VARIOUS DESTRUCTIVE FIRES, FOUR PERSONS BURNED 10 DEATH, rs Woman Murdered---Veteran Killed, &o., &0., &. The Philadelphia Murders. PatLapsvraia, April 29, 1853, The Grand Jury made a special presentment this morn. ing, in relation to the Rink murder, embracing all the evidence fastening the crime upon Spring, which is Geemed convincing of the innocence of Jerome Feckert, arrested on suspicion of the murder, and his discharge is recommended, The decision of the Court upon the motions for a new trial, and arrest of judgment in the case of John Caple and Carson Emmos, for the murder of Sochan, was pro- nounced by Judge Allison overruling both. The prisoners were then asked whether they had anyt to say wh; sentence of death should not be passed. ir counsel read papers from each, protesting their innocence, that of Emmos stating that Cuple told fim that Soohan pashed against and struck him, and that then he stabbed Soohan. Sentence of death was then pronounced by Judge Allison. The Grand Jury founda true bill against Spring for the murder of Rink, and ignored the bill charging Feckert with the crime.’ The latter is still held for an assault, with intent to kill, on Wilson, a cab driver. Destructive Fire in_Rochester—Four Lives Lost. Rocuxsrer, April 29, 1853, About one e’clock this morning the Rochester House, a temperance hotel, was found to be on fire, and sad to re- late, four domestics, three women and one boy, lost their lives. ‘There were about 120 perrons in the hotel, many of them families, who were boarders, and the scene of confusion and dismay which oceurred is inconceivable. Nothing remained of those who perished but a fow charred bones, sufficient to enable the surgeon to designate them. Wo learn only the names of Catharine Conlan, aged about forty years, and James Pheoney, fourteen yeats old. ‘The building was recently purchased by J. M. French for $25,500, and was insured for $10,000. It was kept by Bryan, Cone & Co., asa temperance house,” About two. thicds'of the building, ands large amount of personal Property was destroyed |The fre originated in the cook Ing and drying room. A large ntable was also burned, but its contents was saved. The loss in the Rochester House cannot be ascertained at present. ‘The Fires in Albany. Aupany, April 29, 1853, At the fire in this city yesterday morning, Mr. Quina, one of the persons who was compelled to vacate the premises destroyed, was robbed of $100, which was locked up in a bureau. Our city is infested with incendiaries. At 2 o’clock this morning a two story frame building, in the centre of a block of wooden tenements in Hawk street, was set on fire and destroyed. The adjoining property was badly jorched. but saved by great exertions. Loss $900. ‘The Mayor has offered a reward of $500 for the arrest of the incendia: Destructive Fire at Pawtucket. Provipener, R. I., April 29, 1868, A large fire occurred in Pawtucket, Massachusetts, last evening. Some cotton waste in the storehouse of Par. tridge’s factory, took fire from spontaneous combustion, and the flames spread to the adjoining buildings, destroy’ ing a » containing a large quantity of ma- chinery, 0 by the Pawtucket Bank, two dwelling aioe carpenter's shop, &c.

Her house had been shut up since then, but was opened yesterday, when the woman was found with her throat cut, and the body brutally mangled. The house had been ransacked, From the British Provinces. THE SEAL FISHERY—THE SUBMARINE TELEGRAPH— THE TRIAA OF THE CREW OF THR SHIP WINOHES- TER, ETC. Boston, April 29, 1853. Halifax papers of the 25th inst. are received. Late accounts from Newfoundland state that the seal fishery had been the most successful known for many years. Already 250,000 seals had been obtained. The Newfoundland papers state that the Submarine Telegraph Company will petition the Assembly to increase their capital to £300,000, with a view of extending lines to New York and Canada. The trial of Thomas Clark, one of the crew of the New York ship Winchester, for abuse and felonious assault on some of the female passengers on the pas- wage from Liverpool, for which the crew were mob! in the streets of Halifax, had resulted in his acquittal. The American consul, Mr. Norton, was present. e defence raised a point whether the court had jurisdiction of an otfence committed on board an American vessel bound to the United States, and only putting in there from stress of weather. The court reserved a decision. Several others of the crew are to be tried on a similar charge. PARTICULARS RELATIVE TO THE TRIAL OF THE CREW OF THE SHIP WINCHESTER, ETC. Haurax, April 29, 1853, In tho trial of the crew of the ship Winchester, for outrages at sea upon the female passengers, Kingman, the boatswain, pleaded that he was an American, bornin Boston, The Court admitted the validity of the plea, by discharging him. Linten was acquitted—he having not been proved a British subject. Clark, a naturalized American, born in Ireland, was twice tried upon different charges, and was acquitted by different