ITORRiBLK Family of Sen.
•en Persons " Murdered:—Thu %Yahoo!)
(Ind.) Gazette extra, contains an account
of the thocovery of the bodies of a family
of seven persons, near that piece, of the
name of French. who had been brutally
murdered. - It appears the fatuity consisted
of French, hie wife, and children. They
were very poor, an I lived in a cabin, and
in September last, auother family, of the
name of Hubbard, war.t to live with them.
During October. a neighbor proceeded to
the cabin to see French, and was told by
the Hubbard. that the family had moved
away, and that they had puechsed all their
corn, garden produce and furniture, val
ued in the aggregate at not over $2O, -No
suspicion o! foul play. was aroused, until
recently, when the Hubbard* were arrest
ed, on suspicion of murdering a man nem.
ed poyles. • The house was then search.
ed. and a portion of the ground floor dug up,
which resulted in the knifing of the dead
body of an 'infant, vary -much . decoyed. —_
The Gazette theu, after' lefering , to the
summoning of a coroner!ii Wiliest, says
In the presence of a large coin pony they
proceeded to examine the place where
the infant hail been discovered, and, horri
ble to relate, fOund seven bodies. consist
ing of the entire' "French cooly! Their
skulls Aire all broken in, and the legs of,
the old man French and his wife were braf
keo, so,that they could be doubled up and
,I•orced into the hole, which was three or
four feet deep. They were laid in a heap,
the father and .the mother it the bottom,
and the children on top. 'The babe was a
bout. fifteen months old, and the eldest
child
,about fiteen years old. 'rho chit
dren.were much decayed, but the parents'
were still sound, and easily recognized by
those who had known them.. Theta
is not the least doubt the Hubbard. are
guilty of this - wholdsale 'and damning mur
der. It is almost too horrible for belief, but
thefaist is as above stated.and the conclusion
isirresistible. The Hubbard* are all in
jail. There seems to have been no other
motive than - the obtaining what few world
ly goods this . poor family possessed,
Which were not worth over fifty dollars !

Cnikar.xtrox. Aril 14111.—The Brit.
ish meaner Clyde 'arrived at Havana nn
the Bth inst., in six days from Vera Cruz.
bringing adyines six days later than those
by way of New Orleans. Every thing
indicates the speedy tall of Santa Anna.
Moteno's disaffection and , subsequent cap
ture and execusiou were all fabulous, got
up to entrap Alvarez.
Col. Birea was..discometted at Cajores,
and his whole regiment dispersed by
the revolutionists ; those attempting to re
cross Popagango river where drowned.
Governer Maximo Ortez, whilst on the
march from Itchinean to Tehuantepec,
fall into an ambuscade, and his whole
force of six hundred were nearly annihila
ted.
The accounts from the South are favor
able to the zause of the Revolutionists.—
Alvarez is supreme in Guerrera, and the
opinion is universal that Santa Anna will
be obliged to fly. It-is also evident that
the allied powers have stimulated the
Mexican internal commotions to bring
Mexico on the other side and identify her
with Cuba.
EARTIMAKK AT BROUASA.--Farther

tails have been received of the dreadful
earthquake that recently destroyed one
third of the flourishing city'of litoussa, in
Turkey. The panic caused by the de.
Infection of the cone buildings is hide.
scribable. The population- of Broussa
rushed out into the fields terror stricken.
The wounded 'were dug out of the ruins
as. rapidly as possible, and conveyed to
temporary hospitals.. The first day 500
wounded persons were recovered. It
was under the Khans, baths and mosques,
which are all of stone, that the. most seri
ous casualties occurred. The silk spin
ning factories, belonging to Europeans
and'natives, have more or less suffered.—
In Mr. Dzezairli's establishment upwards
of 70 ptior young girls were killed.
Brouesa is celebrated for its .thermal
springs, and it is a moat extraordinary
phenomenon that two of the springs have
disappeared, whilst that called Caplidza
was turned out of its bed, and the water
now runs in an opposite direction. Du
ring the earthquake a large rock was ob
served to detach itself from Olympus, and
roll down like a ;tremendous avalanche,
carrying in WI descent trees, bullies, and
atones, until it arrived' at the bottom of
the ravine on the other side of tits city
The . 'nuinber ofitilled are set down at 500,
with twice as many wounded, and two
hundred and fifty mosques have been de
stroyed.

