C.KAItV, Of Cumberland County. ggfThe Muncy Luminary says, in regard to the proposed new railroad, that "the En gineer are still engaged on tho surveys of the Susquehanna route, the final location from "Williamsport to tho Muncy Dam hav ing already been completed, and tho ground taken possession of by the Catawissa. com pany, along tho rocks near the dam, is still held, and the workmen placed there several weeks ago are still going on with their work.. Not ranch importance is attached to the statement going the rounds of the papers, from the Philadelphia ledger, in re gard to the compromise between the Atlan tic and Great Western, and the Pennsylva nia Railroad companies." We should not be surprised, however, if the company finally adopted the route from this place, through Mt. Cnrniel and Quakake Junction to Maucli Chunk, and from thence to New York, by the Lehigh Valley. "Fred. Douglass, after nn interview with President Lincoln, remarked that "Mr. Liu coin was the first white man he ever passed an Lour with, who failed to remind him, in fom way, before the interview terminated, that he was a 'negro !' " tiT" We think Fred, draws largely ou Ida imagination for some of his facts. Presi dent Lirjcolu was a generous-hearted man, but no true gentleman would be guilty of the rudeness of the above charge, and Fred, would hardly undertake to say that Mr. Lincoln was tho only man he ever met who treated him like a gcntlemnn.

Our read ers will Gud in our columns, this week, the report of tho Auditors on the receipts and expenditures of the county, always an in teresting document, but especially so at the present time. EEifTue oil fever seems to have subsided very much within the last three months, and oil, like coal, is experiencing tho inevi table result which is sure to follow expan sion and inflation of prices. Petroleum is now almost as low as it has ever been. A correspondent of one of the eastern papers, from the oil region, humorously describes in verse the effects of the oil fever, when it was at its height : WHh pen dipped in oil we Uie distant ones greet "Dear friends 1 uin well about one thousand foct; Tbcj hear of our labors. "Poor fclloir" they say, "lie's throwing the best years of his life away." ''Poor'' fellow ! How strangely such epithets sound, When one owns two-thirds of a hole in the ground ! You meet un old friend fur the first time in years ; lie prospers, you think, by the way he appears; "Is your l'niuily well!" when the first greetings o'cr ile bears the last word, but he hears nothing more "0 yes!" you're astonished to hear the mnn say, "&ho's flowing twelve hundred odd barrols a day!" You pity tbe man; his mind wanders, 'tis plain; You soon learn the cause he has nil on the braiu. tif" Paper from Wood Pulp. At t'liUadclphiu on Thursday, tho 12th inst., a large number of capitalists, journalists, and gentlemen of scientific renown were gather ed to witness the process of making paper out of wood. The compauy owning this process have established large works on the bcbuylkill near Philadelphia, nnd are ma king 20 tons of wood-pulp paper daily. The mills are owned by capitalists from all parts of the country. A poplar tree taken fiom ihe hill side was converted into clear, white, toft paper, in the space of five hours. In the evening a banquet was given by Messrs. Jessupjifc Moore, at the Continental Hotel. The pulp worts are very extensive buildings, and with the machinery, cost $500,000. The greut feature of the woiks is the economy til the use of chemicals, which disintegrate the wood and bleach the pulp, the refuse being carried to tho evaporating house, where the chemicals are rendered fit for using again only 20 per cet. of fresh stock being addeil to make it equal to its former strength.

On Thursday this man parted with him for the purpose of visiting Ken sington, .with the understanding that he would meet him at Front and Noble streets yesterday , morning, to which place no would have gone if he had not boon cap tured by the officers In question. The prisoner was very calm at the hear ing before Chief Franklin, and at times ap peared rather desirous of revealing tho par ticulars of his bloody acts. - After ths questions at this place had been closed, he was removed to a cell on the same floor, where Coroner Taylor had an Inter view with him, in the presence of a few gentlemen, who had a more especial inter est in the important matters connected with the examination. Tho accused appeared desirous, during tho examination, to hide from the view of the gentlemen present his right, band, the thumb belonging to which had been almost entirely taken off, thus confirming the Mate ments published in The Inquirer in reference to the deficient member of his bony At the close of the hearing before the Coroner, tho accused was taken to the Mayor's Office, in the upper part of the building, when a hearing took placo before las Honor. HOW THE MURDER WAS COMMITTED. j The private examination before tho Mayor ! elicited tho fact that the murder was com j mined in tho following manner: I On Friday last Ganther'e accomplice in I the terrible tragedy came over to Mr. Bear ing's, and proposed to the prisoner that I they should murder the family and rob the ! house. Uanthcr consented to the plan pro I posed by his accomplice, and it was sr I ranged that tho prisoner should murder the j boy, while the other man despatched the : rest of Mr. Dearing's family. About ten o'clock on Saturday morning tlin ncrnmnlirn miratindnri Mrs. Dearinrr to , o - I come to the barn, a short distance from the I house, and getting her there, struck her in the ! head with an axe, nnd then cut her threat with the edge of that instrument. lie then pitched her body into the corn-crib I adjoining the barn, nnd then proceed ; iug to the house, took the children one by one to the barn, when their lieaus were knocked in with tho Hutt end of the axe and their throats cut. As last as one was dealt with in this manner its body was thrown into the