fixtoc.xtsto -Tasonntr.—The following horrible tale is told by the. Springfield . (Mo.). Advertiser, which receives it from a correspondent at Ozark, Missouri : " On Tuesday evening last, a gentleman who lays he lives near the mouth of the James, in Stone county, on his return from Springfield home, to which place ho had been on business connected with the Land office, was overtaken on the road between Collier's old place and the bead of Crane, by three villains, who manifested a disposition to stop his progress. He became alarmed, and attempted to make his escape from them. They gave him chase, and his horse becoming jaded, anti discovering that they had got ahead off him, he turned off from the road. Seeing they were about to overtake him, he aban doned his horse, and attempted to make his escape on foot. He Waseoon overtaken, however, his throat cut, and his pockets rifled, and then dragged into thicket, in which he was endeavoring to conceal himself before he wao overhauled. Here he was abandoned, supposed to be dying. But he survived until Wednesday morning, when one of the wretches returned and cut his throat again. He hid crawled to the road which leads from the neighborhood of Porter's over to Kimber• tinge', on James, below Yokeman's Mill, and was tracked by his blood, it is supposed. Kimberling had started from home on some business, and came tip just at the time running off the villain before he had finished his work. Mr. Kimberling was perfectly horrified at the spectacle before him. The trachea was cut off, so that articulation was pre vented. Mr. Kimberling galloped his horse back to Alexander Berry's, where the people were assem bled for meeting, got help, and returned as quickly as possible. While he was gone, the fiend again returned, and finding him not dead, told him he should not live to give evidence against him. The poor fellow, apprehending the murderers' return had got out his knife, and intended to try to defend himself. .His knife was discovered—a rock was dashed against his head which stunned him—his throat was again cut with his own knife, and the work was supposed to be finished. However,• , the . ways ofFrovidence are inscrutable and past fnding out." Mr. Kimberling returned in a few minutes after,the murderer had left him, with several ofhis neighbors. They succeeded in getting him to a house, where Mrs. Nlessenger stitched up, as well as she could, the horrible cut, so that he was able to give the information above detailed. The poor fellow may get wetl ; he seemed to be as comfort able as could be expected ! swallowed water well, and breathed through the natural orifice. Fortu nately he had but little money, and they did not get that, he having placed it in a side pocket in hie coat,'and‘they tailed to examine all his pockets. We have since learned that the name of the inju red man is John Russel. THRILLING CA6UALTY AT NIAGARA FALLB.—On Monday evening of last week, three men—two of them, named John Able and Andrew Hannaman, and the other a stranger—got adrift in a small boat just above the frightful abyss, over which the two latter were buried, Sod instantly dashed to atoms. Able, when near the verge of the lbaming cataract, succeeded in reaching a rock, to which he clung till about six &cloak oirTuesdity evening. The anx iety of the people on shore to rescue the unfortu nate Min from his perilous situation was must in tense throughout the day. But tithe feelings of the spectators were aroused to such a pitch, whatmust have been the thoughts of him who almost certain of eventually becoming a prey to the roaring tor rent 7 every scheme that human ingenuity could deyise was resorted to; lifd boats were brought from Buffalo. and provisions were floated to him on Mite . Late in the afternoon he succeeded in pla cing himself on one'of these rafts, and was on •the point of stepping from it filito a lifeboat, when to the dismay and horror of the sfrectators on shore, the boat came in collision with the raft with so much violence, as to pitch poor ABLE into the wa ter. Still undaunted, he struck out boldly for a small island in the vicinity; but the current over powered his already exhausted physical energies, and, after thus desperately struggling for life, and tenaciously clinging for twenty houra to a slippery rock, which:itseif could scarcely withstand the im petuous force of the stream, the victim was swept 'lnto eternity. One wild, piercing shriek, and all was over. PROTESTANT AND ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCHES IN THE UNITED STATES, AND THEIR CAPACITY.