Bontty Brothers Discharged.

The Portland Bee of last Friday civesthe following account of the trial of theJiontty brothers for counterfeiting:

tor itiaimfaeturinpconnterfe.it half dollars, ihas lieen attracting the attention of the U.S. district court lor the past dav or two. i

The, prosecution was conducted Ly Hon.Kutus Mallorv . U. S. attornev. and Hon.J. F. Caples appeared on behalf of the de- -icnse. me following gentlemen werechosen as jurors: (Sustaf Wilson. EewisLove, L. M. Dyer, John Kruse, H. Blnm- -aur, m. Cornell. W. w. Jaoues. Win.iatton, I. II. J rove. E. W. Swafford. R.

Bradley, and Jos. Delay. Tho tools andimplements found in their cabin, in Clackamas county, were seized at tho time oftne arrest ana were brought into ttie courtand presented as evidence against tfie parties, inev were to alt apt ea ranees intended for the prosecution of counterfeit-ing purposes, although they were excess-ively crude and imperfect. The defenseclaimed tho outfit was used in the manu-facture of pijws, and to prove their theory,introduced some of the iiies manufactured. Tho dies, however, wero exactlythe size of a half dollar piece, and the co-

incidence was ieculiar, to say the least.The milling machine was "also an exacteouuteroart of the coin as were also certainimpressions made on a lithographic stone.The chief witness test i tied positively thatho saw them manufacturing coin, but histestimony was materially weakened bythe introduction of several witnesses whotestified that his reputation for truth andveracity was not by any means what itshould" be. The prosecution brought for-ward eighteen witnesses, the mam factestablished leing that the outfit alludedto was found in their possession. The casewas given to the jury about 5 o'clock lastevening, and they remained out all uight.At 10 o'clock this morning they were call-ed in and reported that tuey were unableto agreo on a verdict. The ballot, we areinformed, stood seven for acquittal andlive for conviction. It appears that. whilelittle doubt remained in tneir minds as tothe intended use of the implements foundin the possession of the prisoners, a doubtdid exist in the minds of some as to theprobability of their ha ing yet been usedfor the purpose alleged in the indictment.Such being the facts and there being butlittle probabilitv of securing a jury thatwould convict the defendants, the districtattorney moved that a nolle proocoui beentered, which motion was allowed, andan order made discharging the prisoners.The ollicers congratulate themselves onhaving at least broken up the nest; for betheir intentions what Ihev nwv, the prob-abilities are that they will desist from thatwhich has tho appearance of evil in themind of an offended law.

Mrs. George GIthens, of Eagle Creek,concluded last .Monday to icave her liegelord and try her fortunes with one FrankWilliams. She said she was going to Limicounty to visit her son, and was taken tothe railroad depot for that purpose, butthere she met her paramour and took thetrain lor Portland. The husband, learningthat she had started for Portland, followedher, only to find that she had left, for East-ern Oregon with her companion. Mrs.(iithens has been slightly demented forsome time past, or at least pretended to lie,and Williams has waited on her, as shewould not take medicine fiom any otherperson. She left three young childrenand a kind and indulgent htisband. Wil-liams is about sixty years of g'', poor asJob's turkey, and a. a seam pas couldbe found in tin coiinfv, and it is safe tosay that the j;uiity pair will not have apleasant road to travel.

MARRIED.

At the residence of the bride's parents inNew Era, Sunday, March 31, IhTS, by Rev. J.Casto. Mr. Jos on Parrott and Miss Mary D.Jesse, all of New Era.

BOKX.

In ttiis county, March is, to the wife ofV. A. Lewis, a daughter.In this city, March 31, to the wife of R.

Morton, a boy. InIn this city, March 31, to tho wife of F. F.

White, a daughter. .

In this city, March 30th, 1S78, Inez M. Coch-ran, second daughter of Hiram and FanuieCochran, nyed 16 years aud 6 months.

Inez was a sweet, dear child, and greatlybeloved by all who knew her. She possessedmora than ordinary strength of intellect, asweet and sunny disposition, and a strict con-

scientiousness and dept h of religious feelingseldom found in ono so ytmng. She was bap-llze- d

when an Infant by the venerable Dr. M-ccarty in St. Luke's church, Vancouver, andwas tor several vcars a most faithful ond be-

loved pupil or yt. Paul's Sunday School, inthis citv. Her regular attendance, her welli.r, ivirit and reverent and devoutconduct when there, won for her tho highestpowm ami lovo of both teacher and pastor.Long and jrreatly will her sweet and smilingface oe missed from the church aud SundaySchool, to which she was so devotedly attach-ed. But while her teacher and fellow pupilsfeel sad and lonely at her loss, they cannotbut rejoice at. the thought that her pure spirithas ascended from the church on earth tothe church in heaven, there to bathe in thebright sunlight of God's jrlory, to sing Hispraises and to rejoice in His love, world with-out end.

The funeral services were conducted by therector, the Rev. John W. Sellwood, in theEpiscopal church, on Monday morning lust.The church was filled to overflowing with alarge number of mourning and sympathizingfriends. The Sundas- - School, of which Inezwas so long a member, turned out in a bodyand were seated around the chancel in thefront ot" t h church. Tliry walked oat in pro-cession to rho grave yard, carrying boquets ofllowers in their bands, which they threw intothe oncn grave when the words of committal,"Karth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust,"were pronounced. It was a most beaut itul,solemn and impressive sight to see thosechildren standing around the grave and tohear their voices joining devoutly In the Lord'spravcr.

The grave was bereft of much of its coldnessfor loving hands had been out all morningand tastefullv covered its walls with ever-greens and llowers. At the head of the gravetoo stood a large wreath of llowers. Withsuch loving preparations us these it seemedmore like laying Inez in a bower of beautythan in the cold, cold grave, to await theresurrection morn. It is needless to say thatthe heart-stricke- n parents and sisters havethe dcep'-s- t sympathy of this community,ilav the richest oi heaven's co'isolatious r--

upon t hem in i his their hour of trial."No bitterness for thee bo shed,

p.lossom of hcinu, Seen mid gone ;

With flowers alone we strew thy brd,O, blessed departed one!

Whos" all of life, it rosy way.l'.hished into dawn and passed away "
