A YOUNG WIFE MURDERED. Louisville, April 4. —Our community is much excited in consequence of the j discovery of a most cruel murder, which ! appears to have been committed on Thurs : day night. The name of the person mur dered is Mary Travers, a beautiful and ac ' complished girl of only 24 years of age, who had been married but about eight months. Her husband, who is supposed to have committed the horrid deed, was found lying beside the dead body of his wife in bed He had also attempted to commit suicide by cutting his throat, but his injuries are not believed to be serious. ANOTHER TRAGEDY. Louisville, April 4.—lntelligence has been received here of a startling tragedy which occurred at Washington, in this state, yesterday. A Mr. Baker, a resident of that town, armed himself, and deliber ately took the life of his own daughter, af ter which he placed the death weapon to his own breast and SIKH himself. No cause has been assigned as yet for the dreadful tragedy. FEMALE RIOTERS TRIED AND ACQUITTED. At the late term of the Court of Com mon Pleas of Richland county, Ohio, the case that created most interest, as we learn from the Mansfield Herald , was one in which several ladies were indicted and tri ed for riot. It appears that some time in November last the ladies of the village of Belleville, in that county, to the number of eleven, some of whom having fathers and some brothers, who frequented a liquor shop kept by a man named Morris, resolv ed to put an end to the cause of their troub les, and did so by smashing his casks and decanters, and destroying the liquors. They were complained of by Morris, and were indicted as before stated- This case came on for hearing, and being arraigned at the bar plead •' not guilty." Numer ous witnesses were examined, and the case occupied somejhree d ays. The jury was duly charged by the court and retired. In about an hour the l-ll rung announcing that they had agreed upon their verdict; and the people, who hid manifested the' most interest, crowding the court room du ring the whole trial rushed from all parts of ihe town, so that the court room would scarcely hold. When the foreman of the jury rose to hand in the verdict, the most breathless silence prevailed; and when he responded to the clerk, "not guilty," the words were caught up, and such shout ing. clapping, laughing and shaking of hands was never before witnessed in that dignified ball ol justice. Although late at night the young men of Belleville could not wail for the morning or the cars, but fooled it home to tell the news. When the ladies arrived the next day, they were received with every demonstration of ap proval by all the inhabitants ot the vil lage. Sandusky llegister. Destructive Fires. —The residence of Henry Warsing, in Brush Creek Valley, this county, was, we learn, entirely de siroyed by fire one night last week. The inhabitants were asleep at the tune and escaped being burnt to death by a singular circumstance. It appears that there were :n the house two kiadcd guns, which the lire in i'.s progress reached and caused to discharge. The explosion aroused the inmates, who found the lire had made such progress as to barely admit of their escape. Mr. Warsing, we understand, after getting out ot the house, procured a ladder and entered again by an upper window in time to secure some valuable papers and some -money belonging to persons for whom he is guardian. Everything else, we believe, was consumed. Another destructive fire occurred on Thursday morning, 2(>th nit., by which the dwelling of Mr. John Swope, about half a mile West of Col. Reamer's, i-i this county, was consumed with all its contents. 'The fire originated from the fine at the roof, and the wind being high, spread with such rapidity, that the family, consisting of the parents and several small children, barely escaped with their lives. Mr. Swope is a shoemaker by trade, and loses by the fire all his stock, tools, books, &-c., making bis loss very severe.— APConneltsburg llepublican, l'ulton coun ty■ Horrible Murder in Washington comi ty.— Chartiers township, Washington county, Fa., was the scene of a most cru el murder last week, which has created an excitement almost equal to the sudden ta king otT of young Norcross at Altoona.— A highly esteemed citizen, named iSamuel White, had purchased a tract of land, and on Monday was to make a payment of S4OOO on the same, and the expectation of getting this booty, it is supposed, incit ed the villain or villains to commit the dreadful deed. Early in the morning, Mrs. White had arisen, and hearing somebody in the liouse, ran to a neighbor for assis tance. When she returned she discovered her husband weltering in his blood—his skull crushed, his neck almost severed, and otherwise disfigured. The bloody axe with which the outrage had been commit ted lay upon the floor. The money thev expected to get was not in the house; con sequently they reaped no reward for their dreadful crime. No arrests have yet been made. • Sad Snicidc. —A Pittsburg paper states that a young man of that city named James Beale, 22 years of age, was so depressed in spirits from having, contrary to his general habits, become intoxicated, that on Wednes day he swallowed four ounces of arsenic, and though proper antidotes were applied, died early the next morning. Letter from Philadelphia# „ PHILADELPHIA, April 6. Hero is a curiosity, illustrating the sad truth that great gilts are sometimes coupled with great vices: In the interior of our peni tentiary there are two cells, the interior walls of which are painted in water colors, in a manner so elaborately beautiful as to cause an involuntary wish on the part of the visi tor that the chamber of his or her residence could bo similarly adorned. The work was performed by a convict at odd intervals of leisure. The qnly tools at his command were a ruler, lead pencil, and a small brush, which, it is said, he made from his own hair. The pattern is kaliedoscopic, interspersed with rich inedalions; the effect of the whole being, with the exception of transparency, very sim ilar to that ot stained glass. The four sides of the cell, and the aftdied roof, are