juries. It is sup- posed the indictments against the others will be pro- ceeded with. The Halifax rioters will be tried to-morrow. Break in the Erie Canal. Syracuse, April 29, 1853, There isa break in the canal some miles east of this place, at the aqueduct in Orrville. Some thirty feet gave way on the heel-path side, A boat, which was passing as the break occurred, was broken assunder. The break pill be repaired by to insrrow night, they ray at the col lector’s office. About one hundred boats are lying still, waiting. From Boston, AMENDMENTS TO THE MASSACHUSETTS LIQUOR LAW —FATAL RAILROAD ACCIDENT. Boston, April 29, 1853. The House to-day, in committee of the whole, discuss- ed sundry amendments to the Liquor bill. Among the amendments adopted was one making the owner or owners of a building in which intoxicating Mquors are sold, contrary to the provisions of the law, lable toa fine of $100. if the said sale is with the knowledge o consent of the owner, after due notice thereof, by an officer named in the act. For a second conviction th» owner is liable toa fine of $100, and imprisonment fo three months in the House of Correction. Xesterday, Samuel G. Woodbridge, eighty-four yoars old, was run over by a train, near the Reading depot, and killed instantly. His body was shockingly mangled. From the South. THE SOUTHERN MAIL—CHIEF JUSTICE TANEY, ETC. Bauriwore, April 29, 1853, New Orleans papers of Saturday have been received, but those of Friday are still due. The citizens of Savannah, at a recent public meeting, refused to subscribe to the Atlanta and Mississippi rail- road. The Washington rumor that Chief Justice Taney in tends resigning his seat in the Supreme Court, is denied here. He has recovered from bis late sickness, and has resumed the discharge of his dutivs in the Supreme Court. * Markets.

NO FOREIGN MISSIONS DECIDED UPON—APPLICANTS BECOMING UNEASY—JOHN ©. CALHOUN, JR., AS SECRETARY OF LEGATION—THE GARAY COMPANY PROTEST AGAINST THE 8LOO CONTRACT, ETC. ‘Wasminaton, April 29—10 P. M. A great many rumors of foreign missions having been filled are current since the adjournment of the Cabinet to-day. We learn, howover, from s most reliable source, that they are utterly groundless, no foreign appointments having been decided upon, The general policy of our foreign affairs was fully discussed and the merits of aspi- rants for missions, chargeships, and consulates, reviewed. Next week will probably finish the business, but mesn- time tho applicants are very uneasy, and their hotel bills are running up frightfully. Dr. John Westcott, of Florida, has been appointed Sur- veyor-General of that State. Dr. John C. Calhoun, of Florida, a son of the deceased statesman, has been appointed Secretary of Legation either to France or Spain. Florida must be a healthy State, as her doctors appear to be desirous of procuring some business less destructive to life, as rapidly as pos- sible, ‘The New York Post Offices still hang fire, The New Orleans Company, the holders of the Garay grant, havejentered formal protest against the Sloo contract, as in direct viola tion of their rights.

Wasuincton, April 29—Midnight. Among the applicants for the Inspector Generalship resigned by General ScCall, are Captain H. L. Scott, senior aid to Gen. Scott, Major W. G. Freeman, Colonel Thomas, and Colonel W. W. S. Bliss, all of the staff of the army, and all good whigs. There are also in the field Colonel Steptoe, Colonel C. F. Smith, Captain Bragg, and Colonel B. 8. Roberts, democrats,‘and of the line of the army. The contest is quite lively, The Union of this morning, to some extent, defends the proclamation of Governor Lane, of New Mexico. The ad- ministration, however, will settle the matter without difficulty. The territory will either be surrendered to Mexico, or submitted to the arbitration pro- vided by treaty. We venture to say the President ix hardly the man to take any ungenerous advantage of a helpless neighbor. His policy is to conciliate the confl- dence of Mexico as far as possible. We should not, therefore, be surprised if the act of Governor Lane were officially disavowed, anda new man promptly sent out totake his place. His idea in this proclamation was, perbaps, that asa specimen of fillibustering it would be approved of by Gen. Pierce. R. W. McDingal, of Albany, has filed his papers for the Buenos Ayres consulate and left. There are twenty other applicants for the place. The foreign schedule is still under advisement. Tho cabinet will perhaps make a large haul next week. The expectants are getting impatient. It is rumored that John Van Buren is to get something handsomo, and may perbaps have the opportunity of receiving his father offi- cially somewhere in Europe, before the summer is over, ‘The President and cabinet are in apple pie order. If the sick juror recovers by Monday, the Gardner trial will perhaps be submitted to the jury by next Saturday. ‘The evidence of last Tuesday and Wednesday has created an intense interest in this extraordinary case, A.B.

