[From tlie New York Evening Post.]
Horrible Tragedy in New York.
One of the most bloody and horrible trage
dies which ever took place in this city was
eimc ted at 211 West Thirtieth street, last
night. Francis A. Gouldy a young man,
twenty years old, literally butchered the family
undoubtedly killing Lis lather and one servant
girl, inflicting injuries which may prove fatal
to his stepmother, two brothers, and another
servant irirl. and crowuiug the terrible crime
with .self-murder.
The family consisted of Francis Gouldy,
Jane A., his second wife, three sons, Francis
A., the homicide ; Nathan fourteen years old;
Charles Wesley, five years old ; a daughter,
Mary Eliza fifteen : two small children, two
and four years old and two servant girls, Eliza
beth Carr and Joanna Murphy.
it appears that the young man Francis iiad
contracted some habits which displeased his
father, lie was out too late at night and
wanted too much money. His father refused
to give him a night key, but would get np and
let him in when he came home of nights and,
perhaps rebuke him for his unseasonable hours.
It is stated also, that Frank, as he was called,
yesterday took a bank book from his father's
drawer, which the gentleman pronounced no
better than stealing.
Whatever the provocation or cause, Frank
went home nbont ten o'clock last night. The
family had retired witli the exception of the
father, who was sitting in a front room on the
second floor. Ilis wife was in bed in the room
adjoining in the rear, and the two small child
ren were in a crib in the room with their
mother.
Mrs. Gouldy says that as Frank came in she
was just retiring, and lie said to her, "Why,
mother, are you up yet ?" " Yes, Frank," was
the reply, "lam up yet." He then passed
into the room where Mr. Gouldy was and she
heard some unpleasant words pass between tlie
two, and finally heard a heavy fall on the
floor. She had just cot into bed, and thought
to herself. " Is it possible Frank lias struck
his father ? " and at that moment Frank came
into her room, partially raised the netting from
around the be l, and dealt her a heavy blow
on the head with a hatchet. She screamed
and sprang up, and he repeated the blow twice
tvheu she fell heavily to the floor, breaking
down the netting as she fell.
The murderer then passed through the hall
bed-room, where his two brothers slept. They
had both got up hearing the noise, and he
struck each a murderous blow on the head
with the same hatchet he had used upon his
father and mother. He left them bot,h prostrate
and covered with blood, and passed ou to the
stairs and ascended to the third flour.
The apartments on the third floor were oc
cupied by himself, his sister Mary and the
two servants. The servants had heard the
noise and were in the hall of the upper floor as
lie went up stairs. lie immediately attacked
them with the same fatal hatchet prostrating
each with a frightful blow upon the head.
Mary, bearing the struggles and screams
of the servants, opened the door and, looking
out saw the girls covered with blood but did
not recognize her brother. Relieving it to be
a burglar, she locked her door and remained
in her room. Had she known it was her
brother, she would have rushed out, in which
case she would probably have been murdered.
After committing this series of atrocious
crimes, it is believed the homicide went down
stairs, pulled off his boots and coat, and donned
slippers and morning gown, in which costume
he returned to his room.
But Mary meantime, had not been idle.—
She had raised her window and cried " mur
der !" And officers Morehouse and Hull, of the
Twentieth Ward Police, who were standinsr on
the corner of ninth avenue and Thirty-first
street, heard her cries.
They immediately went to the house, but
the door was locked, which delayed their en
trance for some time ; but they succeeded with
some labor in forcing the door.
It is probable that Frank heard them and
found that he was detected. Be this as it may,
before they found him he took a three-shooter
which was heavily loaded, and placing the
muzzle to his head fired. The ball entered
above the right ear and passed out just over
eye, causing instantaneous death.
The alarm having been given, the neighbors
rushed to the spot, and beheld a scene of blood
and horror too painful to describe.
The father lay npon the floor entirely uncoil
scions with his face and head bathed in blood.
In the next room the mother lay helpless, and
in the hall bed-room the two hoys were pros
trate, ami one of them senseless, and in the
upper hall the two servants lay also covered
with blood, one of them tossing her arm in
delirium ; while the author of the appalling
tragedy lay lifeless on the floor cf own room,
still grasping the fatal pistol in his right hand.
