SEDUCTION AND MURDER.
A Preciotu Villain.
K most rcvoltingcaseof crime came to our
knowledge somedays since, which we are
called upon to record as the facts were stat
ed. Some five year since, a man calling
himself Patrick 1). Cavanaugh, on Irishman
bv birth, came to our county, and obtained
a 'situation in tlc capacity of teacher in the
neighborhood of the Cross Roads, in the
western part of RockviHe District. He
there became acquainted, with a Mrs. Scott,
widow of the hit; Thornis Beall Scott. Af
ter seveial ineffectual attemps lo gain tlifi
consent of the relatives of the lady for a un
ion in marriage, it was discovered that he
had seduced her. and while in a delicate
tarnation, they were united, and lived togeth
er until about six months since, when ihey
separated.
I he cause was soon ascertained : he had
seduced his step daughter, a girl about fif
teen years of age, who lived in the family.
Nlie atlOTulcd a school kept by her fadier-in
law, as a pupil, until she gave birth lo a
rliild, on the 3d of October instant. The
day afier ihis occurrence, she appeared in
the village of Darueslnwn where the school
was kept, and aroused a suspicion in those
who had known her situation. She had
he.-a foiced from her bed to allay suspicion.
A warrant was obtained on 1 huisday last,
and Cavanaugh was arrested ut his house,
when a search was made for the child.
The prisoner slated that the child had died,
and was buried in the garden nearlhe house.
The then proceeded lo disinter the body of
the child, when the prisoner interfered, say
ing -liiat the body was so mangled that it
could not be recognised as a human be
J II .
The skull and lower jaw of the infant,
upon being examined by Dr. Beall and oth
ers, was found broken, and the body other
wise mutilated. The jury upon the case
gave verdict according to the evidence 'that
the child came to iis death by violence in-
l cted by Cavanaugh,' who was fully com
mitted to Montgomery county jail, to await
his tiial al the November term of the coun
ty court for the murder ol the child of Mar
m or A. K. Scntt. The prisoner is about

"Will you take your oath of thai?''
"What do you mean?"

Here the whole table caught the alarm,
and "speak out, speak out," resounded on
all sides.

NEWSPAPER BORROWERS
.1 gook Juke.
A joke, which we copy for the amuse
ment of those who annoy the readers of a
newspaper by sending to borrow it, ippcars
in the ualumore sun, as a sort ol commen
tary to a paragraph which appeared in the
Ledger. A Mr. S sat reading the paper at
home in the morning, before leaving for his
store, when the boy of a neighbor entered,
with the usual errand upon his tongue, which
he delivered in the usual way. 'Mr. 8.,
pappy wants lo borrow your Sun a few
minutes this morning.' 'Tell your pappy,'
replied Mr. S, 'that I am using my Sun,
but,' drawing a penny from his pocket and
handin? it to the boy, there's a penny.

until his neighbor had first perused it, he
subscribed for two copies, and had one reg

cheeked his horse in the hottest cannonades
to light his pipe at the linstock of the gun
ner, the piece was probably, not the woise
nerved. Towards the close of the campaign
of France, the infirmities of age at one mo
ment almost induced him to contemplate the
abandonment of his command, and lo retire
into the Netherlands; but the spirit triumph
ed over the tlesh, and, though unable to re
main in the saddle for the last attack on
Montmartre, he gave his orders with cilm
ness and precision from a carriage. His
appearance on this occasion must have tax
ed the gravity of his staff; for, to protect his
eyes, then in a state of violent inflaination,
the grisly veteran had replaced his cocked
hat by'a French lady's bonnet and veil!"
PRIVATE T-EOtji.NCr
An Irish mendicant once piesented him
self al the door of one of the parish manses
in the presbytery of Haddington, and inquir
ed with an air of mystery, if the minister were
al home. The servant said he was, and
added, that if he had any message for hint he
would carry it up: "No," said the man, "I
waat to see the minister himself." Mr.
was accordingly called, and on making his
ppearance he demanded ol Pat the nature
of his business. "Och! says he, glancing
look towards the servant. "I want a word
in saciet wid verself, plasc yer riv'rence.
He was accordingly conducted into the nun
ister's study, where, after the door had been
carefully shut, he proceeded to unfold his
rrand in a low whisper, lie said, that as
he was approaching the village he olieervecl
notice on the toil-bnr, prohibiting putiiic
begging within the bounds of the parish, and
that lie was himself a beggai; 'but, plasc
ver anor." said he, "I don't waul lo be af-

