Persons living in the country have no conception of the distress and misery in a hrg city. laily are soon cafes, the nior-t pitiful, wandering through the streets.

The execution of Daniel O'Mara nud Patrick Irving, for the willful murder of Mrs. Margaret O'Mara, aged 7' years, aod her daughter, Mary fMara, aged 24 years, tool; place at Montrose. Susquehanna county, at I0:o0 .. i. today. The peculiarly atrocious nature of the crime, and the relation o! the parties, make the occasion one of unusual inu-iest. j j.iniel O'Mara is about thirty e;;rs of age, live feet Six inches high, weight one hundred and fifty pounds, and ra.iier pleasant look ing. Irving is thirty-four years old, five feet eight inches h gh, weight out; hundred and seventy-live pounds, low forehead, with somewhat repulsive features, and half-savage, half-idiotic expression. Thc crime for which they wen: executed was committed on the morning of Septem ber 27, 187!?, at O'Mara's home, about t wo miles from Montrose Station, on the line of thc Delaware, Lnckawanna and Western railroad. Daniel O'Mara was required to support his mother and sister during their lives, after which he would inherit th small farm upon which they lived, valued at two thousand dollars. Daniel was not satisfied with this arrangement, so he determined to get rid of them and se cure the properly at once. Patrick Irving was O'Mara's hired man. It was said he wished to marry Mary O'Mara, but she, did not favor his suit. Tho bodies of Mrs. Mara ami daughter were discovered early on the morning of the day above mentioned, lying on the right hand side of the southern-bound track, a short distance south of the Montrose depot. The hand and lower part of the arm was severed from tha body, and lay about eleven feet above and on the other side of the rail. No blood was found near Ihe bodies, either upon the track or rail. The intention of the murderers was evidently to make it appear that their victims were killed by being run over ol the railroad. A wagon road crosses the track about two rods below whore- the bodies lay, and upon this spots of blood were discovered which aroused suspicion of foul play. It had rained heavily the night previous, notwith standing which a line of blood was easily j traced from Ibis point, to 'Mra's house. A bunch 1 human hair, a piece of blood stained rope and some shreds, of cloth were also found on the way. One mile from the house a wagon w::s found, thc tires of which corresponded with newly made tracks on the road. Large blood stains were seen iu this wagon. At the house it was found an attempt had been made to wash the sitting room floor, which was not yet day. Hlood stains were still distinctly visible on the lloor, and splat ters of blood were seen upon door leading to the kitchen. In the next room, where O'Mara and daughter slept, some of the lied clothes were missing, and blood was found upon the bedstead. An ox team was discovered near the house with blood btains on yoke and oxen, showing that the bodies -.vere carried some distance upon the oxen and then placed upon the wagon. The physicians who examined the body gave it as their opinion that the women were killed with some blunt instrument, probably a bark 'pud. which was subse quently found covered with blood. I )'Mara and Irving were arrested on suspicion and taken to Montrose jail to await trial. )n January l.'J, they were brought into court, where they pleaded "not guilty." The trial lasted until January 2'.), whetuHhe jury returned a verdict of murder in the first degress. On January 2'., the court refused the motion for a new trial, and the prisoners received their death sentences. The Pardoning Hoard, which met Octo ber sth, heard an argument in favor of par- i don or commutation of sentence, but re fused to interfere in the case. Their death warrants were accordingly issued, and Tursday, November 12th. was lixed for their execution. On October loth Sheriff Heach Helme read the death warrants to them. O'Mara, evinced a spirit of resent ment, but finally shed tears. Irving was not particularly stirred by the announce ment. Their liehavior since has leen good. O'Mara's wife has not seen him since sen tenced. He spent most of yesterday and last evening with his spiritual advisor. He had an affecting interview with his sis ter, who an ived from Scranton at noon. 1 interviewed Irving at noon, lie still protested his inimcence, but in an incoher ent manner said if he must die he was ready. All preparations for lb" execution were j completed lat evening. Much excitement : prevailed because of a rumor that a secret society, known as the "Molly Maguires," had arranged to make as assault on the pri son during the night, for the purpose of liberating the prisoneis. but they did not make their appearance. At 7 this A. M. Father Murphy, of Auburn, Pa., and Father Slatterly, of Susquehanna, spent some time with the prisoners, who seemed to have given up all hope of earth and were directing all their thoughts towards eterni ty. They seemed somewhat resigned and hopeful of the future. Having received the la,t rites of church, at 10:1.1 they were led out by the the Sheiilf to the place of execution in the court yard of the jail, accompanied by their spiritual advisors. At lo.-'JO they ascended the platform of the scaffold. Holh men held their heads down, and spoke no word. Irving made a slight bow to the spectators, the Sheriff ad justed their caps, and at pre cisely half-past ten he sprung the trap, which raised them four feet in the air, where they hung suspended for fifteen min utes, when life being pronounced extinct by the attending physicians, the bodies were cut down, placed iu pine coth'ns and delivered to their friends. O'Mara left a written confession in the hands of Sheriff Helme, iu which he states he etitered the house and found his mother and sister and Irving quarreling, and, in a fit of passion, took up a stick of wood and struck his mother on the head, breaking her neck and killing her instantly. He then fled from the house, but returned shortly and found that Irving had murder ed his sister. That I ryitlg suggested burn ing tin: bodies, but he thought it best to place them on the railroad track. Irving protested his iunocence to the last. The annual report of the Commissioner of Indian Aftaira has beeu completed. He says the statistical returns accompanying his report will show unmistakable advances in civilization among nearly till the Indian tribes, and the results of the new Indian policy are "gratifying and most hopeful for the future."

Speaker Wainehas written a letter to the Portland JVtJw, in reponse to a paragraph mentioning him as a candidate for I. S.

The figures of the new Legislature of Pennsylvania have undergone another slight transformation, and its status is now probably definitely settled.

New VoitK, JW. 1 ONE S1VFET CHARITY. 1871. The mild weather which holds so late into the season is of great Itenefit to the j that the farmer wants it, and must have poor, who have some weeks longer to save, j it. to make him prosperous. T7c are look the h.ird-eamcd dollars necessary for fuel j ing for Jupiter Piuvius with as much anxie and clothing, llclief societies are taking j ty as the people ontsido of the metropolis, hold of the work in time. Perhaps one of j Kain jfl our cry, as, I presume it is yours, the pieasantest sights in thc city, to an eye j business which ioo:;s Ueyona tlie surface ol ttnngs, is the meeting to sew for tho poor, held every Thursday afternoon at the rooms of St. John's Guild, which I have before men tioned as one of thc kindliest, most active, and truly Christian charities in the city. At these rooms, once, a week, ladies of every circle in society meet to make up clothes for winter, which the poorest of the poor are not able to make for themselves. For instance, there are many women who support small children by going out at day's work, and who can barely pull together enough to keep a roof over their heads and coarse food in their mouths by slavingearly and late, and how can such find time to make up such clothes as they could not af ford to buy without literally going sltep less V Careworn mothers who find the sewing aud providing for their families an overtask for hand and brain, may consider what they would do if, in addition to this, they were obliged to earn all the groceries, thc house-rent, and candle ends from week to week. They will know what a blessed help is devised for the poor, when the Hiiosevehs and the Livingstons come down with their gold thimbles, in company with other unoccupied young ladies under sixty, of different parishes, who, half out of novel ty and half from thorough good w ill, desert the park and promenade to sew on gray flannel and red, "unbleached" and calico, in true Dorcas fashion. Done by such care ful hands, the sewing is of the neatest or der, I assure you, and young ladies who scorn plain sewing for their ''practising" and German lessons, might be put to blush by the exquisite neatness of the commonest work done by women whose wealth and po sition are such as never to