Tte prisoner wai taken to the county whew tht murder wa* committed, to

await a preliminary hearing before Ju«- tice llarker It took place at the church, which W*I crowded with spectators to

hear the trial. The prosecuting officer of the county wa* in attendance to man*

age the matter for the Commonwealth, while Simpson appeared for the prisoner. Helcher wa* led iato court by two officer*, and placed in one of the pewa bctweea them, lie w*t a«ked to stand up and listen to a complaint made on oath

against him for the murder of K!ixab«ih Ueleher.

"What aajr you to tbia complaint, are

you guilty or aot guilty?" called out the

raagiitrate, ia a loud voice, after he had finuhed reading it.

"Not guilty, air," reaponded the pris- oner.

"Are you ready for trial?'* "1 am, your ll>nor," said Helcher. "Then Mr. Attoraey, you may pro-

ceed for the Commonwealth," *aid the >

magistrate. That cfh:er at ones aru*e

from behind a pile of law baiks, and

making a moat respectful obeiaaace to

hi* Honor, Juitice Marker, be began He firat spoke of the fact that a murder had beea committed, ia the quiet little tillage; of its discovery; the evidence* of foul play; the circumstance* connect-

lag the priaoacr at the bar with the trag. ed); and the bloody finger mark*, ahow. 1

ing conclusively to his mind, that plun- der waa the object of the prisoaer'a visit to the hut; tad as showing this beyonJ any reasonable doubt, he alluded to the fact of Helcher having meaat to buy bin a aew outtit after the murder. When he had coacluded hi* opening, the people in atteadaace did aot have the slightest doubt of the guilt of the accused.

Sally Packard, farmer Maaoa, and aeveral police otficera and others, weie

called for the proaecutioa aad sworn.

The curiosity to hear tally's testimony waa great, aad aecoadoaly to thegeaeral latereat ia the trial. She was the first | witaes*, and testified oa direct eiamiaa* ;

tioa, that she bad ataid two or three

daya with the deceased prior to the mur-

der; that although the croae had had an

ill tura, she was ia her usual health when she left her; aad related the cir-

J cumstances attending her discovery of the body.

"She Is your witness," said the pruee* outing attorney to Simpsoa, when her

j story had beea t)ld. Now the fua begaa. After asking

a few uaimportaat question*, which put (

j tht witness quite at her ease, aad greatly | disappoiated Tom Jonee, who had hoped j and expected to aee the fur fly at the

first question, Himpson askvd: "What is your age, my good woman?' "None of your butiaest," she hotly

replied. The spectators laughed. "What is your objection to answering

my queetionr le it because, if yoor age were known, you would have no oppor- tunity of getting a husband?"

The crowd roared again, Tom'e loud shout being heard above the others-

"I shea t answer any such impertinent queetioae," replied Sally, ae soon as the

laughter had aufllcieaUy subsided eo that the could be heard.

Here the Commonwealth's attoraey interfered.

"We did not come here, your Honor,' •aid he, "to hare oar witneeses iasulted ia each a eaee as this."

COLO HA IK) FLOWERS.

Ouxki.ky, Coi. Mat 10th, l»U*.

Tbe prairie has assumed a delicate shade of green and the trees are in leaf.

Tulips are in b'oin in the gardens and beautiful wild fhwera are abucdant on

the plaint. The tint and most beautiful wild

thwera, loved by all the children as the ma) thwer, is the lily of tbe plains, or

the wild crocus. It bloaaoma very early and is g(>ne before tbe middle of May.

Tbe lupine or aundial baa come, in at

leaat three colon—pink, white and blue. There is another lovely thwer known as

wild geranium with bloeaoms a light shade of red, just earning into bloom Thia (lower, three or four inches high, is ecattered over the plains, and it very brilliant.

Tbe two kinds of cacti will aoon be io bloom. Tb*ae thwera are delicate ahadea of salmon and red. It ia difficult to handle them, except with leather glovee, or, as tbe Indiana do, with tongs. The early eettlera tell us bow the Indians used to gather the prickly pears, which

grow on the flat cactus with long wood* en tongs. These they uaed for food. In tbe abeecce of all other fruita they make quite a palaUble aauce, although rather insipid and full of aeeda.

Were the different thwera that bloom here in May and June growing together in a garden, they would present a most

attractive and gorgeoua display. Tbe moat of tbem are difficult to transplant as the roots grow very deep in the dry aoil. Tbe cactua ia an excepthn. It doee not care for much moiaturt, and the roota are abort. Tbe round or cigar cactua will keep alive and bloaaom if pulled up and thrown in a corner, but tbe bloaeomt lojk pale.

Tbe country U very barren of treea.

Tbe kinds uaed to adoro our atreata are, tbe native cMtonwood, ao called on ac-

count of tbe tiny aaeda being enveloped la cotton, which fly in the air, filling ones eyes and noeee in an unpleaaant way; and the box elder, also a native, belonging to the maple family. A few elms have been procured and aet out, but

grow much more alowly. There art

alto eome locuat and Lombardya. Tbe evergreent are brought from the foot* hillt with much difficulty.
