END OF A CELEBRATED CASE. Young Nutt Acquitted of tho Murdor of Diktft PITTSDUBO, PA., January 22.-Tho trial of Jaues Nutt for tho murdAr of N. L. Dukes, which began on tho 14th instant, closed thia morning, tho jury rendering H verdict cf set guilty. Tho circumstances which led to tho shooting of Dukes are aa follows : Nich olas Lyman Dukes, who was 33 years old when be ww killed in June last, was a resident of Uniontown, a villano iu Western Pennsylvania, lie wars a grad uata of Princeton College, of the class of 1878, was a practicing lawyer, and in November, 1832, was elected to the Stute Legislature. At that limo ho was en gaged to bo married to Miss Lizzie Null, a handsome young Indy, the daughter of Captain Adam C. Nutt. Captain Nutt was 42 years old. Ile had served during the war as a private and as captain, waa subsequently admitted to the bar, and later became cashier of tito National Bank of Fayette County. In 1881 ho resigned that position to accept tho oilice of cashier of tho State Treasury. lie resided in tho suburbs of Uniontown with his wifo, his daughter Lizzie, Iiis son James Nutt, who had not re.":bed hi? twenty-first year, and -av?rai yotuij?or children. On December 4, 1882, Dukes wrote to Captain Nutt a lotter, in which he ac cused Miss Nutt of tho most serious im proprieties, stated that be himself had been intimate with her, and concluded by dec-lining to marry her on account of what he termed her notoriously bad character. In reply to this Captain Nutt wrote a letter statiDg that he would de fend-his daughter's character with his life if necessary, and threatening Dukes with punishment if be did not marry ber. Shortly beforo 51 o'clock os tho morn ing of 8unday, December 21, 1882, Cap tain Nutt neut bis nephew, Clark Breck enridge, his successor as cashier of tho National Bank of Fayette County, to the room of Dukes, in the Jenuiog? House at Uniontown, to tell him that ho (Capt. Nutt) wished to speak to him. The message had hardly been delivered when Captain Natt, who bad followed bia nephew, pushed his way into Dukes'a room and shut the door, leaving Breck enridge in the corridor without. A scuffle took placo, erie? of "murder" were heard and Mr. Breckenridge, a porter and the son of tho proprietor of the hotel rushed into the room to lind tho two men struggling. They were separated, Dukes being pushed into a corner and Captain Nutt, who was physically the weaker of the two, being lcd to the mantel piece, against which he leaned, panting from exhaustion. As tho two men stood in these respective positions, Dukes drew a revolver and scut a buiict into Captain Nutt's brain. Captain Nutt fell dead. It was claimed by Dukes that at tho time he fired Captain Nutt was in tho act of drawing a revolver from bia pocket. Dukes surrendered himself and was ad mitted to bail in $12,000. Dis trial began March 10, 1883, and ended March 14 in his acquittal. Judge Wilson, who presided, expressed from the bench his dissatisfaction with the verdict, The community was indignant at the verdict, and Dukes and the members of tho jury were burned in effigy. Nearly all tho members of the bar in Fayotte County signed a petition for tho disbarment of Dukin, and tho feei*u& isgaiaat him was so strong that he resigned the aoat in thc Legislature to which he had been elected. On the eveniug of June 18, 1833, Dukes was on his way to tho poatoffice In Uniontown, when James Nutt, tho son of the mau he bad killed, fired two shots at him from the doorway of an unoccu pied store. Dukes ran towards tho post office with young. Nutt following, and three more shots wero fired. On the steps of the poatoffice Dukes fell dead. One bullet had passed through his heart, two more bad entered ais body within an inch of the heart anr. a fourth bullet had grazed his ankle. Young Nutt was im mediately arrested. As early as 7 o'clock this morning all the entrances to tho Court House were besieged by crowds. Tho doors opened at 9 o'clock and crowds of people were wedged Into the narrow passageway and moved np stairs and soon filled the Court Room. Promptly at 9.30 Judge tJtowe