SHOCKING MURDER IN PITTsFIELD.-Tbe
most deliberate and shocking murder which
has occurred in Berkshire for many years,
was perpetrated last Thursday evening at
about halt past six at the United States Hotel.
Jane Lucre:ia Collins, a woman OF about 50
years. who had been Tor several years laun-
dress at the hotel, was married some five
years ago to William Collins. Soon after do
nestle difficulties arose from the bad temper
OF the husband, especially when IN liquor,
although he WAS an ugly fellow at all times.
For a long time they had not lived together.
Two months ago he made an assault on his
wife, for which warrant was issued, but he
evaded the officers and has been hiding in the
region between Hudson and Chatham. He
was seen in PittSiield on the morning OF last
Thursday, and soon after dusk on the evening
OF that day went into the laundry where Mrs.
Collins was sitting with other female servants
of the house, and he deliberately stabbed her
twice in the stomach WITH an old bayonet one
wound penetrating o the depth OF five inches,
and either being mortal. John Sweet, the
Ostler OF the hotel, hearing the screams OF the
frightened women, made an attempt TO arrest
the murderer, but was thrown by him. Col
Inns then rushed up the back alley to North
street. where he was met by L. +. Sperry, Il
neighboring merchant, whom he stabbed Sc.
verely in the neck, the bayonet passing very
close 10 Il vital point. He was finally secured,
after IL desperate struggle, by Lyman w. Van
Loan Of the Western railroad, his captor es-
Gaping safely several strokes OF the weapon.
Collins was examined before the police court
on Friday, on charge OF assault with deadly
weapon, and committed to await the result
On Friday night, at about eleven o'clock, Mrs
Collins died OF internal bleeding, A coroner's
jury found veid dict of wiltul and deliberate
murder.

FOR LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR,
EDWARD DICKINSON, Of Amherst,
MR.. SUMMERS SPEECH.

Some OF the Boston newspapers, being zeal
Gus Tor such suspension OF anIagon. SINS us
will allow union aud harmony among loyal
mpn Of different views and parties, have fallen
rudely upon Charles Sumner. His speech at
the state convention is made the occasion OF
this crusade Some of them employ very
coarse terms while others use more decent
expressions, but fail 10 use honest criticism.
The Post thinks that Mr.. Sumner should be
''duck,d in a horse pond" The Courier sees
nothing in the convention but MIR. Sumner and
his speech finds in them that the republican
managers" are insincere, misrepresents the
speech and evidently desires to see Mr.. Sum
dennis the speech, and the Journal after char
acterizing it as the ''iIl-tmed eloquence Of
Mr.. Sumner" undertook the not very hUnora.
bic business of explaining and apolOgizing to
the Courier.
What a sacrilegious thing it is to speak
strongly against slavery 1t is eXeuSable to
curse amy other work OF the devil, but this
must be kept apart from The light of common
day, and carefully guarded against rude treat
ment. When Charles the First was destroy
ing England, in such style as provoked sist-
ance and led to civil war, the rescuers of the
nation were greatly embarrassed and weaken
ed by the influence OF a superstitious reverence
Tor his sacred majesty" 1t was deemed sac
religious TO wound the king or do him a per-
sonal harm i'll battle; and this policy contin
4 -. H.
cd by The powerful hand OF Crom'
we'll. lie shocked timid people by de
carng that he would not hesitate TO kill
the king i'll battle; and his famous "Ironsides"
were pledged TO shoot the king as readily as
they would shoot any other foe. There is
prevalent in this country similar feeling
towards slavery, which for SO many years has
oficiated as our sacred majesty, and that will
be a blessed day for the country, when we
exchange it Tor a tone OF feeling similar TO that
which Cromwell inspired.
There is no occasion for such treatment o
Mr. Sumner and his speech, and it is felt by
quiet lockers on as an attempt at prescription
little in keeping with The protested desire t.
suspend antagonisms and abstain from tOment
ing disturbances among loyal men. MI
Sumner uttered his thought frankly. Ii
told what can be constitutionally don
ngai,ss-sSisHiayerv by The power O
the government and expressed his belle
that, TO carry Africa into the wa
would make 1t more effective. He does no
demand this policy of the government, MOI
make any controversy in regard to it, but
merely expressed his views with his usual clio
quence and courtesy. Gen. Butler has spoken
substantially in the same way, but without
being attacked in the same fashion. We pre-
sumo there are not many loyal men who would
not actually decide finally that the salvation
OF the republic is paramount to any claim OF
slavery. That institution is at the bottom
of all our troubles, and deserves no mercy.

