Disinterment or the Bodies of the
ItrilLeesport Murderers.
\UM Wolff, Eister of Charlotte Jones, who was
executed on Friday, came to this city some time
last week fur the purpose of having the bodies of
Charlotte and Fifo conveyed to Monongahela city
for interment, after the execution. She bad not the
moans to effect this, and the bodies were accordingly
taken from the scaffold to the Methodist graveyard,
where they were decently buried. After tacir inter
ment, a subscription'was raised by some of our
lib
oral citizens, for the purpose of enahling Mrs. Wolff
to remove the bodies, when, on applicati N
on t: - ) Sher_
Patterson, the Sheriff gave au order to Mr. lt. N.
Avery, giving him permission to . take up and remove
the bodies. About eleven o'clock on Friday night
the party proceeded to the graveyard in pursuance of
this intention, and w. re engaged in disinterring the
bodies, when the Mayor, at the head of a posse of
the night police, made his appearance. Ho demanded
why they undertook to remove the remains. When
ono of the party answered that they had authority
for s- doing, the Mayor demanded the written proof,
threatening to arrest them if it was not shown, and
the order of the Sheriff was accordingly produced.
They were then allowed to resume their work, the
bodies were soon disinterred, and on Saturday morn
ing were taken to Monongahela city in chargo of
Mrs. Wolff.
It seems that the Mayor had been informed by
~,some officious person that the bodies were being re
7f,,noved, and that he, with a sense of his duty, gathered
1p a detachment of police and went to the grave
yard for the purpose of preventing this supposed
desecration of the grave. We think the persons in
terested in taking tip the bodies might have selected
!I loss suspicious time than midnight for accomplish
ing their work, but there may bo something in the
report that a party of medical students intended
visiting the spot for the same purpose, and that the
expedition was hurried forward for the purpose ..f
forestalling them, and also to keep the matter
private as possible, and cheat the gaping curiosity
gossips of a sight which they would have flocked to
witness in daylight.

The dwelling house on the farm of Mr. Jacob Nit
cell, in East Lackawannork township, Mercer county,
was destroyed by fire on Thursday last. Mr. Henry
Young and his family, who occupied the house, were
absent at the time, and their entire household prop
erty, wearing apparel, except what they had on, and
about one hundred bushels of cure were consumed.
It is not known how the tiro originated. By this ae

Disgraceful Procestlings—ftl rs.
ALtacked by a Mob
After the execution of Henry Fife and Charlotte
Jones on Friday, their bodies were taken down and
placed in plain coffins, which were placed in a furni
ture wagon to be conveyed to the grave-yard nhere
they wore interred,in the Seventh Ward: Mrs. Width,
a sister of the deceased Charlotte, who preserved hor
affection for a degraded sister to the very last, through
all the trying circumstances which surrounded her,
got into the wagon and , seat herself on one of the
coffins to accompany the remains to the' grave. As
a matter of course, a large crowd of idlers gaoiered
around and followed the vehicle. For a time they
were peaceable, but as the wagon approached the
grave-yard, the wretches in the rear iietrd most c et
ragously. They hallowed and hootcd at Mrs. WoT,
heaping the most disgusting and epprobious epithets
upon her, and actually threw dirt and stones at her
while performing the lrst sacred rites for her sister.
Her shawl viola torn from her person by the mob. or
coarse no one of any respectability was concerned in
this affair; the mob was carapos4 of people from toe
ilonrost dregs of society, mostly negroes. Some re •
speetable citizens noticed this brutal treatment, an t
'interposing, the crowd was finally driven away, sad
the dismal cortege moved on. None of the part - 129
-engaged in this disgraceful affair have yet been ar
rested, but we hope the Mayor will use his authority
to arresyand bring to justice these hardened W re tch-

Conspiracy and Kidnapping.
Quito an interesting case cause to-light an Satur,
the circumstances of which, as far as we can as
certain them, we give below :
Some five years ago, a mulatto man, named George
W. Farris, escaped from his master, a wealthy
planter, by the name of Roiglan, near Tuscumbia,
Alabama, who was also the reputed father of Farris.
lie Ir,,s a fine mechanic, came to Pittsburgh, married
and settled. Shortly after he came here, ho was fol
-1,...red by a man named Georgo Shaw, who used every
paisible means in his power to entice him into the
South ; hut without success, until a year since, when,
by showing forged letters to Farris, ho induced him
to go to St. Louie,
and from there to a small town in
that vicinity called Brunswick, for the ostensible pur
pose of procuring work as a bricklayer. Here he was
arrested by the United States authorities, and taken
back to Alabama. His wife remained here daring
his absence, and is engaged at Miss Kimberly's Then
tre in some minor capacity, with her child, a bright
little urchin, now three or four years of age. About
a week since, Mrs. Farris received intimations that
Shaw bad returned from Missouri, and being aware
of the part ho had taken in the abduction of her hus
band, became alarmed lest he should endeavor to ob
tain possession of her child. On the 11th of Febru
ary she received a note from James A. Tarrohco,
constable in Allegheny City, mid fearing this sea.
part of a plot for ,intaining the child, she mode in
formation aghast Shaw and Torrence for conspi
racy. Another information was also entered against
them for an attempt to athluct and ki !nap the child.
Officers Moon and Patterson wore despatched after
these men, and Torrence and Shaw were arrested. A
man named Cancel, a property man at the Theatre,
was also arrested on suspicion of
neing a party to the
a 6 ir. After a hearing before the Mayor,4'orrance

