SOVEREIGN, THE MURDERER.-Welearl

SOVEREIGN, THE MURDERER.-Wele elearn
by gentleman from Canada, that this
wretch, an account Of whose murders we
published a few days ago, has starved
himself to death in prison. Before his
death, however, he confessed the murder
of his family. A young child making
some disturbance in the night, his wife
got up to take care of it. He told her to
come to bed and, upon her saying she
could not, jumped out Of bed, seized the
child and threw it on the fire. His wife
then ran out of the house and he after her
he soon overlook and butchered her on
the spot returning, he met son few
rods from the house, II years Of age,
whom he murdered, and before he reach
ed the house met a daughter, whom he
also killed. He then went into the house
and murdered three other children in
their beds. Having murdered his own
family, and his thirst for blood unsatisfied,
he started off, and called up one of his
neighbors and attempted to kill a father
and son, but they defended themselves
against him and he was obliged to re-
treat. Sovereign had, as we are inform
ed, several times threatened to murder
his family when drunk (; but at this time
he stated he was not drunk, and that he
had drunk nothing for three days previ-
ous.-Rochester Adrertiser.
The following account of the miserable
condition Of Spain, is taken, the Daily Ad.
vertiser, from gentleman in Madrid, 10 his
friend in the city, dated Dec. 18th, 1881:
"The country is 80 completely overrun BY
robbers, that nothing goes safe. Not a
diligence has gone from this to Seville for
some weeks past, without being stopped and
plundered by these banditti. Indeed, il was
never worse than at present. Dr.. Wilson, an
English gentleman, and his lady, left here O.
bout four weeks ago for Andslusis. The
diligence was stopped by Jese Maria, with q
band Of sixteen. He says they wore fine
looking men, mounted on handsome horses,
and armed each man with brace Of pistols,
gun, broadsword and dirk. They were very
polite, not ooiging them to get down with
their faces to the ground, as is usual, but gave
them some brandy and water to drink and
when they left, shook hands with the passen.
gers, wished them q pleasant journey, and
begged pardon for having been obliged 10
put them TO so much trouble and inconven

money, watches, &c. and all the gentlemen's
clothes that were worth taking, even their
cloaks and umbrellas and also ali the ladies

FROM THE PROVIDENCE HERALD.
THE THIRD EPISTLE OF KING
IEMJJEI,


so. And it came to pass, that in the
first year after the year of round num-
bers, that benjamin and James, snraam-
ed skeleton, and Joseph and William,
the scribe, and Charles and Jonathan,
took council together and determined TO
re-annoint Lemusl King.
81. Howbet they assembled together
a great multitude consisting Of thirty
and seven, and they did publish an edict,
that in the month of flowers, at 1rspwen,
Lemuel be re-anointed King.
50. Now it came to pass, that the men
who support the King of the United Pro-
vinces, assembled in council, which did
outnumber the council of King Lemuel ;
from twenty aud four provinces came
they, to sit in the council.
SO. And the council Of one accord
made the following decree, "Phat James
shall be anointed King in Lemuel's stead,
at IrOpwen, in the month of the opening
of the flowers that Robert, the Judge,
the same which was strangled, and Al
pheus, the same which was despatched
to make room for Henry, the friend of
those who assembled in secret, shall be
clothed with mantles and sit in the upper
council with King James.
"a. And voice was heard in the land,
like the voice of "Roaring Lion" say
ing, the end Of the government of King
Lemuel is near at hand, and the days Of
his reign are numbered.
SIS. And second voice was heard,
louder than the first, saying verify those
who devise mischief, whether Kings or
Counsellors, they shall surely have an
end.
So. Therefore the days Of the reign OF
King Lemuel are numbered-the crown
shall be severed from his head--his reign
shall be as the cedar tree-yea, like unto
the bay tree--it shall be smitten with
the blast of the north wind, and his
reign shall be a reproach unto all ma
tions.
81. And it came to pass, that Benja-
min, fearing the crown was about to fall
from the head of his kinsman, moved in
the Kings council, that it be written in
the laws of the realm, that if the men OF
Stna, together with the men who sup
port the King of the United Provinces,
shall outnumber the host Of King Lem
uel, that Lemuel shall nevertheless re-
main King Of the realm. O
SO. And it came to pass that the voice
of prophecy was heard in the land, say
ing, in the month of the opening of flow
ers and of the budding ofthe sap!in tree,
the sorufcrs OF fxiug J..s.ss and the men
of Sitna, shall shake the throne of King
Lemuel, and shall rob him of his crown.
SO. And it shall come to pass, that
they shall march up against the host OF
King Lemuel, and shall smite them with
the staff and with the spear, and they
shall be scattered asunder; and the
Counsellors Of King Lemuel shall throw
down their bows, and shall hide them
selves in dcns and in caves of the earth.

"There is something SO very myste-
rious in this matter, that we. cannot re-
frain from expressing our surprise and
astonishment in regard to 1t. Although
we are satisfied that ii is no business Of
ours, and that we have nothing to gain
or lose BY concerning ourselves either one
way or the other, still we must be per-
mitted to express our doubts, that every
thing has been conducted with the best
reg lard to his interest"
/ would inform the editor that there
is many transactions, besides the one
that has 80 astonished him, Of private
nature that are not explained to any but
the parties concerned, and one Of the
reasons for it is, that others having their
own affairs to attend to, do not trouble
themselves about those oftheir neighbors.
The editor ought to recollect that Mr..
Read, having the capacity and power to
protect himself, and his own interest !;
the suggestion that he did not do it, is
not very kind reflection upon him.
The editor is much to be CONNIE nded for
saying "f is no business Of ours'-vol-
umes could not express better idea. It
reminds us Of the moral, to the story of
Aunt Charity and the Eenchman's band
bore,. Ii was well for the editor to in
form the public, that he has done nothing
to injure Mr.. Reads prospects; tina. is
very important fact, about which the
world might never have been enlightened,
had not the editor been kind enough to
declare it, and put that question forever
TO rest. The generous sympathy ex-
pressed ~ ~ -I;s, CO..

ner and friend, and his regret for the
supposed sacrifice made by him is a sure
evidence of the goodness of the editors
heart, for although he has ceased to be
a partner in business, there has been no
severance Of kind Offices and afeetionatc
regard, which among the brightest orns-
ments ofthe human character. After all |
must be permitted to insist that the editor
would have done, even more worthily
than he has, if he had rendered his ad-
vice and assistance, and unburthened his
generous and sympathising heart in a
private interview, than by spreading it
before the public. I do not charge the
editor with any other intention than to
express his regard and good will, but the
manner in which he has chosen to do it,
may induce some who have less charity,
to think they discover in it little hypoc-
ricy. These are my private opinions
only, from which, others are at full lib
erty to appeal.
