KNIGHTS OF THE GOLDEN CIRCLE.-The nev-
liable Gen. Geo. Beckley, X. g. e., turns up
in Louisville. He denies most energetcaly
that the organization of which he claims to be
the head aims to subvert the Government.
To use his own epmhatic language: ''The h.
@. C.. is an institution, even in Louisville,
and will be the very first to respond when a
call is made for the defenders of the State. 1t
has rendered 1000 troops TO South Carolina,
and will give her $4,000 if she needs them
and it can give the Federal Government 1885,
600 to fight foreign foe, but not one to fight
a Southern State. Now, sirs, hope l shall
be clearly understood. We look only TO The f.
mericanieatiom Of Merico; yet the defence OF
our own homes is paramount duty. If ever
there has been a movement set on foot to
settle forever the Slavery question, and bal
ance the political powers of the North and
South, and thereby perpetuate the Union, the
K. @. G. have made the movement"

Hon. TON CoRwIN ON THE CRITTESDES PROP
osIrIoY.-We quote from Mr.. Corwin's speech
in the House of Representatives, on the 2lst
JAM, reported in the Congressional Globe
ssBut it is proposed that we shall insert in
our propo sition to amend the Constitution that
this line Of 80 degrees 80 minutes shall grid the
globe, and that all South of it shall be open 10
slavery, and by this proposed amendment sla-
very is fixed there whether the people you ac
quire wish it there or not. Every one who
looks upon the map knows that it means the
conquest of Mexico, and all the small repuh-
lies in South America. One of our Mexican
acquisitions is now the very accursed cause OF
our ruin; and yet you covet another. You
have four millions negroes now, and you must
increase the number to sixty millions before
you can want room for slave labor. Fifty year 8
hence you will not be able to supply slaves G.
nough to meet the reasonable demand for slave
labor in the present slave States; yet you will
ponder and speculate upon your condition as
it may possibly be half century to come and
unless your dreams are accepted as truths now !,
and provision made for you for half a century
to come, you rush madly on TO the destruction
of yourselves, and not yourselves only, but
The final destruction and overthrow of the best
government known among men, and the ex-
tinction of the fairest hope yet presented to
the longing hearts of world.''

H oRRIBLE AFFAIR IN CARSON VALLEY.

correspondent of the Missouri Republican
writes from Denver city, on the 18th ult
gentleman, who has but recently arrived
in this city, called upon me, to-day, and gave
me an account of a horrible massacre on the
Surplus Cutoff. about fifty miles north of Salt
Lake City, during the latter part of last Aug
Cst. A party OF emigrants, on their way To
California, was attacked by party of men,
painted and dressed like Indians, who rushed
upon them IN the night took them by surprise,
and murdered seven of the party the others
escaped to train camped back from them, on
the road, distance of ten miles. The assas-
sins did not pursue them, they probably
knew of the other company, and were afraid
OF encountering them. Among those murder
ed was Mr.. Stevenson, formerly resident
of Lawrence, Kansas, and his niece, Miss
Lizzie Stevenson, a Young lady sixteen
eighteen years of age. Mrs. Stevenson, wife
of the murdered man begged of the sayages
not to kill them one of them replied in good
English, ssthat they were determined TO kill
them ALL" He then lcveled his rifle and
shot Mrs. S., which took effect in her right
hip. Supposing her to be dead they left her.
Catching up the infant son of woman they
had already killed, they struck its arms and
legs off with knife, and then threw the suf-
erer into the bushes by the waysde to die.
The next morning the bodies of seven persons
were found and properly inferred two of the
company were missing, whom they supposed
TO have been taken Oft as captiveS. Mrs. Ste
venson was found alive; her wounds were car
ed for, and at last accounts she was in Carson
Valley, kindly attended by the settlers there.
When found, the corpse of Miss Stevenson
bore unmistakabe evidence of having been
outraged by those bloody fends, under whose
cruel treatment she died. Her clothing had
been drawn up over her head and secure
ly fastened.

SEVERE CASE OF DIPTHERIA,-A young lady
died of this disease, rather suddenly, at
Youngstown, Trumbull county, Ohio, a few
days since. She had been ailing for three
weeks, and was regarded by her physician, as
out of danger. Just before her death, she
complained of severe pain in the region of
the breast. A post mortem examination de-
veloped the fact, that cavities of the heart
had been so filled up by that peculiar exuds-
ton, or membrane, caused by dipthera, that
the valves between the cavaties were closed
up. A few similar cases are reported by
Philadelphia physicians.

NORTHERN .ALABAHA.-The working men
of the town of Athens, Alabama, as we learn
from a letter written there on the 29th Janua-
ry, and published in the Nashville Democrat;
met in the Public Square on Saturday night,
and s'fred thirty-three guns for the Union,
and that the national flag still waves at the
Courthouse, its enemies at Montgomery and
disunionists every where notwithstanding"
They then paid visit to Gen. Houston, who
had just returned from Washington, where he
many years represented the Athens (Ala.)
district in Congress. The Nashville Demo
crdt's correspondent says: '.That General re-
'ceved the Union men in his usual happy
style. He hopes that this glorious Union
may still be preserved by the working Union
men. and that they may still work in the u
Mon, and find plenty of brave hearts and will
ling hands to help in every time of need. On
taking leave of the General, he was saluted
with a volley of musketry and three cheers
for the Union.

