It is generally understood that 0111Y ol the questions submitted to three eminent cur goons, \vaJ whether with such a slick as that described in the confession, a stable blow could be given, which wWv.M causa death in ten minutes, in tho manner described. Tho answer was that it was inprobablo. Tli t two other questions r.ro also stated to have boon answered adversely to the confession. Another point of doubt is, that the sink in tho room where the confession stales that tho body was dismembered, does not eon tain a stop-cock lor Cochiluatc water. The confession states that tho Coohittiaio water was turned upsn tho body in this sink. Tho Ravages of lliu Cholera at C'lnc.n cittl, CINCINNATI, July 0.

DAKINO HIGHWAY ROBBERIES AND Anr.ESTOV THE ROBBERS. —On Monday night week tho store of Mr.'Jacob Berdes, in this Borough, was entered and robbed. On tho following night the s'oro of Mr. S. Black, on tho Ila zleton Turnpike, was entered in Lire man ner. On Friday afternoon Mr. Marx Strouse a merchant of otir town, re'urfted homo and reported that ho had bec.i stopped a few miles hack on the 1 ante rot.!, and bis money demanded, aid his life threatened by two men with loaded pistols. O.i Saturday night several trunks were cut from the boot of the mat! stageiti tho same neighborhood, ami robbed ot their contonto. Those reports coming upon tiio publio began to create 110 Title alarm and uneasino.-ts. On Sunday last. Air. Samne! L. Cellurn, a Constable from Maueh Chunk, was stopped upon the Ilazle ton Turnpike between Drum's ami the Spring House tavern, by two foot pads who robbed him of fifty do lars. Mr. Kellum had noticed at the spring House, a number of young men with rifles practising at mark.— Ho hastened to tho house, secured their ser vices. traced the robbers to a piece of wood, and there arrested them. They wero pronqt !y taken before Mr. Justico Drumholier, of Sugarloaf .ownship, and committed by him to tho Jail of this county. The were bro't to our Borough and placed in confinement, where thoy wero at onco recognized by Mr. Strouso as tho same men who robbed him on Friday last. They were brought before Justice Burrows on Monday morning and re committed by him upon the latter charge.— They are active, suspicious looking young rascals, neith r of them apparently having reached the age of twenty-one. They gave their names as Charles Dunlnp and John Thompson, and nro doubtless from one of the cities, probably old offenders for their ago. Thcyjure probably the same men who robbed tho two stores mentioned obovo, at.d also the stage, as a part of the clothing in the plundered trunks was found upon them. In committing those bold robberies they used tho most savage and threatening l.u - gungo—Their arrest is fortunate, and too much praise cannot be awarded to Mr. Kd- lum, for his promptness in , ursuing thoni •after they had robbed him. With this addi tion, the Jail is made a perfect hive of LUT dened reprobates, and it will be fortunajl" indeed if they can ba safely held urgii the Penitentiary claims its fugitives.—H'ilacsbar .re Advocate.