in the felony, and Shaw, being unable to ob,ain

Shaw boasts that he bas bt.en in pursuit ittf Parris
for five yeas, for which he says he has received one
dollar and a quarter per day, during all Glatt time,
and five hundred dollars in cash. When arrested he
handed to lii. wife a pocket book, which ho after
wards stated was filled with Georgia and Alabama
money, supposed to be the proceeds of this nefarious
transaction. It is stated that at ono time he offered
to a woman in this city ono hundred dollars if she
would decoy Ferris to her house, where ho could ad
minister chloroform to him and carry him off. He
also offerod to Mr. John Dignam and another man,
bricklayers, fifty dollars, if they would decoy him
off into Virginia, under pretence of working, there.
This same ,Shaw was arrested in July, 1855, for
tweakine• into the house of Mrs. f4arfliner, in the
Ninth Ward. When arrested, a bottle of chloroform
and some burglars' tools were found in his posses

So it teems that he has been tamiliar with the use of
ehlornforta.
In addition to the information already made, Mrs.
Farris will this morning make a ihird affidavit
against ItiM, for attempting to abduct and kidnap
her hushaTal. The ponishlnont for this eritne, by the

WASHINGTON CITY, February 14.—The TlOnj , rity
of the Senate Committee on Territories aro prepar

sax into the Union under the Lecompton Constitution.
They are acting without reference to the question
whether the Free State or Pro• Slat cry party has the
Legislature and State Officers. In deference to Mr.
Douglas, the Chairman of rho Committee, who has
serious illness in his family, the report will probably
not, he made before Thursday, in order to give hint
time to prepare his dissenting views. Messrs. Wade
and Collamer will probably unite in a third report.
It is clearly understood that in the event of a per

proposition will be made to unite it with the Kansas
measure, that the success of ono may depend upon
the passage of the other. Such is the present pro
grit
The Democratic caucus was hold in the hall of the
House of Representatives last night. John C ,ch
rano, of New York, acted as Chairman, and Mr. Rea
gan as Secretary. Owing to the snow storm there
was a small attendance, but all sections of the CJIIII
try were represented, and a good feeling generally
prevailed. It was a gathering preliminary too more
perfect organization with the view of shaping the
business of legislation, and acting undorstaudiogly
in future. A committee of five was directed to be
appointed by the chairman to consult and advise as
to the propriety-of calling meetings whenever occa
sion may require a definite plan of action on unim
portant public measures. The debate incidentally
involved the Kansas question, but the general senti
ment expressed was that the peace and harmony of
the Union and States depend upon the preservation
of the nationality of the Democratic, party.
The Senate caucus has also agreed on a plan of ac ,
lion relative to business.
The House Select Committee on Kansas affairs will

in a cordial co-operation with each other, umber a

the broad principles of the Cincinnati resolves, which
renders it impossible that the peace of the counts)

whose names are at present untisCertained, left Car
am Valley for Salt Lake City, an 4 it is understood
that they travelled to Utah iu company with Mor
mons wile quitted Carson Valley: to return to Salt
Lake by order of Brigham Young. News has bean
received now that these gentlemen were murdered at
a point about one hundred miles S , uth of Salt Lake
by Indians, and it is suspected that the Saints had
some hood in the massacre.
Numerous volunteer companies aro being organi
cod over the wholo country to await the call of the
President to march against the Mormons in Utah.
Dates from Oregon Territory are to January 2d.—
The news was bare of interest. The Snako Indians,
it is reported, have joined the Mormons against the
United States. The Clichitates are counciling as to
what they best do in the Mormon War. The Saints
have emissaries among all the Indian Tribes to in
veigle thorn over upon their side.
Arrival of the Empire GUI
NEW ORLE kNEI, February 13.—Thu Empire City
arrived at a tambour last night. She brings Havana
dates to the 9th. The Wabash was in port, and was
to leave thesame evening for New York. Commo
dore. Paulding received a handsome entertainment
from the authorities. Sugar was firm.
The advices from California are very unimportant.
The Legislature was in session, but was transacting
no business of importance. The markets were dull.
There was a rumor in Oregon Territory that the
Snake Indians intended joining the Mormons.
The advices from Peru bring au account of the
arrest of M. Lomer, on the charge of conspiring to
bring American arms into Porn for the purpose of
lighting for ex President Exchinique. The letters
between Lomer, Commodore Vanderbilt and Colonel
Fitzgerald, of New Orleans, have been 'published.
It is thought Lomor will be shot. The affairs between
. Vivanco and the Government were about the same as
at last advices.
A destructive fire occurred at Valparaiso. The
loss is estimated at $1,000,000.
The American sloop Antoinette was found deserted
in latjtude 36° south, by the clipper ship Flying-
Fish, of Now York, which had arrived in San Fran
cisco.
Arrival of the Mail from Santa Fe
ST. Louis, February 13.—The Santa b'e mail has
arrived with dates to the 16th ult. Business was
brick and the country healthy.
Too Legislature adjourned on the Bth of January.
A gold mine was discovered in the vicinity of Fort
Fillmore.
No palpable demonstration of hostility has been
made on the part of the Utah Indians, but the Mor
mons, evidently, have been tampering with them.
The Indian agents have been instructed to act with
caution and liberality towards them, and use their
utmost endeavors to prevent an alliance with the
MOTMOIIB. The Santa Fe Gazette advocates the
raising of a regiment of mounted riflemen in that
territory for the Utah war, stating that the march
can be made from that point in ,fifteen days. It also
recommends the reinforcements to be sent through
New Mexico, describing the march as being a much
easier ono than the Northern ono, with abundance of
provisions and forage, and traveled much quicker
than via Fort Laramie.

