The chSmber over the keeping-rOom is that in which the murder was committed. 1 The bed on which the victim was sacrificed, was removed as a matter of accommodation, at the time of the funeral, and the sofa, under the covering of which, the key of the cham her door had been hidden, has been removed from its former position to the place where 1 the bed had stood. The bed itself is now in an upper appartment. The stains of blood cover two circular portions, each ot six or ! eight inches in diameter. The furniture Of 1 the chambers occupied by the domestics has the appearance of being left by them in a fright, as if they had fled from the club and dagger of the assassin. nor dared to look back upon the scene of horror.
 The hand which pcrpctrated the deed of death has done execution upon it's miserable and hardened owner, and fled from the tribu pal of earthly justice. But the heart which c"ntrNed the unnatural project and promised the reward for its performance, still beats in uncertainty with regard to its earthly desti- nation.

 Movements oC the President.--We learn by a letter from Washington, published in the Uni ted States Gazette. that the President has written to his friends to say, that he IS about to return to Washington, and he is expected there in about three weeks. He states that he has been ready to meet the Indians, and hot .,h; ;ufu o,,f Aicp n he will return without aifording them that op- portunity ofascertaining his intentions regard ing them, which he was willing to afford them." The CherOkecs are clearly right, under their pl esent circumstances, and after the treatment they have received from the cabinet, in not going to meet the President.

 Lottery S,cindlers.-A gang of swindlers have recently been detected in one of the most bare faced frauds upon the community, that we have ever heard of.

 drawn privately at a tavern near the New York line, by Sanders and one other. No grant of any such lottery is in force under the authority of this State. Sanders and his companion are arrested, and are now confn- ed in Bennington county Jail. A printed statement that the drawing took place at Ar lngton on the l4th July, 1880. was made up and published in the city of New-York, with names annexed as witnesses, n0tOne of which, the inhabitants of Arlington certify, are known to them. They also certify that no such drawing took place. We trust the persons concerned in this high handed fraud will meet the punishment their management deserves.

 A Georgia militia captain at late training thus described the United States constitution. The constitution, my friends" said he, "is great wooden trough, put up in the Hall of Representatives, by the thirteen States, a. mong which Georgia, you know, was one. When put up it was quite large enough for all of us. but since then eleven new states have been admitted to drink out of it with us, and these eleven new states have such large bodies, and such prodigous mouths, that not counting the capacity of their stom- achs, they contrive to shove the weakest of the old rroprietors away from it, and take the whole of it to themselves. Fellow sol dIers, this is d grievous case. indeed. And what have we to do? Why, we must nuliity the old trough, and build new one sufficient y large for all of us."