FROM THE REGULAR NEWSPAPER AGENT. ‘Wasunnaton, April 29, 1853, John P, Wiley has been appointed Marshal, and John McGregor, Attorney, for the eastern district of Virginia. The foreign appointments, it is believed, have not yet been made. Whoever telegraphed Meade’s and Dix’s ap- pointments last night was too fast. According to general expectation, a considerable num- ber of Land, Treasury and Post Office clerks are to be re- leased from close confinement in a day or two, BY MAIL. Governor Lane’s Movements in New Mexico The Policy of the Administration. (From the Washington Union, (supposed organ of Gen, Pierce,) April 29. Tho vague reports which have been lately received from New Mexico have caused much hasty and improper com: ment in some quarters. In hot hast® to espouse the cause of Mexico, a large portion of the whig press has already denounced Governor Lane’s action as unauthor- ized annexation, while some have gone so far as to stig. matize tt as a violent and piratical spoliation of the ter- ritory of a neighboring nation. We would adyise the opposition journals to be more cautious, and atleast wait for more definite information. At all events, they should examine the public records be fore they commit themselves on a most important point We do not undertake to say at the present moment whether Governor Lane has acted with due caution and circumepection, or whether the exigency was so sud- den and pressing as to require prompt action on his part, without waiting for a diplomatic understanding with Mexico through the State Department. That’ point we leave until further particulars reach us ; but, in the meantime, we deny that Governor Lane has been guilty of forcible annexation, or has committed a spoliation on Mexican territory, as the whig press in many quarters has alleged. Ho is’ a whig, and recelved his appointment from the late whig administration; but that shall not in- duce us to arsail him wrongly, for we will never refuse to maintain the rights of our country in obedience to the command of party vindictiveness. There is no doubt but that the district of country which Governor Lane has seized on belongs to the United States, and isa part of the territory of New Mexiso. ‘The whig press is mistaken, The late administration did not succeed in surrendering the district in question to the Mexicans. In order to sustain Mr. Bartlett, the late cammissioner, against Mr. Gray, the surveyor, and Colo- nel Graham, the head of the scientific corps, the late administration did all it could do to transfer to Mexico the valley of Mesilla, but Congress interfered, and pro- vented the consummation of the transfer by stopping the supplies of the boundary commission, on the ground that the commissioner was acting improperly, and was running a line different from that prescribed by the treaty, theieby giving a portion of the territory of New Mexico to the Mexican State of Chihuahua; and it is that distriet of country which Governor Lane has taken possession of by proclamation. By the terms of the treaty, the joint commission to mark the boundary was to consist of ‘8 commissioner and surveyor appointed by each republic; but after Colonel Weller’s recall, Mr. Bartlett, who sue. ceeded him, claimed to be the sole representative of the United States, and instead of running the line prescribed by the treaty, he negotiated one thirty-four miles further north, and proceeded to mark it, in defiance of his asso: ciate, Mr. Gray, and of Col. Graham, who succeded Mr. Gray, until the'Senate, being informed of the facts, took measures to stop his caroer. Before that there never had been any difficulty as to the southern boundary of New Mexico or the northern boundary of Chihua- hua. The Mexican edict fixing the boundary ; the recognition of the public officers of New Moxico’ and Chihuahua, and Disturnell’s map, referred to in the trea- ty—all agree in fixing the line seven or eight miles north of El Paso; but Mr. Bartlett d to place it thirty- four miles further north, and thereby give to. Mexico the valley of Mesilla, which has always under the juris- diction of New’ Mexico while it was a portion of the Mexican republic. If Mr. Bartlett had been empowered to make such an agreement, and Congress had not inter. fered to provent its consummation, then the valley of Meailla might have been lost to us; but his associate on the commission, whore consent was necessary to give validity to his acts, withheld his assent; and when the late administration undertook to sustain Mr. Bartlett's illegal course, the late Congress, under the lead of the Senate's Committee on Foreign’ Relations, stopped the supplies, and forced the recall of the commission. The late admin{stration should baye then preceeded promptly toarrive at some understanding with the Mexican gov- ernment, and to prevent any disturbance growing out of disputed jurisdiction on the line before it was definitely marked; but it acted with its charasteristic imbecility and carelessness, and after four years of extravagant mismanagement, left the whole subject undisposed of, and in a worse condition than at the end of the Mexican war. ‘Washington Gossip through a Whig Medium. {From the Washington Republic. (ox President Fill: more’s organ,) April 2 Having often of late heard it inquired how came Peter G. Washington, Esq., to clutch the prize of the As- sistant Secretaryship of the Treasury, #0 soon after the new administration entered onthe discharge of their duties, and with such apparent ease, Itake it for granted that there exists no little curiosity, in the publio mind, tolearn why and how his installation into his present position was brought about.

