A BjIWK PaTINO INTEREST OX DEPOSITS.—A
London paper says there are rumors, as there have
been for some time, of an intention to establish in
London a very large discount and banking estab
lishment, on the principle of paying interest on
deposits. If this be done on a secure basis, it will
materially afiect the value of stock in the Bank of
England, by withdrawing a large portion of the
deposits. . *
Appointment bt tue Attorney General.—
Major Samuel H. Tate, to be Deputy Attorney
General for Bedford county.
Washington, Monday , Feb. 14p—A rumor is
circulated to-day, which if well founded, will re
lieve the administration members of Congress from
mny anxiety as to the.means of obtaining money
ifor the support of the war.
It is said that Mr.' Belmont, as agent of the
Rothchilds, has offered to take the sixteen million
loan on the terms proposed in Mr. Vinton’s bill,
and to pay one-half of the money in New York,
and the other half in Mexico.
Commodore Robert F. Stockton. —The Legis
lature of New Jersey have passed, with great
unanimity, resolutions complimenting the gallantry
and patriotism of Com. Stockton, and tendering to
him the thanks o/ the Legislature of his native
State.
Peace.— The New York Tribune or the 18th, has
a letter from its Washington coirespondent, dated
on the night of the 17th, which says:
« A Senator has received a letter from New Or
leans, announcing the arrival in that city from
Mexico. oLMaj. Van Buren with a Treaty of
Peace.” * V
The Federalistsare already pitchingUheir
pipes for another singing campaign. They set up
their notes on Thursday night, after the Clay meet
ing, at Castle Garden, New Fork, while_passing in
procession through Broadway. Bring -out the
-“Yaller Kivers” boys.
|p* The new Constitution of Illinois reduces the
annual cost of supporting the State Government
from $lOO,OOO to $-18,400.
IP* The Daily Orlenian, published at New Or
leans says'. 11 We are informed that the mortality
among those affected with the ship fever in the
Charity Hospital is frightful. The deaths daily are
reported to exceed in number those furnished diur
nally during the prevalence of the epidemic.”
IP*The Carlisle Volunteer has an able Article
against the -Free Banking Bill now before tht? Leg
islature, and justly remarks that "any Banking
System founded on any other basis than Gold and
Silver will never, answer the purpose.”
|p* The Lehigh Register says:
A resolution pissed the Senate, to amend the
Constitution of Pennsylvania, so as to provide tor
the election of Judges* of the Courts by the people,
by a vote of IS to 11. We have an idea that this
proposition will meet with popular favor.
-Took him at his Word. —A clergyman of
Miuiie, in possession of one ol the best Unitarian
parishes of the state, recently commenced preach
ing anti-Mexican war and political abolitionism.
Signs of disapprobation .were apparent among his
lieareis. Possessed more of stubbornness than ca
pacity, he soon after insulted his congregation and
the authorities of the state, by suppressing the proc
lamation of the governor for the annual thank -
giving, and reading to his audience the proclama
tion of the governor of Massachusetts lor thanks
giving appointed in that state. This created much
dissatisfaction. The parson's resignation of’ his
place soon followed, and very uncxpectedlyjnjiim
self and principal advisors, was accepted tvith great
unanimity.
.Shocking Inhumanity^
• The trial of one James Goodwin, for tiie murder
of his wife at Montreal, on the MtJth ult..discloses
a degree of brutality seldom reached by any crea
ture bearing the form, and claiming the character
of humanity. It seems that this man Goodwin,
-who had a family, a house and something of an
establishment, lor some reason which does not
clearly appear, turned his wife out of doors, and re
fused to allow her to enter the house again, dead
or alive. She was supposed to be partially deran
ged. and took refuge in a pig-pen near the house,
where she lived from November until February,
_when she starved and froze to death. We make
the following extracts from, the testimony given at
the Coroner's inquest:
Rev. F. S. Neve—Resided on the Ottawa, about
six miles from the residence of the prisoner. In
consequence of something which he had heard in
the month of December, IS-P>, he.believed that the
deceased was in a pig-pen, near the residence ol
her husband. Prisoner said he had not confined
her, but had turned her out of his liouse, and she
had gone to the pig-pen lierself—that she might
get out,as she got in—that she was very comfort
able, as she had plenty of straw, and that she re
ceived food from his family. Witness saw the bo
dy of deceased in a pig-pen, after her death. It was
horribly emaciated, and had on it only one garment,
i with a cap. and rags bound round the feet—there
was straw strewed over the pen. and a coverlet:
but no bed whatever.
The only door to the pen was a hole about three
feet high, where he supposed the animals were ac
customed to go in. The hole was open; and there
were other open jholes. The weather had been ve
ry severe, and there was no lire. On the removal
of the rags from one of the feet, part of the foot
was found to be gone, as if cut oil' with a coarse
axe. There were bruises on her face, which might
have been caused by her turning on her face. The
body was drawn up. and the wrists clutched a tin
vessel, which would contain about half a pint.—
Prisoner did not attend the inquest; but pursued
his ordinary avocations. He told the prisoner,
when he saw him before the death of the
that if be \youltf take care of his wife
,anJ deceased Kad keen married twenty years; tliey
had seven children, of whom the youngest Was
twelve-years the 20th of last December. Deceased
came into the pen the first week in November, and
•died the first week in February, bhe continued
there till she died. Jfhe did not get into the house
during all that time—when she went to the door
he ordered her off. That was once only. He told her
to go off out of his sight, for she had denied him
being her lawful husband. Prisoner allowed de
ceased to be fed by her children. They used to go.
into her at* first; but afterwards she did not; but.
sent word by thd children to enquire after her feet,
which witness knew were frozen. When the chil-.
dren told prisoner of her feet being bad, he made
plasters and sent them out
When the diseased went into the pig-pen she
had a good goicn until a nice quilted sicirt and a cap.
but nothing else. Witness afterwards took her a
quilt, and then, as was complaining of the cold,
.gave her another. Deceased was led the night be
, fore she died. She ; had a teapot and a tin with
ibread and meat, and the children took the food, and
;brought the. vessel back again. When the children
•took her breakfast iri the morning their mother
was dead/ HVitness was neither ruler nor gover
npr of the house, and did not like to insist upon
anything, and prisoner, refused to admit deceased in
the cold weather when they expected her to die.
John Alex. Sturgeon. M. D.—He was requested
. in February last to* go and see the dead hotly of the
i woman in the pig-pen. He had to creep in on his
hands and knees with great -difficulty, in conse
quence of an accumulation of substances within;
The smell was so offensive he was obliged to retire. 1
Having had the roof removed, he found some straw,
under that a clean quilt, and under that a quilt or
cloak. She was crouched up with her knees up to
•the ebest; the body, was frozen into a complete
mass of ice, up to the middle, and the arms were
• quite rigid, being stiffened by death and frost
' - She could not have eaten for thirty-six hours—
the indications were those of starvation' for a con
siderable time. The frost would have been enough
Jo kill her; but it had not time to do so: death
was caused by a determination, of blood to the ex
tremities,'which was induced by exposure to cold
And starvation. The pigpen was seven feet square,
and where the woman lay only 2 feet .4 inches
high. ,
The wretch of a husband was acquitted of raur-
mansl^ushter.'

