Warning Io I'.ircnts. Iteccntly .1 miscreant named Ortivein was liuii"; at Pittsburgh, fur murdering a whole family named Ilamnott. Ortwcin lived with them. On tho evening of tho murder they went out on a visit, leaving two little daughters anil Ort wcin anil .1 hoy in the house. The three children were all murdered during tho even ing and some money taken. When the pa rents e.imo home they were knocked down as they entered the door and killed The house was then fired. Ortwcin was arrested, con victed and hanged, having confessed his guilt previous to his execution. Mrs. .Swisshelni writes as follows upon this heart-rending oc curence ; Ilefnre this I f.iinnett horror passes out of tho pub-lie mind, p-rmit 1110 to call attention to the les-011 it testi'hcs on tlio common habit of h'aving children to the ciro ot servants and other irresponsible persons. It is possi ble that Ortwcin told the truth in his last coiitos-wii, and Unit he had siniplv been waitin ' an opportunity which would certain ly h.ivo come sieuier or later, but the proba bilities are thai lu lied to the last, nnd only Ciiiilcssed that pait of his crime which bis shrewdness told him it was luctoss lo deny ; lint, however this may be, the parents who went out for a social vi -it, ami left two little girls from dark until bedtime and late in the night wholly in the power of an apprentice and tramp, cannot be innocent in thecatas tropiiy which followed, l'oor Mr. and Mrs. Humnett paid iv sad penalty for their want of pnidi'iice ; but while wo regard them as victim-, public safety require? that their ne glect ol duty should not go unnoticed. It is the nuii 0 important that attention be called to this view of the case, since their delinquency was of 11 kind so common in all classes of society. There nro perhaps few patents who do not, bometiiucs, go from home and leave their children with persons to who-e care they would not cntiiut lilty dollars in cash, True, few of tlm little ones are murdered outright by their gu:iiilian, because tliu number ot absolute monsfer in human lorin is limited; but ninny u child elies limn unsuspected injuries received at tho hiiiiiL nl tin so to who-e caio it hits been confided, while ialhcr and mother took tea with a neighbor, attended 11 lecture, 11 con cert, u theatre, an iiening party or prayer meeting. Jliiuy, seed of disca-o is sown ami luai.y a ies-011 in Humility tutiht never dreamed of by the coMidiitg parents, lhose parenis who, to enjoy any pleasure or means of improvement, leave their little ones to the c.irc of Jliddy picked up in an intelligence, oilier, or a tramp culled front the tiuiLiile, too either grossly deficient in prudence or in natural nifection, and cer tainly are morally re-ponsiblo lor the conse quences of their neglect of duty. It seems lutid that a mother should be "lied at home;" hut this is one of the condi tions of the molhirhood, and 110 claim of so ciety, 110 pretence of culture, no religious duty, no mission ever cm release her from the obligation of personal care of her chil dren. Only when she is obliged to Icavo them to earn their bread can she he guiltless in for saking her post, fur an hour, without pro viding a substitute tm whoso sense of honor and infection she can rely. This duly of constant, personal care de volves, principally, upon tho mother, becnuso it is tlio father's duty to go out and win their bread and when she goes I'or iclaxatiou, it should bo when he can supply her place at home, siocicty should not expect the lath er anil mother of 11 family to go nut together, for evening amusements, except when a grandmother, or other relation, takes their place at home. The birds might teach us tisetiil le.ons on this wibject.

From somo brlefblognphical sketches In tho Philadelphia I'rtu, wo extract tho fol lowing, with corrections: Tlm name of Muhlenberg is most inti mately and honorably identified, not only with tho colonial, but the subsequent history of Pennsylvania. Xo family within the realm of the commonwealth can present 11 umro formidable Ixhlbit of actual worth.

