Somehow he fell into the boiling slop which had just been ruu out. Several minutes are supposed to have elapsed before any one discovered his situa tion. He had evidently struggled to rescue himself. He only survivedn few moments after being taken out. Bunt+l.A HIEN IN COI. UM BIA .--011 last Friday night, some burglars effected an en trance, by meansof " nippers" and "wire," into the dwelling house of Jeremiah Hess, of Columbia. They ransacked the tower rooms, getting for their trouble a small quantity of silverware.

IMPROVEMENTS IN MANHEIM. — The Manheim Sentinel says : It is with pleasure we announce the pro gress of our town,—the increased business facilities and evident prosperity of our merchants and mechanics,—as shown by the new buildings springing up and im provements made in the various business places and private residences in our midst. All our carpenters are as " busy as nailers," and the saw and hammer can be heard on all sides. The new residence of Mr. J. B. White, on South Charlotte street, is now complete. Mr. A. Dummy has cleared away the old house and cooper shop, for merly known as Snyder's, on same street, and is about constructing a two•story resi dence in its stead. Mrs. G. W.

We also hear of It number of other new houses, be sides other improvements, in contemplation which will be noticed in our columns when under way. CIiEsTER CouNTY NEws.—We clip the °flowing from the Oxford Press: A severe hull storm passed over Oxford about two o'clock on Monday last, doing damage to houses, gardens, and fruit trees, The storm was the most violent that has occurred here for a long time. The cloud arose in the south West, and was several miles in extent. The hailstones were about the size of hazel nuts, and for a few minutes came pelting down iu perfect fury, accom panied with a deluge of water and sharp lightning and thunder. A number of lights were broken in the houses of W. A. Long, Rev. W. R. Bingham, Francis Al. Dare and others. The sash over the hot beds of 1). W. Crosby, near Oxford, and S. 11. A .1. F. Dickey, at Hopewell, was badly broken and many plants destroyed. A few miles southwest of Oxford the hailstones were about the size of hickory nuts. On the night of thel4th inst., some thieves broke into Joshua Ely's cellar in East Not tingham, and took u lot of meat, a crock of lard, all the bread aml cakes, some potatoes and several other articles. No trace of the •operly has yet been discovered. On the ght of the lith the stone person or persons broke into Medir school house in the same township and wrote upon the black board "'There is partiality used in thisschool ; you are like your father." On the following night the house was again entered and a quantity of powder rolled up in some sha vings phieed in the stove. When the lire was kindled ixploded, fortunately however, doing no serious damage; but it is evident the design was to injure the teacher. The funeral of Mrs. Osmond, of Hopewell Borough, was preparing to leave the house just ;is the severe hail storm came up on Monday afternoon. A number of the horses were greatly alarmed by the pelting hail and some of them attempted to run. Two belonging to Pitner Osmond, of Franklin township, became unmanageable, and al though Mr. Osmond and Nelson Stevens had them by the bridles, they broke down a fence, whirled around, upset the carriage and broke It considerably. Both gentlemen were somewhat hurt. The horse of Samuel Graver, Sr., of Oxford, became frightened, jerked Mr. G. down and ran over him, tilt , carriage passing over one of his legs. lie was not, however, badly injured. Several other carriages were somewhat broken, and great alarm existed until the storm abated. A man named Thomas Scanlan, aged about 38 years, was run over and killed by the passenger train about half a mile east of Oxford, on Friday evening last. He had been in Oxford during the day, drinking to intoxication, and in the evening wandered down the railroad, and is supposed laid down on the track and went to sleep, or fell ill a lit. RUNAWAY AND ACCIDENT.—We regret t o learn that Mr. Hugh S. Maxwell, Manager of the North Lebanon, Furnace, while re turning from the Lebanon County Agricul tural Fair, being held at Lebanon lust week, met with a serious accident. His horse took fright and ran away, throwing him off, cutting his head, and otherwise in juring him. He is said to Lein a precarious condition. Mr. Maxwell is a native of uuore township, Lancaster county MOUNT Joy AFFAIRS.—The Mount Job Herald has tho following items of loco The stock of cheap jewelry of Oberheiser, of Williamsport, Pa., Davis, of Harrisburg, and Fancier, of Williamsport, Pa., was seized by Detective Henderson. The parties were selling their goods at Marietta, this county, and had neglected to take out a I icense. The colored people of Springville will hold agrand exhibition at their church in said village on next Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, (the 30th inst.,' and the first of May,) to commence at 7 o'clock, each eve ning. The proceeds to be for the - benefit of their church. Admittance 15 cents. The preliminary steps have already been taken by the M. E. Church, for building immediately a new church edifice on the site of the old one; to be of brick 40 by 00 The United Brethren in Christ are also taking measures to build a church here, if the means can he raised, of which they have good hopes. The site for this church is also on Main street a short uistance each of the M. E. church. There being a good many members of this church in the neighbor• hood, they are much in need of a place of worship ; having never had a church in the place. COLUMBIA AFFAIRS.