LORD FREDERICK CAvEND1sH, the
new Chief Secretary for Ireland, and
THOMAS HAvILAND BURKE, Under
Secretary, were murdered while
walking in Phneix Parg. Dublin, g
few minutes before seven o'clock on
Saturday evening. Lord FREDERICK
CAvENDIRH strolled out into the
park after taking dinner at the Chic
Secretsry's lodge, near y,and was
soon joined by Mr.. BURKE, who came
to the park in a carriage, and
alighted when he saw the Chief Sec
rotary, and joined him in his walk
An Irish jaunting car containing
four roughly dressed men drove ur
behind them and stopped. The four
men left the car and imm ediately
assaulted Lord CAvENDrsH snb Mr..
BURKE With daggers and bludgeons
and when they had completed their
murderous work leaped into the cal
and were driven rapidly away. The
liieless bodies of the two Secretaries
were found soon afterwards and car.
ried to the Stevens Hospital. Ur
to the latest advices by cable none
OF the asgasains had been arrest ed.
Aside from any political consider.
alton, the murder is shocking in the
extreme. and it must be regarded as
especially important 10 it's bearings
happening at this particular time.

ELSEWHERE will he fonnd a letter
from Mr.. LEROY SHAW. in opposition
TO the proposed District subscription
in aid Of the construction of the
Kingwood Railway. AS will be seen,
it is mere rehssh-almost a YER
batjm repetition of the assumptions
and argument Of Mr.. HEERMANs,
which have already been exposed
and exploded and knocked into
worss than smithersens.
IL is fact well known to every
body in the District, except Mr..
HEERMANs and Mr., SHAW, that the
friends of the road, the same parties
who are advocating the levy 70 strong.
" 30 far from being open to the
charge Of oistrustng the enterprise,
have proved their iaith by subscribing
literally, according 10 their means.
1t is fact we'll known to every-
body in the District, except Mr.
HEEPMAEs and Mr.. SHAW, that a
shaft is being sunk at Newburg at
an estimated cost of $4,000, to
reach the same vein of cokine coal
that underlies the whole country be-
tween here aud Tunneltop,
and which would be trav-
srsed and developed by he proposed
road.
1t is also fact generally under
stood among tolerably well informed
persons everywhere, Mr.. SHAW ex-
cepted, that regulation Of the
postal service requires the carrying
Of the mails TO be given to railroads
wherever su Oh roads are in opera

mate for the mail oerVice over the
thirteen miles Of the proposed road

distance Of twenty-five miles 81

the estimate named is reasonable
one or not. The amount heretofore
paid has been for horse back or Star
service, and. has been governed en-

but uuinlormed and inexperienced
bidders, and can have nothing 10 do

the wretched culpability Of his keep.
ers at Washington, was permitted to
escape and make his way successfully
to Canada. And now it ia JOHN w.
DORSEY, Chief among the indicted
Star route conspirators, who is miss
ing.
Some time ago Colonel GEORGE
BLISS, counsel for the prosecution in
the Star route cases, received tho
personal and professional assurance
Of ROBERT G.. INGERsoLL that his
client, JOHN w. DORSEY, should be
produced in court az early as the LIST
Of May. Relying upon this prom
Use, the Government did not attempt
TO arrest Mr.. DORSEY.
On Thursday morning Of last week
Col. BLISS asked Col. INaERsoLL 10
fulfl his agreement. He replied:
| cant afford to help you fellows,
andhe wont be here"
Col. BLISS thereupon very natu.
rally inferred that the assurance
thus clearly violated had been given
with the intention Of delaying the
trial, and he said 80.
This expression OF opinion aroused
Col. INGERsoLI, who proceeded to
pound the table at which he stood,
and shout, "It's liel You're a lisrI''
after fashion originally introd uced
into the Criminal Court Of the Dis

Strange 10 say, Judge WYLrE
could see nothing very reprebensibls
in the outrageous language and vio-
lenoe Of IBGERsoJL, but at once pro
coed to administer a stern rebuke to
BLISS.
"Perhaps MIR. 1NeERsoLL bas gone
beyond the just measure Of retalia
ton" said Mr.. Justice WYLrE, "bnt
the offence Of Mr.. BLISS is inexcu-
sable"