The Worcester people, in their great anxiety
to keep Dwight Foster ON the ticket united
with the Worcester railroad interest TO keep
Mr.. Chaplin off. They will now have the
pleasure Of remembering that il Mr. Chaplin
had been nominated for lieutenant governor,
Dwight Fosters place on the ticket would have
been secure.-.SpinQfeld Republican.
The only thing to be said of this statement
is that is mistake. But it seems to US some.
thing worse than mistake TO accuse either a
people or an interest" gratuitously. Our
eastern friends Insisted on having either Mr.
Rockingham or Judge Abbott on tile ticket,
and the result was the nomination OF Judge
Albeit. There was neither opportunity, oc
casion, or disposition to "unitc" with anybody
against Mr.. Chaplin.

AN IMPORTANT ARREsT.-Fo some time
past the interstate horse trade between Rhode
Island and Connecticut has been quite brisk
for a duh season, and many fine animals have
changed hands several times without the ac
quiescence of their rightful owners This
style of business activity has not been entire
ly satisfactory, even in war times, and we are
pleased 10 learn that the principal agent in the
movement is likely to suspend" Tor an indef
mite period Officer Billings Of this city, and
officer Flagg Of Worcester, yesterday arrested
one John Carpenter, of North Providence, to
whom various recent HOSTILE operations are
attributed. one OF the last of which was the
taking Of fine animal from the rotund, genial
and efficient postmaster OF Pawtucket. Mr..
Carpenter had SO far extended his business as
to make contracts Tor future delivery, the spe
Gifted animals to be stolen in time to fill the
contracts. Among the horses thus engaged
was a fine five years old grey stallion belong
ing to Robert Anthony; but when John came
for the animal the owner happened to be
awake, and John failed on taat contract. The
arrest was effected in Bolton, Mass, and the
prisoner was brought down this morning by
Mr.. Billings.

QUIET REIGNs.

"Quiet reigns" along the Potomac. 1t is
the calm that precedes the storm. The grand
army which has been forming, since the I'M
lucky 21st of July, on the banks of that his.
torie river, has not been gathered for peace
full campaign. The field may be transferred
from the place where the forces seem to be
gathering, and the time may be delayed; but
tile quiet of the hour is only the prelude to a
glorious and triumphant war Still, while we
are congratulatiug ourselves on the fine con-
dition of the army of the Potomac, the sad
fact remains apparent that the loyal states
have failed to meet the enemies of the govern
ment with the power which they promised
last April, and which the events of every
subsequent day and hour have demanded of
them While we have been waiting to fit
out regiments, gathering in recruits by labo-
sious solicitation, providing excellent equip
ments, expecting grand receptions and pre-
seniations, the rebel states have sent their
forces INFO the field with the energy of DIES.
peration, and have fought with the success,
if not with the dignity Of veterans. Some of
the western states, whose regiments are part
OF tie eastern army, which are now out by
the pcrilous edge of battle, still scold, not
without reason, because the opulent east,
which .has sacrificed not very much, and to
which the profitable fruits of the war are in
the main returning, has fallen so far short
of It's duty. 1t may be that we have all along
moderated the labor and sacrifice which it
would require 10 restore the country to its
old condition of unity and peace. 1t is GER
tain that we have failed, with the knowledge
we have had aud the light that has been
given us, to lend 10 the cause of the country
the help which its great need required.
Perhaps the states need to be farther dis
cipiDed by the severe culture of defeat. Per.
haps the glory Of the triumph which is pre-
destined may be reserved for brager hands
and hearts than ours. Ii it is so, the fault
and the shame rests with those who, having
the power TO assist in Fastening the destruc
ton Of the rebellion, refuse TO unite in the
great work OF the century,-of reassuring the
existence of this admirable republic, and con
quering an honorable and lasting peace.
