..AdsastorsraTtom—The Montgomery (Alabama )
Journal of the 6th ult., says :—"A correspondent
gives us the full particulars of the assassination of
Mr. Alpheus Jones by Dr. Miller, at Barns' pre
cinct, mentioned briefly a few weeks since:
"One of the most bloody deeds on record was
committed by the licentious and unprincipled
wretch, W. D. L. Miller, on the person of
Mr. Alpheus Jones, a respectable citizen of this
county. Said Millet had, for some months, been
in the employment of said Jones, and on the night
of the sth of June last, Jones' wife left his couch
and crept softly to that of Dr. Miller, to which
place Jones loon followed her and attempted to
• drag her out of beds but, while - doing this, Miller
cruelly stabbed and chopped him with a huge knife,
which is supposed to have been concealed about
the bed. After receiving many death dealing strokes
from this mid night assassin, Jones, with his en
trailsin hikhand, fled to the house of his neighbor,
Mr. Supple; to which place he was pursued by
Mrs. Jones and Miller, who had a double barrelled
gun. Fortunately Jones who was judicious enough
to abandon the, road and take the wood; reached
there before them, and fell exhausted in the door
just as they arrived at the gate. Not being allow
ed entrance they both returned to Jones' house.—
After ransacking the house for Jones' money, (about
$400,) but which, during, their absence, had been
secured by Jones' mother an aged and decrepid lady,
Miller mounted his i _ horse and took flight. Mr.
Jones had lain in a Eopeless and deplorable condi
tion at the house of Mr. Supples ever since until
his death.on Friday last. Miller escaped."
COMMITTED TOR Forwent.— On Friday last, Con
stables Keen and Nagle apprehended a young man,
who gave his name as, J. J. Uhrick, and took him
before Alderman Miller, charged with forgery.--
After a hearing, he was committed to stand a trial
at our next Quarter Sesssions, which commences
on Monday next. From what we learn, it appears
that a man by the name. of Shoop, residing in this
place, has a brother, a doctor, living in Hummels
town, Dauphin county, upon whom this Uhrick
was carrying on a ganie of deception, by writing
letters in his brother's name, representing that he
was sick, (which was not the case,) and obtaining
money from him at different times. Finally our
Postmaster having suspicion that something was
wrong, and -that blame might be attached to the
Department, he was arrested as above. From in
quiry, it appeirs that this is the same personage,
who attempted to amuse our citizens last winter,
with the humbuggery of the "spiritual rappings,"
and was detected just before the performance com
menced, by some wag cutting a thin wire, which
extended from the ceiling into a drawer in a table,
where it was attached to a small hammer, which
was 'to produce the wonderful spirit rappinc , a.—
When asked why he did not.go on with the "sh ow,"
he replied, that in consequence of the cloudy weath
er the spirits would'nt answer, consequently the
performance was indefinitely postponed.—Reading

' INTRODUCTION Or FRENCH MERINO INTO WEST
ERN PENNSYLVANIA.—We observe by - one of our
Western exchanges that Dr. G. S. Hayes, of Alle
gheny has imported during the present year in con
nection with Solomon W. Jewett of Middlebury,
Vermont, one hundred and twelve french Merino
ewes and four bucks—of which flock. Dr. Hayes re
ceived for his share twenty-eight ewes and two
bucks—costing him here something over three th ou
sand dollars! They cost per head some twenty
five dollars passage from France to New York, and
:eight dollars a head from New York to Pittsburg.
These !sheep are something finer than any before__
imported to this country—having been selected
more with a view to the fineness of the staple than
the largeness or weight of the fleece. The ewes
averaged about 120 pounds weight and the bucks
200 lbs. The Dr. sold this year's French Merino
clip of wool, unwashed, at 50 cents per pound—be
ing about equal to 70 cents, washed. He sold a
buck live months old this spring, of his own rais
ing, for $250 and an interest of one-half in anoth
er for $210; alter having had, the use of him for two
previous years ! These prices are high up in the
figures, but are nothing remarkable for this breed
of sheep. He keeps these sheep principally on his
farm in Butler county.
