Tlie community was thrown into intense excitement yesterday forenoon by a repot thnt Pura Porter, living two miles east of this place, had murdered his two little girls, ned respectively one and three yesrs. Some of his neighbors arrived soon after and confirmed the report. Porter was living A'ith'his fathcr-iu-law, Henry Flit-kinder, and was in tho rnoui T.lono with the children, cracking hickory nuts, tho children plavicg about the room.

His wife was, at the time, up stairs doing chamber work. Heariui; gome unusual noise she came down and found the children dead and her husband going out with the bloody iiatciict in ins nana. He walked to'I'Ctonia, a distance of five miles, whefe he was arrested and confessed llio murder. He was taken to New Lisbon, jail to await his trial. Ho has long borne a had reputation.

Tho ofllccrs of revenue had dislrAUied ccttain property of tho roads for taxes the ronds brought suit against them for trespass in the stato. courts, nnd obtained a verdict ngainst them the eaeo wns appealed to tho Supreme Court of tho United The question presented was whether, under the one hundred and twenty-second section, of the Internal Itcvonuc act, ns amended by tho act of 1PG0, dividends declared in tho month of December, 1809, but payable in January. 1870, and interest paid in tho month of January, 1870, were liabio to a tax. The decision of tho court settles the question. It is twenty-one years since the Constitution of Indiana was adopted, and many of its features nro behind tho times.

It forbids negroes or mulattoes to enter the State, nnd prescribes a punishment for any one who employs them or gives them any inducement to remain in iho State. Its terms prevent tho passage of any ailequnte election or registration laws, and under its provisions the judges of tho State are becoming the mere creatures of parly. To remedy these evils Constitutional Convention is asked. Official statistics just published at St. Pctersbum show thnt diirins tho past year liver 80.000 persons died of cholera alone in Kussia.

The chief cause is ascribed to the negligence of the authorities. GREAT excitement reigns in Tirrlin over the prospective resicnnlion of Count Uis-mark from the Prussian Council.
