BANTA FE, New Mexico, Nov. 2d, 1867.—The
people of Philadelphia and Pennsylvania, as
well as those of the whole country, are interested
in, the prosecution of those great enterprises
' that are so soon, with ribs of iron , to connect
the eastern and western extremes of our conti
nent, and anything regarding their progress is
looked for with avidity by those who haVe the
good of the whole country at, heart.
The Union Pacific Railway, Eastern Division,
will soon be Completed to Pond Creek, in Kansas,
where the authority and aid of the Government
cease. It is the intention of the Company, at
the approaching session of Congresa, to apply to
that body for authority to extend their road from
Pond Creek, or some ,other point, In a south
westerly direction, through to the Pacific, asking
at the same time for anck a loan of Government
bonds as shall be necessary to assist in its con
struction. It is also tile what and intention of
the Company to thaish a branch of the road to
Denver, in Colorado. -
The engineering parties of 'the Railway Com
pany, after having completed their surveys from
Pond Creek and Fort Harker, in Kansas, to the
Rio Grande, in the Territory of New Mexico, are
now pushing through Western New Mexico
and Arizona, on the 35th parallel and Gila routes,
to the Pacific coast, expecting to reach an Fran
cisco some time durle.g the month of February
next. Instead of 'meting with the insurmount
able difficulties through the mountains of the
Rocky range that were predicted, the engineer
discovered a most excellent route from the
initiative of their survey to the Rio Grande. The
low attitude of the mountain passes will permit
the building of a road over the range with but
slielit grades, compared with more northern
localities, while timber in quantities sufli
dint for purposes of road construction was
found. What is of much greater importance,
vast beds of bituminous coal, equal to those of
Pennsylvania in quality, were discovered along
the line of survey. Immense deposits of the
finest magnetic iron and excellent limestone
also exi-t. so that if the Company desired. It
could turn out its own rails for the road. Labor
is also sufficient in New Mexico to construct and
operate the road for half its entire length. In
addition to all of these advantages to which I
have referred may be added the great one of
mehlhow of climate. It will be possible to ope
rate the road (either on the 35th parallel or the
Gila route ) during the entire winter season,
without hindrance from heavy snows or severe
cold. This line of railway will have tributary
to it a population of nearly half a million souls,
and a country that is unsurpassed in its mineral,
agricultural and pastoral resources.
Within a short period of time there have been
several important discoveries of mineraLs, but un
til a railroad is finished, so that the proper ma
chinery for working the mines and ores can be
introduced at a comparatively cheap rate, no ex
tensire mining will be prosecuted. The mount
ains of New Mexico abound in the precious and
baser metals, but capital is needed for their right
development. The quartz mills already in op
eration at Pins Altos and the Placer mountains
are yielding finely, and more mills of a similar
character will soon be in operation. The gulch
and placer diggings of the Moreno mountains,
in the northeastern part of the territory, discov
ered during the past season, bid fair, when suffi
cient water is introduced by a ditch, the coming
season, to eclipse any heretofore found in this
part Of the comity:
The Indians in Now Mexico it present - are in
a comparative state of quiet, but are liable at any
time to begin their depredations. Instead of a
letter of this general character, I shall in my next

FROM HOLLIDAYSBURG, PA.
(Correspondence of the PlilLuilelohla Evening Bulletin.]
lico.i.inAysarno, Nov. 18, 1867.—A serious ac
cident occurred, this afternoon at Hemphill's
iron foundry. Two of the hands, named John
Myers apti James London, were engaged In
handling some heavy castings, when a large
piece of machinery fell on them, crushing Myers
to death, and very seriously injuring. London.
They are both unmarried men. The accident
occurred almost on the very spot where Judge
McFarlane lost his life in a similar way, a few
years since.
William Johnson, the old counterfeiter who
was pardoned by A. J. recently, was from this
place. Ile•had only served about two months
out of his sentence of seven years in the Western
Penitentiary. Counterfeiters have an easy time
with our remarkable Executive.
A large and destructive fire took place at
Ebensburg on .Batarday night last, and on
Sunday a fine farm-house near here was con
sumed with all its contents, including about .500
in money.
This place is rapidly Improving. A large and
handsome seminary Is nearly 'finished for male
and female pupils. The water-works are also
nearly completed, with fire-plugs well distri
buted through the town, and the mains so laid
that every house may be supplied with'pure and
wholesome water. Two nail factories are in suc

