The WASHINGTON TragodY.

There is moral in this case which ought
to impress itself upon the connunity, and
particularly the so-callcd fashionable com
munity, far and wide. 1t is only when
such scenes as these occur, that we realize
how far society has drifted from those sound
and stable maxims of morality, which arc
too often, nowadays, looked upon as stiff
and precise. The prevalence of the detes-
table doctrines of womens rights which
tend to dissolve the wife from her allegi-
ance to her husband, is the source of ten
thousand domestic SORROWS, which culni-
nate in divorce suits or domestic tragedies,
to the shame and disgrace of the age in
which we live.
Nothing is more common in /" fashiona-
BILE sNciety" than for wives to accompany
gentlemen. other than their husbands, to
theatres, balls, parties, excursions, &C., or
for gentlemen to call in the absence of hus-
bands upon their wives. Indeed, these are
common occurrences in " society,"" nova.
days, and yet they are pcrnicious customs
customs founded upon loose principles of
moral obligations, and hence can only tend
to produce domestic difficulties.
Nearly every divorce suit can be traced
to osuch causes--and they only GO to show
that We had actually bettcr 90 back to tho
primness of real purtanism, than TO allow
such laxity of manners and such freedom
of intercourse to break up the very safe
guards of society. Intl1is respect; VIC cop-
ceive Mr. Sickles to be greatly to blame.
lie has allowed his wife, il would seem,
free latitude to go out with Mr. Key, who
escorted her to the theatres, riding oxcurE
sons, &c. That such improprictics should
finally culminatc in her downfall is not tho
most surprising thing in the world, and
they will go far to take from Mr. Sicklos
that sympathy which otherwise would have
been quite universal.

1t is not fair to charge Washington with

Congress-.

This body before its adjournment passed
the most important appropriation bills The
tariff was not disturbed, and the postage law
remains Unchanged, so far asan increase in the
rates is concerned. An extra session is much
written about, but nothing definite seems to
be determined on.
The thirty-ffth Congress has just termina-
ted its labors, and many composing it retire
voluntarily with it from public life. JONI
LErcnER, the present democratic candidate
for Governor of Virginia. A. II. STEPHENS
of Georgia, and JAMES l.. Oar, Of this State
are of this class. Their ability, efficiency
and patriotic course in Congress have endeor
cd them to the good and virtuous of the en-
tire country. Their retirement will be Sc

it to the federal commonwealth.

of Col. ORR as public loss. But he has

Deaths from Poison.

We arc indebted to the thoughtful kind
ness of q friend at Bennettsyille, s. c., for
the following account of the circumstances
attending the sudden death of three citisens
of that town, on Thursday last. Our cor
respondent says:
BENNETTsvIbIE, Feb. -25, '60.--A
most shocking occurrence took place in
this town yesterday afternoon. Three men,
McSsis. John McCollum, John Graham
and Anuanias Graham, went into the gro
Gerry store of Mr.. John G. Terrell, of this
place, where each took drink of whiskcy.
They immediately complained of n ldizzi-
ness iu the head and weakness in the
limbs. Several physicians were called in,
but, notwithstanding every excrtion, they
arrived too late. The fatal poison (stryoh-
nine) had done its work, aud the two
hessrs. Gruhams died in about huff an
hour after drinking; Mr.. @McCollum sur
vived until about midnight A Jury of
Inquest was Immediately summoned, who
returned verdict that the BIossrs. Gra-
hams came to their Deaths by drinking
strychnine in whiskcy administered by. the
hand of John G. Terrell, the proprietor of
the grocery. Mr.. Terrell was Immediately
arrested and lodged in jail Mr.. McCoi-
lum died after the finding of the Jury in
the other two cases Mcssrs Graham arc
father and son, and resided some fveor six
miles from town. Mr.. MoCollum was q
book-kccpcr, and lives in town. All three
of the corpses are now lying in the store,
and the community arc very much excited"
We learn from another source that Mr.
Terrell is grandson of the elder Graham;
that he has previously borne a good char
acter, and was respected in that colununi-
ty. The attendant circumstances arc thus
stHtcu:
Mr.. Terrell had procured large stock
of goods by the false endorsement of the
names of his grandfather and uncle upon
his paper The paper had been sent from
bank in this city to their agent in Ben
nctsyille, who had communicated with Mr..
Graham. He denied all knowledge ofthc paper
and visited his grandson, in company with
his son. for the purpose of demonstrating
with him. What transpircd at the mcet-
ing is not fully known But it does not
appear that any alteration eDsucd. AS
Mcssrs. Graham werc about leaving, Mr..
Terrell directed his clerk, Mr.. McCollunl,
to go to certain shelf in the store and
bring bottle of excellent whiskey. This
was done, and Mcssrs. Graham partook of
it, and soon died, as our correspondent re-
latcs. The clerk, AIR. McCollun, took
private drink as he returned the bottle to
its shelf, and thus fell victim Mr.. Ter
rel denies all knowledge of the poison and
AYERS that he never in his life purchased
any. But, unfortunately for the truth Of
this statement, the books of an apothecary
in Bennettsvillc show charge against him
for stryohninc and ascnic, furnished six
months ago.
DrS, W. j. David and J. 4. Jennings,
of Bcunctsville, who conducted the lo,t
mortem examination, have brought the
stomaches of the deceased, the bottle of
whiskcy and package of suspected poison,
to this city for the purpose of analysis.
