HORRIBLE MURDER
Wanda cad ksv child antrdered by her husband
--hiesteteaspt to sommit nrieide.
It is ear peinfulduty to record one of the meet hor
rible tourden that herr ever happened incur city yes
seeds, morning, between 7 and 8 o'clock, a man by the
Eased clones Diehl, a Painter in the employ of Mr
Spear:stand Ming:on Sixth street,opposite the Episcopal
ebaseh, esordered his wife and one child; horribly
outuated another, arid es third (the eldest child, e
girl,) may saved her life by flight. He was of in
temperate habits, was in destitute circumstances, and
it is said was partially deranged for some weeks past.
His victims are horribly mangled; the forehead of
the woman, down to the eyes, was literally smashed
as wastage the back part of the head of the child.—
The other child it is thought will not survive the inju
ries it btu; receive-l. The sight of the mangled body of
the woman in the wretched house where they lived, ev
ery thing around bearing the marks of wretchedness,
poverty and crime. presented the most painful specta
cle we ever beheld, and such as we never wish to look
upon age,. 'lt was a terrible warning to the intem
perate and vicious, and could not but make the most
hardened shudder.
Afterperpetraung the revolting but Chery of hie fam
ily, he attempted to commit suicid*; by cutting his
throat and striking himself on the head With aflat-iroa.
When discovered he was sitting at she fire with the
blood flowing from the wounds inflicted on himself
Ha was taken to the Mayor's office, butt on account of
his wound* and the excitement of thecrowd thatthmug.
ed the office, it wet impossible for the .Mayo r to have
him examined, and after having the gashes in his neck
stitched up he was sent to jail for the present.
After he was committed, the Mayor sent for Coronor
HARTZ, and a jury being summoned, the result of thei r
deliberations was,that she came to her detith by wounds
inflicted with several instruments such its a hatchet,
Sat-iron, knife and fork.
During the examinatio n of the jury it was discover
ed that she had been stabbed in:the bodyin four or five
places with a three pronged fork. Her head, besides
being beaten with some heavy instrument appears to
have been deeply gashed with a knife.
The wounded child was still living,bnt there was very
little hope of its recovery. It, head is dreadfully cut,
and one of its eyes is knocked out.
The little girl that escaped says her father was not 1'
drunk yesterday morning. He desired her- mother on
Sunday to get him some whiskey which she refused to
do, and he then swore that he would kill her in the
morning; he k ept his promise fearfully.
Diehl is represented by those who are acquainted 1
with him as an inotfensire man, but given to intemper- I
ate habits. He used his wife well when sober, but
has frequently beaten her, and threatened to kill her,
when ho was drunk. He joined the temperanc e society
about twayearsago,but unfortunately for hiMself"brolce
the pledge" on the 4th of July succeeding. He has
• father, brother and two sisters residing at George.
town, sone miles below this city. They are very res
pectable people, and in tolerable circumstances. We
are told that at n place where he was working last'
week his conduct indicated that he was laboring un- i
der an attack of mania a potu, and his converaation
was like a person perfectly insane. He declared that
it was against the lees of the city to vro.k, 'and was
afraid the authorities would fine him. He -is about
35 years of age, and is rather a good looking; man.
His victim was an exceedingly arn'able j woman,
whose only fault was too greats devotion th a hus
band unable to appreciate her excellent qualities.—
Het- father lives is Greensburg, and she a:brother,
a Palmer, in Greonsburgh or Hollidaysburgh. She
was raised by her grandfather chiefly, a map named
Philips, who kept a large stage tavern at idahayunk,
• few miles from Philadelphia, and was married un
der the name of Mary Philips. Her uncle node keeps
the tavern, or lives near there. She had a very hand
some property left her by her grandfather, which at the
solicitation of her husband, she disposed of, and the
proceeds of which he has very nearly squandered.—
There is however, some little left for her children.—
She was about 30 years of age, and, yvhen a girl was
handsome. Trouble, ill usage and distress had well
nigh broken her heart, and in a very short time, she
would have saved Diehl the fearful crime of which he
stand* charged.
They had four children.—The oldest is a girl be
tween Sand 9 years of age. The secotd is absent at
Georgetown, and is btitween 6 and 7; the third sodan
gerously hurt, is about 5 years old; and little Mary Ann
whom he killed by dashing her bead against the wall,
was 3 years old.
They first lived in Reading, Berksccethen moved to
Cincinnati, then to Kentucky, and at length to Pitts.
burgh. Since they came here they have often
been starving, and dependant upon the charity of neigh
bors. Diehl himself is from Lancaster.
HICATIM—MisI CLARENDON has been busily en
gaged for some weeks past in fitting up the Theatre in
• tastsful and elegant style, that evinces the anxious de
sire of the fair Manageress to please the patrons of the
Drama in Pittsburgh. The house has undergone a
complete renovation, and it now looks as well in every
department as it did on the first night it was opened.--
If there is as much good taste displayed in selecting
entertainments for our play goers, as has been exhibi
ted in deco rating the House, the ensuing season must
be a successful eve.
MAR4}fLLL TAME.. ---This case which created
so much excitement during the last trial, was called up
again yesterday. The whole list of Jurors was ex
hausted and only six could be found that had not made
up, or expressed, an opinion in the case. The Sher
if wts then ordered to "run down" a few more citi.
sena, and at length a jury was empatmelled competent
to try the ease.
'The Overseers of the Poor request us to state

swill take piece this afternoon, at 3 o'clock, from her