2,060 kegs weekly. - Two fine, large rolling mills
arc runnin, and doing an excellent business.
Two hot blast furnaces are turning out a large
amount of metal daily. Churches and schools
are. plenty. Stores are in abundance, and beer
shops are "too numerous to mention." With all
these advantages, only one thing we yet lack, a
good Republican majority. With this blessing

THE DICKENS EXCITEILENT.
Arrival of Dlr. °Charles Dickens at
Boston—llls Readings to Commence
in Boston on the 2d and in New
%ork on the 9th of December.
BOSTON. Nov. 19.—The great event ln Boston to-day has
been the arrival of Charles Dickens from Europe per the
steamer Cuba.
Through the agency of the telegraph, announcements
were made which gave currency to the belief that the
Cuba and the distinguished novelist would arrive in the
middle of the afternoon, and although there was no pub
lic ovation or demonstration contemplated, a crowd of
several thousand persona assembled around the wharf
where the steamer was expeCted and. in spite of the in
clement weathor,remained until the failure of their de
sire was assured. if she had made her time the Cuba
and Mr. Dickens would have been in Boston at three
o'clock, and inasmuch as there was tho unusual interrup
tion of half a dozen hours from Halifax, the fears of a
disaster were not without some shadow of foundation.
At about halt plug seven o'clock, however, it was am
nounced from the Old Rate I louse news room that the
Cuba was approaching Hull, on her course to Boston, and
that she had been boarded by the United States tugboat
II annihal Hamlin and Mr. Dickens taken on board. The
tugboat proceeded immediately to Boston, and arrived at
Long Wharf in about an hour, and full half au hour in
advance of the Cuba.
Among those who were onboard the tugboat were Mr.
Dolby, the agent of Mr. Dickens; Collector Russell, of the
port of Boston; Oliver Wendell Holmes, General Kier.
win, Lion. Josiah Quincy. James Fields, of the publishing
firm of Ticknor .t Fields, and several other literary
celebrities. After the customary greetings and con
gratulationsa repast was served on board the Hamlin,.
and when it was finished she had arrived at her dock in
Boston. Ihe party then took carriages and proceeded
immediately to the Parker House, where Mr. Lickens will
remain until hie departure for New Yolk.
The first series of his readings will begin in Tremont
Templeon the evening of December 2, and his first in
New York will be given on the evening of the 9th.
Mr. Dickenses's voyage from Liverpool to Boston was one
of uninterrupted.pleasure, and, while .deelfeleg for the
present all public ovations, he nevertheless feels pro.
foundly gratified for the many manifestations of wel
come which the American people have already snowed
toward him. Mr. Dolby, his advance agent, has already
disposed of sonic eight thousand tickets to hie first series
of Boston readings, and there is no apparent diminution
in the number of applicants. A considerable number of
them Wave probably been bought up by speculators.