require them to touch a needle for themselves. If there are women of leisure who, reading this, would like to help in such work, I would remind them where such skill would not be under valued. Hut if the sister-in-law with poor health.and the minister's wife, and the neu ralgic neighbor across the way are provided for in this respect, nothing is easier than to make up plain, substantial clothing for chil dren of different ages, aud send each gar ment, closely tied iu paper, through the mail, at au expense of not over twenty-five cents a package, to any relief society in New York. THE MAIL rACKAOK r.CSINE-e-. Hy the way, this business of sending ! packages by mail instead of express is com- inir rapidly into favor. The dealers in this wav, and A. T. Stewart & Co. tell me this :av. I branch of their business sprang iu one I month to $3,01)0, and goes on with rapidity . .' ! which is surprising aud delightful. A silk ,r- j dress pattern was sent from this city to San 'sj ! Francisco, by mail, for fifty cents, which 1 1 would have cost five dollars by express. : Families out West, who long to avail them- selves of the advantages of the city in shop ! nin.'. should bear this in mind. The rate j for sending packages exacted by our paler- j I nal government is only one cent for each j ! two ounces, and the firm above named say I I they have never yet lost anything sent in this way. I kuow of a lady who proposes to keep her friends out West supplied with fresh oranges and the best of coffee by mail. There is something in this, as all who have tried to find nice groceries in small ( country places will bear witness. A great ideal of fun has been made of Mr. John Huskin, the celebrated English writer on Art. fur setting un a pensioner of his in a , :inj mU udverti of with eopies of his last new book to let the , , . , , I'W.'l ttli.JVI l.tlC V.UU J'UIV uu eollee. I wish some of our reformers aud vis onaries had the sense to undertake any thing as practically good. VntiKr. It is a curious thing that plain labor iB the scarcest, and when the most men are out of employment that laborers should un dertake to force the question of wage?, but so it is. With :50,000 able bodied men out of employment in this city, with an ugly winter before them, during which the stop page of labor from natural causes will swell this army tof.0,00O, agitators are pushing strikes. N'o less than live are being organ ized at this time, which if carried out will j make bad work this winter. This 'long - shoremen are organizing a strike against a reduction of wages, which the steamship and other companies insist upon ; while j the coopers are about to turn out to oppose ! an edict of the bosses, that no man in their ! employ shall belong to a Cnioi:. The others are of less importance, because there are less men engaged in them ; but every strike, however small, must result badly. Tin: employers are not making money ; and to most of them an excuse to shut down is a relief rather than a damage. There fore they will not oppose strikes to any ex tent, but permit them to go on. The num ber of people out of work makes it easy to get labor enough to do all they want to keep up a show of business, aud to be ready i for operations when business resumes, j There will be intense suffering in the city j this winter. i TttADK. j Very few men are making money at all j in New York, especially those in legitimate j merchandise. The daily sales of merchau-1 dise in the city foot up :?1.",000,0W) ; and! one would suppose there ought to oe some money made out of this sum total of trade. but there is not. The expenses of running a iobhin" tr.ide are enormous ; and it takes an immense trade to deep it going. In a respectable store, the item of gas alone amounts to sijOO er annum. Then thc cost of keeping men on the road, of hook keepers, cashiers, buyers, salesmen, and the enormous item of rent, which is never less than So.H), and more frequently Slo,- j U(t0, absorbs profits terribly. And remem- j her that cash goods are now jobbed at a profit of one percent, on "leading" articles ; and almost every at tide the tharp buyer manages to make leading. The merchant labors for the landlord, as a rule. The fact is, the men who have made money iu New York, have done it in real estate, the same as everywhere else. Husi ness is liable to loo many fluctuations. Of the business nu n of the city, not over three per cent, retire with a fortune ; aud of that three per cent., a close examination will show that the fortunes they retired on were made by lucky