clVunV Out' or two New England papers arc ar
guing the quettion. Who killed Magee? a
murJcrer who was hanged in Boston a few
writs ago, but whose body exhibited evidence
of life and vitality at the subsequent dissec
tion. A report of tho jmzt mortem examina
tion, published in the Medical an I Surgical
Journal, suggests the ilea that Mageo was
not killed by the hangman', rope, but by the
scalpel of the surgical operator ; that enough
lift remained after the hanging f r proper
appliances to have fanned itself iuto na active
flituio. The report says :
The body was lowered at minutea r-.t
10. at which time uncareful examination of
the chest revealed no perceptible sound cr
impulse of the heart. A small space uniicr
the left ear bcemed to have 'eseapi'd active
compression, so that some circulation might
lave been continued through the carotid and
jugular of that fide
"At a few minutes past 11, Dr. Ellis
commenced the autopsy at the House of Be-
ccntion. The body was pale and the s.m
mottled. A small ecchymosis was noticed
just below the line of the cord oa the right
ilJp The riirht sterno-cleiuo muscle was
nrturcd through one-half of its thickne ss.
-Vo leion was discovered in any of the othe
toft parts of the neck.
" At 11.30 a kliffht tut regular pulsatory
rnovemeut was observed in the right subcla
vian vein. Upon applying the ear to tie
chest, this waa ascertained to proceed from
the Itrurt itself, which nave a distinct and
regular single beat, with a slight impulse, 80
times a minute. The cheat itaa then opened
and the heart c7oseJ, without in any way
arrestinc tho pulsatory movements. The right
auricle icas in full and regular motion, con
tracting and dilating with Leautitul dmtinc
tion and c:ierr. At i'4 o clock, tlie spina
cord having been previously divided, the num
ber of contractions was -10 per minute, Lav
in cr continued with only a thort intermission
regularly up to this time.
" The peculiar movements of the anterior
wall of the right auiiclo giadually but occa
sionally recurred, either tpoutancously, or ex
cited by a passing current of air, until 1J
o'clock. TL&y could at any moment be ex
cited by the point of the scalpel.
"At 1.45 the movements still continued
without sfimulus. Fivo were uoticed ia a
minute, with corresponding intervals. At
2.45 all aatomatio movements ceased, but the
part Etill responded to the stimulus of the
knife. At 3. 10 deep irritation of the same
kind was followed by slight movements. The
irritibility was most marked at the lower part,
where the venaj eavee enter the auricle Ai

heart, it was found to be perfectly normal.
The left ventricle was contracted the right not.

"Br. Ainsworth remarked, that all the

Shocking Fatality.
Three Paupers Poisoned.
A dreadful case of aecidpnfal ;c-,r.r.
resulting in the death of three pauper3, in
mates of the City Poor House, (Pittsburg
occurred on Monday forenooa. About foiir
yoars ago, Dr. Williams, thea emrjloved in
the institution, mixed ud a tinisnn f- h
destruction of vermin unon th nxrutn. f
paupers previous to admitting them to the
room. I he poisoa consisted of Coculus Indi-
cms, addeu to tea frail
was plaoed ia a keg, and always kept locked
up in the Etore roam, Comparativelv lnr
quantities of this mixtuie were used, and tho
supply was almost exhausted. On Monday,
the females in tho institution were engaged
in clcaaing the store room, and they removed
the keg from its accustomed place. About
eleven o clock, a man named Patrick Mullin,
who had been sent to tho poor house oa the
15th of July, approached tho keg, and re
marked that he smelt whiskey. He was a
hard drinker and very much diseased in con
sequeuce of intemperance. Although none
of those then present knew what the keg con
tained, still be was told by some one that
there was no whiskey there. He replied that
they could not fool him, he was goir.g tohavo
a drink. lie took the keg and poured from
the bung hole iuto the palm of his hand, a
portion of the mixture. Several of the poi
sonous berries fell into his hand, and ha put
all together into his mouth, saying that it was
cherry bounce. (The berries are about the
size of wild cherries.) When he had swal
lowed the fatil dose, he urged others to par
take.
A ladle was then procured, and two old
men, named Bobert Cuthbert and Oweu O'
Brien, aged respectively, between sixty and
seventy years, both took what might be called
"pretty stiff horns." Martin Welsh next
took a mouthful, but as soon as he got a taste
of the stuff, he spirted it from his mouth, and
declared they could not fool him. But a
short timo elapsed, whea the truth became
knowa, and the three men who had partakca
of the poisoa began Fuffer from its effects.
Dr. Smyser, who resides upoa tho adjoiaing
farm, was immediately summoued, but his
services were of no avail the whole three
died ia convulsions iu less thau aa hour.
Coroner Alexander was summoned, and ia
company with George Fortune, LVq ., pro
ceeded to the a!m3 house. The sceoc which
there preseated itself was truly horrible. A
jury was summoned, and after examining five
or six witnesses, the inquest decided that the
parties had died from the effects of poison,
taken by accident. A fearful commentary
upon the thirst for intoxicating diink!

