HIGHWAY OUTRAGE AND RoBBERY.-
On Thursday night, about 10 o'clock,
Mr.. ]. G. Boyd, a -four merchant from
Louisville, while passing along Broad
way, near the hotel for invaIids, was ac-
costed by two men, either negroes or
disguised as such, one of whom asked
the direction to Woodward street. Mr..
Boyd turned to show them, when they
both sprang upon him, one seizilg him
by the throat. the other securing his
arms. In a moment they had him pros
trate on the pavement, causing him to
fall with such violence as to almost en-
tireIy deprive him of sensibiliiy. They
then proceeded to rob their victim, ta-
king his wallet containing some $3.50
in gold and SEQ bills on the State banks
of Indiana and Ohio, cold watch and
chain worth upwards of 800; a pair
of gold speetacies, his cravat. eoaf, and
vest. This done. they struck him sew
eral blows on the head with "biIly,"
or some similar weapon, carried him a
distance Of nearly three squares and
threw him into an excavation some ten
feet deep, where he was found shortly
after daylight yesterday morning nearly
dead from exposure and his Wounds
He was carried to his lodgings, in the
dwelling of Mr.. J. Harrington on Frank
lin street, where he is now receiving
every attention his injuries demand,

TRAGEDY-A WIFE KILLING HER
HUSBANDS AssAILANT.-We have
from the Intelligencer the particulars
OF terrible tragedy near Marietta
last week:
On Sunday evening McKimmick
went to the house of John r. Sisk,
and told Sisk he had come 10 kill
him-at the sane time presenting a
pistol which he snapped. Sisk took
up a chair and attempted to strike
Mex, but the chair caught in the
clothes line. Mex, again snapped
the pistol, and then the parties
clinched, and soon after fell. Alter
swapping the pistol a third time, and
finding that it would not 90 of,
Mex. began beating Sisk over the
head with it. Sisk and his wife both
cried murder, and Mex, who was
much the heavier man Of the two,
had decidedly the advantage, when
Sisk's wife struck Mex. on the back
OF the head with a chair, which
fractured his skull and killed him.
The affray commenced in Sisk's
house, but when it terminated the
parties were a few steps from The
door, and the body OF the deceased
remained on the ground where the
fatal blow was given, from SUNDAY
night until the Coroner reached the
place-Wednesday afternoon.
The verdic; OF the Coroner's jury
was that McKimmick's death was
caused by wounds inflicted by Mary
Sisk, in efforts TO save her husbands
life, and also her own life, without
any malice or intention to kill.

About three years ago, at a d >.
tance Of fifteen miles from this city,
on the bank Of he Allegheny river,
at place called Kisr's Salt Wells, a
limpid oil was discovered, which has
since attained a wide spread celebrity
as remedy Of great value in the cure
oi various diseases. This fluid, to
which the name, Petroleum o.. Rock
on has been given, is pumped up
with the salt water at distance Of
4Oo ieet from the surface Of the earth,
and IS collected7in large quantities.
Inc attention of the proprietor of
the wells, Mr.. S. NJ. Kier, Of this
city, was directed to its medical prop
eriles, by persons in the vicinity, who
had used it for various diseases of n
scroiuluus and rheumatic character,
The Petroleum is now bottled in
large quantities and sold to various
parts OF the Union, and the demand
is daily increasing; nor is this 10 be-
wondered at, when references can
be given TO cures, not only at dis.
tance, but in our own city and in our
immediate vicinity, Of a character
that puts TO flight all ideas of impo-
sition. The case of VIM. Wall,
whose certificate has been published
in the columns Of our paper for some
time back, was one Of almost total
blindness; and we have certain evil
dence Of the fact that his sight was
entirely restored by this remarkable
production Of nature. Other cases,
OF equal importance, might be given,
ii It were necessary. How these
results are produced, we are at loss
TO divine, but the facts are before US,
and we cannot doubt them. Mr..
kier has in his possession hundreds
OF certificates and letters, atlesting
It's extraordinary curative powers,
which must convince any one of its
peculiar applicability to many of the
diseases incident TO our race. He
has gone TO great expense in prOcu-
ring circulars descriptive Of its pow
ers as a remedial agent, and has got
ten up handsome show.biII of the
works, together with billresembling
a bank note, describing the manner
in which it is obtained. We hope
he may reap a compensation com.

famed Petrolekm.-Pits. Jour.

