Starvation Prices In Virgir,o

The prices asked and obtained fer many
of the necessarieS of life in some parts of the
South are enormous, and must place them
beyond the reach of the poorer classes. 1t is
said that in Warrenton and Centerville
Virginia, split leather boots sell from twelve
to fifteen dollars per pair; salt is nine tc
twelve dollars per bushel; tea two dollars 9
pound bad whisky one dollar per pint. There
are no coffee, soap, dry goods, fodder OF
fences in town or country. There is a great
scarcity Of thread, needles and pins.

WHAT FRANCE WILL Do.-The Paris co,

respondent of the New York Times says:
The French Government seems to be lately
but an appendix TO that of England. So
firmly is the Emperor convinced that the
perpetuation of his dynasty depends on the
alliance with England, that we would not
now be surprised to see him outrage the
moral sentiments of his people and his own
as well, and recognize the unnatural slave
COnfederacy rather than break with Eng.
land. Let the people of the United States
be prepared for such an emergency; let them
fix it in their minds as a safe maxim by
which to shape their conduct, that for the
Emperor Napoleon the English alliance is a
vital necessity, and that rather than break
with England, he will stultify himself and
his people, and break with the United States
All the evidence now sustains this view OF
the case, and it would be safer to accept it as
a guide in the line of conduct to be adopted
than the opposite.

that he could not obtain settlement with
the proper functionaries for contract for
saddlery hardware, unless he paid to some
one of them large bonus. This he refused

he could get his claim allowed. We think

IT is very remarkable fact in the history
of this war, that those States and individuals
who were most conciIiatory aud moderate
before the breaking out of actual warfare,
have been the most energetic and effective
in defending the Union. The four border
States-Pennsylvania, Ohio Indiana and
lllinois-have furnished one half of all the
fighting men. 1t is by acts such as these,
and not by defamation, that patriotism is
evinced So with individuals. The men
who were most violent in their language
during the discussions which preceded the
breaking out of the war, seem now to be in
tent upon sowing divisions at the North,
instead of aiding in making one united effort
to restore the integrity of the Government.
Congress, instead of devoting itself to the
consideration of those measures for which
the country is waiting impatiently, seems to
be more anxious to stimulate ill.feeling in the
army, sow dissensions between the regulars
and the volunteers, and remove our capable
Generals to make way for others, whose only
recommendation is that they are ultraists on
certain political questions.

A TRIPLE MURDER BY SCHooL TEACHER.
| A passenger on the CovinRton and Lexington
Railroad last night, informs the Enquirer, Of
this city, that terrible tragedy took place
on the Billoe's Mill Road, near Harrodsburg,
Kentucky, on Saturday evening last. II
! appears that man named Edward Scott, a
school teacher ofmuch distinctionin that part
Of the State, had married widow Tilford,
daughter.in-lsw of the late Major Tilford, OF
Lexington, Kentucky, and on the evening
above named Scott entered the room where
the family were sitting, and without saying
single word, drew a revolver and fred at
Mr.. james Tilford, aged sixteen years, the
shot taking effect in the breast and causing
his death in few hours. Scott then fred
at Edward Tilford, lad eleven years of age,
killing him instantly. At this juncture the
children rushed screaming out Of the room.
As the family were flying in great conster-
nation, Scott fred at Miss Emma Tilford,
aged about eighteen years, and she fell bleed.
ing to the floor, and died the next morning.
A younger Miss Tilford was also shot in the
arm. Scott pursued the remainder of the
family, but they succeeded in eluding him,
and escaped from his fendish designs on
their lives. All the children were those be-
longing to his wife. Scott rsnsacked the
house from top to bottom, breaking and de-
stroying every thing in his reach, and fear
ful of being pursued by his neighbors, who
had assembled to protect the family, he ran
above stairs, fastened the trsp-door, and cut
loop-holes in the roof to ere upon his captors
when they approached. After much ma
reuvering he was felled by blow from a
neighbor, who came upon him in different
way from that which Scott anticipated. The
murderer was then safely secured and lodged
in jail to wait an examination. When taken,
Scott was found to be we'll armed with re-.
volvers, two double bsrreled shot guns, an
United States musket, hatchet and a
butcher.knife; SO that the horrible butchery
of the helpless and unoffending family must
have been coolly premeditated. The whole
neighborhood was in a great state of excite.
ment when our informant left; for, as there
is no known cause or provocation for the
horTid deed, and as Scott shows no symp
toms of insanity, and refuses to give any
reasons for his base conduct, the whole affair
| is wrapped in inexplicable mystery. Scott
was 20 have an examination on Monday.