- We clip the follow g items from the Spy of this morning: We had a very heavy frost on Thursday Ight last, and it is feared the peach crop, this vicinity, is greatly injured thereby. The house of Mr. John F. 'Mutual, at the upper end of Walnut street, this borough, was entered by burglars, on Monday night last, while the family were absent, and the sum of $.55.00, and a note for $l2O taken from a bureau drawer. Shad fishing has been going on, below the dant, quite briskly for the past few. days, and it is said the catch has been very good. They are selling on our streets, at $l.OO to $1.50 per pair. Yesterday morning they were quite plenty, and prices must come down. The river is now in a splendid condition for rafting, and our lumbermen are taking advantage of it. As many us forty rafts pass our borough daily on their way to the eastern and southern markets. There has been an unusual number of persons " gone down" on pleasure trips this spring, and we understand there is a large party on the Lapis for early next week. The party will consist of some fifty persons, principally from Philadelphia and New York. There will be about lifteen persons from Columbia and Marietta accompuning the party. 'l'Hl: Mariettion of this morning contains he following: Frederick Waller, a tide pilot of this place, cut his fdot very badly with a hatchet, a few days since, coming within an eighth of an inch of severing the main leader, whilst starting a raft down the river, This is the second accident this sea son which has happened him. The first trip he made this Beeson he had his leg nearly mashed by being caught in a raft rope. lie is one o( the most persevering pilots on the river, and has, for several years, made more trips to Peach Bottom than any other M%rietta pilot. This acci dent will close his running for this season. Sale of eliester.—Wo learn that Mr. David Bonner has sold his Hambletonian stallion, Chester, to A. W. Markley, Esq., of Camden, N. J., for a large sum. This young horse has been exercised in the park for the past three or four weeks, and many of our read= ers have noticed him and retnarkEid his ex traordinary beauty,. He is a blood bay, with the characteristic form of the Hamble tonian stock. His dam was by Young liellfounder, grandam by Henry, who ran the famous race with Eclipse, and who sired American Star. It will be seen that he draws the traditional strains of trotting blood from both sire and dam. He is but four years old, and has never been on a track or had a day's training; never theless, he can show a gait which fore shaddwe performances not unworthy of We lineage. GRAFrrern.—As the. season of grafting trait trees is at hand, the following advice from the Germantown Telegraph, good . authority in such matters, will be of use in the business: Grafting is every easy opera tion when once understood. A sharp pen knife and a goodfinesawareindispensable. Splitting the stock so that the bark shall not be bruised—and shaping the scion wedge fashion both ways, preserving also the bark uninjured—and placing the rim of the wood of both stock and scion exactly together, so that the sap can intermingle—there is no danger of failure if properly waxed. We make a shoulder to the graft and think it adds to • the certainty of success, though probably it weakens it. We prefer two eyes or buds to a graft, and would rather have one than more than two. One year's wood should always be used when it can be ob tained, as it is more certain to take, and grows more vigorously. We remind those about preparing graft ing wax, that we have found four parts of rosin, one part of beeswax, and one part of beef tallow, to be the beat proportion. Melt them together in a kettle,l(which is the best) or a tin cup, and mix welf.N.Tt should re main in the vessel and be usedns needed. Twenty or thirty scions can be waxed with one heating up. When much grafting is to be done, a little fire for heating the wax should be made on the spot, between two bricks or stones. We have seen various preparations for making grafting wax, and we believe we have tried them all, but pre fer our own. Applying warm or hot does no injury to the graft. The object to attain in the proposition is, that the wax will not crack in cold, dry .. .weather ' or run in warm weather. April - fti the best time to s_ raft. A SPLENDID I3IPROVEMENT. — For a long time the pr arty in this city laying be tween Church and Middle streets has re• mained in statu quo, very little, if any, im provements having been made in that vi cinity for a number of years past. The result is that whole section of the city presents a dilapidated appearance. Fortu nately for the property-holders along these two