There Is a curious story about some native wInes which are extenslvely advertised nowa days, and have only recently been putt upon the market. Dr. U nderhill, the well-known grape-grower of Croton Point, dicd in 387r. Some of his heirs entertained temperance views of such extreme kind, that they wcre unwilling to allow the stock of wines then on hand to be sold or any more to be made. The grapes have sometimes been scat to market, and sometimes left to decay upon tho vines. It is only now that the other heirs have succeeded ini arranging for a settlement of the estate and the sale of the wines on hand. Among these is a wine of the vintage of z864, described as a "Sweet Union Port," but suggesting the Imperial Tokay more than any other European wine, and being wholly unlike any other wine of American growth. Its purity age and mellowness are remarkable, and bth hysicians and wine fanciers have a specia interest in it as the oldest native wine now accessible in any con iderable quantity. The whole stock Is in the hands of thue well-knowvn wholesale grocery house of the Thurbers,~NT. 1. Tribune, The above speaks for tsf,but we wvould add that this is the pure juice of the grape, has been ripened and mellowed by age, and for medicInal or sacramental purposes It Is unsurpassed. It can be obtained from most of the leading Druggists throughout the United States, and at wholesale from the undersigned, who will forward descriptive pamphlet, free of charge, on application.

DIRcovory of Now Proof Toidtng to 5ho.v the Innoc-nco ofr r'n M-)n D1n31 to Death on Circumnjtantial [ M"om the ew York Ieraild.] AI,ANT.1, GA., May 12, 1878. Some months ago the IIr<ld con. Stained ia rcmtnrk.tle story of the conviction of two men for muturder upon cir iustanti d evidence mid the 811)Clent discovery of now evidence which stayed the execution of the firat eoivicLion. An import ant discovery just mnade revives this story and shows how unrclitble the strongest of circtumstantial ovidenco mly be. About one ye-ir ago Mr. Rozier, a well-to-do nercihanlt of Sparta, G., was murdered while walking from lis store to his house. His body was5.discvereid by the town marshal, Grigs, and two mon naied L>vett and Barnos, who reported it to the f:mily of the doemised. The mur dered man had been struck with some heavy, blunt instrument that forced his skull in without breaking it. Sispicilol fell llpol the marshal and his colleagues, and a detoc:ive was sent for to work the case up. A sTRONO AIAY OF PROOF. The cireumstantial evidence ntgainst them wats very strong. Their stories did not fit each other, aml were proved by the facts to have been false in some particulars. For instance, they claimed that Uhey were in a sailoon when the door was pushed open and Mr. Rtozier, bleeding and staggering, s:owed himself and said that he had been murdered; that he then stag gered back to the place where ho was first :ittacked and there died. Time detective then showed that it would have been impossible for the wounded man to have walked this distance without staining the ground and the door with the blood which was then pouring from him. 'T'he friends of the accused then shuwed two spots of blood on the edge of the saloon, but the detec-. tive proved that they were left by a negro boy who had cut his foot with a piece of glass. In recount ing time articles found in Mr. Rozier's pockets his son was inter rpllted by Griggs, who said, "He also had some tobacco there." The boy denied that his father carried tobacco. Griggq, who had not sen the pockets emptied, incau tiusly insis;:od that he did have tob.Ceo. Upon invest:gation it was found that, contrary to his usual cus tom1, the deceased had started home with a piece of tobacco in his pocket. The question then arose as to how Griggs kmnew that Rozier had tobact'o 'in his pjocke.t With a hundred such slight links as this was the chain of circumstantial evi de-nco forged, and the unfortunate men were convicted and condemned. A witness wals ailso initroduiced who swore that he was sleeping -in the housei opposite which Rlozier wats scenfiling, the heavy blows aind the fall of the body. He then heard a sound as of dragging it away, accompa)Inied by groans, and was about to get up and go out, when ho plainly recognized Griggs' voice, and know~ing that ho was thme marshal supposed he was simnply dragging some (Irnnkeon fellow to the lock-up, and lhe woent back to bed. Hie was subsequently awakecn ed by thme return of the scuflers, the repetition of groans and curses and thme general alarm. He wvas an intelligent witness and was certain that he had recognized Griggs' voice. The case was very skilfully worked up by Mr. Monaghan (detective) and it seemed that ther-e