The two small children and Mary were the
only ones unharmed. As the affrighted neigh
bors passed through the room in which the
crib was, the little girl, two years old, sprang
up and said pleasantly, " I am not hurt."
The carpets and furniture in every room
through which the murderer had passed, were
stained with blood.
Mr. Gouldy the father, was struck upon the
left side of his skull, in two places, the axe en
tering into the substance of the hraui. The
]>atient is wholly unconscious, and all probabil
ity cannot recover. Mrs. Gouldy, the mother,
who is enceinte, received three wounds npon
the head, two of which were scalp wounds,
from one to two inches in length. The third
wound penetrated the substance of the brain
about two inches above the right ear. Hopes
are entertained of her recovery.
The boy Nathan received a blow on the
right side of his head cutting up the scalp for
three inchc* and detaching a large piece of the
temporal bone. Ilis condition is also extreme
ly critical. Consciousness however, is perfect.
Charlie the boy of Gve, received a blow
about an inch and a half from the median line,
near the vertex, which communicated with the
substance of the brain. The condition of the
patient is comfortable, but dangerous.
The girl Elizabeth Carr, was dangerously
wounded and probably cannot recover. Indeed
the condition of all the victims of this unnatu
ral crime is extremely critical, and it would not
be a matter of surprise if none of them should
recover.
Mr. Gouldy is ahont fifty years of age. Tie
is a trustee in the Methodist Ctinrcfi of which
Ilev. Mr. Crawford, the man who was shot at
in his pulpit Jy an insane man, a week ago
last Sunday evening, is pastor. lie was
formerly a lumber merchant, and had retired
from business with an ample fortune. He was
esteemed by his church as an exemplary
Christian au<l by all who knew him, as an ii|>
right and honoruble citizen. His wifo and
d.mghtev, we believe, arc also member; of the
same church.
Frank, the murderer, was awakened by the
revival last winter, and joined the church on
probation, or "on trial," as it is more general
ly railed Hilt lie soon apparently lost all in
terest in religion, and returned to the habits
which his father hoped he had renounced for
ever It is sakl his father has urged hint to
attend family prayer in the evening, but that
he has of late refused to do so. But Frank
is s|H)kcn of by former acquaintances a " good
fellow." They say he was never regarded as
a bad young man although he was rather wild.
Others say the family feared his habits would
lead him to some desperate act.
It is, of course,'impossible to conceive any
adequate motive tor this wholesale and horrid
butchery Two theories are presented : one,
that he killed his father for the fancied injuries
he had received at his hands and frenzied by
the bloody deed killed all that came in his way.
Another is, that he intended to leave no wit
nesses of his crime and no heirs to his father's
fortune, and hading that he had not succeeded
either in destroying the whole family or in con
cealing the evidences of his guilt, killed himself
as soon ns he heard the officers enter.
THE THIRTIETH STREET TRAOEOY. —The ac
counts as to the condition of the Gouldy fami
ly continue more favorable. Mr Gouldy was
conscious all day yesterday. He knows that
lie has been the victim of some violent assault,
i but has manifested no inquisitiveness in the
: matter. He occasionally asks for Frank, but.
the conversation is directly turned by his friends
to something else. On Saturday lie gave di
rections as to the way in which he wanted a
j silver ice-pitcher fixed. 11 is right arm and
j side are still paraljzed from the effect of the
; injury to his brain. Notwithstanding his
marked improvement, his physicians do not
consider that the critical period in his case has
yet arrived. Mrs. Gouldy is fust recovering.
; The boy Nathaniel is doing well, and the symp
toms of erysipelas have entirely disappeared.
( Charley is improving rapidly. The servant
, girls are both much better. In several of the
Churches, yesterday, reference was made to
this schocking tragedy.— Daily Times. Nor. 1.
Tlie Governor's Thanksgiving Proclama
tion.
The following is the Proclamation of Gov
ernor Packer respecting Thanksgiving:
J [r.. s.~] In the name and by the authority of
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
WILLIAM F. PACKER, Governor of the said
: Commonwealth.
A PROCLAMATION
FELLOW CITIZENS: —The goodness of God
to us as a people calls for our public acknowl
edgement and our grateful praise. The past
and the present are crowded with His blessings.
