wm "AO KtO their Blstrcailng an Extraordinary due of Suicide Painful Mystery-. Death of Two Penons. About i o'clock on Monday morning, a horse and buggy drove up to the door of the St. Charles Hotel in thts city, from which alighted a well-dressed gentleman and lady. The man on the "watch" at the hotel, answered the parlor-bell as it was rung, and admitted the parties.

The man directed that his horse should be put out, and registering his name in a full round hand, William A. Caldwell and lady, Philadelphia, requesteda room. A front parlor, with bedroom attached, was assigned him, and the par-tics shown to it. When the book-keeper of the Hotel appeared in the morning, his attention was called to the name of the patties, and told the room they occupied. The occupants of the room not appearing at the breakfast table, the servants were ordered to be ready to prepare breakfast for them when it should be called for.

At 10 o'clook, the book-keeper went to their room, waked them and Cald well and the woman with him came down to breakfast. After breakfast, Caldwell gave orders dinner prepared for him at 2 o'clock, and said some of his friends from Kees-ville would be there to dine with him. They did not appear at 2 o'clook, as they appointed, nor did the friends from Keesville make their appearance. Nor did they appear at tea. Tuesday morning late, the book-keeper went again to their room, and Caldwell came to the door.

In reply to the inquiry whether he wished breakfast, he said thev did not feel very well, and would have breakfast sent up to them. Breakfast was sent up accordingly, as were also pieces of pie and cheese in the afternoon. On Tuesday afternoon, Mr. McDonald, the proprietor of the hotel, returned home from several day's absence at the North, and was informed of the unusual conduct of the persons occupying this room, and he determined to call on them. He rapped at the door and was admitted by Caldwell; the woman with him was on the bed, in the adjoining bed-room.

Caldwell remarked carelessly that he was "laying off" there for a short time, had been travelling, Mr. McD. reminded him that he was running up a considerable bill at his house, and also of the strangeness ot his manner. Caldwell replied that he had money enough; and it would be "all right." In the evening Mr. McD.

directed that their bill should be made out, and they requested to vacate the room. (It should be mentioned that daring their stay, they sent several times to the bar for brandy.) The bookkeeper went to the room and rapped repeatedly, but could get no answer, though he could hear the man and wo-, man talking between themselves. Failing to get any answer whatever after repeated trials, he informed the proprietor of the fact, and it was concluded to allow them to remain uncus turbed until morning. In the morning, another attempt was made to get ah answer from the occupants of the room, bat with no better success than the night previ ous, and finally Mr. McD.

resolved to probe the matter. By the aid of a chair he was able raise himself to the swinging window over the bed room door, and looking in he beheld both the man and woman lying in each other's arms, with their throats cut from ear to ear.and pillows and bedding discolored by a large quan tity of blood. The horrible circumstance thus revealed, no time was lost in forcing open the door. Dr. Bontecou and C.

D. Packard soon eifected an entrance. Both bodies were cold and lifeless, and had obviously been quite dead several hours. The scene prosented in the bed-room was one we shall not attempt to describe. A more ghastly and horrible spectacle the mind cannot conceive.

Both were in their ordinary night clothes. The woman was lying in the front part of the bed, her head resting on her arm and partly on the bosom of her companion. The gash in her throat was not deep, and the blood had dropped beneath so that little was on her person. Her countenance was pallid, and marked by a serenity amounting almost to a smile. She had evidently moved only slightly after the cut was made, and then in the strug gles ot death, she was of the middle size in helghtb, hardly ordinarily robust, and apparently aged about 30 years.

By her side on the right lay Caldwell, the most horrid object the eyes ever beheld. He was tall, muscular, well formed, large head, features strongly marked, and the lower part of his face covered with a heavy pair of whiskers- The gash in his throat had severed and laid bare his windpipe, and he had bled most profusely. His face, hands and breast were covered with blood, and his hair and whiskers were clotted together with it. Judging from the position of his limbs, his contortions must have been long and Bevere. By his right side was found a razor, covered with blood and also the razor case.

