Horrible Tragedy.

One of the most horrible domestic tr2g-
edies which il has ever been our province
TO record occurred 8 few DAYS since in Law
n county. nesr the line Of the Pitts
burg, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railroad.
1t appears that in the early part OF the
present month q soldier belonging TO the
lG0th Regiment, having re enlisted for
the war. obtained & thirty DAYS furiough,
and returned TO his homo in Lawrence
county, about four miles from Darlington.
and almost adjoining the Beaver county
line. The man was married, and during
his absence his wife contracted an ac-
1uaintance with a scamp in The neigbbor-
hood, which eliminated in a criminal in
timacy between the parties. or all this.
however, the husband was in complete ig-
norance, and upon his return home he
took up his abode with his wife, uncon-
concious of her infdelity or of the plot
which was even then maturing against
bis life. 1t appears that soon after his sr.
rival it was agreed between the woman
and her paramour that he should be put
out of the way, and one night, while the
unsuspecting man lay asleep in his bed.
the guilty pair approached him, and slip
ping a moose, which they had previously

other end over n beam which extended
across the dwelling, and pulling on it
with eli their might, they swung the
wretched man off the bed, and in = mo
ment almost had him in such a position
that resistance on his part became impos-
sible.
They had their victim now completely
in their power, and the deliberation which
marked their after movements shows a
degree of coldbloodeduess unequalled al
most in the annals of crime. Finding
that death did not take place as soon as
they expected, they fastened the rope,
which up to this time they had heldover
the beam. the body of their victim with
ing in his death agony from the other end
to Il peg in the wall, and leaving the mis-
cradle man to his fate, passed out OF the
house. After remaining outside long
enough for s~trsngulation to take place,
they again entered the house, and tax
ing down the now ~lifeless remains of the
murdered man, carried them TO 8 coal
bank in the vicinity, inside which they
concealed them. The next day IL was no
ticed that the wcman's paramour wa:
rather flush of funds, and this, coupled
with the fact that the soldier was miss
ing. induced those who knew the guilty
relations existing between the woman anC
the man to suspect that all was not right
so an inquiry was instituted through
which the entire tragedy was brought t.
! light. The woman, struck with fear Of
remorse. made a confession of the whole
affair, duplicating her paramour as tn,
principal in the murder, and both he anC

Devoted to his Race.

Many q noble heart pulsates under a
black skin. Among the enlistments of
colored men on Wednesday was a colored
man verging toward old age, named
John White. He is q pious man, whose
venerstion and deeply religious cast OF
mind earned for him the title Of deacon
even before he became one. He lived in
the Seventh ward, we believe, the head Of
"a family OF six sons. Two by two they
left him for the army. 1t was hard for
him 10 part with the last, but they wen;
with a parental blessing as sweet and
noly as rested upon the heads of any vol
unteers in the service. Time passed on,
and the good deacon grew lonely. Hi,
heart was with his children, and with the
cause for which be gave them from his
hearthstone. What remained for him to
do? Just what he did.
He walked up to a recruiting officer for
colored troops, took the oath and theuni-
form. Yesterday he went out TO the
camp. his mind at last contented. The
seven Whites, we take it, though their
color is black. viii be a match for any
seven traitors in the field. Any one OF
these boys could drive a musket through
q rebel, and pin him to q tree.-PkiASa-

The WAY 10 do Il.

The liquor sellers at Niagara Falls have
recently heard another kind Of thunder
than their cataract produces. The Su-
preme Court being in session at Lockport,
some shrewd Son of Temperance sent
down to the Commissioned Of Licenses
the names of all the unlicensed grogger-
les, with a list of the most respectable tip
piers in town, who were accustomed 10
refresh themselves with daily potasions
st these pretty places Of resort.
The consequence was" that these gem
tlemenimbibers were notified BY subpoena
that their presence was desired at court,
snd one fine morning a long procession Of
our worthy friends was seen making their
way to the cars for Loekport, without
scarcely knowing the why and wherefore.
Once there they were desired by the
foreman of the Grand Jury to state wheth-
er they were acustomed q take 2 drop
now and then, and what particular bar,
saloon, or groggery they were partial 70 in
their pleasant practice.
There was no way but TO answer, and
the foreman of the Jury soon had a fine
list of drinks set down against every
unlicensed grog shop, which be followed
up with a TO each and every
proprietor to appear and answer before
his Honor. T%hereupon there was aAoth-
er goodly procession to Lockport, and &
melancholy return home, for the Judge
fined every mothers son Of them a round

double it next time, and send the often
ders to prison on the third complaint

sherman's Movements.

NEW 1Ohh, 1ldEcn y.
The Tribune's special from Washington,
says a dispatch dated Memphis, LIST, re-
ceived this evening, gives some new and
interesting details of Sherman's move
ments.
The dispatch says, after having reached
Meridian, Sherman sent out scouts to feel
the ground and ascertain whether Logan,
who had started from Florence to meet
him and Smith and Grierson, on whose
cavalry he relied TO prosecute his march
on Selma, were advancing.
Three days elapsed before he received
any answer, but as his army had but linn
tied r~ations, he by q rapid movement,
which Disconnected the rebels, suddenly
turned towards Aberdeen and Columbus,
in the richest part of Eastern Mississippi,
where his army was soon to find an abund-
snce OF provisions.
By this movement he turned his back
on Selma and Mobile, and marched to-
ward Logan, who had already advanced
10 meet him, and by an audacious stroke
of strategy placed himself at a distance
of about 100 miles from johnson, whose
flank is now nenaced by his advance.
The dispatch says the Iumor of the at.
tack on Mobile and Selma, by Sherman,
was simply meant to divert public atten-
ton from the real object of the expedi.
ton, which aims at the invasion of Geor-
gia somewhere between Trenton and La
tayette-
CAIRO, March 5.
A private letter received in Memphis
from Vicksburg, February 9th, says the

main for the present.
Sherman, with the remainder Of his
force, is also en- route for the same place.
All the railroads on Sherman's route
we're utterly destroyed.