ordered the Court opened and the prit, oner was escorted to his seat in rear of his counsel. He wai? carefully dressed, but his face gave evidence of the mental strain to which be had beon subjected. He had slept very little last night. At 9.67 the ju.y filed in, and as they seated themselves the silence that prevailed was oppressive. After asawerisg to their names the Judge ?aid : "Gentlemen ol the jury, have you decided upon a ver dict ?" They replied, "We ha, o." The Judge then said: "Prisoner at '.ho bar, standup." Nutt, who was /(ry weak and much affected, attempt > *.o rise to bis feet, but had to bo assist? i by one of the Court ofiicero. "Gentlemen, what is your verdict t" asked the Court, to which the foreman replied : "Not guilty on ac count of insanity at tho ii mu tue set was committed." lite crowd, which Lad been restrained, then gave vent to ita approval io a loud cheer, which the immense crowd on tho outside took op from those inddo. Order was restored, and the Judge sent Nutt to jail until to-morrow wheo, io accordance - with ihe motion . of hts counsel, a com mittee will ?umina hla as to his present mental condition. Nutt was taken back to bia cell. Mrs. Nutt and Miss Lizzie were not present. The jury. V7CT0 out tea hours. After their discharge au effort was made to In. . tcrviow them, hut they positively de clincdjto give any information as to how they stood up lo thc limo of tho final ballot, ss they had sworn not to divulge the secrets of the jury room. It ?3 ascer tained, however, that four ballots were - taken du ring the night, and that the con clusion waa oot reached until 7 o'clock 4hia morning. When the first ballot was taken tbreo jurors favored a verdict of guilty ea iodictcd,. thrco plain "oot guilty'? and-tho ethers not guilty because > insane. Tho verdict meets with approval on ell sides/ and n special from Union? town'says it wita wei ved there with great rejoicing. Congratulatory dispatches aro pouring in on tho Nutt family and tho counsel for tho defenco from all parts of the country. JamcH Nutt will not re turn to Uniontown. PITTSBURG, January 2.3.-The hearing as to James Nutt'? present mental con dition took place this morning beforo Judge Stowe and respited in tho prison er's release. Doctors Wylie, Huronoud, Beatty and Christy wero examined and all agreed that at the present time Nutt min o' sound n::n'i snd full* rrsnonsible, and thought that it would bo perfectly .afc to restore him to liberty. He was then discharged, and after receiving the congratulations of thoso present repaired to Major IJrown's office, whero his mother, sister and other relatives had gathered to receive him. On the way ho was tendered a porfect ovation. Hun dreds of people followed in front of and behind him. Old mon patted him on the back. Women crowded around him, and children pushed aud shoved to get a look ul the hoy made famous by the great trial. Tho scene in Major Brown's office was very affecting. Nutt'? mother und aifetcr wept bitterly as they threw their arms around him and the joy they ex pressed seemed tu kuow no bounds. A number of jurors who sat in judgment on Nutt wero admitted and shook his hands warmly, one remarkiug: "Jimmy, if they do anything to you iu Fayctto ?end them down and wo will seo to them." By this time the crowd on the outside was BO large that il was found necessary to call officers to clear tho streets. Tho family was then drivon to Msjor Brown's houso for dinner, and this afternoon at -1 o'clock all will returu to iheir home ut Unioutown, whero James will bo tender ed a reception. It was tho intention at li rat to send the young man to his uncle's near Brownsville for a few days ; but tho plans have been changed, and he will go homo with his mother. A special to tho Voil from Unioutown says: James Nutt was mot at tho depot by a crowd of 300 persons, aod was wild ly cheered. Ele wa? at once drivon homo, whero ho intends remaining qui etly.

The young man gre; 9 middle age and in time old age cam? pon Inn.. His life had been a succesi o far as to the sccumllatlon of wealtl nd of confort and luxuries.