From the Brooklyn Advertiser. Most of those who attended the Washington street Methodist Church some years, will recollect a tall, handsome female, of exquisite model, who, with her sister, occupied a side pew about two-thirds down the right hand side aisle. She was one well calculated to attract attention. Her mother, a widow, raised at 70 Tillary street. Miss Van Wankle was married to a Mr.

Knapp about 3 years ago. She was then about the age of 21, and not a few envied the favored suitor. Several children were born to them, and we believe Bhe was in mourning for the death of one of them at the time of her violent death. A short time since, she with her husband took a place in Murry street, New York, which place, we regret to say, was a tavern. How she could have condescended to such a means of employment for a livelihood, we cannot imagine.

It was, we learn, while thus employed that Mr. C. ingratiated himself into her affections, with whom she left the city less than two weeks ago. She had a remarkable high Bpirit, and it may be that suffering under the stings of conscience, on account of sacrificing honor, home, family and friends, through the wiles of a seducer, she upbraided him, and her death was the consequence. It is almost a pity that he succeeded, by inflicting death own hand, in deieaung justice.

Verily the way ot the transgressor is hard. Frjni the Albany Journal. Caldwell, the principal actor in the frightful tragedy, while in this city, borrowed money of a gentleman with whom he was slightly ac quainted, leaving, as security, a note purpor ting to be drawn by his brother, W. E. Cald well, of New York.

This note turns out to be a forgery. The deceased had led a life which was pretty sure to end disastrously. A clerk in the office of Secretary of State nanded us the louowing extract lrom the archives of that department: 'William A. Caldwell, born in Washington N. aged 27.

In regard to another member of President Fillmore's Cabinet, the New Orleans Bee thus speaks of Mr. Conrad the newly appointed Secretary of War: Mr.

Conrad brings to the discharge of the functions entrusted to him no ordinary amount of talent. His business capacities sie large and comprehensive; his habits are laborious; industry and assiduity, patient attention and practioal sagacity, are among his prominent qualifications. His mind is thoughtful; Jhis perception rapid and clear; his conclusions are deliberately drawn, after close and accurate survey of the premises. We ventue the assertion that he will fulfil the duties assigned to him. with statesman ship and ability; and that his management of me ar uepanment win add another to the many existing evidences of the entire fitness of a civilian, tor the important and responsible duties attached to it.

New Yoek Democracy. The New York correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger 6ays: The Old Hunkers and Barnburners had a reg-ularpitched battle last evening, at a primary election in the eighth ward. A. gang of "Snort Boys" entered the room where the ballot box was kept, put out the lights; broke up the box, beat the Inspectors, and broke up the meeting in most "admired confusion." The election was for delegates to tho Tammany Hall County Convention. Tbis is the second ineffectual effort to accomplish the object.

Greenwood," in a letter from "Washington, mentions eome peculiarities of Senatorial pronunciations, which are rather odd; For instance. Mr. Clav, and indeed-raanv of the oouinem members, say, and "thar. Mr. Webster says "in-di vid-oo-al" and tur and oneof the Texas Senators says W' for bUT3t.

i glish oonvicts, who were transported from Eng land to Bermuda, and from thence to the United States, by the authorities of that plaoe, have ar rived at New York- Threo of them, Daniel Holsworth, Henry Williams, and Wm. Jenkins, fell into the hands of the police on Tuesday night, when the captain of tho vessel in which they arrived was sent for, and stated their passages were paid by a British offcer, who also furnished each of them with asmallsum of money. They also stated that they had been pardoned on the condition of their coming to this country. One of them was convicted in England for stealing, and another, who was a Stewart on a man-of- war, for striking a superior officer. The Mayor of New Yoik has telegraphed to Washington to know what to do with them.

A letter from New York adds: I am informed, also, that several convicts from Weoklenburg-Strelitz, arrived a day or two ago in a Hamburg, it seems.mey gottheir liberty on condition they would come to the United States. The Mayor compels the captain to take them back again at his own expense. Foreign Governments for some time past, it is well known, have been sending their vagabond and crimnal population to this city, but as they are now playing the game too extensively, it is well that a stop should be put to it at once. A Little Myiterloua. The Cannellton (la.) Economist publishes the following letter: Roue, 1 a.

