GIEOII4OI. JI nother Assassination by the lin. K inx-Klan—Dr. Harden Murdered in the Presence of his Family—Over 150 Pistol Balls Fired into his Body. The New York Tribune contains the following fuller account of a tragedy already announced : ATLANTA, Ga.„ March 14. —The Ku-Klux WSW sins are again at work. Dr. George W. Darden, I li s highly respectable and weal citizen, and a w 11-known loyalist of Warren county, had a y I aonal difficulty some days sin which resulted 211 his ebootlng a man named Wa ace. editor of the Ku-Klag journal at Warrenton. He istmedi stelY surrendered to the civil authorities, and was placed - in jail on Friday last. Sheriff Norris', Searing Darden would be unsafe there, called on the better class of citizens to act as a posse to guard thetall over night, but the citizens declined act. being , overawed , by a band of Ku-Slux numbering aboutloo, who took Immediate pos seesion of the town. They then demanded the keys of the jail from the Sheriff, and on his re fusal to deliver , them .their demonstrations be came so violent that he was compelled to seek safety in flight, taking , the keys with him. The band then, at midnight, returned to the jail, and broke into it. Fearing that Dar den had a pistol, the cowardly assassins built a Are at the doorway and , smoked hlm out. Dr. Darden asked time to make a wilt which was granted. He was then enout, and, In pres ence of his wife and ehlldren,,barbarouslY tsar dered by these savages, not less than one hun dred and fifty pistol balls piercing his body. The 33heriff is now here, asking a military protection for his county and his own life. Since the assas sination of _the Sheriff . of Richmond county at the,',November election, , this man Is th e only Republican Sheriff left in the State. An attempt was made to assassinate Darden last September, and warrants wore obtained by ; him against certain parties, which warrants were in the hands of the present Sheriff for service, when he (Norris), was waylaid and wounded in Decem ber. Thenounty of Warren is the headquarters of the Su-Klux for alit surrounding counties, and it Is in this section that the out raga and 'murders upon Republicans 'have been most frequently committed. Application has repeatedly and continually been made by the c IviFauthorities to the military for protection and. assistance in that section, but without avail. Bow mneh longer must we wait for the organiza tion Of a legal and loyal Legislature that will pass laws to protect our lives, and which the. military, under orders'of a loyal President, can amid' In. carrying out?.. —"Arthur Sketchley has recovered his spirits sufficiently to make a joke, and here it is: "Mrs. .says Brown . says we have bad such "mischievous' ' pies all through the winter that ' she doubts whether the Equinoctial gales will be ~Equally. noxious." . . . • , I , , ;,. •, , . . . ... ~..=, ... . _..

Items from salt` Lake City. From late numbers of the Salt Lake City Re porter we clip the following: - MORMON CHARITY. The disgusting feature of the Mormon system is its utter want of charity. Let, a man leave their church, or differ with them in doctrine, though he do so ever so honestly , and eonscien tiously, he at once becomes a target for all the abuse a foul-mouthed priesthood can heap upon him, while every epithet a vile fancy can sbggest is applied even to his wife and children. Wo would naturally think that woman's character would be spared in a Christian country, that a Church would at - least keep a decent silence where it could not ap prove. Bat let any woman withdraw from their communion, or exercise her own God given judg ment as to her faith and associations, and the hounds of the Hierarchy will leave no words an said .to blast her reputation forever.. No words in the English language ere harsh enough to fitly characterize the meanness of such warfare as this; and yet It is just what is done in the case of every young Mormon Isdy who thinksfor herself. In one case within our knowledge, a lady of un blemished life and purity, whose many virtues and excellencies are undoubted, has been pursued for years this magenta slander; till half of the young Mormons of her former acquaintance are led to believe that she wee ruined frOm the dsyshe began to associate with the Gentiles. The Mormon teachers have it in their power to ruin the repu tation and often to blast the prospects Of almost any young woman brought up among them; and that they use this power cruelly, basely and un justly is one, of the darkest stain' upon their so cial system. • A HEIWREVRIATION SALT LAKE Corr, Feb. 22, 1869.—Editor porter..