Leavenworth, Ind. Jan. 12.

Mr.. ED:-On Monday last aman by
the name of Crawfeld left his house
on purpose to work at his trade in our
Town. He gave his wife charge Of
his home concerns during the week,
and she did not expect his return until
Saturday right. On coming to town
where's a new Doggery has just been
opened, the temptation was too strung
for the unfortunate man, and he be-
came intoxicated. Being thus disqual-
fled for labor, he started for home
On his arrival, il being after night, he
found the door fastened as he had
charged his wife, for she was alone
and he had furnished her with mus
ket loaded by his own hands, and on
leaving home he charged her to defend
herselfif molested by any one. When
he came to the door, being so drunk
that he knew no danger, he rushed
against the door with violence, and
would not make himself known. After
considerable effort TO force his way into
the house. the wife having previously
warned him, telling him that she would
shoot, became SO alarmed that she
shot at the door, and shot her hus-
band through the heart In one min
ute he was dead. To-day she was
tried for murder, before a justice ofthe
peace, and was recognized to the Cir
cult Court. She has chain on her
person to keep her secure. This is
enough. Monday wife at home in
peace; Tuesday widow; Wednesday
confined in prison. Whocauscd that
dreadful deed? Certainly the man
who sold the liquor.

DEAR SIR:- You ask me to attend
your Convention Of Editors and Pub
fishers, on the 10th proximo, which it
is not practicable to do. Your alter
native proposition, that would write
you word OF advice, or suggestions,
is readily adopted. would suggest,
then. that the Editors and Publishers
of Ohio, will act worthily and usefully,
if they adopt the following course Of
journalist faith and practice, to be lived
up to hereafter, viz:
1. Cash payments for all printing,
when delivered, for all advertisements
when ordered, il by strangers, and
when their publication is completed, il
ordered by men ofknown responsibility.
Should the term Of publication exceed
six weeks, bills to be presented and
paid monthly. Newspapers to be al
ways paid for when delivered. and, il
sent by mail. to be paid for in ad-
vance.
2. An earnest and intelligent sup
port of fthe principles, fundamental doc
trines and active measures of any par
ty, to be given according to conviction;
but the knaveries of defaulters and
spectators Of ones own party to be
visited with, at least, equal severity as
though the culprits belonged to the sd-
verse party. Let thepublic be assured
that editors are not attorneys who
whitewash or blacken characters, as
they happen to be fed by plaintiff or
defendent, but in the main, intelligent,
Independent, patriotic citizens, who
support one party, or the other, as
they honestly believe best for the coun-
try. l think the majority of the
American journals more servile and
indiscriminate in their partianship
than those Of any other free country.
3. Systematic resistance to, dis
couragement of the lawyer practice of
harrassing the press with suits of libel
founded on mistakes, inaccurate infor-
nation, or the unobserved insertion
of some advertisement, or police re-
port that somebody chooses to consider
disparaging.
4. General agreement to discuss
principles and public measures more
thoroughly, and personal character less
frequently, and more sparingly.
8. A more united, systematic, de-
termined, advocacy Of improvement in
common school education, as essential
to the public welfare, first, and TO the
liberal circulation Of newspapers
next. ~ $50
8. The earnest commendation TO
public favor of all judicious measures
intended to diffuse practical education
in the sciences aud useful arts, to di-
minsh pauperism and crime. and to ex-
tend the sway Of justice, temperance,
virtue, and true religion.
Yours for progress,

WHITE PLAINS, Franklin Co., Ind.
January IL, lS54.}
Mn. EDIroR:-Most other sections Of
this country are represented in your ex-
cellent paper. Why not the White
Plainst That fearful disease, the Scar
let fever. has visited most Of the fami-
lies in this vicinity. and 10 some extent
has proved fatal. But the disease has
now abated. The children Of the dis
trict are reguining their health; and our
school, under the administration of Mr..
Joseph s. Ryman, is again in session,
and bids fair 10 become one OF hhe schools
OF the day. BY visit to the school re-
Gently, was satisfied that our teacher
Is wisely selected. His long experience
and practical knowledge Of school gov
ernment, enables him to control with
ease the school, part of which, under
former teachers, was almost incontrolla-
BILE.
Notwithstanding the school has been
in session only two weeks, the exercises
seem TO 60 on as smoothly as in an old
established academy.
Smiths Institute, northeast corner
Of the Plains, T. T. Smith principal, is
said to be doing good service also. in the
cause of education. IL the parents ol
the young men and boys attending said
schools, would whisper a few words OF
advice to them about the "Indian yells. p
and disgraceful noises they make on the
public highway, going to and from
school, their present reputation, and
their prospect for future usefulness,
would be more favorable. The Rev.
II. b. Hibben, our preacher in charge,
is gaining favor with the people. That
superhuous gassing that characterizes
some mems speaking, is all avoided
He enters Immediately upon his subject,
preaching pointedly to the text; not
"from it, using only that language
which will tell upon an audience.
The house of the widow Lions, hall
mile south of the Plains, was destroy ed
by fire on Tuesday evening the 10th inst.
together with all of her household and
kitchen furniture; leaving the whole
family without even clothes except what
they had upon their backs. Mrs. Lions
left home at noon of that day; and it is
supposed, the fire was kindled by pig,
