The Cable.
TRINITY BAY, Aug. IA.

TRINITY BAY, Aug. A.
To the Directors of the atlantic Telegraph Co., ~ Y
The cause of our not transmitting and re-
ceiving intelligence through, is that the in
struments require great deal of care and
this as fast as possible. You should not look
upon the cable as an ordinary short telegraph
line that can be worked through directly
The cable has been successfully laid, and tel
egraphic signals are passed through it at our
pleasure, but we have encountered little
difficulty which it requires time and many
experiments to entirely overcome, but we see
no reason to doubt that We shall be able in a
few days to surmount all difficulties.
will send you the earliest information of
the probable time when the Queens message
may be expected.
(Signed) De SANLEY.
NOTE.-ln addition to the above, We have
seen private dispatch from a reliable gentle
man at st. Johns, who is in position to OBJ
tain the earliest and most correct official in
telligence concerning the cable, which states
that the ii struments at Trinity Bay record
with good degree of success, the communi-
cations from the electricians at the Valentia
Office, but that owing to some unexpected
cause it has been impossible to send that or
any other Intelligence to the operators at a.
lentia. This is state of things which often
occurs on a land line, that one OF which can
receive correctly from a distant operator, and
yet be unable to send a word in return, and
The difficulty sooner or later is found to be in
the battery its connections and the nstru-
ments, and there is no reason to doubt that
the present difficulty in working the cable
will, as soon as the electricians can compare
notes, be entirely overcome.

HOrrid Murder.
GOSHEN, Orange Co., N. Y, Aug. l

GOSHEN, Orange Co., N. Y, Aug. Ia.
Last night about halfpast nine o'clock, our
village was alarmed by the intelligence that a
most diabolical double murder had been COM
mittcd at the house Of Cbas. Reeve, in IIamp-
ton. being about two miles from here on the
Newburg road Some 20 of our citizens re-
pared to the scene, where they learned the
following particulars:
Mr.. Reeve and his family were absent from
home leaving their house in the charge of
three servants, named VIM. Saunders, Peter
Shoerich and Margaret Vraly. 1t seems that
Peter and Margaret were to be married next
week, and they had been passing the evening
together in the room of the latter. About
s o'clock, just as he was leaving MarSaret's
room, Peter was met at the door by William,
who deliberately and without word passing
between either, shot him through the right
nipple. Peter turned back, opened the door
through which he had passed, and fell dead
across the threshold. The murderer then
rushed into the roc IN, over the dead body of
his first victim, and shot Margaret through
the left breast, the ball passing out just be-
low the shoulder blade. She turned and
jumped out of the open window to the ground
some twenty feet or more-and managed
to crawl through the garden and orchard,
nearly a quarter of mile, to the house of MIR.
Case, who Immediately gave the alarm.
The murderer has not been arrested or even
seen since, but the whole country around is
searching for him. The woman is still alive,
but cannot survive but a short time.

A Romance In Real Life.

In the Philadelphia Ledger of the 81 inst,
We find tho notice .of the death of an old
and honored resident of that city, about
whom the following romantic story is
told:
His father was married privately and un-
der circumstances that gave offence to the
family, and the wife was not acknowledged.
Soon after giving birth to son, the child
was placed in charge of woman who had
an infant about the same age. In little
while word was sent to the mother that her
babe had died, and it was mourned over by
her as was natural in a mother for the loss of
her first-born. After lapse of many years,
the female in whose charge the infant had
been placed, sent for her, and was found in a
dying condition. She informed the mother
that she had practiced a deep deception upon
her; that it was her own child that had died
while her boy had lived and grown to man
hood. This would not have been credited but
for the circumstances under which it was told.
and the solemn manner in which it was de-
clared. This young man was soon informed
Of it, and took legal measures to establish his
fathers estate, he having died meanwhile.
The grandfather for while treated him as
an impostor but his aunts instituted au in
quiry, and were satisfied with the truth of
the story. Tho proofs adduced in the course
If the legal investigation were such as to sat-
sfy the grandfather, and the young man was
received into the family, and occupied the po-
sltion his relation entitled him to. Before
this, change of name had become nccessa-
ty, for he had borne the name of the female
who had been known from early childhood as
his mother. The large estate he inhereted be
leaves to wife and an only child.

