The BuRDELL MURDER IN New YoRK.-The'
New York Herald, in speaking of the murder
of DIR. Burdcl and the holding ovor for trial
of Mrs Cunningham, Eckel and Snodgrass,'
says
Without entering into the question as to
the guilt or innocence of the parties accused,
very valuable moral is to be deduced from the
revelations in regard to certain class of New
York Society, which have been given by this
Investigation. We have had house unroofcd
before our eyes, We have seen woman and
her daughters absolutely becoming brigands of
society. The mother was at the same time the
mistress Of two mcn--cach of whom had
another mistress-all the women occupying
semi-respectable positions-half way between
heaven and earth. The resident mistress visits

generally, and have nice time" of it, until
one fine morning the person who finds the
funds to carry on the rcvelry, is found with his
carotid artery severed, and three wounds
piercing his heart. A direct personal benefit
is to accrue to the parties who have been shell
tered in his house, and the public voice accuses
them of the deep damnation of his taking

Expedition to Pitt Rlvcr-Poisoning Indians.
In previous issue, says the Shasta Repub-
Hcan, we stated that an expedition had been
organized at Smiths Ranch, on the road to
Honey Lake Valley, and had started to Pitt
River Valley for the purpose Of discovering if
possible, some clue or trace Of those who were
lately massacred at that place. The expedi-
ton was under the command Of S. Lockhart
brother Of oneof those who were killed. Tho
company was composed of eighteen persons.
The snow was deep upon the mountains, and
many difficulties were encountered. The COM
pany, however, succeeded in reaching the
crossing at Pitt River, where Mr.. Lockhart had
resided The house had been burned to the
ground. 1t appeared that the massacre had
taken place in the daytime. Between tho
house and field wagon loaded with hay had
been burned, and the oxen employed in draw
ing it had been slaughtered while the yokes
were upon their neck No traces were found
Of the remains of the unfortunate pioneers.
The company captured boy, about eigh.
teen years of age, and information was derived
from him which led Mr.. Lockhart TO hope that
his brother was yet alive. The boy stated
that all had been killed except him, and that
he was some distance up the river in the keep
ing of tribe of Indians. The party being short
of provisions, were compelled to abandon their
investigations, and return to the settlement
from which they started.
Mr.. Lockhart was in this place on Tuesday
last, and on Wednesday left for Yreka-intend-
ing to raise company there to search for his
brother.
While in this place Mr.. l.. informed one Of
our citizens, that before leaving Pitt River on
his late expedition, he mixed considerable
quantity of strychnine with -four, and placed
it where it would be found and consumed by
the starving Indians. lie also stated, with ap-
parent gusto his poisoning achievements du-
ring last summer while living with his brother
in Pitt River Valley. According to his own
story, a number of the Indians of that section
of the country were trcacherously poisoned by
him. Since hearing of the above conduct VIC
have lost our wonder at the untimely fate of
the settlers of Pitt River Valley.
We have never heard of but one parallel to
the above. Some years since in Siskiyou
county, a considerable number of Indians were
invited to treat with the whites. Suspecting
no treachery, they assembled for that purpose,
and while sentiments Of kindness were being
interchanged between the parties, they were
feasted to death upon poisoned meat and bread.
Whites who betray a confidence in them, in
this manner, degrade themselves far, very far,
beneath the low level of the untutored and
miserable Digger. There are no words in our
language fit for the adequate description of
such horrible trcacherv.
Captain Judah will spend the coming cam
paign in the Pitt River country. We know
him well enough to be fully assured that he
will pot allow any of these gentry who ply the
poisoning trade, to disgrace his camp or make
war upon Indians that they have so basely be-
trayed.

THE RESULT.

We publish a table of all the Congress
sional Districts in the State with the vote
os far as ascertained.
In the first District, DIR. II. M. Shaw,
DEM. is elected by 45 majority over w. n.
II Smith, wing. This is democratic gain.
In the second District, Hon. Thos. Ruff
fin. DEM, is reelected without opposition.
In the third District, Hon. Warren
winslow, dem, is reelected. Mr.. Meares,
wbig, of New Hanover, was voted for by
tbe opposition IN several counties, but he
was not regular candidate.
In the fourth District, Hon. L. OBJ.
Branch, DEM, is re elected without OppOsi-
ton.
In the fifth District, John A. Gilmer, Esq
wLic. Is elected BY about 500 majority over
SF. Williams, democrat. This district
was represented in the last Congress by E.
& Reade, know nothing, whose majority
at that time was nearly 5000. Mr.. Will
Tams has made u good run and had the
democratic party been better organized in
the District we think he would have been
elected.
In the Sixth District, A. NJ. Scales, dem
ocrat. is elected by 40 majority over Hon.
re. Purycar, whig, who represented the
District in the last Congress, having been
elected by so majority. Scales is another
democratic gain.
In this the 9TH District, Hon. 3. Craige,
dem. i reelected. Wepublish the official
vote of the District as compared by the
SheriffS of the different counties in this place
ON Thursday last. Mr.. Craige had no
regular opposition, but it will be seen that
A. J. Dargan, wing, of Arson, was voted
for in some counties pretty largely.
In the eighth District, Hon. L. L. Cling
man is reelected by handsome majority.
So the delegation from North Carolina
will stand seven democrats and one wing.
This result is not unexpected to US. We
are not disposed to indulge i'll any unneces-
sary cxultation at the triumph of the demo-
cratic candidatcs-we view it as the result
of conservative principles. Our opposition
friends We suppose. look upon the result as
a matter ''in the course of human events"
not at all surprising. All right.

SHAMEFUL OUTRAGE IN LYNCHBURG.-
The old Methodist Church in Lynchburg,
on Sunday night last, was the theatre of a
shameful outrage. 1t is thus noticed in the
Courier:
1t appears that on Sunday night last, a
sacreligious wretch managed to obtain ac-
cess to the gas-meter and let off all the
water; the consequence was that the gas
soon went out, leaving the church in total
darkness. Then it was that the same
wretch, together with his accomplices, scat
tered many pounds o0fnely poacdered pepper
on the floor, benches, ratings and elsewhere!
The house was densely crowded, and after
the gas was lighted again and while the
preacher was in the midst of stirring ap-
peal to the consciences of his hearers, the
ladies commenced to ply their fans. and the
persons standing in the aisles to move about
to get little fresh air. This reused up
the powdered pepper, and started the whole
congregation to coughing and sneezing at a
rate SO terrible as to put a speedy stop to
the services. Unable to endure their suf-
ferings, many of the congregation rose up
and made for the doors. The doors could
not be opened! There uere a0retches outside
holding them with ropes! How long this
state of things lasted we were not told =
what the consequences must have been, we
leave to be imagined.
