Kninittlarders., : L
FoMhree days grthe present week, we have
had to record four foul murders, dong under
the influence of rum. We use the term runt
to cover the whole list of intoxicaling-drinks,
whereby men are made brutes and savages,
and society is hourly afflicted by a worse
than pestilence, /amine, or war. Of these
murders, one was committed on Tuesday, at
Syracuse; one in this city on Monday, and
another in this oily yesterday, at the St.
Nicholas Hotel—being tjje second stabbing
case at that house within a month—and the
fourth at Brooklyn, yesterday perhaps a
double murder. To these we might add a
rum-murder of an Englishman, named Ash
ton, in Virginia, lest week, and we doubt not
the files of the .Mirror, would show almost a
daily case for months past.
Is not this a frightful condition of things,
and whatever tileries for individual liberty,
the right of private judgment, &c. t urged
against the passage of the Maine law, can
there be any longer a doubt that society
would be the blessed/gainer if the whole rum
traffic, from begiqniog to end, were annihila
led. It is all verywell to argue for the tem
perate use of liquor, but experience terribly
proves that there is in rum a subtle, insinu
ating fiend, that begins the destruction of
judgment, the mdmenl it passes human lips.
Our prisons, penitentiaries, and alms houses
filled with the victims of rum; our tax and
pauper lists swelled chiefly by rum ; our
communities disgraced by vice and violence,
and lens of thousands of families hurled to
grief, beggary, shame and ruin, these are the
work of the fiery and insatiate demon — Rum!
We have thought the evil might be mended
if bad rum were put down ; if low grog-shops
were closed, but crime and murder issue from
the most respectable place where the fire-fiend
is harbored. There are other things, coming
within the broad range of intemperance that
afflict men that visit upon the persons
who indulge in them, individual sorrow, and
wretchedness, and shame, but there is no other
thing that makes its indulger a beast and a
maniac like rum, sending him forth to deso
late homes, disgrace society, and far beyond
himself fill the world with ruin and mourning.
When Mahomet pronounced a curse upon
the drinker of wine, he showed the wisdom
of a legislator who, backed by the sad expe
rience of ages, set the actual against the the-'
orelical, preferring insignificant sacrifice to
overwhelming ruin. He made, and wisely,
total abstinence one of the chief virtues of
religion. Aye, and because it served the
temporal blessing of man. Why is the chol
era raging up and down in our midst 1 —
Chiefly let rum, and ila consequences, an
swer. Rum I—War has been a pigmy des
troyer compared with it, and from the time
and long before Lot debauched his own off
spring, and Alexander’s drunken mistress
fired Persepolis, and-Nero in his cups fiddled
over burning Rome, rum has been a perpet
ual scourge—the fruitful parent of all the
foullest crimes on record,
And in this connection, a word about the
practice of carrying concealed weapons.—
The private individual armed, characterizes
savageism—the practice is shameful to civil
ization. The possession of deadly weapons
is provocative to bloodshed, especially when
rum has taken the place of] reason. Had
lb* wretched homicide at the (St. Nicholas,'
(Bh unarmed, his soul, despite his mad
caftuse —of itself shameful enough—would
nol to-day wriihe under the curse of
no widow find orphans would be wailing over
his crime. Mad and crazy he may have
been, but it was the madness and insanity of
rum, and that or its agent merits the severest
penally of (he lav.
We see it staled in ihe case of the Brook
lyn murderer—an editor by the way—that
u he has been considered to be deranged at
times in his mind, especially when laboring
under the influence of liqubr!” Can any one
tell us who was not, of will not be, deranged
under that influence? We have never advo
cated sumptuary laws, but if society can be
rid of (he monster in its midst, at no less cost,
and in no other way, let him even be utterly
hunted down and cast out—there is no prop
erty or other consideration, that can justly
weigh, for one moment, against the life, the
peace, and the prosperity of society.
An Omission. —The Herald copied last
week from the Richmond Examiner a pre
tended exposure of Ihe Know Nothing organ
ization. It forgot, however, to mention that
the Examiner had retracted, having “ been
informed by gentlemen of the highest respec
tability in Richmond that (he publication al
luded to is a gross and wholesale misrepre
sentation.'
In anti-masonic limes, after Ihe abduction
of Morgan, Ihe revelalor, the dead body of a
man was found in the river into which he
was supposed to have been thrown. At first
it was believed that this body was that of
Morgan. The anil-masonic leaders look if
in charge and made a great outcry over it.
Finally they became convinced that it was
not Morgan’s body; but one of them, per
ceiving that the supposed discovery was pro
fitable to their cause, said, “ Hush !itis a
good enough Morgan till after the elcctioij."