Murder and Suicide.
• [From the Cleveland Herald, Nov. 18.1
The molt terrible tragedy that has ever taken place in
this city was brought to light on Saturday morning, a 4
hough the precise time of lta occurrence will probably
never be known. James IL Gregory, proprietor of the
photographic rooms over No. P, Public Square,. and a
young woman named Isabella Roy, who was in his mu
ploy,were both found dead in the rooms above mentioned,
the latter haring been shotand the former with his throat
cut in the moat frightful manner.
711 F. DISCOVERY.
The person who first diecovered the shocking crime
which had been perpetrated was the wife of Air. Gregory.
Nearly a year ago. Gregory decided to set up in buainees
for Maned!, and Aght the establishment In the third
story of HeWitre store. He had a faunly. consisting of a
wife and one daughter eight or tenyears of age. He had
buried one boy. to whom reference is made as "Willie" In
the letter found upon hie person after his death, which we
publish below.
n otelations existing between Gregory
and his wife had for some time been of the moat
friendly character. He was a passionate man.and it was
frequently charged by his wife that. he was cruel In his
treatment of her. At her instance, he was arrested and
fired before the Police Court. about a year ago, for abuse
and threats -
Gregory had in him employ. at the rooms, a young wo
man named Isabella Roy, who lived with her parents
upon the "Weft Bide/ flhe bad been engaged with him
some six litionths, during the former portion of which time
4te boarded at home. Crider the plea that the distance
"awed her late appearance lb the Morning, Gregory in
duced her to board at his honk>, awl tthey accompanied
each other to and from his piles of businetv. An inti
macy sprang up between them, which at length grew to
he of a questionable character. To the wife this seemed
to bode no good. and she remonstrated with him upon the
subject, but without avalL
On Friday. morning Mr. Gregory and Miss
J Roy-left
home all usual taking With them a basket containing
their dinner. D the evening they did not retain, and
Men. Gregoryopent a night of the rtiott painful anxiety
and alarm.. On Saturday morning she could bear it no
longer, and determined to visit the rooms and ascertain
the cause of their absence. As she entered, upon the
door lay the ghastly eorpse the husband and father,
Ids throat cut, and large pools of blood at different places
in the room. For a moment she was frozen with an
agony of grief and terror, and thenyuglied out screaming
.1 Imo* tin state of frantic delirium. The occupants of
he adjoining rooms and persons upon the street were
.larmed,and in a few moments the rooms were thronged
with horror-stricken spectators.
A t first, only the corpse of Gregory was seen, and no
one supposed that there was another yet dasher chapter
to the brutal crime—tbat a defenceless woman had been
brutally murdered before the counuismion of the suicidal
act.
There war a waste room above, and as thig Irma but
dimly lighted, a candle was nerenary In order to discover
u but it contained. Several persona entered, and were
thrilled with terror ar they beheld, lying at the foot of the

to be lvabella, boy.

fron,lthe eorpse,reac fly suggested the means of her death
f he appearance of the corwe indicated that she had been
-.hot upon the stairway, and had fallen to the floor, and
wee left in that paition by her murderer. She was fully
dressed. but her clothing was much dLtarranged, and the
:over limbs exposed ft on] the knees downward. The
clothin, even to thr. stockings, was soiled with blood.
g
Before leaving her the murderer had doubtless thrown
the sba the one . •which she daily wore—over her, as if
to hide from his own eyes the horrid work o his hands.
. . . . . . .
The precise manner in which the crime was accept.
pH. bed can never be known. Near the top of the stair
way. in the wall, were tour or five holes, evidently made
by * bullets. The circumstances indicated that when the
helpless gill becau le aware of the intention of 0 regorv,
that the was alone with a man maddened by rage. jeal
ousy, and all the baser passions, who was intent upon
taking her lile, she endeavored to avail herself of the only
possible avenue of escape, by theskyllflit at the head
of its emblem", to the roof, rosary having
locked the entrance door,and placed the ey in his pocket.
The terrified girl ilew up the dark stairway, but was =-
Able to go further. and then, in all probability, he dis
charged-several shots at his victim without effect A sub
seem nt examination of the body showed that the fatal
bullet had entered the left temple, and must have caused
Instant death. The face was blackened as if by powder,
and it is supposed that the fiend incarnate, bent upon the
full accompMbment of his purpose.after the ineffectual
eh obi, went up to her, placed the muzzle of tho weapon
directly against her head, and finished his bloodyvkiirk..
From a bulletl hole in the face of Gregory,. just below
the nose,it is evident that his first attempt at self destine
don was made with the pistol, probably with the only re
maining charge in the weapon. Through his nervous.
nem and exOtemsnt, he erred in his sins, and the wound .
inflicts d was not a fatal one. Ho intended, doubtless, to
kill himself with that instrummit, but had expended five
of the shots before succeeding in the murder of
the girl. and wan then compelled to
finish the work with a knife. That he had resorted to
the latter means only through necessity. is proved by the
feet that the only knife found was a email pocket knife.
1 hie was found lying upon the floor of the operatingrome,
six or eight feet from the body of Gregory . . The - blades
were all dull, and ho could only have carried out his de
sign by great effort, goaded en by the frenzy of ddspe
ration. The frighful gash in his throat also indicated
this, as it was rough and jagged, and the physi.
clans, after examining it, stated that ho must
have drawn the knife across his throat at least
i oor or five times. In case there was an interval of time
between the murder of the girl and the suicide, ho must
\
have gone ack into the room in which she lay to shoot
himself, as e pistol lay near her. If this took place
Immediately f ter the girl's death, he most have written
the letter be ehand. In anticipation of his crimes,
showing a cool eliberation, which could only be the
result of a firmly settled determination.
CIEEGOIIV'S CONFESSION.
After the arrival of the coroner, and the summoning of
a jury, the pockets of the dead man wore emptied of their
contents. These con dated of the key to the rooms, a
pocketbook, containing about $lBO in money, a paper in
which were wrapped about a dozen bullets of a size cor.
responding with the revolver, a memorandum book, a
number of photographs, several miscellaneous articles,
and a letter written by Gregory, giving all the positive
information that can ever be known, regarding the crime.
It was written, evidently, with a nervous, trembling
hand, upon a cheat of common note paper, covering nearly
two pages. The writing was in some places almost unin
telligible, and the orthography very inaccurate. The fol.
lowing is an exact copy of the letter, except the correc
tions in the spelling:
2b whom this may concern: -
I have waded through trouble for many years, ands
worked bard that I might receive thanks, but all in vain,
sit ce Mrs. Gregory has borne false witness against me,
had me locked up in prison under false pretence, which
often makes me do things I would not have done. I hope
God will pardon me for this horrid crime, for I have done
it to put an end to my trouble. This Miss Roy brought mo
into this hint crime which I can't unfold. I
wish for Mr. Pugh to select a piece of ground
in Woodland Cemetery and take Willie
up, place him beside me lathe grave, and this girl in the
asme grave beside me, and leave room for Mrs. Gregory
and my little girl next to me. Put me in the deadhouse
first; don't let the doctors have me. Here b two hundred
dollars to pay my expenses; jhendivide. an between
Mrs,. Gregory and Ida Bell. Pugh has alw nye been
my friend. - I want him to see to this. Farewell to thin
world of trouble!
There was no signature to the letter. ,The handTritilit

