Horrid and AtrocUna .Warder.
The Utict (N. Y.) Gazette haa the following
particulars of an atrocioua murder, committed
near that place :
Mr. Van Ness' residence waa about three and
a half miles from Auburn, on the west ehore of
the Owasco lake. Ilia lamily consisted of him
self, wile,inother-in-law,(Mrs. VyckofT,)a hired
man, (Mr. Chrnelius Van Ansdale,) a hired
girl, and three children, two of whom escaped
the murderer. About half past 10 o'clock, on
Thursday night, Mr. Van Ness and his wife
were sitting in their parlor, (the rest of their
family having retired.) a knock wa9 heard at
the door, and aa Mr. Van Ness opened it, a man
supposed to be a white man with his face Mark
ed, rushed in to the room and struck Mr. Van
Nese a blow with a knite which proved nearly
instantly fatal, for he staggered into the next
apartment in search of his (run, aa it is supposed
and fell dead upon the floor! Meanwhile the
ruffian stubbed Mrs. Van Ness, who rose shriek
ing from her chair, and ran bleeding through
the next room, where alcpt her two children
and a hired girl, and expired nn the bed in the
further apartment. The girl and children owed
their Uvea only to the horrified silence they
preserved. The murderer having despatched
Mrs. Van Ness, proceeded to the apartment
where slept her mnther-in law, Mrs. WyckofT,
togetlier with an infant child scarcely two years
nltl. Not only did this demon in human form
stab the lady, but, horrible to relate he mangled
the poor little innocent child in the most shock
ing manner. , .
This done, he started to go up stairs, and waa
rmH on the Warrcase by a hired man, Van Ans
dale by name, who, alarmed at the screams,
was coming down carrying a large iron candle
stick in his hand. . The murderer demanded,
"Is there any one rise here!" to which Mr.
Van A. had hardly time to reply, "no one but
me," before he waa stabbed also in the aide. Out
with heroic -courage, Van A. seized the ruffian
by the throat, nd knocked him down ataira
with the -candle-stick, then seizing a broom
handle, all bleeding 8 he was, he attacked in
his turn the assailant with such courage that
the latter fled out into the garden, while Van
K.', feeble from h-a wound, 3sy helpless in the
:hair. The girl who was with the children, so
niraculoualy preserved, says that she saw the
villain return twice to the htuee and iuok in
.lie window, as it .uncertain whether or not to
eturn and finish hia work; hut finally calling
Mit, "If anybody is alive there recollect that
I've got a gun," he went to the stable, and ta
king tiorae gs I topped furiously on toward
ubnrn. Meanwhile, Mrs. WyckofT, although
be had received a wonnd three rnthea m
ength, from which ber intestines protruded,
onlrited to crawl nearly a quarter ot a mile
hroegh tbe woods to a neighbor's residence,
vhen succor wsa despatched. What a sight
tet their eyes on entering the house! Van
s'ews his wife and child already dead, Van
Insdale scarcely able to speak, while the poor
,irl was in a atate of frenzy, and incapable ef
endering assistance. " : ' ,
On the ataira was found the half of the blade
f the knife, supposed to have been broken in
he scuffle with Van Ansdale, about four incbea
3 length, and ulottled with b'ond. An express
rat immediately despatched to Auburn, and the
ountry waa soon alarmed. The only clue that
id been found to lead to the detection ot the
onster when I left Auburn waa the horse,
. hich fell near the negro settlement on the
itsktrts of the village, and waa there found by
e messenger. Neither Vsn Ansdale nor Mrs.
yckoft were expected tn survive. i
The motive of this most atrocious butchery
said to have been to obtain money which Mr.
. received during the week. Mrs. W. had
so a aum of money in the house. There can
acarcely a doubt but that the perpetrator
these crimes is concealed in Auburn. Ac
'e preparations were being aet on foot to d li
ver and bring him to justice.

A Joke d Its Coieqatntti.
