■■&SF John Covode, representative in
from Pennsylvania, had a nar
row escape from death a few days since.
One of his ftionds, a distinguished mem
ber .of Congress from Pennsylvania,, hap
pened, by accident, to examine a beauti
ful Weapon of war, of Sharpe’s invention •
and] in making the experiment of trying
the trigger, the rifle went-off, and the
hall pierced through the door of one room,
.passing into.an adjoining apartment, and
-catting its way through the rail of the
bedstead upon which the honorable mom
was seated at the moment. The' ball
passed ’within about a couple of inches of
his penson. A dozen persons, at least,
were in the same room, and by the great
est good luck in the world, nobody was
hurt.
SonijeDj—The Governor has signed
the bill ior the commutation of the ton
nage tax on the Pennsylvania railroad,
and also the bill affording relief to and
‘changing the title of the Sunbnry and
Brie railroad Company; The latter com
pany .mil henceforth be known as the
Philadelphia and Erie railroad. By the
pjbsago of the bill in reference to the
railroad, the litigation pend
ing between it and the Commonwealth is
at an end, the company being relieved, as
we informed* hot only of farther
OhaitTgep j«jiaccount 'of tpnnage, but also of
the judgements of $265,000, which the
State has recovered against It.

The Spring session will commence on
Wednesday, the 20th of March. Those
at a distancewho intend to enter, would do
well to give notice to the President, Kev.
X. G. 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. Horatio

Hobbibtb Mcedbb. — A dreadful murder was
perpetrated near Dowuingtown, Chester eounty,
on Saturday morning week./' The victim was a
pedlar, familiarly known os ‘'Dutch Jake,” and
the circumstances under which he met with his
death are as follows: On Friday night he stop
ped at Mortonvllle, and Was incautious enough
to display some two hundred dollars 'in gold,
which he had in his possession. 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

‘I beg leave to eall the attention of the citizens pf tbs
/Cnited States to the nltove Wines and Liquors, imported by
Udolpho Wolfe, of New Tork. whose uaine is familiar in
every part of tide country for the purity of his celebrated
S(jhikd\« Schnapps. Mr. Wolfe, iu his letter tome.ipeafc
ing of the purity of his Wines aud Liquors, says: ,1 1l will
stake my reputation as a man. my standing as a merchant
pf thirty years’ residence in the city of Sew York, that all
the Brandy and Wines wliirli 1 Untie are pure as imported,
and of the b-st quality, and can be relied u]«in bylevery 1
purchaser.” Every liottle has the proprietor!* name bu the
wax, anil a fac simile of his signature of the certificate.
The public are respectfully invited to call and examine ibr
themselves. For sale at Retail by all Apothecaries aad

Read the following from the New Yo<k Courier;
Enormous Business for one Sew York Merchant.—We
are happy to inform our fellow-citizens that there a one
plact in our city where the physician, apothecary, and
country merchant, can go and purchase pure Wines and
Liquors, os pure as imported, and of the'best quality. Wo
do not intend to give an elaborate description of this mer
chant's extensive business, although it will well repay any
stranger or citizen to visit Cdolpbo Wolfe's extensive ware
house, Nos. 18, 20 and 22, Beaver street, and Nos.. 17, It
and 21, Marketfield street. His stock pf Schnapps bn hand
ready for shipment could not have been less than thirty
thousand cases; the Brandy, some ten thousand rases—Vin
tages of ISofi tp ISSG; and ten thousand cases of Madeira,
Sherry and Port Wine, Scotch and Irish Whiskey. Jamaica
and St. Croix Rum. some Very old and equal to any in thil
country. He also had three large cellars, filled with Bran
dy. Wine. Ac., in casks, under Custom-House key, ready for
hcttl ing. Mr. \yol fe’s salesnf Schnapps last year amounted
to one hundred aud eighty thousand dozen, and wo hope ia
less than two years he may he equally successful with his
Brandies and Wines. •
‘ His business merits tho patronage of every lover of his
species. Private families who wish pure Wines ami Liquors
for medi.Ml use should send their orders direct to.Slr. Wolfe,
until every Apothecary in tho land make up their minds
to discard fhe poisonous stuff from their shelve*, and re-'
place it with Wolfe’s pure Wines and Liquors.
We understand that Mr. Wolto. for fhe accommodation
of small dealers in the country, puts Up assorted esses of
Wines and Liquors. Such a man, and such a merchant.
Should be.sustained against his tens of thousands of oppo
nents in the United States, who sell nothing but imitations,
ruinous alike to human health and impplUepO.
