Their Mrs. Cunningham nor Eckel were the
murderers Of DIR. Burdell. 1t is singular
circumstance that alter Burdell left his house

saw him in the interim between that hour
and his return, which must have been after
nine o'clock. DR.. Burdell was bad man in
almost every respect, and frequented the
worst gambling ooteries of the city. It is
quite possible that he was murdered by an

rooms. There seems to be little if any doubt
that Mrs. Cunningham is his widow.

CATTLEl STARVING TO DEATH. We learn
from gentleman who came in from Concord.
yesterday, that many cattle are dying from
starvation in that town. The hay IS entirely
consumed, and none can be purchased IN the
vicinity at any price. Some of the farmers
have come into the city for corn, to keep their
stock alive. In several towns in Cattarauaus
county, cows are said to be dying for want of
food. The snow still lies upon the ground,
the roads are almost impossible, and as the
hay, straw, and grain, are exhausted, there is
no alternative for the farmers but to suffer
their cattle to die--Bufalo Courier, 22d.