was possible escape for the doomed men. The case was carried to the Supr-emo Court and the judgment of the court below was affirmed. ANOTHJER TH[EORY OF THlE CAsE. Just here some startling develop ments were made. Detective Mur phy received a letter from the wifeI of Griggs, the condemned man, who protestoed in the most pitiable terms against the conviction of her hus band. declaring that she know him to be innocent. Touched by her letter- Mr. Murphy 'determined to look into the exse, and wvent down to SpartAi for that pur en6sodHeoiyas apeediW.: saI4ae4 out against Griggs and his fellows, and ho went to work on another tack. He discovered that on the day of the murder a number of roughs, then bolonginc to Howe's London Circus, which was sum mering at Augusta, Ga., had boon in 8Spart:a al.l h1i:tl disappoIred dIIuring the ni_ ht. Ha becamto es"tis, lied from sevell sin ill circuinstn ces t+hat t,heso mon wore conn1ected in somo1e way with R )zier's murder. Th's suPpt).;i mi ox:i.tine'Lld what had hitherto booi inllic-IbJe-viz:, the na'ltire of the wo)ui..t by which Ilozier's ho:ac hd been crushed in withoutt the skin being brokon. A, aandb::g used about a circus tont was il)out the only weapon that would do such work as this, and thi3 ugly we q)on is frequently used by circus ftkirs, whose object is u:;ually to simply stun a nann, that they ml ty rob him11 and got away. A, blow delivoro-l too h1e.vily would crash the skull in. Murphy at once went to work on the circus, which was then travolling through Canada. He soon made out a case against two emnpioyos of the circus, through the story of a tent pitcher named Enright. This min said that. his two pals had gone up the road on the day of the murjer and had roturne.l the next day loaded down. with swag. They brought a pistol and watch, said Enright, which he do scribed so that they tallied exactly with the articles taken from Rozieraa body when he was killed. At Clevo" land, Ohio, Murphy arrested En.. right and todk him back to Georgia, waero lie mado his statement in a clear and convincing manner. His evidence was not suflicient, however, to clear the condemned men, altlhon h it effected a stay in the proceedings. Through the publica tion of Euright's confession the two circus men, then near Washington, escaped arrest. The two detectives, Monaghan and Murphy, have since been engaged with the case, Mona ghan insistirg that Griggs and his comradcs Ivero the guilty men, and Murphy insisting that the circus fakirs had clone the bloody work. The whole of Sparta is divided on the question and the problem was unsolved, and apparently unsolva ble, when suddenly new develop monts wore made. NEW EVIDENCE. Neither detective had boon able to got sight of the pistol and watch stolen from Mr. Rozier's body after the murder. Of course the dis covery of either of these articles, if they could be traced back, would settle the question of guilt. Con sequently descriptions of them have been frequently sent and the most searching inquiry made for them. At last the watch turns up and in a way that certainly seems to be "set tling." A negro named Alfred Cook, living in Albany, Ga., showed a watch to some one, who was aston ished at his having such a fine one. Upon investigation it was proved that he had bought the watch from a coup)le of tramps who wore going through the country towvard Ala bama. This purchase was made a few days after the date of tha Rlozier murder. It was sent to Sparta and identified as the watch that Rozier had worn at the time of his murder. The description of ' t,he tramps who sold Cookc tihe watch tallies nith the description of the two circus mon who wore accused of the killing. Mr. Murphy also prIoved that the last heard of the circus men after they left Angusta on their trip after thme murder was that they hdt,urnedl up in Mobile. They would have had to pass through Albany in making this trip. It is impossible to say what the effect gi this new and finexspected testimony wvill be, as it has not yet been generally made public. I send it to you in advance of its public uses, and will advise you of its effect. A~ more remarkable case than this has been, and promises to be, novo. went to a jury. A person who was lodking, at a house the other day, said he 99uldtn't afford to pay such rent. '.Nel1, look at the neighborhood," replie l the woman, "you can borrow fl46 irons next door, coffee and tea aeroes the street, flour and mugar opi th1e corner, and there's a big pile of wood belonging to the schoolhouse right across the alley." .Why is a dandy like a mushroomt Because he isi a regular sap-head, his ' waist is remarkably slender, his growth is exceedingly rapid, and his , top is uncommonly ,tender.