His chief works in this, his favorite department, wero "Catalogiis I'lantarum," "Gramina America; .Seplcuttionalis,"anil "Flora Lanenstriends " He lived in quiet elegance in Lancaster, Pa Another son, l'reileiick Augustus, was a man of fine natural ability, a polished speak er and a superior presiding officer, lie offi ciated as a minister in Xew York until the Ilritlsh forces entered that city. Ho was subsequently a member of the old Congress ot"L"7t)-S0, a member and speaker of the Pennsylvania legislature in 1781-1, after wards Sftntc Treasurer mid President of tlio convention that ratified tho United States Constitution. He win alsi a member of Congress irom 17S! to 1707, and presiding officer of the first and third Congresses. His casting votes carried day's treaty into cfiect Henry A. .Muhlenberg, clergyman and states man, was a son of the ltev. Krnst, nnd for several years officiated as a clergyman at Heading, Pennsylvania; was in Congress from isay to IS3s, and was a candidate, of a portion of Democratic parly in Pennsylva nia for Governor in 1833, but was unsuccess ful. In 1S37 he decliiit'd tho secretaryship of the navy, al-o the mission to Russia, but accepted the position of minister to Austria, which was tendered (0 him in 1833. In IS 11 he was nominated as the Democratic candi date for ( lovcrnor, by a small majority over Francis K. Shiiuk, but died of apoplexy be fore the election. Shuiik was aterwards nominate d in his place and elected. Major General Peter Muhlenberg, the eld est ol the three sons of Henry Melchoir, was liorii October 1, 1710, at the Trappe, Mont gomery county, Pa. The three sons were sent to (ierm.tiiy to receive all tho advan tages of a thorough and complet"- edittation. fbe early theological training which young Peter had received around the hearthstone of his gifted father was likely to prove an inju dicious ami unreiiiimerative in vestment. He soon became tired of monotonous classics and German metaphysics, absconded from il.illc, and tor over a year wits a jolly high private in a crack rigiment of Imperial dra g 1011-. II is fast life, however, was brief, for he soon r. cros-ed the ocean and returning to the "still water, ami green p.i-tures" of the Trappe, received a solid education at home, and was prepare. d for service in the Swedish Lutheran church J lis denomination deem ing Fpisoopal ordination neces-aiy, bo went to Lngland in 1772, with ISUhup White, then also a candidate for holv orders, and they wero ordained at the same time bv the lib-hop of Loinlun. licjuriiing ouco more to his native land hu officiated as an Kpiscopal minister for several ycarsat Woodstock, Vir- tnia. At the inauguration of the revolution he exchanged his clerical robes for the uni form of a patiiot soldier. On entering his pulpit lor :l.c last time ho told his pniishon crs that there was a time for :.U things a time to punch ami a time to tight and now was the time to light. Alter services hu gracefully threw back his clerical robes, dis- tilnvcd a lull niiiiorm. He then calmlv and deliberately read Ids ciiniii.;..-iou as colonel, aim ordered somo iliummer boys ho lit. Id in rctrvo to beat up for uciuiis. Tlio whole alliiir was theatrical nt.d somewhat sensation al, but it had a magical 1 fleet, and the liou- cat parisbotieis ol Woodblock rallied in large numbers u tin utamlard ot the gallant oung commander. 1 hey loiniiel a i.ro.iiiucnt cle ment in 11 hnt was known a the Ucrm.ru icg intent, or eighth Virginia, a corps eminently distinguished eluring the icioliiliou for its dash and j5.1ll.1mry. His lii.,t campaigns were in Georgia and South Carolina, and his niasterlyskill andumlaiiiitcd bravery in their management elicited tlio highest commenda tion from Ucn Washington. Indeed, )ouug Muhlenberg was a particular Uvurito of the commander-in-chief, tho latter having great confidence in his coolness, decision and valor. In February, 1777, he was aiqiointcd a brig adier general in tliu revolutionary tinny , tiuel in the Autumn ot that year actively and val iantly iiarlicqialed in the memorable battle of llr.indywiiio and licnnanto'wn. In the campaign of 1778 he was present at Mon mouth, doing good service, and in 1770 com manded tho tescrve at the storming ol .Stony Point, In 1760, when General Leslie invad ed Virginia, Mulilcnbeig opjiosed him, hold at that time the chief command. When the subsequent inurement was maele by lien erals Arnold and 1 hiiliji ho was attached to the immediate coiiiuiand of ll.tiou Steuben, ami when Lord Coruwallis enicicd Virginia our gallant young Pcniisylvaniau