Trial of Thornton for the Harder of Char less Its Close Verdict of Guilty This case was terminated yesterday in the Criminal Court, Our readers will re member the shook it created upon the pub lic mind, when, from mouth to mouth, the morcent after the occurrence had takes place, it was announced that Joseph Char- less, one of our oldest and most esteemed 1 citizens, had fallen by the hand of violence. It ran like a thrill through the heart of the whole community, and its pulsation were manifest in the gathering together of indig nant and excited citizens who would have executed summary vengeance upon the man who had thus recklessly assassinated a well known end inoffensive citizen. It is not our purpose now to refer to the history of that period, A few mouths only have pass ed atid the recollections are fresh to the memory of every one; the wild passion of the hour, born lit the moment and truly baptised in bload, passed away, and the majesty of the law has been vindicated in 5 I the verdict of the jury yesterday, which .. -13 1 found Thornton guilty of murder and noth 5!

So fari then, when we take 23 B retrospect of the past, it is well that the ...12 turbulent passions of an outraged commu 13: nity subsided as they did, for, while our 5 1 city has not suffered by epy act which at- 3 laehp tfl KOnnpA nf miKItf.

' ..-.w , regard ol law, the law itself nits been vin dicated, and that, too in a calm manner, without excitement, before one or the judic ial tribunals of the country, the ends of jus tice have been met, in the conviction of the accused, and the execution of the judgment of the law is sure to follow. We have given the proceedings of the Court as they tjanspirtd during the two first days of the trial. The proceedings yesterday were altogether unimportant. It is enough to say that the Counsel for . the defense, Mr. W. H. Lackland and Col Da- vis, who were called suddenly into the case Submarine Boat. The London News gives the following account of a submarine boat: "Phillips has, while in his boat and un der the water by means of machinery work ing through itf sides awed off timber four teen inches square. He can sink his boat from the surface almost instantly either to few inches or feel from the surface of the water or to a hundred or more feet and again rise quickly or very slowly to or near the surface; go forward, back or sideways' or come up bows first or otherwise, as may be required. He can attach powder torpe eoes to the outside of his boat on iti deck or sides, and proceed under water out to sea in any weather, to an enemy's ship in sight fix or anchor the torpedoes under the ship's bottom, set in motion clock-work to fire the torpedoes, simultaneously at intervals, and retire, still under water, out of danger from the explosion, and out of reach of an ene my's guns. He can also convey powder torpedoes inside his boat, of 100 fi (or more) weight end when under an enemy's ship, pass them out of the side of his boat through his paten hatch, and fasten them to aship's bottom and fire them as above nam ed. He can enter an enemy's harbor under water ocd mcke surveys, only showing a bove the surface light tube, no more than one half inch . in diameter, and retire still under water, and proceed outside to sea and make his repoit to the commander of a fleet er ship. He can go out to sea, meet a hostile fleet go under their bottoms, fix torpedoes to go off by block work, or bore holes in'thcir bottoms aud come away un seen.

On the 27th ultimo, the steamship Moses Taylor arrived here from Aspinwall, with $2,126,000 in gold on board from Califor nia. Yesterday, telegraphic advices re ceived by wcy of Tehauutepeo announced that the Sunora and Cortes ere on their way to Panama with $2,132,000 on board, which will be due here on the 12th inst. This golden tide is pouring in upon us at the rate of four millions and a quarter a month, to which must be added the current of silver that has already began to flow from Northern Mexico. In the same pe riod of time above referred to we have re ceived nearly a million and a quarter of silver by way of New Orleans. When Arizonia shall have a poiton the Gulf of California, the silver tide will swell to equal that of gold from California.

