The repotted foundering of an ltalian man-of-war
at sea ba* created a wide-spread sensation among
out citizens. Meetings have been held at the office
of the Italian Consul General, and expedient ar
rangements made for verifying the rumor, or proving
its falsity. I-ast evening, the steamship North Star
sailed hence upon such an errand, and other steam
ers wUI, it is believed, follow, as soon as the appro

been suitably Uonized, in common with the Ruasifhs;
and It has been no fault of theirs, if some have
not captured bands and fortunes from among the

none are known to have aueceeded, their repulaea

A suit of some general interest is now upon the
aalendar of the Common Pleas. Elizabeth Burton,
wife-of the late William E. Burton,- comedian,
claims her right of dower in certain properly, of
which her husband died seized; and, for its estab
lishment, brings this action. She aUeges her mar
riage with the testator, at the church of the parish
of St. Martin’s-lmthe Fields, county of Middlesex,
England, on the 10th day of April, 1823. The de
fendants (executors) deny this marriage, and dispute
her claim on the plea of her alienage. One allega
tion of the complaint reads: “ That she then was,
and ever sinae hath been, and is, a free white
woman This explicit declaration of color and
natural right is rendered necessary, it seems, from
the wording of the statute under which ihe claims;
a statute which, the judge holds, was “ designed for
the benefit of an alien white woman." It is pain

Dreadful Murder at Broad Top.
of The Press.)
Dudley, Huntingdon oounty, Fa.,
Mareb, 18, last.
On Thursday a dreadful murder wa, oommitted at
the Broad Top Coal region, in the oountv o( Hunt
ingdon. It appeara that a miner named Peter Ken
ney, aged 60, a native of Newtown Forbe,, Long
ford, Ireland, wai celebrating St. Patrleh’a Day in
the uaual mode with atrong pOiauunS of whisky.
About 4 o’eloek in the afternoon hie wife called at
the atom where he wan paying a amall account and
took home with her a bottle or whlaky. After thla
both partiea were eeen at their houae, the huaband
in drink, but the wile, at that time, apparently,ober.
About 8 o’eloek in the evening Mr,. Barber, a neigh
bor, heard screams in the dlreetlonol the houae,
but a, auoh row, were not unuaual ahe took little
notice of the eircumatanee.
Between two and three o’clock the following,
morning Kenney called at tbe houae of Mr,. Mac-
Ginnl,, who realde, about thirty yard, off, and told
her that he “thought hi, old woman was dead.”
Mr,. MacGinni* Immediately dressed and proceeded
to the house, where ahe discovered the lifeless re
main, of Mrs. Kenney, stretched on the floor oppo
site the fire, covered with blood, and Kenney stand,
lng over her. She aaked him how It was done, and
he replied that he “ got out of bed and found hi,
wife outside the house, at the gable end, lying on
the floor, quite dead, and that he took her In door,
to the Are, but he could not cay how it was done, or
by whom; that he wa, lu bed, and heard no noiae,”
He wac sober at this time.
Mr,. Mac Ginni, gave the alarm, and between 8
and 9 o'clock that morning Dr. W. B. Robert, wa,
called in, He found that the deceased wa, dread
fully lacerated about the upper' part of the body, a
wound a, if done by a heavy blunt inatrument, out
tbe aealp two inehes.long to the ahull. The right arm
wasbioken three lcchec above the wrict, as If she
lifted her arm In cell-defence and reoelved tbe full
power on It, of the murderouc bludgeon which wa,
evidently uied. The left arm wa, alio contused, and
severed contused mark, were apparent on the throat,
Inflicted with the objeot of strangulation, Tbe akin
of both lega below the knee wa, peeled off, and
pieces of ooal cindere adhered to the lace
ration!, a, if the had been dragged along the
ground. Blood also flowed from her right ear,
and all the appearance, indicated that a fear
ful atruggle for life had taken place. An im
mense beavv hickory stick, about four reet long,
covered with blood, wa, found in the bouse. It is
doubtleiß the instrument by which the fearful crime
wac perpetrated. It remains in the possession of
Dr. Roberta. The constable of Dudley apprehended
Kenney, and a hurried Inquest wa, held tbe Bame
morning. The above fact, being submitted to the
jury, they brought in the following verdict: " That
toe deceased died from Injuries inflicted on her by
come.person unknown.” The prisoner was shortly
.afterwards, taken before Mr. James White, justice
:oftbo peace, and oommitted to Huntingdon jail.
The deceased, Ann Kenney, had flve children by a
-former husband, a 100 emotive engineer employed at
Johnstown, but toe; bave been raised by their fa
ther’s relatives, and for some time have had little or
no oonneotion with their mother. The deoeaied,
before marriage, had an illegitimate ohild by Ken
ney, a little girl, now two years of age. This ohild
slept in toe house that night, but of oourse is too
young to give any account of the fearful strife which
took place.
The prisoner was generally considered a hard.
Working, industrious man, but occasionally indulged
In strong drinks, and upon such occasions ill-treated
his wife. In a drunken row some time since he
broke the back of her hand with a blow of a stick.
The deceased herself was also unfortunately addicted
to drink, and on toe night of toe murder both are
supposed to have drank the contents of the bottle ef
whisky which ihe had purobssed In the evening, a,
it wa, found empty the next morning.
The miserable one-room shanty.in which toe par
ties resided is contiguous to the Switch Back Rail,
road, near a little Irish village, three quarters of a
mile from Broad Tep Olty.
The deceased was SB years of age, a native of (Ja
van, Ireland, her maiden name being Ann McOul
lagh. The impression in toe neighborhood is that
they beoame excited after drinking toe bottle of
whisky, quarreled, that he struck her with the hick
ory bludgeon, and, whilst in an Insensible state,
dragged her outside toe house, where she died from
toe combined effects of ill-treatment and cold; that
he subsequently obliterated all marks which might
connect him with tbe murder, and, when sober, In
formed Mr, MacGlnnls of the affair.
It has created quite a sensation ill the neighbor
hood, and toe scene of carnage has been visited by
hundreds of people Rom the surrounding country.
Clever Swordsmen.— At a recent military en
tertainment given at London in aid of the Soldiers’
Daughters’ Home, Corporal Major St. John cleanly
and cleverly severed a suspended sheep at a single
blow, and easily minced with a single flourish of his
weapon handkerchiefs and ribbons successively
wound round it. Corporal Major Waite, with equal
precision, cut through a suspended bar of lead, a
feat which, aa well as tbe severing of a sheep, is
familiar. A lea, familiar and more sensational feat
was added. HI, sword raised over an apple lying in
a eomrade’s outstretched hand, he cleanly severed
toe apple by a downward blow, which, with the
slightest additional impetus, would sever the hand
that held it. 'William Toll’s traditional shot was
not more hazardous. A boy’s head and a comrade’s
hand, It is true, are not equally valuable; but both are
infinitely better worth keeping to their respective
owners than latoesensatlon of rlskiogeither. Corpo
ral Major Waite must have bold men in hi, troop to
practice upon. '

