By • this t he • yearly burden of the tax-payers of the State has be& inCrea.sed 853,200 00. The Legislature of last winter, did not change the rate of $7OO 00 pay, but contins tied it.

Our people are already familiar with the falsehood and 'deception, practised in the State by our opponents The most eoriupt fusions have been; formed and imposed upon the people:as "siinon pure," "Relmblicatt," "Ametican," !ctother tickets, 'as was best suited to the locality. Again_this fall is a ticket put forth to the Voters. of . the State, which, in this region, is claimed to represent the,Fremont party of 1656. We need not stop to inquire whether this be so, or not ; it. is quite enough to -remember that no such position was taken at the convention, and that a milk and water—or mud and water plat(orm•was made, which is explained to suit different localities. In the Southeastern part of the State, the ticket is supported upon an entirely diffiirent platform from the !one claimed in ills region. The Philadelphia Daily News, a , Fillmore paper in '56, now an advocate of the opposition State ticket, and a recognized organ of our opponents, says : "It appeared plain to us' that the Repub lican movement hf 'sG•and of '57 was wronj, ni".l rruuL -aes? gu eu, to ruin the prospect of establishing - ari Ainericau We therefom had no choice 'but to contend against the Republican party as well as - a gainst the Loco Foco party, and events have drown that we were right. The Republicans hare acknowledged their error, and, so fur as Pennsylvania is concerned, have abandoned their organization. Were. we disposed to exult. we; should have abundant cause to do so; but we knew that most of those who had joined the Republican union movement were not the enemies of American measures, but simply mistaken friends: It. is enough for us to know now that they hate abandoned their error," How many of our opponents in this county , will admit that they have "acknowledged their error and % abandoned their organization r i Vet such declarations are puk forth in other parts of the State with theif silent sanction. We do not - believe the mass of the "Repub - limn" party here authorize this hypocracy, 'but the leaders, who manage affairs know from litter experience that. without this their party is doomed to perpetual and hopeless defeat.

The crime was perpetrated .at night. The wounded child remained motionless•till.day light, when .she crawled to a neighborir e fartnhOul,Q.. When the authorities arrived at the seat of crime, they found the three eldest girls dead, and two desperately wound• ed. The cause of-this bloody , act is is dd to have been jealousy, arising from some display of coquetry at a ball the preceding Sunday, where the prettiest of the girls, the one 21 years of age, refused to dance with one of the assassins, or to return him a ring or some ,other love .token, lie had then looked for an accomplice, and found one in a neighbor. The accomplice, it appears from the deposi., tion of the child, would have spared the younger ones, 1.4 t the other, alleging the danger of discovery, insisted upon their.cem pletiog their butchers work. The authori ties are making the most active exertions to discover the lurking places of the culfirita, whose persons are well known to the workmen of the numerous mills. . • Communicated • The Coolies in HAVANA, Sept. 9, /858. The institution of abolition philanthropy is flourishing in our island with results which must be very gratifying to the benevo lent souls who have advocated Indian and Asiatic coolie emignition, under contracts for Cuban servitude—eight years, renewable at the pleasure of the contracting parties, if the subject 'lives. On the 29th ultimo ar rived the Dutch ship Van Heinskisk,Korning master, 140 days from Swatow, with 489 coolie; having lost during the voyage one hundred and twenty-seven from disease. and casualities; on the 31st ultimo, by the Dutch ship Cornelius • 'Loon Hoof, Keens. mast er , 15:2 days' voyage; same port, received-alive 368 coolie), two hunched and ten having perished during the passage. The deaths horn the cargo •of this vessel, since, arrived, by disease' contracted on shipboard, have varied from ten to eighteen per day op to yesterday, so that there will be 'but a rem nant left for toil. - The coolies are put in an old hulk, which is kept -in the quarantine anchorage as an laespital, and have as good , medical treatment and camas can be pro cured, but - they perished—uncounted but for fees—and sleepla the bottom of the bay near the halk,—not unmolested, for it-has be come the favorite•feeding ground of shoals of sbarlat,•which, in consequence, now infect the upper arm of the bay, and must of neces sity, more or less, infect the ,air, from the putrid remains which are scattered every where by these voracious, monsters preying opon the bodies of.‘the - relieved .Asiatics.
