tolesale Attempt at Poisoning--
' : A Strange Affair.
)n Monday morning, immediately I after
arlsakfast, some of the borders at No. 202
-18 ithileld street, numbering between twenty
' Ave and thirty persons, became quite sick,
two or three of them vomiting violently. The
house 'ls kept by Themes Connor, whose
wile and three children were also if
.
fected, and although there was considerable
alarm, no suspicions of poison were entertain
ed. after dinner, all who ate at the house
became suddenly 111, and it was evident that
an attempt had been made to poison them.
Mr. Wm. Craig, gunsmith, was so ill as to
require the service of a physician, and until
- A o'clock in the evening it was a matter of
"some - doubt whether he would recover or not.
,Vtuel Graham and wife, James Stewart and
e, John Wirbarton, E. Akin, wife and
several others, were all more or
• less injured. Drs. Floyd and Ilalleck were
sinned in, and modems! aid to the su ff erers.
• Itsoon began to be hinted that the landlord
himself, Mr. Connor, had perpetrated the die
- helical act, and this suspicion was founded
••-. upon certain expressions or threats which he
is alleged to have made. Be was not living
- in 'harmony with all in the house, so it is said ;
:but the facts have-not yet been developed, and
- it would perhaps be unfair to give the asser
tions of others against him.
• - It is a little strange that no information
was, given of the affair until yesterday after
noon, when one of the parties informed Mr.
. Hague of the facts. They all declined to ap
pear as pre - minter, and Mr. Hague subscribed
... to the information, upon which a warrant was
• • . Issued. Connor was arrested at his own
house and he had evidently been preparing
'•,• for th at contingency, as he seemed to have
- just finished writing the following document,
which will be found very much confused* in
• - . style,
although written in quite a legible hand:
"I do hereby solemnly swear that some
• malicious person or persons entered my dwell
ing, between the hours of eight o'clock p. m.
- On Sunday evening, Feb. 24th, did with ma
r C intent olon' endeavor to kill me, my wife
and three children, with the names of others
attached,aa boarders in said dwellings Samuel
Graham and *lle, first • story ;-.Eakins and
wifi, with .two children;second story ; also,
, James SUswirt, and wife, steond story; John
- ••- I , Warburton, third story; also,,Mes3lare and
Craig, were sick from the effects of said medi
• . nine or poison. And now further Ido most
soleinnlv testify and swear that a ‘ poisonous
'antidote of any kind ever was or in my hands
~ • for the term often months."
• The above "mixed up" statement was
neither sworn to nor subscribed, and from its
r.. ,
-tenor one would suppose that the writer did
not understand what he was about. Be nor
.;;--• ertheless conversed rationally enough, denied
1 luivinguny knowledge-of . the poisoning, and
asserted - that .he was suck himself, although
this is denied by others. lie is a very
'1 genteel looking- man, and was formerly en
. gaged in putting up and repairing telegraph
" lines.. - He was committed to jail fora further
- • tiering before Mayor Sawyerion Thursday
--. afternoon, at three o'clock.
It h not known in what portion' of the
• - -- wlistuabi the poison was placed, nor has the
. . eharenter of the drug been determined. •

According to previous notice
the citizens of
Findley township met at Clinton, on the 22d
inst., for the purpeie".of consultation with
reference to an adjus k tmertt of the tax question.
The meeting was organized • by appointing
Robert McClarren, Cha irman, and A. M Stew
art, Secretary. •
The following preamble and resolutions
were unanimously adopted:
'Wnearss The national rights of all men
to dispose Of the proceeds of their labor for
their own benefit is what constitutes the differ
ence between the freeman and the slave; there
fore,
Resolved, That we regard an attempt on the
part Of any corporation or company to wrest
from us the proceeds of our honest labors,
thereby making is stockholders in snob cor
poration or company without our consent, is
a direct viotation of the rights of freemen, and
a bold attempt on the part of the few to crush
the many.
Resolved, fonder, That we consider it a
plain and positive duty to resist, by every
means in our power, the efforts that are being
made by the holders of the so called Allegheny
county railroad bonds - to enforce the collec
tion of a tax to pay interest on said bonds.
Resolved, That we deprecate a submission
to such tyranny as redlining ourselves and our
posterity to a condition little better than the
slaves of the South.
Resolved, That we recommend that a meet
ing oe held in the Legislative District, - ecutb
of the river—at Mansfield, or some other suit
able place—to consist of two delegates from
each election district, for consultation and de
.liberation. And, also,-that we recommend
similar meetings in each of the four Legisls
tire Districts of the county.
Resolved, That we recommend to the COnnty
Controller to call a convention of the people
of the county at as early a date as possible,
in order to devise means to dispose of the
• vexed question in the best manner possible.
Resolved, That we will pay no taxes for any
purpose whatever until we are assured that it
will not be need for railroad purposes.
Resolved, That we recommend to the sev
eral townships included in the district men
tioned in the fourth resolution, to take into
consideration the propriety of holding the
meeting proposed in said-resolution.
HIGHWAY ROBBIRY AND ATTEMYTID MUR
DDR.-011 Saturday night last, a drover named
Newman Elwood, from one of the Western
States, was stabbed in the breast, and subse
quently knocked dawn by a blow from a: club,
-while crossing the bridge over the river at
, Harrisburg. His assailant then seised him
by the nick, and stiffed his cries until he had
robbed him of some live hundred dollars in
Money, the proceeds of a recent sale of cattle.
Elwood had observed the fellow following af
ter him, and had turned bank once for the
purpose of escaping him, but entering the
bridge a second time, was assaulted and rob
bed as we have stated.' The Tinian escaped
arrest.