Nothing has occurred to imperil the principles
of civil and religious liberty upon which our
Government is based, or to interfere with its
harmonious operations in nil departments. We
are at peace with all foreign nations, and the
noise of violence is unheard within our borders.
While all enjoy perfect freedom of opinion, the
genial influences of our free institutions, and
the mild spirit of our holy religion, are more
uniting us in one brotherhood. Our education
al institutions are diffusing intelligence among
the masses of our citizens, inducing a higher
appreciation of their privileges, and a deeper
sense of their obligations. Though in some lo
calities the pestilence has prevailed, our coun
try at large has enjoyed unusual health, and
we are blessed with an abundance of all the
necessaries and comforts of life. Our indus
trial pursuits are fast recovering from the tor
por induced by the recent financial embarras
meats ; confidence is being restored, and busi
ness is resuming its wonted activity. Mercies
crown all onr relations in life, and the hopes
of a glorious immortality wait to cheer and
bless every heart.
Prompted by my own convictions of duty,
and in conformity with the expressed wishes of
many of my fellow citizens. I, WILLIAM F.
PACKER, Governor of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania, do hereby appoint Thursday
the Kightcenth d ' y of November next, to lie ob
served as a day of general Thanksgiving and
Prayer, ami recommend to all our people that
setting aside on that day all worldly pursuits,
they assemble in their respective places of wor
ship, and unite in offering thanks to God for
His goodness, imploring Ilis gracious forgive
ness, and the continuance of His mercies.—
And while our hearts throb with gratitude to
God for Ilis unnumbered blessings, let a liber
al charity be extended to all upon whom have
been laid the burdens of misfortune and want.
Given under my hand and the Great Seal of
State, at Jlairisbtirg, this 28th day of Oc
tober, in the year of our Lord one thousand
eight hundred and fifty-eight, and of the
Commonwealth the eighty-third.
By the Governor: WM. M. HIESTER,
Secretary of the Commonwealth.
A MAN MI ST HE TRIED BY TWELVE JURORS.
—The Court of Appeals, New York, has
awarded u new trial to Cancemi, convicted of
| murder, because he was tried by eleven jurors
j only, though the prisoner assented to this ar
rangement. The Court however, holds that
j trials for crimes must take place as the law
prescribes, and the State has an interest in
; preserving the lives and liberties of its citizens
ami will not allow a surrender of them. If a
| deficiency of one juror could be allowed, a
1 deficiency of eleven might abso be permitted,
| or the trial be committed to the Court alone,
an innovation which would destroy the institu
tion of trial bv jury. Cancemi has been tried
three times ; twice he was convicted, and the
verdict set aside, and once tlie jury disagreed.
He now has another chance for his life.
To DYSPEPTICS. —Soda, Magnesia, and all
Alkalies, either afford but temporary relief, or
confirm the disease into a chronic affection.—
The Oxygenated Bitters immediately relieve
and permanently cure all forms of Dyspepsia,
i and stomach difficulties.
GEN. CAMERON. —The Bedford Inquirer,
noticing the movement in favor ot Gen Came
ron ns a candidate for the Presidency says :
" Cameron's name is a tower of strength, and
his nomination would be the forerunner of a
glorious victory for the cause of the people."
Ax OI.P LINF. Wruo.—A gentleman of St.
Louis, probably Edward Bates, who at one
time considered it an honor to lie styled " An
Old Line Whig," luis lately become disgusted
witli the abuse of the term. He gave a de
finition, says the Democrat, of what he consid
ers an ' Old Line Whig " of the present day.
1 lie says he is a man who takes Ins liquor re
gularly and votes the Democratic ticket occa
sionally.

ELECTIONS. —On Tuesday last, there were
elections held in seven States—Dcleware, Illi
nois, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey,
Xew York and Wisconsin. These elections
determine the political complexion of the
House, and the poobability is that there will
be a majority against the Democratic party.
We are obliged to go to press without any
information as to the result of these elections.
It will probably be some days before satisfac
tory returns are received.
fi@-We have (Wednesday nion) a report
that New York has gone Republican by over
20,000 majority. John Arnot, in the Chemung
district, probably defeated for Congress. In
Tioga, the Republican County ticket elected,
except Sheriff.
