The siove. in fact, including the foot-stove,
or chapfeiette, is the great enemy 70 Deausy
throughout the world. Wherever this Is used,
there is no such thing seen in the women as
middle age; all are either young and pretty
if nature has bestowed charms-or old and
ugly. The blooming middle age of the Eng y
lishwomau is the Grand distinctive feature OF
our island; and it is owing neither to the abb

THE MURDER OF MRs.s FILER.--There is
much excitement in Syracuse in relation to
the murder Of Mrs. Filler. The preliminary
examination of her husband was commenced
on Monday, before Justice Cuddebaek Of Sy- &
racuse. Mary Cummings, the servant girl,
testified that Filer's little son woke her up in
the middle of the night. She got up and saw
Filler in the sitting room. He told her to go
to bed again. Shortly afterwards he knocked
at the door of her room, told her that he had
murdered Mrs. Filler, and what he wished her
to testify. Shortly after he gave the alarm
and called the neighbors to the spot, Filler
had attempted to poison hisyFwife few days q
before. The testimony Of Mary Cummings
was long, and an attempt was made to set it
aside on the ground that she was an accom-
pice. The examination was postponed until
Wednesday of next week. taa els
Ascend inquest has been held on the body
of Mrs. Filler, when a verdict was rendered to
the effect that she was murdered by being shot
and otherwise wounded by her husband. ae
The testimony of Mary Cummings did not
agree with her original statements of the
affair, but she said that those statements were
made under personal fear.