Albany, March 13
Too Divorce Case to which 1 alluded the
tor day is a curious compound of fun, folly
romance. It, partakes very much of the
iracter of the celebrated Faoar case, whose
' bands the Legislators were vainly implor.
for so many years to loose. Tba Judiciary
mmittee have held several meetings and
en all the testimony, but as yet have come
no settled conclusion. The ante-room of the
lembly was crowded last night with members
1 spectators, all anxious to hear the; details
this comico-eerioue affair. There is some
fling discrepancy in the evidence, but the
lowing is the main facts, as they were de-
loped. . , : .
Ths parties whoso names I may now give.
.aamuch as they bsve been mads publie in the
.rfoceedings Mr. Huxanj Miss Liixic, had
only bean acquainted about 8v monins. j ns
latter, aa I told you, was yeonf lady erf 6m
personal appearases and attainments, and be
iibi ... n. , lit. j. a. i ...iMijs.sps. i
log quit proficient in music, relied mostly up-
on that divine art for a livelihood. Bhe was a
member ofthe Sooth Baptist Cburch, and offi
ciated as organist therein. The former, so far
aa I know, t young man of irreproachable char
acter, wast sort of superintendent or clerk of
the Temperance House of a Deacon in the same
church. The sleigh ride waa got up by Hall
and another young man, who took with them
three young ladies. On the way out, as might
have bsen expected from such sedate compa
ny, the conversation turned on the interesting
topic of matrimony. H. asked L. if she would
have him, and ahe consented in aa terse and di
rect a manner aa did Rebecca of old when the
servant of Isaac "popped the question." The
preliminaries were all settled and here I will
remark, all parlies agreed in testifying that it
was understood as nothing but a joke. Arrived
at the house of their destination, which waa that
of a Justice of the Peace, he was called upon
to officiate. He waa rather green in his line of
business, and aa this was the first knot he had
ever tied he went about in rather a primitive
way. Hall confessed that he had now made
up his mind to use hia own words if she
would marry him "to atick to it." The Justice
arranged the parties with all solemnity, but as
there was most immoderate laughter, he put on
a very solemn face, read them a lecture on so
briety, and sat down. He was asked to try a
gain, and this time be succeeded in stopping
the laughter and the ceremony proceeded.
"Have yon," said the Justice, addressing Hall,
"anjyibjections tn matrimony !" No sir," was
the reply. "Have you," waa the farther ques
tion to Miss L. 'sny objections to getting mar
ried 1" and she aa everv other young lady natu
rally would, replied, "Not at all, air !" She
asys ahe intended, when the Justice put the far
ther question, "Will you have thia man for your
husband T" to give a most unequivocal and un
mistakable negative. But he gave her no op
portunity, but immediately upon the above ques
tions being put and answered, he pronounced
them man and wife.
Here waa a pretty kettle offish, but the lady
still regarded the whole as a joke, not supposing
that such an overhanded knot would atick. By
dint of perseverance and considerable help, the
Justice made out the certificate, and late at
night the parties aet out tor home to meditate
over the old proverb "Those who marry ' in
haste can repent at leisure." '
In the esse of the lady, repentance came soon
enough. The rest of the testimony consists
merely of "saya IV and "says she's" of those
who volunteered their advice or condolence, and
doea not amount to much. It is evident to me
that ahe waa deceived somewhere and by some
body, although she caonpt be acquitted of blame
in trifling with such a subject and in attempting
to carry the joke m far. I wrote the other day
that ahe waa engaged to another person. This
appears now not to be the case. What the re
port ofthe Judiciary Committee will be I know
not but think it will be favorable. A bill for
her divorce will pasa the Assembly with a per
fect rush, but ot its fate in the Senate there is
doubt, as that grave body is very much afraid of
precedents. From the peculiar circumstances
of thia case and the intense interest manifested
in it, especially by some ofthe younger mem
bers of the Legislature, I do not know but it
may be called the great measure of thia sea-
