It is of Jhese Hessians that another Radical" New England historian. Mr. Palfrey, pleas antly writes : "Hired slabbers as long as they were in arms, horse thieves as soon as they were beaten, they had nothing to claim at the hands of meekness itself." Such, un fortunately, is the German record of'our revolution; aud, if in the first crash of arms war's fiercest ravages should fall on that little circle of principalities, long since ab sorbed or presently doomed, of which Hess5 Casscl is the centre, there will be something not unlike poetic justice in the event. It was down the Weser that the Hessian mer cenaries floated on their way to America. It is true that oid Fritz of Prussia protested against this pitiful trade in men, but he did nothing to prevent it. He was bound hand aud foot by subsidies from Great Britian, and either cared not or dared not contravene her purposes.

The desigu was, of course, to ship the robes eastward ; but this was prevented by the vigilance of railway and steamboat officers. It appears in the course of the Ihra'd's narrative that the pestilence was communicated, in, one instau -c, to the In dians by a white man for spite, and in a:. other by their exhuming a mau who had died from the small-pox and stealing his grave clothes. In the latter instance Tf.O out of 1,900 members of the tribe died. In the other case the disease was communicated to the Piegans, B'ackfeet, Bloods and River Crows, aud produced terrible havoc among them.

A Horrible Outback. The village of Cortlandville. N. Y.. was disturbed Thurs day night by a party of young men who essayed to avenge the death of Mrs. Chris topher 11. Moore, who cast herself into the river near that village on Tuesday night and was drowned. It appeared at "the Coroner's inquest that Mrs. Moore's husband had b-en improperly intimate with a de prayed woman, living in the village, named Melissa Blye, aud tho verdict of the jury was that a knowledge of mich intimacy had rendered Mrs. Moore insane, and while in such mental condition she had committed suicide. A strong feeling of indignation arose against tho woman, aud a party of young men forced the doors of her house aud subjected her to a treatment of tar and feathers. She was first dragged to the street, where a promiscuous crowd of about two hundred had gathered, and there entiie ly disrobed. In this condition sho was taken through the streets to another part of the village, where tar and feathers were ap plied. She was then suffered to go her way, and the crowd dispersed. While this out rage was going on, she begged of seme members of the party to spare her life, and appealed to them as friends who had also known her intimately. The citizens are indignant at these outrages. Shocktso Murder js New York. Sat urday's World snya: The city was shocked yesterday -with the report of a horrible and mysterious murder committed in the heart of the fashionable quarter of the city. The victim was Mr. Benjamin Nathan, the well known stock broker, a geutlemau of very large wealth and high social position, and brother-in law cf Judge Cardozo. Ho was found lying dead in his bed-room, in his residence, at No. 12 West Twenty-third street, near Fifth avenue. His head was beaten in with five terrible blows, tho in strument of murder beiug a heavy iron bar known by ship-carpenters as a "dog." Mr! Nathan retired in perfect health ou Thursday uight, and the murder was not discovered until G o'clock yesterday morning. The most renmrkablo feature of the tragedy is that, though two sons of Mr. Nathan, with his house-keeper ami her sou slept in tho house, they heard no unusual noises during the uight. Mr. Nathan's watch and hw elry were missing nnd his safe was broken open. The theory of the murder is that tho assassin was concealed in tho house, and after killing and robbing the old gentleman quietly made his way into the street. The excitement over the affair has been intense.

Considerable excitement prevails in La grange, Oldham county Ky., about thirtv miles from Lewisville, in consequence of the very recent discovery of a vein of gold in a quarry used for obtaining stone for a turn pike road in the vicinity. In a few days tho news was spread among the neighbor hood, and multitudes flocked to the spot. A large field of oats in the immediate vicinity of the quarry was overrun by diggers and the tract, instead of being covered with way ing grain, is a scarred field of barren land, full of deep holes and pitfalls. For six months, about ten thousand miners in the Schuylkill coal region have been on a strike. During all that period they and their families, numbering perhaps twenty thousand more persons, have had to live on their past earniugs'or on tho funds of the association, whose rules bound them to the strike. At last they have yielded to the terms f the operators and work is ex pected to be resumed. There must have been a great deal of distress caused by this long period of idleness in the coal regions and we congratulate all parties that" it is about over.