Seed" We have highly important intelligence j
from Oregon, in a letter from Lieut. TYLER, of I
the Army, to his father residing in Hartford.
Conn, The nous is fifteen days' later than any ;
other received from that region, and was ex- i
pressed to Fort Taylor, on the Snake River, :
near Walla Walla, by Indian runners. He
states that the Spoknn and I'elouse Indians
had been defeated, after two days' fighting— i
the Spokati Chief being captured by tlie troops I
and nine hundred horses having been taken !
from the Releases. All the plunder which had
been taken Irom Col. STEPTOF.'S command in I
his unfortunate affair with the Indians had
been recovered, even to Col. SrEi'TOE'S pistol,
which was found on the person of an Indian
who was killed. The Army did not lose a man.
Lient . TVI.ER considers the war in that quarter
at an end—the Indians begging for peace, and
complying with all the demands of the United
States authorities. Tiiis letter is believed to
bo the only one of so late a date which came
through by the last. California steamer.

MINNESOTA. —The St. Paul Jfinnesotian is of
opinion, from the latest returns, that the next
Legislature will be probably Republican on
joint ballot, the Democrats having a small ma
jority iu the Senate, and the Republicans a
larger one in the House. It will be Anti-Le
compton in both Houses. The present Legis
lature is strongly Democratic.
ftaT* A shooting affray was enacted, on
Tuesday night last, in the vicinity of Shepards
Creek, some two or three miles from this vil
lage—disgraceful in its origin and probably
fatal in its character—at the house of John
Ticknor, whose respectability is a matter of
question in the commnuity, from his notorious
conduct while a resident here. John Y. 11a
gadorn, who gave Ticknor a most brutal horse
whipping some time since in our street*, in
company with some particular comrades—who
are unknown to the public—took occasion, un
der the cover of darkness, to attack his house
—for w hat object or design is as yet unexplain
ed satisfactorily,but there is no donbt but what
the intent was bad—and demanded admission.
No sooner was the demand made than it was
responded to by the report of fire-arms The
shooting was in the house, the balls passed i
through the door and two of them took effect
upon the person of Hagadoru, one entering his
breast and the other piercing one of his shoul
ders. The party without then retreated, car
rying with them their wounded companion,
who is still alive, though in a dangerous con
dition. It is supposed that Tickuor did the
filing.— Wacerly Advocate.
RUNNING A BEND. —A good thing occurred
at Warren between an old Democratic luui
beman and Senator Bigler, the morning after
latter had made his recent speech there. The
court room had been very wafm, and jn&t at
the point in his speech where Mr. B was
trying to justifiy his own and Mr. Gillis' votes
in favor of Lecompton, the sweat poured off of
him in fine style. The next morning, the old
lumberman remarked to Mr. B. that he ap
peared to be very warm last Digitt. . Senator
Bigler replied that he was very warm indeed,
it was very oppressive. "But,'"'said the lum
berman, " yon shouTtPliave done as we dp on
the river in a bard job, take your coat off.''—
" Do yon always take yonr coat off," said Big*

said he, " but we nhrnys do in a tight spot—

An Encounter with Robbers. —The Bureau
of Indian Affaird is in receipt of intelligence
from the Utiippewa Agency, under date of Oct
l"th t wlUch alludes to an attempt made to rob
the Superintendent of Indian Affairs, Colonel
Cullen, on his way thither to pay over to the
tribes the annuities due them. Col, C. had in
his pc-seaaioiHabout $40,000, and was uce<>in- •
panied by Hon. W. \V. Kinsbury and Mr.
Farrington. The outrage occurred at Little
Falls, near the Junction of flie Mississippi and
Crow Wing rivers, where Col. C. and his com
pany had stopped all night on their way to the
Agency. Mr. Farrington was awake guarding
the money in the hotel, and about one o'clock
at night a party of robbers made an attack
upon the hotel. One of their number fired a
shot through the window, narrowly missing
Mr. F.'s head ; and at the sauietime others of
the party made a rnsh from the bar-room to the
door of the room w here the money was. Mr.
F. immediately drew his pistol, and kept the