AN INTERESTINII DECISION:A decision of some
importance has been rendered by Judge Williams,
of Pittsburg. Some time ago a man named Philip
Schymbly, was convicted of keeping a tippling
house, and fined $75. In default of payment of
the fine, he was sent to jail. The Commissioners
of the county took the prisoner's bond for the debt,
and wrote a release for Schymbly, Which was hand
ed to Mr. Mitchell, the engineer of the jail, the
sheriff and jailer being absent. Mitchell, thinking
all right, released the prisoner from confinement:
When the sheriff returned, he .arrested. Schymbly
and recommitted him to prison contending that
the commissioners could not discharge him till the
sentence of the court was complied with. To set
tle the matter, the prisoner was taken on habeas
corpus, before Judge Williams, who decided that
the commissioners could not discharge a prisoner,
and that the sheriff had a perfect right to rein se to
discharge one on their order. If, however, the
sheriff and the commissioners were agreed on the
matter, the prisoner might be released from con
finement.
Si YOIIIC MAU-
;UPPLE OF CATTLE FOR TRE W
ILET.—It is said that were it not tor the numerous
railroads, New York city would now be in a state
of starvation so far as meat is concerned, as it h as
to depend almost entirely upon supplies from the
West. Beeves are now delivered there from the
northwestern prairies, within a week, by means of
railroads, at an expense of $lO to $l2 per head.—
It would take from 50 to 90 days to bring cattle
from the western parts of Ohio, Kentucky, Illinois,
or Arkansas in fair weather, but in winter it would
be to expensive too attempt such a thing. A drove
of cattle from the Cherokee nation, raised by the
Indians, were recently received at New York, via
railroad, from Illinois. •It is said it would be rare
to find a hundred head of cattle in the New York,
New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Vermont markets
at one time, but for the droves that come from the
West, over the different lines of railway.
HORRIBLE MURDER IN CARADA.-OR Tuesday
last a most horrible murder was perpetrated in Ka
mourask, L. C., by a man named Pelletier, the vic
tim being his father-in-law—a Mr. Lebel. It ap
pears that after a quarrel, Lebel proposed a, death
fight, in which both parties should be destroyed.—
Immediately on the proposition being made, Pel
letier seized his fathea-in-law and inflicted on him
twenty-lour wounds with a knife. The wounded
man frequentiy begged for mercy, bnt the infuriated
Pelletier paid no attention to him, saying with a sav
age joy—" You shall die,as you deserve—as a dog!
Recommend your soul .to God !" After literally
cutting Lebel to pieces, the murderer took'to flight.
The officers pursued, but were unable to overtake
hinti. On Wednesday night, however, he returned
and delivered himself over to the jailor, saying—q.
cannot live this way. Let the will of God and the'
justice of man be satisfied." He is now awaiting
the reward of one of the most atrocious crimes ever
commited in this country.
Tax FIJGIT/VE SLATE "Fmaza."—The U. S.
Marshal for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania,
arrived in this city last evening, with the fugitive
slave Fisher, belonging to Mr. Howard, of Cecil
county. Upon his arrival, the Marshal surrendered
the slave to his master's order, and left in the morn
ing train for the scene of his labors in Philadelphia.
If the U. States Government sustains the Marshal
in his late determination to retain the fugitive in
his custody under all hazards, which it cannot fail
to do, in our opinion, Colonel Wynkoop has estab
lished a precedent worthy of all praise, and which
will go far in allaying the fanatical zeal, usually
displayed by northern abolitionists, in their efforts
to cause the law to be evaded by cunning machine
tione.
In a conversation we had with the Colonel, we
learn that another attempt at rescue•was made in
the shape of an indispensable bail piece, previous to
his leaving Philadelphia, which was only avoided
by the Marshal's foresight in driving with the ne
gro, incog. in a private carriage out of the limits of
the State. Maryland slave owners should indeed
be grateful for the indefatigable efforts of this mer•
itorious officer.—Baltimore Argus, of Thursday.