Alleged Plot to Assassinate or Kidnap Pre ’
A Washington correspondent of the Tribune, who
for some time past his been furnishing the public
with startling revelations of the Confederacy, gives
a plausible statement of a plot proposed in the early
part of laat November:
One hundred and fifty picked men were to go iff*
cretly North, and take quarters in Washington,
Georgetown, Baltimore, and Alexandria, so as to be
able to communloate dally with each other; and
upon a day fixed by their leader, were to assemble
in Washington, for the purpoie of making the sei
zure, The President, it was claimed, could be easily
seized at a quiet hour, at the White House, or in
going to or returning from ehuroh, or on some other
favorable occasion, and thrust into a carriage and
driven off. The carriage waa to be joined, slew
miles out of the city, by twenty.five or thirty armed
men, on horsebaok. _ _ .
It wfti proposed to drive to Indian Point* about
twenty- five miles south of Washington, on the Poto
mac—two or three relays of fleet hone being sta
tioned on tbe way—where a boat was to be in wait
ing to cross the river and land the eaptlve a few
milea south of Oeooqusn, when it would be an
easy matter for his captors to work their way
with him through; the woods by night Into
the rebel lines. To prevent pursuit, every,
bridge between Washington and Indian Point was
to be mined. beforehand, and blown up as soon
aa the captive and his eaptors had crossed. Huge
trees were also to be ready cut and thrown across
the road In various places as soon as they had passed,
by men stationed along for the purpose, who were
afterward to separate and esoape as best they could.
The Secretary of War thought this scheme might
succeed ; but he doubted whether such a proceeding
would be of a military character and justifiablhUDder
tbe laws of war. He promised, however, toconsuit
the President and Mr. Benjamin; but what con
clusion was arrived at I am unable with certainty
to say. About a week, however, after the plan was
submitted, and the same dav that Colonel Margrave
left for the Norths I <*SkedMr. Well ford, who la
familiar wlth-all the secrets of the Department, If
the plan had-beea,adapted,*an4 he answered, “You
will see Old Abe herein the spring as sure as God.”
A few days afterward I was sent to Atlanta, and
never returned-, to-Richmond to hear about the
matter.
But this is not,the only soheme by any.means that
has been deviled for kidnapping our President. East
summer a dab or society ef wealthy citizens of
Richmond waa formed for the purpoie of raising a
fund for this object. Circulars were sent to trust
worthy citizens in every other city and town in the
Confederacy, Inviting co-operation In the grand un
dertaking, and ah. immense sum of money was sub
scribed. Tbe firm oi Maury A Co., bankers, in Rich
mond, subscribed ..$lO,OOO, and Sumner A Arents,
auctioneers, subscribed $6.000; and I have heard on
good authority that there were aeveral in the capi
tal who subscribed even more liberally than the
parties named, but who they were I did not. learn.
One man of Charleston, S. C, whosß name I have for
gotten, subscribed $20,000. It was proposed, when all
waa ready, to obtain a furlough for Mosby, and
make him leader of the enterprise.
NXGBOBB IN THE EfouTHHBN ABMY— OBN, BBAGG’S
When an engagement is about totake place, suoh
of these negroes as are willing to fight are equipped,
and go into battle With their masters. In March
last I was sent aa courier by the Secretary of War
to Gen. J. E. B. Stuart, and was with Ms command
In Col. Owen’s (the 3d Virginia) regiment, belonging
to Fltzbugb Lee’s brigade, at the Battle of Kelly’s
Ford. This regiment is a very aristocratic one,
“being composed of young men, nearly every one -of
whom claims to be of an F. F. V., and there are fully
a quarter aa many negro aervants In the command
as soldiers. At the battle referred to these negroes
fought magnificently by the side oi their masters,
and several of them were killed. The servant of
McClellan, adjutant of the regiment, displayed a
courage and desperation that challenged the ad mi--
ration of all who saw him, and the day after the
flgbt he received from Col. Owen the present of a
handsome sword for hi* bravery.
This Adjutant McClellan, by the by, is a first
coußin of Gen. George B. McOleUsn, the Union
hero of the seven days’ battles around Richmond.
He is a facsimile of the General, at least in appear
ance, and for his devotion to the rebel oause was
recently promoted to major on Gen. Stuart’a staff'.
But to return for a moment to tbe negro soldiers:
Gen. Brsgg, in a communication to Mr. Seddon,
stated that at the battle at Stone’s river four com
panies of negroes, which had been formed, out of
servants attached to the army, and officered by
white men, conducted themselves with great credit,
exhibiting a fearless determination not exceUed by
tbe best soldiers of his command. He recommended
tbe immediate organization of 200,000 soldiers of
this elaaa. to be distributed in companies and regi
ment! of tbe armies then in tbe field.

