He pro poses at an early day to go behind the official record for the purpose of showing that t he pub lic lands are a burden tothe General Govern ment, costing more than they come to. What is Mr Bennett's object in making this avowal? His object is no doubt, by showing that the public lauds are of no advantage to the General Government, to incline members to vote away to the several States that which to the Govern ment is valueless. But if those lands be a bur den to the Government, as Mr Bennet contends, will they not also prove a burden to the States? Can thirty-one competitors, all anxious to sell, dispose of tho lauds better than a single person owning the whole, and not obliged by necessity to force the lauds upon the market at a- time when the demand is not active, and tho sales slow? If Mr Bennett does not mind what he is about he will prove too much for the cause in which he is engaged. If he proves that the public lands are so valueless that they may be donated away by the Government without loss, he is in some danger of also proving that they are so valueless that they are not worth receiv ing by the separate States. Arrival of the Baltic Late from Europe The steamer Baltic arrived at New York on the 12th, from Liverpool. The news; by this arrival is of not much importance. No change in the state of the market. The political news is void of interest. No new battles had occur red between the Turks and Russians.

The war in China was still progressing,, but with little result on either side. The loss of the Imperialists is said to be considerable, while that of the insurgents is small, which gives them confidence. N. C. Mltcai. IxsuiUxce Company. The Eighth Annual Meeting of the members of the North Carolina Mutual Insurance Company was held at their office, in this City, on Tues day, the 10th iust. Tlie following officers were elected for the ensuing year, viz : Col. J. B. G. Roulhae, Presi dent, H. D. Turner, Vice President, S. W. Whiting, Treasurer, John C. Partridge, Secre tary, and J. Hersman, Gen'l Agent. The old Board of Directors were-eleeted. It afforcs us pleasure to record the prosperity of this, the oldest Insurance Company in the State. They have issued, during the past year, about 1,100 policies, have promptly paid losses to the amount of about $9,000, and have a sur plus on hand exceeding $10,000 showing an increase of busiuess of 50 per cent, ou the trans actions of the preceding year. Hal. Standard. Shocking: ."ttarder. It was but a few weeks ago, says the Green brier, (Va.) Era, that we published the mar riage of Iligginbotham, of Raleigh county, to Miss Rebecca Gwin, of Fayette. We have now to record the bridegroom's arrest for the mur der of his wife, almost ere the honeymoon was over. There was some disparity between the ages of the pair 16 or 18 years and the mar riage seems to have been cousumated with mean motives ou the part of the husband. The bride had a property of $3000 or $4000 iu ber own right; and the husband, who seems to be a person of an obtuse and mean mind conceived the idea that by getting her out of the way he could possess her property. Being iit the Blue Sulphur Springs on Christmas day he bought two ounces of arsenic aud a quantity of loaf sugar; and on his return home, administered a dose to his unsuspicious wife. The dose was so large that it caused vomiting, but enough was left on the stomaeh to cause her death in about half an hour. The husband was over-solicitous in hurrying the funeral, which caused her relatives to take the corpse to her mother's in Fayette. Here they resolved upon having a coroner's inquest held over the corpse, and sent for Dr Ilnnter, of Lewisburg, to make an examination. We have not learned the nature of the jury's vir dict, but it was such as authorized his arrest. Dr. II. brought the heart aud stomach of the deceased away with him, and last night sub mitted the contents of the latter to several chemical tests, which conclusively shew the presence of arsenic in large quantities 'Iligginbotham is now in Fayette jail; but as the crime was committed in Raleigh county, he will doubtless be removed thither. Transfer of Property. The spirit of specu lation seems to be rife in BrnnswicK to mij. It is but a short time since we chronicled the sale, bv the Hon. J. J- McKay one or two months'before his death, of the Green Swamp lands in that county, for $10,000; and we now understand that the same tract has been sold to a company for $00,000. It is an extensive tract heavily timbered with cypress.

Wild Race of a Locomotive. Recently on the Miami Railroad a collisiou occurred at Milford. There was no loss of life, but the circumstances were quite remarkable. There had been an unusually heavy fall of snow the night previous, by which the track became heavy and the trains fell behind time at the Milford station. The conductor was on the platform helping the ladies to and from the cars, when the whistle of the Hillsboro freight train was heard, and the locomotive .ecn coin ing around the sharp curve above Milford, at ful! speed. T':e conductor of the freight train was 011 the engine aud told his engineer to check up. The signal was given, but tlie brakes were insufficient to hold the wheels, and the curs came booming down the slippery track with abated but dangerous speed; wheels were reversed, and the conductor and engineer jumped from the engine. A brakeman 011 the mail tram shouted to the passengers to get out, but before they con Id escape the descending locomotive came into the ear with a terrible crash, and went nearly through, splintering wood and iron, but and there's the marvel killing not one of the twenty passengecs, the most of whom had got well forward before the irou Lorsc came thun dering over their scats! When the engineer of the mail train heard the crash of the collision, he supposed his own train would be driven over him, and with his assistants sprang off. The furnace had iust been crammed with wood, and there was a full head of steam on. The force of the blow un coupled the locomotive and tender from the bag gage car, at the same instant jerking the lever and throwing the throttle valve wide opt 11. Away sped the locomotive like an arrow, or, if we might so say, like a fiat of Omnipotence, sweeping down the track at seventy miles an hour! God help any hapless train met or over taken help the city but 14 miles below, for that distance will be devoured in lf minutes ! The escaped Eegine came howling byPlah. ville, visible for an instant to the appalled villa gers switched off into the double track, as light ning from one steel rod to another divergent, and thundered on to the city whose spires mut now have been seen from the iron disc of this fiery cornit but there was none to see, for no rider, or driver, or living human soul had the Engine none. On, straight on, the citv! the city! ! Happily the furnace door flew open, the draught ceased, and a little way above the up per Engine House, ou a heavy up grade, the locomotive's breath was spent; it came to a dead stand and stood there silent and cold, forming as much apart of the still wintry landscape ns the whittened rock and shronded trees on tho hillside above. Cincinnati Commercial. Is Want. Two young gentlemen in the town of Murfreesboi ough are in want of a wife.

One would ima gine so at least, as they have advertised for only one wife between them. "Two young gentlemen are in want of a wife!" Well, if they get her, she will have a double chance to escape becoming "a poor lone widow." TFar r en to n JTews. . ,J i it
