Tragic Affair at Neversink.— Tho New York
Herald of yesterday contains the particulars of a
murder committed at Neversink, N- J., early on
Saturday. A little after 5, A. M.j a young man
named Alfred F.‘Moses, a temporary bar-keeper
at the Sea View House, was heard crying murder
as he was running in kia. night olothes from tho
hall of the third floor of the mriin bpilding, and
on the approach of those attracted by the cry',’ ho
retreated to his room and his bed, some twenty
feet from tho stairway. He was found in his bod
with bis throat out and bleeding profusely. The
matting on the passage floor was literally covered
with blood to the stairway. Upon inquiry, the
dying; man said that James P. Donnelly, the book
keeper of the house, had killed him; that during
the night thoy had been gambling; that deceased
had won some fifty-five dollars of’Donnelly, and
that the assassination was the result of a desperate
molution’on the partof Donnelly to recover the
monoy. One of the New York Coronors (Connery)
was called in and held an inquisition, assisted by
Alderman Wilson, of New York, and a volunteer
jury of six.
Albert E. Moses, (the dying man,) being duly
says—ls —I beliovo I dun about to appear be
fore my God, and I know that if I die with n lie
staining iny immortal soul that it will bo awful; I
therefore charge James P. Donnelly with outting
my’throat; .1 won, motley* from him,'and this sad
result followed.
James P. Donnelly, being examined by a Juror,
says-f-I live in Washington oity ; I have been in
this house about three weeks and two days; I came
hore on tho sixth day of July; I never saw Albert
S.-Mqses until Wednesday; wo were playing enrds
.last evening; we had*no quarrel; wo parted about
or between eleven and twelve o’clock; I was called
on this morning 'between'five and six o’clock; I
saw Moses" at tho head..of the stairs; wo had no
words; ho, was; bleeding; I ran down stairs; I
won no money of Moses last night; 1 have won no
money from him since he came to the house; I
think I told Mr. Truesilale thut deceased was
bleeding; I think I-also told Mr. Miller I had a
dirk knife a few days ago; I don’fc know whore it
is now.”
Other witnesses were examined. Moses died
while tho inquiry .was proceeding,.and the follow
ing- verdict was returned:—“Wp find, from tho
testimony given to üb, both by the dying man, who
was : n his perfect senses, and, other witnesses, that
Albert S. Moses received itiO’ wound in his throat,
from which he now lies dead, at the' hands of Jus.
P.^ Donnelly, on Saturday morning, August 1,
Mr; Connory of New York, had no jurisdiction in
No* Jersey, but bis- inquest ” has
elicited tho fact, that on Friday evening, Moses had
won a considerable amonhtfrom Donnelly in gamb
ling, and had his throat cut, and’ tho monoy taken
away the faoxt morning at day-break.
Tho Herald says, that-Moses, when asked by ono
of the porsons attracted to his room by his cries
aud. groanß, of tho oireuuiefcanoes 'of this bloody
affair, ho replied, that the first intimation ho had
of the presonoo of his murderer, was the fatal
blow 'at nis throat, which startled him in pain and
terror from bis sleep'; that be instantly sprang up
in his bed and, said, (for, it was daylight,) that
Donnelly was tho man.—-that Donnelly fled—that
his victim pursued him down tho passage, crying
murder; that-the fifty or fifty-five dollars whioh
deceased, during the night had won of somobody
at oards, was not tho money of Donnelly; but the
money of tho house, or of a guest or guests of
the house, of which, as'bookkeeper, bo was the
custodian; that Donnelly was searching for his
money about- tho bed when Moses mudo a stir;
when, from' the desperate excitement of the mo
ment, Donnelly stabbed him in tbo ncok; that
thereupon, frightened with ,tho instant conviction
of bis terrible crime, ho instantly fled to make
such efforts,to cover it up as tho exigenoy of tho
ease would allow.