The &publican gives by way of explanation of the
above:
• .
For the benefit of our Republican friends of the North
who may not be acquainted with the status of the gentle
men whose names are appended to this significant letter,
we deem ft of importance to state that sad them aro
men of unimpeachable integrity and the highest moral
character--planters whose word is deemed as good as their
bond, and who have reluctantly, and only as (fernier
resort; consented to invoke the attention of the military
authorities to .the perilous condition of affairs in their
immediate neighborhood. One of the gentlemen (Colonel
Lloyd 'NW Advil) is an ex-Federal officer whose repute.
Lien for gallantry on the field of battle 'has never been
questioned. -
The statue of Mr. Everett was placed in position in ' the
Public Gardeu, Boston, on Monday last. lion. (Aeries G.
Loring was first designated to prepare an address for the
inauguration ceremonies, and after his decease ex-Gov
ernor Andrew was selected to fill his place. Under these
extraordinary circumstances, and from the lateness of the
season, the committee determined to dispense with public
ccretnoniel.
. . .. ..
The stet to isplaced upon a pedestal of free stone. op
posite the middle entrance to the-Public Garden from
Beacon street and the figure is in a volition facing Bea
con etreet The pedestal and. figure make a height of
seventeen feet, the figure itself being about half that
height 'I he deelini is by Wm, W. eitory. and the statue
le in bronze. east in Munich by Ferdinand Miller. On the
pedestal in front are the simplEVEltEe inscriptions--
EDWARD TT,
Born April 11, 17N, •
Died Jan. 15. 1865.
The figure is in the position of making a public address,
the right aria extended upward and backward, and the
left foot fox ward, with the mouth slightly open. 'rho first
impression will probably be somewhat of disappointment
to moat people in the likeness, but the view on the left,
of the statue is the more favorable, and a simple profile
view from the right will be admitted to be unexception
able. The dress he that of the style usually worn by Mr.
Everett, a frock-tout, buttoned.. being tiro upper gar
ment. The pantaloons have not quite the clumsy, appear.
since ,of those in the Webster statue. , . • :
