THE LAST' PHILADELPHIA HOE.
BOR.
• The telegraph T6esday night gave us a
brief account of the horrible butchery of
a tribther and her two children, by the
husband and father, and the subsequent
suicide by drowning of the latter, at Phil
iulelphia. By mail we have the following
particulars :
• The name of the murderer and suicide
was James L. Blackstone, of the Ann of
Fanston & Blackstone, picture-frame
manufacturers, on Market street above
Ninth. The family resided in the north
western part of the city, The first. inti
mation of the murder was the receipt qf a
dispatch Tuesday morning by Mr. Fon
ston - from a relative of Blackstone, to
whom the murderer communicated the
crime by mail, immediately after its per
petration. - The house was immediately
visited by Mr. Funston, who, with the aid
of police, forced an entrance, and discov
ered on the kitchen floor the three bodies
horribly mutilated and covered with
blood. The floor - and every article of
ftrnittire in the room was completely sat
urated. •So great was the quantity on the
floor that the fiend had placed, a roll of
ranslin at the door to prevent the blood
from running into the yard. The scene
presented Was one of the most horrible
type, and only equaled by the unparal
lelelbutchery of the . Deering family, by
Probst, a few years ago.
An _examination of the body of Mrs.
Blackstone disclosed the fact that the
wounds were made by an axe. On the
face was a frightful gash, severing the
root of the tongue and jaw bone. The
throat was cut through to the spinal col
umn. On other parts of the head were a
number of contused, wounds evidently
Made by the blunt part of the axe. The
body of the lade girl was next examined.
-The head was crushed to a jelly, the
brens protruding at different places. The
child had apparently received two or
three blows of the blunt part of the in
strument. The head of the boy was also
crushed in. and bore the marks of several
blows of the sharp part of the axe. The
head was nearly severed by a gash on the
neck: The other portions of the bodies
bore no marks of violence. -It is sup
posed the family had just arisen, as the
children were in their night clothes. The
tragedy took place about six o'clocl4on
Sunday morning, as the neighbors heard
talking in the kitchen about, that time.
Blackstone was a temperate man, and
with his family attended church nearly
every Sunday.
1 After the deed he visited a real estate
broker and made an arrangement ' f some
property and then walked towards the
river, but before reaching it he was arres
ted by.a Justice, who, from his singular
actions, supposed him to be Jame. 11e,
however, broke away. and, on reaching
the Chestnut street whar4 pulled off his
coat'and hat, and throwing them away,
immediately pituaged into the river. A
handkerchief on which was his name was
liquid in his pocket. This fact, together
with the writing.of the letter to his'fath
er-in-law, informing him of the murder,
to - refute the theory of his being in
sane.
4,i;
. ::1
Blackstone was thirty-seven years of
age and his wife thirty-four. They had
been married twelve years, during which
time they have ' as far as is known, lived
happily. The boy was eight and the girl
three years of age. Depression of spirits,
caused by disappointment in money mat
ters, was the probable cause of the terri
ble deed. Mrs. Blackstone has been
heard to state that her, husband inherited
insanity.`
Washington Items.
It is reported that Mr.. Delano, Com
missioner of Internal Revenue, and Mr.
Boutwt R, Secretary of the Treasury, will,
with the approbation of the President,
shortly remove a majority of the revenue
officials in Pennsylvania from collectors
to gaugers.
Several Congressmen, who have con.
versed with Genera: Grant on the sub
ject, deny that he is opposed to every
proposition bat absolute repeal, as has
been published. The President says
-that he, in common with everybody else
outside of Congress, is tired of the never-_
ending discussion, and Ls willing to ac
cept the Senate bill, or any other that is
reasonable, if they will only stop talking.
There were in favor of. the Senate
office•tenure bill. on Friday, seventy Re
publicans. A change of from twelve to
fifteen votes will secure a concurrence,
and eqd the controversy, which is be
condrut a serious annoyance' to the mem
,bers of both Rouses, all or whom are
anxious to secure the removal of various
office holders, which =loot be done
while this bill remains in force, and near
ly all are anxious for an adjournment,
that they may return td their homes.
This bill is the main thing now which
prevents a day being fixed for adjourn
ment.
•
The following appointments of. Post=
masters have been made in Pennsylvania:
Condersport, Potter • county, M. S.
- Thompson. vice B. O. Reese, resigned;
t;andor, Washington county,- Wm. Brig.
ham, vice B. Kelso, resigned. s•
Under the amendments of the House
of the Judiciary bill, Justices Grier and
Nelson will probably go upon the retired -
list. This bill makes three vacancies, one
of which will, no doubt, betllled by Chief
Justice Carter, of the District*Court. •
A dispatch froth Macon states that Al
exander EC Stephens,- formerly vice pres
ident•of the rebel government,
l is on his -
death bed.
" Secretary Irish advises . the President to
be slow and cautions with respect to Cu
ban affairs, Andtiler() is .every reason for
believing MIS advice will be followed.

more of said Commissioners to service in
any one of such districts respectively; and

Mr. Sprague, of Rhode Island, predicts
our financial rain with our present in
debtedness' and Old Frank Blair declares
Sprague is the only man in Congress who
comprehends the situation and dares to
titter it. •
The appointments for the leading for
eign missions do not yet appear to have
been settled. Mr. Andrew J. Curtin is
patiently waiting the announcement of
his nomination to St. Petersburg, in
Philadelphia, but some - way it halts.
Some of his friends, some time ago, asked
to have it changed to one of minor im
portance, but which was altogether more
pleasant, and they were told that Mr.
Curtin need not gtve himself any uneasi
ness on the subject. Ex. Governor
Thomas, of Maryland, is - urged for the
mission to Japan.
It has transpired that John Jay or Mr.
Motley will be appointed to the English
Mission, with the probabilities in favor
of Mr. Jay. In that case Mr. Motley
will return to Austria.
The indications are that the first Confer
ence Committee on the Tenure-of:Office
act will not agree, but that a second Com
mittee, with Butler off, will adopt a bill
which both Houses will pass and the
President will sign.
The deficiency bill will contain an ap
propriation of two millions for Internal
Revenue expenses.