—The census of 1850 shows the following as' the number and capacity of the Churches in the United States: Methodist, churches, 12,467; worship.: pers, 4,209,333 Baptist, churches 8791; worshippers, 3,130,678 Presbyterian and the four related churches, viz ; Dutch Reformed, Congregational, Lutheran, and German Reformed churches, 8112; worshippers Episcopalians, churches 1422; wor shippers, Total Protestant churches 30,482 worshippers Roman Catholic churches 1112 ; worshippers Excess of Protestant Churches 29,370. Excess of Protestant worshippers 91,049,686 From the foregoing it appears that there are twenty-nine thousand more Protestants churches, and eleven millions more Protestant worshippers than of Roman Catholic, a numerical preponder ence that will no doubt surprise many of our read ers. REV. Dn. Ives.—The statement that the Rev. Dr. Ives, late Bishop of the Diocese of North Caro. line, was about to b..: ordained a priest in the Cath olic Church, and that the Pope had informed him that he must separate from his wile, is positively contradicted by the Freeman's Journal. As regards the separation, the. Journal says such a thing is not likely to find lavor anywhere in the Catholic Church. The Journal also publishes an extract of a letter of Dr. Ives to the Rev. Dr. Forbes, of New York, in which he alleges that an account had been made up against him in North Carolina, .and aprocess served upon his library and .Xrs. Ives' per sonal articles left behind in that State. lie further says: 1 ask in this life is to hdve my dear urife side by side with me at the altar, and some situation however low, however obscure, where 1 can keep her above positive want." A MELANCHOLY TALL.--The Chicago Tribune in forms us that five unknown persons, who were bu ried as such, killed by the collision last April at the junction 01 the Illinois Central and Northern Indiana roads, were a tinnily by the name of Kul log, moving from the State of New York to Minne sota. They were a man, his wile, and three lads. An infant, taken unhurt irom among the ruins, it has now been ascertained, belonged to the same family. The two elder sons with a grown upclaugh ter are living in Minnesota. They have been on to lllidoi and have visited the graves of the family lhat were killed on their way to juin therh, and have taken their little sister away with them.

At his residende in Ephrata twp., on the evening of the 15th inst., Mr: Joseph Gorges, aged 51 yesrs months and 14 days. Mournful as this bereavement is to the friends of the deceased, it gives great consolation to know that in his dying moments he was supported by the hopes of our holy religion. He was for many years an esteemed member of the Reformed church.— While with full confidence in the everlasting cove nant he was enabled to look forward to the hour of his dissolution without a fear or regret; confi ding his bereaved family to the care of Him who had redeemed him, he raised his voice in songs of praise and thankfulness. Counseling his children, and bidding his dear wife and friends a last fare well, with that resignation and calmness which but the true christain can know. His light is still shining, and we trust that under the blessing of God it will lead many an inquiring soul to follow him in the way of lifd. Shed not your tears, dear friends, for me:; Calmly I've sailed o'er life's troubled sea, Now I've reached my long sought prize, Which lies in Heav'n beyond the skies. There with patience I long to meet You all around Christ's mercy scat; There shall we our voices sweetly raise, In songs of everlasting praise. S. . THE MARKETS. NEW YORK CATTLE MARKET. -July 23.

