Fall Confessi: of Bridget Durgan. After the execution of Bridget Durgan at New Brunswick, N. J., yesterday, as reportea at length in our special dispatches from that place— Mr. Adrain read to the representatives of the press the confession dictated to him by Bridget Durgan, as follows: J am nearly twenty-three years of age. My real name is Bridget Dagnan. My tather is dead, but my mother fe still living in Dan- eliffe county, Sligo, ireland, where I was born. Have two brothers living there, and two sistere, ope younger living with mother, and the other is older, married, and living in Englana, Came to this country two years last Obristm: 1 lived first in Brooklyn, then at Poulls’ Ferry, and in Piscataway, and io Plainfield, N. J.. and finally with Dr. Coriell at New Market. Mre. Uoriell was very kind and pleasant to me, and I never had any quarrel ‘with ber. About balf-past 100’clock on the nightof February 25th last Mrs. Coriell was in on the pad Aa the sitting-room. Be- fore ying down she complained of not feeling very well, and sala she would not goto bed, and wished me to sit up and watch little Mamie, who was sleeping in the cradie im the mext bed room. As rss Neh was lying om the lounge apparently asleep, 1 came © the kitewen with the nife in my hand that was exhibited on the trial, and picked up the kerosene lamp which was standing on the table not lighted, and approaching her strack her with the lamp on the head. She started up bewildered and went into the bed room, and I followed after her. She stood py the side of the bed, and as I came near her she grasped the knife out of my hand. I tarned and picked up another knife from the table in the bed room, which was concealed by a cl.th which 1 had thrown over it, 1 had fouad itiu @ bureau drawer and placed it there. I then turned upon Mrs, Coriell, pushed her back on the bed, and struck her repeatedly with this knife. The other knife had failen on the floor and was not used by either, and I do not know how it become bent. She resisted all ehe could. defending herself with pillows, and after striking her very often, as she lay upon the bed, and, supposing she was dead, I pick- ed up little Mamie out of the’ cradle and went into the sitting room and sat oa the lounge for afew minutes. 1 then went into the Kitchen with Mamie, and washed my hands in a pot of water =n the stove. I then returmed to the sitting room and bed room, and found- Mrs. Uorieil had gone out of the house. 1 found her going towards the gate. I told her to go back again. She said nothing. but went back. and as she was passing through the sit- ting room stopped and kissed little Mamie, d then sat cown on the floor between the sitting room and bed room. While she was ait- ting there 1 took the child’s emall chair and struck ber two or three times. 1 never hit her on the neck, as was supposed. 1 then drew her into the bed room and laid her down on the floor. 1 then came back to the sitting room, and afterwards lighted Mamie’s dresses and some paper and threw it burning on the bed. 1 carried the child out of the house in the same clothes as when she was put into the cradle. 1 went down tothe gate, and while standing there thought I heard a man coming. I went back into the house and sat on the lounge five minutes, and then left the house and aroused tbe neighbors, representing that robbers were in the house. The confession then recites several facts of no great importance, most of them being con- tradictory of previous statements. She states that Mary Gilroy was not there on the night of the murder, and knew nothing about it, being entirely innocent. 2 ‘The confession then concludes as follows :-— There was no truth in my story about two men coming to the houseon the night of the murder; and Annie Given, whom I unjustly charged, had nothing to do with it. There was no design or sttempt to rob. The murder was for another pi me Jed me to commit the horrid crime. The idea of murdering her did not come upon ms suddenly that night; [ had thought of ita long time before. 1 nave told @ true story. 1 am sorry for having committed so great a crime, and hope God will forgive me. Tue Pore anv THE OzaR—There is a serious difficulty existing between the Pope rd to tl and the Czar in re, restrictions im- P ussia. Both the ope and the Ozar insist on maintaining their Tespective prerogatives, and neither of them will yield to the other. The Ozar, however, being absolute in his dominions, is mas.er of ‘th ituation. Taking into consideration the that Catholics must at times find it neces sary to communicate with their spiritual chief, the Ozar bas consented to allow them to write whatever they may think proper: but only on condition that all such communications shall first be submitted to the inspection of the Kas- sian Minister of the Interior, who is clothed ‘with suthority to pass them, or to return them to the writers with his veto. This is putting the Catholics in Russia under a system of espionage against which the Pope thus far has unavailingly protested. Stvovtar Dmatu —The recenteudden and singular death of James Regan, of Albany, near Bainbridge, on the line of the Susquehan- na raiiroad. furnishes a subject for serious contemplation by all persons who have moles or warts onthem. Young Regan hada mole or wart on the face, which was cut with a ra. zor in thebands ofan unexperienced pereor, ‘who undertook to shave bimin a barn. It id not produce lock-jaw, as stated, but para. dysis, and it was from the effects of this dis- ease thathe died. Dr. B.S, Sill attended him. Dr. 8. 6 that while the whole right side Was paralyzed, the leftleg and arm became rigid and the face turned over the left shoulde: The mole or wart cut was on the left side, which no doubt produced the contraction of the head and limbs of the side. ATEROOIOVS MURDER NEAR MEMPHIS.—The body of Dr. Matthew R. Rameey. a well- known physician. was found secreted in a swamp near the Raleigh road, six miles from Memphis, Wednesday morning. The corpse was perforated with balls, the head mashed, and bis pockets mfled. It is supposed the murder was committed for the purpose of rob. bery. Jobn Stacey has been arrested on sus- Picion of Desig te murderer, but n0 positive f against him has been produced. The loctor had gone to the country to visit a pi tient. His Borse was found with a shot in the shoulder. S87 The following curious accident happen- ed near Warsaw, Ind., a few days ago: Mr. Markly was engaged in threshing wheat with & macbine, and it appears that some straw had ‘wound around the cylinder in such a manner that ite rapid motion caused it to ignite, there. by setting fire to the loose straw which was scattered around. All efforts to put out the fire was aboriive,and the barn was entirely consumed, together with about 300 bushels of wheat, 20) bushels of oats, 40 bus! of bar. ley, 6 tons of hay, #150 worth of farm imple. ments, and the t! hing machine, which cost about #400. AWFUL SUICIDE IN CINCINNATI—A very singular suicide occurred at Cincinnati on the 27th. A young German, named Josepn Zum- bush, was desperately in love with a pretty young milliner working in a store on Vine treet. She refused his attentiona, and finally clined toseehim.

