E-Ig" An Enghsh iron manufactures re-
Gently brought SUIT against an American
Iron Master AT Pittsburg, for countelfeiling
bis trade mark or stamp upon his IRON
The LOWmoor English iron enjoys II wide
reputation tor It's superior quality Graf,
Benedict & Co. have, for some time, placed
the same stamp upon some of the nAst quail
ties of their iron, to the injury of che Eng
lish plaintiffs, The case was submitted to a
Jury, who brought in verdict of S45a dam
ages, and an injunction viii be Issued for
bidding a further use of the stamp. The
English manufacturers arc constantly food
ing our own markets with base limitations of
every American product that gains de-
served reputaiien at home, and it has always
been the PC j, aud was formerly a COM
mercial maxim Of Great Britain, to break
down, by fraud upon her revenues, or by
destroying the lreputation'of the mannfac-
lures of q rival nation that came in:eompe-
titiou with English products, was COM
meudable Act OF British patriotism. The
verdict, under the circumstances, does credit
to the jury and the country.

APPLEToN's New AMERICAS CYCLopEpIA.
The fifth and sixth volumes of this inval-
liable work have made their appearance. =
The latter volumes fully sustain the reputa-
ton acquired by the first. We have SO often
commended the work to the attention OF our
citizens that il is superfiuous for US 10 say
more of its merits. We regret TO hear that
the work does not meet with the patronage
here that the value and importance of such a
work in every family ought to secure for it,
1t affords fountain of information, from
which youthful curiosity upon almost any
subject can be satisfied AS book of ref
erence to the old and young, it is worth its
cost every week to family where there are
enquiring minds, thirsty for knowledge.

n6PA most shocking murder was COM

MA moet shocking murder was COM
mitted on board of one of the steamships that
run between New Orleans and the ports Of
Texas. In the morning. on the passage from
Matagorda Bay to Galveston, ..the deck near
the after cabin door was discovered to be
stained and besmeared in several places with
large pools and clots OF blood, and in several
places bits of brains and hair were found
adhering to the bulk-head and rail, as if the
murder had been committed in the dark,
and the perpetrator of the deed had stag
gered against the panels with his victim in
his arms, before casting him oversoard.-
The vessel had not yet reached port, when
the discovery was made, and, therefore, the
murderer must still be on board, unies he
had finished his own evil career by leaping
into the Gull. The passengers were collect
ed in the cabin, and man by the name Of
VIM. W. Lyons, Of New York, who had TIA
ken passage at lndianola was missing. He
had no acquaintance on board except man
named Hill, whose clothes were found to be
sprinkled with blood, the sleeves of his shirt
having apparently been washed but a few
hours before, and whose embarrassed and
agitaied manner drew suspicion upon him
at once
Among the prisoners baggage were found
quite as convincing proofs of his guilt, as
that afforded by his blood-stained garments.
A hammer and chisel, a wet sponge stained
with blood; deed of land made over by
Stephen Lyons and wife to W. W. Lyons,
the deceased, the title papers to 800 acres
of Texas land, belonging to Lyons, and
sundry other pspers of the missing man
which Hill could not have honestly had in
his possession. 1t is supposed that Lyons
was asleep on a settee, having drank freely
with Hill on the previous evening, and that
the latter killed him with blows of ham,
mer, yet it seems strange that such a pro-
ceeding, together with the noise of casting
the body overheard, should have entirely e.
capped the attention of the watch and Of
other persons who should have been awake
within few feet of the spot The prisoner
was examined and committed at Galveston
where evidence was addrced sufficient to
convict him.

DEATH OF KIT CARSON. The last
overland mail brings intelligence of the
death of the celebrated pioneer and
explorer, Christopher Carson, Of Taos,
New Mexico, where he had been resi-
ding as Indian agent. Carson was a
native of Kentucky, having been born
in Madison county, at the close of 1909
His father, shortly after that period, re-
moved to Missouri, where Kit, when a
lad of Is, was apprenticed to saddler
occupying himself at that business
two years, at the end of which he
joined trapping expedition, and a
trapper he remained until his familiari
ty with the great far West renderedhim
invaluable as guide to explorers of
the Plains. For eight years he acted
as hunter at Bent's Fort When Col.
Fremont engaged in his EXPEDITION,
Carson accompanied him, and was ever
after his steadfast companion. In 1S47
he received the rank of lieutenant to
the rife corps, United States army
His latest and most remarkable exploit
on the Plains was enacted in 1858,
when he conducted drove of 5000
sheep safely to California.

A CASE OF SUSPECTED POISONING
AT CANTON, MASS. Our correspon-
dent Of Canton Mass, under date of
the 10th inst, gives the following ac-.
count of case in that town =
"UnusuaI interest was excited here
to-Gay in consequence of the exhuma-
tion of body of j. Shala, of this place,
for examination, by order of the Coro-
ner. The following is an outline of
the story : Some ten months since
james Shala, aged SO, married young
lady of IT. About seven weeks since
he was seized with illness, and died
the eighth day. Some dared to sug-
gest suspicious of poison, and stories
involving the character of the young
wife were in circulation. At last it
was decided to test the question of
poison by an autopsy. 1t was per-
formed to-day BY Or. Ainsworth, of
Boston, in presence of the Coroner and
Jury, and Drs. Holmes and Webster,
of Milton, and Dr. Perry, of Canton.
Portions of the viscera were sent to
Dr. Jackson, of Boston, for chemical
analysis. The Coroner has taken
measures to have the suspected party
before the Jury in one week. "-Boston

REMARKABLY RUMoR-A HUNDRED
MILES AN Hour. The Courier Des
Etats Unis, to whose columns we have
been recently indebted for several re-
markable rumors, publishes to-day the
following singular item -" Mr.. Mil
lard Fillmore, ex- President of the Uni
ted States, has just addressed letter
to M. Rollin Germain, asking him to
explain at public meeting the princi-
pies on which this ingenious inventor
believes he can build steamship which
will make hundred miles an hour, and
whose strength will resist all the fury
of the ocean and even the shock of a
collision with other vessels. When
this steamer is laden with passengers,
freight, provision, and coal for a voy-
age around the world she will only
draw, at the most, twenty-five feet OF
water, and-a singular fact indeed
the expense of the voyage will be only
about one-ffth what it would be in the
steamers now afoat. For thirteen
years M. Rollin Germain has been Sc
cretly studying his new system OF
mechanism and building, and eminent
engineers in the United States have
assured him that his discovery is des-
tined to make an epoch in the history
of steam navigation