arrested last evening and committed to jail by
Mayer Sawyer upon a charge of passing

ness in the celebrated Rutherford case. She
alleges that he passed the spurious bill upon
her, and received seven dollars in good
money, in change. -

FROI YESTERDAY'S EVENING GAZETTE
Stamped Envelopes vs. Postage
Stamps.
,
The recent introductio n of self-ruled and
stamped envelopes by the Postoffice Depart
melt, "at the price of_unruled envelopes, ren
ders it eo desirable that they should be gen
erally introduced as a substitute for the) stamps,
that we desire to call the attention of our
readers to a few of the reasons why.
Besmear—The stamped envelope is furnish
ed by Postmasters, at the small price of two
mills each, or five for one emit, exclusive of
the cost of the stamps • but when the envelope
and stamp aze . procurixi, separately, the for
mer, of the same quality as that sold by the
Goverment, costa more that twice as much.
By using tho stamped envelope instead of the
stamp, there is, therefore, a virtual reduction
of postage af one-half to four-flfths of a cent
on each letter.
Safety—The use of the stamped envelope
obviates the inconvenience and occasional loss
arising from the frequent neglect to attach
the postage stamp to the ordinary envelope;
the letter, in such case, being detained until
the person addressed' is notified of the tact,
and the postage due remitted.
Coneentence—The black lines incorporated
with this envelope not only supply a great
convenience in the superscription of letters, bu t
also. indicate the proper place for the address,
so as to leave a sufficient blank for the post
mark, thereby avoiding their mutual obliter
ation, and ensuring the speedy and safe trans
mlasion of letters through the mails.
Postmasters are now authorised to receive
any stamped envelopes spoiled in the direc
tion, or otherwise, at the rate of the Stamps
which they bear, exebaige for other stump
ed envelopes.
The Government price for an excellent
of self-ruled and !damped envelope
is $5 18 - per hundred, at which price they are
furnished by all Postmuteri. • As the leading
jeljection to the use of . the stamped envelope
by business men is now removed—Postatas-*
tars being authorised to exchange those spoil
ed in addntsiing; or otherwise—and as they
are cheapar, neater and safer than envelopes
and separate sterops i , we see no reason why
the should not ranch Mirre generally used.
• Now that peoplawho•have little experience
in sult — erscribing lettere are so generally corre
sponding.with friends in the army, or with
friends at home, one prolific source or "mail
failures" would be removed by the use of Gov
ernment stamped envelopes, the stamp being
on the upper right-hand corner, and the lines
Indicating the proper place for the addicts
below. A glance at any lot of "military let
ters"—indeed, at any miscellaneous 'mail—
would .satisfy one of the, great advantage
chalked for the' government eelf-ruled and
stamped envelope.-

