LOVE, JEALOUSY MURDER AND

Dor ty taf evening xya the ecerie of ft
. murder which ha excited the tndat general
interest on nil bands, ana wdiclv w another
fetirful chapter in the historyoflove and orime.

' appears bien paying ultentjon for Rome je-
yiod back to a young gJrJOarneJ Margaret
Garraly. tngaged fts a, servant by Charles
SY. Tucker, at the fiortli Ward Hotel.
According to reparw, the affair had pro
. xeeded so f;ir fts to, lead to an arrangement
fat their w&rriage.' During the same peri
jd, however,-it seem Uiat Drum had been
V.also oguged ( another girl, and on Sunday
-dast, wae married to her, and came to reside
in Plane street, hear Bleecker. Last even
ing Margaret informed some of her fcllojv
servants that the intended to kill him. and
' showed them n carving k.iife wliich she hud
secured for that purpose. About half past
21 o'clock, Drum ana his wife were walking
- ,1'n Pinna street, near the corner of New, and
' Margaret approached them saying, "now for
it,' Edwin,1 pfonged the "tsamng knife into
him to the depth of nine inches.; The unfor-
. . lunate man gave a shudder, walked on lor
short distance, and suddenly fell dead.
j The body of the murdered man was taken
-' to the Watch House, when Dra. Dougherty
and Grant being cullei in, the wound wus
examined, and louiid to be in the neighbor-
, hood of the; heart 1 After committing the
' deed,' Margaret according to reports, proce
eded home and informed the servants what
had doiw,"r-,'i ,
l The affair has created the greatest exoite
. .meot, and a thousand reporte are iu circula
tioit and-the character of the Intercourse
' between the murdreaj and her victim. Her
jptirpose was evidently one ot premeditation,
. Tout whether the result of vindictive passion
or oi a -muia aiseasea." we are unable to
, deUrraine..?We,undeij(land Jhat when she
- , murocd home she expressed no regret for
the deed, or commiesemtion for the victim. It
ia said, that alio- exhibited the knife after
, wards in an exulting manner, and said that
.aha should drown Iterself or so t6 New York.
The geoeraj impression on all sides ' appears
, , io oe mat snc nas commuted suicide, and

. ' - - THE PRESS.
The Press is unfaithful anJ corrupt, be-
cute (he people vill not nut a in it in inde -
pendmce.; The great mass, of mankind aro
uuun mjo iiiiiuwnuc ui pnKsiun, rauicr uian
reason, in their political views, and hence
they require to have their prejudice; flutter
ed. Privute interest is thus advanced by
ministering to these feelings, and therefore
we 6nd the organs of one party anDrovinir
of every measure, however atrocious or un
constitutional advocated by its leaders, aril
condemning every measure, never mind how
just and lawful, espoused by its opponents.
van a country prosper under such a
wretched perversion of the blessings designed
to be secured by a free press ? Are we for-
ever to be the snort ofdemnaogues and sel
fish aspirants, who know no other 'motive of
action but their advancement nnd glory ?
Is if not worth some sacrifice on the part : of
every lover of truth and the welfare of the
republic, that the press should be regenera
ted? Many will answer in the affirmative,
but they almost despair of seeing it accom
plished. We aro aware of the difficulties
that interpose in conducting an independent
journal. The displeasure of patrons is con
stantly held up in terraren over the editor's
fien. l he laconic phrase, ' Stop my paper,'1
rom i subscriber has a magic influence in
stopping an editor's ink. For. oursclf, we
can with propriety declare that we never
told a wholesome truth in our columns,
which did not cost us six dollars. But nev
ertheless, ihe work is practicable, though,
like allgr-'at reforms, it will reauire lime Tor
its accomplishment, and the sustaining influ
ence of the tiatriolic and disinterested. Nar.

ANOTHER SCIENTIFIC WONDER.
DR. J. S. IIOUGTON'S
GREAT DYSPEPSIA CURURJ
The True Digestive J?luid, or Gastric Juice t
Prepared from Rennet, 6r the fourth aloniaoh of the
Ox, after directions of Baron Llrblc, the great
Physiological Chemist, by J. S. Houghton, M.
D.. Philadelphia. Pa, ' "'
This Is a great Natural Remedy for Indigestion,
and Dyspepsia, curing after Nature's own Method,
b) Nature's own Agent, the Gastric Juice. Pepsin
is ho chief element, or Orent Digesting Principle
of the Gastric Juice iho Solvent of the Food, the
Purifying, Preserving, and Stimulating Agent of
the Stomach and rIntvtines Jtis extracted from
the Digestive Stomach of the Ox, thus forming an
Artificial Digestive Fluid, precisely like ths natunl
Gastric Juice, in its Chcraica.1 powers, and furnish
ing a complete 'and pcrlect substitute for It. By
the aid of tnls preparation, the pains and evils of in
dlgeaifori and Dyspepsia are removed just as tlicv
would be by a healthy Stomach. It is doing wonders
for Dyspeptics, curing cases of debility, emaciation,
nervous decline and Dyspeptic, consumption, sup
posed to bo on inn verge of the grave The Scien
tific Kv'ldence upon which it is based, is in the
highest degree curious and remarkable.
Baron Lcieblg, in his celebrated work on Animal
Chemistry, says : "An Artificial Digestive Fluid,
analogous to the Gastric Juice, may be prepared from
the mucous membrane of the stomach of the 0, in
which various articles of food, as meat and eggs,
will be tqflened, changed, and digested, jutt in the
eamt manner a they would be in the human itomach."
Half teaspoonful of pure Pepsin, infos, d or dis
olved in water, wil digest or dissolve fire Pounde
Roasi Bit in about two hours out of the Stom
ach. Dr. Houghton's Pepsin, is sold by nearly all the
dealers in fine drugs and popujar Ijledicine, through
out the United States. It is prepared in Powder
and in Fluid form and io Prescription vials for the
use of Physicians.
Private Circulars, for the use of Physicians, may
be obtained of Dr Houghton or his Agents, descri
bing the whole process of preparation and eiving
the authorities anon which the claims of this new
remedy are based. As it is not s sesret remedy, no
objection can be raised against its use by Physicians
in respectablo standing and regular practice. Price
in Fluid form, One Dollar per bottle.