STUYVESANT.
From the Lancaster Express we take the fol

Martin, a private soldier of too gallant 79th “Penn
sylvania,” in reply to a patriotic weloomo speech
from Mayor George Sanderson, editor of that Oop.
perhead newspaper, toe Lancaster Intelligencer. It
Is very doubtful whether the class represented by
Mr, Sanderson would endorse these manly remarks
of Private Martin:
“We have oome home as veteran volunteers.

lx quest to found a college would have been void,

that the matter had been laid before the Attorney
General Of the State, who was of opinion that the

that the-Fresident and Viee President declined the

POLITICAL.
—An Initial Fremont meeting was held in the
Cooper Institute on Friday evening. Mr. Hoisod
Greeley, on being Introduced by the president, said
that he was happy to be present on an occscidh of
so much Interest to the friends of the nsilfs, JJp
was one of the most important questions now before
the people, Who la to be the next Chief Magistrate!
The movement of the friends of Fremont was not a
factious movement. It was not Intended to divide
the new nation to arise upon the ruins of new com
promises and falsehoods too long submitted to. It
was a proper movement; but he did not believe that
It was In the right of General Fremont to press his
claims by means of dlcsemions. He considered It a
wrong principle in any man to seek for a second
nomination or election, and he had said this on
more occasions than one. The people had the right
to be the free advocate or their own ohoioe. For
.bis own part, he thought that the friends of Fre
mont were moving too early. It would be far better
to postpone all nominations until about the Ist o r
September, when united aotion would properly be
made. It was toe duty of Union men to look to
these things, ror the btaeflt of toe country and its
best Interests.
The platform set forth by toe meeting Is as fol
lows:
A vigorous, consistent, oonoentrated prosecution
of the war against the Insurgent armlet in the field,
with adequate penalties fer treesen, end no amnesty
except to absolute submission. [Applause ]
The right of suff rage to be regulated by legislative
bodies, and not prescribed by the Executive.
No restoration of civil rights as an inducement to
rebels to forswear themselves.
So initiation of serfdom by attaching the person
of the laborer to the soil.
Absolute equality of all men before the law, with
out distinction of race or color. [Cheers.]
Extension of toe beneficent principles of the Home
stead law, and a liberal distribution ot bounty lands
among all soldiers.
Paramount nationality, as opposed to a seditious
