KILLING WHALES by ELECTR1C1TY.-The
New Bedford Mercury describes pro-
cess invented by Prefers. Somersburg
and Buckston of Bremen, and brought
forward at New Bedford by Mr.. Heine-
ken, an intelligent merchant of Bremen,
for killing whales, at the moment of stri-
king them with the harpoon, by means of
electricity. The object of the expedient is
to produce an immediate paralysis of the
vital powers of the whale at the moment
at which he is struck, so as to obviate the
danger, the labor, and the hazard of loss
from the struggle of the whale after he is
struck, The process is thus described by
the Mercury:
"The electricity is conveyed to the
body of the whale from an -galva-
mic battery contained in the boat by means
of a metallic wire attached to the har-
pooh, and SO arranged as to conduct the
electric current from the whale through
the sea to the machine. The machine
itself is simple and compact in construc-
ton, enclosed in strong chest weighing
about $50 pounds, and occupying a
space in the boat of about three and a
half feet in length by two feet in width,
and the same in height, 1t is capable of
throwing into the body of the whale eight
tremendous shocks of electricity in Sc
cond, or nine hundred and fifty shocks in
minute, paralysing in an instant the
muscles of the whale, and depriving it OF
all power of motion, if not actual life."

EFFECTs OF THE RA1LRoAD-Our town

the contemplated railroad, by an unusual
emigration to it, of persons wishing to
take advantage of the increased business.
Dwelling houses are in great demand,
and every thing capable of afording shell
ter, is being occupied. We heard of a
stable being rented for good round sum,
to be converted into dwelling. New
houses are in progress of construction,
and we have no doubt that the supply
will bs>equal to the demand. ~

Body Found-suppo.od Murder /,

On Monday tho 7th inst, the body ola
man, apparently 80 years of age, was dis.
covered by some children, near the resi-.
dcncc of Chas. f. Burgoyne, three miles
below Fairmont, in the Monongahcla ri.
yer. Mr. Burgoync, aud others, after re
pairing to the spot, procured Justice Of
the Peace, who Immediately summoned
jury of inquest. When taken from the
water, a superficial examination merely
satisfied that the man had been brutally
murdered /; and further examination made
it clear that the murder had been com.
mittcd for the purpose of robbery. His
breastbone was broken in, his collar-bone
and neck were broken, and the left side
of his face was most shockingly mangled
as if beaten with a club. He was we'll
dressed, having on all his clothing except
on his feet. His boots had no doubt
been taken off his feet, as the pockets had
been torn from his clothing The body,
when first seen by the children, was Goa.
ting down the river, and brought TO shore
by them, before they knew what it was,
but on seeing il they Immediately spread
the alarm, which resulted in the disolo-
sures above stated. The matter is yetin.
yolyed in mystery, but it is TO be hoped
that the perpetrators may be ferreted out
and broughtto justice to'gantoa0p Mr.
TOr.

both sums, if any body else bit Frank is the

is, that Frank must live to run the race,
