SWIFT PUNISHMENT.

The terrible deed which for the past week has been shrouded in such deep mystery but now being fathomed and suspicious participants taken into custody is a murderous crime of such atrocious character that it may be classed among the most sensational tragedies of moderns times. The details as testimony of almost positive guilt reveal In a greater or less degree of at least four persons, are horrible in the extreme and furnish proof of human depravity that passes belief and the trial will doubtless disclose scenes equal to the blood-curdling acts that developed in the fiendish brutal and fatal assault on Cronin, who became the voluntary victim of a terrible death from various friends and traitors.
The secret plotting in this Instance in which the victim te accused by the villainous conniving of his own wife, ex-exposes the vile character of a monster calloused soul that would dare heaven and defy God. A deed of such devilish intent to fall of detection by skillful physician and passed without awakening suspicious of an unusually intelligent corners jury must have been devilishly conceived. If one line or sentence in a dozen of what has been stated by the debauched and debased; prisoner, McFarland, who acknowledged he struck the fatal blow, can be relied upon, there re terrible consequences in waiting for the author of this awful crime.
Lincoln has witnessed a number of violent deaths, but none equaled in horrible details the manner of this last Lucretia Borgia act. Mr. Sheedy was in the way and must be removed, to satisfy the incurable desire and-passion of a pirate whose base propensities now riot in fear of swift judgment and death, instead of the coveted prey of earthly wealth.