chance-purchases at some point a long way back. For instance, one meichant of my acquaintance bought a t plat of ground in 1S50 for S2o,000. lie made, iu his business, about 2o,(HKf more ; but (hat ground sold last week for 275,- ! (Kif. which mid him comfortable for lif, There is nothing so certain iu life as the ground we stand on. It cannot burn, nor run away only a mortgage can eat it up. Land is a good thing to have, and, in the long run, will make more money than any thing elce. THE V.'EATHEIt j is in New York as, I presume, you have it. , We have bad no rain of any account, and i dryness rules. Of course, on the pavements . here it is pleasant enough : tut we know : j3 improving every day. Huyers are in- creasing their purchases every day, and there does seem to be a more healthy feel ing in the marts of trade. Let ns hope that it may continue. There is no reason that I can see why business should not be good. The people who have wheat and corn and oats in their bins need not suppose that their produce is not to lie consumed. It will all be wanted, and good prices are going to bo paid for it all. A little confidence is all that is neces sary. Please tell your readers so, aud get them to start the wheel. Once they move, the trouble will all be over. There is no reason for trouble at all. The country is as prosperous as ever, if people only think SO. PlETKO. Have you a severe wrench sprain ? Have you rkenmatism in any form ? Have yu stiff ncefc, or bunches caused by rheu- matic pains ? If so. Johnson's Anodyne Liniment is a specific remedy, used inter nally and externally. We often see a large Btock of cattle which do not seem to thrive, and come out "spring poor," all for want of something to start them in tho right direction. One dollar's worth of Sheridau's Cavalry Condition Powders, given to bucIi a stock occasional ly during the winter, would be worth more than an extra half ton of hay. Indisputable Evidence.

The successive failures which so invariably followed each attempt in this country to establish an art journal, did not prove the indifference of the peo ple of America to the claims of hiirh art. So soon as a proper appreciation of the want and au ability to meet it were "shown, the public at once rallied with enthusiasm to its support, and the result was a great artistic and commercial triumph THE ALDIXE. THE AI.DIXE, while issued with all the regu larity, lias none of the temporary or timely in terest characteristic of ordinary periodicals. 15 is an elegant miscellany of pure, li:;ht and graceful literature ; and a collection of pictures, the rarest specimens of artistic skill. In Mack and white. Although each succeeding Bomber affords a fresb pleasure to its friends, the rent value and beauty of the THE ALDIXE will be most appreciated after It U bound up at the close of the year. While other publications may claim superior cheapness, as compared with rivals of a similar class, THE ALDIXE is a unique and original conception alone and nnapproached absolutely without competition in price or charac ter. The possessor of a complete volume can not dnplicate tho quantity of fine paper and en gravings in any other shape or number of vol umes for ten times its cost ; and then, there is I a chrorao, besides ! The national feature of THE ALDIXE must j be taken in no narrw sense. True art is cos l mopolitan. While THE ALDIXE is a strictly J American institution, it does not conflne itself entirely to the reproduction of native art. Its mission is io cultivate a oroaa ana appreciative art taste, one that will discriminate only on grounds of intrinsic merit. Thus, while placing before the patrons of THE ALDIXE, as a lead ing characteristic, the productions of the most noted American artists, attention will always be given to specimens from foreign masters, giving subscribers all the pleasure aud Instruction ob tainable from home or foreign sources. The artislic Illustration of American scenery, original with THE ALDIXE, is an important feature, and its magniticent plates are of a siza more appropriate to the satisfactory treatment of details than can be afforded by any inferior page. The judicious interspersion of landscape, marine, figure, and animal subjects, sustain an unabated interest, impossible where the seopo of the work confines the artist too closely to a sin gle style of snbject. The Iiteratnre of THE AL DIXE a light and graceful accompaniment, worthy of the artistic features, with only such technical disquisitions as do not interfere with the popular iuteret of the work.