made bowld to speak a word to ye in private

As Charles had anticipated, the exhtlerateil
conquerors, clalcii beyond measure wiih the
acquisition of so fine a prize, poured into
his vessel in crowds cheering and huzzaing;
and not foreseeing any danger, they left but
very few men on board their ship.
Now was the moment for Charles, who,
giving his men the signal sprang at their
heaJ on board the opposing vessel; while
some fteized the arms which had been left
in profusion on her dock, and with which
they soon overpowcied the few men lefl on
board, the others, by a simultaneous move
ment, relieved her from the grapplings,
whii-r. united the two vessels. Our hero
now having the command of the French
vessel, seized the helmn, and placing ner
out of boarding distance, hailed, with the
voice of a conqueror, the discomfitied crowd
of Frenchmen who were left, on hoard the
peaceful barV he had just quilted, and sum

THE RESULT OF AN EXECUTION
A letter from Stockholm of tho 3d ull
says "Yestetday the execution of a man,
named BreuJeldt, took place for murder, iob
hcrv. and incendiarism. Two curious e-
vents marked this punishment. In Sweden
the pain of death eoti'ists in decollation with
an axe, and for this purpose the delinquent
is placed on a block, belore Inch a trench
is dug, into which the head falls, and where
the body of the culprit i afterward, thrown,
and dien covered over with earth. There
exists among the common people a sliange
belief that the blood of a decapitated person
taken internally is a sovereign cute for epilep
sy, and the custom handed down from time
immemorial is to permit the spectators lo
take the blood. As soon as Breitleldls
head had fallen, an elderly peasant woman
rushed forward with a morsel of bread in her
hand, to soak it in the sanguinary stream
spouting from the trunk, but just as she was
stretching forth her hand oneof her fits seiz
ed her, and she fell dead into the trench.
The other incident which marked the day
was caused by a quarrel which arose be
tween a norter and a carpenter. The for
mer at last gave the latter a blow in the face,

him a violent blow with an axe, and split his

IRON STEAM SHIP.
The sttcr ess of Lieut. IIi'xtkk's exper
iment of subnirrged wheels for war steamers
has lieei. so far proved by the performance
of "Union" thai the Government has author
ised the construction of another vessel on
the same plan at Pittsburgh. This new
steamer is to be of iron and of the following
dimensions 185 feel long, with a depth of
nineteen feet, and thirty-two, feel beam.
Shf w ill measure nine bundled or a thous
and tons bur hen. Lieut. Hunter will him
self superintend the building of her.
The i'rincetoii, recently built under the
superintendence of Capt. Stockton with
submerged propellers at the stern, is said lo
move with great case and swiftness. If it
shall be found that both plans are good and
that submerged wheels at the sides or sub
merged propellers at the stern may be used
with efficiency, a great improvement will be
secured in the construction of .var steamers.
No other nation has yet demonstrated the ef
ficiency of either plan in a satisfactory manner.
The use of iron in the construction of war
steamers is another thing worthy of especial
notice, If the coal and iron of Great Bri
tain have been, as some sny, the chief ele
ments of her greatness and die main supports
of hcrasecndaneyWer the nations of Europe,
the new use to which those important agents
may be put in the construction and propul
sion of war vessels must add a value to them
heretofore unknown. In respect to a pro
fuse supply of iron and coal no country it
more hiclily favoured than onr own; and we
may wiih reason look, forward to the reali
.alion of the vast advantages which these
natural resources furnish. A stable and con

RARE VISIT
On Wednesday last says the Portsmouth
Journal a strange animal with a head out
of the water somewhat resembling a horse's
but a tittle shatter, was discovered in our
river between Portsmouth nnd Piscataqua
bridges. Messrs. William and Joseph
Huntress wert in pursuit of il, and fired at
it several times without apparent effect.
Thursday morning he was again discovered
about a mile below Piseataqua bridge. Af
ter being fired at several times, the animal,
moaning loudly, made for the shore, when
he was captured. It was found to be oue
of the largest size hair teals, the vitl'LIXA
or sea calf. It was 8 feet 7 inches in length
girth 6 feet 0 inches, and weighed about -600
lbs. The general length of this apecie
full grown is from five lo six feet.
