Terrible Storm in Nova scotia.
HALIFAX, Aug, 2S

HALIFAX, Aug. IS,
Accounts Of the recent disastrous storm
in this province are continually coming
to hand. The damage in the town and
county Of Pictou has been very great.
Fences, gates, and, in fact, everything
capable Of being moved by the wind, are
scattered around the streets and fields.
Leaves and fruit are blasted and withered,
and the gardens, generally, present a
deplorable appearance. A new wharf, in
course Of construction for the Vale Coli
sry Co., noor Plotou Landing, was almost
entirely demolished. A portion Of the
railway at Picton Landing was also
washed away. The schooners Jessie
Hoyt and Leading star, and brig Willard
Brae, went ashore on Fishers Grant side
OF the harbor. and at least twenty other
schooners were driven ashore on the
same side. On the Picton side the pub
lie wharf and a few others have been
damaged cellars and warehouses along
the water streets are flooded, and guam
titles Of four, salt and other perishable
articles injured or destroyed. Four
bridges we're washed away at Port Hast
ings. where the gale was also severely
felt There are seven vessels ashore at
Port Mulgrave, four at Pierrate Cove,
four at Port Hawkes. and four at Port
Hood. The wharves are all gone at Port
Malgrave, several barns and houses blown
down, and one child killed at Cape Jack
by falling house. Eastward of halifax
the gale was the iercest that has swept
over this country for years. Buildings,
trees and fences were blown down and
strewn in every direction. Besides these
a large number of vessels have been dis.
mantled, but are not ashore. Many small
fishing schooners have been generally
shmashed up beyond hope Of ilentifca-
ton, The whole number Of disasters to
vessels at Cow Bay, amounts to fifty,
including vessels ashore and dismasted.
So far as ascertained but one life has
been lost, that Of pilot, name unknown.
During the height Of the gale, the crew
of the G. ]. Troop, being in great danger
from Tremendous seas breaking over the
vessel, Captain Macarthur had boat
hauled over the sands a distance of two
miles, and launched, to secure, if posi-
bic, the crew. The boat was manned by
Captain Macarthur, Ralf Candor and Cap
tain Martell; and these brave fellows
were successful in saving the lives of
those on board, eight in number, who
would in all probability otherwise have
persisted. This gallant boats crew staid
to rescue the crew of the Pomona, but
their boat was swamped at once, and they
had to return; but the crew was SUISSE
quently safely landed.

Orrin Dubois, wife, and their two

day. Mr.. Dubois is a middle-ased man,
a farmer by occupation. His daughters
are aged about 20 and %. They, with
their mother, remained closely veiled
during the examination. None of the
family have thus far been called as wit
nesses. The principal points in the tes-
timony are those given by the medical
men. DR.. Cory, the Coroner, said he
could detect no powder marks about the
wound, and did not think person could
shoot himself and leave no powder
marks. A paper was exhibited showing
powder marks at q distance OF six,
eight, ten and twelve feet. 1t is also
said that suicide by a pistol shot
in the head generally causes fracture and
tearing of the head. The was clean,

holes in the clothing, demeanor of the
family, hearing of shots, etc, was some

cumstantial, and unless the defendants
testify against each other, it is not prob
able that even if held for trial they will
be convicted.

RAILRoD DECISION copies of
the fifteenth volume of Wallace Reports
of decisions of the United States Supreme
Court have been published. That body.
in the case of the Reading Railroad VS..
Pennsylvania, makes the following points,
of general public interest:
First.-The transportation of freights.
or OF the subjects of commerce, is a con-
stitutional part of commerce itself.
Second.-A tax upon freight, trans
ported from State to State, is regulation
Of commerce among the States.
Third.-Whenever the subjects, in re-
gard to which a power to regulate CON-
merce is asserted, are in their nature
national, or admit of one uniform system
or plan of regulation, they are exclusive
ly within the regulating control Of Con-
gress.
Fourth. Transportation OF passengers
or merchandise through q State, or from
one State to another, is OF this nature.
Fifth.-Hence a statute of State i'm
posing tax upon freight, taken up with
In the State and carried out of it, or
taken up without State and brought

of the Constitution of the United States
which ordains that Congress shall have

nations and among the several States,
and with the Indian tribes"

PASAMINT.- The Havilah Miner. O

PANAMIST.- The Havilah Miner. of
the 10th, says:
The District of Panament is situated in
what is known as the Telescope range of
mountains, in the southwestern part of
lnyo county, about 100 miles northeast
of Havilah, by the route travelled. 1t is
represented by experts, who have visited
it for speculative purposes, as being one
of the very richest and most prolific dis
tricts on the Pacific slope, in silver ores.
We have seen and con.
versed with many persons who have Wis.
tied these mines, and without an excep-
ton they speak in glowing terms OF the
wealth of the Panament District, and
whilst we are disposed to make all due
allowance for the excitability and exag-
geration of the California mining pros
pectors, as class, from what We have
been enabled to learn from men of ex-
perienced and good judgment in such
matters, and Of cautious temperament, we
have no doubt this is all that has been
claimed for it, and is sure to be one OF
the wealthiest and most noted mining
district OF the State.

