DREADFUL MURDER IN HAYTI!
About half past 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, the
riotous and lawless conduct which has so lung charac
terized the bleck inhabitanU of Hayti, in Pitt town
ship; above the city, resulted in the death of a colored
woman, named Etiza Moons. It appears that she
andanother colored woman named SUSAN MAILS were
at the house of Mehemet York, wherra few angry
words passed between them, and York took hold of
Susan and was putting her out of the house, when she
struck over her shoulder, as it was at first thought with
her fist, but which afterwards appeared to have been
with a butcher knife, which stabbed Eliza in the left
breast, causing a wound about 7 inches deep, of which
she died in a few minutes. Der WATT and VAN HORN,
who made a post mortem examination, describe the
'external wound as about an inch and a quarter long,
entering the breast on the left aide, immediately below
the clavicle, or collar bone, severing the sub-clavian
artery, passing into the pericadium, or coverinc of the
heart,%ntering the substance of heart, through the left
Attricle.'
Constables McKelvy and Dougheray arrested Susan,
and she is now in prison.
The Coroner's Jury consisted of Jas C. Cummins.
Esq. Foreman; Bernard Dougherty, John Keating, W m
Ferral, Sensual Ridge, Thomas Teekaberry, Thomas
A. Rowley, Robert McAdams, Wm Neeper, James
Harriett, Wm McWhorter and A J Grail**, who gave
a Verdict that she cams to her death by a wound in
dicted in the left breast by Susan Mails.
AITEMPTED SUICIDE--A man named FISHER,
while in a state of partial derangemsent, attempted to
commit suicide, on Saturday, on Smithfield street, by
cutting his arm with a knife. He was fortunately se
cured before be made any dangerous wound.

der of his wife and child, went to the jury on Satur

RATIONAL AND BEAUTIFUL ENTERTAINMENT. -
Besides the admirable Dioramic scenes and the al
most incomprehensible Italian Funtoccini. I lanning
ton this night brings out for the first time, the
much admired and extremely effective Confla

we doubt the Theatre's capability of accommodating
his audience. We cannot help complimenting Mr H.

ontinttance of which, with a change in his exhibition,
cannot fail ensuring him full houses of the first respec

SENTENCE OF THOMAS W DOlll4.
Correquuulenee of the NTT rihune.
N PORI ,R. 1., June 25,1814
Chief Justice Durfee this clay sentenced Thomas W
thirr to hard labor in the State Prison for life. In
this address to the prisoner the Chief Justice exhibited
Itonsiderable e notion. The performance of a like
duty would, he said. in any case, be extremely painful,
but doubly so in the present instance, as he had in
limes past enjoyed the intimate acquaintance and
friendship of the prisoner.
Mr Dorr made a brief awl somewhat bold address
in reply. the substance of which was that, as lamenta
ble ns his situation might appear to some, be would
be very sotry to exchange it for that of the Chief Jug
tic,. When Mr Dorr finished his address, it was very
generally observed here that he had lessened his chan
ces for an early pardon, by the tone and spirit of his
remarks.
EXTENSIVE FIRE IN BOSTON.
Correspondence of the New York Tribune.
Borros, Tuesday, June 25, 3i P. NI
A fire of the most disastrous character occured
Isere today, originating in a steam planing establish
reset, corner of Dover and Suffolk streets, west of
Wushingten. The wind, unfortunately blowing hard,
from the S. W. the entire square was swept ata, eon •
tatiningt/se Franklin GrammarSchool,an entice house
and about twenty dwelling houses; most of them fine
first clue basses, renting for five hundred dollars per
annum. The savare is contained between Washing
ton, Deese, SeFulk and Garland s.reets; one house
only remaidsag. Mick valuable furniture tins been
sacrifice& suck was the rapidity of the flames little
could be saved from each house.
Boston has not teem visited with so serious a fire
for years.
The flames are now subdued, and there ere nu fears
of its further progress. Loss probably not less than
1113(1,041111,, insurance net ascertained
In leasse , yours truly,
The Boston Mercantile Scurnal sore-
Quarter past 2 ectock.—W II have just learned
that the fire has creased Dover street, and that the
brick dwelling house of Rev. J. T. Sargent and the
Louse adjoining, en the north side of street. arc de
stroyed. All the sheds and outbuildings in the rear
of the dwelling house on the south side of Gatland
street ate on fire, and it is impossible to say where the
destructing will cease. Engines from Roxbury,
Charlestown, Cambridge and the adjoining towns, are
rendering all possible assistance.
Marriage ofthe President.— HisExcel lency Joule
TYLI6a was married yesterday to the beautiful Miss
Gardner of Long Island. The ceremonials were per
formed at the Ascension Church. in presence of a few
of the President's confidential friends. The happy
couple left the city yesterday afternoon in the Phila
delphia train under escort of numerous friends.—N.
Y. Plediaa.
NAUVOO
Rather Serious —We have later news from this
place. The reports still indicate an approaching con
test, and it will probably be a war of extermination
The citizens are arming with the most deadly and de
termined purpose to rid the country of their Nauvoo
neighbors. The Mormons are preparing for defence;
they have about 4.000 persons under arms, holding in
their possession the public arms of the State of Illi
nois, which were delivered to them some time ago.
The fierce spirit of indignation that has been enkin
dled against the Mormons in the upper part of Illi
nois cannot be appeased, and nothing else but the spee
dy flight of Joe Smith and all the leading Mormons,
can prevent a terrible scene of bloodshed. The pep.
ple appear determined not to await the tardy and time
*nerving movements of the Governor of Illinois; and
we may soon expect to hear of war. and bloodshed.
Nauvoo is still under martial law, and boats are not
permitted to land. The latest news from there was
brought to St Louis on Friday night, and was to the
effect that the allied would march upon the prophet,
being some three or four thousand strong, on the next
slay. Saturday last: The iMotitions are said to be al
ready- short of pruvisions---Ciu. Cont.
MuRBIOPr MATTIMS.—The St. Louis Reporter of
the 21st Ult. Contains the following items:
We have rectged nothing definite in relation to the
Mormon difficulties. The people in the neighborhood
of Nauvoo were organizing into military companies
at the latest dates, and arming themselves for a serious
conflict. They were not expected to make any attack
upon Nauvoo, until the return of the messengers sent
to the Governor, and when they return we suppose
the law will take its way without bloodshed.
A mandamus has been issued by Judge Pope, of
Illinois, against the Nauvoo Council, for ordering the
office of the Expositor to be dem3lished, and thus ex
ceeding the authority granted by the Charter of the
city.