"The author of The Heir of Redolyffe" has a '
public ; and the mere announcement of a new
work from the same fertile and facile pen, can
hardly fall to secure *share of attention, even
in these busy war times, when excitement
rushes along the etreete, and almost daily
echoes from far-off battle-fields thrill the hearts
of men, and, more than echoes, voices of iron
throated war are heard, ever and anon, from
east to west—till we feel with the poet, that
"Truth is strange,
Stranger than fiction I"
Yet fiction, when cunningly devised, has so
many ardent votaries everywhere,—not exclu
sively confined to the young either,—that we
should not be by any means greatly surprised
to find that "The Young Step-Mother" is to
be as extensively read as the former works of
its author. Like all the publications issued
by Messrs. Appleton, we may add that these
volumes are well printed, and this is no in
considerable accessory charm, which enhance,
all those native ones_ belonging to a good
story well told.
Tae RZBiLLION RZCOIID, TARS XIII.—
This valuable 'work is still steadily progress
ing, having with the present number reached
the commencement of the third volume. Had
not such • work been-undertaken at the time
it wait, no after research could have recorded
some of the materials for history which are
here preserved. Much of the same kind, in
every past age, has been irrecoverably lost' to
the historian ; and it is a matter of congratu
lation that so complete and comprehensive a
work is being done for us, and those who will
come after us, having been undertaken at the
right time and by one of proved competency.
Part .XIII contains portraits of the Hon.
Gideon Welles, and Com. S. F. Dupont, U. S.
Navy.

Pittsburgh and Coupeßavine Rail-
The annual report of the operations of this
Company has been issued in pamphlet form.
We extract briefly as follows:
The floating debt was, on the 31st of Octo
ber, 1861, $85,312.09, being $17,442.78 more
.than on the same day the preceding year.
.There have been expended daring the year
for construction and equipment, right of way
and real estate, $15A02.56 upon the western,
and $975.24 upon the eastern division of the
road—the litter being on account of the Com
pany's property at4he Sand Patch Tunnel.
The year's expenditures upon the Turtle Creek
division have been 56,800 in bonds secured
on that divieton, for contract work thereon ;
also $6,000 in the same bonds for spikes
and chairs—s2,o96,97 in cash for freights on
&c.—59,054,82 in cash for right of way
—52,832,92 in cash for engineering and super.
intendence—s3,9lo,l7 in cash for improve
ment of Pittsburgh Depot. Since the organ
' (ration of the Company in 1846, to the end of
this official year, the entire expenditures un
der the above heads have been $1,964,063,77,
of which $1,479,784,23 has been spent upon
the Western, $219,900,00 upon the Eastern
and $264,379,02 upon the Turtle Creek Di
vision. • •
Thetotal revenue of theyoar was $70,105 75.
This is made up of $22,426 30 for transport
ing 60,968 passengere—of $43,993 24 for 56,-
539 tons of freight—of $3,200 for carrying the
mail, and of $486 21 for incidentals and shop
'work done for other pirties, making the aggre
gate just given., The revenue of the preceding
year was $.80;552 81, so that this year's re
ceipts. have been the least of the two by $lO,-
447 06, or 13. per centum—the decrease being
$6,178 08 in passengers, $4,352 62 in freight
—shop work $716 36, while the increase on
the mails is $BOO, showing the total decrease
as aboie.
The causes of this reduction of revenue are
readily to be aeon, in the altered political con
dition of the country, during the past year,
which has had so disastrous an effect upon its
internal state and relations.
Since the opening of the Turtle Creek Divi
sion, however; the decline was arrested, and a
marked inerease was manifested. The pros
peOts of the road are dwelt upon at consider
able length, and it is confidently believed
that with its completion to its eastern ter
mini in Pennsylvania and-Maryland it would
be flooded with height and travel, and become
ono of the most profitable roads in the
country.
Oil Refineries..-Micas au the Water
Ens. GAzarts : I wish to draw theattention
of the press to what I and many others fear
will result in a great calamity to our citiee,
and to- hundreds of others who reside in the
vicinity of our rivers. Since the discovery of
Petroleum up the Allegheny, and elsewhere,
an almost incredible amount of it Is refined
in oar neighborhood, and upon the banks of
our rivers. After distillation, I understand the t
sulphttrie acid, in very large quantities, is used
in the process of clearing and deodorising it.
A reliable fisherman informed me that it has
already destroyed thousands of our best fish,
and if come remedy is not soon applied our
rivers will be Bohlen. A gentleman showed me
two fine horses who were ruined by being in
the river where the water was impregnated
with refuse. Their legs were hairless, and
presented the appearance of having had oil of
vitriol applied to them. All along thes horse
of our rivers a black and offensive matter ac
cumulates, rendering it-exeeedingly unpleas
ant to any who reside in that vicinity, or may
have business to transact along the shores. I
asked an experienced' physician what his
opinion was 'as to the effect It would have upon
the health of our citizens who rise the water
of the Allegheny river, in case we should have
a season of low water. Ile remarked it would
kill us by the thousands. If these things are
really so, what can and what ought we to do.
My object is simply to direct your's and other
abler pens to this subject. • Pate WiTILlt.