—l 6 , seems to me Important 16 otnarcenll- -- este to yon a revelation - just reielved by one ...of , my iftWthort friends._ The man told ma in all sincerity, that Joseph romithappeared to Mm fn vision and declared with emphatic .words• that Polygamy should be carried on heneeforth and forever on the female elde oleo; thatis,- that any Mururoa woman can take or have sealed to her by theßigh` Priest of the Latter-daViaintt, as many htusadri as she can *import, This new revelation seems to, be on the principle that spar israltop for_the Voider , Is mum for the goose, and. to: my part, I believe , It consistent the Mormon religion. Why not a woman have a dozen husbands as well as a husband a dozen wives? Yours inquiringly. SIGNS Od THE TIMER. LBrigham Young has compered store-keeping saints to paint an eye and a motto, "Holiness to the Lord," oiler their shop doors. .We do not believ e . is profaning the holy name of God for the sake of filthy lucre. To paint a representation of the Deity in the form of a man, holding the lightnings in Ids right hand and a "dumb watch" Wills left, La in our opinion ahnost as bad as to stick "Holiness to the Lord" over cheap calico and decayed codfish. Bat the former has Ibis redeeming quality: it was put up for amusement, it was meant to deceive nobody. I t was a thoroughly honest "take off," while the •k•bull's eye" sign is a profane swindle, a daring attempt at blasphemy, cheating, hypocrisy / and petty meanness all in one. 'lf God does inter fare in the moral order of this world the proprie tors of those swindling signs, will certainly be cursed for inch nee ot•hls name. It is said in fable that the pot occasionally Calla the kettle "a olack thing." On the same principle our Mor mon friends were quite indign ant _ over the new -ig n over the way. &vet al wished to tear it down at once, but Bill Hyde forbade it, and his word seemed - to be law with them. , - We are informed the matter was laid before Brigham and thn.conn- LI on Monday evening, and after afull and rather -avage discussion, it was decided "to let the d—d thing alone, for it was probably put up to cause a fuss." We gladly hall this evidenee of return ing reason on the part of the Hierarchy. A WESTERN CITY. The editor of the Reporter thus describes Con nor City, a city of the 13aint: The location of Connor City is high, dry, healthy, and at the "head of navi,gation" •n Bear river, or where the head will be when-the railroad bridge is built. Whether the company will lay out a town there is quite another question; the public are referred to the "brethren" who have the gifts of "divination" and "speaking in tongues." The refinements have made little pro- great at Connor; they have no bishop, and con et quently no licensed saloon, theatre or harem. There is no news-stand, post-office or barber shop. The citizens wash in the river and comb their hair by crawling throtigh tho, sage bush. ' A private stage is rim from,inis place to Promon tory, passing through Connor. The proprietor calls it a Try-Wetkly, that is, it goes out one week and tries to get back the next. THE CHURCH lIILITANT "The combat thickens; on,ye bravo !" On Sun day evening last the Saints were not a little ,etartled at the command from. the Bishop of, the First Ward to supply themselves with arms. The Bishop said: "The President is anxious that every man should have a firearm of some kind, and plenty of ammunition, And he wants gon to take out new naturalization papers tat once! Them old ones yon took out with Pat Lynch w a en' t - ,accordlq' to law, and ain't no account. Go right off and get good ones at once." What's in the wind, now? Do "the Withering" purpose to et not "civilization," or are they all tabe sworn is as "special police?" Do they thinklof fortify ing Echo Canon again? Or are they going to march on Promontory? Oh, we have it now; they are to be enrolled to swell the ranks of nominal soldiers in the great "Indian war," an nounced in such flaming despatches a few days ago. A thousand soldiers (on paper) give a bet ter showing to ask an appropriation from Con gress, than the six first announced. But they .re to have "votna' papers," too. Is it to out vote the Indians or the Gentiles? Or is it so they can take up land near the railroad? /It is good thing to be an American citizen Blame- Ames. We learn that there has been quite a raid an the gun stores; cold Camp Douglas Muskets ire suddenlytin great demand, and a dozen that we know of have been sold for twice what they were offered at last week. Verily this groweth amusing. The Saints are of Iteecher's opinion when he advised the Eastern emigrants to Kan sas "to take Sharp's rifles and a good supply of Schiedam Schnapps." With "Valley Tan' and condemned muskets they will do great execution —backwards if not in front. As great perhaps as the Mormon bey In 1857, in Echo Canon, ho shot his companion through the head to see- I f hie gun would "carry to the top of the rock.", When "Zion" is supplied with muskets, let the ungodly tremble. . SORE HARD, QUEBTIORS. r As to the social evils growing out of polygaidy, Incest for example, , it le• not oven denied, it is rather advocated. We fling down this charge fair and square to the Mormon papers and epeakers and dare them,to the proof. ,And to pat the matter fairly in issue; we will not argue, but ask these questions: I. Are there not many instances in this Terri tory where a man is married: to the mother and one, two or three daughters? 