THE ADVANTAGES OF ADvERTIs-
ING.

We have frequently noticed in papers
published in this State advertisements
containing acts of Congress relating to
the Territory of Dakota, and have as
often wondered what good motive could
have prompted such waste of the peo-
pies money, Any general act, relating
to Nevada as well as other States and
Territories, ought to be published in Ne
vada. But what possible benefit it can
be to anybody Except the publisher who
does the adyertsing) to publish an act
of Congress relating exclusively to a re-
mote State or Territory, We have never
been able to understand. 1t was also
the practice of some army officers, when
they had a contract to let in Texas
or Oregn, for hay or wood supplies, to
advertise the same in q New York or
Washington paper. Such advertising is
equal to no advertising at all; in fact, 1t
is q shame, cheat and humbug. The
people most interested in the contract are
those who live near to the Fort or point
a; which the supplies are needed, yet
they rarely, if ever, see = copy of the
paper in which proposals are advertised.
In this manner many Jobs have been put
up, and the door is thrown wide open to
frauds. But We are glad to notice that
a reform has been inaugurated by the
Secretary of War, who has issued an or
der, directed to military officers having
advertising TO do, instructing them TO
have such advertisements inserted in
newspapers most likely to reach the class
of readers to whose attention the adyer-
tisements are directed. A reform is GER
tainly demanded in this respect.

eLEaNINGs FROM EXCHANGES.

Is this city. last Sunday morning, Mi
guel Gilroy 'shuffied of this mortal coil
and passed TO that = bourn from whence
no traveller returns-' He was the first
white child born in this section, and was
forty-eight years old at the time of bis
demise. Nearly sixty years ago three
sailors deserted from an English ship at
Monterey One was a Scotehman named
John Gilroy, who made his way TO the
place now called Old Gilroy, named after
HIM, where he married Mexican woman
named Ortega. who was possessed Of con-
siderable property, including what is now
known as the San lsidro grant. Miguel
was the first offspring of this union. His
father WAS a reckless, extrayagant char
acter, wasted his substance in riotous liy-
ing, and his vast possessions gradually
slipped from his grasp, leaving him when
he died. few years since. we believe, al
most penniless. This son inherited the
principal characteristics of his father,
grew up in idleness, with perfect abhor-
renee of manual labor, and when reach
ing the age of manhood, gained his live
lihood by ways that are dark and tricks
that are vain" Fixing ont precarious
existence for some years, he gradually
wasted away, until last Sunday death
came to his relief, and he went to mingle
with those who have passed over the
mystic river Gilroy Advocate, Aug.
In July, 1852, the police of Amsterdam
saw on the door of the house on Harlem
street where Catharine Spelling lived
with her daughter Dorothy, notice to
the effect that the two women had gone
to the country. This notice aroused no
suspicion, but when the old lady and her
daughter did not return after the lapse Of
six weeks, the police entered it. A fear
ful sight met their eyes. The widow and
her daughter, with their Threats cut, from
ear to ear, were lying on the floor in an
advanced state of decomposition, while
all the bureaus were rified OF their valua-
bles. 1t was ascertained that the muir
derer had carried off diamonds, money
and bonds amounting TO nearly $50, 900.
Time passed by, and the double murder
was almost forgotten, until, on the "a OF
July last, the house in which the crime
was committed was torn down. Be-
tween it and the adjoining house was a
space of about one foot in width, and
hemmed in there was found q male skel-
eton. At the bottom Of this space lay
large leathern pocket containing the
diamonds, the money and the bonds of
the murdered widow. This skeleton was
undoubtedly that of the murderer of the
two women, who, after assassinating
them and bagging the plumber, had tried
to escape over the roof of the house,
but, slipping his foot, had fallen into
the space between the two buildings
There he met with the Just retribution of
his terrible crime. He died there the ex-
crutiatingly painful death of slow star
walton. 1850 .te #t.,
