by these daring assassins The husband
of Mrs. Gregory who was in an adjoining
field, being alsrnedb by the shrieks which
proceeded from this scene of carnage, ana
experimenting that the horse on winch ms
wife Il Mrs. Crump rode had run away,
repaired to the spot where he discovered
the mangled corpse of his wife, in whose
arms the murderers had enclosed her IN
FAINT child unhurt, and the BODY OF Mrs
Crump who still breathed, Whilst tax
ing the necessary steps for the removal OF
their bodies, his house was set on fire by
the villains, Or their accomplices, and
burnt to the ground, the greatest part OF
its contents being fortunately saved.
One of the men who had assisted in the
murder, came up during the burning OF
the house, and pretended to assist with
much zeal to extDguish the flames. We
are ignorant what circumstances created
suspicion. but this murderer and lncen-
diary was apprehended on the spot, and
is now safely lodged in the jail OF this
county, where we understand he has
made confession of the above facts. His
comraGe we believe mas as yet, eluded
search. We regret to state that Mrs
Crump after lingering several days, has
as we understand diedof her wounds.
The negroes belongt to Co'onel Richard
.Joues Of this County. The motives OF
their conduct. are matters of conf eclure.
They certainly had no personal views in
committing this fragrant outrage Moth
ing has transpired toprove that any thing
like an attempt, was made upon the viz
tue Of the unfortunate ladies.-That they
we're only the instruments Of another's
vengeance, seems perfectly clear from
this circumstance, and from others which
we have heard.-We shall not attempt
however, to forestall public opinion, or to
anticipate that discovery of he author or
authors of this foul transaction, which we
doubt not, the progress of time, an. a
strict Investigation will fully reveal.

SPORTS In INDIA.

WadrdS, Jan. 10.
By letters from the Governor Generals
camp down to the 5th inst. we are made
acquainted with the events of the excur-
sion to that date, but the interesting par
ticulars that they contain are rather scan
ty. The following are extracts
Scamp near Maharajpoor, Dec. II.
owe have not had much sport consid-
ering the number OF times we have been
out, but the number of elephants with us,
and the noise occasioned by SO large an
assemblage, are rather calculated to scare
the game at our approach During the
first lew times that we were shooting, the
sport was inconsi erable. At Oudenulla,
where there is plenty of game, we were
more successful, and one morning we di-
vided into two parties taking different
directions, and enjoying very good
sport. Her ladyship always goes out on
the shooting parties, SO that we cannot
stay out very long.
We came this morning from Seerkun-
da, about six or eight miles, and, having
heard from the shirkarees that there were
Rhinoceros on the way, we penetrated
through very thick jungles all along, in
tending to fire at nothing but these ami
mails. Bufaloes and Tigers, Deer, Hogs,
Patridges, &c. were started every now g.
then, but the objects of our search were
not for long time to be discovered until
at length some of the party saw three
or four of the Rhinoceros, and Capt.
Brook, OF the Commissarat Department,
was fortunate in shooting one dead.
The bullet, Ia small leaden one,) struck
the brute in the neck, opposite the spine,
and he fell instantly. Lord Hasting was
at the other side of the jungle, and did not
get sight of any of them, till this one
was shot Some others of the party had
shots at him, but their bullets only made
small indentations in his side, so that it is
a fact that leaden bullets will not pene-
trate there. | don't think indeed that
brass ones would either, the hide is so
enormously thick and tough The animal
was dragged into company by three large
elephants, and that was hardly sufficient.
Here we are pitched certainly in very
romantic place, between two hills, sur
rounded on all sides with thick jungles,
and the tigers have fair mark, as dare
say there are plenty of them in the neigh
bourhood. Some of the jungles, most of
them should rather say, are quite i'm.
penetrable, even for elephants. This place
is about twelve miles above Ramjnahry,

PUBLIC EDUCATION.

We are indebted to "A Phladelphian,'
for his outline of The Lombard street school
We hope thst he will do more at future
time. We would state one TACT, which at
any time would be entitled TO consideration.
but which, at this time is particularly de.
serving public attention. There are now a
much greater number OF children, educa-
ted at much less expence, than before the
present plan was adopted. The children
under the old system, on an average cost
m ore than eight dollars year; now they
do not average more than three dollars -
The fact IS not more Certain than that they
are now brought up with better habits and
much better educated than they were
Ia publication like this, we do not choose
to mention gentlemen's names; but we will
hazard, the wounding OF individual feeling, TO
crafty our own, in, calling public attention
10 the distinguished merits OF some Ut the
Controllers. Those who sacrifice largely
10 the public good, are at least entitled to
the public gratitude.

have now been al ibis place about ten
days, very impatient to return to Pensaco-
la. Not word has yet been heard Of the
Hornet. General Jackson talks of dispatch
ing vessel to Havana TO learn what has
become Other. There is certainly some.
thing wrong. We have given up all hope
OF hearing from her before the last Of the
month. This unfortunate circumstance will
derange all the preparations that have been
made, and there is now very little proba-
bility OF getting possession before the mid
die of July.
The cantonment is delightfully."- situated.
Great taste has been displayed in the plan
aud construction of the quarters. The men
are all in fine order, about FIVE hundred in
number, and in good health They will
leave very comfortable quarters, fine gar
dens, &c. but am told these will he occu-

ten Or twenty miles around, for the sake Of
having school during the sumner. This
IS certainly beautiful country; IL Is lar from
being barren. The sub-soil is red clay,
and very little manure sufices. The long
lealed pine is not the invsriable indication
of steriity, like the pine Of our mountain
regions. The water is very good. In fact,
this is the best poor man country in Anne
lica.
The Alabama has been unusually high
for this season OF the year, in consequence
