We judge from the following, that the
Government are in possession Of some
knowledge of the movements of parties
who are intending to organize bands Of

the borders, and do any amount of mis-
chievous deeds, in contravention of the
neutrality laws. 1t is well for our Gov
ernment to move in time, and we trust
the utmost vigilance will be kept up, and
that all marauding and unlawful bands oi
men, who may attempt to cross into Mex.
leo or elsewhere, will be gobbled up, and
that a stop will be put to all unlawful pro-
ceedings Of this nature on the part Of
these restless Adventures.

Examination of Henry Williams

Examination of Henry Williams
-Attempt TO Lynch Him.
AscurSEYvILLR, VI, July 29.-Henry
Williams, the fendish murderer Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Gowing, has undergone his examina-
tion, and, after barely escaping lynching
by q mob, 4 now safely confined in the
Rutland jail TO await his trial for murder
in the first degree. AT the conclusion oi
the examination, when the sheriff took the
prisoner from the hall, the excitement
among the crowd was intense, and there
was q general determination TO lynch him.
The officer, having succeeded in getting the
prisoner into the Ascutnett House, waited
nearly two hours for the exasperated crowd
to disperse; but finding they would not, he
obtained assistance and started to convey
the prisoner to the State prison, in Wind.
sor, to lodge him there for the night.
While going down the stairs Of the hotel
the crowd made O rush for the criminal
and the officer, but his assistants succeeded
in placing him in q team. After he was
In one OF the prominent citizens of the
town, relative Of the murdered victims,
threw rope with slip-noose over his
head but one Of the officers succeeded in
preventing its catching the neck Of the
murderer.
The team then started, followed by the
crowd, uttering cries Of Hang him,
Lynch the scoundrel," &c. The whip
was applied to the horses, and the officers
and murderer were soon out Of harms
way. The testimony against the prisoner
is strong, and there has as yet been moth.
ing offered to show that he Is other than
guilty Of the terrible double murder
charged upon him.
Miss Ella A. Gowing, q thirteen year
old daughter Of the murdered parties gave
in very clear statement OF the murder.
She said she heard some one call to her
father, who asked who was there. The
man replied that 1t was Mr.. Hitchcock,
and that the COWS were in the cornfeld.
Her father got up, dressed himself aud
went into the kitchen. She then heard q
loud voice in that direction, and in few
minutes man came into the bedroom,
where her mother was in bed, and she was
in trundle bed. Her mother asked the
man who he was, and was answered, "Who
are your Impediately there was strug.
gle and the man then went out and all was
still. The girl was so frightened that she
covered up her head in the bedclothes and
remained perfectly still, which act proba-
bly, saved her life. She knew II was VIII
liams, for he worked for her father and she
knew his voice.
During the girls story the prisoner was
very much embarrassed, and when the
axe, clotted with blood, was brought into
the room, his head dropped instantane-
ously. His true name is said TO be Hiram
Miller, but he has recently gone by the

ORPHANS CoURT-Judge PurceH.-The
court met rs usual at noon yesterday, and trans
acted the following business:
The last will and testament of Letitia Speake,
made September TO- 1859. and witnessed by Jas.
King, John b. Lord, and John Cation, was pre-.
sented for probate and proved.
The testatrix devises all her real estate--h
dwelling on Third street west, square 629-as
likewise all her personal estate, to the sole and
separate use Of her daughter, Winny Ann, for
life and after her death to her children. The
whole value Of the estate Of deceased Is estimated
at about 81, 700.
The will Of James Rhodes, q summary Of
which was published In this paper last month,
and which had been partially proved, was fully
proved and the will probated. Mrs. 4. A.
Rhodes was qualified as executrix Of this will;

II appears in this case that the pension laws
provide that II 1t be found by certificate Of a
Court tnht u mOtuVT uIhWinB pohelon w po'

brook, his mother, had deserted him, and 50
stopped pension which had been issued to her
on account Of the child. Mrs. @. row appears
