ASAp CASE OF CRIME, AND ITS CONFESSION.

n DAD CASE OF URINE, AND ITS CONFESSION.
Fhe Albany Journal relates a sad ease of
crime. In March last, 500 was stolentrom
the house of Joseph Blaekall, and young
male occupant at the time was arrested on
suspicion a few days ago. He earnestly,
however, protested his entire innocence
His wife was next arrested, and now comes
the sad story. The Journal says:
The young woman, who is but twenty
one years of age, and most respectfully con-
nected, appeared before the magistrate, with
a most interesting little babe, to voluntarily
confess that she had committed q high crime
She was advised that she might decline an
swering any and all questions, but she de-
clared she would tell the whole story. She
acSnowled that she took the money herself
out of the chest in which it was placed for
safe keeping; that she did not count it, but
put it in her bureau drawer; that she had
never told her husband that she had taken il,
and he did not know it; that sne had giveu
him money from time to time, but had told
him it came from her mother; that when
she moved she concealed the money in q So
fa-bottom chair, by placing it between the
hair covering and stuiling, and then mailing
the covering down again. She solemnly
declared that her husband was innocent of
the crime, and protested his entire ignorance
OF il.
AS she oohciuecd her voluntary state
ment, her father and father-in-law came
into the room, and the sccne at that instant
was terribly affecting, and would have
moved the most obdurate and fliuty heart
The father, realizing the fearful situation in
which his child was placed, gave loud
hysteric shout, and fell upon sofa, while
the daughter burst into paroxysm of tears,
and cried, "0l fatherl father father"-
She was removed from the room with her
child, and the father, after lapse of a few
minutes, became calm, but seemed as if he
had been stricken with deep gloom. The
crime and its results were SO apparent that
he could not restrain, his feelings, and he
gave way beneath the crushing weight that
seemed to be bearing down upon him. 1t
was truly heart-rending, and we trust we
may never again be witness to such scene.

BEs- A very absurd paragraph got into
our columns without observation on Satur-
day, that Robt. Fultons sister had been an
inmate for years, of an Almshouse in New
York State, aud that the inventor died n
poor man. 1t ought to be well known to
every reader, that Fulton and his heirs, and
their associates, enjoyed the exclusive mo-
nopoly of carrying passengers and freight
by steam on the Hudson river, up to the
year 1926, from which they derived large
reyenues-that Fulton, thoagiihe Had heavy
debts, held large amounts of property in
all parts of the country--among his lands
in the West was 700 valuable acres in Perry
comfy, the present site of Tell City, which
his heiD did not sell till 1874, more than
twenty-five years after his death. His
daughters were married to wealthy gentle
men in Philadelphia and New York, and
they were ladies as distinguished for their
intellectual and moral worth, as for thei.
social position, that such daughters would
permit their fathers sister to live or die in
an almshouse, is an incredible aud absurd
statement. EEr ...

ESS@ Occasional writes to the PhiIa-
delphia Press that there is probability of
an entire reconstruction of Mr.. Buchanan's $
cabinet. Secretary Floyd-one of the least
Objectionable men in it-has such poor
health he will probably resign. He is warm
ly attached to Governor Wise, which would
not make his resignation at all disagreeable
to the President. Jefferson Davis is spoken
of MS his successor; but as General Cass'
health is also poor, it is not improbable Mr..
Buchanan will take this opportunity to en-
tirely re-organize his cabinet. In the event
Of such a change, it is supposed that the
present ministers at London, Paris and St.
Petersburg, will be recalled, two of them
to make room for the retiring members of
the cabinet a-.rt

BB-PoTozzr, the new Sandman Premier,
is stronger liberalist than his predecessor,
Count Cavour. He was member of the
Sandman Cabinet some years ago, and was
obliged to resign his place on account of the
bitter hatred entertained against him by the
clerical party in the kingdom. He is now
actually under accommodation by the
Pope for heretical opinions. His selection
by King Emanuel is looked upon as a bold
defiance of Papal influence. If Sardinia
shall give countenance to the movements of
the liberal party throughout Italy, the peace
may be the beginning of events more i'm
portant than the war itself has evolved. A
letter from Europe in the New York Trib-
une says though the. war has ceased, and the
preliminaries Of peace been signed, the
troubles of Italy are only beginning, and
nobody sees how it will be possible to carry
the peace into execution, since the Venetian
province remains under Austria. The pos.
session of the four great quadrangular for
tresses will leave Sandman Lombartiy at
the mercy of Austria, and will perpetuate a
subject for constant agitation and jealousy.

the author of several important bills that
passed the last Legislature. The bills were
nrepared and drawn-if we are correctly in
formed-by Judge Suiith-and the entire
agency which the honorable Senator from
Warwick, Spencer and Perry, had in
these important matters, was, with the per-
mission of the Senate, to hand the docu-
ments to messenger to be carried to the
clerks table TO be read. 1t is a most out
rageous cheat to attempt to make the pub
lie believe that a man is the author of i'm
portant and valuable laws, who is grossly
incapable of drafting a simple personal ad-
dress to his plain and honest neighbors.
Such frauds destroy all distinctions of per-
Sonal merit and qualifications in the public
service; it elevates the greatest numbsculls
and ignoramuses to the highest political
honors.
1t is species of political decentralization
more dangerous than any that besets us, and
is as unjust as it is alarming to those who be-
lieve that the perpetuity of our Institutions
depend upon the intelligence of the people,
and the honesty and capacity of their agents.
Morally, there is no difference in.uttering
bogus address to deceive the people and get
the emoluments and honors of Office, than
there is in gaining other benefits by counter
feits and forgery.

DSS" The Enquirer attributes to us the
ignorant and stupid notion that expunging
the bank clause from the Constitution would
repeal the State Bank charter. No one
with common sense could conceive such an
idea. The change in the Constitution might
destroy the odious monopoly of the Bank,
and curtail, at some future day, its almost
absolute power, if the people should have
the luck TO discover some safe scheme of
banking that may competcNsith it. .. n

Tue Peace.

Napoleon has lost more glory and popu-
larity by his peace than he has gained by
his splendid victories. A letter from Paris
represents the feeling of the people to be
one of profound disappointment and discon-
tent. Their hope, as the war went on, rose
higher and higher. The brilliant victories
which crowned every step of the French
army reused the sentiment of military glo-
ry, always strong in a Frenchman's breast,
to the highest point of enthusiasm The
great mass of the people, resOlute and jeal-
Gus always in their love of freedom, exuited
to see France again leading the van of lib
eralsm in Europe, and looked for nothing
less than the utter abasement of Austria,
and the supremacy of substantial democracy
in the Italian States. Louis Napoleon. for
the first time, began to be positively and
thoroughly popular at home, and this popu-
larity increased just in proportion to the
degree at which he was distrusted and feared
abroad.
The French people were prepared to see
the war carried on to the bitter end. They
were ready for all the chances, and all the
sacrifices which itmight involve. They did
not as a general thing, credit the danger of
its extension to all Europe, but thenifthathad
been certain, l think they would not have
shrank much from it, but would have pre-
ferred such result to the peace that has
been concluded. Their hopes have been
blasted, their faith in the Emperor's cold,
resolute determination to accomplish what
ever he undertakes, has been shaken. Their
hatred of Austria, and their thirst for her
disgrace. have not been gratifed, and they
feel that their sentiments and wishes, which
seemed to weigh so much at the outset, have
been in the final adjustment utterly disre-
garded- This is the feeling of the day, yet
it is not quite certain that public sentiment
would have been SO strong in support of the
war under all contingencies, if the war had
been actually continued.
