MURDER OF MISS CArHARrNE HAYEs-Inteligence
from California, which arrived at New Orleans,
states that Miss Catharine Hayes, the Irish vo-
calist, has been wantonly murdered in San Fran
cisco by man named Jones. No reason is
signed for this horrid tragedy; but the populace
turned out en- masse, arrested the culpIt, and inn
mediately lynched him. This is certainly sad
news, and we hope it may turn out to be incor-

A whig Governor elected in Maine


J. w. Crosby, Wing, is elected Governor of
Maine by Legislature that is largely Democratic
on joint ballot, and which represents otie Of the
most decided Democratic States in the Tnion-a
State that gave Gen. Pierce 10000 majority over
Gen. Scott at the late Presidential election
This, though very strange and singular result,
was not certainly unexpected by US: The De-
mocracy of Mainej as well as in Massachusetts,
have been very much divided upon the question of
the expediency of the notorious liquor statue that
was first passed in that State some two years ago,
for the purpose of giving it trial;
The Governor being Democrat who signed
the bill, rendered himself on that account SO OBJ
noxious to portion of the party that when he was
re-nomnathd for the same Office they refused to
support him, and brought another Democratic
candidate into the field at the State election in
September last. Amajority all being required to
elect; this prevented choice by the people,
and carried the matter up for the Legislature to
settle, in which the Wings dnd the Detfdcratic
opponents of the liquor law combined; had ma
jority; SO they formed coalition and elected the
Whig candidate, before stated; in preference to
!
was in favor of the liquor statue. For this abah-
donment Of their party ties we presume it is un-
derstood between them and the Wings, that the
latter are to support ant-liquor law democrat
for the office of United States Senator, and we
shall expect to see this latter arrangement carried
out This divisions of the democracy in Maine
| is certainly very much to be resretted.-Cia.
