Laura has met another who was willing to heal tho injury dono to her heart, since the suit began and is now married, so she probably thought the jury might consider that tho injury was not very great.

Fred Crump, the penitentiary prisoner mentioned yesterday as having attempted suicide by cutting his throat, is evidently crazy,aud it is likely, if ho does not kill himself too soon, will be examined erelong as to his sanity. After Dr. Byrd had sewed up the wounds In his throat, Crump was placed in a cell on the ground floor, and everything with which he could possibly kill him self was taken from the cell; but his hosts failed to consider the floor, and the upper bunk in the cell, and after all had quieted down, Crump climed into tho upper bunk, and jumped on to the stone floor, with reversed ends, striking on his head. He was dead to all intents and purposes for fifteen minutes, but his head proved to have been too hard, and he recovered. Ho vas getting along very well at last accounts.