Perhaps hod Moses deposited his money between
the bods he ocoupiod, his life would not have paid
the.forfeit, but he had taken tho precaution to put
themoneybctwcon tho mattresses of abed in an
adjoining room, not occupied by any ono, but hav
ing a communicating door with nis own room. Un
able to find tho money, tho presumption Is, that
Donnelly’s mind was wrought up to a-state of
frenzy, and benco the murder. Tne 1 deceased, us
1)0 Jay upon his' bed, the l&st of big blood slowly
poring from the wound, in his throat, told a friend
presepf'lvherp tofifidtho money—it was according
ly produced, and- found to. consist of threo parcels
in ft handkerchief—one parcel thirty-five dollars in
gold, and fn'bank bills; another parcel
•of about twelVo dollars in small ohango, (bar money,)
and tho thlrd parcol aToli of smaHlmls, the whole
amounting to nearly nirtety-two dollars. The de
ceased requested, tho,-sixty-one ono dollars of the
first parcel to be sent, to ft lady in 151’ Locust street,
.Philadelphia, and said * that tho othor monoy was
not, bis own, meaning, perhaps, that it was the
money of _ tho bar. <
” --The coolness and self'po3scaion of thp dying man
in his last agonies were very He per
sisted to the lastthat Donnelly had killedhim; and
when tho latter stepped forward to assist tho-Doc*
tor in something about the wounded man’s throat,
deceased said, ‘ ‘ Keep that man away; don’t let him
come near me.”- 1 • , • •
- When exhausted from the immense outpouring of
blood from his throat in the ball, complained of tho
pain find cold in his Jogs as far greater than the pain .
of his ten ible wound, and, called fpr something to
wftrm his chilled extremities. He also callod for
water, but it passed outof the gash ih his throat, the
the trachea opened by that single dekpernto and
ugly stab. v ‘- ■ i 1
Upon the strength of the testimony before the
Coroner, an examination was made of tbo water
closets of the back yard, and ft lot of bunk bills, torn
f to pieces, wero fished, up from the sink. Thismoney
; consisted of one one hundred! dollar bill and a*
number of small bills, the whole amounting, weuh-
Aerstand, to about one hundred and sixty dollars.
The key of the sqfe could not be found; Donnelly
could give no acoouUt of. it; land the dirk knife of
-which be tfus known to be possessed, and with whioh
it is believed ho committed tho murder, was proba-.
bly thrown into the river.
! Donnelly appears to bo some twenty-five or
twenty-eight years of age—is a small man—very
pale, very excitable and impulsive.
Yet be bore himself voty woll under trying cir
cumstances ,of his situation. Ho was neither sto
lidly indifferent, nor abject or weakly confused, but
ceeined .to -feol *at: onc& ft becoming regret for the
catastrophe, and tho necessity of keeping awake all’
his faculties in his own defence. Moses appears to
have been of nearly the eame ago/ and ! has/wo un
. derstand, led a rambling and irregular life, though
; ndt regarded as a'bolligercnt or quarrelsome char
'actor. • i , : ‘

TO THE PUBLIC. —I WOULD CALL
the attention of the public to the following RV.CIVK,
which I have tried in a number of cases of SCART.ET
FEVER, TYPHUS FEVER, ami in ouo ca«o of tho
most malignant SMALIi-POX. I have not known a
death to occur where it was used. The following is the
plan that I have always adopted: Put ono peck of
charcoal in a furnace and burn tho gas off in tho open
air; then I have always taken it to the sick room and
sprinkled over it gradually about five pounds of common
brown sugar, then sprinkle over it one gallon of cider
vinegar. It should bo tried every other day to make it
effectual. Of course medical advice is required besides.

SALLY AND JACK.—A TALE OF
LOVE AND MARRIAGE. (By JACK himseU.)
When first I saw my Sally dear,
Her voice lu song was soaring;
I wi»v her at her father’# door,
And could not help adoring.
I saw her next within the house.
And still felt interested.
She was ior Bennett making vests,
I then iny lore i«*vejf-erf.
I thought it weak, and, for a week,
Against the sex I ranted ;
But, when I saw- her making pant-.,
Again for her I panted,
I felt the passion was sincere,
And thought my love I’d proficr ;
I called; they told me she was off—
I could not make an ojfrr.
I saw her in the country next,
The summer sun was shining;
She sat beneath a shady pine,
While I for her was pining.
I saw her with a milking-pail,
When to the baru*yurd going ;
And.when I saw tho milk’s pure flow,
My heart wan ov>*r-llow*ing
I saw her through the garden-gate—
The fairy form retreating—
I saw her pull a blood-red beet.
Oh, how my heart was bent- lug'
I saw her ’neath the cottage roof,
And when I was permitted
To see some stockings she had knit,
f 2^ly.heart to her*s was jtntf-ted.
I gated into her deep blue eyea,
With pure attention shining.