Ic7mThe Catalogue of the Medical De

session of 1854-55, gives gratifying 'evi
dence of the prosperity of the Institution.
During the past session 186 students at
tended lectures. The session fur 1855-56
will commence on the Bth of October uezt.
The Faculty of this Institution will compare
favorably with the oldest Medical Colleges
tu the country, and we may anticipate for
it a rapid increase of patronage.
Important Correction
It is generally supposed that the County-
Treasurers have a right to grant licences to
Merchants, Brewers and Lager-beer sellers
under the old law, until the first of Octo
ber next. The following proviso, which
was added to the Bill " to restrain the sale
of intoxicating liquors," makes all such
licences utterly worthless. It was added
in the Senate, and adopted by the /louse,
and entirely escaped the reporter, in mak
ing a copy for publication. It should be
added to the end of Section 4, and reads as
follows :
"Provided further.—That so snitch of
of any sots or act of assembly, as requires
a license from ti City or County Treasurer,
to authorize the sale of spirituous, vinous
or malt liquors, be and the same is hereby
repealed."
'‘The Missing Bride," is the title
of a new novel by Mrs. Southworth, au•
thor of "The Lost Heiress," "The Wife's
Victory," and other popular stories, , now
in press by T. B. PrrEasoN, 102 Chesnut
street, Philadelphia. Mrs. SIM II WORTH
is ono of the most original and talented
female writers of the day, and this work is
pronounced by those who have read the
advanced sheets fully equal to her former
efforts, "engrossing, thrilling and inter
esting." Complete in one largo volume,
neatly bound in cloth, for *1 25 ; or in
two volumes, paper cover, for $l. Cop
ies of either edition will be sent to any
person, in any part of the United States,
free of postage, on their remitting the
price of the edition they may wish, to the

the Metropolitan Hotel. Upon ifie tables
were displayed a bust of Henry Clay and
a variety of ornaments in pastry ; the din- !
ncr was excellent, and - indeed the whole
appointments were all that could be desired.
Excellent speeches were made by a
number of distinguished gentlemen. J.
Dixon Roman, of Maryland, spoke in re.
sponse to the following toast :
'the Perpetuity of the Union—To be
maintained, now and forever, by the Union
of all national men.
Ilon. J. P. Kennedy was not present,
having been detained at borne by indispo

cluding with the following sentiment:

The Tribune says it is the duty and in
terest of every man who owns a piece of
land wheron he can sow a bushel of grain,
I not totallow the spring to slip by without
doiug it. We are at starvation prices in
breadstuffs as well as in meat. We shall
have a famine if We do not: look out. The
nations of Europe are engaged in the am.
mLle b us i ness o f btudlering one another,
land if the half dozen gentlemen at Vienna
and their hackers do not coma to terms,.
this state of things will continue, and per
, haps for half a dozen seasons. Under
such
,citeattistanees, the drain upon us for
foreign consumption is likely to be greater
than it has ever been before. Our present
reserves of breadstuffs wart be very light,
as the high prices of corn plainly denote.
Our corn crop last year was wonderfully
small, as was well establishes' at harvest
time without aid from the prices current.
Entering upon the yea'r with exhausted
granaries at home, with a poor crop follow
ing, and an immense European demand,
grove apprehension may well be excited as
to our circumstances a year hence. We
have had a hard winter and enormously
high prices throughout. But what is all
we have seen to what we shall see, if we
should chance to have a bad summer, and
the war goes on in Europe. , We may then
see suffering and starvation in earnest.