Doors open on Friday at 71, o'clock P. M., on Saturday at 21 and 71- o'clock P. M. Performance will commence half an hour after opening. Admission---Boxes 25 cts., Reserved seats 50 cts. Children under 10 years of age wlil be admitted to the reserved seats at half price. This Colossal Exhibition is one of the most novel affairs ever gotten up. It is the result of individual enterprize, and was formed at the expense of $120,- 000. The Entertainments are of a purely classical character, differing entirely from anything ever wit- rimed in this country. An idea of their extent can be gained, when the public are informed, that One Hundred and Sixty-three male and female artistes and six auxiliaries, are necessary to give to and effect to the various PAGEANTS, PROCESSIONS, and TABLEAUX, whilst the entire stud is composed of 200 Imported Horses, Trained Ponies, and educated animals. The HIPPODROME is the largest pavilion ever built, containing ample accommodation lot 6000 Spectators, and is so constructed as to be cool in warm weather, and comfortable at a cooler degree of temperature. This is an advantage that no other Pavilion Is said to possess. During the evening, it will be illuminated with gas, futnished from a patent apparatus, of aufficient capacity to'supply the im mense amount required for the purpose. The entree into town will be made in the early part of the day, and observed by a GRAND PROCESSION, led by Post's celebrated Bras Band, composed of over 20 musicians. Then will follow the company mounted, afterwards the long line of chariots, cars, vans, &c.,, &c., the whole forming a collossal and unique display. The performances being new in a great measure to the majority of persons, it perhaps will not be out ofplace to particularize few of the most prominent, although we hannot give them in detail. The full par ticulars will be afforded by the descriptive sheets, bills, pamphlets. lithographs, &c., &c. The best historical authors—Homer, Anthon, Goldsmith, Hume,Rollin, Pindsr and others, in their various works give full descriptions of the beauties of the Grecian and Roman Hippodromes. The sports selected for this Exhibition are of foul kinds, viz: the Olympian, Pythian, Namean, and Isthmian ; and will be presented in THE ARENA, ON THE COURSE, IN THE STADIUM, and on the TILTING GROUND. • 1 The GranilaPrensentation will commence with a Triumphal Roman Procession,composed of the King, Queen, Squires, Ladies of Honor, and Lords of the Royal Household, attended by their armour bear ers, vassals, slaves, courtiers, &c., &c. Then will come the meeting of the Knights and Champions on the Tilting Ground, known as the " Field of the Cloth of Gold !" During this scene a fair and true representation of the TOURNAMENT OF OLDEN TIMES will be given, together with a deadly Shield and , Sword Combat, concluding with the exciting CAROUSAL, the JAVELIN SPORTS, and the Lan cing of the Head of the Saracen. The LYCURGUS OFFERING, a triple chariot race, two horses abreast of the Cars of Juno: by Angeline, Katarina and Evalin, a beautiful scene of the Hippodrome De Greque, first introdu ced and patronized by the ancient Lawgiver. I,A PERCHE EQUIPOISE, by the French brothers, is one of the most complicated and startling feats ever witnessed. It is accomplished by one of the artistes balancing a pole 21) feet high, upon which the other ascends, and at the dizzy height goes through a scene of graceful movements, that en chant, terrify, and astonish all who beho:d them. LA COURSE GREQUE; by the Five French Girls : Rosa, Pauline, Amelia, Gertrude, and Marie; a scene of wi,d excitement, first done by ladies in the Athenian Amphitheatre. In this scene the iauics appear mounted on thorough bred charges, and at the tap of the bell, go off at full speed, each one striving assiduously to win the prize, known to the ancients as the Chaplet of Beauty. The WAR CHARIOTS, four horses harnessed abreast to splendid cars will be driven, at the top of their speed around the course. The grand beauty of this scene, beggars description. The steeds loam ing and dashing, the drivers urging them on, the audience shouting, and the clarion sounding above all the din, aJ. once fills our mind with a strange uncontrolable feeling. We imagine ourselves "once more in an age when the exciting scenes of the Hippodrome were National Features, and claimed their vota ries from the Tribunes, the Senate Chamber and the Forum. The Menage Exercises, given is this Exhibition are paramount to any ever witnessed. The horses were all imported by the Proprietor at an immense expense, and trained expressly in Paris and Berlin, for MD'LLE MINNA, Premiere Equestrienne from the Royal Hippodromes of Berlin and Vienne, and the Cirque Nationale, Paris. She will gave the honor of