One pleasant evening, sitting at hi ase'and comfort in his elegant home rith a little grandson playing about hie ie heard a ring at the door bell. To ld and stiff to go td the door, he caita he visitor to come in. 1 In eteppci Jeatb. "What!" exclaimed' the old! mat 'come so soon." "Yea," answered Death, who, ey cir. is .old acquaintance, added : "I hat one (or you, no I promised." "Promised 1" said the old man. ''Ye; qa promised to warn mo beforehand b sliding mo three messengers before yo ourself would come in person and sro not eeco one of them." "I Bent them," said Death, "and i >U did Lot heed them it WAR not nv alt." ? "When did you send your messengers, for I have not thc faintest recolcclion of their coming !" rejoined the old man. "I sent them," answered Death ; "ami if they caiiio quietly and gently, remind ed you in loots and touches, you should have heeded the:"- silent bul expressive admonitions." "Explain yourself," Haid the old man, "for I do not understand. You talk in riddles or fables." "Easily enough done," ?aid Death. "When I first came you were a young mau; your hair was black as a raven's wing-now it is grey, and your locks are thinned by age. That was my first mes senger.

I warned you beforo but you heeded not ; you mutt now go, prepared or unpre pared, and the consequences be upon your own immortal soul. Come!" and laying hit cold baud upon tho old man, bis soul departed.-Sunny South. The Dogs* Dressmaker. A visitor lo the elablishmeut of Ma dame Ledoublo, the famous dog modisto in the I'aluiB Royal, nays Ihut all day long a series of pugs and tmooth haired terriers arrive at her Halous to try on their garments and have their palclota fitted. As they have occasionally, like their owners, to await their turns, small mats aud rugs aro scattered over tho waxed floors, so that tho little dogs may be com fortable while anticipating thoirinterview with their modiste. They have sovc x\ changes of dress in their wardrobe, which they wear according to tho hour or tho temperature of the day. When they lake their morning walk in the Dois with their mistress the "cor rect thing" is a paletot of durk bli".' cloth, warmly lined with rel flannel, and a military gorget coming high up under tho leather collar, which is hung with bolls. The monogram of tho dog's mis-' trot? it no longer embroidered oo ono coiner of the paletot. That is out of dato-uud why should a little dog be out of the fashion ? .^o mortifying, you know, when it sees other doggiet carrying their monograms in tho middle of thc back, thc "correct" place. To complete this morning toilet a bunch of violets it fast ened on the left shoulder. On mild days the little creatures havo "Excelsior" paletots io dark green cloth, lined with bright yello.7 silk and em broidered iu silk of the color of the lining. The monogram is worked in similar silk. Thc collar is black velvet, with gilt bells pendant from it. On vory cold daye the paletot ia BOHI ikiu, with handsome buttons, and the pampered little things wear fur collars mounted in silver. For traveling a tar tan paletot is de rigueur, with harness of red leather, having detachable reins. fond?n Truth. Tobacco and the Voice. While tobacco is now well known to injure the system in every possible way, ind to an extort not generally apprecia ted, the voice is affected moro thnn may be suppotod. lt may uot be of much uso to warn the enslaved victim of tobacco to give it up, having, aa a general princi ple, lost much decision of character by its degrading influence ; but il may be well to warn tho young, who may be will ing to receive advice from older persons. The effect on the voice may be a little, nore apparent than upon certain other srgans. On tbis point there it the best medical authority in decided coudomua tion. Dr. Allen says : "Tobacco injures the voice, of which any oue eau be con vinced by observing tho harsh, thick, tiutky, mumbling, and insonoroua voice jf the confirmed tobacco user." Prof. ?luejo aays : "The habitual uie of tobacco in any of ita forms prodoces a harsh, iqueakiog condition of the voice." Dr. Woodward, well known iu connection nrith the Massachusetts Lunatic Asylum, s even more direct in his opposition to ho use of tho poison, declaring that 'every cate of bronchitis and loss of voice s cither directly caused or aggravated by he habitual use of tobacco." The testi nony of such men, of great attainments n medical science-men of experience ind observation-is entitled to considers ion.- GoIden Rule. - A Montana postmaster, who ar angea the maila for the little town of Jirnery, livue eighty miles from a Nota y Public When he sent in the first [uarterly report he administered the oath o himself and then certified to the cor ectoeas of the account.