was iie.t in command to General Lafayette, llu was also procut at the historic battle of York town, ciiiiiuiiiiidiiig on lhal occasion the dashing first llrigndc ol Light Infantry. It has been a-erlcel with some degree of coufi deiico that it uattbsieral Muhlenberg who oomiimiiiled the American stunning pally at YorkUiwn, tlio luiiiur of which position lias been attribtiteel by diU'ereul liisiuiiographcn of tho lluvidutioii to another person. lie this as it may, there is 110 disputation us to his dauntless courage, and the distinguished jsirt he jdayi il Ht the siege of Yorktown, At the termination of tho long ami oveiitlul war, when its dark shadows were transform ed into siie.imiiig sitiishiiii', and peace with her olive wand e ive safety, strcin.th.uud glo ry tj tin' new-born ltepuUb , our bronzed young hero who had exchanged tlio pulpit for the camp, sheathed his trusty sword with out n slain of dishonor upon its bright blade. At tho disbanding of the forces ho woro tho patmntt of a major general, nnd 110 knight of the olden lime, with ids shattered lanco and splintered spear, was moro justly entitled to meritorious recognition and promotion. Peace being formally announced, General Muhlenberg returned to Ids native state, and with thnt rctnarknblo power of tho adapta tion for which Americans nro proverbial, de serted the standard of Mars and devoted his mcrgics ami talents to the practical matters if quiet civil life. Men of ids intellectual "iilibrc, however, aro always restive in what ever njihcrc their lot is cast, nnd aroeldom contented with a reserve"iosltlonin themidst of exciting events. They yearn "for other worlds to conquer," and nro'iicvcr followers but always aggrcssivo lenders. General Muhl enberg immediately entered into political life and successfully filled several very high mil importaiit.State and natioual'iiosltions. Ho was first elected amctnbcr'of thostiprcme executive council of tho State, and subse quently in" 1785, was chosen vice president of tho Mate, at tho time Ucnjaniin LFranklin was president. On the. adoption of tho Fed eral Constitution ho was elected a member of the first Congress, nnd was'aftcrw irds re elected a member of the third and was nl.-o of tho sixth Cungrcss. In 1707 ho was ap pointed a presidential elector, and in 1S01 was elected United, States Senntorto repre sent tliu commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The latter position, however, ho resigned in I.S02, and was appointed by Mr. JetTerson to tho more lucrative, but perhaps less'honnra- bio position of supervisor of reventtofor tlio district of Pennsylvania. In' 1803' ho was appointed collector of the port of Philadel phia, which position" ho held aftho time of his death which occurred on tho.lst day of October, ISO, in tho sixtv-second ve.ar of his age, at bis country seat, near thcSchuyl- lll, 111 Montgomery, comity, Pa. General Muhlenberg, like the other'leading members of that prominent family,' was a strong ad herent of tho Democratic party and although severe partisan and unflinching personal and political friend of Mr. .Tetl'erson, was as iucoriuptablo in public as he was honest in private life. Ho discharged his duties well in all the numerous military and political distinctions heaped upon him, and was as firm 111 the Cabinet as ho was reliant in the field. lli'iglHiiii'H Drmiiiioiis. iV letter from Salt'Lako City to the Cin cinnati Qjmmcrcial, says : Speaking of new States, the record for the closo of 1S74 presents some curious contrasts between Colorado and Utah. Colorado has been settled sixteen years, Utah twentv- eight Yet the population of the former is about equal to that of Utah, nnd its assessed wealth is twice as.great. Thcro is one hotel in Denver worth more than any two squares in Salt Lake, deducting the Walker house (Gentile), and two'or three Gentile business houses. At least a score of private resi liences in Denver are each worth more than II the Louses of llrigham. Young in this city. True the mines of Utah havo yielded the past year about as much as those of Col orado, but they aro exclusively Gcntilo en terprises. Subtracting from the assessment all owned by Gentiles, and it will appear that the ninety thousand Mormons only'own one-fourth of the property of the 0110 hun diend thousand people, more or less, in Utah I c msidcr it a beautiful illustration of tho difference in result between tho Amorieon ind paternal style of organizing a Common wealth. For twenty vcars IlriMi rim's L'I hit. . . f s loin was the most complete paternal irov- erninent in the world.

