MILLER, THE MURDBRER.-The Cum
berlan Miners journal of Saturday last
says:
Ii is the expressed wish of the murder
er, as it is also that Of his spiritual advi-
sers, til II persons visiting his cell should
refrain Grom nunts snl unkind language
towards him. In several instances, when
the Rev. NJ. Myers had in measure
turned his thoughts 20 the reality of his
awful cord,ion, some one entering has IN
a momen, brought back his brute Obstlna-
CIV and moroseness, by imprudent queS-
tons and threats No good can be etiec-
ted By thus affecting him. He has shown
some disposition To he advised which may
eventually lead to full repentance and con-
lcssion. Let il not be said, therefore, that
lie was prevented by this means in dong
this last act Of duty towards his God, even
though he be wretch almost beyond Dl-
vine mercy.

A VIRGgNIAN's OPINION OF KANSAS
a cores ondent Of lie Winchester RePuo-
llcan,who emigrated TO Kansas from Fred
erlck county, writes letter to that paper
under date of November Slh, from when
we take the following extract:
Kansas according to our humble oPIn'
ion, is greatly overralcd. Timber IS eX'
tremely scarce, being found only along
creeks, &C., but the soil generally is very
prolific. The Territory has been very
unhealthy, and the shakes have forced
many to sigh for home again. Kansas
will undoubtedly be 4 FREE State, for we
have trice as many arrivals from the NORTH
as from the South. The largest city III
Kansas does not contain over l,5OO IN
habitants, and many of the cities you
read ab1dl' exist only in name. Many
are returning. and upon the whole, Nan
sds is humJug."
