beginning lin regions most favorably dis
posed for its development The facts in re-
lation to the number Of cases on Harris

that post, has died Of cholera, and an able
corps Of physicians has been sent to that
island, and also to Governors Island"

A new naturalization law has been pro-

The large American emigrant ship Mon
arch Of the Seas, which sailed from Liver
pool on the 10Th of March last for New
York, has been four months at sea, and
fears are entertained that some direful dis
aster has oyertaken her, and that she has
gone to the bottom with all on board. She
had six hundred and seventy four passen-
gers and crew Of fifty-four men, including
officers. The vessel was valued at 1875, 900
and is fully insured.

highest Importance. After series of brill

decisive battle was fought on the Sd, near
Sudowa, village Of Bohemia, in which the
entire grand armies on both sides were en-

Content with her semblance of success in
Venetia, Austria has accepted the sugges-
ton Of Napoleon, and proposed to cede
Venetia to France, and accept Napoleon 8
mediation, which the latter has accordingly
undertaken, and has already communicated
with the Kings of Prussia and Italy, pro-
posing an armistice. The cession of Vene-
tia is made in reality to Italy, although it is
done though France, in order to avoid the
appearance of surrender, ON the part OF
Austria, under compulsion. to an armed
enemy. It is stated that, in London COM
mercial circles, peace is regarded as virtu-
ally concluded. Congress of Powers is
considered probable, when France will pro-
pose general disarmament. Since the
days of the first Napoleon, history shows
no grand campaign SO brilliant, and SO i'm

Prussia has opened, and, it seems probable,

The Child Murder.


Some time since we published an account
of preacher, at Medina, N Y, who whip
ped his child to death. in the attempt to
g break its will A lady, writing from
Medina to her son in Goshen, draws the
following grapic picture Of the horrible
atrocity:
g You knew Joel Lindsey, I believe :
well, week ago last Monday night he
whipped his little boy to death, because he
would not say his prayers. He was little
child, between three and four years old, his
mother died near three years ago, and Joel
married Frank Mobiles last spring. l think
you knew her folks, they live out west Of
Ferbys. She went up stairs to put the lit
tie fellow to bed, and he refused TO say his
prayers, so she whipped him some, and
went down and Joel went up, and whipped
him two hours and half, and then carried
him down and told his wife he wished she
would get up, for Johnny acted very strange,
and he did MT know what was the matter
with him; well, he died right away. Gil
berts wife went over and laid the little one
out. Gilbert went to Millville next FORE
noon, and told that Joels child was dead,
aud he did not know what killed the child,
but that Joel had been correcting it. The
neighbors went in and thought they acted
strange Wednesday morning he was
to be buried. In the morning, when they
were all ready, 70 their great surprise the
Coroner made his appearance, to hold an
inquest over the body. He had jury Of
fifteen men. They were six hours making
the examination. They say they never saw
such sight before, and asked Joel what
he whipped the child with lie said shin
gle, sometimes with the fiat side and then
with the edge; but, oh. such sight his
little fingers were all in strings, the nails
gone, and the bones broken, his legs all a
jelly, and the bottom Of his feet blstered.
and pieces of flesh gone out of them, his
shoulders and neck, and the sides of his
head all black. They looked around and
found tub full Of bloody clothes to soak !;
and the verdict was murder.
