FEMALE MuRDERERs.

The female mind has taken q strange
fancy to murder recently. Mrs. Fair

den In California. Mrs. Wharton has
lust been acquitted Of the murder Of
General Ketchum, and Is soon to be
tried for the attempted poisoning OF

Van Ness. In Connecticut they have

man, who soothed her husband to the
death with arsenic cocktails under pre-
tense Of gentle %purgatives. This Is
said 20 be her second successful VEN
ture in the business Of husband killing.
and she Is suspected also OF having
poisoned several children. In Ontario,
Mrs. Phoebe Campbell Is under SEN
tsnce Of death for having put her hus-
band out Of the way with the assist-
snce Of an az In July last. In Brook
Ign, Mrs. Fanny Hyde has just under
gone q remarkable trial for the killing
Of Mr.. Watson. It appears that she
was formerly employed by Watson as
a factory operative /; that while thus

that she Afterwards married, and do
termined on a virtuous life, and that
Watson, still pursuing hcr for i'm
moral purposes, she shot and killed
him. The jury was unable to agree,
and she will have another trial. Then
there Is q Mrs. Lloyd in jail at Lynch
burg, Virginia, on the charge Of pois-

In England, we believe. there are sew
eral women under trial and sentence
for capital punishment. Women MUIR
derers have not been uncommon In
England during the last twenty years.
Beginning with Mrs. Manning, who,
with the assistance Of her husband,
murdered a visitor about twenty years
ago, In her house In Liverpool, and
was afterwards hung for It, some Of
the most desperate social tragedies
have had women for their principal
actors. We hope the contagion has
not spread to America to tsko perma-
nsnt root here.

From the Truckee Republican. Aphlse.l
The extraordinary development Of
the mining Interests In Nevada and
Utah, combined with the renewed
wants of the Central and Union Pa
cifc Railroad Companies, has caused
an unprecedented demand for lumber
and timber. Every ssw-mill from
Lake Tahoe to Reno, H. or will b, In
active operation this season. These
mills, We are informed, have orders
for all the lumber they can manufac-
ture for the next six months. These
orders extend from Truckee to various
points along the line Of the railroad
Eastward, the larger portion, some
Is, 600, 600 feet. being wanted at Salt
Lake. Some Of our lumber merchants
have orders as far Eastward as Chey-
enne, Denver aud Colorado. Lumber
has recently been sent from Truckee
to Denver, showing the feasibility Of
such shipments, and more 10 70 follow.
One mill company has orden from
Salt Lake for 10, 000, 900 feet which u
probably more than any one mill can
furnish this year. Three new saw
mills are now being constructed In
this vicinity, which will fully compen-

These will be completed and In opera
ton by the first Of June. Although
the demand for lumber Is large, there
are good reasons for believing that Il
will continue for years to como with
but little, ifany diminution. We take
the fact into consideration that
Truckeo Is the most available point
for lumber between Chicago and San
Francisco. It has been demonstrated
that lumber can be shipped from
Truckee to Denver cheaper than 1t can
be- from Chicago to that place. salt
Lake IL more than likely to want .
continuous and increasing supply ev-
cry year, and this Is the cheapest point
from which 1t cnn be obtained. The
State Of Nevada will want more each
succeeding year as her mineral wealth
becomes moro fully developed, and
her wants must be supplied from this
region. II another railroad should DO

mand for lumber that 70 likely to be
made upon 1t, we only know from the
reports made US by mill neil who
have lived here for years, and who

ject. They say the forests here, acces-
sible from the railroad, will last from

It Is a mistaken idea to suppose that

hausted. The opposite Il the case.
The timber along the Truckee is known
to be inferior to that several miles dis

best tracts have not been touched yet,
and will uot be for years to come.

From the Salt LAks News Of Monday.1
About s O'Clock yesterday morning,
Stephen Luco, over slxty years Of age,
and who resided In tho Tenth Ward,
was found dead In the water sect near
the residence Of Mr.. David Candland,
In the Ninth Ward. When discover
ed, Luce was lying on his back, his
face, however, was not covered by
water, allowing that death had not en-
sued from drowning. A basket con-
tanning prosisionA ETC., was found n
few feet from whore he lay. It Is sup
posed that he was either seized with
some kind Of . IT. from which he did
not recover. or that he died from
physical exhaustion, superinduced by
heavy drinking. Tho remains were
removed to the house Of n Of his rel
atives In the Eighth Ward, and were,
we understand, to be Inferred to-day.

The Cincinnati Convention has sue
cesded In full and complete organizes
ton, with Judge Stanley Mathews Of
Cincinnati a Chairman. According
to the morning kilograms Grseley's
chances seem to 30 much improved,
and some Of Davis earnest supporters
appear to have been transferred to
Greeley. Tho support Of the Democ-
racy Is assured to Greeley In n hearty
editorial In the Enquirer. It Is claim
cd that he would poll $4,000 Republi-
can votes In Pennsylvania and moro
in New York, and that In Ohio and the
West his name would excite great Gu
thuslasm. The Southern delegates say
he Is the strongest candidate In that
section. The New York delegates
held a meeting yesterday afternoon,
and after q heated discussion resolved
to cast the vote Of tho State 4 5 unit
for Greeley.
Notwithstanding the furore for
Greeley, the friends Of Davis continue
confident. I'll b reported that Virginia
and part Of the Iowa delegation have
been added to his support. Last even
ing Pennsylvania was reported ready
to 60 solid for Davis, aftera compli-
mentary vote for Curtin. It Is the
opinion OF Ben Perley Poore and 9th
ers that Davis Is still the strongest can
didate. The Ohio and New England
supporters Of Adams have been At
work. Alta meeting Of delegations
from Ohio, Michigan aud Wisconsin It
was voted to support Adams solldly.
With Indlana's voto Adams will be
nominated at an carly ballot; but the
vote OF Indiana 10 divided. Adams
Davis and Greeley remain prominently
before tho convention with nearly
equal strength. Trumbull, Palmer,
Brown, Chase, Fenton and ether can
didates arc virtually out Of the way.

