SHOCKING EvENT.-It has become our painful
duty to record one of the most tragic events which
the annals of our State presents the death of John
A. Colclough Jr On Saturday evening last he
was called on by Mrs. Marshall, the wife of one
Richard Marshall, to make some effort to protect
her from the wrongs which had been inflicted on
her by her husband. Prompted by the generosity
of his nature, he Immediately went, accompanied
by his brother and broheF-in -aw to the house &C.
cupied by Marshall, at distance of some three or
four hundred yards from his residence. Marshall
being called, after some time came out to meet them
in the yard-learning who they were and what had
brought them to his house, he became furousy en-
ragged, which was increased by the remonstrance
and reproof which they addressed to him. Being
held by one of the gentlemen by the collar, he de-
sired him to let him get his cOat-was permitted to
enter his house for the purpose-Nnd as soon as he
entered he seized his gun and fired at Mr.. John A.
ColclOugh. The load entered his head and he fell
without word. The gun, we understand, was
loaded with duckshot and a slug of lead. This
occurred after night, but the moon was shining
brightly. Marshall was Immediately arrested and
committed to Jail, where he will remain for his
trial. OF the criminal stern justice requires us to
be silent; his case must be judged of by his coun-
try and his Creator. OF Mr. Colclough, it is no
lying epitaph to say, that he was the favorite of
all who knew understandable IS. c. Banner,

DEATH OF Rich BANKER. - On Tuesday
morning Christopher Bullen, Of the banking firm Of
Leyland, Bulen & Co., died at his residence near
Liverpool. Mr. Bullen was probably one of the
wealthiest men in Europe, for he has, it is conf
IDENTIFY stated, left behind him cash to the amount
of .65,0OOOOO or G7,OOO,OOO. Although so very
rich he parsimonOus to an extreme degree
He resided in the house of his uncle Mr.. Leyaud
the founder of the bank; but although compare
lively small mansion, he occupied only two or
three apartments, and allowed the remainder to
fall into decay SO much that the par0rs and
drawing rooms were tenanted by sparrows, swal-
lows, and bats, the unglazed windows affording
them free ingress and egress. He saw no com
pany, courted no society, and INDUCED only in one
taste-the purchase of pictures. His paintings are
numerous, but he never hung them up, never ex-
posed them, and theynow remain as they did during
his Lifetime, piled up with their faces turned to the
wall. For several years his health had been bad
and some time ago he paid visit to Malta
Smyrna, &c, and returned greatly improved in
constitution, but the EXPENSE distressed him. and it
was only by the threat of legal proceedings, that
he was induced TO pay the physician who accom-
panied him 8700. Some time ago a merchant in
difficulties, amenting to him the state of his
finances, when he observed, " You are happier,
much happier, than am; you have got no money,
but you have got good health l have plenty Of
money, but have bad health; wish could ex-
change with you. '-English paper.

IMPROVEMENT IN GUN CAsTING.-A new me-
thod has been resorted to at the Cannon Foundry,
near Pittsburg for the production of guns Instead
OF bringing them from the mould sod and after
wards boring them, they are cast with the proper
bore the core being carefully prepared so as to
enclose a circle of cold water, which it receives
and discharges in a continuous current during the

chill the inner surface rapidly than the OUTER

Two guns-one cast on the old and the other on the
new plan--having been subjected to the usual
tests, the first exploded on the 9ih and the latter

CoLoRED DAUGHTERS OF TEMPERANCE.-A
controversy is going on at Harrisburg pa be-
tween two parties among the colored Daughters of
Temperance. The latest published despatch of
one party has the following sentence:
We have been more than perplexed, surprised
or confounded, al the shameless audacity, the
UnbiushtHg inpudencs, and the total want of every
thing like honor, honesty, truth or justice, in that
false, unfounded, and slanderous attack upon the
motives, character, responsibility and reputation Of
our honored and esteemed male Daughter of TEN
perance, James McCrummell, the Worthy Father
and Founder of our wide spread and beautiful
Ordar.''