CHYSTAL PAI.ACE EXHIBITION.—The Scientific
American says :—.During the past week the Exhi
bition has greatly improved in every respect. Great
activity has been displayed in the opening of new
packages, and the arrangement of new articles.--
The average daily attendance of visitors has been
about 4000. As machinery is capable of doing al-
Moat everything now-a-days, a machine counts the
number of persona who enter the building. It is
an instrument like that employed at some toll bars
to register the number of tax-payers- Every per
son entering passes through a turn stile which re.
cords each admission; and all that is necessary
therefore, at the end of the day to ascertain the ag
gregate number of visitors, is to add up the record
of each turn-stile.
New cases are being opened every day, and the
daily visitor is greeted in each department with
many novelties of which he catches glimpses on the
various counters, without, however, gaining more
information of the articles than a mere view affords
him.
Hos. J.istas BIICIIANAN.--We understand this
distinguished gentleman will leave tor London on
the 6th of August. It will be painful to his many
friends in Pennsylvania to part with him. He is so
well known and so well beloved by the people, that
they will regret most deeply to part with him. W
wish him health and happiness, and we can ass u
our fellow citizens that when abroad he will watc ,
with a vigilant eye over their intereits...-Pittsbur`i

LATE FROM EUROPE
NSW Yowa, July 28, 1.14 P. M.—The Royal
Mail Steamship Asia, Capt. Lott, arrived at her
dock at Jersey City to.nig,ht, bringing Liverpool
dates to the 16th, being three days later than the ad

The Liverpool Cotton market remains unchanged
The sales for the week amounted to only forty-six
thousand bales, of which three thousand were taken
on'speculation, and eight thousand bales for ex

The Liverpool Market for Breadstuffe had recov
ered the decline noticed per Artic. Flour and Wheat
were in steady request at previous prices. Corn
was unchanged. Rice had slightly advanced.
Trnue at Manchester was quiet, without any no
ticeable change in prices.
The Eastern question was still agitated in the
newspapers with much spirit, but had assumed a
most pacific aspect.
The English, French, Austrian, and Prussian
Ambassadors at Constantinople, had drawn up an
amicable note, which the Sultan had agreed to, and
sent to the Emperor of Russia for his acceptance.
There seemed to be no doubt but that it would
meet his approval. There is no other news of i m
portance.
DEATH or CAPTAIN KANE, U. S. A.—The Belle
ville (Mo)' Advocate records the death of Capt. El
lis K. Kane, U. S. A,-on the 9 thinst., in the 31st
year of his age. The - Advocate says of him :
"Capt. Kane was a graduate of West Point in '4l,
since which time he has been in the service. He
was the eldest son of our late respected Senator,
Hon, Elias K. Kane of Kaskasia. Capt. K. passed
through the Mexican war under the command of Gen.
Taylor, with distinguished honor to himself, and "was
breveted a Captain at the close. He was captured
with Capt. Thornton at the opening of the war,
when the first blood was shed, and remained a pris
oner till he was exchanged. He was at the siege of
Monterey, and was stationed there during the battle
of Buena Vista.
Alter the war he was ordered to Calilornia, where
he acted as QuartCrmaster for a..igreat part of the
periJd horn 184.7 to 1852.
POST OFFICE STAMPS.—These articles as all our
readers know, are sometimes rather difficult to fas
ten on letters, without the aid of a little extra gum
on the paste. The phatau g ue Democrat tells a
pretty good story on this subject, which occurred
at Westfield. A letter was put into the box, the
appearance of which denoted that the writer was
unaccustomed to the use of the stamps, and had
failed to make one stick at all. fie had tried, and
vainly tried, but the inveterate portrait of Benja
min Franklin would curl up. At last, in despair,
tie pinned it to the envelope, and wrote just under
it—"Fein if the d—d thing sticks!"
HORRIBLE DEATH.—The Bloomfield Advocate
says John Funk, of Liverpool township Perry coun
ty, was lulled on the tow path of the Susquehan
na canal, last week, in the following manner :--He
had recently purchased a horse which he was en
deavoring to work at his boat. The horse was very
fractious, and the rope to which he was attached
having broken, the portion yet fastened to the horse
wrapped around Mr. Funk, dragging him some
times in the water and sometimes on the tow path,
the distance of half a mile, and thus he was liter
ally mangled to pieces.
