 Receipt for killing scife, equally as efectice and more to He purpose han arsenic.-The following re- ceipt was taken from an old French work. It was confidentiay asserted that it never in any instance was known to fail Ithas very frequently been triedn this country, and numberless examples can prove its efficacy.
 Item l. Soon after marriage you must assume an authoritative tone for the purpose ofletting your wife see that you about commencing operations. The effect ofthis will be melancholy.
 Item g. Let this treatment settle down into com plete disregard of all her opinions taking care to thwart her in every instance where you can. Be very careful always to find fault with all her manage ment and if she does any think for the purpose of pleasing you, be sure to be dspleased. Ifyou have child, let it know that father is to be obeyed not mother

 Map of Tenncssee.-Our readers have already been informed that map of this State, of very superior character has been prepared, in manuscript, by Matthew Rhea, Esq and that measures were about to be taken for engraving it immediately. We now learn that MT Tanner, of Philadelphia, one of the competent artists in that line in our country. has undertaken the task and thst is to be comPet- ed by the list of January next. This work, executed in the manner in which it has been thus far by the original draftsman, and completed with the skill which the high character of the engraver warrants us in anticipating, must not only be gratifying and useful to the citizens of Tennessee but will tend to elevate the character of our State to stimulate nqul- ry respecting it abroad and make more generally known its peculiares and the extent ofis resources. Tennessee one ofthe most hourishing, populous and rapidly increasing States in the Union, has, till ate ly been little understood and appreciated beyond it's own limits, and even now IS, Tn many places, great ly undervalued. Such map as Mir Rhea's present. ing in bold outline its characteristic features-its mountains and its streams, its valleys and paihs-and furnishing correct idea of it's cultivation and in- pavement by laying open at one view its numerous roads radiating and crossing each other in every di7 rection and its ourshing towns and villages whoih have risen into existence with almost magical rapI-. dity-such work is likely to do vastly more in ex- tending knowledge of the relative importance and growing prosperity ofour State, than any verbal de- scrpton, however minute and glowing, could effect, -Ndshyiue Bonner.
 Murder.-One of the most horrid and diabolical murders ever perpeirated in Kentucky, was com mtted on the person of Mir James Pace. a very re- spectable citizen of Clark county, and keeper of a public house on the main road between this town and Winchester on M0n0ay nlept lasti pelWeeh obo hours of eleven and twelve. The deceased was locked in profound sleep, with his wife by his side. when the foul deed was done. From the situation of the bed and the facts which have since been dis closed, it appears that the deadly wound which put period to his earthly career, was inflicted with a dirk knife, fixed in the end of a stick about three feet long, and thrust through window, immediate ly over his bed.
 We learn that one or two persons have been ar rested, and that the affair is undergoing judi cial investigation As is usual, there athousand and one stories in circulation, all which we forbear publishing, being fearful of duplicating those who are in nowse connected with this tragcal transac- tion.- -Mountsterling paper. Some time last spring, an individual by the name of William P. Dunn, was shot in Cape Girardeau county, while riding alone near creek, and was found lying dead in the creek. A MT John Renfroe, whose sister Dunn had married, was tried for the murder and acquitted On the 9th inst. as MT Rem froe was walking, early in the morning, in the gar den or orchard of MT Abraham Wright in company with his wife and sister, and sister-in-law, he was killed dead on the spot by some unknown assassin, who shot from concealed place and made his es- | cape.