Sho seemed to me almost divine,
While thus her thoughts //inning
I told her all my tale «>F love—
How sadly I’d lamented;
And giving thus my feelings \eut,
A broken heart pre-tv/il-ed
Bhc jyiys, “ Dear Dick, when I am thine,
. No whim must bo restricted,
You must not be u contrary Dick,
Nor I bo contradicted ”
I yielded with becoming grace.
On every point we mooted;
“ Go get your wedding suit—
in .that, let me be Muted.”
I asked. Where shall T get my clothes 1 ”’
I saw her brmv was low erlng—
Sho pointed up to Bennett'a Tower,
That to tho clouds was loierr-ing
Says «he, “That is the onl) place
To get your wedding raiment;
And if my hand you e’er would claim,
Dress there, K>r he no chiim-aut. ’
, laaw, was firmly fixed,
- * Aud. I must act right warv.
Shejdflnd “Excuse” her Pjck tqshitn,
*' Without a ‘dictionary.
i I felt that I should hang mvself,
1 If .rife, in love, should falter;
1 thcrqtoro went to Dennett's Hall,
And'kaiod mystll ahnlt'i.
I bought my clothes, nnd wore them home,
And {hen our vows we pllghiod ;
Hereyes they danced with luve’.sown light,
My Bally was de-JigAf-od
We married, and this song I sing—
A well-deserved ovation—
To Bennett’fl elothen, that won tnv S.il,
And proved mj own NuM-iilion
Ye lovers then, that night hi uiglit,
On maidens fair are railing,
If urit attired at Tower Hall,
You’ll get an over-Aaul-mg.
Heed this, my pong. am! to your friends.
Of Bennett’s clothing tell.
I urge it for your own welfare,
And bid you all farewell.

Choice farm lands for sale
mi ILLINOI3CEXTRAL RAILROAD COMPAXY
is now prepared to sell 1.500.000 acres of choice
Farming lands, in tracts of 40 acres and upwards, on
long credit*. and at low rates of interest.
Xhe*e lands were granted by the Government to aid
in the construction of tbis Road, and are among the
richest and most fertile in the world They extend
from North-East and North-West. through the middle
of the State, to the extreme South, and include every
variety of climate and productions found between those
parallels of latitude. The Northern portion is. chiefly
prairie, interspersed with fine groves, and in the middla
and Southern sections timber predominates, alternating
with beautiful prairies and openings.
The climate is more healthy, mud and equable, than,
any other part of the country—the air is pure and bra
cing, while living streams and springs of excellent
water abound.
Bitumiuous Coal is extensively mined, and supple* a
cheap and desirable fuel, being furnished at many
jiointiatjd to $4 per ton—and wood can be bad at the
same rate per cord.
lluilduig Stone of excellent quality al«o abounds,
which can be procured lor little more than the expense
of transportation.
The great fertility of these lands, which areabUdf
rich mould, from two to five feet deep, and gently roll
ing-, their contiguity to this road, by which every* foci
iity is furnished for travel and transportation to th*
principal markets North. South. East. West, and the
economy with which they can be cultivated, render
them the most valuable lme?tinent that can be found,
v.nd present the most favor^M* l opportunity for parsons
of industrious habits and small to acquire a com
fortable independence in a few years.
Chicago is now the greatest grain market in the world;
and the facility and economy with which the products
of these lands cau be transported to that market, make
them much more profitable. at the prices asked, tbau
tlioM* more remote at government rate*, as the addi
tional cost of transportation is a perpetual tax on the
latter, which inu-t b * borne by the producer, in th* re
duced price he receive* for h'« grain. &c.
The title i* perfect—and when the final payment* are
made, deeds are executed bv the trustees appointed by
the State, and in 'whom the title i* vested, to the pur
chokers, which convey to them absolute titles in fee sim
ple, fiee and clear ofei.ery incumbrance, lien or mort
gage.
The price* are from ?d to s2o* interest only 3 per ct.
Twenty per ct. will be deducted from thepriee for cash.
Tho-os who purchase on loug credit, give notes pavabla
in two. three, tour, five and -nyears afurdate, and are
required to improve oue-tenth annually for five years,
so .is to Ime orw-hnlfthe land under cultivation at the
end of that time.
Competent surveyors will accompany those who wish
to examine these Lands, free of charge, and aid them in
making selections.
The Land.* remaining unsold are as rich and valuable
a 3 those which have been disposed of.