NEFFOUNDLAND SUBMARINE
TELEGRAPIL—The steamer Victoria,
i belonging to the Now York, Newfound
i land and London Telegraph Company, is
I being fitted out at New York, and will
sliwirtly be dispatched to Newfoundland, to
be employed iu completing tho telegraph
line in progress of construction. It is sta
ted that the company confidently expects
to have telegraph communication estab
lished between New York and St Johns,
Newfoundland, by the first of July next,
when the European steamers will call there
on their trips between America and Eu
rope. There is, therefore, a probability
that in three months the two continents
will bo within six days of each other, up
on an average, for all purposes of telegraph-1
le communication.
The Grossing Crops
11:50The fine warm rains of the last
week or two have done much toward de
veloping the hitherto backward growing
chop. Accounts from the West generally
represent the grain as being in a fine con
dition. In Tennessee it is said to be unu
sually promising, and the only danger now
apprehended to it is that it is growing :go
rapidly that the lam frosts may injure it.—
If not the crop promises to be a first rate
one.

"seeing the elephant." Going from New

about three distinct double horse teams.—
The animal is perfectly tract-0)1e. His'
attendant rides him, while a colored man
guides the plow. The elephant is also
used for carting large loads of gravel in a
cart arranged purposely for him, and in
drawing stone on a stone bout or drag, in
piling up wood, timber, Ace., and in ma- I
Icing himself generally useful.
FLOWER GARDENS.—Now is the
time to attend to this suLsket —a pleasant
task, which the lovers of floral beauties
are not inclined to neglect. It is true
that the work is fatiguing; but itis health

of flowers is unirersal--cadults awl infants
alike sharing in the admiration of garden
products. ..Ah." you may say, have
no ground attached to my premises for a

that Secretary Guthrie has written to a

We have already ennounirbd the loss of

[From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
A Clergyman Engaged to be Mar
' sled to Eleven Ladles.
We heard yesterday of a series of vil
monies perpetrated recently by a wolf in
sheep's clothing, of a character to bring
the reverend imposter, if caught; to the
Penitentiary. His name is John Howard
Wilson, and he has been _preaching for
some time put at Cheviot. Being en
dowed with a soft, oily tongue, and a
sleek appearance, he tried his killing ac
complishments indiscriminately among the
unmarried belles of that suburban village
with such success that he engaged him
self to he married toil() less than eleven, I
some of whom he borrowed money from
upon pretence of making the necessary
arrangements towards house-keeping. Of
one young lady he obtained $5O, which
he laid between the leaves of a Bible in
her parlor, to be used the day previous
to the wedding ; but when, upon hearing 1
of the pranks of the sanctimonious Lotha
rin, she looked in the hiding-place, the
bank bills were not est.
The manner which led to the discovery
of his multifarious engagements war; that
a couple of the betrothed met, by--acci
dent, in a fashionable . dry goods establish
ment in this city. After mutual recogni
tion, they proceeded to examine various
fshrirks, and make purehases. Singular
ly enough their tames assimilated so ex
actly that young lady No. 1 remarked to
young lady No. 2 that she thought it was
very strange. Hereupon young lady No.
2 replied that so it was ; hut, if she (young
lady No. 1) could keep a secret, she would
tell her one.
Number one promised (what femine
would not ?) !hat her lips should be eter
nally sealed, when, blushing like a peony,
her companion whispered in her ear that
she was going in be married.
..To whim r exclaimed the exalted
number one.

The name was again repeated, and
forthwith young lady number one became
dizzy, and, but for the applica
tion of and vo/oti/ and cold water, a faint
ing exhibition in the mercer establishment
would have en.med. After a while, when
stilliewitily calm to explain, she informed
ylmog lady number two that she, ton, was
under an engagement of tnarriagn to the
reverend drceiver, and she was then
making purchases of her wedding gar
ments,
Another kettle of fish was the eonse
; quence of this di,closure, for young lady
'lumber mil immediately went through
the s.onii motions as her predecessor, and
again the pungent mixture and cold water
were in requiiiiiim. The disconsolate
damsels returned, without purchases, to
the quiet vil:age. where they speedily pro.
claimed the villiany of the rascally pastor,
who, getting wind that all was discovered,
made tracks between two days during the
past week.
Since his exit, it has been discovered
that he sometime ago forged a draft on
Mr. Elliot, of the Methodist Book Con
cern, which was honored. No tidings
have been heard of him since his engem.-
Illation, but we presume he will turn up
under another name, when he can discover
a convenient field to reap a harvest by
playing npoli the credulity of the sitscepti
ble kin inir,cs who have a penchant for
love and sanctity.
