The Portland Bee of last Friday cives the following account of the trial of the Jiontty brothers for counterfeiting: The ease of John and Joseph Rontty, ointly indicted bv the U. S. trrand iurv tor itiaimfaeturinpconnterfe.it half dollars, has lieen attracting the attention of the U. S. district court lor the past dav or two. uninci ciniri lor me past tiav or two. 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 were chosen as jurors: (Sustaf Wilson. Eewis Love, 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 and implements found in their cabin, in Clack amas county, were seized at tho time of tne arrest ana were brought into ttie court and presented as evidence against tfie par ties, inev were to alt apt ea ranees in tended for the prosecution of counterfeit ing purposes, although they were excess ively crude and imperfect. The defense claimed tho outfit was used in the manu facture of pijws, and to prove their theory, introduced some of the iiies manufac tured. Tho dies, however, wero exactly the size of a half dollar piece, and the co incidence was ieculiar, to say the least. The milling machine was "also an exact eouuteroart of the coin as were also certain impressions made on a lithographic stone. The chief witness test i tied positively that ho saw them manufacturing coin, but his testimony was materially weakened by the introduction of several witnesses who testified that his reputation for truth and veracity was not by any means what it should" be. The prosecution brought for ward eighteen witnesses, the mam fact established leing that the outfit alluded to was found in their possession. The case was given to the jury about 5 o'clock last evening, and they remained out all uight. At 10 o'clock this morning they were call ed in and reported that tuey were unable to agreo on a verdict. The ballot, we are informed, stood seven for acquittal and live for conviction. It appears that. while little doubt remained in tneir minds as to the intended use of the implements found in the possession of the prisoners, a doubt did exist in the minds of some as to the probability of their ha ing yet been used for the purpose alleged in the indictment. Such being the facts and there being but little probabilitv of securing a jury that would convict the defendants, the district attorney moved that a nolle proocoui be entered, which motion was allowed, and an order made discharging the prisoners. The ollicers congratulate themselves on having at least broken up the nest; for be their intentions what Ihev nwv, the prob abilities are that they will desist from that which has tho appearance of evil in the mind of an offended law.

She said she was going to Limi county to visit her son, and was taken to the railroad depot for that purpose, but there she met her paramour and took the train lor Portland. The husband, learning that she had started for Portland, followed her, only to find that she had left, for East ern Oregon with her companion. Mrs. (iithens has been slightly demented for some time past, or at least pretended to lie, and Williams has waited on her, as she would not take medicine fiom any other person. She left three young children and a kind and indulgent htisband. Wil liams is about sixty years of g'', poor as Job's turkey, and a. la.y a seam pas could be found in tin coiinfv, and it is safe to say that the j;uiity pair will not have a pleasant road to travel.

Casto. Mr. Jos on Parrott and Miss Mary D. Jesse, all of New Era. BOKX. In ttiis county, March is, to the wife of V. A. Lewis, a daughter. In this city, March 31, to the wife of R. Morton, a boy. In 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 Fanuie Cochran, nyed 16 years aud 6 months. Inez was a sweet, dear child, and greatly beloved by all who knew her. She possessed mora than ordinary strength of intellect, a sweet and sunny disposition, and a strict con scientiousness and dept h of religious feeling seldom found in ono so ytmng. She was bap llzed when an Infant by the venerable Dr. Mc carty in St. Luke's church, Vancouver, and was tor several vcars a most faithful ond be loved pupil or yt. Paul's Sunday School, in this citv. Her regular attendance, her well i.r, ivirit 1,-ssons and reverent and devout conduct when there, won for her tho highest powm ami lovo of both teacher and pastor. ' Long and jrreatly will her sweet and smiling face oe missed from the church aud Sunday School, to which she was so devotedly attach ed. But while her teacher and fellow pupils feel sad and lonely at her loss, they cannot but rejoice at. the thought that her pure spirit has ascended from the church on earth to the church in heaven, there to bathe in the bright sunlight of God's jrlory, to sing His praises and to rejoice in His love, world with out end. ... The funeral services were conducted by the rector, the Rev. John W. Sellwood, in the Episcopal church, on Monday morning lust. The church was filled to overflowing with a large number of mourning and sympathizing friends. The Sundas- School, of which Inez was so long a member, turned out in a body and were seated around the chancel in the front ot" t h church. Tliry walked oat in pro cession to rho grave yard, carrying boquets of llowers in their bands, which they threw into the 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 those children standing around the grave and to hear their voices joining devoutly In the Lord's pravcr. The grave was bereft of much of its coldness for loving hands had been out all morning and tastefullv covered its walls with ever greens and llowers. At the head of the grave too stood a large wreath of llowers. With such loving preparations us these it seemed more like laying Inez in a bower of beauty than in the cold, cold grave, to await the resurrection morn. It is needless to say that the heart-stricken parents and sisters have the dcep'-st sympathy of this community, ilav the richest oi heaven's co'isolatious r-st upon t hem in i his their hour of trial.