Not long since it was considered defi- nitely settled that Mr. Pruyn would turn up ‘in the vo- cative,”” and Mr. Corning came on to change the current thus setting against his friend’s hopes. su in stemming it for the present, though there {s notelling how soon the prospects of Gen. Dix may again Something should certainly be done for ex Governor Hubbard, of Maine, and the Hon, Virgil D. Parris, of the same State, who are still here, and that, too, in “little Jess than no timo,” as warm weather is rapidly approach- ing im these latitudes, for they woar an air tel‘ing that tarrying here so unreasonably is anything but grate ful to their more northern acclimation. With the oxoep- tion of three or four gentlemen from Buifalo and that vicinity, one or two from Kentucky aud Tennossée, and a score from States immediately in this vicinity, the few hundreds from a distance who are now hore after office are much fresher arrivals—not yet csrrying on thoir countenances the evidence of hope deferred, which mak- eth the heart sick. The principle upon which the administration have de- termined to give out the offices in the interior of New York—almost entirely according to the preponderance of the influence of the wings in the particular locality—will be very likely to result in furnishing that quarter well nigh with “soft” appointees alone, the “hards’ being wholly without strength out of the city, except in two or three’ river counties, wherein the federsl government's patronage is essentially trifling. The rule is an honest and just ruling, however it may fail to please gentlemen who, under it, are doomed to disappointment. At the last cabinet meeting, among the subjects dis- cussed was the propriety of ceasing to be so ‘ close’? re- lative to their inteations, and more especially with refer- ence to changes of officers actually made, No decision was made upon it. In the Treasury Department there neems to prevail a sort of notion that enopping olf an oficial head is crime hardly second to the bodily mur- der of the unfortunate, if one can judge from the great pains taken to keep the knowledge of the deed from the public as long as possible, ‘The President, with the savice of the cabinet, has ap- pointed the following postmasters, viz.:— At Lansing, Michigan, Van S.

Sm—I am reported by one of your correspondenta as being here in “hot pursuit of the office of Commissioner of Public Buildings.’” Allow me to say that your corres- pondent does'me injustice, and that Iam not here to seek that or any other office at the hands of the adminis- tration. Some of my constituents are deeply interested in an important question, soon to be decided, in which I represent their interests. I am a candidate for re-election to Congress. and am more anxious to serve the people of Kentucky, than occupy any place which the President could give me, With great respect, am Your obedient servant, R. H, STANTON, New England Methodist Conference. FIRST DAY. The New England Annual Conference of the Methodist Fpiscopal Church assembled at Ipswich, Mass., on the 27th of April, Bishop Janes presiding. Tho session was opened with appropriate religious service and the admin- istration of the Lord’s Supper. The venerable D. Kilburn officiated at the tablo, and was assisted in the distribution of the olements by several of the older mombera of the Conference. Most of the members were present, aud the occasion was one of deep interest. ‘As those exercises cecupied more than an hour, but lit- tle business was done beyond the organization of the body and the appointment of committees. Rey, Wm. R. Bagnall was elected Secretary, and Rev. Simon Boyden re-elected Assistant, but tho latter having served the Confereneo in that capacity for twelve years, respectfnily declined, and Rey. J. A. Adams was chosen in his stead. It was yoted that eight o'clock be the hour for meeting in tho morning, and twelve o'clock the hour of adjoura- ment. There will probably for the present be but one ses- sion a day. ‘A Committee of Nomination was raised, and commit- tees ordered on the following, among other subjects :— Education, Slavery, Temperance, Bible Cause, Tract Cause, Sunday Schools, Missions, Preachers’ Aid, and Public Worship. ‘The question «Who remain on trial” was taken up, phen the committee appointed +t the previous conference to examine candidates in the course of study prescribed made their report, which was highly creditable to all concerned. The course of study required of all candidates ig now quite thorough, covering @ period of four years, with examinations annually. A short random discussion sprang up on the propriety or impropriety of ministers engaging in secular pursuits, and was participated in by B. 