The New York Globe thus speaks of the ac-
counts circulating in the newspapers relative to
Mr.. flanagan, our Minister to Prussia, "a per-
sonal friend of ours, who knew him intimately
abroad authorizes US to say that the letter defa-
matory Of MIR. Hannegan, published in the whig
papers of Boston, and copied elsewhere, makes
nothing but statements utterly without founda-
ton. Mr.. flanagan never tasted drop of ar
dent spirits during his whole residence in Europe
and his conduct was of the most exemplary and
amiable character undar all circumstances. The
stories therefore, of the letter writer in question
are most cruel, as well as unjust, and were no
doubt the manufacture Of some personal ll-feel-
ing and nahgnty."

ANOTHER HORRIBLE MYsTERY-We are H.
formed through Messrs. Stevens g. Robinson's
Express, that very great excitement was occa-
stoned in Metlu3n and Lawrence yesterday, by
the discovery Of the murdered remains Of IA younr
woman named Adams, sewed up in some old
bagging. The body was found in Methuen, on
The Lowell road, about three miles from Law
renee, and exhibited the appearance of having
been dead two or three days. Tie face showed
severe bruises, and the skull was fractured and
crushed ID terrible manner! No marks of vio-
lcnce were found on the other parts of the body.
1t is the prevailing opinion in Methuen, that a
horrible murder has been perpctrated, and the
community are very much excited, as is also the
feeling i'll Lawrence, where it is said the unfor-
tunate girl has been employed in the factories.

Tribune says, the 4noney in the army expendi-

tons ii piled up in Spanish dollars, and would
load 7l8 horse wagons with 2000 lbs each of
solid silver coin. These dollars would reach
from the Potomac to the St Lawrence. If thew
were tipped into these streams, the country
would derive quite as much good from them.

RESULTS OF EMANcIPATION.-Sam'l May,
Jr., in speech at Worcester on the First of
August, made an interesting statement of
facts concerning the success of emancipa-
ton and the improvement of both employers
and employed in the West Indies, as he had
received them from Geo. w. Alexander, one
of the English delegates who have recently
spent seven months in traversing those colo
MICS. MIR. A. and his companion had made
the most thorough and careful examination
of every point of interest in connection with
the subject and his testimony was clear and
strong TO the glorious and boneficent results
of freedom. Wiihom one ercephon, every in
babilaDt of the Islands of every class who
had spoken of the subject, had declared
emancipation blessing. There was no beg
gary or extreme poverty among the eman-
cipated class; they supported their own poor,
were generally industrious, economical and
thriving-in many instances owning houses,
land and horses. AT one meeting he atten-
ded in a grove, he counted hco hundred and
eighty herses which belonged TO the emanci-
pated men who rode them. They are i'm
proving wonderfully their pre-
vious condition-in education, in morals, in
comforts, in appearance and in social position
A general engerness is felt by parents for the
education of their children, and at least, one
third of their children are in schlools.-Penn.

FORE an engagement again to quote the
impressive language Of MIR. Adams, sposi-
lively prohibited by the laws OF God, deliver
ed from Sinai,' aud forbidden by every die
tate of humanity. We might dilate, 10 any
extent, upon its direful cruelty, its utter bar
barjty, its revolving impieiy but this is un-
necessary; aud, besides, language is power
less to describe il. For who can enter into
the feelings of the slave, as, smarting under
the lash, and pining for liberty, he bursts his
chains asunder, Tor in many cases literally
carrying them fastened TO his limbs,) and
seeks safety and freedom in fiight-well
knowing that bloodhounds will soon he on

ciless than they; ignorant of his course, ex-