DR. SANFORD'S INVIGORATOR,
Is REQUIRED TO CURE ANY ONE
troubled with Liver Complaints, unless the moat doe.
perate of cases, when the second bottle will, with seam a
single failure, restore the patient to health and vigor. Vie
wish to call the attention of all to these fasts, that the In.
vigorator in compounded by a ph% Eldon who 1136 used it in
his practice for the past twenty years with a 1111001266 &bums
credulous, end that It is entirely vegetable, being compelled
wholly of gums.
Some idea of the strength of these gums may be formed
whoa it is known ono bottle of the Invigorator contalutas
much streng4 us one hundred doses of Calomel without any
of its deleterious effects.
We know there is nothing now boforo the Amerioan pub
lic, prepared with snob skill by a ecientifloman, particularly
for diseases of the Liver, as Dr. Sanford's Invigorator, or
Liver Remedy. It has attained a reputation second to no
other article in the world, simply because it rest on its own
merit. To convince all by trial that it is all its proprietors
claim it to be, if any of our readers are suffering from such
diseases as are described in hr. Sanford's advertisement, we
know of know remedy that will so surely cure them as the
Invigorator.
The Invigorator cures Sick headache. Take one or two
teaspoonfuls at each attack and it will soon disappear. For
an overloaded 'stomach, or when food rises or some, take the
Invigorator after eating, and It will not prove disagreeable
or oppressive. For heartburn, Palpitation, or llifficuit
Breathing, takes tea- poonfol once or twice daily. For Loan
of Appetite, Languor or Listlesduess, the medicine's invalu
able. It will restore the appetite and make the food digtat
well. Nightmare, take a teaspoonful on retiring, and the
demons of dream-land will all be fairies. After eating a
hearty dinner, take a dose of Invigorator and it will relieve
all oppression or fullness. 11.1 Invigorator is a Liver Reme•
dy of unequaled virtue, acting directly on that organ, cut
lag Dyspepsia, Janniloe, Billions Attacks, Dysentery, Piles,
Worms, and all Female Obstructions, for which it haa no
equal.
We know there is nothing now before the American pub
lic prepared with such skill by a scientific man, particular
ly for diseases of the Liver, as 1. r. S,nford's Invigorator, or
Liver Remedy. It has attained is reputation second to CIO
other article iu the word, simply because it rests on its own
merit. To convince all by trial that it is all its proprietors
claim it to be, if any of our readers are suffering from such
diseases as are described In Dr. Sanford's advertisement, We
know of no remedy that will so surely care them as the
Invigorator.
There has lately been brought to our notice a medicine
that, seems to ishlaeSS Wendertul, curative and healing pit.-
;wales in diseases of the Liver, Stomach and Digestive Or
gaus. It camo to us with so many testimonials in its favor
that we have noted its effects in sumo of the worst cases 'at
continual dibility, caused by deranged liver, and in every
instance the effect was to relieve or give a permanent CUM,
Dr. Sanford's invigorator, or Liver Remedy is what we re-
for to. We always have been credulous about cures by pat
ent medicines, but we are convinced that this medicine, for
family use, is not overrated by the host of recommendations
it has. Our advice is, for all troubled with Indigestion, Do- bility or Bowel Complaint, to get a bottle and try it; our
word for it, relief will be experienced.
Dirssmos To Tux INVALID: Who WO Dr. Sanford'e Invigor
ator, for it will relieve them of their pains as soon as it. is
taken into their stomach. Pain and misery cannot exist
whore the Invigorator to used, for it will as surely drive them
away, as daylight will banish darkness, of this there can
no denbt to th *le whe try it, for It carries conviction with
every dose taken. Another evidence is the thousands of
certificates from those who use it or have been cured by it,
Try one bottle, li it does not benefit, then we are mistaken.