Fort LEAvENwoRTH, August .

To The Editors Of the Mnnesotian:
MEssRs. EDIroRs l drop my stick ano
rule, this morning, to announce, $50 lar Us
heard from,) the solemn protest OF the people
of this Territory upon the grand finale oil
Popular Sovereignty, called the English BILL
The election passed off quietly throughout
the Territory, without any accessions from
Missouri they having enough to attend to AT
home, as their election came off the same
day.
The vote in Leavcnworth City stood ior
the Lecompton Constitution, lSS; against
l6lO, and the majority against it III the I o"h-
ty reaches Lay.
The majority against the Lecompton Con-
stitution. can be set down at from II to
$4,000 in round numbers throughout the
Territory. The greatest enthusiasm prevail
ed. and men of all parties wheeled into the
ranks, except the National Democracy. True
to their instincts. they shouldered LecomptOn,
and at Kikapoo, where they had majority,
they assaiied the courier with rocks and other
missiles, and he had to put spurs to his horse,
and flee for his life. He arrived in Leaven-
worth safe with the returns, though some
what bruised and covered with blood. But
Border Democracy does not crop out now as
proiuse as in 50 and SO, and the palmy days
of Calhoun regency are on the wane.
Thus the Free State party, mainly Repub-
leans have shown to the world that the
principle of Freedom was preferable to the
bastard ghost of popular sovereignty substl-
tuted in its place. The allied coho OF the
Administrat on have been covered with defeat
and their servile hrelings are silent for very
shame and rage.
NJ. j. Parrot, Delegate to Congress, has
done a host of hard work for the Republican
party, and is deservedly popular. Elected as
an independent man, he is heart and soul a
Republican God bless the Republican par
ty. If it had not been for that party, Kansas
would not have redeeming trait left.
A negro has been advertised for sale on
execution in this city, on the 2lst inst. by
a Republican Sheriff; he did not like it but
the law is imperative, and it must be done.
But he will not be sold. The people are on
the move. This smacks of Popular Sover-
eighty.

low as to permit standing water, gives every
evidence of a much larger crop than has ever
been raised in Minnesota. Potatoes, too, will
produce an unusually heavy YIELD"
DoDGE CoUNrY.-We find the following in
last weeks Wasioja Gazette:
"Our farmers are now reaping their winter
wheat. 1t is much damaged by rust, wet
weather and sunshine. The spring wheat
which is not yet ripe promises much better,
but it is all more or less injured. Those who
have had experience in cultivating new soil
say that wet weather and hot sunshine has a
tendency to overhead new ground, which is
stronger than old, and to scald the roots Of
the wheat"
WABAsHAw COUNrY.-Mr. Lockwood, of
Florence, informs us that he has q second
crop of corn now growing finely, and with
the prospect, in case of a favorable tall, of its
maturity. He has matured one crop of corn
this season, planted some of it, and expects
to see that mature bt fore frost f! Minnesota

TRINITY Bay, Aug. 13.
All the arrangements for working the cable,
are confided to the assistants Of Prof. White
house, the electrician in-chief of the Atlantic
Telegraph Company, and as all their opera
tons are conducted privately, they decline to
give any information beyond the fact that
signals are successfully passing through the
cable from the Telegraph office here and the
Telegraph office at Valentia. All rumols
representing a different state of things, are
unlounded, although it is not known except
to the electricians Immediately connected
with the cable, what progress is being made
in working Prof Warehouses; recording in
struments. We hazard little in saying that
it has been as yet impossible to work them
successfully. No doubt, however, is enter
tanned but that the Hughes invention, when
ready, will overcome all difficulties.

He was suffering under great depression Of
spirits from private troubles. unconnected
with the young lady in question, towar ds
whom he stood only in the relation Of a friend
The depression was manifested in marked
degree, and, in connection with some other
little circumstances, was easily construed by
