Pershing, at as early a as possi ble. ‘ The attendance during the past ses sion has been far in advance- of that of atiy previous winter in the histoiy Of the College. The institntipn has been grad ually but surely winning its way into the affections,of the public, until it can now bOast a patronage far in advance of that of any similar school in Eastern Ohio or Western Pennsylvania. As evidence of its great success under Mr. Pershing's ad- ministration, wo may cite the fact that not only was a fine philosophical and chemi cal apparatus purchased this year, but the indebtedness of the institution -was re duced some 810,000. The Trustees are fortunate, indeed, in the services of a gen tleman of such efficiency and ability as Mr. P., and under his active management, the College cannot but succeed. The in stitution. we consider one of the best man aged and.meritorious in the country, and as such wfe can cheerfully commend it to all having daughters to educate. Thirty years ago, Hon.

Saturday morning, about ten o’clock, he visited the house df Furman Miller, situated on the public road, Some five miles from Dswningtown. and half an hour later he was found murdered in the neigh borhood, his brains having been beaten out with a club, and his skull embedded in the earth through the forea of the blows administered him. The bushes and stones in the vicinity were bespattered with blood, and everything iiP. cheated a severe struggle between the murderer and his victim His body was stretched out at full length, and one hand grasped a fence rail. ’His pockets ha'd been rifled of the gold and a watch and chain. A small box containing jew elry was also carried away, but his pack re mained near hii.side. A number of arrests have been made, but it is believed that the guilty party basket yet been discovered. The murder was committed within sight of three farm houses, and is one of the most atrocious on rec ord. Rsvoltiso Murder.— A most horrible mur der was perpetrated in Juniata county, on Sat urday night last. Between seven and eight o’clock two villains entered the house of Mr. Henry Anker, some eight miles horn Mifflintown, and demanded hie money. He told them he had not ten dollars.in the bouse, whereupon one of the villains drew, a pistol and fired at Mr A., the ball taking effect in one of his arms above the elbow. \ This effort not satisfying the villain, he sunk a hatchet into the old map's head, killing him instantly. They then prepared to plunder the house, but finding that mere were other per sons inside, they made a hasty exit from the dwelling. The alarm was jgiven and the entire neighborhood turned out in pursuit of the mur derers. On Sunday two,' men named Lovering and Howder were arrested bn suspicion and lodged ip jail. They have since confessed. Suicide or a Muederkk— John incarcerated in the county jail in this Borough, under sentence of death for the murder of his wife last summer, and who yras to have been exeeated on the 12th of April next, committed suicide on last Sabbath night, by hanging him self in his cell with a pocket handkerchief. It seems he had placed the handkerchief around one of the iron bars wbiph ruh across the plant lining of the cell and then tied il around his neck. In Older to prevent’himself jibing his hands, ho had tied them together and passed them over one. of Ids legs so that: he stood as traddle of them. In order 10 strangle him self he had drawn up liia feet to keep them off the floor, or rather, perhaps, he had to lean for ward in » stooping posture to .accomplish his fearful parpoae.—Cka£fald Journal, Tap Mew Cabikrt.
