A terrible tragedy occurred at Casey-
vile, n.y., on Friday night. A man by the
name of Hall, who parted with his wife not
long since, and who killed man few weeks
ago Ill an encounter, met DIR. TAYLOR in the
streets and shot him, aud as the doctor fed,
pursued him into store and there stabbed
him twice in the breast, and finished the d.
abolical deed by cutting his throat and sew
eriDg the jugular vein. Hall then escaped to
his own house, barricaded the doors, armed
himself and defed the authorities to take
him. AT the last accounts he was besieged
in his own house by the citizens, no one hav-
ing courage to attempt to take the desperate
villain. The two terrible homicides commit.
ted by Hall, were prompted by the fell pas
sion of jealousy. DR.. Taylor leaves a family.
On the l4th inst, three children of a
Frenchman, named Joseph Brotte, in the
town of Willow Creek on Lake Huron
Michigan, strayed from their fathers shanty
into the surrounding woods two girls. Of
eight and six years, and boy of four. 1t
was two nights, one whole day, and part
Of two others, before they were found The
boy had been for some time senseless, and his
little sisters had laid him out, composing his
limbs. surprising him dead. He was restored
to partial consciousness, but only to die in his
mothers srms. The other two were restored
with difficulty. The children went into the
woods to hunt wintergreens. A dog was the
first to discover them.
A lad, thirteen years of age, son of
Thomas Hawthorn, of South Canaan. Conn.
had been helping his father in butchering on
Friday last. and had his clothes smeared with
blood. Entering the stables the smell of
blood made the horse savage; he attacked
the boy, threw him down, and struck him
with his fore feet, breaking his thigh bone
hall way above the knee. The boy managed
to crawl under the manger out of the reach of
the horse, which then broke loose and rushed
out of the stable.
Another saint has inst been added to
the Italian calendar, already sufficiently pie
thoric. About the first of November, an un-
married young woman named Christina MAJ
zola, died in the parish OF Jesu Vecchio, Ma
PIES who had for nine years tasted no other
food than the consecrated wafer, which she
partook OF daily at the communion.

aud below any former reprint of the same work,
is worthy of the highest communication and the
most liberal support. 1t will be seen that wha,

The Mormon war seems to be "fxed
fact, and the newspapers are calculating the
cost of subduing the rebel Young and his
Mormons, with their allies, the Indians, with
whom Young is on such intimate terms that
he has supplied some of the chiefs with white
girls from his haren, and taken squaws in
exchange. The st. Louis Republican says it
will cost four hundred million dollars to carry
on the war, or twice as much as it would to
build the Pacific Railroad, That is probably
a high estimate, but if the bills run up as in
the Seminole and other border wars, a hun
dred million dollars would be quickly con-
sumed. The cheapest way would be to let
out the conquest by the job. The Providence
Journal. the other day, thought that fllibus-
ter Walker could be put to such a USE He
has gone but John Mitchell and his associ.
ates might contract. 1t is certainly worth
while to find some way SO that the govern
ment will not have to pay for dead niggers

CAMBRIDGE, Dec. 10, 1857.
Messrs. Editors cambridge has been favored
recently with visit by Col. Fremont and his lady
"Jessie." Last Sabbath they both attended di.
vine services at the University chapel and listen.
ed to an admirable discourse from Rev. DIR.
Huntington. The chapel was unusually crowd.

finder and his no less notable companion.
On Monday they visited Cambridge again. 10
see the "2ights'' in and about the colleges. They
were accompanied by DR.. Huntington, Prof Eel.
ton. and Judge Joel Parker, and visited the Ii
brary in Gore Hall, Howard Hall, and other pla
ces of interest after which they visited the law
school in Dane Hall, Judge Parker introduced
the Colonel to the students Of the school, and he
addressed GO them few appropriate remarks.
The Colonel and his lady attracted good deal
Of interest and attention, and they seemed pleas
ed with their visit to sold Harvard
" e have very correct idea of the appearance
OF Fremont and Jessie from the pictures we have
seen OF them There is an appearance Of manly
independence. coupled with heart in the coun-
tenance Of Col. Fremont and we may well ada
that the appearance of "Jessie indicates that she
is fully worthy of him.
They are now boarding at the Revere House.
and we understand they will remain there for q
week yet. Yesterday they visited Salem We
predict they will have pleasant visit in New
England. Respectfully yours. STowELL