August 20, 1850, On Saturday last, a case was brought befoie me, as a justice, of somewhat anomalous char acter. One day last week an individual went in to the house, of Lewis Taylor, in Clark township, in Perry county, in the absence of the fam- ly, took lrom the house a black silk dress, a black lustre dress, and another article of female (sloth ing, all of the value $9 60. They were all found in the possession ot an individual whose only disclosed name is "Billy." Billy, however on close female scrutiny turned out to be a female in male attire. The females of Rome. are preparingsuilable apparel for the unfortunate Billy.

GBYSOTT'S IMPROVED EXTRACT OF YELLOW DOCK AND SARSAPARILLA. put up in the largest sized bottles, contains more of the pare Honduras Sar- sapariita man any ottier preparation extant, wnicn is ciemicallv combined wiih the Extract of Yellow Dock, the Extract of Wild Cherry, and the Balsam of Fir, thus making the remedy more thorougly efficient than any other Sarsaparilla before the pub lic. At the same time it is perfectly free from all mineral potsons, wnicn cannot ae said oi any otner of the Sarsaparilla compounds. The invalid should beware of poisons! Mercury, Iron, Quinine, Potash, Iodine, Sulphur, Arsenic, and many other mineral and metanc poisons enter into and xoim the active basis of most of the Sarsaparillas and Panaceas ol the day. Uuysott Compound MX-tract of Ytllow Dock and' Sarsaparilla does no! contain a particle of these substances, as any one can ascertain by applying the neceesaty test.

These poisons may occasionally remove disease, but they so vitiate the blood and completely im pregnate the whole system with their banelul er- iecte, that the first cold, or the first attack of dis ease, prostrates tne patient's strengtn, and sud-iects him or her to the most excruciating torture, and renders another cure almost impossible and hopeless. Let all poisonous Sarsaparilla preparations alone, and use Guysott's Improved Extract ot Yellow uock and barsapanua, wnicn is tnor- oughly efficacious, perfectly harmless and purely vegetable. All kinds of diseases yield to its ge nial influence. Cure of an Aggravated Cae of Erysipelas. Norway, Herkimer 1850.

S. F. Bennett Co. Bentlemen: It is with gret pleacure that I write vou about the very hap py effects of your Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla upon my son, who has long been suffering under that dreadful, loathsome disease, Erysipelas, with which he was attacked in 1848, and was lor sever al months attended by some of our best physicians, who tried their skill perseveringlyior hvemonths without any beneficial effects whatever. He be came reduced to a perfect skeleton.

He had ul cers from his hip to his knee, which were continually discharging disgustinglv offensive matter. Medical skill was baffled. Pyheicians said thai his case was hopeless there could bo nothins done to arrest those terrible, gangrening ulcers. My neighbors and myself thought his dissolution near at hand. One of my neighbors who had cured a child of scrofula with your invaluable medicine, wished me to make trial of it, and more from the restless desire to do something while life lasted, than from any hope nf getting relief, I procured three bottles of your Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla, and commenced using it, and to my astonishment he commenced improving before he had used the third bottle, and before he had used a hall dozsn bottles he could walk out.

He used in a twelve bottles during the year '49, and by October last he was perfectly restored, every vestige of the disease, except tne scars, is removed, and he remains in perfect health up to the present time. His recovery, under the blessing of God, is entirely owing to the use of your Yellow Dock and Sar saparilla, and I assure you that I feel myself under great oDiigations to you, and it is with great joy that I inform you of what your Sarsaparilla has done for my son.

The Journal denied that he had, and manifested a good degree of indignation that we should notice such an trite rumor. It now, however, turns out that our statement was entirely correct. Dr. Bartlett has certainly re- sigitedhis place in the Louisville University, and accepted one New York. What wo said in regard to the rumored offer of the Surgical Chair in the New York School to Dr.

Gross, may or may not be true. Bat from the ex treme sensitiveness manifested by the Dr's. friends, we are still half inclined to think that the rumor would not bear investigation. However, it is a matter of no consequence and the Dr's. friends may have it their own way.