'T. Taylor, George Dunbar, and others. TELEGRAPHIC. p Boston, April 20, 1853. The New England Methodist Conference Anti-Slavery Society, in session at Ipswich, held a meeting last night, and discussed the anti slavery quostion as connected with the Methodist Church South and North. Rey. J. D, Brrvag, one of the speakers, said that he claimed to be the constant and uncompromising friend of the slave, He was a Union man, too, He went for his country, not “right or wrong,”’ but “however bound- ed.” Ho commented on the resolutions passed by our last Annual Conference, recommending a rule in our dis- cipline prohibiting the reception of voluntary slave- holders into the church, and excluding all such there- from after a limited period. The time would come when the church must either carry out these resolutions or recede from the position it had taken. It would never do the latter—it had aworn eternal hate to slavery, and its utter extermination had been decreed. Rey. J. Porter argued that the Methodist Church was sound in its anti-sJavery doctrines, and that its present rule, carried out, must ‘ultimately drive slavery from the church. Some slaveholders had remained in the church under the delusive idea that agitation would cease, and they could retain thoir slaves unmolested, but it could not be. No definite action was taken, ay the matter will come up in the conference itself. Hatt Storm 1x On10—One of the severest hail storms ever witnessed in theye parts visited us on Sunday afternoon. In the city the bail was small, and did but very little damage, but in the country, for miles around, the damage was immense.

PROVISIONS OF THE CONSTITUTION AND LAW OF CONGBESS—LISTS OF VICE-PRESIDENTS AND PRRSI- DENTS OF THB SENATE PRO TEM. The provisions of the constitution relating to the Vice President and President of the Senate pro tem. are as follows :— The third section of the first article of the constitution declares—‘‘ The Vice President of the United States shall be President of the Senate, bug shall have no vote, unless they be equally divided, ‘The Senate shall choose their other efficers, and also w Presitent pro in the absence of the Vice President, or when he exereiae the office of President of tite United States. Judge Story, in his coramentaries, remarks :— The necessity of providing fo of in the oftce of President, doubtloss gave rie to the crestion Of the office of Vice President. We may add, that in the convention which framed the constitution the idea of a Vice President, to be chosen at the same time with the President, and in case of death or disability to fill his place, was first suggested by a grand committee composed of one member from each State, to whom the question of the Executive was referred. In the draft which this committee reported, the President of the Senate was to have fulfilled the function; but by the arucle as agreed to the Viee President was made ex officio President of the Senate. ‘The first section of the second article of the con- stitution provides that— In case of the removal of the President from-office, or of his death, resignation, or inability to discharge the powers and duties of the said office, the same shail do- yolve on the Vice Prosident, and the Congress may, by law, provide for the case of removal, death. resignation, or inability, both of the President and Vice President, de elaring what officer shall then act as President, and such officer shall act accordingly, until the disability be remoy- ed, or a President shall be elected. By the act of Congress of March 1, 1792, it is pro- vided, in pursuance of the powers above given— That in case of a removal, death, resignation, or in- ability, both of the President and Vice President of the United States, the President of the Senate, pro tempore, and in case there shall be no President of the Sonate then the Speaker of the House of Represontativos, for t! time being, shall act as President of the United States until the disability be removed, or a President sbail b elected. The same act also provides for an extra election, in the usual mode, by electoral colleges to be chosen in each State, whenever the offices of President and Vice President shall become vacant. As the consti- tution declares that the President and Vice Presi- dent shall hold their offices during the term of four years, we infer that an extra election would be fora full term, and not for the balance of an unexpired one. Judge Story remarks :— itty iB® omtce ef President shout devolve on the ipeaker, after the Congress for whieh the speaker was chosen iad expired, and before the next meeting of Congress, it might bea question who {sto serve, and whether the Spoaker of the House of Representatives then extinot could be deemed the person intended. The term of Mr. Lynn Boyd, of Kentucky, the late Speaker of the House of Representatives, having expired, Mr. Atchison, of Missouri, now President of the Senate pro tem., is the only person entitled by law to succeed to the Presidency, in case of the death of the President, until another election can be held. Mr. Atchison is a man of moderate eapacity, but of great influence in Missouri, where he leads the de- mocracy opposed to Mr. Benton. He is, we believe, over sixty years of age. We give below a list of the Vice Presidents of the United States, from the adoption of the con- stitution to the death of the late Mr. King. It will be observed that thirteen persons have held the office, and five of the whole number have been citizens of the State of New York. Of these, three bave been Governors of the State, and the other two—Burr and Fillmore—were unsuc- cessful candidates for the same office. The Vice Presidents were natives of the following States, viz.:—Of Masbachusetts, Adams and Gerry; of Vir- ginia, Jefferson, Johnson and Tyler; of New Jersey Burr; of New York, Clinton, Tompkins, Van Buren, and Fillmore; of South Carolina, Calhoun; of Penn- sylvania, Dallas; of North Carolina, King. The survivors at present are four, viz.:—Van Buren, Tyler, Dallas, and Fillmore—the first and last having also been Presidents of the United States.

