CRIME AND THE END.-Three men entered
the dwelling Of Abner Davis, near Mansfield,
| Ohio on Saturday last, after dark, and the
Banner says, demanded his moncy-one of the
men at the same time presented pistol at the
head of Mr., Davis. and the others prepared with
bludgcons and knives, in case of resistance.
Mr. D., finding resistance useless, unlocked
his chest and gave them bis money, (S93O,) af-
ter which they left; and being followed some
time after by Mr., Davis and others, two of
them were found frozen to death, about a mile
from where they committed the robbery and
the other some distance beyond, apparently re-
turning to his Gfeless companions almost in
sensible-tho night being stormy and good
deal of show having fallen. 1t appears that
they had provided themselves plentifully with
whiskey, and drinking to excess, sat down on
u log, and becoming nsensble to the cold or
their situation, fell over, and were thus found
after life was extinct. The money was found
upon the person Of Jones, one of the men frozen.
The latter is supposed to be an old villain from
New York, the others from Mt, Vernon.

Can Jonathan FiQht3

The London "Times" makes somewhat of an
admission on this subject 1t says; "Early in the
American war it was plainly discerned by the
most sagacious of British statesmen that our
armies, superior as they showed themselves in
the field, must be ultimately unavailing against
the resources of country where every citizen
could WELD musket with good will against an
invader. The result proved the truth of the pre-
diction; and though we do not, as we have said,
consider the tendencies of these institutions as
highly pacific, there is doubt that they furnish
an impregnable bulwark against hostile attack"

Hd- The Indians of California have, within
the last few years, received from the white i'm
migrants in that region the various diseases they
have carried with them, but not the means of
curing those diseases. The consequence is, that
they have persisted in multitudes; whole families,
and even bands, have become extinct. The exan-
hemata, or eruptive diseases, such as measles,
smallpox, scarlet fever, &c., have been peculiarly
severe, as well as the whooping cough. The red
man may ere long be almost unknown upon this
continent.

Murder will Ont

moved to Alexandria, every effort was made to
identify it, but without success, and the whole
matter remains to this day yelled in impenetra-
BILE mystery. We have recently heard it rumored
that person somewhere, in place we shall not
name, lying i'll, at the point of death, has con-
fessed to his attending physician his participation
in that horrid and mysterious murder
