passed upon them by Judge Edmonds. Their
names are Joseph Clark, Michael Mulvey and
James Sullivan. They are to be hung on Friday
the 2lst day of November. In passing sentence
upon them, Judge Edmohds said:
''All Of you owe your crimes TO your indul-
gence in the ruinous habit of intoxication. All
Of you are foreigners, who have sought our soil
that you might enjoy the benefit of our free insti
tutions, and in return for the protection which
our laws SO freely offer to you, violate them with
out scruple, and apparently, without remorse,
even unto the shedding of blood. The preserva-
ton of peace and good order among US, and the
security of human life, admonish us, in pecul-
manner, under such circumstances, TO enforce the
law upon you."

The Monmouth Atlas, of the 10th inst, after
stating the action of the Board of Directors of the
Peoria Railroad, on the first Of the present month,
goes on to say:
$50 far as we have heard an expression, both
at home and abroad, all are pleased with the pre-
sent aspect of affairs, which is that there is no
longer doubt as to the road being built and that
speedily. And the probability is, that our own
farmers, should they choose to do go, can have
the privilege of making the grade of the road and
thus keep the entire outlay of that part OF the
work at home. That will be good saving to the
entire community living in the vicinity of the
road.
The contract is now in our own hands, that's,
in the hands Of the citizens of Warren; and i: has
been suggested to US that the business men-the
farmers, merchants, mechanics, &c.-living with
in distance of ten miles Of the road, are able to
build the entire work, and thus become the own
of the same. If such be the fact. our citizens
ought not to delay an hour, but commence imme-
diately and not rest until the whole is flushed.
No better investment of money or labor could be
the matter under advsement at once. Let the
road be built and managed by our own citizens
living along the road, and the profits of the road
whatever they may be, will be theirs"
The Knoxville Journal also speaks in terms Of
the highest satisfaction of the action of the Board
and the present prospects of the road. 1t will be
the same throughout the whole line of the road,
and we shall not be much astonished if such an
impulse be given to it as will put it through to
completion even in shorter time than that to
which it is now limited.

Six ''circles" have been organized in this city,
each consisting of twelve members, and each
meeting on different evenings Of the week. All
Of these ''circles" conSregate every Sabbath in
rooms which have been engaged in Broadway.
The purpose Of all this is said to be morality, re-
ligion, and spiritual knowledge.
All the ''circles" are under the direction of one
Christian Spirit, for the sake of preserving order
"because," as Mr. Fishbough says ''if all kinds of
Spirits were allowed to communicate, the result
would be like allowing all persons who chose, 10
send messages over a telegraph wire, some would

The Directing Spirit, which has been engaged,
is held responsible for all Communications and
has promised to do all in his power to control
them. Strangers are admitted when introduced
by member Of any of the "circes." Rules Of

Many of our citizens remember DR.. William Kellogg
Francis Fryer, who once practised medicine very extern
sively on the "UriscOpeaa" principle in this city. He it
seems has turned up in New Orleans where he is doing
a smashing business in the way Of curing all sorts of
ailments to which human flesh is heir. We clip the
following from the New Orleans Delta: The Doctor
understands the true secret Of success. He patronizes
the press.
We were visited yesterday by an elderly gentleman,
who exhibited an enormous cancer, which was taken
from his eye and nose, by w. X. F. Fryer. the Indian
Doctor, and proprietor of the Sanative House in this
city. The name of the patient is Mr.. B.. Mathews, Of
Perry county, Mississippi. The cancer, Mr.. Mathews
assures us. was extracted without the use of any cut
ting instrument, or drawing any blood. He is now in
excellent health, and believes that the cure is a complete
one. The man who can effect one such cure is a public
benefactor, and entities himself to the gratitude Of man.

The Louisiana Courier speaking of this distinguished
son Of Esculapius says: "This gentleman has long stood
conspicuous in his profession. His abilities are acknowl-
edged by friend and foe. His patients are numerous
and he cures almost invariably. All over the South are
men who can testify to his skill. He has driven disease
from the palace of wealth, and the howell OF poverty.
His manners are plain, and his smiling face soltens the
panos OF disease

Of Perry township, also presented to the meeting a half
bushel of extra large and beautiful Jeniten apples, Of
which he has a fine crop.
A few brief and spirited remarks were made by sever

tillage, and the great advantage to be derived from Ag-

honor you have THIS conferred upon me, by an invitation

Were it possible for nae to leave my pressing engag.
ments, preparatory to leaving for Washington, it would
be a pleasing journey TO me to visit the Capital of your
great and rapidly growing State; and especially on an
occasion of public demonstration in honor of one whose
meritorious greatness, on the battle field and in the coun-
ellis of State, has pointed him out as the man, the soldier,
and statesman, suitable for the times and the emergency
of our progressive age. But it is necessary for me 10
deny myself the pleasure of such a visit and the honor OF
such an occasion.
Permit me, gentlemen, TO add that, Individually. !
should feel agreeably honored by any opportunity within
