deress.
From the Paterson IN. J.) Guardian.l
Emma Long, of Paterson, New Jersey,
sentenced for ten years for the murder of
q child (by drowning it in well) out on
Broadway, on the Paulison place, has
four years taken off her term. An AS
semblyman, from Warren county, who
was instrumental in procuring her par
don, took her to his home last week, but
after remaining with him one day she
stealthily left and returned to the prison.
Having no home or friepds the keeper,
Mr.. Hennon, kindly took her in and en-
ployed her as domestic in his own
apartments till some suitable place is
provided for her. She is very interest.
ing looking female, and although her ap-
pearauce betokens lack of intelligence,
it is not at all condemning II will be
remembered that she took the child from
the sidewalk opposite the Guardian
office, when it was playing before its
mothers door, walked it around through
Fair street and again into Broadway
above, and for nearly two miles, till she
got it to the old house on the Paulison
farm, which she reached by crossing the
woods by the wagon path this side of Mr..
Popes and so over the hill Her little
sister was with her when she took the
child, and one or two other children at
home, her mother being absent, and her
father at work in the quarry. The chill
dren took the child and stripped it of its
clean afternoon clothing, until it was en-.
tirely naked, and carried it TO the well and
at first set it over the curb. The little child,
about two years old, an interesting little
girl, cried either in terror or to BE taken
out; but Emma Jane pushed it off the
curb inside and down into the we'll. The
murderess and her smaller companions
then watched it drown. The child was
missed by its mother, bell-man went
round, and only the next day was the
child discovered. 1t transpired that Mr..
Long went to the we'll for drink, and
saw the child in the well, which was about
twenty FIVE feet deep, and inquiring of
the children, was told that q negro had
thrown it down the day before. The fa-
ther sent one of the children to neigh
boris, and the dead infant proved to be
the lost child. A corouer's inquest was
held, and Mr.. Garrison, up Broadway,
testified that he saw the child being |
walked up to the well by the Long girls
the day before. Emma Jane at last con-
fessed, as did the other children. She
was then about eleven or twelve years old.
She has grown up in prison. Is consid.
cred pretty. The Long family are sim
ply monstrosities, and the race ought not
to be allowed to propagate. We regret that
a pardon has been received by this heart
less and utterly deprayed young creature
All of her family are thieves and murder
srs. 1t seems impossible flor them to be
anything else, aud all have been in the
State prison, We think the pardon here
was misapplied.

Another attsmpt 10 being made to drag
General Lee into the slough of politics,
this time by Walker, the new Governor
of Virginia, who has invited him to a
consultation. We sincerely hope the old
hero will persist in keeping aloof from all
such entsbgl clements, no matter how fair
they may promise. In the grandeur Of
his honesty and Spartan retieence, he
offers such contrast to the noisy idols
Of the land, as to reflect glory on himself
and every man, woman and child in the
South who feels interested in preserving
record free from cloud or stain. Dis
frsnchised and impoverished, but true to
bis instincts and his loTea, there is
sanctitY in his voluntary seclqsion from
public life, we would not see polluted
until the dawn Of brighter skies and hap
pier dsys.-Nsp Orleans Times.

coming in of the tide swung the Great
Eastern in . contrary direction. and the
splice was not completed until three
o'clock the following morning. The cable
was then tested, and everything being
found perfect, the mammoth steamer
moved her screw and paddles, and the
