It was a sad fact that wo- man, naturally kind, shrunk from her erring sister, and left her to herself, lest she should be contaminated while the other sex did not thus shun their fallen brethren. ‘Woman, it seemed, could not teuch pitch but she should be defiled.

If this be so, then one would think that nothing more was necessary than to state tho case of the poor outcasts for whom we now plead.

ARREST OF TUB ACCUSED PARTING—THE CORONER'S INVESTIGATION- ‘Tuesday evening, an altercation took place in a grocery store, kept by George Strauss, at No. 879 Water street, be- tween Peter Laspey, (alias “French Poter,”’ and » satlor named John McCabe, and from high words a personal conflict ensued. McCabe was badly beaten and knocked down insensible. The police were called to the scene, and conveyed the injured man to the Fourth ward station house, where he expired soon after. Officers Langdon, Redden, Gleason, and McGuire, ar- rested Peter Laspey, together with Jerry Kelly, and Wm. Sinclair, who are said to be the three men who beat the deceased, thereby causing his death. Dr. Wetherill, on making a past mortem examination of the deceased, dis- covered @ severe fracture at the base of the skull, which, in his opinion, was the immodiate cause of death. ‘The injury is supposed to have been done by a blow with an iron weight, such as is used in grocery stores, and by one of the accused parties.

Treadway, in Salem County, New Jersey, for the Mux- der of his Wit. ‘The ordinarily quiet town of Salem was filled by a large number of persons last Tuesday, to witnessthe execution of Samuel T. Treadway, who was convict’ ed of murdering his wife, at the last assizes. This is the first execution in that part of the country since the Declaration of Independence. Notwithstanding the unfavorable weather, and the previous declarations made by the Sheriff, that but a few persons would be admitted, still, every one evinced a desire to get a glimpse of the unfortunate man. Throughout Monday the prisoner was engaged in prayer and praise, and showed no concern daring the erection of the gallows. Four gentlemen were with him during the night, until six o'clock on Tuesday morning, and report the prisoner as having mis sound about half an hour, the remainder of which was it in cheerful conversation and devo- Geath, and expremed a desire, that ‘he, might go to eath, an a e the gallows unbound. His cell was pb = & 8k o'clock, A. M., by the Rev. Mr. Young and the Rev. Mr. Widdemer, pastors of the Baptist churches of Salem, and the Rev. Mr. Otis, of the Episcopal church. They found him calm, and he told them he felt happy, and did not dread the punishment that awaite \. Religious exercises were held in the cell in the morning by the above mamed reverend gentlemen, the prisoner joining in while singing the hymns. He laced in the hands of Mr. Widdemer a Bible, a hymn book, and a one dollar note, which he wished to have precented to his niece. The sheriff entered the cell 25 minutes past 11 o'clock, and the prisoner was brought out at a quar- ter to 12 o'clock. His step was steady, and no signs of faltering were perceived. At the bottom of the scaffuld, Rev. Mr. Stratton, of the Presbyterian church, read the 3d chapter of Lamentations, after which the Rev. Mr. Young ad- dressed the Throne of Grace. The hymn was then a at the request of the prisoner, commencing “Show pity, Lord—9 Lord, forgive; Let a repenting rebel live.’’ After bidding the clergymen in attendance adieu, he ascended the scaffold with a firm step, wearing a smile upon his countenance. The sheriff then read the death warrant, and was told by the prisoner to perform his duty. He remarked to Mr. Widdemer that he did not wish those who witnessed his dread- fulend to follow his example, but to take warning from his case. Rev. Mr. Widdemer offered up a Prayer from the scaffold. Sheriff Plummer then proceeded to discharge his duty, assisted by Sheriff Stiles of Cumberland, and Sheriff Eyles of Gloucester county; the dro, fell ata quarter past twelve, precisely. He died without a struggle. Drs. Gibbon, Reeve, Dickinson, and Cook,, were in attendance. The body was suspended about three quarters of an hour, during which time the prison doors were thrown open, and hundreds of persons were admitted to view the remains. The scaffold was built by Mr. Levi Dubree, upon the most improved plan, and put up in the jail yard on Monday afternoon. The following are its dimen- sions:—eight by nine atthe base, from the bottom to the top of ‘the platform seven feet ten inches. The platform consisted of two doors, each being two and a half feet wide—whole height of scaffold sixteen feet.