A SwINDLE AND EXPLosION.-The following,
from the Philadelphia Ledger, reveals phase in
city life which may be acted over again, and should
be a warning to those who are unfortunate enough
to want employment: "For some weeks back, a
firm, styled Payton, Brown & CO., mailing from
of the offices at So Walnut street, have been ad
vertisng largely in the public papers, offering great
inducements to persons out of employment. They
protested to have the most eligible situations for
clerks and statesmen within their knowledge, and
promised to furnish intelligence of them to appli-
cants, at reasonable rates. Indeed they prolessed
TO have peculiar advantages, having special agent
who made il his business to make application 10 the
principal business men in the city, and ascertain
who were in want Of assistants Transparent as
these inducements must have been, it being mat
ter Of notOriety that no merchant need be an hour
without clerk or salesman, so many applicants
are there for such situations, yet Payton, Brown
q Co. succeeded in attracting many, who paid
them s., $40, and as high as $50 to be guaranteed
situations with salaries varying from $500 to $500
a year Their general course of business seems to
have BEEN 10 fix the frst of October as the day on
which the seeker was to be indicted into his new
situation, and each one was requested to call at
that time, when the whereabouts Of his place

pointed time, groups of men began to gather about
the office of PaytOn, Brown Co., at an early hour
in the morning. By 9 or 10 O'Clock the throng had
become dense it filled up the entry and crowded
the pavement; loud knocks were made at the door
Of the Office, but with no response. AT length il
became evident that PaytOn, Brown q Co. were

Mr.. WALSH ON HUNGARIAN SYMPATHIzERs.
Mr.. Walsh still continues his correspondence with
the American press. In his last letter he saws
" See the pquant article of the London Times of
the 9Th inst, on the Hungarian sympathizers in
Great Britain. De te tabula, ETC., etc. Have the
courage to reprint it in eTtenSo" The following is
an extract from the "piquant article of which
Mr. Walsh speaks:
"Crowds have met at public meetings to 'ex-
press their sympathy it il riied in formal reso-
buttons. While dozen different tribes on the
banks of the Danube were cutting one anOther's
throats and destroying the little civilization tbe
had attained TO, comfortable gentlemen were ex-
pressing sympathy for some of the said lribes-it
was difficult to say Wilhelm our provincial town
halls and suburban tea-gardens. They met to pat
Hungary on the back, and did not take the trouble
to consider whether it were kind to do so, or the
most abOminable cruelty. Their conduct was that
of the passenger in the streets who sees plucky
little fellow showing fight to big one, or perhaps
TO two big ones, and amuses himself by taking the
part of the little one. That's right he cries,
AT him again. Do MT be beat The victim of
this sympathy begins TO show signs of punishment,
and forthwith his generous hacker sneaks off TO his
own avocatOns.''
And then the article goes on to misrepresent the
Hungarian war, and the character of the struggle
to throw off the Imperial authority of Austria:
"The Imperial Government of Hungary has been
Imperial but by no means adUeTse to the ibertV ana
progress Of the people, It has been rather popular
than aristocratic; and on that account has found
so little favor with the Magyars. 1t has aimed a
an amalgamatiOn Of races, an object Of undOubteC
utility, though certain to be unpopular with thOs,
who are conscious of no merit but class VIVA
the object of the instruction has been no man car
say; except that it was an unprincipled coalition
between two contrary eements-an arstOcratic re
bellion in the disguise of democracy. As to the
present phase of affairs, having never thought Aus
trs an unmitigated tyrant, or pinned our faith on
the virtues of Magyarism, we do not think Hungary
has lost because it has returned to Its former state
We do not think that the submission of the Magyar
army is a convertible term with the introduction q
military despOtism and retTOgrade ideas. To the
best Of eur ideas the SchwartZenberg Cabinet has
never from the very beginning contemplated tn,
possibility of carrying on the affairs Of Austria ana
| Hungary except on broad constitutional principles
its sole object having been to prevent The repeal
| the UHion-that is, the ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the EN-
| pire. AT present the Government is forced to re
tain military character, as some time must elaps
before the submission of Hungary can be bot
| complete and secure"