streets a new mau has been introduced into their midst in the person of our friend Dr. B. Mishler, the Bitt6ts man, who last Fall purchased a greater part of the square laying south of Factory Road or Rockland street, and between Middle and Church streets. Dr. Mishler, with his usual enterprise, at once erected thereon a fine three-story building for the purpose of carrying on the brewing of his celebrated London Porter and Ale. This building was completed last Fall, and the present Spring Dr. M., finding that he still had a large amount of ground unoccupied, resolved to devote it to a pleas ure garden, something long wanted in Lancaster. -• • . With the Doctor to resolve is to act, and he at once had Chas. E. Hayes, Esq., to draw up a plan for the garden. This was soon done, and now Dr. M. has quite a large number of workmen busily engaged in carrying out the plan adopted and in a very short time Lancaster will be able to boast of a public garden that cannot be ex celled by any of the larger cities, and which will increase in beauty each year. In the plan is a main building 32x26 feet fronting on Middle street; an octagonal building with a band room on top; two fountains, each 15 feet in diameter; three entrance gates on Church street, the main one highly ornamental; nearly two miles of gravel walk ; fifty feet of hop arbor; over 400 feet•ot grape arbor; a choice selection of fruit trees, and a number of raised plots, all of which will be sodded. The whole, when finished, will cost In the neighborhood of 310,000, exclusive of the cost of the land, The ground is well selected for a garden of this description, as it lays high, is readily drained and of easy access to all our citi zens. Dr. Mishler deserves the thanks of - - preparing such a place and we hope when it is well patronized by the the community for of pleasant resort, finished it will be public. But with ❑ll Ihis, of course Mishler would not consider his work finished on less he ad topped it oil with an act of generosity. his is characteristic of the man. We were therefore, not the least surprised when we learned that Dr. Mishler had resolved to devote one third of the nett profits of his pleasure garden to the Children's Home of lb' city. -'his will certainly net a handsome sum 'or that institution, and it for the loss of the usual State appropriation which failed to pass at the recent session of the Legislature. This kind offer of Dr. Mishler is not for a week or a month, but is to be continuous. When the garden is ready fur visitors urrrangements will be made whereby one-third of the profits will be paid over to the Managers of the Home on the first of every month. Certainly this generosity is very commendable. SENT TO THE PENITENTIARY.-G. W.

The final hearing in the case of the atro cious outrage on the idiot girl Bessie Grif fin of No. 208 North Seventh street, Brook lyn, E. D., was concluded before Justice Dailey on Saturday, and ended in the dis charge of the prisoners Michael Quirk and Nicholas Owens. The testimony revealed a most revolting outrage. It seems that the injured girl and her mother, who is also of unsound mind, lived together without any male protector, and a crowd of young ruffians in their neighborhood took advan tage of their condition to satiate their beastly desires. To do this, and avoid the penalty of a rape, the villains concocted the idea of a mock marriage, and persuaded one of their number to officiate as an Epis copal minister. This fellow was intro duced as the Rev. Mr. Flinkwing, and he read the marriage ritual of the Episcopal Church, and pro nounced Michael Quirk and Bessie UtifCiu man and wife. The poor girl was forced to answer to the usual responses, and after the mock ceremony, she was fOrced by Quirk to submit to his lusts, white his in famous companions witnessed tfamous outrage with joers and laughter. The mother of the unfortunate girl was also compelled to withess her dishonor, but feared to give notice of the occurrence to the police under the threats of the ruffians. This took place on St. Patrick's Day, and on Easter Sunday the same party repeated the outrage, Quirk claiming a husband's right. His arrest was caused for this last offence, but the Justice discharged him on the ground of the marriage alluded to. His honor characterized the outrage as unpara leled, but said that he was powerless to punish the parties. The Peace Conference—The Basis of De liberations. By Atlantic Telegraph. LONDON, April 29.