STATEMENT BY SAMUEL T. TREADWAY. The following statement was made by Samuel T. Tread- way, on Tueay afternoon last, to Rey. E. 8. Widdemer, in regard to his Hfe, designed to be given at the conclusion = the sermon over remains, at his brother’s resi- lence. Iwas born in Gloucester county, New Jersey, near Woodbury, May 20, 1811, and was blessed with «plows mother, who often advised me to do well. She repeated]; urged upon me the necessity of doing away with my e actions, and serving God. I remained with my parents until I was between eighteen and pineteen years wrens, at which time a difficulty arose between myself and father. Ithen Jeft his house, but shortly after, upon his solicitation, returned home again. A second difficulty ooourred through my disobedience, and this was the first step to ruin—disobedience to my parents. T again left home, and directed my course towards Penn- sylvania. Ithere found employment on the Columbia Railroad, after which I returned to Gloucester county again. Here I found employment upon the farm of John Jeseup. From thence Il went to James Jessup’s, upon whose premises a difficulty arose between myself anda colored man by the namo of Johnson, in relation to leay- ing open @ barn door, whereupon I determined to cart- whip him. In the effort of a third person to drag him away, his foot caught under a strip crossing the barn floor —he fell and broke his leg. The next day I took him to the County House, where afterward I heard he died. The third time I returned to my father’s heuse. I then de- termined to leave for Louisiana. I arrived there and re- mained three yearsin the employ of Samuel Guise. From thence! steared my course to New Orleans, remaining one summer, when I again returned to New Jersey, whore I arrived late in the fall of 1841. It was at my father’s house where I first became ao- uainted with, Carty, to whom I was married in ugust, 1842, in opposition tomy mother’s will. Difficulties soon arose betwcen myself aud wife, in con: 08, as | believe, of both doing wrong, which ended, at that time. in our separation.

Placir my sister, Hannah Cobb, bi service during the war with eighteen months, I sgain return- ed to New Jersey, making my home in Salem, with my mother. It wax from this date that I went isto the om- Hoy of Mr. Padgett, of Penn’s Neck—namely, the spring of 1849. The following August wo again commen housekeeping together, and for three years wo liyed hap- pier together than ever before. ‘The first thing that marred our happiness at this time yas occasioned by a trifling thing, namely, the sale of fowls aguinst her will. after this I became very much intoxicated, and if ever I threatened her life, it was when under the influence of liquor. The following night she again left. This was on the 22d day of July, 1 the 29th of July a warrant was issued for my arrest; was arrested, and after a hearing released on bail before the Sessions Court. I met my wife in front of Mr. Stout's store, inSalem. I askea her whether she would com- os the pending difficulties. Her reply was that she not know what she would do. We were together that entire night, sitting by the road side, conversing about our difficulties This being Saturday night, on Sunday morning, when we parted, she still refused a dedinite an ewer. One week from that day I went to Mr. Bilder- back's house to converse again on the subject. She would give me no answer then whether she would appear against mo at court or not. 1 offered thea, if she would bid me -bye I would leave this part of the country, and pay the surety money. I left her, and again met her the followiug Tuesday morning in Salem, when court was iu session. 4, for the last time, arked her whether she would settle matters or not. Her reply was, ahe knew not what she would do. That night che was in Salem, at Smith’s Hotel, where I | oo for her lodgings and breakfast the next morning. his was our last conversation untilconrt. Shoapveared against me in court, and I was sentenced for thirty days to the county jail. I had said to her beforo we went to- gether the last timo, that if we ever camo together again we would never part unless death separated us. It was while reflecting upon the disgrace of imprisonment, after my release, that I had some thoughts of putting an ond te my existence, yet my mind was not fully up at that time.

