THE WIFE MURDER IN THE WEST—CONFESB•
lON OF THE MIIRDEREE.—We gave yesterday
the principal features of the confession of
George H. Lamb to the strangulation and
drowning of his wife, Sarah S. Lamb, on the
17th of December last, in the Mississippi river,
a short distance below this city, And we
give, last Monday, a long account of the
circumstances which led to the suspicion that
caused his arrest.
Yesterday afternoon the prisoner (having, it
is said, confessed his guilt) was taken before
Justice Herckenroth, by virtue of a warrant
issued on the affidavit of Jacob Stafford, his
father in-law. There was no examination, how
ever, and there may not be for two or three
days yet. Lamb is now in jail.
The affidavit relates that "on or about the
17th day of December, 1857, in the city and
county of St. Louis, and State of Missouri, one
George H. Lamb did wilfully, deliberately,
and premeditatedly kill and murder one Sarah
S. Lamb then and there being the wife of him
the said George H. Lamb, by maliciously,
wilfully, premeditatedly, and forcibly holding
the head of her, the said Sarah S. Lamb,
under the surface of the water of the Mississip
pi river, until she, the said Sarah S. Lamb,
died by strangulation and drowning ; and then,
by tying to the person of her, the said Sarah
S. Lamb, in the waters of the aforesaid river,
thereby then and there wilfully, deliberately,
premeditatedly, and maliciously causing the
death of her, the said Sarah S. Lamb, by
strangulation and drowning, as aforesaid,
contrary to the statute in such cases made and
provided, and against the peace and dignity of
the State." As the body of the murdered
victim has not been found, the case, if it comes
to trial, will present a novel feature.—Sl. Louis
Republican, March 27.
The preparations for the second attempt to
lay the Atlantic Telegraph cable are progres
sing in England, four hundred additional miles
of the cable having just been completed, and
three hundred more for casulties' having been
ordered, making, in all, about three thousand
miles of cable. The great doubt always ex
pressed by scientific electricians, has been
whether the magnetic current should be relied
upon for working the line through such a
length of cable. Mr. Whitehouse has been
making experiments in the coiled cable to test
this matter, but though great confidence is
expressed in the result, the experiments them
' , elves do not relieve the subject of doubt.—
The sending of messages through a cable 2.200
miles lung, coiled up together in one mass, is
a different thing from what it will be extended
across the ocean. Yet, under this most
favorable condition of things, Mr. Whitehouse
was able only to send through five words per
minute, with a hope that he would finally
reach eight words in that time. Five words
per minute amount to but three hundred per
hour, an operation so slow as to defeat any
fair expectations of great profit to the stock
holders, unless the prices of telegraphing are
made correspondingly high. Yet this working
capacity, the London Times says, " is such an
improvement iu the rate of transmission as
not many ventured to anticipate who saw the
cable worked for the first time last summer-"
Lest this fact might alarm capitalists, it adds
that though the accommodation of the hu , iness
between the two countries will be too slow at
this rate, yet "if this line is submerged this
-summer, it will follow, as a matter of course,
that three or four others must be laid as well,
and there seems no reason why, if one can be
laid down, there should not be us many tele
graphs under the Atlantic as there are now
under the channel." The operations to lay the
cable will commence in -June. The line will
be joined and laid from the centre of the ocean,
the Niagara taking her end to England, the
Agamemnon conveying here to America.—
Communication by electric signal will, of
course, if the wire holds, be kept up between
the two vessels the whole way. Fifty miles of
the cable laid last year have been recovered by
underrunning, the remainder, 338 miles, broke
' off and are lost forever.—Philudel4hia Ledger.

clothing by the use of which the clothes can be washed
very clean without boiling, and with very little rubbing.
By this method much hard labor can be saved: the washing
can be done in hail the tune, and the clothes are very white
and clean, and last much longer, for they are not worn by
rubbing as by the old way of washing by machines he.—
The articles used cost but little, and are easy to obtain. I
