Horrible Murder,

There was horrible murder commit.
ted in Appanoose county on last Friday
night, in which two persons lost their
lives. The murdered persons were a
a man nawed Frazier, and Mrs. King,
wife Of Allen King, Of Decatur county.
King and his wife have not lived toge,h-
er for some months, during which time
they have had several wsuits, and a
fight or two. King sued her for a d.
vorce, and notified her that on certain
days he would proceed to take deposi.
lions at Centerv'llc, and at Bloomfield.
Accordingly she, in company with Mr..
Frazier, were present when the deposit
tons were taken, aud on their way back
encamped for the night at Big Walnut,
eight miles west Of CcntervilIe, and that
night were murdered in the wagon in
which they were sleeping. They were
shot i've or six times each, and then
stabbed and cut 10 the face and body in
more than twenty places. One Of
traziers ears was cut of, aad both Of
the bodies were horribly mrt.lated.
There was nothing to indicate that they
bad ever moved from the position they
were in when the assassin came upop
them. She lay upon bis arm, perhaps
in tho same position they we're aleepinQ
when attacked.
1t is said there was . bottle found
close to the wagon, and that it 10 proba.
BILE chloroform was administered to
them. They were ont Of money, and
wanted to stay all night, but they we're
not admitted, and were forced to camp
out. At the last place they applied
King had stopped. After dark King
said he must 30 on TO Corydon that
night, and started, but he was not seen
here until the next day. o. Monday
morning he was arrested 1t his brother's
10 Decatur county, and is now on his
way to Ceuterville. :
We give the above statement n the
most reliable Of the many We have
heard. The Centerville paper viii
doubtless give . full and correct report
OF the matter, and we will publish it.

but oue version to the affair, and that
u. gross carelessness on the par, Of the
commanding officer. He had no right
Il be caught in such manner. Ills
own iaa!tention to the duties of his sta.
noo caused the loss Of thousands OF

Deausegard Apologizing for his Defeat
sensi.ively tender Of his Lost prestige,
Beauregard appears to be straiuing every
point to give his defeat at Pittsburg, the
appearance Of victory; but through all
li.braggart dispatches it is clear enough
that he foresees the general verdict that
he was badly whipped. The ''faIling
infection" from his telegraph to Rich
mond, to his flag Of truce note to Gen.
Grant, is significant. To the rebel
authorities he claims "completc VIC
tory" but to Gen. Grant he says:
sowing to the heavy reinforcements
you received, and to the exhausted con.
di,ion Of my men, / deem It prudent to
retire" Is this the tone in which to

rnE TUG OF WAR.

That important period in this great
camn.ion known ~ "tog Of waF' u
nov NJ hand. The scenes through
which VIC have been passing for the last
twelve months, were only preliminary
movements in the great struggle
mere skrmishes compared with what is
TO follow. We have hitherto been touch
Jog NJ the enemy along the border, W
have been palavering with the outer
circle, and bringing about the present
awful reality Of war. We have very
ably discussed the preliminaries, and
now we are settling down to the work
in hand. We have had border warfare
along the line Of operations, but now
the great majority Of our troops may be
said to be in the heart of the enemy's
county, and the tug Of war has actually
begun. The result remains to be seen,
though it is not difficult to determine
what it will be. The fighting will be
harder and the ground more stoutly
coutested by the rebels ~ our men get
farther South, but we fear not as to the
result. Our arms may not prove victo'
rious in euery engagement indeed, We
are fearful of immediate reverses in at
least one quarter, but ultimately, and
that within one year at least, the rebel
army will cease to exist, and the flag Of
the Union will wave triumphant over
all the land. But before that happy
day, we shall see such warfare ~ was
never surpassed in the history Of our
country, On the one side, it will be the
Il hit Of insane desperation, on the
other, Of unwaveriog determination to
support the Government. The loss Of
life will be feal full, but for the result we
doubt not.

cd, the Great Metropolis, is far superior
both in size and number of its inhabit-
ants. But such is not the case. ~ Jeddo,
the capital of Japan, is, without excep-
ton, the largest and most populous city
in the world. 1t contains the vast num-
Der Of one million five hundred thousand
dwellings, and five millions human beings.
Many Of the streets are nineteen Japez-
aries in length, which is equivalent to %
English miles. The commerce of Jeddo
far exceeds that of any other city in the
world, and the sea along It's shores is con-
stantly white with the sails of ships
Their vessels sail to the southern ports of
the empire, where they are loaded with
rice, tea, sea-coal, tobacco, silk, cotton and
tropical fruits, all of which find ready
market in the north; and then return
freighted with corn, salt, oil, isinglass, and
various other products of the north, which
have a market in the south.-N y