2. Are there not several men here, each of whom is married to two or three slaters ? 3. Dld not ,one of , the. foremost men of, the , Churth marry a 'WhAow, then get her ;oldest ;eon sent pu airdssion and marry that son's wife while he was gone ? His step-son'swife ? 4. Did not a well-known individual in tills 'Ol4 , marry his half sister, with the consent of Brig- .. ham Young, and live with her as his wife several years ? 5. Has not Brigham Young openly justified , such marriage in the ,pulpit, saying; "the time Might come when brothers would marry their own sisters in, order to . ,,raise np a - 'pure priest= hood ?" • ' O. Did he; or did 1i not, Melia aribstantlalli`, the same statement to Hepworth 'Dixon,,as • set forth-in the tatter's work on this eountry,addlng,• however, that ho "kept' that doctrine to himself pmLm)FiLPHIA, .MONDAY, MARCH 15, 1869. Just now—it was too strong doctrine for the peo ple-? - 7. Have not men here married their,datighters in-law directl y contrary to 'God's word, as laid downin.Deuttronomy Has not the Prosident of the "stake" at Brig ham City two Of his brother's daughters for wives? These are a few.of the questions to be answered. If they are "slanderous" it will be easy to show it. • If dented, we will proceed to offer some proofs.

Two Dead Bleu Lashed to _She Maetsh -Dtackainder of the ere* Loot. The Savannah Newt of the'l2th' says : From Captain H. D. McArthur, of the ship; NicmtuF,which arrived from Liverpool yeaterdaY• we gathered the following part icu la rs concerning A terrible shipwreck: The Captain reports that he left LlYerpool On be 16th of January last,experienclig heavygaies' frOta the west. On the 28d while in latitude 46.45, and longitude 18.22, his attention 11118 at tracted by an object which, on -approaching,- was :amid to be a wreck. The vessel, an American : built brigantine, was water-logged, the bowsprit : ad foretoP masthead were gone, the rigging of he mainmast swinging to and fro, and, the mainmast-head raking forward about;' six' wet. Two men, one white and the other ~rack, and both dead; were seen in the maintop —the former lashed with his back to the dead. eyis of the top-mast rigging, and the latter ihehed to the mast by his lege, with head down, ~ aving evidently s li pp6d from his position and was unable to recover it. A boat was sent' o the, *reek which was boarded, and the two men ex .mined. From eppearances, theyeeuld not have been dead long, but the vessel, from all dream , tenets btought to bear in the formation of 'the opinion bad probably been in this wrecked cow cidenabout fifteen days. With the exception et he two men mentioned, no trace of the crew could be found, and it Is more than probable that hey were either swept from the vessel or took to their boats and were swamped. As the name of the vessel could not be aster rained, an accurate description of her was taken se far as practicable, a tremendous sea running at the tithe, with the hope that' she might be ecognized from It. The description, as given by Captain McArthur, Is as follows :.She was hum (sae, deck fore and aft. This deck had, been 'misted up between the fore and mainmast by the swelling or floating of the Serge, the charac ter of which could not be ascertained, but must have been doatable (probably tizaber)' or else the vessel would have gone - down. She had oo figure head, but in lien thereof was a knee ronnded'ofr; had a half round stern and was sheathed .(perpendicularly). Her house was about twofeet above the deck, With alley-ways 'tinning around. Her wheel Was new; her ischors had Iron stocks, anwere-lashed to the forecastle deck. The top of fer house appeared obe new and made of hard pine. There was ilso new work, about the rails and poop.- The udder, unhting, was hanging in the collar of its •ase. The waves were making a clean sweep cross the middle of ' the wreck; which was float ng heavily. The inside of the cabin had been A ashed out. ILVERE ISTORra ON GEO,R08•8 BANS. Fad Havoc Among the Fishermen. [From the Gloucester (Mass.) Telegraph, Manh 11] The arrivals from George's were very numerous yesterday and the day before, the vessels being to come in ott account of losing their nehors and meeting with other disasters. On iaturday night a severe storm was experienced n the Bank, which ninny old fishermen declare o have been the moat violent ever experienced. 