(Here witness described body, and the manner in which it was dressed for interment, for the purpose of ideniifi. cation.) During spasms, convulsed from head to foot?limbs straight and rigid. The mother of Miss Pharr was also ex amined. She testified to the marriage ??neagement, and closed her evidence thus: 4* She told him she did not believe he intended to marry her, and that she was ruined, and that he was the cause of it. One sentence was, I trust you will never treat another lady as you hav? treated me Had several conversations with Dr. T.. once abont six weeks after her death. Told him 1 was sorrv he had not given iron at Chrutuias wher'l wish ed it done. He said her stomach w*s 'n such a condition, it would not do to give her iron now; replied that she had tt ker none until th^ first week in Sep e? ber. He said there wa* some irou in the assafce ida. Told h'm h<T stomach wag in no better con liiion when she did take iron than when she refused it. The pills sent on the 25th were sent unsolicited. 1 asked Dr. T. after Agnes' death if ne had sent for srychnine. He said he nad sent to Dr. Coleman for three grains. Asked him when He said two months previous to her death. Asked him what he got it for: he said for Mrs. Campbell's head, that she had goiten a fall. Dr. T. commenced the treatment of Agnes' case about the middle of January, 1853. She heard the rumors of strychnia about two w eeks af'er Agnes' death. Never seen any attack similar to the one she died. Her general health before her death, was as good as usual. Noticed her vomiting fW while in Appomattox, in Nr rem ber, 1853. The good spirits of Agues were caused by Dr. T. telling her that he was g'ing to Botetourt to make the arrange ment for their marriage. On the morniug of her death she asked me to cut her out some sewing. Agnes slept in my room, except when visitine ttbroad. She was at Mrs. Allen'* end Mrs. Payne s early i.* LV cmW. Had no suspicion of anything wron^r *i.: the post uiorteiu examination- Dr. V. and Agnts had private interviews, some times, in a room to themselves. He vis ited us often; there was no other person addressing my daughter?had no male associates. Agnes was a person of warm attachment. She was in her twentieth year. She had studied all the English branches, Latin, French, and Greek; was a person of good education. She saw the large pill the night before her death supposed she took it in the morning. Dr. T. was with Agnes while at Payne's. Dr. T. brought her home. Asked Mrs. and Mr. Pharr s assent to the marriage, in January, 1852. Agnes had ordered her marriage apparel from Lynchburgh they came to hand a day or two after death." The father of Miss Pharr has died sinca the death of his daughter, of anxiety and grief.

Apply at 372Bleeker street, in the fancy store. The above is taken from a late num ber of the New York Sun. "A girl of 12 or 14, to do the work of a small family, and take care of children This is con sidered work for two or three negroes in the South, and yet these Northerners, who have so much sympathy for our slaves, think nothing of it. Can there be a worse s'a very than that which compels a girl of 12 or 14 to do the work of a small family, and take care of children Hundreds of similar cases occur in the large cities of the East.

Loitery Pest.-?Most of our basin men, and even our clergymen, 00mplain of being constantly anooyad by circulars from lottery schemers of all kiixts, and hailing from all parts of the country, but particularly from Baltimore. Same gen tlemen, who are justly and prudently very much opposed to any connection w hatever with such swindling operations, have endeavored to get relieved from t^e ^anoyance by requesting the ostensible lottery firms no longer to take the liberty of sending them circulars. Instead how ever, of this being attended to. they have been assailed with insult worthy of the audacity of unprincipled gamblers. [Harruhurg Herald.