—The European Con ference, which will meet in this city next month to settle the dispute between France cud Prussia in regard to ,Luxemburg, will be composed of representatives of Great Britian, France, Prussia, Austria, Russia, and the King of Holland as Grand Duke of Luxemburg. It is understood that the fol lowing terms have been agreed upon as the basis for the deliberations of the Conference: First. France Is not to enlarge her present boundaries. • Second. The fortifications of Luxemburg are to he evacuated and dismantled. . . • • • - Third. The future political status of the Grand Duchy of Luxemburg is to be ascer tained and determined by the Conference. Fourth. The final decision of the Confer ence is to be guaranteed by all the govern ments participating therein. Attorney General Stanbery is thus per sonally sketched by a Washington corres pondent: Tall, very spare, dressed iu the soberest black, his crane-like neck enclosed in a high black stock; with a long profile and a broader face than you expect, the Attorney General is the most unique and old-fashioned of gentlemen. Seeing him you must think of times a hundred years gone, or of men who figure in the delight ful exaggerations of Dickens. Horrible Harder in Philidelphia—Par tieulars of the Affair. The victim was, Mrs. Dorcas Magilton, sixty-two years old, for the last forty years the wife of Adam Magilton. They bad been married almost half a century, their chil dren had grown to man and womanhood, and they were living alone in comfort and quiet. At two o'clock, and soon after they had taken dinner yesterday, Mr. Magilton left home to go to the store of a spectacle maker, a few squares off, his errand being to have his wife's spectacles repaired. He left her knitting, seated in a rocking-chair near a table in the kitchen and sitting room combined. He told her that he would not be long absent, and he did not expect to be ; but, when he reached the store, he enter ed into a conversation which so interested him that he forgot how the time was passing, and was there from an hour to an hour and a half. Upon leaving he immediately re turned home, and when he attempted to open the front door he was surprised to dis cover that it was locked. While working at the knob of the latch, the door was opened from the inside, and a young man named George W. Winnemore, an occa sional visitor at the house, stood inside the entry. He had no hat on, yet did not ap pear in the least excited. As soon as he saw Mr. Magilton he said : "Tour wife is murdered; come in and see." - -- "Murdered!" exclaimed Mr. Magilton; "that cannot be, as it is but a short time since I left her." Re accompanied Winnemore to the kitchen, audithere a horrible sight met his vision. Extended on the floor lay the wife, her skull crushed in with blows from a _iammer, and her throat cut from earlto ear. The hammer was close to the head, but no knife or other sharp instrument could be found in the room with which the throat had been cut. Close to one of the hands was the ball of yarn which Mrs. Magiltou had been using in her knitting, and at her feet, overturned, was the rocking chair upon which she had been sitting. Her position on the floor, the position of the rocking chair, and the place where the ball of yarn was found, all unmistakably showed that she had been approached from behind, the blow with the hammer upon the top of the head given as she sat in the chair; that she either fell or was pulled from the chair to the floor, where the mur derer, not satisfied with the fiendish malig nity he had already shown, finished the deed by cutting her throat. There were seven blows on the head, all of them pene trating the skull, and causing wounds sufficient to produce death, independent of the cut of the throat. The hammer with which the blows were inflicted was what is known as a riveting hammer. It belonged to Mr. Magilton, and was kept is the box attached to the ironing table. There was no blood in any part of the room except immediately under her head, nor was there piny appearance of a struggle whatever. Nothing, except just about the body, was in disorder in the room. The work-table contained a number of articles, and every thing was, no doubt, as she placed it. The feelings of Mr. Magilton upon seeing his wife thus cruelly murdered may be im agined. He ran into the street in a frenzied' state and gave the alarm. In this he was assisted by Winnemore, who proposed to procure a policeman. To that end he went into the street and hailed Policeman James McCullen, Sr. who was on Thirteenth street, near Shippen. After telling the policeman that a Warder had been com mitted, Winnemore started a way, but was immediately followed and arrested by the officer he addressed. Whittemore was taken to the Second Ns- triet Station house, where Ike was searched by Lieutenant Hampton, and his clothing subjected to a rigid examination, There were on his person two $2 bills, stowed away in hie vest pocket. It is stated that on Wednesday evening the son-in-law of Mrs. Magi lion gave her two two-dollar bills, and after her death they were not found on her person, but the money taken from W iune more has not yet been identified as that in Mrs. Magaton s possession. There wee a l!.o found okk his person the following let ter, which - would seem to indicate on his part a determination to commit suicide: PHILADELPHIA, April 22, 18137 TO My FRIENDS: This sad calamity is caused by my enemies--those who were my pretended friends. I have been accused of many things which are utterly false. God knows I tun innocent of them. This note is intended especially for M. M., of this city, although I forgive them for what they have done. I prefer death to dishonor, tor it rests as a stigma on my name, character, and would for years. I have tried to bear them all, but it bears me down with terrible —. I now bid all earthly friends and enemies