days since, with view TO learn trade.-Sh-

man, who is employed as a clerk ina store in
Pearl street who made professions Of attach
ment to her and requested tina, she would accom-
pany him to see his aunt, who was anxious 10
see her The unsuspccting girl was allured
by his honeycd words 10 a house in Green
street, on Tuesday afternoon, where she was
introduced by the villain to a woman whom he
represented as his aunt, and who pretended a
great regard for her. She was induced, with
out having knowledge ofits effects TO inhale
chloroiorIn, which soon rendered her insensi-
bic. She was then removed To a chamber,
where her person was brutaiy violated. When
she recovered from her stupor and found the
treatment she had received from the hands OF
him who, in an msuspecting moment, she had
Ieposed the utmost confidence, so great was the
effect upon her mind. that she is now hopeless
maniac. The facts were made known, and All

STEAMBOAT COLLISION. In the United States
District Court, ,at New York last week ,on action
for the collision between the steamboats, Wor-
cester and Governor, at Sanda Point, on the
effort of the latter to pass the former, it was
held that the Worcester, as the leading vessel,
was entitled to hold her course and track, and
was not obliged to give way, in order to leave
free passage TO the other; that the prepon-
derence of evidence is that she did not vary
from her track, and crowd upon the Governor,
and that the approach to the latter and crossing
her bows, was effected by holding by her COM
pass the course she had taken at the time.
Held ii was the duty of the boat astern TO take
precaution in time, when it was found the two
were approximating, and to slacken and stop
her speed, OF 90 in another direction, so as not
TO come within sixty feet of the other

THE COURSE OF TIME.
A SPANISH POEM

H. r-... A SPANISH POEM.
o. let the soul its slumber break,
Arouse its senses and awake,
To see how soon
Life, with its glories, glide away,
And the stern footsteps Of decay
.nrr Come stealing on.
How pleasure, like the passing wind,
Blows by, and leaves us nought behind
But grief at last
How still our present happiness
Seems TO our wayward fancy, less
Than what is past.
And while we eve the rolling tide,
Down which our flying minutes glido
Away so fast.
Let US the present hour employ,
And deem each dream of future JOY
Already past.
Let no vain hope deceive the mind
No happier let us hope to find
Tomorrow than to-day.
Our golden dreams of yore were bright;
Like them the present shall delight
Like them decay.
That INTO one engulphing sea
Are doomed TO fall;
The Sea Of Death, whose waves roll on
Ger king and kingdom, crown and throne,
And swallow all.
Alike the rivers lordly tide,
Alike the humble ry lets glide
To that sad wave
Death levels property and pride,
And rich and poor sleep side by side
Within the grave.
Our birth is but starting place,
Life is the running Of the race,
And death the goal
There all our steps at lust are brought;
That path, Of all unsought,
ls found OF all.
Long ere the damps Of earth can blight,
The cheek pure glow of red and white
Hath passed away;
Youth smiled, and all was heavenly fair:
Age cane, and laid his finger there,
And where are they
Where are the strength that Knocked decay
The step that rose so light and gay,
The heart blithe tone
The strength is gone, the step is slow,
Ana JOY grows WEAKNESS and wo
When age comes on.
Say, then, how poor and little worth
Are all those glittering toys Of earth
That lure US here
Dreams Of sleep that death must break
Alas before it bids us wake,
Ie disappear.

ANOTHER ATRocIoUs MURDER AT PLEASANT
IVALLeY.-Our citizens have not had sufficient
time to recover from the shock given by the
bold and daring murder of Mrs. Russell, before
intelligence comes Of another murder equally
airocious and revolving, in the same town.
The facts in relation to this second murder, as
far as we can gather them are as follows;
On Tuesday, the 18th inst, a colored man
by the name of John Yates, residing in the
western part of the town of Pleasant Valley,
and his wife, took their child, nineteen months
old, and placed il upon a hat store and there
turned ii 10 death They then beat its head
until they broke its skull, and buried it,
When the murder was first discovered the
woman charged it upon her husband, and he
was apprehended and lodged in Jail. Since
that time she has said that she dropped the
child accidentally on the stove and Yates held
j. there until it was dead. But we learn that
Notwithstanding her stories on the subject,
which 30 to show that she was present and
therefore without doubt a partcipator in the
gnlt, she has not been apprehended.
This murder. one of the most inhuman that
c1n b, imagined, and the very thought
fills the mind with horror, has followed so
quick upon the other, that il may well cause
general excitement, if not alarm. As an ycuse
for the act it is alledged by the fiend who did
the deed, that the child had the rckets.
1t is to be hoped that the guilty, in each of
these, the blackest cases that have ever stained
the annals of our country, may meet with the
speedy and deserved punishment due their
crimes.-Poughkepsie Journal, Saturday.

TorAL Loss or A STEAM FRiGATE.-News
was received at Southampton Jan. 6, and
IN nediately transmitted 10 London by the Elect
rc Telegraph, of the loss of the Government
steam fligate Avenger, on the Sorelle rocks, on
the north coast Of Africa. She had on board
270 persons, al of whom, II is supposed were
drowned, with the exception OF third Lieut..
Rookie, and three other persons. She was a
first class steamer of lil0 tons and $50 horse
power. She was commanded by Capt. Napier,
son Of Admiral Napier, who perished in her,
and among the lost is Lieut.. Maryatt, son Of
Capt Maryatt.
The Avenger left Gibraltar on the 18th of
Dec. and was last seen on the morning Of the
Goth, from the masthead Of the Pacha, on her
outward passage TO Malta. Returning home
on the 25th, the Pacha was signased by the
French war steamer l.ayolsier, and Capt. Olive,
the commander, was informed that the Aycnger
had been wrecked on the evening of the Goth.
The two steamers repaired in company to the
scene ofthe disaster but found only some small
portions of wreck floating about. 1t appears
from a statement in the Malta Times, that
when the Avenger struck, two boats were
lowered, one containing Lieut.. Rookie, the
surgeon, the second master and five seamen
but they were AT once carried away from the
ship; which they saw thrown upon her beam
ends, the sea making clean breach over her.
The boat reached the coast of Africa at Bier
Ia, but was swamped in the attempt TO land ;
only five persons, including Lieut.. Rookie,
gaining the shore. Bv the aid of some friendly
Arabs, they were enabled to reach Tunis and
tn, French authorities lost no time in sending
OH the Llvoisier, ch will pass to the north

CmoosIxG A MINIsTEn.-The people in one
Of the out parishes in Virginia, wrote to Dr.
Rice, who was then at the head of the Theolo-
gical Seminary in Prince Edward, for minis
ter. They said they wanted man of first
rate talents, for they had run down considera-
bly,, and needed building up. They wanted
one who could write well, for some of the
younger people were very nice about that
mltter. They wanted one who could visit
good deal, for their former one had neglected
that, and they wanted TO bring ii up. They
wanted a man of very gcntlemanly department,
for some thought great deal of that. And
so they went on describing perfect minister.
The last thing they mentioned was, they gave
heir minister three hundred and fifty dollars (;
,ut if the Doctor would send them such a
nan as they described, they would raise a
ioiher fifty dollars making it four hundred
lollars The Doctor set down and wrote a
reply, telling them they had better forthwith
make out a call for old Or. Dwight, i'll heaven /;
or he did not know ofany one in this world
who would answer this description. And as
Or. Dwight had been living SO long on spiritual
o.d he might not need 50 much for the body,
nj could possibly live on four hundred dollars.