WHAT Is A YEAR,

What is a year? IT'S but wave
On life's dark rolling stream,
Which is so quickly gone that we
Account it but dream.
'Tis but a single earnest throb
OF Times old iron heart,
Which tireless now and strong as whel
Itfirst with life did start,
What is a year? 'Tis but turn
OF Times old brazen wheel
Or but page upon the book
Which death must shortly seal.
IT'S but step upon the road
Which we mus: travel DER,
A few more steps and we shall walk
Life's weary road no more,
What is year? IT'S but breath
From Times old nostriIs blown.
As rushing onward DER the earth,
We hear his weary moan.
sTis like the bubble on the wave,
Or dew upon the lawn,
As transient as the mists Of morn
Beneath the summer sun.
WHAT'S year? IT'S but type
OF lies oft changing scene,
Youths happy morn comes gaily on
With hills and valleys green.
Next, Summers prime succeeds the
Spring,
Then Autumn with tear,
Then comes old Winter-death, and

The Philadelphia PennsyIvanian hs

The Philadelphia Pennsylvania has
the following broad hint:
Be JusT BEFORE YOU ARE GENERors.
We see amongst those guzetted as
having contributed largely TO the Kos
suih fund, the name Of a gentleman who
stands indebted on our books for some
four years subscription. The person
referred to has the reputation of gen.
erous, whole-souled, clever fellow
and we believe he is. but for all that,
we could not help thinking that if a pOr-
lion of the check so ostentatiously han
ded over to the "Kossuth Fund.- had
been appropriated to the debt so long
standing. the donor would have stood a
lite higher in our estimation as Just,
as well as a generous man.

A considerable emigration of slave
owners, with their slaves, is going
forward 10 California from North
Carolina, who are versed 10 the busi.
ness of gold digging. A party Of
twenty-three North Ca:olinians ar
rived at Charleston, few days ago,
with twenty-nine slaves, on their way

mines they will make the discovery
that slave labor is not tolerated by
the law Of force, nor recognized by
the law Of the books.

girl, in a family of my acquaintance
a lovely and precious child, lost her
mother at an age too earl Y to fix tie
loved features in her remembrance
She was as lrail as beautiful. and as
the bud Of her heart uniolded, il
seemed asif won by mothers pray
ers, to turn instinctively heaven
ward. The sweet, conscientious
and prayer-loving child was the
cherished one OF the bereaved fami-
ly. But she faded early away
She would lie on the lap of the friend
who took a mothers kind care OF
her, and, winding one wasted arm
around her neck, would say: "Now
tell me about my mammal" And
when the olt-toId tale had been re-
peated, she would ask softly: "Take
me into the parlor; | want TO see
my mamma" The request was
never refused, and the affectionate
child would lie for hours contentedly
gazing on her mothers portrait.--
But
''Pale and wan she grew, and weakly
Bearing all hsr pain so meekly,
That 10 Us she grew still dearer,
As the trial hour drew nearer.''
That hour came at last; and weep
ing neighbors assembled to see the
little child die. The dew OF death
was already on the flower, as if its
life's sun was going down. The
little chest heaved Gaintly-spasmodi-
cally.
"Do you know ne, darlingl"
sobbed close 10 her ear, the voice that
was dearest; but it awoke no an
-swer.

from the upper world, burst over the
colorless countenance. The eyelids
flashed open, the lips parted, the
wan, cuddling hands flew up, in the
little ones last impulsive effort, as
she looked piercingly into the far
above.
"Motherl" she cried, with surprise
and transport in her tone-and
passed with that breath into her
mothers bosom.
Said a distinguished divine, who
stood by that bed OF Joyous DEATH

iistration Of departed spirits before, |