instance where our merchant ships have been hoar
ded by British cruisers under the plea of searching

African coast, but treat it with as much indignity
as they could the black Hag of the pirates. Shall

thing equal to Dr. Sherman’s Medicated Lozenges
for the relief of her subjects. They have now
been before the public fur more than five years, and;
there are no preparations like them to be found fori
searching out disease, and banishing it from the
human frame. Worms find no refuge or hiding

Sherman’s All-Healing Balsam.
MRS. ATTREE, the wife of Wm. H. Attree,
Esq., was given up by Dr. Sewall of Washing
ton, Drs. Roe and McCleflan of Philadelphia, Dr.
Roe and Dr. Mott of New York. Her friends all
thought she must die. She had every appearance
of being in -consumption, and was so pronounced
by her physicians. Sherman’s Balfltm was given
and it cured ■her. ’ /
Mrs. Garrabrantz, of Bull’s Ferry, was also cured
of consumption by this Balsam when all other rem
edies failed to give relief —she was reduced to a
skeleton. Dr. A. C. Castle, Dentist, 281 Broadway,
has witnessed its effects in several cases where no
other medicine afforded relief—but the Balsam op
erated like a charm. Dr. C. also witnessedrits won
derful effects in curing Asthma, which it never fails
of doing. Spitting Blood, alarming as it may be, is
effectually cured by this Balsam. It heals the rup
tured or wounded blood vessels, and makes the
lungs sound again.
Rev. Henry Jones, 108 Eighth avenue, was cured
of cough and catarrhal affections of 50 years stand
ing. The first dose gave him more relief than all
the other medicine he had ever taken. Dr. L. J.
Beals, 19 Delancy-strect, gave it to a. sister-in-law
who was laboring under consumption, and to ano
ther sorely afflicted with the Asthma. In both cases
its effects were immediate, soon restoring them to
comfortable health.
Mrs. Lucretia Wells, 85 Christie-street, suffered
from Asthma .42 years. Shermin’s Balsam relieved
her at once, and she is comparatively well, being
able to subdue every attack timely use of this
medicine. This indeed is the great remedy for
coughs, colds, spitting blood, liver complaints, and
all the affections of the throat, and even Asthma
and Consumption.
Price 25 cents and $1 per bottle.

TO those who intend visting Philadelphia to make
purchases, it is important to know where it can j
be done to the best advantage. Such as are about j
to buy HATS for their o.wn heads, or by the* Case, j
to sell again, are respctfully informed that there'is
an Establishment at No. 1 STRAWBERRY ST.,
on the second lloor, conducted by E. DA MAI, ou.
the Cash System entirely, where HATS of the best
materials, ami of the latest fashion , can positively
be obtained at from one to two dollars less than at
the showy and extravagrant Stores in the fashionable
streets of the ! city, where rents are from oneto thtoe
thousand dollars per annum !
At this Establishment, on account of locating
himself in a by-street, and up stairs, the proprietor
procures his store at the low rent of one hundred'
dollars. The vast difference in the profits which
there must be between the two descriptions of
stores, every one Can answer !
A visit is earnestly solicited, as it is certain no
one will ever regret doing so.
Strawberry-Street is the first above Second,
'mining froth Market to Chcsnut Street.
