TIM PEACE YFX;OTTATIONS.—The despatches
of the Russian GoVerninent completing and
cord-liming the telegraphic announcement of
the unconditional acceptance Of Austria's pro
positions, were received at Vienna on the 23d
ult., and a courier immediately conveyed them
*to Paris and London.
A memorandum, embodying the proposi
tions, had titer' signed at Vienna -and sent to
Paris and London. -
It. is reported that the Congress will meet

and that - the whole matter will be brought to a
conclusion, by February 25th.
The signing of the prelitninaries.priorto the
opening of the Couference, now only awaits
the arrival of the Turkish Plenipotentiary.
It is stated that Prussia refuses to agreelo
the conditions exacted by the Allies prelimina
ry to her admission into the - Peace Conferen

ded from the Conference.. but be, invited to
sign the final deed of settlement.

Tits BALTIC.--Letters received to the 30th
ult., speak of Mild weather; and the resump
tion of navigation, more or less, at Pillau,
Metrel and Cuxhaven. The ice was breaking
up.
Trn CRIMHA.—The correspondence from the
Crimea, from the "English camp, to January
18th, reports the army healthy. The Russians
continued to fire from the North Forts. Prince
Gortschakoti had handed over the command to
General Luders, and issued a new valedictory
to the commanders in the Crimea.
On the 9th of January the . Russians made
an expedition over the ice •to attack Kertsch,
but Gen. Vivian being on the alert, they retired.

An Awful Tragedy—A Young Wife Mur
dered by her Husband—Subsequent
Suicide.
We copy from the Memphis Whi g," of the
9th inst., the followhig narrative of one of the
most horrible tragedies we have ever heard of
"Ai r e heard, yesterday, the particulars of
one of the most melancholy tragedies• that we
have known. for - many years," which occurred
in Marshall county, Miss., about 12 milesirom
Holly Springs, on Nliednesday last. Mr. R.
R. Cox, a planter in good circumstances, killed
his own wife while she was lying asleep in
her bed, and then shot himself through the
- heal, killing himself instantly. This occurred
some time during, the-night, but was not known
until the next morning, when a negro man
went to the room to make tire, and found the
door fastened. Not. being able to raise any
one on the inside, the neg ro Called the overseer,
who carne and forced the door open, when he
found both Mr. and
.Mrs. Cox dead—she lying
on the bed with two biillets through her head,
and he lying on the hearth, shot through the
region of the heart, with his hand still grasp
ing the deadly revolver. They had been mar
ried but a short time, and it is supposed that
Mr. Cox was insane at the time, as -he has
freqnentlysuffered from aberrationsof the mind.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Cox were known by
many of our citizens, he as the possessor and
occupant some two or three years since, of the
. dwellin t ' s in the southern part of the city known
as the •'Swiss Cottage," while the young anti
beautiful bride was, but a fear months since,
a gay and lively school-girl, attending Mrs.
—Armstrong's school-in - this-ti ty;sand-wil7-be
membered by many as the pretty Miss Sallie
Wilson. Leaving School, she married Mr. C.
sometime last 'all, and now she has been cut
olf from alli ly opus and happiness by him
~"'"
who had .. I nu avowed to love and protect
her. Mr '. was a worthy young man, and
there can be-no doubt but that he was labor
ing under insanity at the time of this awful
calamity ; in fact, many circumstances• that
transpired a day or two previous go to show
that he was not in his right mind.
Much sympathy is felt in this community
for the cal - pities and friends of both the de
ceased persons—families of the first standing
in North Mississippi. May God be their help
in this, their hour of the deepest and most
heart-rending affliction.
.-
The Memphis Enquirer, speaking of the
affair, says the parties had been married only
six weeks, and adds :
Mi. Cox is the third male member of a
'worthy family who has died a violent death
within the last eight or ten years. One, in a
fit of insanity, threw himself from the deck of
a Mississippi steamer, and. • was 'frowned :
another was slain by the accidental discharge
of a duuble-barreled shot gun, when starting
011 a camp -hunt; and now we have to record
the death of still another, and that of his fair
young wife, by his own hands.
Singular Acquittal of a Woman Charged
with Murdering her Husband.,
We copy the following from one of our wes
tern exchanges. It needs no comment :
"Mrs. Jane E. Ruggin, of Piqua, Ohio, has
just been tried and cleared of the crime of
murder in the Miami county court,. Mrs. Rug
gin poisoned her husband, and confessed the
crime in the presence of two hundred persons
—so_stated by,the cortespondent - --and yet, by
the sagacity and ability of her counsel, she
was cleared of the horrible crime. It appears
that she had for a long time entertained the
idea of getting rid of her hnSband, who was
an excellent person, that she might marry a
fellow whose appearance was very digesting.
She purchased arsenic. and after two attempts
succeeded in killing him with it. She was - -
cleared. because, her testimony being ruled
out, the evidence was of a circumstantial char
acter, which could not warrant conviction.—
Mrs. R. is represented as
... a woman of prepos
sessing appearance, young, and a church mem
ber; and her case excited the most intense in
terest throughout the whole of Miami county.
Her discharge is owing to the skill
__wi th which
her case was managed, for the very strongest
circumstantial evidence of her guilt - is said to
have corroborated the confession, which was
ruled out of court."

Know Nothings Routed.
-On Friday, the. Bth inst., an election was
held in LO'cle Haven, which resulted in the tr-i
-urophan- election of the whole Democratic
ticket'. Last year the K.. N.'s swept every
thing before them in.that place, but there, like
everywhere,else, the power of Know Nothing
ism is fast fading away, and this year the
Democrats achieved an easy victory. Three
cheers for Lock - Haven. •

*FEARFUL EXPLOSION . AND Loss or LrFE.—
Landun, C. W., Feb., 16.—The steam-boiler in

about 2 o'clock this. afternoon, 'blowing the
building to atoms and burying thirty men in
the ruins. Five were taken out dead, and
nine others seriously' wounded.
A A.IoNKEY TILICK.-A keeper of a restaurant
in the lower. part of the city has a ring-tailed
monkey for a pet, which he usually ]caves 'at
his place of business on locking it up for the
night. When the doors and Shutters were
opened - yesterday awning nothing was to be
seen of the monkey, but no aperture could be
discovered by which he might have escaped.
This tnysterious disappearance battled search
for some time, but Jocko being loudly called,
was at last observed peeping through the door
of the stove, into which he had crept for com
fort after the fire expired.—N. Y. Cora.
Tim Loss:or. Ocski4 KAM sits.—A writer in
Hunt's Merchants' Magazine says :
''Since 1853 twelve steamships. lest at sea,
have cost 1,250 human lives, and $7.250,000
Of property. The' 'lndependence' sunk with
120 lives in the Pacific, and the Tennessee and
St. Louis followed, total wrecks. The Hum
boldt and the San Francisco were wrecked in
the Atlantic the -satne year. The Franklin,
City of Philadelphia, and Yankee Blade fall in
the catalogue of 1854. City of Glasgow, with
480 lives the Arctic, with hundreds more,
precious lives, were the crowning catastrophes
of that year. In 1855 we have the sinking
of the North Carolina, and the stranding - of
the Golden Age,. which last, however, was
saved and repaired."
Trn EXPIWTED FRENCII liEtlL—The Paris
correspondent of the N. Y. Times writes, that
great events are said to be preparing for the

Tuillierics is to undergo important inklitica