Mozart Society. We have been requested by the Secretary of the Mozart Society to state, that in consequence of the continued warm weather, the absence of several prominent mem bers, and the contemplated departure of others, the summer recess will be prolonged through the month of September. The first meeting will take place on Monday, beptember 30th, when a full attendance of the active members will be expected. 0By the last arrivals from the Isthmus of Panama, intelligence has been received that the Government of Costa Rica, Central America, has made a contract with a company to lun a road from the harbor of Boca del Toro to the Gulf Dulco on the Pacific. If this'projectis carried through, the road will prove a formidable ri.

The Wash ington correspondent of the Louisville Journal has the ungallantry and bad taste to caricature the personal appearances of the amiable and gilied bwedish Miss Bremer, now paying a visit to this country, and recently spending a few days at the capital. He calls her "old, stumpy, and ill-shaped," and says he "suspects" her to be a person "of but little intellect, and less judgment," He also informs the public that at the date of his letter, she had "goneNorlh attended by her younger and fairer satellites, 'Fanny Forester' and 'Grace These coarse remarks upon Miss person, strike us as a very poor exhibition of American courtesy towards an amiable foreign lady, whose writings have touched the sympathies of many lands, and who has visited our shores only in compliance with repeated invita tions. As to what the correspondent S3ys about her intellect and judgment, we think the intelligent public will care very little for an opinion upon the capacity of a foreign authoress, from one who shows himself so unacquainted wilh the female writers of his own country, as not to know that ''Fanny Forester" (formerly Miss Chubbuck, now Mrs. Judson,) has been for some three years a missionary in India, and was, in all probability, in Maulmain when Miss Bremer was at Washington.

The no-party, no-religion, no-condition, no- union, black and white convention met in this place to-day, and to show their utter contempt lor an wnite men ana wmte things, Frederick Douglass was made the presiding officer of the convention; he was, however, assisted by white omcers. Two thousand nersons were Dresent. notmanv of whom, however, were members of the con vention. The convention, being against all churches and all corporations, met in one of nature's fairi est groves. Resolutions were adopted against the North.

against the South, against Free Soil, andagainst almost everything and everybody. The New York Herald says of it: One of the most bare-faced, impudent, and presumptous exhibitions of fanaticism and treason, which was ever perpetrated in any country, occurred at Cazenovia, in thi3 State, yesterday, at the Abolition convention. At this piebald meeting of Socialists and Abolitionists of every hue, color, shade, and sex, cf black spirits and white, blue spirits and gray of trai tors to mis atateanatojtne united States of female philanthropists in breeches, and male sympathizers in petticoats the notoriously de graded fugitive, Fred Douglass, presided, and a numoer oi olack and mulatto niggers and white women officiated as Vice Presidents. The N. Y.

Courier and Enquirer, says: We have received a report by telegraph of the proceedings of the Abolition Convention which assembled at Cazenovia yesterday, but we do not think it worth the space it would occupy in our columns. Gerrit Smith was the ruling spirit, and Frederick Douglass the presiding officer. Several fugitive slaves were present, and an address purporting to come from them, but really written by Mr. Smith, to the slaves at the South was adopted. It exhorts them to steal the horses of their masters, to rob their desks of their money, to steal anything that will aid their escape, to procure fire-arms, if possible, and to murder their masters rather than be foiled in their attempts to escape.

I AUGUST 39, 1850. FBOIQ WASHINGTON. rCorrcsoonilcnce of Ihc Louivillo Courier. Riasonfor not tenting-Speculation in regard to the Fugitive Slave and liasmi ity of the Southern Jicobins and the Abolition ists in the House The Washington Union ad- minin tr its injustice to Mr. Fillmore Changes inthe different Departments, Sc, $'c- Washington, Aug.

23 V. M. V. N. Haldeman: Bear Sir The two Houses of Congress are respectively engrossed with the discussion of the Fugitive Slave Bill in the one, and the Civil and JMplomatic Appropriation bill in the other, with not ranch promise of finally disposing of the two measures for several days to ccme.

