on the person of Mrs. Harriet J. Allen.-
seems, according to the Cotirant, t.b:it on the
day previous to the murder, Mrs. Allen had
been to New Haven with Hotchkiss to ob-
taitia hill oltlivfirce from her husband whom
she left about two years since and had since
gcnerallylived with Hotchkiss, as is stip-
posed tn terms of co-habitation. The bill
was granted, but had not been prepared in
due form by the clerk, when they returned
home. It was their agreement when she
should obtain a bill, they would be married.
In the morning aftertheir return. the inatter
was talked over. but he was not disposed to
he so soon married; nevertheless he wished
her to continue to live with him as she had
done. She told him that if he would not bl.‘
mfll‘l‘lPtl the following Sabbath evening, she
would leave his house the next morning with
her mother, saying “ that she had lived in sin
long enougli." Thcv retired about the usu-
al time, he to one bed room. and Sl1et0 the
other with her mother. who for the time was
there. having been to New Haven, to assist in
obtaining the bill.
Early in thcmornin: he was no and nbmtl
the house. and_ went to the bed ofMrs. Allen
and asked her to get up, for what purpose it
did not appear by any testimony before thr
iury; she-tlecli-netl. He» left the room. and
after awhile returned with the axe.and being
again denied in his rcquest,he raised the axe,
and with repeated choppings ended her life.
He then retired to his own room, and thrust
his large pocket knife into the side of his
neck, by which he. opcned the jugular vein,
after which he walked a few steps towards
the door. as the bloody tracks of his foot in-

FIFTEEN DAYS LATER FROM
EUROPE.
The steamship Acadia, Captain Edward
Miller. arrived at Boston Sriturdiiy morning.
at 8 o'clock. She left Liverpool at 3 o'clock
on the afternoon of the 4th, and nf course
was 12 days and 17 hours from dock to clock.
She was detained about 10 hours at Halifax,
‘and consequently has made the voyage in a
little over 12 days of sailing.
The steamship President also arrived here
yesterday morning, having sailed from Lon-
don on the 1st, making her passage in about
sixteen days and it half. __ i
The news from Liverpool is highly im

Her Royal Highness the princess Angus-
ta. died on the evening of the 25th Septem-
ber. She had borne a long and painful ill-
ncss with uncommon paticncc,and an uncom-
plaining temper. Her last moments were
attended by all the members of theRoyal fam-
ily who were in London.
The question of peace or war in Europe
is still undetermined. 'I'hc military prepa-
rations are still progressing on as large a
scale as ever, and the tone of the*publicjour-
iials are little less pacific- Yet from the cotirse
wliich events are taking, we feel the utmost
confidence in saying that the peace ofEuropc
will be preserved.

flect upon that deuioniacal spirit which lead

whose purity and moral cxct-llence. is seldom
equalled iii the political lllS'n!y ofnntinns--when
lllP_V shall realize that their ltasc and imprinti-

conscience, said. "my putiislimetit is greater
than I can bear"? \Vhen Mr. Van Buren in
the retirement of a country village, in his mo-

promises and violated faith—bis selfish and sor-

Loco Foco DISTRICT (.'u.\'vt:t~"rio:v.—'I‘liis
affair came olflast week at Stamford zicconling
to previous notice. It came off in a stylc, too,
worthy t:f'the waning fortunes of this tottering
administration. The multitude, was estimated,
we understand, at about 300 all told, with ii fair
sprinkling of Ilic disinterested ones. I’. M’s.

The procession which went from this place. iri-
cluding those that came from the north and east
of us, c_unsisted of5 teams, with between 30 and
40 of the uiilerrijicd dcrizocrocy. In the proces-
sion was a long boat on wheels. with bare polls.
labelled on the sides ‘Pennsylvania.’ This was
_a demonstration of joy at their glorious victory
in the Key Stone state, in which they lost 3
tiieniber of Congress. and 3 or 4 thousand on
the popular vote. The procession excited the
sympathies of all who saw it. It moved on to
Stamford without any acquisition of numbers.
On their return they stopped at the Norwalk
Hotel. Some the more patriotic who manned
the hare-polled Pennsylvania. seemed perfect-
ly intoxitzaterl with enthusiasm or some
uiore potent influence. and when they stepped
from their craft upon tetra firma. their attack-
ment to her gunwail was apparently very strong
and very necessary.’ .
The cream of the matter is notyct told.-—
Wlien they had all assembled in the Town
House, (which by the way afforded, plenty of
elbow room.) and the‘gases began to rise, the
chirnney acltlfllly took fire—anotber attestation

it was from one ar all the elements of Loco Fo-
coism combined, is n questioti we leave for those
acquainted with c/timistry to decide.