As the church disciplino relaxes (and it is all the time gracing weaker) "this people" seems to bn lit tho mercy of every fraud that comi's along. There aro moro "magnetic healers," "test mediums."

At Morris, Grundy county, III., threo sa loon keepers ono woman nnd two men were arrested for selling liquor to minors. As uual in such cases, tho liquor sellers were lavish of their funds in nid of their un fortunate co-workers, and eminent counsel was employed in defenses of these destroyers of tho bodies and souls of tho rising genera tion. Hut tho proof of their guilt was so fully demonstrated thnt the, jury wero com pelled to prnnouuco them guilty, lion. J. M.

The penalty of this offense, fixed by tho Legislature, indicates that it considers tho crimo to bo of a serious character, lly tho law you may sell to men and worm n if they will buy. You have given your bond, and paid for your license to sell to them, and 110 ono has tho right to molest you in your legal business. Xo matter what the consequences may be, no matter what destitution and pov erty are produced by your selling according to law, you havo paid your money for this privilege, nnd you arc licensed to pursue your calling. Xo matter what families arc distracted nnd rendered miserable, 110 matter what wives are treated with violence, what children starve or mourn over tho degrada tion of a parent, your business is legalized and no 0110 may interfere with you in it. Xo matter what mother may agonize over the loss of a son, or sister blush for the shame of a brother, you havo a right to dis regard them nil and pursue your legal calling; you are licensed. You may fit up your place of business in the most captivating form ; you may finish it with tho most ele gant and costly equipments for your lawful trade; you may fill it with tho allurements and amusements; you may use all your arts to induce visitors; you may skillfully ar range and expose to view your choice wines and most captivating beverages ; you may then induce thirst by all contrivances, to produce a ravaging appetite for drink; and then you may supply that appetite to tho full because it is lawful ; you havo a license. You may nllow boys, almost children to frequent your saloon ; they may becomo witnesses of tho apparent satisfaction with which their seniors quad tho sparkling glass; you may bo schooling and training them for the period of twenty-one, when they, too, can participate, lor all this is lawful. You may hold the cup to the very lips ; but you must not let them drink that is unlawful. Hut, while you have all these privileges for tho money which you pay, this poor privi lege of selling to children is denied you. icre parents have a right to say, 'Leave my son to mo till tho law gives you a right to destroy him. Do not unticlpntu that fatal moment when I can assert no further pro tection. That will bo soon enough for me. for his mother, for his sister, for hi friends. mil the community to see him take tho road to his de.itli. liive him to us in childhood, it least, Let Us have a few years of his young lite, in which we may enjoy his inno cence, to repay us in some degree for tho love and care we have lavish? 1 upon turn.

As may be imagined tho delivery of such sentence produced considerable commo tion, being praised as tho bet temperance speech of the season IYiendt Ilevicur, There is a vast amount of truth in this pithy summary which tlio St, Louis liepub- licin makes of General Grant's six vcars of presidential service: "Ho lias established precedents which will vex us as long ns tho nation lives, and ho has set nu examplo which embraces all those blunders and crimes which tho ruler of a free country should avoid.