Snocxmo ACCIDENT.—A correspondent in Ply
mouth, N. C., writes us the followin ,, account of a
melancholy accident which occurred ° at Williams
ton, on Saturday last :—A young man, of the name
.of Bragg, employed in the steam mill at that place,
aecidentally tripped and fell, and in falling his arm
struck the circular saw and was inwantly cut off ;
as if it had been done by a sickle. The jerk pro
duced by the collision threw him over and brought
his neck in immediate contact with the saw, when
in a twinkle his head was severed from his body
and thrown some four feet from the instrument!—
Alas how true the warning "in the midst of life
we are in death."
NEW HAVEN, July 25
BRur.&L MURDF.O or A FEMALE.—A. horrid mur
der was committed in North Haven yesterday, on
the wife of Mr. Brazilla Brady, a highly respecta
ble citizen of that place. The family had gone to
church, leaving her at home,•and when Mr. Bare
turned he found her dead upon the floor, and the
house robbed. She was stabbed and cut in a sav
age manner.
A young Irishman named Michael Jennings, for
merly in Mr. Brady's employ, has been arrested
on suspicion of Wing the murderer. He exhibits a
good deal of agitation. A $2O bill, with marks of
blood upon it, has just been taken from the man
with whom be lodged last night.
YELLOW FEVER AT NEW ORLEARS.—The yel:
low fever prevails to a considerable extent in New
Orleans. In the week ending on the 16th instant,
there were 104 cases in the Charity Hospital-36
fatal. On the 17th, there, were 145 cases under
treatment, and 51 deaths during the two previcius
days. Since the first of June, 181 deaths from yel
low fever have occurred in the Hospital, and on the
16th instant, there were 741 patients in that insti
tution, suffering from various diseases.
HE.tvr &sir. Ronnsuir.—Office Daily dldvertiser,
Newark, July 26.—The . Mechanics' and Traders'
Bank, in Jersey City, was entered last night, and
robbed of $9,000. The thieves stole keys at the
Cashier's house, With which they entered the bank
and plundered the vault of the above amount in
bills and specie.
Sheriff Merselles left a bundle at the bank yes
terday containing $l2OO, principally in notes of the
North River Bank, which the thieves also carried
off
HEAVY VERDICT.—In the case of Orrin S. Bon
steel against Cornelius Vanderbilt and Daniel Drew,
tried at Kingston, Ulster county, during the last
week, the Jury rendered a verdict for the plaintiff
for the sum of $lO,OOO. The action was for cruel
and improper treatment of a passenger, who took
passage by the Vanderbilt new line of steamers be
tween New York and San Francisco, and for delay
of 56 days on the route.
BOSTON, July 19.—1 n the State prison at Charles
ton, this morning, a convict, named James Wilson,
attacked a fellow convict, named William Adams,
and with a case knife, evidently sharpened for the
purpose, severed his jugular vein, causing instant
death. Not a word passed between them, and no
provocation was given by the murdered man. Wil
son's sentence of four years' imprisonment expired
this morning, and he was about being discharged
when he committed the murder.
BROAD Tor Reirnoen.—The Fulton Democra t
ot last week says, the Broad Top Railroad is to be
extended to Bedford. The engineers are now ex
amining the route, and were at Bedford a few days
ago. If Bedford county raises $lOO,OOO, the road
will be made by the Huntingdon and Broad Top
railroad company, and will be located and let this
fall. The citizens of Bedford county should strain
every nerve to raise the amount 01 money required,
as the benefits to be derived from such ad improve
ment will be incalculably great. The work on the
allotted sections ot the Broad Top road will be com
menced in a week or two.--Harrisburg Union.
CINCINNATI, July 27,—Six counterfeiters were

are old penitentiary birds, and another, named
Quincy Hurchy, was a large sub-contractor on the
Ohio and Mississippi Railroad. The whole party
had a hearing to-day, and were committed to jail.
The gang is supposed to be the most 'daring and
extensive counterfeiters in the country.