One of these societies, lately established in New York. will furnish us with an appropriate SMustration of the plan. It is called + The First Manhattan Co-operative Grocery and Provision Association,” and is intended to in- clude among the articles furnished, coal and wood, so that, with the exception of clothing, the members may be supplied with almost everything embraced within the usual mean- ing of the word “ necessaries.”” The object is to be gained by purchasing at the lowest price for cash, by seliing to the members at rates somewhat in advance of cot, but, nevertheless, more reasonable than the ordinary prices of dealers, and to divide the profits among the raembers of the association in rauo to their purchases, which may be done by payment of the dividend in casb, or in goods, or by placing the amount to the capital- stock of the members. Jo become a member, a subscription to the stock, which is divided into one thousand shares, of five dollars each, is necessary. The stbscriber may take any number of shares, not exceeding thirty. The mode of payment was at first intended to be by weekly paymenis ef one dollar on each bare, until the whole amount was paid in, but, by subsequent arrangement, it was de- cided that it should be five per cent. weekly on each share. Members who wish to withdraw from the association, can takeout their capital, less twenty-five per cent; this regulation be- ing made in order to prevent a sudden break. ing up of the association by the withdrawa! of many members. Kut for the benefit of the families of members who die, there is a stipu- lation that the widow and survivors shall be Tepaid the whole amount of the share of the decedent whom they represent. The direc- tors also have a right to compel persons who remove from the city of New York, and, there- fore, cease to participate in the working of the Ascociation by purchasing, to withdraw their spares. which, otherwise, would become in- vestmente, earning dividends from the dealings of others with the association, to which the owners of such unused rights would contri- bute nothing. This eociety does not seem to be a very large one in its operations. A capital of five thon- sand dollars is but asmail one, but itis believed to be sufficient to supply the workingmen, who are engaged in the association, with all they want. The capital is to be turned over and over, &nd it muet increase by judicions man- agement rapidly. The Rochdale Co-operative Association of Great Britain, the pioneer in this movement, was started in 1543 with far Jess capital. the whole stoek which the origi members clubbed together being $140, yet upon that small beginning the society has increased so much that it now does a business of over a million of dollars a year, and kas many thou- sand members who participa’e in the advan tages ef the plan. For workingmen, this sys tem may be made available, so as to reduce thi annual expenses of supporting their families to a very appreciative degree, teaching them at the same time the advantages of thrift and econemy. The system is one which should be thoroughly understeod and with earnest members of the co-operative soeleties and taithfol officers it cannot fail to be success- ful.—Philadelphia Inquire’ THE SALE OF Dexter. —The ; Farm says :—Dexter certainly is a marvel, and in securing him Mr. Bonner has secured a rize.