I fired at once, without reflec’ upon consequences. When returning towards Salem from the house of Mr. Bilderback, I began to reflect seriously upon the deed committed. I then resolved to put an end to my being by drowning ae in Salem creek ; and while in een study, I saw before me in the road something in the form of a opm rising—it proves s me—I thought at first that it was perhaps { + but es I advanced it kept gen and advancing with me.

Wepnespay, March 2—6 P. M. There was more activity in the stock market to- day. All the coal stocks were freely offered, and the disposition among holders was to sell at the best price current. At the first board Cumberland de- clined 4 per cent; Parker Vein, 7; Phoenix, 4; Penn- sylvania, 3; Nicaragua Transit, 4; Harlem, j; Huad- on River Railroad, §; Panama Railroad, 2. Michigan Central Railroad advanced { per cent. New Creek was pretty well sustainod, in the face of very large sales. The tendency is downward, and no decided effort is made to arrest it. At the second board Ni- Cnragua fl of 1 per coat; Cumbccland Coal, 1; terrible foeling over Parker Vein, 2; Harlem, 4; Erie Railroad, 4; Hud- son River Railroad, §; Long Island, 1j. The bears are putting out contracts very largely, and there is very little doubt but that the course of the market will be in their favor. The money market was ex- ceedingly tight today, and there was a good deal of shinning around the street. Stock hypothecated stands @ poor chance, and holders are daily called upon to pay up, or make good the margin. We un- derstand that large quantities of Cumberland are bypothecated at fifty per cent., and the probability is that heavy lots will come out when that point is reached. The receipts at the officeof the Assistant Treasurer of this port, to-day, amounted to $154,351 59; pay- ments, $61,349 09—balance, $5,361,264 86. The gross earnings of the Hudson River Railroad Company, for the month of February, 1863, amounted to $126,000. The receipts of the New York and Erie Railroad Company, for the month of February, 1853, amounted to $308,569 19, against $201,870 88 for the same month in 1862, showing an increase of $106,698 81 for the month this year. Books of subscription will be opened on the 10th inst., at Messra. W. & J. O'Brien's office, 33 Wall street, to the stock of the Clyde and Great Sodus Bay Railroad Company. The proposed amount of capital to be raised at present, $150,000. The Presi- dent of the company is Leander 8. Ketchum, of Clyde, and the New York directors are Win. M- Lummis and Wm. H. Lyon. ‘The imports into this port, in the three days eud- ing this P. M., have been as follows:— pobtter 10 canks. Bleaching powder—50 casks. Cof- 545 Coal—?,916 tons. Cheese—266 cases.

The falling off is attributed to a strike- Now, let us see how the facta hold out. The strike took place last week; consequently did not affect the business antecedent to that time; and as no report has been received since that of the week preceding that of the 19th February, the remedy does not suit the disease. When we get the returns ending the 26th February, the strike may then show its influ- ence. It is the prevalent opinion that the company must eventhally become embarrassed. ‘Ihe transac- tions of the managers do not seem to bear the test of a close scrutiny. The public never can be satisfied with the sale of the company’s capital stock at twenty-five per cent discount, for the purpose of pay- ing off the bonds held by the directors, which had been dishonored by the failure of the Maryland Mining Company, and purchased at a heavy discount by the getters up of the Cumberland Company. Let us look a little further, and ask how the large sum of $500,000 due a banker—(who refused te compro- mise, and considered himself as much entitled to re- ceive his pay in full as any of those more intimately connected with the management of the company’s affairs)—is to be raised ? ‘The Juniata Coal and Iron Company yesterday elected as Directors for the ensuing year, Hon. David R. Porter, Gen. Charles M. Reed, A. P. Wilson, Jo seph Kemp, and John W. Tilford, of Pennsylvania, and Mesers. N. B. Wilbur, John Stanton, Chauncey Bush, and J. Warren Boody, of this city.

