JE FFEHJ50NIAN REPUBLICAN. Diez the Murderer. It has not been for gotten that 'about a month ago, by our readers, -vve reported a case of murder committed by one Ferdinando Diez. The horrible circum stance was yesterday more fully brought to Ijaht. The body of the unfortunate woman has been dicovercd, and the evidence against the miserable murderer is established beyond question. In a small back building in Magazine near Bartholomew street the body of a female, has been discovered mutilated in a most shocking manner. It was in this house that Diez was arrested, and that the heartless wretch after murdering his wife tn Barrack street cut the body to pieces, hirediiis house in Magazine street, and in the night carried the corpse to his new residence, where he buried it be neath the floor. The body when discovered presented a most shocking spectacle. The legs had been cut off at the hips, and but little mortification had taken place. It may have been that the water in which the body lay, may have prevented the natural course of de composition, for it was not buried bnt careless ly concealed beneath the floor, and the offen sive smell which arose and offended the neigh borhood led to the discovery. Diez is still in prison confined for examination. New 'Or leans Picayune of 5th. of March. A House asd six Children burnt. The New York Gazette says : On Saturday about one o'clock, the house of Mr. John Astin, in the town of Yonkers, in Westchester county about one mile from the village of that name was burned down and six of his children perished in it by the flames, jl.fr. Astin with his wife with an infant, and some of the older children three daughters and a son, who lodged on the lower floor, escaped the children lodged on the upper floor. The fire appears to have originated by accident after the family had all retired. Five of those who per ished were between the ages of five and twelve 3'ears, and one was a young man grown, who, it would seem lost his life in attempting to res cue the children in the chamber. The four that escaped, besides the parents with the in fant were also children- the family consisting of fourteen children in all, three of whom were not residing at home. We hare these particu lars from a gentleman residing io this citv who during yesterday received his informalfon di rect from Yonkers. It is one of the moct pain ful occurrences which for a longtime has fall en to our lot to record. TREASURER'S SALE.

Sinco the t ubliraiion of the number for Novem ber, the demand for the Ladies' Companion has been unprecedented and beyond the most sanguine anticipations. At the commencement of the vol ume an additional number of copies were printed, which was considered at the time adequate to s n- tisfy all the orders which might be-received, and eave a considerable number on iiand lor subse quent calls. The publisher is more than gratified in stating that the whole of an edition of six thou sand, five hundred copies, was completely exhaus ted before the issuing of the third number of the volume; and, consequently, he vv as compelled to reprint a second edition of two thousand conies, miming me uiruuuuion oi mo jaaies companion eight thousand five hundred, at the termination of the tenth volume. In consequence of this great and unparalleled increase of new subscribers, he has oetermmed to commence the new volume for the onsuing year with thirteen thousand : honinp- that he will thus be enabled to supply all the de mands for the Ladies' Companion, as well as those disappointed in commencing with the tenth vol ume. The proprietor feels jnrateful for that en couragement which has been so lavishly bestowed upon his magazine, and at the tame time he bogs to assure the readers of the Ladies' Companion, that it is determined resolution to meet it with a corresponding liberality to merit its continuance. The work appears in beautiful new type, printed .U- A". . .1.1 1 1 J . 9 on inc unusi pupui Muuuimy presseu, ana ncany stitched in a handsome cover. The Ladies' Companion contains a largerVquan- tity of reading than any other magazinejssued in in this country, and its subscription price is only three dollars a year, while the great combination of talent secured for the coming year will render it unequalled by any other periodical. Splendid Steel Engravings, prepared by Mr. A. Dick, ornament the work one of which accoinoa- nies each number. These plates are entirely new, and are engraved at a heavy expense by one of the best arstists in America, expressly ior the maga zine. The desicris are selected with a view oi in teresting the general reader, and enhancing the value of the work, for its superior pictoral embel lishments. It is with pride the proprietor announ ces that the Ladies' Companion is the only maga zine published, in which new and elegant steel plates appear regularly. Those accompanying -other monthly periodicals, are generally first worn out in annuals. In addition to the engravings mentioned, a correct plate of the Quarterly Fash ions for Ladies, will appear in the June, Septem ber, December, and March numbers, independent of the usual embellishment. It is the determina tion of the proprietor, that these fashion plates shall appear in a style hitherto unknown. It lite rary character will undergo no change, as it will remain under the charge of the same Editors a.i heretofore. Articles Irom the pens of the mosi distinguished writers, will appear in the forthcom ing numbers, among which may be enumerated tho following: Mrs. Holland, Emma C. .Embury, Lydia 11.

Harrington, j The Musical Department of the Ladies' Compa nion has ever commanded a large share of atten tion, and has been looked upon with no little in terest by its readers, and more especially the La dies, whom the publisher is anxious to please. It will continue to be a subject of more than usual care to him, and to the Professor under whose su pervision it is placed, to make that portion of tho magazine deserving of the countenance of every lover of music. Tac Work-in General. Of ever' department an equally careful supervision will be strictl;- exer cised by the Editors, and all appropriate expendi tures will be liberally bestowed, as it is the de sign of the publisher, with the aid of his contribu tors and the advice of his friends to make the La dies Companion distinguished for the byauty and accuracy of its typography, the variety and high tone of its literary articles, the quality and value of its music, and" the unequal splendor of its pic toral embellishments, and the accuracy of its quar terly fashions. The proprietor pledges himself to use all honorable means to maintain the superiori ty which the Ladies' Companion has obtained. For five years he has steadily pursued a course of improvement, and he Hatters himself that his pre sent facilities are such as to give the work eminent advantages over ali other publications. From the foregoing it will be perceived that tho Ladies' Companion embraces every department within the range of Belles-Lettres and the-Pino Arts : and no exertions or oxpense will be deemed too great to render the work equal to any-other extant. The flattering and general testimonials of nearly every contemporary journal in the United States, and in fact, many on the other side of tho Atlantic, have strongly asserted, the undeniable claims of tho Ladies' Companion lo the support of the public'generally.
