Letter from Blouson.
WASHINGTON CITY, March 12, 1853,
Mn. EDITOII.+ - You tee I am here and I suppose
you are than as usual. Pennsylvania is well rep
resented at the capital of the nation; perhaps there
are here now avntiny from the Old Keystone, as
all -other States an the Union combined. This pf
course arises from our people being more patriotic;
and also from the fact that Geri. PrERCE looks upon
every man from Pennsylvania as a kinsman. Oh,
what loving relatives he's got; and yet strange to
say, he has not spoken to a dozen of them for'the
last week; but that makes no difference. 1 see our
present worthy .Surveyor General BRAwLEY—Ex
Governor Poureit, Adjutant General KEENAN, COI.
BLACK, and many others. I was in FonnEr's of
fice yesterday, and found the "table in a roar" at
some of the true sparkling wit of the gallant
Black. Whilst present, he perpetrated the follow
ing: Gentlemen, said he, is it possible to take a
quantity from an' amount and leave more than
there was before. Several Senators said it was im
possible—could not . not be demonstrated either
mathematically, syl lecgistical Iy or otherwise. Here
it is, said the Col. :You take the sl:in off a bear
and is'nt he mare bare than he was before. Is'nt
-he one on 'em !
On Thursday, I had the pleasure of hearing Judge
Dountsss deliver a speech, animadverting , upon the
un-American Nicaraugua treaty of ;ions M. Cis`y•
TON. It was a most masterly efbrt and elicited
much approval from the gallery. The Judge was
eloquent in his delivery; and 1 take it upon me to
say, that thousands will read that speech with de
light. His vindication of Mr. Poi and Mr: Bu-
CILINAN was Masterly and' conclusive; and poor
Cr..& - rrorisat there twitching and squirming in his
feat, as if he had been thrown naked upon a thorn
hedge.
It appeals to be generally conceded that Mr. Bu-
CNANAN will receive the mission to England; and
there is but one opinion in regard to such a selec
tiou—namely, that no better appointment could be
made; and that no man is better able to retrieve
our lost national character than he. The President
and his Cabineooold a business conference every
morning, and continue in session until 1 o'clock.
The Senate hold an executive session daily lo act
upon executive business.
Col. FORNET, who has been quite ill, is noW con
valescent, and gets to his office about an hour each
day. It is astonishing how popular the Col. is with
all classes. MCKEAN his former partner in the
Pennsylvanian. ,is also here, and a more congenial
compauion aud high toned gentleman I have yet to
find. In haste, BE,UNSON.
Horrible Murder.
It becomes our painful duty to record a double
murder, in the' district of Southwark, attended
with circumstances of unparallelled atrocity. The
dreadful tragedy'created the most intense excite
men tin the district in which it was perpetrated,
and crowds were collected in the neighborhood the
entire day, notwithstanding the unfavorable state
of the weather. 'The victims were two married sis
ters, named Hannah Shaw and Ellen Lynch natives
of Ireland, the first about 40 years old, and the
other about 35 years. They resided in the second
story of No. 260 Federal street, on the south aide,
a few doors abcoie Seventh, the other portion of the
premises being in the occupanCy of John Carroll
and wife. On Thursday night Mr. and Mrs. Car
roll attended a ball, in Broad street, and according
to the best information, were there all night. Mrs.
Carroll returned to her house about 7 o'clock yes
terday morning, ald upon opening the window of
the front room, first floor,
the bodies of the mur
dered women were found lying within a few feet of
each other, their heads both in the same direction,
towards the east. Mrs. Lynch was in her night
clothes, the other was dressed in her ordinary
clothing. The alarm was given and numbers were
soon drawn to the spot. The Coroner was sent for
and early reached the scene, and with the assis
tance of Lieutenant Clark, Of the Southwailt police
anethis officers commenced an investigation of the
horrible affair. Ih the course
. of the day every fact
and circumstance was developed which tended to
throw light upbn the mystery. Several arrests were
made by the police force, among them that of a
certain Arthur,Spring, who had visited the husband
of Mrs. Lynch, before he left for New York, which
he did a few days hgo, and who had a quarrel with
John Carroll, 'the principal tenant of the house, on
Tuesday night last. A young man, named Ryan,
a nephew of the 'murdered woman, was also arrest
ed, but only because he had visited the house,
and not front I any suspicious circumstances
that attached to him. From all the facts it would
seem that the object orthe murderer was plunder,
for the trunk of Mrs. Lynch was broken open, and
the contents abstracted therefrom. • There is proof
that it contained from one to two hundred dollars
in gold. Beside the trunk the point of a dirk was
found, which had been used to open the trunk.—
Though the murdered women both were found in
.the front room, the great struggle had evidently
been in the back room, first floor, for there was
considerable blood upon the wait and floor, and
several articles or clothing discovered there were
saturated with blood. Near the stove, a hole, five
or six inches in diameter, was burnt in the floor,
as though an effort had been made to set the place
on Sre.—Philadelphia News.

CONSUMPTION.
O _
F all the numerous medicines extant, (and
some of them valuable) for the cure of pul
monary complaints, nothing have ever been found
which could compare in its effects with this prep
aration. Others cure sometimes, but at all times
and in all diseases of the lungs and throat where
medicine can giva relief, this will do it. It is
pleasant to take, and perfectly safe in accordance
with the directions. We do not advertise for the
information of those who have tried it but those
who have not. Families that have known its value
will not be without it, and by its timely use, they
are secure from the danserous consequences of
Coughs and Celds which neglected, ripen into fatal
consumption:
The Diploma of the Massachusetts Institute was
awarded to this preparation by the Board of Judges
in September 1847; also, the Medals of the three
great Institutes of Art, in this country ; also the
Diploma of the Ohio Institute at Cincinnati, has
been given to the CHERRY PECTORAL., by their
Government in consideration of its extraordinary
excellence and unseTuiness in curing affections of
the Lungs and Throat.

perience of the eminent Physicians of the Port and
City of ST. JOHNS, May 8, 1851.
Dr. J. C. Ayer,—Five yearn trial of CHERRY

in this section, are peculiarly liable.

nor do I know how a better remedy can be made
for the distempers of the Throat and Lungs.

IMILICI
SUNBURY , Jan. 29th, 1851
Dr. Ayer :—ln the month of July last I was at
tacked by a violent diarrhma in the mines of Cali
fornia. I ret , rued to San Francisco in hope of re
ceiving benefit from a change of climate and diet.
My diarrma ceased, but was followed by a severe
cough—and more soreness. I finally started for
homei but received no benefit from the voyage.—
My cough continued to grow worse, and when I
arrived in New York, I was at once marked by my
acquaintances as a victim of consumption. I must
confess that I saw no sufficient reason to doubt
what my friends all believed. At this time I com
menced taking your trOy invaluable medicine with
little expectation of deriving any benefit from its
use. You would not receive these lines did I not
regard it my duty to state to the afflicted, through
you, that my health, in the space of eight months,
is }'ally restored. I attribute it to the use of your
Cherry Pectoral. Yours truly,

Dear sir .—Feeling mat I have been spared from

the providence of God, I will take the liberty to'
express to you my' gratitude.
A cough of the alarming symptoms of Consump

like hope, when my physicianbrought,me a buttle
of your '' Pectoral." It seemed to afford immedi
ate relief, and now in a few weeks time has resto
red me to sound health. If it will do for others
what it has done for me, you are certainly one of
the benefactors of mankind.
Sincerely wishing you every blessing, I am
