Coroner Care was yesterday morning called upon to hold an inquest on the body of a man named George Kls, who wm found at the foot of a flight of stairs leading from the sidewalk to the area under the building, on Third-street, occupied by Adams's Express Company. ' The evidence taken before the jury failed to throw any light direotly upon the death of Mr. K., but the circumstances led them to conclude that it was accidental. Althongh a man of exceedingly temperate habits, he had dined with some friends on Monday, and be came partially inebriated, and some time during the evening, it is thought, in passing down-the stairs, fell, and , alighting upon his head, caused the fracture of the spinal column whioh produced his death. ' - One cf the porters about the establishment stumbled over the body about ten o'olook, but supposing, in the dark, that it was a deer, whioh are often placed there, paid no atten tion to It, nntil yesterday morning, when the body was discovered. Ibis is tie only cir cumstance from whioh they were able to judge ef tbe time of the accident, which must have occurred early in the evening. - The deceased was about thirty-five years of age, and haa a wife and two ehildren residing IngSteubenvllle, in this State. He had been for a considerable length of time connected with Adams's Express Company as a messen ger, and waa highly esteemed by all who knew him. SlNTSNCS OP DlATR PaBSIO UFO J AMIS Bdrns. James Burns was taken Into the Court room yesterday fcrthe purpose of receiving his' sentence, having been for tbe second time found guilty of murder. Jndge Mallon, over ruled the motion for a new trial, stating that although It would have been more satisfactory to the Court if the grade of homicide bad been made more dear, still the prisoner had been oonvioted by two juries, and he was satisfied that the verdict was a righteous one. . When asked what he had to say why sen tence cf death should not be passed upon him, the prisoner said that he did not commit the murder. The Court then scntenoed Burns to be imprisoned in the Jail of Hamilton County until Friday, the 10th day ef March next, and pon that day, between the hours of 10 and 2, to be taken to the place of execution and hang by the neck until dead. The prisoner heard the sentence without any emotion, and his face was wholly expression less when it was pronounced. He was evi dently prepared for and received it with an indlfferenoe that seemed almost stoical. - No. 10 East Foubtb-btbibt. J.