farewell in this life. Let past be forgotten, Yours, in truth, EO. \VINNEMORE. No blood could be seen upon Winnemore, nor had he a knife in his possession. His statement was that he went into the house and found Mrs. Magilton iu the position already described; tlntt he had no difficulty in getting in, as the door was unlocked, but atter the discovery he locked it in order that lie might search the house for the party or parties who had committed the murder; that after making this search he was about to come on the street, when he heard sonic one at the door, and upon going there met Mr. Magilton. After Winnemore was taken into custody, a thorough search of the house was made. There are no indi- cations of a robbery. One or more of the bureau drawers were open, but the contents had not been disturbed. Iu a pocket in the dress of the murdered woman was found her porte-monnaie, which had a ten cent currency note in it. The husband thought that she ought to have had more money about her, but he had no knowledge on the subject. The officers also searched the well attached to the out house, and there found a razor, which Mr. Magilton states does not bElong to him, Winnemore denied all knowledge of it, and said that he did not shave himself. Last evening, however, Lieutenant Hamp ton went to the Monitor House, Front street, near Walnut, where the accused boarded, and in his valise found a razor case. The proprietor of the house stated that two days ago, while shaving, Winnemore said to him that he had a better instrument than that, and produced one, and the proprietor last evening identified the one found in the well as the razor loaned to him. It was peculiar in being ground on one side only, and for that reason it was remembered. The pro prietor also states that on Wednesday he told Whittemore that he must pay his boar that he might stay one night more (last night), but he must then pay the live days he owed or leave. Winnemore in an swer said it would be all right, as he ex pected money' yesterday from his brother. The proprietor - of a public house, at Broad and Shippen streets, states that he saw the accused at ten minutes past two o'clock, when he was inquiring the time of day. Winnemore's own story of the time is that he reached the house a few minutes before three, and then discovered the murder. Coroner Daniels was summoned to hold an inquest on the body, but it was deferred until a post-mortem examination could be made. the prisoner, is about Winnemore, twenty-four years old, and was but recent• ly discharged front the regular army. He had been a visitor at the house for some months, and on Sunday last was there from 10 o'clock in the morning until 7 o'clock in the evening, and took dinner with Mr. and Mrs. Magilton. He was at the house also about tell o'clock yesterday morning, dur ing the absence of Mr. Magilton, and was talking to the lady when her husband re turned. He then left in a few minutes. His own story is that after leaving the house in the morning, he wandered out to the Schuylkill and to Fairmount Park, and was on his return home when he again stepped into Mrs. Magilton's house and dis covered the murder. So far as it is known, he had had no quarrel with Mrs. Magilton, and when he visited the house they seemed to be on quite friendly terms. The murder very naturally created much excitement in the neighborhood in which it occurred, more because the unfortunate woman was well known and universally, esteemed. She was the mother of General Magilton, whose connection with the Penn sylvania Reserves has made his name quite a lamiliar ono to our citizens. His numer ous friends will deeply sympathize with him in his sad bereavement. At the Coroner's examination which took place yesterday evidence was elicited tend• ing to fasten the crime upon Winnemore. No cause is assigned for the deed, and some of the papers allege that the murderer was laboring under a temporary fit of insanity. Both he and his victim were believers in spiritualism. Thejury rendered a verdict, " that Dorcas Magilton came to her death by violence, at, the hands of Geo. W. Win nemore, on the afternoon of April 25th, 1857, at No. 1109 Shippen street." The prisoner was then committed for trial. Womau'Ff Rights in Peru They do things nicely in Peru. If the women do not vote they certainly exercise a control over the actions of Congress, which even a male voter would despair of ever at taining. It seems that a few weeks ago that body contemplated the enactment of a law which the fair senoritas thought objection able, whereupon the gentle creatures crowd ed the galleries of the hourse, and disturbed the proceedings. The Speaker ordered the galleries to be cleared, but the ladies refused to budge, and only laughed at the officials and called them naughty names. Then they threw bouquets to the members who voted on their side. Orders were thereupon given to admit no ladies who should carry flowers in their hands. But determined to have their way they concealed immense quantities in their crinoline, and showered them right and left over the house. The Speaker threatened to call in the militia, but the fair dames laughed and dared him to do it. Members were hooted down when they attempted to speak, and sarcastic com ments upon their dress and general outline flew around in the liveliest manner. At last the house was forced to adjourn in de spair. The Peruvian ladies evidently have elevated notions of woman's rights, and.they know how to put them to practical use. THE QUESTION SETTLED.