1 was snowing hard, with a high wind, and the tnow, eluttg to lanterns, rigging and sails, form rg perfect snow drifts on deck, while it was .oterly impossible to see the vesserslength on ac ount of the thick storm. The' presence of a arge fleet on the bank made the ,situation ex remely hazardous from the danger of drifting foul of one another, which would be equivalent o instant destruction, and it was necessary to Keep a strict lookout, while a man stood at the hawser all night, hatchet in hand, ready to cut he. cable at the approach of danger. In a large number of cases it was deemed advisable to cut be cables, and a few vessels parted their haw -ere. Bo that of all the arrivals since he storm but few bring in their full complerdents .1 cables and anchors, and any vessels had their decks swept of everythink portable, and lost goats, davits. &c. The loss of cables and anchors was more extensive than in any one storm ever xperienced on George's, and equals the loss in this Fegard of half a dozen ordinary seasons, and will render the fishing;season of 1869 a disastrous one for owners of vessel property. Most of the vessels reported with loss of cable lost whole strings of two hundred fathoms, and will average no hundred and fifty fathoms each, with one or hoth anchors. If the vessels yet to arrive have met with proportional losses, the loss of pro ' erty will exceed $BO,OOO to the Gloucester fteet Atone. Y. TIIS LOSSES [Hero follows a list Of forty-eight Gloucester vessels that have met , with losses ou the trip. ! Several of these and some others lost boats, davits,/ and had bulwarks stove.. These, forty dubt vessels have lost , about 0,800 fathoms of cable and fifty anchors), of a value probably of 11`•20,000,, and the otherlosses will increase the agnrea materially', Vessels are"constantly'coming and very.few are exempt from loss. atiOnio It= Finley McMillan and John McQuarrie, two of the crew of the schooner Harvey C. Mackay, left 'heir vessel. in a dory on Western Bank, on the gild ult., for the purpose of vleiting their trawls, arid a dense fog setting in they became separated from the vessel. The schooner laid by twelve hours and afterwards cruised thirlY-shr hours, in hcipea of finding them, but was unanceessful. - 7 - Tltte FrimlLlng „Privilege.

JOHN B. L. SKINNER, Ist Assistant P. K. General. TO —. SPAIN ADD THE UNITED STATE& ant!etpated Tremble on the Cohan Question. [From the N. Y. World.) IFienurgros, March 14.—Secretary Fish is not unlikely to be confronted by a situation of affairs involving the relations between the United States and the. Government of Spain,which will demand ..ertoue consideration, and which will , require more In/mediate attention than any of the toter erte prqbahle at _present to press upon the Depart ment Of State. 'The various attempts ' Mulip to change the attitude of this government towards the' Provisional Government' , 'of Spain, it • ' direction in which the latteC staple towards the colony of Cuba, have When two form., each of which has drawn the, notice and compelled the remonstrance of . BM Spanish legation at this capital These forms of, attempt are respectively, the reported fitting out of expeditions to aid the Cuban insurgents, and the Introduction on Friday last In the Heetse of ItepresentatiVes by General Santo. the Chair man, of the Committee on Forel-Relations of US, body , of a series of resolutions extending sympathy to, and millinfr for recognition of, the wand rebels at as early a day as eipedLent. The Spanish officials here profess to have infor mation- :that, as far back es December. a metes of expeditions began to be Sited '-out at several ports along our - coast, and -that several more are. now projected; moreover, that some have already set out, and that a. few have sue oeeded ins landing op thetaittnd. They complain that the law ofileere of our goverAlueltt, at New Yolla-Snd New Orient; especially; have beta knowiegly oblivious or blind to the facts of these' expeditions; and that, in some Mee, circum stantial evidence.exists to the effect that Federal . Mitch* have wilfully ,cowed et these ;un friendly attempts. The representatives of the Board& govern memt insist that this theurreetion has been mainly kept alive by this practical-and illegal aid from Pertlee.lll this country; that It has, and ever lum had, no intriesio force, but: W heel' really Main" tAined b. 7 Atutoiluleaslers, chief •of whom is Elenningsen, second in command , in the revolt, and by American arms and American money. It Is represented that the muskets, found in the bands of the insurgents, bear the trade mark of firms in New York City and Connecticut, and that receipts and other papers have been found which prove a constant system of communica tion between the insurgents and adventurers in the States. Evidence is also offered to