Considerable excitement was caused
yesterday, at the corner Of Clay and
Montgomery street. by an encounter
between two mon. which was sudden
and animated. A young man was
walking along Montgomery street,
when another, above tho middle age,
seized him by the collar, exclaiming,
you are the man-give up your name.
You are a high ro6ber, you sell me
five shares Of mining stock for 800,
and there Is no such stock, no such
mine. You are a tief and q high rob
ber.' Tho man Of stocks shook himself
out of tho grasp Of his assailant and
made a hasty retreat. The old man
declared that he would have him ar
rested before night on principle, not
because he had lost 800 on ." Wild
cat" mine.

All. unusual excitements whether In

unhealthy influence. All "a prosper

merits, and tho inevitable result Isl
reaction detrimental In proportion
corresponding to the degree Of the ex-
element. Thus far, all mining or
stock excitements In this section have
been followed BY an inevitable reac-
tlon, but It Is to b hoped that the
present excitement will not be sue
ceeded by . decline IS sudden, fierce
and persistent a. the excitement has
been and still Is. Certain premonitory
symptoms Of . decline are, however,
percsptible, although, perhaps, only
transltory, and the grand crash SO
much dreaded, yet freely predicted,
may be ut hand. Hundreds Of those
who have made money, and got rich
by the present unprecedented rise In
stocks will not realize at the proper
time. Those who have sold are the
only ones who have really made
money, especially II they stay sold.
Those whose accommodations In the rise
are merely nominal, that Is to say, q
matter Of figures with only a paper
realty, stocks or brokers accounts,
may indulge In the golden dream, till
by disagreeabls degrees they waken
to the fact that such ''richss do indeed
take to themselves wings and fly
away" without their flight being even
noticed or discovered till after they
are gone.
Even those who have dabbled sue
oessfully In stocks and realized much
coin tberefrom, are hardly ever salts
ned, but foudly imagining, because
they happened to win BY buying on
the rise; that tho same simple process
can bc ~ skilfully and satisfactorily
followed, they invest again and again.
till they get caught out for all they
have made, and perhaps more too.
Were It ~ easy . matter 10 look ahead
a. 1t Is to look back, all Of US might
easily become ~millionAires. In dealing
in stocks, tho finest point Is to know
when to sell. It's comparatively easy
to know when to buy. The only sure
thing Is to Invest In the Fall, when
stocks are down to the lowest notch,
and sell In the Spring, when they are
up. Very few, however, have the pa
thence and nerve to do this. They
want to get rich faster, and cannot
content themselves to let their money
lie idle or In q q~ulsscently invested
state. They SEQ too many chances
where they might turn 1t TO advantage
or could have made in other stocks
which have gone up. Next fall will
tell the story IS to who have and who
have not proited by the rise.

VIRGINIA proposes to pay four per
cent interest upon the unfuaded debt o!
the State, instead of six, and will give
her creditors non-interest bearing GER
,ifcate for the remaining two per cent
which, as is claimed, represents West
Virginia share. That mode OF appro-
priating the debt has the merit OF sim.
plicity and directness. but its justice la
questionable. The bondholders will be
forced to accept it, because they can do
no better, but By 80 doing they virtually
cancel and reiinquish one.third OF their
claim. The idea that West Virginia
owes all OF one-third OF the debt and
will make provision for its payment is
a valuable one to the old Common
wealth and has been wrought up into
a great many advantageous shapes.
The original inventor would have made
a fortune had he taken patent on his
discovery, and he certainly deserves

THE RAILROAD DISCRIMISA-
TIONS

The following is the joint resolution
adopted by the Legislature in relation
10 the alleged discrimination against
West Virginia in the rates OF freight
and travel on the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad. The resolution was intro
duced by Mr.. SHERRARD. OF Hampshire
county:
Be hresolrsd BY the Legislature Of West
Virginia, That Logan Osburn. John
Basel and S. II. Woodward be ap.
pointed a commission with power, and
they are hereby directed and instructed
to make inquiry into the charges for
travel and transportation on the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad and the
branches thereof in this State. and
whether the same are legal, just and
equitable, or otherwise; what dlscrlmi-
nations existed between through and
way travel; whether said company is in
any way violating the laws OF the State,
and all other matters in connection with
said railroad which concern the rights
and equities Of the public.
Resolved, 2. That said above named
commissioners shall receive the same
mileage and per diem for their services
while discharging the same as mem
bers of the Legislature are entitled to
receive, and report in writing to the
Legislature at its next session.
. RESOLVED, 3. That the President OF
said company shall furnish said com;
missioners the information when called
on, necessary to enable them to dis.
charge their said duty.

THs New Hampshire election takes
ulace on the second Tuesday in March
and is attracting a good deal of atten-
ton among the politicians. The GRANT
administration is exerting itself to the
utmost to prevent the State from being
carried by the Democrats, as it was one
year ago, and whatever a lavish dis
bursement of grcenbacks and profuse
display of governmental patronage can
effect will be done to bring the State
back into the Radical line. The con-
test is likely to be close one, and we
advise no person 10 risk hiswealth upon
the result. The Democrats throughout
the country will not be disappointed by
a Radical victory il New Hampshire
neither DO they care very much what
issue the contest may have. \ Radical
success will probably strengthen
GRANTS chances for renom inatlon, and
there is no political event that the
Democrats will hail with more pleasure
than that.