Tho Crops
In any year, the fulject ef tho growing
crops, curing tue summer months, is, to a
greater or le3 extent, an obsorbiug one, be
cause of its general importance upon the
general iuteret-ts of the wholo country. The
prese-nt season is one ot tuose in wnica the
crops have attracted an unusual amount of
public attention, because of tho unusual and
ate spring, and the immense ciuantity of rain
which fell, and the consequent disastrous
floods which brought ruin and desolation upon
t lie crops aud crop prospects, in a vast por
tion of the rich bottom lands of the Western
States,
The reason hns now reached that point
when a pretty correct estimate may be formed
of the present and prospective fate of the
crops of 1 8'jS. The weather, &mce about
the lt of Juno, has been ail that could have
ccu desired, for the growth and maturing of
the productions of the earth a warm tem-
pcruture and abundance of refreshing show
ers, and this is the general character of tha
weather at the date of our present issue. We
have advices from all sections of the West
ern country, and which we deem reliable, and
upon those advices we have arrived at the
following conclusions:
Wheat is generally harvested; in thi3 State,
Kentucky and Indiana, the result is a fair
average, in some localities it has been injured
by rust and generally the growth has been too
rapid, producing a gieat abundance of straw,
and consequently a shorter head than usual,
so that the yield will not be so good; though
owing to the greater breadth of laud sown,
the 2 uantity will be nearly up to that of last
year, and the quality far superior, owiug to
the favorable weather there has been for se
curing it, as compare! with last year, when
a large quantity was seriously injured by the
uuushil hot weather which prevailed during
the month of July and the greater part of
August.
In JNorthetn llhuois, and all Iowa, where ;
spring Wheat is generally sown, and which
matures later thau that sown iu the fall, the
injury from rust has been general and serious,
so much so tnat the yield will not be over half
what it wa. la.it year, and the quatity far in
ferior. The Oat crop is a bad failure throughout
the entire West, with but little exception. It
looked well until it was headed out, end
then was struck with rust, and soon wilted
down the Eteui, breaking about tho centre, tho
heads dropped over upon each other, giving
the oat fields a peculiar appearance. In some
sections the crop has ecaped this blight, and
is unusually good.
Barley is a good crop, and sccurod in ex
cellent order Corn; the great staple crop of
the Western country, in all lands where it
was planted beforo the middle of June and
has been properly attended, is growing-with
a rapidity bordering on tho miraculous; tho
color is a deep green, and ihe promise good,
but owing to the lato wet spring and overflow
of bottom lands, a large quantity of land in
tended for this crop is now lying idle, aad in
many places where it bad been planted, the
soil being too wet to be ploughed, subse
quently, it has beon abandoned, aad will not
come to maturity, consequently.
With an ordinary mild and late fall, and
good weather during August and September,
there will be about two-thirds of the last
year's crop of this article gathered in this
State. Indiana and Illinoid. aad in Kentucky
about three-fourth's of last year's crop; but if
thii amount is secured m g00(1 order it wui
far exceed the whole amount of sound corn
irathered last vear in these States, owing to
to the general damage done last year's crops
bv an earlv and severe frost, and the unusu
ally wet, damp weather during the season.
Tho crop of Hay is immense, and the pas
turago is ciccllont throughout the West..
A Medical Mckdek. A physician inBos
tou, gave a prescription for aa apathecary to
prepare for a sik child. The prescription
was. so illegibly written, that that the apoth
ecary had to guess at the words, and so put
up a dose that killed the child It is bad
enough to steal people's time by compelliag
ii . i .I, ., . . . . .
mem io reau uiegioie manuscript upoa ordi
nary busiuess, but whea life haags upoa a cor
rect iaterpretation of the writing, a physician
who write3 illegibly is morally guilty of a
murder, whea accideat results from his care
lessness. An apothecary should never tako
the responsibility of supposing he has correctly
decyphered bad writing. He should invari
ably send tho prescription back to be written
plainly and intelligibly. This would Bhow
patients what a careless physician they have,
and that they are more likely to be killed than
cured by his prescriptions. A dismissal in
such cases would soon induce the required
carefulness.
The Telegraph Vessels. We learn from
private letters written by individuals on
board the Telegraph fleet, that the strain upoa
both
the JSiagara and the Agamemnon was
so great, -that it is doubtful whether they
will ever ngaiu be put ia good coaditioa.
The leakage in the Niagara was so rapid,
that tho rooms oa the orlop deck were flooded.
The same letters state that, invariably, the
strain straightened out the outer twist about
the cable, leaving the central copper wire to
bear tho waole

An Exciting Scene. At Grand Bapids

and covered with curbing and gravel two
men, named Buoh and Biehmand, thirty feet

thirty Lours, and yet were got out safely

a thousaud people congregated about tho
spot, and tent an a loud shout when the men
weie rescued.

The Wonders of the Age. Tho steam
engine and tho electric telegraph have ceased
to be the wonders of tho age. Young Amer
ica is vigorously pushing ahead in every de
partment of science and art for the ameliora
tion of mankind from the toils and cares in
cident to life. Sewing by machinery is the
most recent successful invention, as well as
the most important one to enslaved woman
hood. It enables her to escape tho drudgery
of hand sewing, aad gives her ample time to
cultivate her own mind aud those of her chil
dren. But of all the machines that have ever
been invented, commend us to those of Gno
VEa & Bakeu's, which aro tho best in the
market for family nso.

of its power. It has done all that you assured
me it would do ; and others of my family and
friends, having witnessed its effects, are now
using and recommending its use to others as en
titled to tho highest consideration you claim for
it.
Again, very respectfully and truly yours.

I have used Prof. O. J. Wood's Hair Restora
tive, and have admired its wonderful effects.
My hair was becoming, as I thought, premature
ly gray, but by the uso of his restorative it has
resumed its original color, and, I have no doubt,
permanently so.