The President of the Parker Vein Coal Company has submitted the following report to the stockhold- ersand the public generally, showing the present and prospective position of the company’s affairs: — Parxer Vuin Coat Company. By the recent amendments to the ter of tho Par- ker Vein Coal Company. granted b: State of Mary- land, in addition to other powers, t! y areautho- rized to hold land to an extent of 7,000 acres. Some time since a company wax formed, under the title of the New York, Baltimore and Alexandria Steamship Com- pany, for the purpose of running steamers, expressly adapted for the eoal traffic, between Baltimore and Alex- andria and Now York, which company entered into a contract to convey the coal minod by the Parker Vein Coal Company upon favorable terms. However, it was thought best for the Parker Vein Coal Company to secure the control of these steamers, for which purpose nego- tiations wore entored into for their transfer to this com- any, which has been effected upon advantageous terms; by © meana they will be enabled to transport their coal with regularity and certainty, and at 9 less expense than by the present means of transportation, and enable them to supply ocean steamships and other large oon- sumers upon terms more favorable than in the power of other companies. These steamers, now building, to tho number of fifteen, are in various states of progress. The ty of the company may therefore this be described: 1700 acrea of land, containing the 16 feet vein, at $1,000 per 5,100 acres of land. containing the “thinner vein,” of finer quality, as well as fireclay - and iron ore, ......+ seseers 650,000 15 steamsbips, of 600 tons each, at $100 per POD. csesesereersreveerenes sees 750,000 $3,000,000 Of this amount, there remains to be paid, im instalments, as the steamships progress in building... . . $425,000 Due upon the la of the by inatalments, extending to 500,000 Making tho total indebtedness of the company $025,000 To meet this amount, the payment of which is spread over the above time, the directors have, by resolution, appropriated ten thousand shares of the capital stock of the company, which are held by the Treasurer, and the pro- ceeds of the sale, from time to time, to be applied to the poymen: and extinguishment of this debt; or, as will ap- pear by the annexed estimates, the earnings of the com- pany will be snfficient to pay the debt now owing in less than two years. ‘The land belonging to the Parker Vein Coal Company, containing the “thick or mammoth vein,” and which 1s known to yicld at the raje of twenty thousand tons of coal per sere, borders within a distance of from two hundred to four hundred yards, for three miles, upon the George’s Creck Railroad," now nearly completed; and the company’s ‘thinner vein’ has been universally acknow- ledged au inferior to none, it belog: from its purity, much in d by manufacturers; and it may be asserted that no company possessing bituminous coal lands can send their produce to the great markets for that commo- dity cheaper, or with greater facility, than the Parker Vein Coal Company. The only Imit {othe amount of coal which the company ean forward to market is the want of facilities for tho transportation of their produce to tide-water, and thia matter will soon be remedied by ad- ditional means of trapsportation, now being constructed by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company, also the erection of a depot at Cumberland, for tl esa penko and Uhio Canal; and the immediate construction of the Alexandria ard 'Westernport Railroad to Westernport, which unites with the Alexandria and Manassus Gap Railroad, and will furnish direct transportation for the coal from the George's Creek Valley region to tido-wator at Alexandria, which, by this route, is fifty-eight miles arcr than by the Baltimore and Uhio Railroad to tide- x at Paltimore; this route will afford facilities for the transportation of grexter quantities of coal, and materially decrease the cost of the Company's coal at tide-water. ‘The fifteen steamships of the company will be ready for service and placed upon the line as follows:—Four of thom this prevent month, three in April, three in May, threo in June, and two in July, and posers the capacity of carry- ing yer ADDUM. ee. e eee ee oes cove sesees e+ 216,000 tons.