—Thoso eminent men, Dr. James Clark, Physician to Queen Victoria, and Dr. Hughes Bennett, say that consumption can be cured. Dr. Wistar knew this when he discovered his now widely known Balsam of Wild Cherry, and experience has proved the correctness of his opinion,—Communicated. A Chapter or Horrors=The:llliaois ega,ne AsYlum. The frightful abuses practiced in private insane asylumns have been exposed in sev eral American and English works of fiction, but the public generally have been apt to believe accounts corning through such sources were exaggerated by the imagi nation of the writers. Occasionally, how ever, well authenticated facts have gone to prove that no coloring of romance could exceed in shocking ghastliness the revela tions of reality. Lately, circumstances have brought to light some scenes and incidents in the interior economy of the Illinois In sane Asylum, and such another chapter of horrors could scarcely be found outside the records of the Spanish Inquisition. Within the walls of that terrible build ing, given over, hopelessly, helplessly, to the tender mercies of a gang of brutal, bestial doctors and keepers, hundreds of poor demented beings have languished through years of torture and indignity un til death kindly came t te terminate their sufferings. From various sources the truth is gradually coming out, and the details already published are so sad and sickening as to make one almost doubt the possibility of their occurrence, were not the evidence in the case thoroughly sustained and ir refragible. There is proof positive that the unfortunate inmates were, for the slightest offenses—offenses, be it remem bered, committed in a condition of utter irresponsibility—subjected to the most cruel and revolting punishments. Think of a delicate .woman consigned to the fiendish discipline of the "screw room ;" and the case is one that actually occurred. The wretched victim was fitted with a close ly fitting waist or " jacket," with sleeves coming below the hand and sewed up, hav ing a single loophole through which a strong cord might be passed. Her arms were then crossed in front, the hands being drawn tightly behind her, she was then thrown violently upon the floor, face downward, her clothing was removed, and then she was beaten until her flesh was a mere jelly. With what were called refractory or ob stinate patients the indescribable agony of the cold bath was resorted to. The patient was taken to the bath room, tied hand and foot, plunged into cold water, held tinder until almost strangled, for a moment re: moved only to be again and again sub merged until life was nearly extinct. A lady, employed in the asylum for three years and a half, writes to a female friend that one of the physicians instructed the attendants how to choke patients without leaving finger marks! From another at tendant we have the following story of devilish malignity vouched for: " An attendant discovered a patient of infirm health resting on her bed in the day time, lir disregard of a rule of the house to which no exceptions are allowed. To the peremptory and insulting order which followed, the patient ventured a word of self-defense. Tnis was to; much! The attendant is not to be answered by a patient! She seizes her roughly and drags her upon the floor with extreme violence. The patie.it is roused and defends herself, or at tempts it. We are summoned to the attend ant's assistance, and find her—a large and heavy woman—resting her whole weight upon the invalid's body, with her knees upon her stomach, and with the patient's head as ham mer, the tresses of her hair serving as conve• nient handles, pounding the floor with all her might. To our exclamations and intercessions, we get for reply the assurance that the offend ing victim has ' got the devil In her and I mean to beat It out, Help me Jacket her till 1 get -atistaction out of her,' She put on the Jacket, tied the poor creature's arms behind her, dragged her across the hall to the bars, tie each:band and foot firmly to the bars, tied her knees together, and then seizing her by the hair, again began pounding the bars as at first she pounded tile floor. Her muscle was fearfully effective; every blow gashed the scalp and spirted blood over the walls and the floor and her own person. A great splash fell upon a plate of food one of us chanced to be holding!" Mrs. Packard, who, though perfectly sane, was, through the machinations of some of her relatives, immured In this horrible place, in a published account of her experience, says: Patients are often choked until their faces are black, and their tongues hang out of their mouths. A lady of refinement, of pure and virtuous character, and a nature remarkably true to the instincts of a true woman, before being here thlrty•slx hours, was stripped of all her clothing except a torn chemise, and laid upon her back on the floor, Dr. -sitting astride her naked body while four attendants applied the strap to her quivering limbs !" We had thought that the system of co• ercion and chastisement had been virtually done away with, in public asylums at least. Rose colored reports had led us to believe that those whom Providence had afflicted - with the loss of reason received, at any rate, as much of care and kindness as their 'vacant wandering minds could be brought to appreciate. Illinois has undeceived us. We congratulate that highly civilized and christian State on the possession of an in stitution, which is at once an indelible blot upon the reputation of the country and a burning shame upon the very name of humanity.