DEATH FROM PorsoN USED IN BRASDr.-
Mr.. Morris, of Toronto. Canada, a clerk in a
house engaged in the manuiacture of brandy,
was killed by drinking, by mistake, small
portion Of preparation, nearly allied to
prdssic acid, which had been procured in the
regular course Of the business. There is
something very horrible in this. If such in
gradients are mixed with manufactured liq-
uors, and nearly all the liquors sold are
doubtless manufactured, tits ots,range sha:
the use of spirituous liquors, always hurtful,
has become Of late SO terribly destructive

whisky hrs changed its nature and effects,
and old topers acknowledge that it now pro-
duces effects and feelings never before expert
enced from it. 1t causes delirium and
phrensy unknown to them few years ago.

~ john CLARK, who was arrested here
for causing the death of an Irishman in the
difficulty on board the Eaves at New Albany,
and who was taken to that city by OMcer
MARTIN, had preliminary examination. and
was admitted to bail in the sum of $4,000
which he readily furnished 1t appeared
from the evidence that CLARK, although he
had beaten the Irishman, did not knock him
overheard. CLARK, had been taken from the
fellow and was held by one of the by stand
ers, and the irishman was making his escape
when man by the name of FAUCET, threw
a stick of wood and knocked him into the
river. where he was drowned. The sad af-
fair began with a quarrel between WHITE
the pilot, and the Irish deck hand; the latter
knocked WHITE senseless upon the deck with
o large lump of coal. breaking his jaw and
making an awful wound on his head. When
he fell it was supposed he was killed, and in
| the frenzy of the moment CLARE, rushed up
on the deck-hand ard beat him severely, but
did not cause his fall overheard.
The man who threw the stick of wood and
knocked him overheard has escaped. CAPT.
DUNCAN and his brother have been blamed
for not arrcsting the riot-but one of the
brothers was not on board the boat, and the
other, with Sam BIcKERsTAFF-as the passen-
gers testified, executed themselves courage
ouslyto stop the fight. But in the excitement
caused among tie men by the supposed muir.
der of the pilot, they were uncomfortable il
their fury. WHITE was very severely inju-
red and is still in dangerous condition.

Wednesday evening, about eight o'clock, was

The first signs Of life were followed by de-

The citizens of the Southern part of New

The English and American Post once.

The report of the English Post Master
1eneral exhibits a most notifying contrast
between the efficient and prosperous system
OF the English postal arrangements, and the
confused, disjointed, heterogeneous laws and
rules that make up our system. The aim OF
the English department seems to be- ito give
the greatest service and accommodation to
the public that the system by every improve
ment is capable of affording. Our plans sp-
pears TO be, to withhold every facility that
the people do not absolutely extort from the
government. We are obliged to contend for
every new grant as favor exacted from
hard and penurious master. The English
Government are constantly striving to ex-
tend the benefits of their postal operations in
every way and form to every citizen in every
part Of the Empire. Ours is conducted in o
manner to extrsct all the money it can from
the people, and secure rs high rewards as
possible for the ofrce-holder-to make the
whole organization subserve party interests,
and to do as little for the people, as they win
tolerate. 1t is only through the Post Office
that the great mass of the people in the in
terror participate directly in any of the mate
rial benefits Of tina Government; and this il
. so managed as 10 make it q burthen and an
circumference, rather than a blessing The
people Of the intcrior-and Of the Yves. in
particular-ought to demand with one ac-
cord, an entire reformation Of the whole sys-
tenn of the mail service so far as they are con-
earned.
Our Ill arranged and mismanaged system
Is costing the country two millions yea
more than its revenue, while the admirably
operations Of the English Post Office, seryin,
shous the same number of population, yield
anet revenue to the country Of more thar
$6,OOo,OOO. The Americans are a peopl
that would use postal facilities to an equa
extent with the English, if they were bu
granted to them. The popular wants at tn
West have never been half supplied by GU
Post Office, and the service has been 8
wretchedly performed as to make it half tn
time useless.
The following tables have been collated b
the New York Tribune and exhibit in
very forcible manner the different results Q
good and bad management under two sys
TENS very much alike in their general plan
The first embraces the operations Of til
British Post Office from the beginning of tb
penny postage in 1910 to 1857.

" The Conference of the Uaitarian
Church at Aitor, has split upon the subject Of
Slavery. A decidedly anti-slavery reselu-
lion was introduced and referred to-a com
-mittee who reported on Saturday. in favor of
its adoption. This led to an exciting debate,
in which the delegations from st Louis and
few other points talked verv sweetly about
"the institution" and denounced the resolu-
ton as '.uncalled for, improper, dctatorial
and schismatic," but it availed nothing.-
The resolution was adopted bya very de-
cisive majority. After this, Mr.. Elliott and
his comrades from st. Louis, took their leave
Of the conference, dissolved alf connection
with it, and went home in disgust.
