Il Double Murder.--A shocking affair
occurred ON the 18th inst, in the town of
Calais, VT. A young man, about IS years
of age, named Ariel Martin, took his rife
in the morning, went into neighboring
haying field, put himself in ambush, and,
as Mr. Wheelock, the owner, made his ap-
pearance to commence work, shot him de-
hberately through the heart. Mr.. Whee-
lock fell at once, and in FIVE minutes breath
ed his last. Martin Immediately hurried
off to another farm, where he met labor
er named Ainsworth, and, after exchanging
word or two with him, shot him also
The neighborhood became alarmed, and
Martin took to the woods. lie soon after
terwards, however, made his appearance in
the road, and was arrested On being ques-
toned why he had been shooting these
men, he replied, " "because they were mean
men," No cause can be assigned for the
horrid act. Martin had always been con-
sidered rather weak-minded, but has never
been supposed insane The affair is under
going thorough Investigation.

A Fearfm Accident from Fire Works.
"A very serious but we trust not fatal ac-
eident occurred at Michigan City on Sat
urday night (5th) about ten o'clock, while
celebrating the 4th A man while at
tempting to climb on the platform where
the fire works were let off hit the rod of a
rocket just as the fire was touched to it,
and poised it in horizontal direction. 1t
went into a crowd of people who were on
the piazza of the Waverly House, which
was ffty-six PAGES distant The rocket
struck a boy in the side of the face, en-
tirely carrying away one cheek The rod
became disengaged from the rocket and
passed on, hitting the wife of Dr. n. G.
Sherman in the side of the neck just above
the collar bone, and passed through so that
the end stuck out some six or eight inches.
Had 1t struck an inch further towards the
centre ef the neck it would have severed
the Jugular vein. Those present dared
not remove the rod until physician was
called, which was several minutes; when
1t was removed the wound was found not
to be as dangerous as was feared and it is
not supposed to be fatal-Detroit AdUerti-
ser.

THE HARRISBURG NOMINATIONS.

1t will be seen by the proceedings in an
other part of to-day's paper that the Peo-
pies Convention have put in nomination
two good men for Supreme Judge and Ca
nal Commissioner, and adopted platform
of broad and comprehensive principles,
growing out Of the present relation OF par
ties, which ought to be satisfactory to all
honestly opposed to the measures OF our
National Administration, whether Amerl-
can, Republican, old line whig, or demo-
crat. There is nothing in this movement,
SO far as we understand it, compromising
any one in the future, the call having been
issued in order to concentrate the opposition
to the general government and It's tyranni-
cal measures into a means for rebukIng its
extravaganza and political pollution.
John NJ. Read, the candidate for Judge
of the Supreme Court, the Daily News says,
sis among the most eminent members of the
Philadelphia Bar. He is distinguished for
his learning as we'll as his experience, and
in point of character is not excelled any
where. Originally, Mr.. Read was what is
called Democrat, and is understood to
have acted with that party until the Presi-
dental campaign Of 1856. Like many
other intelligent men who have had expe-
rience in that organization, he doubtless
found it to be guilty of all, and probably
much more of the corruption and iniquity
which is charged upon it, and as every hon
est man will do after being so convinced,
he LEFT Il lie did not, however, ON that
occasion, take the direction which we pur-
sued, but he at the same time earnestly and
vigorously opposed the election of James
Buchanan, as one Of those evils which
should never be allowed. Since that time
Mr. Read has continued-so far as he has
taken part in politics-to oppose and con-
denim the vile conduct of Mr. Buchanan's
Administration, and Locofocoism generally.
GAS Judge on the Bench of the Su-
preme Court, he will have no superior, and
as the contest for that Office is to be between
two gentlemen resident among us, both of
whom are well known % our citizens, there
will, without doubt, be such an expression
Of opinion as will teach the so-called Dem
ocratic party that candidate who is pre-
pared to stand on any platform is not fit to
be voted for
"The nominee of the Convention fo1
Canal Commissioner, William L. Frazer, is
resident of Fayette county. Until with
in a year he was Senator from the West
moreland and Fayette District, and as such
gave abundant evidence of his fitness to
occupy any position to which he may be
called by his fellow-citizens Mr.. F., in
politics, is an American, having formerly
acted with the Wing party"

THE ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH.-The sec
ond attempt to lay the Atlantic cable will
probably prove failure, the telegraph
feet having met with severe storms, and
narrowly escaping destruction. The fol-
lowing is from correspondence of the New
York Herald:
UNITED STATES FRIGATE NIAGARA, June q,
1851 send this by an American packet
ship, in the hope that it may reach you soon
er than if it went by mail First, let me say
that we have been at sea since the 10th inst,
seventeen days. nine of which were spent
in gale of the worst descripuon-so bad in
fact, that the Agamemnon was given up by
her Captain, large portion 100 miles, Of
her coil having shifted and moved about du-
ring the gale. Two of her men had their
arms and legs fractured A marine was lit.
orally frightened out of his wits, and is now
crazy. The scene on board was terrible
The Ealorous nearly lost her boats and the
Gorgon her masts. The Niagara escaped with,
out damage, and behaved in magnificent
style. She is q grand ship-nothing like her
on the ocean. We lost sight of the Aga
memnon during the gale. She was obliged to
run before it for thirty-six hours, and Capt.
Preedy gave her up. lie behaved splendldly,
it is said, with great coolness and selfposses-
sion.
We have made two splices, the first Of which
was accomplished yesterday about twelve
| O'Clock, and it broke when three miles had
been paid out from each ship. 1t broke on
the Niagara. The second splice was made
at five p. NJ. yesterday, and the continuity
/ gave way at quarter past one this morning.
/ We had out from each ship about forty five
miles The Agamemnon was, Of course, out
of sight; and we are now on the rendezvous
awaiting her appearance. We are in lati-
tude SO OF, longitude 80 80, the point selected
as the place where we we're to meet
/ don't think we will succeed We will
try again, and if we fail, 90 back to Queens
town to await orders from the Company.
Later accounts report the abandonment
Of the enterprise.

THE CONGRESSIONAL NOMINATION.

The Lewistown Democrat, Clinton Dem
ocrat, and number of other papers of that
stripe, don't like the idea of making Le-
compton or anti-Lecompton test at the
congressional election this fall OF course
not. No matter how gross wrong was
perpetrated by Allison White and others
in this State in efforts to saddle slavery on
the people of Kansas against their expressed
wishes, these patriotic gentlemen would no
doubt like to ride Mr. White into Office
again under the cry of democracy" 1t
is mere " difference of opinion" in their
view, which ought not for moment con-
fict with the prospects of the offce-hold-
ing gentlemen.
These resorts to "democWcy" have here
tofore been quite convenient, and in many
eases successful, but at the present time it
will we think be a rather difficult matter
to convince the people that Mr.. Buchanan,
who found twenty millions in the Treasury
on coming into Office and has already
spent that and thirty millions of borrowed
money in addition, is an economical Presi-
dent that his Kansas views and doings are
democratic or that tariff making pros
porous foreign workshops and hard times
here, or, to adopt favorite phrase, "the
rich richer and the poor poorer" Is either
democratic, Jacksonian, or Jefersonian. On
the contrary, all classes are beginning to feel
that there is something wrong in the ad-
ministration of oug public affairs, both as
regards the extension Of slavery and the
manufacturing interest, and have come to
the conclusion that the best way to let Mr..
/ Buchanan and his humble servants know
it, is to give him and them arebuke where
! they know it will be felt.

all accounts, will obtain much better crop

other years, when circumstances were more