MoDEL.-A friend Of our, is in the habit
OF visiting very charming young lady about
three times week-perhaps oftener. 1t is
not positively known that there is engage
ment, but the gentleman is SO completely do
mesticated that he enters the house without
knocking, and if his lady-love is not in the
parlor, does not scruple to go up stairs in
search of her. The other day he went through
half dozen rooms without seeing anybody,
and at last came to the fair ones own cham
Der, but found the door locked.
care you in there, Mary q" inquired, he.
ssBless my heart, Charles, is il you! Go a.
way, you scamp, you can't get in ~ cried the
lady, in great trepidation.
81 must, Mary said the young gentleman,
giving the door shove, which threatened to
break away its fastenings.
'For Heavens sake, Charles!'' scream ed
the lady, now in the last stage of terror, Ego
away this instant, I'm-I'm-"
ssYou're what 20
ssPm q model ~ shrieked the lady; and the
gentleman left, laughing boisterously.

SELF SACRIFICING CoLLEoToR.-A jobbing
house in Philadelphia employed a lawyer in
North Carolina TO collect a debt of $50. In the
course of time they received from him the re-
mittance of SS5. Having been unable to COL
lect the debt in the regular way, he had
sboarded it out" In concluding his letter to
the firm, he wrote ssI have retained So for
my services, though the commission is but Sd
so. 1 have only to say that if you knew the
abdominal anguish l have suffered while board
ing out your bill, you wouldn't begrudge the
extra half dolar.''

THE New LoAx.-The announcement that
capitalists in New York and Boston would re-
fuse to subscribe to the new bonds unless a
compromise was made, has had exactly the op-
posite effect from what was intended. That
sort of coercion will not be endured, especial
ly when every body knows they must preserve
the public credit in order to give any value
to sixty-fve millions of loans and Treasury
Notes now outstanding, and prevent greater
deraD pements in business

The incorporation of the Tariff principle in
the Constitution of the Southern Confederacy
will destroy it in the estimation OF some of Its
best friends Free trade and African slave
trade were the doctrines upon which it started
out, and when they are ignored, the whole
scheme is an abortion. The managers were
afraid of direct taxation, and therefore are
surrendering their vital principles.

MISCELLANEOUS READING.
CRIME IN .INDIANA.

10 the winter of 1859 physician named
Rowe, temporarily located in Oxford, Benton
county, twenty miles west of this city, and
boarded at hotel in that place kept by Mr..
George King. A short time after bis arri-
val there be mysteriously disappeared, under
circumstances which led to the belief that he
had been murdered ny persons living in Ok
ford. and the bod y buried in one Of the many
swamps IN the vicinity. Officers have been
diligently searching for evidence to fix the
crime on the suspected parties, but up to
Thursday last all their efforts had been in
vain.
On Wednesday the Attica Anti-horse Thief
Company held meeting and resolved to
make number Of arrests on suspicion. Ac-
cordingly, on Thursday the company, about
fifty in number, repaired to Oxford, arrested
George W. King, the hotel keeper with whom
DR.. Rowe had boarded, and person pamed
james Rogers. King became greatly alarm
ed upon his arrest, and was soon prevailed
on to make confession, in which he fully
implicated himself, Rogers, and man named
Haggett, who has since removed from Oxford
to Middleport Illinois.
King stated that about two months after
DR.. Rowe began boarding with him, he learn
ed that he was possessed of upwards of ST.
900 in cash. A scheme was Immediately
concocted between the parties named to rob
the doctor of his money. After several un-
successful attempts to rob him without COM
hitting the crime of murder, they determined
upon the latter course. Accordingly, Rog-
ers and Haggett were stationed on the road
side, in secluded locality, between Oxford
and this city, a short distance from the for.
mer place, about dark, on the night of the
murder. King ordered his carriage brought
out, remarking that he had business in this
city that night which demanded his presence
here. A half hour after leaving home he
returned in great haste, and announced to
DR.. Rowe that person was lying dangerously
ill at a farmhouse few miles of, and that
ne had consented TO drive back and request
his immediate attendance at the place named.
King then apparently resumed his journey
to this city, but only drove out to the local..
ty where his accomp!ices were stationed.
After placing his horse and carriage out of
the way, the three men waited the arrival of
the Doctor, who soon came along, when they
stopped him, took him from his horse. and IL
short distance from the road they deliberately
shot and buried him. The Williams thus se-
cured the coveted So, 900, which was divided
between them. A-deputation of the Reg
ulators is en route for Mlddleport to arrest
the man Haggett. The accused are all mar.
ried men. The conviction of these men will
doubtless throw light upon another tragedy
which occurred about the same time in that
locality. A mai! carrier turned up missing
on the same road 10 a manner similarly mys.
