iA case>recently happened: in’ the: town, of . . The(New York Mirror says that it is now be
to the numerous cases om xegord,, of the little
reliance to be placed.in eincumstantial evidence
of a,certain characters» j6% uf soy oy oT
. The. body, of a young woman was-found,in a
field near that town, under gicoumstances which
left no doubt that she.had been murdered.. The
face was so mutilated that the, features could
not be distinguished, At first. it;was supposed
to be the body of a Miss Sarah Bloom, and. was
identified as such by a sister of Miss Bloom, and
ty. other, witnesses, . Spapision, was, imped
ately fixed upon a man named William Jenkins
as.the murderer, and he was taken.into custody,
He was the person.last.scen with Miss Bloom,
and on being arrested he had such a guilty look
that every one set himy down ag the murderer.
_ The body of the mprdered woman was found
on Wednesday, and buried the Sunday, follow:
ing. In the meantime, the case,had been jinvestigated by a Coroner’s, jury, and the, public
excitement was comewhat appeased by the supposed recognition of the body, and efforts were
atonce set on foot to fix the crime of the murder oy Jenkins. But on Sunday afternoon, to
the astonishment’ of everybody; the original
Sarah Bloom appeared in Newburg, alive ‘si
well. She had hesrd of hey Gn death, andre:
paired to. the place to see about, it, The man
Jenkins was ‘at ‘once seb iat li p all cause ‘of
sispicion againet'him having been’ removed by
thé discoyery, that Miss Bloom was alive.)
» The question, then came up, how could: Miss
Bloom’s sister havevbeew so! deceived as to’ testify positively that "He "aeda body was that of
hor sister?,, The result of 4 comparison of marks
upon the bodies of the;two avomen; however;
settled the’ question,’ Phe ‘peculiar marks ‘on
the dead hody and those on ‘the body of Sarah
Bloom .were identical’ in form,, position and
number.. The body had a sear on the lefteeyeoc6°/ brow; Sarah Bloom had the same.) ‘The body
had a scar on the middle joint of the middle
finger of the left hand; Sarah, Bloom had) the
same. The two middle toes of the left foot of
the corpse were grown together, tiearly to the
first joint; a similar peculiarity was found to
exist in, Miss,Bloom. , The. toes of both feet in
the corpse abd in those ef Miss Bloom: were:
compressed, "a4 from wearing tight shoes.” A”
mark, as from & ting which had been roughly, .
drawn from the finger, was found on,thy;hand
of the murdered. woman; 'Mis Bloom wore a dor+
nelian ring on the corresponding finger, These
curious coincidences, very remarkable as far as
regards ihigag peculiarities, scem to justify
fhe couclusions which were arrived at. Miss
Sarah Bloom, however, was not murdered, but
was alive and quite amazed at the notoriety
she had gained, and Mr. William Jenkins, instead of being a tenant of a prison, was set at
liberty, free from all suspicion. ?
Up to May 5th, the day the California steamer
sailed from New York, no clue had been obtained as to the identity of, the murdered
woman, .

chose double-barrelled shot guns, at thirty paces. The weapons were procured at a shooting
gallery on Washington street, and the parties
went out altogether in an omnibus, At the
Mission they procured the attendance ofa somewhat noted sport, who, for the sake of seeing
the sport, agreed to act as surgeon. Arriving
on the ground, and while the secotids were loading the guns, one of the principals manifested
a disposition to piteh into the other With his!
fists, and was with difficulty restrained from forcing him into a rough and tumble fight. The
ground was marked off,, and the combatants
took their positions, eyeing,each other ina man. ner expressive of deep concern for somebody’s
well-being. The word was given: one, two,
three—fire! Bang! bang! went the shot guns;
but to the unspeakabie joy of both neither was;
hurt—one having fired too high and the other .
a renewal of his license to collect toll on the Bridge known .
too low. The result was entirely satisfactory, .

“ Deap Man’s Castux.’’-—Close to Utah Territory, ina northwest direction fromSacramento, says the Sacramento ‘Age, there is a curious
rock which the discoverers named “ Dead Mau’s
Castle.’’ Jt is several miles from any thorongh-,
fare, and stands on the verge of a deop, precipitious canon, which is still uninhabited, no gold.
having been discovered there to tempt. an invasion of the solitude. Four years ago, a party
of prospecters passed that he! and camped over
night near the rock, in a cavity of which they
found some crumbling bones, probably the remains of an animal, but which one of the men
insisted were human. They named it the “ Dead
Man’s Castle,”’ and building their camp-fire close
by, lit their pipes and told dismal and lugubrious ghost stories awhile, and then “ turned in,”’
with but little apprehension of disturbance from
the defunct lord of the castle. The rock is about
two hundred feet long. rises petpendicular to
the height of seventy or eighty feet, and at a
distance looks as though it might liave’been the
work of antique giants, who had set up turrets .
and dug out notches like windows. A stunted
cedar stands sentinel on top, but it is old, stormbeaten and drooping, and threatens to tumble
down. At the bottom there is a small grotto
some twenty feet in diameter, and extending up,
probably, nearly to the top of the rock, whence
descends aemall stream of water’, which has dug
out a little reservoir at the base. The voice of
the water is «weet and musical; it has been singing its monotonous song there for a thousand
years, — vas ¥9
