SHOCKING AND STARTLING CORFES- SION. The Philadelphia Inquirer of Tuesday, furnishes the following additional partic- ulars relating to the awful crimes of Pa- mela Myers: We gave in yesterday’s Inquirer an account of the arrest of Pamela lyeis,jat Mr. Thomas Rice’s house, on the Nice- town Lane, in the twenty-third ward charged with having very mysteriously made away with a number of her chil- dren. We have been informed that she has voluntarily confessed to the officers that she had, at different times, within the past six years, given birth to siz chil dren, which had cither died about the time of their birth, or had been murdered by their mother! These children, which were all illegitimate, were the result of intercourse with different men, and to make the affair still more shocking, the uncle of the miserable woman, a man named Snyder, is charged with the pa- ternity of two of them. Snyder is now in prison. He is a married man. He is also accused of having been accessory to the murder of some of the children. “Pa mela, after her arrest, made a full con- fession of her crimes. The first child to which she gave birth, was born in the entry of her uncle’s house. The mother had the sinall pox at the time, and the child took it and diet soon after. She was detected, however, a day or two be- fore its death, in an attempt to suffocate it. The second child was choked by its mother after its birth, and was thrown by her into the cesspool, from whence it was taken by the uncle, piaced in a box, and buried in the yard attached to the house. The third child was born in an open ficld, and was, she says, still born. The fourth was born alive, and was choked by the parent, and disposed of in the same manner as the second. Cf the fifth child we have no information, and the sixth, which was born five or six days since, the mother says, was still born. Other parties allege it was thrown into a pig pen, and devoured by tie hogs! On Sunday afternoon the wretch- ed woman had an interview with the Mayor, and was committed by him to to prison to await a further examina- tion. The following is the substance of her admissions, made to the Mayor. One of the children was buried in the church- yard, and one in the houseyard, in a box; my uncle and the people buried it in the box ; they got it out of the privy of the soy house opposite to where I lived : had dropped it into the privy; all I Stated to Mr. Seed was correct. Two of the ehildren erere born alive and 1 choked them to death! The last one was not born alive ; it was born in the field, and I left it there. THE BLACK PLAGUE OF THE FOUR. TEESTH CENTOKY There was one disease called the black death, the black plague, or the great mortality. The most dreadful visitation of it was one that began in China, spread over Asia, and in the year 1348 entered Europe. Europe was then, however, not unused to plagues. Six others had made themselves famous during the preceding eight and forty years. The black plague spread from the south of Europe to the north, occupying about three years in its passage. In two years it had reached Sweden ; in three years it had conquered Russia. ‘The fatal influence came among men ripe to receive it. Europe was full of petty wars. Citizens were immured in cities in unwholesome houses over- looking filthy streets, as in beleaguered fortresses ; for robbers, if not armies, occupied the roads beyond their gates. Husbandmen were starving feudal slaves ; religion was mainly superstition ; ignor- ance was dense, and morals were de- based ; and little control was set upon the passions. Vessels with dead crews drifted about in the Mediterranean, and brought corruption and infection to the shores on which they stranded. In what spirit did the people, superstitious as they were in those old times, meet the calam- ity? Many committed suicide in frenzy. Merchants and rich men, seeking to di- vert the wrath of Heaven from them- selves, carried their treasure to the churches and monasteries, where, if the monks, fearing to receive infection with it, shut their gates against any such offering, it was desperately thrown to them over their walls. Even sound men, corroded by anxiety wandered about livid as the dead. Houses quitted by their inhabitants tumbled to ruins. By plague, and by the flight of terrified inhabitants, many thousand vil- lages were left absolutely empty, and si- lent as the woods and fields. The Pope, in Avignon, was forced, because all the churchyards were full, to consecrate, as a burial place, the river Rhone, and in- sure to the faithful an interment, if not in holy ground, at least in holy water. How the dead were carted out of towns for burial in pits, and how the terror of the people coined the fancy that, through indecent haste, many were hurried out and thrown into those pits while living, every one knows—it was the incident of plague at all times. Italy was reported to have lost half its inhabitants. ‘he Venetians fled to the Islands and forsook their city, losing three men in four ; and in Padua, when the plague ceased, two- thirds of the inkabitants were missing. This is the black death, which began to- wards the close of the year 1348 to rav- age England, and of which Antony Wood says, extravagantly, that at the close of it scarcely a tenth part of the people re- mained living. CuLorororm. —The New York Express Messenger says: «We know of a young lady who pro- tracted her father’s life for several months by rubbing him daily with chloroforn: while his vital energies were sinking un- der the disease called consumption. She was accustomed to manipulate him every day with chloroform, until overcome her- selt by its tumes, she would sink down upon the floor and remain sometimes for a whole hour in that situation. But she liked it, and she described the effect upon her as being so delicious, that as soon as she recovered from its influence, she longed for the time to come round when she would be expected to repeat the ope- ration. Her father died, but the love of chloroform has become almost a passion with the daughter.” InpiaNa ConaressionaL Vots—Or- FiclAL.—The Indianapolis papers con- tain the official vote given for members .of Congress in the several districts in that State.

Noan’s Arx.—The} t ocean steam- ship, (Says the Sailor’ azine,) now plying on the Atlantic, bears precisely the proportion in length, breadth, and depth, that are recorded concerning Noah’s Ark. The dimensions of the At- lantic steamers are, length 322 feet, breadth of beam 50 feet, depth 284 feet. The dimensions of the Ark were, length 300 cubits, breadth 50 cubits, depth 30 cubits. The Ark, therefore, was nearly twice the size, in length and breauth, of these vessels, the cubit being nearly 22 inches ; both had upper, lower, and mid- dle stories, After all the equipments of forty-two centuries which have ~~ since the deluge, the ship builders have re —_ to the model afforded by Noah’s 0 Plant trees—plant them by the road-side—plant them in yards, streets, lanes, lot, everywhere you can find room for a tree to give shade or bear fruit. Now, this very day, is the right time to plant trees. There is no better time than November to plant hardy fruit-trees, and every hundred dollars that may be spent in planting such trees along the highway cf a farm that has a publi¢ traveled road running through it will add a thousand dollars to the selling price of that farm twenty years hence. Take up large trees with roots, and plant them as though you intended them to grow, and they will grow. A Fortunate Derention Arrer ALL Dr. John B. Philips, of Kennett town- ship, Chester county, Pa., who, on the eve of leaving Switzerland about two months since, was rudely arrested and thrown into prison on suspicion of being Maz- zini traveling in disguise, and detained in consequence some seven or eight days, was en route for home, and but for this detention would have arrived in Liver- pool just in time to have taken for New York in the ill-fated steamer Arctic. His unexpected imprisonment in Switgerland fortunately prevented him from sharing the fate of the passengers of that noble steamer: (> Oabbages may be headed in win- ter by setting them with their roots in good rich earth just as they grew, and and covering the tops so they will not freeze. This may be done with a roof of boards, hay, or dirt, or brush aud rails and straw covered with dirt, with liitle air-holes. Cabbage grown in this way is blanched, sweet and tender, and wiil pay much more than the cost of thus ar- ranging the late stalks which failed to form heads in the fall. The work should be done just before the ground freezes, and at first only slightly cover thy tops.