Intelligence from Novs Scotia. The Legislature of Nova Gcotia has been rather unea~ Peetedly prvrvguca, Unc Iepislative Coumeil having prewi- ously agreed to the resolution granting the usual pay to the members of the Assembly—four dollars per diem The Lieutenant Governor, in alluding to the Quebec an@ Halifax Railroad, observes:—Though a difference of opm fon, conscientiously entertained, delayed the pasange of the railway bills originally introduced, I rejoice that, by the measures finally agreed on, conceived in a conciliae tory spirit, honorable alike to the Legislature and to the Province, ample provision has been made for these great public works, for the completion of which the people of Nova Scotia have evinced a lively interest.” ‘in the measures adopted for the protection of the fisheries, the erection of a lunatic asylum, and for the promotion of other works of public utility,” he said, “the spirit of enlightened: legislation will be recognized; while the people of Cape Breton cannot fail to perceive, in the liberal appropriation made for opening the St. Peter’s Canal, and for connecting them by steam with the rest of the province, proofs of a very sincera desire te elevate the condition of that fine island.”” A report from the committes of the Assembly. inted to investigate the subject, estimates the Britiak nsular fees paid on 2,360 Nova Scotia vessels that em- tared the United States last year, at $0,862-about $2 90 on each; the committee maintaining that the only charge that is authorized is one dollar per vessel. It was stated during the debate which took place, that, computing the value of the cargo which each vessel carried:at only four hundred dollars, the aggregate amount of exports from that province to this country would be about one millies. Of dollars;and one of the members stated, on another oo- casion, that during the last three years he had ex to the United States to the extent of $528,000, and in the same space of time had only imported $195,000, leaving a balance in favor of the country, which came ‘back im cash; while the importa from Great Britain bad amouat- ed to two million dollars, and there had only been ex- ported in return, to the value of $100,000, leaving a ba- nce of $900,000 against the province.

The house was entered in the night by three men, who were disguised as Indians. The ruffians tied the domestics, and shut Mr. K. up ina closet, while one of the ruffians stood guard over him with a pistol. house waa stripped of valuables, and the scamps made good their retreat with their booty; but they were subsequently ar- rested and convicted. The e Principal of the party was noted English burglar, ramed James Dickenson, who also bore the different aliases of Le Byron, Charles Bill, and James Russell. Dickomsen had botore this been convicted of the robbery of the Le Wolfe tomb, at Bristol, R.I. Ha had stripped. the silver plates from the ‘coffins im the tomb. After his term of service had expired, he was convicted of highway robbery in Rhode Island. The next affair in which Dickenson flourished was im the robbery of Mr. Kempton’s house. His term of see- vice in prison, for this offence, expired about eighteem months since. He left Philadelphia shortly after and has not been heard of here until within a day or twa. On the night of the 13th of the present month, & mam med William Beatson, by trade a butcher, was robbed 4 brutally murdered near the village of Cuyahoge Falls, Summit county, Ohio. The supposed murderer was soon after arrested, and from eircumstamces it is al- most certain that he is Dickenson, the perpetrater of the Kempton robbery. The description of the murderer tallies exactly with that of Dickenson. He calls himself James Parks; but his wife admits that he married hee within a year under the name of Dickenson, We learm that the evidence against the alleged murderer is of the Bulletin, April 2. most conclusive character.—Philad.
