He would introduce to the audieuce the Rev. W. H. Milburn, the “Blind Preacher," » Mr, MILBURN then rose and recited his experiences during @ tour in Europe, whither he had gone to have operations performed on his eyes, but which, unfortunately, had been fruitless, so far as recover- ing his eyesight was concerned. Among the gentle- man's remiuisconces he dweit at considerable length upon his stay in Prussia, giving a very 1nterestin, aesoription of the style of life existing and the kind of atmospicre breathed in that country. The gentleman spoke of the court customs, and tncidentally referred to Minister Bancroft, whose works he asserted were not generally know in Eng- land, and related an anecdote of a lady who said that America was beginning to have a literature, basing that opinion upon the fact that she had been reading “Uncle Tom’s Cabin.” The lecturer spoke of the celebrated Dr. Draper, and gave a description of the man and some incidents showing how extensive was his practice. Mr. Mil- burn then explained an operation which Graeffer, of Berlin, had performed upon his eyes, and explained in very powerful language the sensation which passed through his mind, when, after a while, ne was aple to see & candle, and also referred in a thrilling manner to the despair which he realized when, owing to @ constitutional weakuess, the operas tion subsequently proved to be of no avail, NEW YORK HISTOAICAL SOCIETY.

Almest a Doeble Marder—Oue Man Killed by a Jealous Husband, Who Alse Shoots Hie Wife. Tn that sequestered and unfrequented border of New Jersey which is crowned by tho historic Pale sades and washed by the waters of the Hudson river, ata point nearly opposite the village of Yonkers, a deed of blood was perpetrated at an early hour yes- terday morping, resulting in the instant death of a young man, besides the infliction of injuries on & female that may prove fatal, The first intelligence of the crime was imparted to the Yonkers police at about nine o'clock yesterday morning, by a man named James Kain, living on the New Jersey side of the river, who informed Sergeant Flandreau, who was then tn command, that a mur- der had been committed in his neighborhood, He stated that John Dickey, who lived next door to him, had woke him up in the nuhtand informed him that he had “done for two of them.’? On hear+ ing this he at once went to Dickey’s house, and there found that @ man named Colin Colquhon had been shot and killed, and that Dickey’s wife had also been wounded, she being apparently ina dying condition, Kain further stated that the mur aerer had crossed tho river some hours previously and had taken the first train from Yonkers to the city. After the statement of Kain had been vouched for a police officer was despatched to New York, having in his posseaston a full descrip. tion of the murderer, Not more than two hours had ela} when word was again brougit to tue police stauon that Dickey had returned from New York on the half-past ten o'clock train, and that he had been seen in the village by numerous citizens. At this juncture allt the patroimen of the force who could possibly be spared from the polls were ordered to scour the village, and in this they were headed by Sergeant Mangin, who seemed determined that the mansiayer should not escape. So closely were the ofMfcora on the murderer's track that on the former arriving at Glenwood they saw the object of their search in @ boat on the river, having mado about one-third of the distance to the Jersey shore, Securing another boat without delay, roandsman Austin and patrol- man Waters quickly disguised themseives, and, starting in pursuit, overhauled Dickey, who had a doctor in his boat, and brought him to Yonkers, where he is now held subject tothe demands of the authorities of New Jersey. THe SCKNE OF THE TRAGEDY yesterday afternoon presented a truly shocking appearance, impressive of wild dissipation, ignor- ance and lawlessness. In a scantily turnished and comfortiess room on the ground floor of a two story, rickety fraine building lay the body of Colquhowa, as he had fallen, pierced through the face with a pistol ball. Surrounding the head on tho floor was a large Roo) of coagulated blood, erence that the leaden messenger in its course had severed an important artery, Deceased was dreased in his ordinary working clothes, having only divested himself of one boot, which still remained where he had placed it, near the atove, On a rudely con- structed table, stationed in corner of the apart. ment, sata plate, on which were some bread and meat, apparently untouched, while on the not over clean mantelpiece stood a bottle containing whiskey, and from which numerous draughts had evidentiy been taken the previous might. In auother portion of the butiding, and on an upper floor, Dickey’s wite was found lying, suf- foring intensely from the effects of a shot inflicted. by her husband immediately after killing Cotquhown. Sho also complained of internal inju- ries. The woman is about forty years old, and lier family consists of threo children, the oldest being a girl of fourteen. The physician who was being taken across the river by Dickey when the latter was arrested examined the woman, and found that the ball had entered her groin and had passed out through the fleshy part of tie thigh, causing a dan- gerous wound, Marks of violence were also found on her body, particularly in the region of the abdo- men, which presente a horrible mass of bruises, It may here be mentioned that the murdered man was a native of Ireland, and had been in this country but a few months. His age was about twenty- seven, HISTORY OF THE MURDER.

We sat in our room together and had along talk, I wanted him to take another drink, as it was All Hallow lve, but he would not. We sat there until it was twelve o'clock.

STATEMENT OF THR MURDERER, On being brought to the ag ad station Dickey, after being fully advised of the importance of any- thing he ight say, made the following voluntary statement:—“I am a native of Ireland; am about forty years of age, and by trade an ongineer. Iam married, and my wife’s name is Mary Anne Dickey, ‘This morning, about one o'clock, I was awakened by a noise made down stairs, where 1 knew my boarders were drinking. On fecling for my wife I found sho was not in bed, although she had come to bed the same time I did. {then took a six barrelled revolver froma trunk, and going down s.airsI met Mooney, who tried to prevent me from te m the other part of the house. 1 looked ‘hrough the window and saw them both on the floor, I went in, with the revolver in my hand, and sald to Colquhoun, ‘Ive caught you at last,’ and point- ing the revolver at hym. He said, ‘Don’t do it,’ I said, ‘I cannot help it,’ and drawing the trigger Ishot him. I then turned around and said to my wiie ‘i've got you too’, but she did not speak, and | shot her, 1 did not fire more than once at eltuer of them. After the shooting was over! calied the neighbors and told them what I had done. I did not look whether my wife was dead or not, but I heard afterwards thatshe was only scared. At five o’ciock this morning I left with a neighbor and came to Yonkers, in order to bring a doctor to my wire, after which 1 went to New York and tola my boes how matters stood.