Of course, it is exceedingly difficult to write upon these subjects, and still more irksome to your readers to hear the same old tune doled out day after day with little or no variation. For this reason alone, I did not write by yesterday's mail. After the defeat of Mr. l'latt'o amendment to the Fugitive Slave bill, the main feature of which was, that where the owner of a slave failed to recapture the fugitive, the United States should be liable for the payment of the value oi sucn siave; and authorising suit by the owner to be brought for such purpose; and which amendment received but ten votes in the Senate, Judge Underwood, of youi State, introduced a substitute for the entire bil It is infinitely preferable to Mr. Mason'e bill, and was supported by Mr.

Underwood in a speech of much power and effect. His object seems to have been, to have afforded to the slave States the strongest possible guaranty, in carrying out the Constitutional provisions for the recovery of fugi tive slaves, and yet to enforce those provisions legal enactment, in the least offensive and objectionable manner, that his clear legal perceptions euuld dictate. And if his' substitute is not adop. ted, it will not be because he has not indisputably established that it is for the interest of the slave States and the owners of slaves, who are constantly subjected to the plundering propensities of the Abolitionists, that it should be accepted by the Senate. It is due to many of the Senators from the free States, to say that they have exhibited a most praiseworthy disposition to allow those most in terested in this important measure, to settle its detail among themselves; expressing a willingness to vote for that bill, which in the estimation of the Senators from the slave States, will be most ac ceptasle to them and to their constituents.

There are indeed exceptions; but they are with men who are for plunging the country into anarchy and discoid, and who have no care for consequenoes, qo that their objects are entertained and their ambition administered unto. Such, however, will find out their impotency ere long, and be visited with the almost universal execrations of an in dignant people. You can form no idea of the scheming and ras. calily that is going on in the House of Represen tatives among some of the Jacobins and Abo iitionists, to defeat every measure that is calcula- z.ea to anay tne excitement snd agitation that is pervading the country. Men, who, to be judged jy the standard of thsir professions in debate before Congress, you would suppose, would cheer fully suffer roariytdom and regard the tortures of trie ractt a Dieting, rataer tnan pee another men oi free territory surrendered up to si ivery, are traffi ing and dickering daily with Southern men, t-" give thf-m any extent ot territory they may ask, il they will only strike out of the Texds boundary bill the en millions of duiiars proposed to be paid to 1 exae.

And tnese unprincipled aooution representatives, hrpe in this way, if in no other, so to mutilate and render obnoxious this moat imporuat of all the Sen.tte's bills that the Senate will nev er concur in ttieir amendments, and thus have the bill tall, etween the disagreement ot the two Houses. I do not allude to this, because I be lieve such infamjus conduct will bs countenanced by the m'jjruy of the House of representatives, -t lor the purpose of calling upon those Representatives from the slave S.ates, who have been thus approached, to come out and expose Ihevillany of the peisons making the dishonest and insulting proposition. Tie country should ltnow who these hypocrites and dastardly agitators are, trr-u their constituent in the free States might drive them with disgrace from the Halls of legislation; or by re-electing them, ehate their infamy, and throw afTall disguise that the people of the st ues nvty know precisely what they have got to meet, and where to encounter their" fot-s who are for overthrowing all the barriers of the constitution which hsve been thrown up for their prottction. These cannot, and will not be concealed, Tbey ate known toothers besides those making and receiving the propositions, and will bs fearlessly exposed, for the safety of our political institutions demand that the exposure should be made. This Texas boundary bill is the key stoneof the arch of peact, hat we all hope-soon to see spanning our national horizon, with all the colors and beauties of the rainbow.

II it is struck out, the arch becomes a mass of ruins, and ths hopes of the nation will be swallowed up iu despair. The man or set of men then, who for sectional and frnatical ends, approaches the Representatives of this free people with any such propositions as I have alluded to, is little less than a traitor, and he who either entertains such proposition or conceals ils author from public odium and contempt, should share but little better in the estimation of those, who are for preserving the Union at every hazard. There are others less corrupt than those to whom allusion has already been made, who are busily employed canvassing the House to see if all the fag ends of opposition, ultraism, and disappointment cannot be united upon some terms, into an efToit to strike out the present boundary proposed by the Senate bill, and thuo cast the whole subject afloat again, upon the troubled ocean of uncertainty. They know that if ihb boundary can only once be defeated, it will be impossible to bring those who thus defeat it, to unite upon a substitute. For instance, the Jacobins are for the whole of the Territory of New Mexico claimed by Texas, including Santa Fe.