corn crib, nnd the process UORR1DI.E HUTCIIsHItY. A Iwnlly of Klffht lcrm Mr. tiered In Ptalladelphliu Arrest of ths Murderer. PniLADEi.niiA, April 11, 1800. A terrible crimo in the lower section of the city was discovered this afternoon. A A family of eight persons, consisting of Mr. Christopher Deenng, his wife, niece and five children, were found brutally murdered, on Mr. Deering's farm, in Jones's lane, about half a mile from tho Old Point House road, in the First Ward. Tho crime was discov ered this afternoon, by finding the bodies of Dcering and his wife in tho barn. One of the victims was a baby fourteen months old. Plunder seems to have been the object, as the house exhibited evidences of having been thoroughly ransacked. The horses and cattle in tho stable wcro found in a famishing condition. Tho names of tho persons murdered nr as follows : Mr. Christopher Deenng, nged 87 years. Mrs. Julia Decring, aged 44 years. Cornelius Dcering, aged 17 years. John Dci-rins. sued 8 years. Thomas Deering, nged 0 years. Annie Decring, aged 4 years. Emma Decring. aged 14 months. j Miss Elizabeth Keating, aged 40 years. : The bodies of Deering nnd his nieco were I discovered in a barn, covered with hay, and j the others in a corn crib, similarly covered. ; It is supposed that the murders were com mitted last Saturday, by a man and boy, who had been hired by Mr. Decring, nnd who lived with his family (or two months past. They have been missing since the murder. Deering and hi nieco were from home on Saturday morning, and it is sup posed his wife and children were murdered during his absence, nnd that he and his nicro were killed on their return. The bodies presented a horrible appearance, having been fearfully mutilated with a knife nnd axe. Only one of the family is saved, a child aged ten years, who is on a vist to a distant relative. Dcering was a cattle dealer, doing busi ness for Mr. Mitchell, the owner of the property. At times Mr. Deering had large sums of money in his possession, the pro cceds of sales of cattle, &c, and which he he'd but temporary possession t. At the time of the murder it is thought that ho hud very little money in his possession, al though the terrible deed was undoubtedly committed with the expectation of pecuniary crmn His residence is located in the suburbs, ; continued until the wholo family was dis- about a mile nnd a half below the Xsavy , poscu oi. Yard. THE roST-MOHTEM EXAMINATION. A post-mortem examination of the bodies of the deceased was held on Thursday. Miss Elizabeth Dolun was tho first acted upon. The doctor discovered blood on the right hand, and a bruised wound, one and half inches long, over the left eye. The frontul bone was fractured. There was also a wound on the left side of the head and her throat cut. Emma Deariug, aged fourteen mouths, was then removed from the ice box and placed on the table. Her forehead, ini, mediately over the left eye, was mashed in, and a deep cut inflicted on the left side of the neck. Her left arm was broken at the joint and another wound was discovered on the shoulder. The wounds of Mrs. Julia Dearing were next examined. First, the frontal bono was fractured, apparently having been struck twice with the butt end of the axo. The wound in the neck was similar to the wounds inflicted on the others, but it ap pears thut a second blow had been dealt her close up to the jaw, but with not so much force as the others. The victim Lad a ring on one of her right hand fingers. John Dearing. nged eight years, was horribly mangled. The head was nlmost severed from the body, and the frontal bono completely mashed in, as though caused by several blows in succession. Annie Dear ing, aged four years, was no doubt defend ing herself, as her wounds indicate. First, her urm was nil battered, nnd one of her right fingers chopped off, and another bro ken. There was also a wound directly thiough the head of the shoulder bone. Her throne was cut in tho same manner us the others. The wounds of Thomas Dearing, nged six years, were discovered as follows: The skull was fractured by a terrible blow on the head; another wound, about ttvo inches and a half long, behind the right ear; the right side of tho neck severed, aud pari of the jaw chopped off. Christopher Dearing received a blow on the right side of the head, bnuking in the skull, and a gath in the left side of the neck, inflicted by the axe, as iu the other cases. AI1KEST OK TIIE .M.I.KOEl) M L IlKKItKlt. Antoiue Gauther, allius Probst, tho al leged murderer of the Dearing family, was noticed on Thursday evening on Market street, near tho Permanent Bridge, iu the neighborhood of Twenty-third street. He was suspected by officer Dorscy, who was in company with officers Weldon and Atkinson, through the long strides he made in walking. Officer Dorsey, stepping up to him, said "You arc a German," to which the accused replied, ''I am not I am a Frenchman." Gunther, alias Probst, was then arrester' and taken to the Station House, where ho was detained. Yesterday morning he was taken into the private room of the Lictitcn- While tho accomplice was thus engaged, I Ganther proceeded to murder the boy ! Cornelius. He overtook him ut the liny : stuck, and struck him on the back of the head with nn oxe, after which he cut his ! throat, and then hid his body under the I hay. I The fiendish plot being accomplished, the I two murderers proceeded to the house nnd ; lay in wait for Mr. Dearing and Miss Eliza- beth Dolun. They arrived home about 12 j o'clock, nnd as soon as Mr. Deuring had deposited his carriage in the wagon house, the accomplice (according to the prisoner's statement,) attacked them both, knocking them in the head nnd cutting their throats, after which the bodies wcro carried to tho barn, nnd placed where they were discover I ed. The precious pair then proceeded to j tho house, and nfter collecting together all ! the valuables they could gather, deliberate- ly eut down and eat their dinner, when they lelt and came to the city.
