At one spot were four children struck down, and the frantic
father was seen occasionally embracing their bodies, or mak-

similar scenes were witnessed.—Spectator.
Thirteen families have been thrown on the parish of St.
James's, Clerkenwell, for support, within the last few days,
in consequence of the male parents having deserted them.
The authorities of the parish have offered a reward of 13
guineas for the apprehension of the deserters, some of whom
were tradesmen in comfortable circumstances.

: A MURDERER'S SCRUPLES.—MonteIy, the murderer of
the messenger of the Orleans Bank, is now quite recovered
from the effects of his late attempt at starvation. He takes
his meals as usual. Last Saturday, as his breakfast, con-
sisting of eggs and a cutlet, was placed before him, he ex-
claimed, " What ! eat meat on a Saturday ! Not so bad as
that ! Give me the eggs." Montely's scruples call to mind
the conduct of the Calabrian robbers, who kill a man with
one hand, and make the sign of the cross with the other.
The trial will, it is supposed, come on next month.
EXTORTING A CONFESSION.—In Calvert county, one
night last week, a free negro man went to the house of an
elderly lady in the absence of any male member of the
family, and after violently beating her, robbed the house of
about 500 dollars in specie. He was apprehended a day or
two after, and after having been banged up by the neck four
or five times, until be was nearly dead, was induced to
confess his crime, and the whereabouts of the largest
portion of the money. He had secreted it in different
places. The lady did not recover until the next day, and was
then unable to give any definite account of the matter.—New
York paper.
THE HOLYWELL-STREET NUISANCE,—The man Patter-
son is at length driven from his lair in this street, the person
from whom he rented the shop having given up possession
to the head-landlord, a gentleman residing in Chancery-lane,
who immediately, and to the great satisfaction of the He-
brew residents, bundled out the boy who carried on the busi-
ness, papers and all. The shop therefore closed at five
o'clock on Wednesddy; and shortly after that time a friend
of Patterson's, by somt means or other, gained admission,
and threatened the man who was left in care of the premises
with violence if he did not leave at once. The man, however,
sent for a policeman, and charged the intruder with bursting
open the door, whereupon the latter left the shop, and took
to his heels; so that the public may now pass through a
convenient thoroughfare without having their eyes and
understandings shocked by the emanations of this daring
blasphemer

DARING ATTACK AT TENNYPARK.—On the morning of
Wednesday, between the hours of one and two o'clock, an
entrance was effected, by three men, into Major Keating's
house Tennypark, near this city, by removing, by means of
a crow-bar or some such instrument, the grating (which was
leaded into cut stone) over the basement story, and raisin
the window of the servants' hail. They then pros.—
the apartments of the two servant men, and, having pre
sented a pistol, demanded their fire-arms. There were none,
however, in the house. Having left one of their number on
guard, to prevent any resistance from that quarter, the re-
maining two proceeded to the room of the servant-maid, and
sent her to Mrs. Keating to announce their intention of
waiting on her, and immediately after entered her bedroom.
The lady, greatly alarmed, of course, asked them what they
wanted ? upon which they replied that they wanted her
money, and told her not to be alarmed, as she should not be
molested. She said they should have all the money in the
house, and then gave her maid the keys to give it to them,
which mounted to z£ll. The party then left the house. One
of these robbers had on a mask, another had his face
blackened, and the third was muffled in a riding-coat. Al-
though Mrs. Keating's gold watch was lying on the table,
and one of the party actually had it in his hand, yet they did
nos take it, nor anything else, though there was a large quan-
tity of plate and other valuables in the houae.—Kilkenny
Journal.

The credit of the United States is no more. It is worth
a moment's inquiry to ascertain the causes of its fall. We
need not delay the investigation by following the President's
attempt to distinguish between the credit of the Union and
the several credits of the different states of which it is com-
posed. The Union is afirm, the several states are the part-
ners in that firm, and whether we regard the causes that
have led to the general loss of credit as founded in dishonesty
or insolvency—and they must be assigned to the one or the
other—the effect must be the same.. If the bankrupt mem-
bers of the firm are merely dishonest, their dishonesty must
reflect upon the whole company, which wants either the will*
or the power to restrain its members from the commission
of gross frauds, and which may, therefore, be expected to
imitate, in its collective character, the same fraud when oc-
casion shall arise. If, on the other hand, the repudiating
states can plead insolvency, the Union must be regarded as
insolvent, unless it can be shown that some of the states are
rich enough to make good the defalcation of their partners.
We ke, however the charitable hypothesis—we believe the
repu4ating states to be really insolvent; that it is " their
poverty and not their will consents" to the cheat by which
creditors suffer. These states have borrowed more than
they are able to pay—more than they ever will be able to
pay. This casts a useful light upon the future, as well as
upon the past, of American history. If the republicans have
been borrowing more than they have any prospect of being
able to pay, they have been all this time living upon the
money and the industry of strangers. All the prosperity, all
the improvement, all " the going a-head," which they and
and others have been fond of ascribing to their demoeratical
institutions, have been fallacious at such a proof, because
they have been the fruit of a robbery—it may be, and we
are willing to believe it has been, an undesigned robbery—of
the people of countries that are not democratical. The in-
ference as to the future is gloomy enough. If, with an un-
impaired credit. with a land-fund difficult to exhaust, with
that prosperous use of both which has been the subject of
so much exultation, the republicans have not been able to
avoid bankruptcy, what may they anticipate with these re-
sources cut off, and in their bankrupt condition ? It is no
pleasant prospect to look upon, the retrogradation in civili-
zation and happiness of so many millions of our kinsmen,
but we confess that we cannot see any other prospect except
through an essential change in the constitution of the repub-
lic—a change, perhaps, extending to a dissolution of its
union.—Standard.