Aridther Wofjt in Sheep's Pldthing.—Tho
quiet .citizens ~gf Denton, Caroline 'bounty,;
Md., have, within a few days, been in a state!
of no little-excitement. -It appeare from the
Denton tfounigZ, thallh March last, a young 1
EnglishmapySf} or SOye&reofageJrnade his
appearahcd’,tiiere, and through’letters of tec
ommendationi purporting to he from Able
Stevens, of New York,editor of the National
Magasinei and from John Giles, Principal of
Bergen Acidehay, N* J., he~ procured the situ
ation of teacher in the male school in that vil
lage. Subsequently he informed the mem
bers of the M. E. Church that he was a regu
lar licensed preacher; and presented a li
cense dated at Richmond, Va., signed by: the
Rev. Thomas C. Hayes. Be was thereupon
invited to preach, and by his eloquence attrac
ted large crowds. A vacancy occurring he
was appointed to fill the place of “ young
preacher,” when he procured a handsome
sulky and a $165 horse, and soon became a
favorite with the ladies. All went on well,
until it turned out that he waaAngaged to be
married to two respectable girls. One of
them, however, unfortunately for him, wrote
to Mr. Stevens, to ascertain something about
him, and received for answer that he knew no
such person as John Howard, the name under
which it is alleged he had passed himself off.
When this letter reached Denton, (he Journal
says he attempted to elope with the other girl
to whom he was engaged, but fortunately
her friends saved her from his grasp.
The gentleman who sold him (he horse (Vbt
having been paid, then pursued him and found
him a mile from Denton with (he horse, which
he gave up, hitched in the woods. In a day
gr two he started for Baltimore and returned
in about a week, but being threatened with
lynch law by the citizens, he again left for
this city. On Wednesday last, however, he
went down again and slopped at the house of
a gentleman seven miles from Denton, where
he was arrested the same night by the sheriff
and a posse and committed to jail in default of
bail for his appearance at the next term of
the Carolina county circuit court. 4
The Journal stales that letters have been
obtained within a few days showing that he is
the same person who figuared last year at
South Groton, Mass., under the name of
James Cooper, or Cowper, where he married
a Miss Fletcher ; subsequently he created a
sensation at Rookland Lake, Mass., and in
January last 6ame near securing the charge
of the Clay streqt chapel at Richmond, Va.
The facts were published in the Sun at the
time of the flareup at Richmond, together with
certain charges preferred against him in rela
tion to the death of his wife in England.

A SMft«OUIUaa JDfU '
The- C„Flagsa ys that a
gentleman living-at Rlk Run> in jlhe lower
end of that.country, has the -good fortune to
pouess (he roost grimalkin'yet known of lhe
cat bind. Its body is of unusual ' lengthy its
legs like those of bench legged lice. The
fur is of a reddish color, the whole beautified
with black spots and streaks bf differenl fig.
urea j they are long In the back and round
on the belly and jaws. Block stripes iriin
ears, which are very long and tip
ped at the ends, with a bluet lull of hair. Its
physiognomy is fierce, and its nature savage.
His • master’s house being infested with
snakes, which had been, bred in a neighbor
ing stone fence, he took it-into his head to
eschew such game as rats and mice, and
make war upon the snakes, all of which he
soon destroyed. Having acquired a taste for
this kind of sport,'he extended the field of
his operations, frequently making excursions
more than a mile distant from the house, and
returning each and every day with a snake
ranging from two to seven feet in length.
He has continued this practice for eight weeks.
On one occasion he returned much fatigued,
and perfectly wet and covered with saliva.
It was supposed he had one of
those large but rare serpents known as the
Goobat, This turned out to be true,|for the
day thereafter Mr. Harvey B. Ralls foulid the
snake dead, and signs of a dreadful conflict
on the sand. Most or nearly all the wounds
had been inflicted on the back of the neck..
The weight of the horrid serpent was four
teen pounds eleven ounces I
This class of serpents is a native of Eas
tern Virginia, with very large heads and
great jaws—the mouth is armed with cutting
crooked teeth, among which are two longer
than the rest, placed in the forepart of the
upper jaw. All around the mouth there is a
broad scaly border, and the eyes so large
that they give it a terrible aspect. The fore
head is covered with large scales. Each side
of the belly is marbled with large spots of
chestnut color, in the middle of which is a
perfectly round, and like burnished gold.
They have been known to swallow small pigs,
muskrats, oppossums, &c. They avoid the
sight of mao, and are consequently rarely
seen.
The cat still continues his war upon the
snakes. These facts may not gain credence
at a distance, but (hey are so well known
and attested, that no one in the neighborhood
doubts them for a moment.

About one hundred other buildings were un
