The last steamer brought in accounts xf more
han one fearful scene in the Old World. A treat
pugilistic contest recently took place between
two pri.o fighters named Count and HenJigo. and
the details, as given in some papers, are calcula
ted to excite a thrill of horror as well as a burnt
of indignation. We hear sad stories occasional
ly of the brutality of the bull tights of Spain, and
of tin; discreditable appearance of such scenes, of
the youth, beauty and fashion of the principal ci
ties ot that country. Even the English papers
have lately teemed with the bitterest comments,
because on a recent occasion, the young queen of
Spain was present at one of these fights, and be
came excited like the rest of the spectators. They
have also denounced in becoming terms, a fright
ful massacre of deer, which recently took place

Such statements almost make one's blood cur- j
die, nt tin; terrible wretchedness and starvation,
which in "Merry England'' can reduce human be
ings to such extremities ! and yet the facts are
established by abundant and conclusive evidence.
In the htter of the Times correspondent, of Sept.
I T. there is a large body of thistetimony. John
Cole, 51 years of age, testified 'that he bad been
iu the workhouse and employed in crushing
bones. He goes on to say :
I worked at bono crushing for weeks. The
bones were of all kinds. There were horse
human bones among them without my knowing
it. I have seen the men gnaw the bits of meat
or bard gristle and rat the marrow out of the
bones. They were -very dirty being tumbled a
bout with the reft. 1 have seen some of the men
eat the tainted grittle and marrow. When 1 got
a bad bone, I pave it to some one who was not
so particular. This lasted all the time I was
there, Generally speaking, all the bones w-re
ftale. I have seen a cart come with bones.
They were not (reh. I saw the men quarrel
iriany t imes for the bones. They would hide
Ih-m away from each other. I have hidden them !
till I got an opportunity to pick them. The
stn'f was not fit for them to eat. Hunger miide

hard. On Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays
we ha I no bread at dinner time. Thev com-
plained among themselves about -want nf sulfi

picking the bones if we could help it, for fear be
would blow us up. He rniiat have known it. 1
have jobbed about the garden. 1 have picked up
raw potatoes, tin nips and carrots, and ate them.
I ate part of a raw cabbage once. 1 was told a
bout it, and the muster scolded me for it. I have
8-vii men, women and children eat raw potatoes
wh.'ti they were engaged in getting them in.

Another tii.iu nai.-l Turman, testified thus:

men were in the habit of picking the bones and

I -am from a southern paper that the apprehen

"i great as was feared, and corn has poured into
lue State fiom other sections of the country so
li eely, that it is selling at very reasonable rates
in Charleston. A committee appointed by a

We published, a few days since, a call for a
Convention, to bo h( Id on the 21st inst , iu Elk
county, in this State, relative to tho Simhury and
Erie Railroad a project which was deemed of
great importance to the State and the city, at
one time, ud means were rupplied for a full sur
vey, and general location of the road, a labor
which occupied a corps of engineers, under Mr
Miller, for two successive seasons. Whether
any thing good tan come from the proposed Con
vention, we are not able to say. We fear, how
ever, that the pltiec will be a serious objection.
Elk county is not easily accessible from the
south and east, and it may bo leared that there
will not be representat ives sufficient to give ef-
! feet and confidence to the resolutions of the meet-
ing we allude, of course, to a confidence iu the
1 success of efforts.
j Without now takin any pirt in the question
(if route, we think it due to truth and our rea b-rs.
! (old and intimate acquaintances,) to state that
the right of way, and the use of ground for the
propoed Sunbury and Erie Railroad, will be era-
j tiiitnu-ty granted, (as we understand.) for a Very
