T e St. Lc-> e MuT'ler. —The St. Louis Re
publican, of May 19th, -ays: T.,e passengers
on me steamer Rocket, after the dreadful oc
currence of toe murder of Robert M Webb,
of Lewistown, Pa., on Wednesday night last,
met on hoard that vessel, and passed a series
of resolution* on the subject. As yet, we
believe, no clue ha* been found to the mur
derers; a* yet, no reward has been offered for
the apprehension of the murderers, though
the reputation of our city may be affected by
such acts of violence, unie** some effort is
made to stay them. It is hardly possible that
the murderers were not known at some of the
drinking haus-s in that neighborhood, and a
large reward and proper effort* would scarci
y t vi! t bring a>jut the identity of the mis
creants.
Pittsburgh, Judge McClure ha?

the rule should bo fully applied throughout
the State, the Lumber of lawyers would be
greatly diminished.

BROAD TOP COAL.
Notwithstanding there are individuals in
terested in and owning large tracts or bodies
of coal lands in the Broad Top country, they
have never made it appear to onr blacksmiths
that a bituminous coal which produces-the
mast coke per bushel is cheaper than the
Allegheny coal previously and still used,
which does not by fifteen per cent, produce
the same amount cf coke. I should like to
bear from some of these gentlemen why
Bruad Top coal is not more extensively used
here for smelting purposes instead of Alle
gheny.
From Mexico. —We dates frcm Mexico to
the sth Inst There is no official information
of the execution of CoL Crabb and ais fiitboJ
tera, but the former accounts of the utter
rout* of the invaders are confirmed. Orders
had been issued u> bring the prisoners t*
Mexico for thai, and it was believed to be the
intention to clear them if possible. Letters
sav that 560 more filibusters had entered Ar
iz o a la. and were encamped in the regie* tf
Tueston.
Another conspiracy to revolutionize Mexico
was discovered on the 29th nin The p. an
was to seize the person of President Gom-on
fort and then attack the city. Cap:. Noguera,
a protege of Comonfort'i, was to a
dagger into his patron's breast, and bis death
was to be the signal for the attack. The ring
leaders in this conspiracy had aii beet arrest
ed, and it was rumored that they would be
beheaded. Others had also been arretted,
said te be concerned in the affair. It was
reported that ex-M:nister Aqailar was also
ins plica ted.
From Sicaragua. —A letter from a Wash
ington correspondent of the New York Times
indicates that active movements are on foot
to Gen. Walker from bis poaiticn ia
Nicaragua, or if it be too late for this, to take
poaeess;. n of the Transit route. The rumor
of W a.k-r's eseap-e from Rivas is generailv
discredited. At the last ad vices be still held
that place, and it Ls confidently predicted by
his friends that he would be able to hold it
for '.. me week- or even m nths fcnger. But
it is said that 293 men left San Francisco for
his relief in the Ocean Bird, and we were told
several days since, on good aath rity, that
500 more would socn be ready to go from
New Orleans. We do not attach much im
portance to these statements, although if the
steamer next due should bring new? that
W ilker still h.ids out, there is Tery likely to
be an ther vig rous attempt for bis relief.
