Garrotlng In Wheeling.

The Wheeling Argus says, a young mar
named Dudley, from Noble county, o.,
stated at 2 a. m. yesterday, that he had
been "garroted" and knocked down, and
robbed on Main street, between Monroe
and Quincy streets. lie had gone with
bis q2cle, man named Martin, to a
house of ill-fame in the 4th ward, and says
that he lett at a. M; his uncle prefer
ring to remain: and that having walked
slowly, he was waylaid, and was robbed
of gold watch which he valued at 81 so,
and $l5 in money. He refused 10 make
complaint, as he suspects his uncle. He
had over S30u in the hrrast pocket OF his
coat, which escaped the grip of the rob-
bcrs.

Judge Taney and HIS Opinion.

The Washington correspondent of the
Evening Post relates a funny report about
the answer of Chief Justice Taney to the
application of the National hatelKgencer
for copy of his opinion in the Dred
Scott case. 1t is said that the Chief
Justice, in order apparently to administer
a slap at the conduct of his associates,
Curtis and Mclean, in publishing their
opinions in advance Of filing them, re-
piled somewhat as follows:
Chief Justice Taney returns his COM
pliments to the editors of the National
IatelAgeneer, and, in reply to their request,
begs to inform them tha, he does not pre-
pare opinions for the use of juvenile de-
batting societies or of political newspa-
pers. He would add, that when his opin-
ion is filed it will be published by the Re-
porter of the Supreme Court who alone
has ths right of Publishing its decisions,

The Election.

We have as yet rather slim returns from
the election in the different townships of
this county. The Democrats have it
nearly all their own way, so far as we have
heard. Green and some other townships
report large Democratic majorities In
this township, as we suppose was the case
in many others, the opposition made little
or no show. Taking the election gener-
nlly, there was less excitement than we
have witnessed at any election for some
years.

Advertising A Moral Duty.

Some years ago it was proposed by an
American Physician that members of the
Faculty should advertise their remedies
and modes oftreating diseases in the news
papers. 1t was bold and manly idea.
1t was secuted, however, by the profession
generally, as intra dig. But is there any
degradation in publicity? Is it not rath-
er the great touchstone that ties preten-
sion and universities the practical bene-
fits of all valuable inventions and discov-
cries? Should nota profession that aims
at the mitigation Of suffering and preser-
vation of life, make the means of obtaining
these grand objects known through the
channel of information most accessible to
all classes and conditions, the columns Of
the public press? If it declines to do So
the natural inference is either that the de-
sire of secrecy arises from a sordid, mon
opolzing, egotistic spirit, or from a lack
of faith in its own prescriptions.
Viewing the subject in this light, we
may presume Professor Holloway some
twenty years ago, overleaped the barriers
which the profession had erected between
itself and the public, and plunged fearless
ly into the newspaper arena. lie had
discovered or rather invented, after years
of research and experiments, two prepar
ations which he believed to be specifics for
nearly all the diseases of mankind; and as
an Indication of his confidence in them,
and a proof of his philanthropic wish that,
if really valuable, they should be accessi-
BILE to the whole world, he advertised them
wherever advertising media existed. This
was the severest ordeal to which he could
have submitted them-the erperiment,m
crucis. LIE threw them at once, as it were,
before the sick of all regions. He stated
their properties, proclaimed what they
would do, and staked reputation and for
tune upon the issue. That issue has been
all that he or the world could have desir-
ed. The rich and the poor, the learned
and the ignorant, physicians, statesmen,
mon archs, nation of enlightened freemen,
have sanctioned, used, extolled them
They are fred facts in medical history!
Is not this better than hiding light
under bushel? Is it not better that
writing prescriptions in dead language,
and putting weights and quantities into
hieroglyphics.
If anything is worth knowing it is wor-
thy of being universally known. So
thinking, Holloway proclaimed the virtues
of his medicines through the press; and
fortune, fame and gratitude of millions
have been his reward. ~ Y. Sun.

The LAND FEVER IN THE WEsT.-The
St. Louis Courier speaks of stringent
money market in that city, and thus re-
fers to the cause:
"The mania for buying lands, not only
by original entry from the Govern
ment, but by the farmer purchasing from
his neighbor--who takes the money and
removes to d distant territories, and then
again invests this same money in new
lands, bought from government, which is
producing arrangement in our monetary
afairs-in word, the prominent cause Of
this great stringency is speculation in lands
and town lots, and if this continues, and
progresses as rapidly as it has done for
the past two years, crisis must inevitably
come"
Unless this fever is checked some seri-
Gus disaster will be inevitable. 1t is i'm
possible for individuals to become specu-
lators, and at the same time to attend
properly to their pursuits.