show that for the 18th of Merck next,. arrangements have been made to send out, in a United States mail steamer, a formidable quantity of improved Springfield arms' to s Cuban port, front the city of New York; that the vender and conveyor of these arms is en officer on the vessel wherein they are to be shipped; that he has had them advanced W him, on credit for a speculation, by an arms mann. facturmg company in that city; and that he has been provided with abundant funds and full In surances by capitalists in this city, In New Or leans, and In New York. These past facts, pre sent movements and future designs are submitted to,be grave grounds for complaint, and to call for remedy and. for prevention. In regard to the resolutions of General Banks, They are held , to be unfriendly in spirit, prema ture in presentation, and based alike upon a mis representation of the resources and the claims of the huntrgents.bWhlle tl i• resolutions in question cannot bind the Executive department of this Ifovernment, and While they are no more than an °refasten of empty and misconceived opinion, it is objected that such an expression of opinion could courteously add judiciously be deferred until the arrival and hearing of the special envoy of the provisional government of Spain, now on the way thy this eity,with discretionaryp owers to treat upon the following questions: The real ex tent of the insurrection as disclosed to the gov ernment, the real r resources and designs of the government to sippress the same, the intentions of the provisional government concerning the fu ture of Cuba, and the steps on foot to Inaugurate and eonerumnatethe abolition of slavery therein and in all' the 'other 13panish dependencies. It is insisted that the disclosures 'of this envoy will materially change the face or affairs: from that which they now appear to wear, and will con strain this government and this people to a new understanding of the Cuban question. —Horses sell for two cents apiece in New south Wales. . —Chicago, has a ghost that lies down in front of railroad trains , and insists upon being run over. —Beverly Tucker has leased a hotel in Canada, ind is about to try his powers as a landlord. —lt is proposed to try female suffrage in Utah nod test its,effect on polygamy. —A 8011 of tho celebrated Davy Crockett died ',lst week in Kentticky.

Nnw YORK, March 15.—The Commercial Adver tiser says the report is circulated that Mr Sumner is to make a speech to-day, strongly sustaining the position of Gsa. Grant upon the Alabama claims question; but it is without effect on the premium on gold. The decline In currency balan ces is largely attributable to the circumstance that from Mr. lisCulloch's resignation and the occupancy of the aloe by Mr. Bontwell, the usual transfers from the minor Sub-Treasusiee and depositories to the New York office have been suspended. We pre sume, therefore,that the resumption of the trans fers from other points will, in a few days, bring up the currency balance here to about the usual amount. The new Secretary is known -to be opposed to the sale of surplus gold of the Trearary, and next month about (125,000,- 000 of income tar becomes payable. It would seem that were the currency balance lower evgn than it really is, he would choose to bridge over until that period, and more so, as in the present condition of the New York banks the withdrawal of the currency into the Sub-Treasury would add disastrously to the activity that usually occurs about the beginning of April.

The artists have never appeared in this cottntry; but they are said to be first-rate, and to have' some very amusing extravaganzas in their repbricire. One of the best of these is Bernard's frion; or the Man at. the Wheel. This berlesqtte was pro duced in New York and enjoyed great popular ity; but it, is claimed for the Rogers company that they do it better than any of their rivals. The London News, speaking of the performance, says: "To expend a sentence on the subject of tho popularity attained by this burlesque would bo sheer extravagance. The piece is undoubtedly brilliant, and is, perhaps, still the best work of the author and the most popular burlesque ever written. One of the causes of the exceptionat success of Ixion, was the acting: of Mr. Felix Rogers, and another was the acting of pretty Miss Jenny Wlllmore. The hit made by Miss Willmore in Ixion was decided. Her piquant style, the excellentpoint with whichohe enunci ated Mr. Bernard's jokes, and her graceful and clever dancing took the critical first night's-audi ence by storm; and the position thus gained at & single bound has been maintained since before all undiencee." —The doublejointed,dexible Jays will hirable . . juggle, kick, climb, balance and set natural lowa. generally at deflanee, at the Theatre Coirdqua , this evening.
