The Frrrmnn's Journal another Ilnhlin Repeal
paper, has the following song which speaks the
National abhorrence of Informers. Is not "the
girl I adore," hut a type of country :
Sons of the Prtrctlrra.
Am Mirhle 1Mb.
I nniMUT that I roam'd with the girl I adoro
Through a Land of Flysinn drlipht,
. ,i t ii,i ,, ,i, ... ,,., , ...
I I eonld only exist in her sinht :
And I dreamt when my fond protestation had
Cen.s'd,
She conl'iiss'd that for me she would die,
Tut I also dreamt w hat charmed me least
A IV.tkctm-e was list'nirg hard hy.
I sprang en his throat like a wolf on his prey
For unbounded and wild was my wrath
And I ask'd him how dared lie hi a pretence con
vcy
Where lovers were plichtinp their troth ?
lie said, 'twas his means of subsistence to spy
He had noted my vows threat and small,
And he cried with a leer in his rascally eye,
"Wanner ulitill hei.r of it nil.'"
I dreamt that I rov'd by myself f;ir away.
Through the wild scenes where the green hea
ther glows,
And that wearied with travel at close of (he day,
I re-air'd to my home for repose. !
I fl.-w to my couch on sweet slumbers to feast,
T!ut with Morpheus not lonj did I 'hide
W!n 1 dreamt I discover') what charrn'd me
least
A "Dktective in bed by my side!
I dreamt, I awoke with an aoniz'd shriek,
That my hairs stood on end like the trees,
And with wonder I mus'd on my visions unique, j
And my waking reflections were these : ,
We dream many dreams, very curious to see, 1
Iloth by day, and when nipht's shadows fall
Ent to fancy this land is the land of the free,
la the dream most fantastic of all.

He could not have dared it.
A breeze came from thr south,
Across the billows sweeping;
His heart was in his mouth.

With the deepest emotion;

When the fart they shall be told,
That he suffered frort sea-sickness.

once the vesture from Ihe sight of man, and to
mnkcottr scnmhil no greater tlmn it is. Know
yon not as bishop y in must know it that Ihe
founder of the Cnrislian religion b qum h-d In

worship Him in the s,iirit and in truth! And
he inny be worshipped everywhere, not merely
at Jerusalem in the temple, not only nt Treves
in Ihe presence of the holy coat. The zealous
nnd rfli-nded pastor goes on to state that the
Christ inns i.f the apostolic limes, nnd of the fir!
three centuries p rmitted neither an iumgenor
n relic nnd of the latter they must have had
many in their clinrrhes, nnd it wns not until

A Horrible outrngo wns committed in Greene,
near Norwich, Chonnngo crsmty, N. Y., last
week Ihe object of which is supposed to have
been murder, for the purpose of screening Ihe
perpetrator nt a dark crime. Two men mask
ed entered n house in the afternoon, seized a
Mrs. Ilttrdick, gagged her to stifle her cries, car
ried her into the woods, TO rods from the hnue,
threw her into a ditch, piled rails and timber
upon her, nn which they jumped for the pur
pnso of kil'ing her. When leaving her, the
murderer undoubtedly snopnsed she was dead.
The woman was soon missed, the alarm wns gi
ven, search was made, and she was found in
two hours nnd n iiall'nfter her disappearance.
She was rescind from her perilous sitnntion,
and rireivid every attention tier critical stale
demanded. She wns for some days deranged,
hut is now rational, nnd bids fair to recover.
Two nrresis have been tnnde, nnd the individ
uals were undergoing an examination before a
magistrate at our latest advices. YV. have
since received Ihe following account of the
transaction, in the Norwich Journal :