Frsm the Pittsburc Union. I
Tha Washington County Murder


Although week has elapsed since
Samuel II. White was brutally murdered
in bed in his residence near the borough
of Washington. the police have been un-
able to gather any satisfactory or even
circumstantial information which might
serve to dispel the cloud of mystery which
hangs around the bloody deed.
The Washington Examiner of the 4th
INST contains full particulars of the trag-
edy and diagram of the house and prem
ises. The editor thus describes the ap-
pearance of the room, as he entered it
about ten o'clock Monday morning, some
seven hours after the murder:
"The face and head was covered with
clotted blood; the gore was dry and hard
not feature of the face could be dis
cerned. The pillow and bolster on which
the head rested were saturated with blood,
and the sheet contained perfect pool of
it, extending from the neck of the deceas-
ed to the middle of the body Blood was
all around. The head-board and the n.y.
per post of the bed-the ceiling above the
bed-the wall at the head of the bed-the
window at the side of the bed-and even
the wall six feet from the bed, were red
with blood"
The appearance of the desk in which
were the secret drawers used by Mr.
White for keeping his money, is thus
described by the Examiner:
''The door that inclosed these drawers
was found to have been pried off its hing
es, and the drawers bore the marks of hav-
ing been rummaged. The lower and lar
ger drawers of this desk, in which clothing
was kept, had evidently been examined
by the robbers and murderers, as their
contents were displaced. There were no
marks of blood on the desk, which, in oui
opinion, goes to show that there were two
persons engaged in the murder, for no one
could have delt the blows without getting
very bloody One must have done the
robbing while the other accomplished the
killing"
The local press do not breath word
of suspicion against Mrs. White, although
the truth of her testimony is questioned
by the Monongahela Republican, publish
ed in the same county. For want of ,
more reasonable theory-or rather in tn
absence of all material TO form any othe
the police and the public generally here
abouts regard Mrs. White as the murder
ess, or, at least, of knowing who the mur
derers are. We have carefully read tn
entire testimony, and we can see nothin
to warrant such dreadful conclusion.
does not appear that she could have ha
any motive for committing the act.

More Traces of Sir John Franklin's
Party

extract of letter, dated Red River Set

Der 6:

should write to you by the first opportuni-

traces of whites being seen in the North.
l have just returned from -, who was
at Norway House last July, and saw the
man who brought down all express to Sir
George Simpson from Mr.. Anderson, in
McKenzie's River, (districD stating that
the Indians had brought over reports to
one of the trading points in that quarter,
that Indians had seen two or more encamp-
ments of whites on an island on some
point where Anderson and Stewart turned
back Gin lS55)and that one ofthe encamp-
ments particularly was quite fresh, sup
posed to have been abandoned day or
two before the Indians saw it, and, from
the traces, thought there might have been
about ten or twelve men. 1 could no.

OHIO CONTESTED ELECTIoN.

The Dayton, Ohio, Empire gives the
following account of the Congressional
contest in that district:
The testimony has been taken in But.
ler and Montgomery counties, on the part
OF Mr.. Vallandigham, and in Montgome-
ry county upon the part of Mr.. Campbell.
Mr.. Campbell has been for some time IN.
der the Impression that the contest was to
be child's play. We suppose that he does
not now labor under any such dslusion.
AS we understand the position of mat
ters, (and our information is from reliable
sources0 Mr.. Vallandigham now leads
MIR Campbell to the amount of fifteen or
twenty-five votes. Among the illegal
votes proved in.Butler were sixteen black,
yellow and mixed "gemmen of color"
"By the statute regulating the taking
OF testimony in contested elections only
sixty days after the service of the answer
are allowed to either party to procure
evidence. The sixty days have, expired.
And the law is that "no testimony shall
be taken after the expiration of sixty days
from the day on which the answer of the
returned member shall be served upon tho
contestant"
The matter then stands closed up.
and Mr. Vallandgham undoubtedly ahead.
Mr.. Campbell, We hear, proposes con-
tInulng the taking of depositions during
the summer. He may suit himself. He
must come down on his knees before
democratic congress- begging an extern
sion OF time. or the admission of illegal
testimony, to save himself from being
onsted at the next session. He has no
ground for favor. And we shall be much
surprised if the law is in any way stretch
ed for his benefit"
