9n ANOTHER Rum MURDER Thurow W..
Brown, Esq, The talented and fearless editor "
the Cayuga Chief (Auburn), who Is now trav-
cling in thelwest, writes letter to, his paper
from which we make the following extracts :
young, well-dressed, gentlemanly appear
ing man, with a lovely wife and child, had jour
neyed on the same train with us from Buffalo.
At, in spite of the earnest and fearful pro-
testations Of his wife, he would leave the depot
as he said on business From the wife's man
ner, we readily guessed what she thought his
business was For long hour she stood with
her boy in her arms awaiting his return, the tears
in spite of all her efforts, silently dropping upon
the cheek of her sleeping child He came Just
as the train started, drunk. He lurched towards
the platform, fell upon the rail, and his head was
severed from his body. Never, in life, shall We
forget the expression of the wife's countenance
rs She stood moment, her features pale ana
ghastly, and then fell senseless upon the cory
and smoking form of her husband. The wall
of the fatherless boy touched every heart, for
not one who looked upon the scene could re-.
frain from weeping. *so' X '"% '
We looked upon that woman as she was taken
like dead one from the headless corpse, her
heavy hair clotted with the blood that had just
jetted from the puseless heart, and felt fresh ha-
tired against damnable business, and all its
apologists and abettors." lH 9Hi tu9'' w

New LlFE-PREsERvaR.--Capt. Isaac Il. Phe-
att, of the steamer Northern Indiana, has invent
ed ard patented new Life-P Preserver, which
promises to be very valuable. The Toledo
Blade gives description of it. The idea is to
attach to each panne of every door on board of
vessel or steamboat an India Rubber sheet,
which, in collapsed condition, lies flat upon the
surface. Usually there will be four pannels to
door, and when the sacks are inflated it is de-
signed that the door shall be capable of saving
one or more individuals. Small cords are to be
attached to each door, and staples are driven in
each, so that two or more doors can be prompt
ly lashed together. Indeed, whole raft might
be made Of them. Each prcserver is to be made
so as to fit into any pannel of any door, and the
steward can at any time substitute sound for a
defective one

Invitations are out for the most sublime and
magnificent nuptials ever celebrated upon our
planet--the wedding of the rough Atlantic to
the fair Pacific Ocean The iron necklace has
been thrown across the Isthmus, the bans are
already published, and the brida party will leave
this city on Monday next February 9th, to per-
form the august ceremony. Some 100000 of
dollars have been spent in achieving this union (;
but, rs the fruits thereof will soon show it has
been money well invested. Across the bosom
of the Isthmus, the golden products of our Pa
cific borders and the incalculable treasures Of
the distant ORIENT are destined to flow in unre-
hitting streams.
The stupendous enterprise of uniting the two
Oceans which embrace the greater portion ofthe
globe, we are proud to say was conceived and
executed by our own citizens, in the frowning
face of obstacles that none but Americans conld
have overcome. The swamps, the mountains
and masmas Of the Isthmus drove all the engi-
neers Of Europe home in despair, who contem-
plated the gigantic undertaking, and the Her
culean work was left to the hands and hearts
of men in whose vocabulary "there is no such
word as fail"

nonnced the project utterly impractcable. To