good looking, nnd was married a few weeks
since. Her health is poor, s he hnvingls?en sub
ject tor nnny year to a sp.eies nf epileptic fit.
On Monday evening, the VMth tilt., this young
couple (Ihirdiek by name) hail retired somewhat
enrly, when the husband, feeling some pain
from n wound in the leg, received some time
before from an axe, arose and went into the
kitchen, w here the rest of the family were, for
the pot pose of dressing the sore. He had been
there a few minutes, when he heard a scream
front the bedroom, nnd nn going in they found
Mrs. Ihirdiek on the floor, laboring tinder ex
treme t'rirht. She said thnt soen efter her hus
band leit the room, she felt a hand pass lightly
over her thee, but supposing thai it was Mr.
Rurdick fit-ling hi way to bed, she was not a
lormod until the h'.nd seized her throat and dis
abled her from making any out-cry. Immedi
ately another arm was p!nced under and raised
up her hea l, while a third hand grasped In.r legs
nnd pulled her from the hed. S!ie seized the fea
ther bi d with one hand, and with the other, by
a iVspor.-'te effort, siu-cee.l. d in releasing her
tiirofst. nnd sceamed. When found she and the
bed were on Ihe floor, nnd nn article of wo
nint.'s apparel (a cape we believe) lay near by.
This can" was nlterwnrds identified as her mo
thtr's a Mrs. Baxter, who lives in the next
house, also a tenant of 'I'nele John." A floor
was open loading out of the room, but no other
trace of the perpetrators wns found.
On the following day (Tuesday, the 30th.)
Mr. Biudiek, being in n very weak state, went
to the same room alter dinner fir the purpose of
rest, having first taken the precaution to secure
the blinds by a string, and to fasten tho door
that wns entered the previous night. The win
i'ow wa raised and left up. Between two and
three o'clock Mrs. Hammond, hearing a sligtit
noise in the direction of Mrs. B.'s room, went in
nnd diseovc red it empty, and Ihe blinds taken
Irom the hinges, thn string broken, and the
diMir stiil Isrled, As the nin'e members of the
family were nt work in the fields, some li'tle
tune elapsed be'ore they were informed of these
fxet, when Mr. Hammond immediately mount
ed his horse and gave Ihe nlartti in the village.
The story that a woman was carried off in mid
day, and within the corporation, in plain sight
of ihe whole; village, gained but little credence,

were disguised by painting their faces. They
then attempted lo pour something from a vial
down her throat. From her description, it wns
probably laudanum. She did not swallow any,
hut succeeecd in breaking the vial. She beg.
ged of them (on seeing them take out Iheir
knives, with the remark that 'they might as
well finish her then as any time') not to kill
her aa she wished tn communicate something to
her husband before she died. They then pro
dnced pencil and paper, and pretended tn write
as she dictated. When this was done, vim

They deposited the letter for her husband un
der some leaves hy her side, nnd said tint they
would come Ht night when she vns riend nn I
cover her up. One of then said 'he had do1?
about enough for five dollars.' They then loft
her, and by dint nf struggling, slip turned over
and got her head above the water. She soon
became insensible, and i.i this stale she was
found.
Her mother and brother were immediately
arrested on suspicion of some knowledge of tho
nPairs, though they were undoiihleilly absent
from the spot on the day. They are the mo
ther and brother of the Bixter who was sen
tenced last Court to State prison, nnd ufit:r
wards had hi leg amputated at Norwich. Mrs.
Rurdick has always borne a pood character,
though that of the rest of the family is. notori
ous. The examination hns, for obvious reason,
been held in private. At a meeting of the ci?i.
r.en, a comtnitte nt fifteen in the village, ami
ten out, were appointed to investigate the tifhit.
They are all active and efficient men, and
are determined to spare no efforts lo discover
Ihe guilty. A yet all is mystery, though there
are a thousand suspicious circumstnrces which
might be told; still it is not expedient t'int thj
investigntion of the committee should he fore
stalled. The whole matter is in their harvjs,
and if there is a possibility of discovery it will
pe made.
We should mention further that the letter to
the pusband was found as Mrs. B said, under the
leaves, on Saturday last. There were n few
pencil scratehea on it, but no writing. This
story lias been gradually drawn fi un her nnd
more will be told, probably, us she gnuu

Tho Queen of Spain (her Majesty lis r.ot
yet completed her l.'ith year) is very fond, it
seems, of bull-fights, nnd during her slay at St.
Sehai,tian, Pampelunn, nnd other place, every
attention lias been shown to tier Miju.ty's tart j
in this particular. What thnt taste is may he
judged of from the following accounts of two
bull-lights, at which she was present:
As poor as tho Royal party arrived, thcr
piendnrs and toridora entered the square and at
tacked the bull, who was loose o:i the (iueert
throwing down the key of the door, nnd th
same exploits were repented a in the morning
but the bulls were larger and more Jeracian t
and the mules were decked nut more gaily, ,e.
ing covered with cloths jF yellow, and reJ ri
hnnd on their tails; end two large SS' em
broidered on the cloths. Before killing the bull,
the metador went en his knees to nsk the Q.'.oenV
permission, and as soo.n as she assented, ho at
tacked the animal with sword and flai. TV '
military band in attendance struck nn an ai.,
which continued till the animal was k IVi,
sometimes with several s'rokes, soei-t ones w,i.
one. The fourth bull was so quiet 'hat 1 1 , peo
ple Inti lly called out prrros! (dogs); but, th..ogl
attnekpd by these animals, irjn i- re n;rf fn.v,.',
the bull was not roused till they pl.irttr,! fr