alike covered. Over the brass water fawoet, which, by the way is burnished like a mirror, there is painted a water cooler, aud at the place where his cot touches the wall is represented the head of a fashionable bedstead; all this is executed in a highly artistic manner, arid will hear close examination. Tho convict who performed this beautiful work has al ready served four years in this same prison; and, strange to say, is now in Moyamensirig awaiting trial upon a fifth serious charge. lie v. Dr. Stephens, the Rector of tSt An drew's church, of this city, is about to pav a visit to Palestine, and for tho expenses of travel was presented with a purse of £I,BOO by several wealthy and liberal members of his parish. On Wednesday evening a young man seem ingly about 115 yoars of age, arrived at tho Girard House from New York, and registered his name as "11. J. Johnson, Va." During the evening he was in company with a gen tleman of this city, and at aho'ut 11 o'clock retired. A short time after he went to his room, a gentleman occupying the adjoining j chamber heard a noise as if some one was in great pain or distress. lie went to the door and found it was locked. He knocked, but : the person in the room did not unlock it, when it was forced open by three persons who had been attracted to the door. On en tering the room, Johnson was found undres sed, lying across the bed, and apparently in the greatest agony. On a table was a vial, ; labelled in large letters, "strychnine." The ! occupant of the room when asked if ho had ; taken the poison, said yes, but that he had j doue so thinking it was morphine, he having j slept badly for several nights, and had taken • it merely to make him sleep well. A physi- ; ciau was in attendance, hut nothing could be i done to save the patient, and he died almost immediatoiy. The shirt worn by the deceas ed was marked J. Alfred llnlsey, and the gentleman who was with him previous to his retiring to bed, testified before the jury of inquest, that Halsey was his proper name, and that he was engaged in the carpet store 1 of Messrs. Brown & Co., Courtland street, ' New York. The father of the deceased re- I sides in Petersburg, Va., where he is engaged in the wholesale clothing business. The entrance of Christ into Jerusalem was i celebrated by the Catholic population of this | city on the oth with the usual ceremonies.— The emblematic "palm" was to be seen in the hands of the congregations of those churches at almost e\ery step, and this will constitute but the preliminary observances of "Holy Week," now curreut. The obser vance in some of the churches of other de nominations were also unusually interesting. The Episcopal churches generally exhibited some tokens of the season of fasting and of j the "passion," if in no other manner at j in the greater apparent devotion of their ( members. The German Lutheran Church at i Fifth and Cherry streets, was also the scene I of an impressive ceremony on this occasion. 150 boys and girls, 11 >ne under fourteen years of age, were eoulirraed there yesterday morn ing.. The girls were dressed in white, arid when around the altar responding to the questions of the minister, presented a very pretty sight. An appropriate sermon was delivered. The children confirmed will have the sacrament administered to them on Fri day next. A largo crowd assembled outside, to see the children as they came from the church.

Making a total of 405,945 bushels. During the same period in 1850, the amount measured was 505,177 bushels, being an excess of 95,232 bushels over the first three months of 1857. BGWJoseph Horner of York county, emi grating to the West, had his pocket picked -last week of SBOO whilst he was asleep in the cars, somewhere between Altoona and Greens burg. The money was in an outside pocket. His loss left him entirely destitute, and tho company returned him free to bis home.

Whereas, one William Leilh, late of the city I of New York, drug broker, has recently been | engaged in the nefarious and unlawful business ol counterfeiting the medicines known i brougb : out the world as Holloway's Pills and Hollo way's Ointment, and ordered to be printed, un der false pretences and for fraudulent purposes, 500,000 copies of the book or pamphlet of di rections around each box and pot. And whereas, the counterfeit book rr pam phlet is well calculated to deceive, being a fac simile of the original, except so far as regards the water-mark in the paper, viz "Holloway, New York and London," which appears on ev ery leaf of'he genuine document, but can only be seen by holding the paper between the eye and the light. And whereas, the aforesaid William Leith, having been arrested, and fully charged, on ex amination before Justice Connolly, with procu ring the ptinting and uttering of the above counterfeits, escaped from the custody of the officers on the 2tlth day of December, 1856, and is now a fugitive from justice, and is supposed to be pursuing his dishonorable and felonious designs elsewhere. The Druggists of the various cities, towns and villages of the United Slates are therefore hereby cautioned against dealing with the afore said William Leith for any articles purporting to be llollovvay's Pills and Holloway's 0")t --ment, or purchasing any preparations bearing that name from any quarter, unless the leaves of the pamphlets wrapped around the boxes and pots containing the same shall bear the words " Holloway, New York and London," in the form of a water-mark which can be distin guished by holding up the printed sheet singly to the light. All others are counterfeit, and all persons vending them are liable to heavy pen alties, and will be prosecuted to conviction by the proprietor of the genuine preparations, as the only means of guarding his own interests and protecting the public against damage to health and life from the use of deleterious ar ticles sold under the guaranty of his name and reputation. The said Leith is a Scotchman by birth, about 35 years of age, of good address, deep-toned voice, florid complexion, light hair and thin whiskers, gray eyes, standing about 5 feet 85 inches, and somewhat inclined to cor pulency.