They propo’ to devowan certain percentage of the proceeds to the Ma- sonic Hall and Asyium Fund of this State, and succeeded in odtatning the endorsement of Robert D.

The gtent body of the fraternity, however, disap. proved and discountenanced the scheme, and the Grand Lodge at ite jast ression specially forbade the Trustees of the Hail and Asylum Fond receiving any monev from the enter- price. Notwiths‘anding this disapproval,ow- ing to the inducements held ont by the mana- ger of the scheme, agreat many tickets were cold, but the drawings for prizes so often p: poned has never taken place.

The tickets were but one dollar each, and the prizes were to be given away on the occasion of the first concert. The first prize was to have been the bonse and furniture, valued at £40.000: the second the horses and carriage, and so on through the entire list. A great y tickets for the concerts bad been sold, without the purchasers receiving | any equivalent. Numerous complaints had been received by the police in regard to the scheme. At about five o'clock last evening, Detective Numen entered the office at No. S06 Broadway, where he found Charles D. Max- Well, @ young clerk. in the act of selling tickets for the concerts. The officer arrested him, when Michael T. Gregory, a hanger on in the place, struck the officer In the face and en- deavored to rescue the prisoner. The officer succeeded in overpowering Gregory, and both the prisoners were taken to the station-house, and locked up for the night.

Abortion Case in Lansingburg—A Woman Left to Die in the Streets. Troy, August 29—A very mysterious case ot abortion, ene of the most reparkable as well as horrible in all its details that ever tran- spired in this vicinity, was deve! ped iu the village of Lansingburg. & suburb of this city, last night, at quite a late hour. Tne victim is @ young girl, nineteen years of age, named Caroline hubbard. She formerly resided with & dressmaker in the town of Pitistown, Rens- selaer county, named Kate ©. Groff, but about & month since deceased left her employmen:, and bad not, so far as is Known, been seen by any ot her acquaintances or relations until the sad denouement here recorded. The first that was seen of her last evening was in com- pany with a strange mar ina carriage passing through the village of Lansingburg. She was crying and the man endeavoring to pacify her. After proceeding a short distance, they alight- ed from the vehicle and the two sat down upon the steps of E. Tracey's ice house, where her condition speedily attracted a crowd of peo- ple. Soon she ceasea to speak and rapidly grew worse, until she died in the arms of a lady who had been called from her honge to attend the dying girl. In the excitement in- eldent to this death scene, her companion re- entered the carriage and drove rapidly away. A policeman followed and attempted to arrest im, butin the darkness ofthe night he was soon lost to view, and escaped. The body of the unfortunate female was conveyed to the station house after her decease, and an effort made to ascertain her name and residence, sbe was an entire stranger to all who then held her. Now,a singular case of mistaken identity occurred. A cousin and brother-in- law of ® young Jady living in Cohoes, named Annie Conners, both identified the body as that of Miss Conrers; but upon dispatching an offi- cer to ber residence, that person was found at home in bed, alive and well. 1t was not until ibis morning that the remains were identified. They prove to be those of Miss Hubbard, as stated above, but beyond this very little is known of her history, and nothing whatever bas been developed in regard to ber where. aboute since leaving the employment of the Pittstown seam: This morning Drs Hulland Bocklin, ese. of Lansingburg, made a post mortem examination of the body of de- ceased.and found that death was caused by inflammation of the womb, resulting trom an operation to produce miscarriage. No clue whatever has been obtained as to the myste- rious companion of the deceased, who deposit- ed her upon the street in a dying condition, and then so rapidly fled away in the moment of excitement attending her decease.