introducing as fine a stud of trained horses as the best menege in the world can claim. Included in the number will be found the Leaping Horses Hercules and Napoleon and the dancing steeds Empress and Jupiter. For the purpose of relieving the continued succession of splendor the Hippodrome affords, the man ager deemed it necessary to introduce, by way of variety a "little piece of humor," occasioally. He therefore has prepared a French Equestrian Pantomime, called BERTRAND. Founded however, on the vagaries of Robert Macaire, and Jaques Strop, in France. This scene will develope some of the finest pantomimic talent ever witnessed, and the peculiar revolving, notrevolting situations of the fancy when doomed by the gens (Parmes, will be found particularly amusing. A series of ariel miracles on the corde volante, by that celebrated American artiste, for several years the wonder of Europe, and the principal star at Franconi's, H. W. FRANKLIN. The Poses by this gentleman are the " poetry by motion." He concludes by throwing a Somersault from the-rope, and alighting on the ground, at a distance of 90 feet. The STEEPLE CHASE, a royal sport of " Metris England," by the five Amazons, Madlles. Eloise, Amine, Josephine, Margueretta, and Julie; introducing the stud of English Fox Hunters, bounding over hudles, harries, and 5 barred fences. This scene is one of the most graceful, though arduous feats of Equestrianism. It is but littie seen in this country, although English ladies of rank aspire to be mis tresses of the Hurdle chase. This performance will undoubtedly, be extremely interesting to the "fair daughters of America," for whose instruction and gratification it is specially introduced. • The Trial of the POSTILLION; a Triple Quadruple Tandem Act, requiring twelve horses. Each artist riding two and driving two, a novel feat---one of the prettist features of the modern Hippodrome LA COURsE DES SINGES, a scene travestic of the Turf. By a troupe of Monkies, Apes, Baboons, attired as jockies; and riding the Lilliputian Ponies, after the style of the English Sportsman. Pheaton driving the horses of the Sun, and offering to Olympian Jupiter, in which one Artiste will ride and man age Twenty four Horses. This feat supersedes all attempts hitherto made by Equestrians, in fact it was never attempted, let albne accomplished, out of Welch's Parisian Hippodrome. The other novelties offered in each entertainment, are too voluminous to warrant publication in the 'columns of n journal. To the " posters" must we refer the people. But there is one more that mus not be overlooked ; that is the scene from the Italian Corso, and entitled the Flight of the LIBERTY STEEDS. In it 12 fine proud and splendid horses are let free on the track. The boundings, gambols, and racing of these beautiful animals, charm all beholders, and draw forth the undivided plaudits of ap p.obation from all who witness them.

This Paint will stand any climate, without crack or blister hardens by exposure, thus niakiug;in time an enamel of stone, protecting wood from de cay, and Iron and other metals Irom rust and cor rosion. The- Paint differs from the so-called Mineral Paints of the day, which are princip.,lly Ochres and Clays colored, and are entirely worthless. Silver's Plastic Paints are purely Metalic, con taining no Mamba or Clay. 'I hey are levigated finely, mix readily with Lin seed Oil, (without the trouble of grinding.) and flow under the brush as freely as the best White Lead'. These Paints excel all others in body or cover ing properties, one pound of which will cover as much surface, as two pounds of White Lead. There are four natural colors, viz : Black or Slate, Bzown, Olive and Chocolate. Directions.—This Paint flows readily under the brush, and its covering, property is increased by using it mixed as thickly as possible with pure Lin secd Oil; as the . Paint is the lasting or protecting body and the Oil simply the medium or agent in spreading it.

I give you with pleasure my full and hearty recommendation of it as a preventiye of Fire communicating from Chim neys, or front adjoining buildings. The Paint which you put on my roofs, has now become as hard as slate, and I feel as securefrom Fire, in this direc tion, as is possible. A few weeks alter the roofs had been painted, I made an experiment on two or three shingles by placing them in the furnace under the boilers; the result was, that the portion uncov ered was entirly consumed, while the painted part was apparently sound, though upon examination the wood was found to be charred; the Paint how ever was firm and but little blistered. I consider this as severe a test as your Paint can be put to, and under the circumstances I , dci not hesitate to commend it as an invaluable preventive against Fire.