—Pittsburg Commercial. A Great Tornado In New Jersey The Sussex papers speak of the great tornado which passed through that county on Monday afternoon as a very remarka ble visitation. The Register describes it as "a tornado, or whirlwind, which passed from west to east, through Hampton, New ton anti Andover townships, spreading destruction in its track. Some of our citi zens whose residences are in elevated posi tions, had a fair view of the shape and course of the tornado. It was a dark, huge, funnel-shaped mass, illuminated at inter vals by electric explosions, whirling, sway ing, surging, and forcing its way, rapid in progress and fearful in power. Now veer ing to the right, and anon to the left, plung ing furiously forward and sharply recoil ing, it swept away all that obstructed its course, and by its eccentric evolutions made the path of desolation much wider than its own bulk could have effected had it rolled onward in a straight line." Orieinating in Stillwater township, it ravaged the country in its track, uprooting orchards, destroying fences, leveling forests and scattering buildings for a distance of seven miles, till it reached the confines of Sparta township. From thence Col. Bab bitt's premises became the prey of the ruth less invader, as before stated. The Colonel's loss is not less than $4,000. Onward, onward, rushed the storm-fiend, toying with the obstructions in his way, of whatever character, shattering the dwelling of David W. Stickles, distributing a stack of rye promiscuously among the neighbors, throwing Judge Townsend's out-buildings about as if they were feathers, demolishing a hospitable shanty where several railroad workmen bad congregated, without the slightest notice, breaking the leg of a wo man, giving a cow a free ride in the air, and finally rolling furiously over the Sussex mountains, a distance of six or seven miles, uprooting the trees and demolishing in Its course a small house anti barn ; and preci pitating itself with prodigious force into the valley at the mountain's base, striking the village of Snutllown and whirling to ruin several of the dwellings and outbuildings of that secluded place. The whirling col umn was distinctly witnessed by persons near the Sparta line who saw it as it was approaching, parted in twain—one portion taking a course due east, and the other and larger part diverging a little to the south.— Newark Journal. The Military Strength of France. A Paris letter in the Nord has the follow ing: "Marshal Niel was heard recently in the committee of the Legislative body charged with examining the bill onmilitary organization. That officer, who at the period of the first discussions at the Tuileries had supported a system almost similar to that adopted by the committee, and of which I have already indicated the plan, thought right in presence of the present situation to range himself in favor of the bill and sup port it with all his strength. The Marshal estimates the forces France could at present assemble at from 550,C00 to 600,000 men, which number would be increased to 700,000 if the bill were adopted. The whole of this effective force might be employed in the field ifsteps were at once taken to form a National Guard Mobile. The considerations de veloped by the Marshal do not appear to have prevailed, for the entire Commission, with the exception of one member, has just expressed its opinion that the right of the Chamber to vote the annual contingent should be maintained. An amendment proposed by a deputy of the right, who, in abandoning the vote of the contingent, would confer on the Chamber the right of fixing the number of soldiers who should belong to the active army and the reserve respectively, was supported by only three members.

Tumors and ulcers spread until in 1842, under the advice of my physicians I went to Avon Springs. I received no benefit—tried every medicine and did everything I could• I had to rest my arm on a cushion, and had not been able to raise it to my head for over u year. The discharge from two ulcers was nearly a pint a day. Amputation was recommended; but pronounced dangerous. I could not sleep, and my sufferings were intolerable. A friend brought me an English physician who applied a salve with which ho said he had accomplished ex- • • . . traordlnary cures In the hospitals in England. It commenced to relieve; persisted In its use; It finally , effected a perfect and entire cure. It Is now 1848.