The Recovered Children. Mr. Wm. C. Mitchell, from Marion county, Arkansas, passed through here on bis return home, a lew days ago, having inz choree 15 of the chilrden rasued from the Mormons who csptured them at the time their parents ware inhumanly murder ed at the Mountain Me?dow Massacre, in Utah. There were 5 boys and 10 girls, named as follows: Dunlap, 5 girls; Bar ker, 3 girls; Fancher, boy and girl; Jones. and boy; Huff, one girl, lackett, '1 boys; Miller, boy and girl, luey are all from Carroll and adjoihing'counties, Arkansas, and most of them near relatives of Mr. Mitchell whoset.wo sons were killed in this brutish outslaught. One of the little girls received a shot in her arm, which has ren dered it useless. Two other boys of this parly are detained in Utah, as witness in the case of Forney. Mr. Mitchell obtained the children at Fort Larimie, whither they were brought by majors Whiting and Jarvis. Vengeance cries to Heaven to redress these wrongs; for "whosoever sheddeth man's blood, bjr man shall be shed." Oseola Democrat, 10th. jury that there is no evidence of lawful provocation in the case, which can effect the quality of the act of homicide. "By "premeditated" is meant thought of before-batid, any length of time, however short; and by ''malicious," is meant that quality of aot which indicates a heart re gardless of sooial duty, and fatally bent on mischief. II the jury believe, from the evidence, that that the defendant, in St. Louis county, and previous to the finding of this indict ment, did wilfully, deliberately, premedilalely and maliciously shoot and kill Joseph Char less, us charged in the indictment, you will find him guilty of murder in the first degree. If you find the defendant guilty of mur- tiveiight-ond stand upon the secure bore or make fast chains or ropes to any point of wreck, any, if required, one or more per sons can, while under water, go out of the boat through the side hatches, enter a wreok or do other service, and return inside the boat again, without inconvenience." Fob toukg men to think or. In the latest of his preachings upon "Popular Proverbs," Dr. Holland oloses a thought ful and suggestive discourse on' sensual pleasure, with the following earnest rs markj to young men, which deserve to be thought of: "Ul: u tiiis world couia rise out ot itits swamp of sensuality, rank with weeds and drunk withdeadly vafo'rs full of vipers thick with pitfalls, and lurid with decep- der iu the first degree, you will simply so state in your verdict. The law presumes every man sane and in the enjoyment and exercise of the ordi nary reasoning faculties and intellect, un til the contrary is established." With these instructions, the jury retired and in about half an hour returned with a verdict of "murder in the first degree." The prisoner exhibited no particular emo tion on the rendition of this verdict. His demeanor and appearance were marked by the same imperturbable manner that has characterized him not Iony during the whole trial, but ever since the commission of the dreadful act. There were no manifestations of applause in the crowd, and, we might say to seme extent, excited, auditory, but it seemed as if relief was given by the ver dict, and men tnrned their steps from the Court House, convinced" that, however it may have failed in other cases, to this ex tent, at least; justice had been satisfied. Nothing now remains to be done but. to pronounce the death penalty, which the Court will do, it is presumed, in a reasona ble time. BtXABXABLB LoKCEVlTY.

' heights of virtue, where God's sun shines, and the winds of heaven breathe blandly and healthfully, how would human life be come blessed and beautiful. The great burden of the world rolled off, how would it sprint; forward with a Brand career of prosperity and progress! This change for this country, rests almost entirely en the young men of the country. It lies with them more than any other class, and more than all other classes, to say whether this country shall descend still lower in its path of brutality, or rise higher than the stand ard of its loftiest dreams. The devotees of sense, themselves, have greatly lost their power for good, and comparatively few will change their course of life. Women will be pure if man will be true. Young men! mis great result abioes witn you! If you could but see how beautiful a flower grows upen the thorny stock of self-denial, you would give the plant the honor it deserves. If it seems hard and homely, dispise it not; for in it sleeps the beauty of heaven nnj the breath of angels. If you do not witness the glory of its blossoming during the day of life, its petal will open when the night of death eome and gladden your closing ! eyes with their marvelous lovliness, ond fill your soul with thei grateful perfume."