audarrainst surrendering one foot of it to be made a part of iNew Mexico, upon any terms or conditions, or for any sum of money that can be named. While the Abolitionists, the natural allies of me JacoDios in their work ot destruction, deny that Texas has any right, claim or title to any portion of the Territory East of the Kio Grande, that she must be confined to tbeir construction as to what is her present boundary, and as the two extremes will have rejected the midway and conciliatory line adopted by an overwhelming vote in the Senate, all idea of a compiomise between them will be as futile as the hope, that either the one laction or the other will ever become honeat, patriotic or consistent legislators. I admit there are those who are filled with fair and trembling, least the one or the other of these schemes to destroy the Texas Boundary bill will succeed; but I do not partake in the least of such apprehension. 'The Senate is determined to hold the House of Representatives to its fell and lust share of respon sibility before the country; and iu order to do that willasaent to no adjournment whateve up to the 4th day of March next, unless these measures are all saustactoriiy disposed ot, by ihe popular branch of Congress. Those therefore, who hope they can cover up iheir political and legislative turpitude under ths refuge of an adjournment, will find themselves deceivedjand it will be better both for themselvesa? individuals, and for the rights and interests of the country, that they are trifling with, if they at once make a virtue of necessity, and settle this controversy of a sectional nature, in the same spirit as has been manifested eo practically by the Senate of the United -States.

The Washington Union of this morning, reluc- tii.v.j auiima uiai ujey nave uuue lujustice to 1UI. Fillmore and his Cabinet, by doubting their desire to nave an tne benate bills pass the House of Kep resentatii-es, and ooncedes that the Administra tion is not only mr tnem ail, but through their influence that the Wilmot Proviso will ho dfooio in the House. This of itself, if no other proof wum ue aimuueu, is ouincieat to silence tne calumnies, that'have been so unsparingly heaped up- uu i. icoiucm uy ouou jjsumgogues as rxitcnie, in charging him with being an Abolitionist, and at war in all his.views and feelings, with the constitutional rights of the South. Before this session is over, it will be susceptible of demonstration by ihe record, that there are Representatives from slave S.

lies, who by their coalescing with the Abolitionists, are more deadly inimical to the "S- a mm, all that they chaiged uo- on ulr. tillm even had itnoti.er-n disproved.

The nrfoitunate victim of nereoiiary disease, wiin swoneu giauus, vhluucu smews, and bones half lious has been restored to health and rigor. The scrofulouspatient, covered with ulcers, loathsome to himself and to his atterdants, has been made whole. Hundreds of persons, who had groaned hopelessly lor eors under cutaneous snd giaiiduUr rlts-orders, (Ironic rbeumetism, and many other cem-plaints rp-inging from a derangement of tho secretive nrpntmsini thf- circulation, have been raised as it were fivra the rack of disease, ard now. with regeneraied constitutions, gladly testify to the efficacy of is inesti mable preparation. "TKUTH IS STRANGER THAN FICTION." The attention of the reader is called to the following astonishing cure, effected by the ue of Sind's Sarsaparilla: This to certify that I have a colored woman who haf been efflieted for the last five years with Scrofula, and snd ail the remedies I used, had no effect in arresting the progress of the complaint; on the contrary, she constantly grew worse; ard after expending between S79 and SSO with physicians, besides uMng other popular remedies without success, till the disease had eaten away the cartilage of her nose, made its appearance on various paits of her body, and had finally commenced its ravages in thi roof of hermouth.

Tn this dreadful situation, wilh prospect of death staring her in the face, I stated her case lo Dr. Disos-way the agent for Sands' Sarsaparilla in Newbern, Jj. bswhom I was advised to use lhat ai t'c'e; and to my surprise and that of my neighbors, to whom her case was known, alter usine four and a half bottles, she was restond to peifect that in the space of three weeks, and was aole to work in two weeks from the time shs mmenced taking it. In witness of the truth ofthls statement, I have here-unto eflixed my name, this of Sf-ptember, 1847. JOSEFH McCOTTEK, J.
