plates have been used, but every page has been print' and on now type, forming iu fact anew Cyclopedia, with tho same plan and compass as its predecessor, but with a far greater pecuniary expenditure, and with such improvements in its composition us have been suggested by longer experience and eularged knowledge. The illustrations which aro introduced for the first time in the present edition have been added not for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give greater lucidity and force to the explanations in tlio text. They embrace all branches of science and of natural history, and depict tho most famous and remarkable features of scenery, architecture and urt, as well aH tho various pro cesses of mechanics and manufactures. Although intended for instruction rather than umbclishment, no pains spared to in sure their artistic excellence; the cost of their execution is enormous, aud it is believed they will find a welcome reception as an admirable feature of tho Cyclopedia, and worthy of its high character. This work is sold to Subscribers only, payable on delivery of each volume. It will be completed in sixteen largo octavo volumes, each containing about BUO pages, fully illustrated with several thousand Wood Engravings, and with numerous colored Lithographic Maps.
