The Dinsnore Murder.

FulI Particulars Of the Fiendish Act
Arrest Of One Of the Perpcfrafors-
His Detection Due to the Loss Of the

the Murdered Mans Wife. 90
Special Correspondence Pittsburg Commercial
WASHINGTON, Pa, Dec. 5.
It becomes my sorrowful duty to send
Won an account of one of the most fiend-
ish murders in the annals of crime.
Last night (Dec. 4) Robert W. Dins-
more, a "well to do" farmer residing
about five miles northwest of this place,
in Hopewell township, was murdered
before the very eyes Of his wife and
daughter. He had been to town and
had been trying to get a $1,000 bond
changed, and he returned home late in
the evening. About 10 o'clock 2. NJ,
while he sat reading a newspaper, and
his wife was getting ready for bed, he
heard rap at the door. He asked who
was there. A voice replied that Mr..
Miller, (his next neighbOr), was very
sick. When Mr.. Dinsmore heard that,
he went to the door and found two men
there. One asked him if he, would
let one Oh stuc DOyo ~ uo""
He replied that they must be mistaken,
that he had no boys. They then sprang
into the honse and caught hold of him,
one of them saying, "you are the man
we want" And then commenced q
deadly combat, which ended in Mr..
Dinsmore being shot, and cut in the
breast in such q manner that death en-
sued in about three hours. Though he
was wounded to the death, he fought
on. and the robbers were compelled to
knock him down with a chair. One OF
the daughters sleeping up stairs, hear
ing the noise, came down, and her little
sister making noise up stairs SO scared
the villains that they fled without get
ting any plumber. Mrs. Dinsmore was
compelled to Do al eye witness to the
horrible tragedy, being unable to get
away through fright. As soon as the
murderers had fed, Mrs. DinsmOre, with
the assistance of her two daughters,
(they being the only persons about the
house, closed and locked the doors,
fearing that they might come back and
kill them all. After about one and a
half hours had elapsed, one Of the
daughters went and aroused the neigh
bors, who arrived just in time to see

Rud;caI;sr. in Tennessee

The radicals in the Tennessee House
of Delegates have succeeded in passing
q Franchise bill" which is similar in
many respects to our registration act.
1t was adopted by means Of fraud and
is in violation of the constitution of the
State. The men who compose the radi-
cal majority in the Tennessee Legisla
ture bear family likeness " to some OF
their brethren in this State, if the fol
lowing picture drawn by the Nashville
Banner be correct.
''The people of Tennessee have reason
to entreat the authorities Of the United
States for protection against the ruffians
who make up majority of the General
Assembly. Animated by the most
hideous spirit Of revenge, spurred on by
an uuexampled lust for power, and re-
strained neither by justice nor decency,
their action OF yesterday was but the
beginning of riot of misrule, sacrificing
every interest of the State to its own
morbid passion, violating every primer
pie of truth for its own selfish ends, aud
setting ut naught at once the founda
tions of government and freedom IN Que
monstrous and overreaching grasp for
supreme, perpetual autocracy The
men composing this mob are as destl-
tute of responsibility. as their acts are
destitute OF law; and the whole line and
letter of their operations are hostile to
liberty and humanity They represent
nothing hut their own bad passions
They are not any more the friends ofthe
freedmen than of the Union, except they
can make them the slaves of their de-
signs They are members of no party
they endorse no creed. They pretend
to be radicals, when in reality, they put
aside every item even of the radical
faith. They are simply liars and scoun,
dreis, who ought to be in hell or the pen
itentiary,. instead of making laws to
bride noble State and dofrand a
peaceful, upright and free peopls Of their
rights

doubts as to where the money which h; d

dreaded. After the first stride, the
other steps on the road to despotism
will be taken with rapidly increasing
ease and speed. We must avoid the
beginning of this downward course II
we wish to retain either the name or the
privileges of freemen. An abridgement
of the rights of any portion OF our cltl'
zens if full of danger to the liberty OF all.
Are the people of West Virginia Will
ling to incur this danger in order that
the radical party may retain its power !!
Are they willing to destroy the vital
principle of republicanism in order that
men who have shown themselves I'M
willing to govern Alright may still have
pover to oppress9 Are they willing to
take this first and most dangerous stride
on the highway to despotism, and de
clare that, in this State, the minority
shall always rule
five consent to the disfranchisement
OF one class OF our Ci'i~e"S'
Embellishments will speedily follow
Pretexts Just as specious as those now
employed by the radicals will be found
or made, and no mans liberty will be
safe. Thespirit Of radicalism is simply
an Unsuitable thirst for power. Every
concession is followed by fresh demands.
It is more exacting in this State to-day
than it was one year ago, and next year
it will ask more than it does now. Our
onlT safety consists in crushing the
monster at once and declaring that the
republican principle shall remain invio'
late, the liberties Of the people shall be
preserved.
