I From the New York New*.] A FloSern Borgia—Horrible Depm-rl-ty—Wholesale murder br Poison— Strange and Mtartling Incidents— Confeaelen and Deatli of tfce Mur» derees. An attentive correspondent from the scene of the following unparalleled incidents, writes us as follows :
Goshen, Ulster Co., N. Y., May 8,1858. 7b ths Editor of the AVu> York Daily Afau>* : I send you a detailed statement ot a Strange tragedy which has taken place near us, and which I perceive you have noticed briefly in your paper to-day. 1 knew ami know well all the parties I have mentioned. The facts in the case, not stated upon hearsay, 1 have learned from the District Attorney. The confesdou was made to Mr. Wood, the pastor of the church to which Mrs. W. belonged, and by the District Attorney told to me, with a request that I should write them out for the press. Yours, truly. Mrs. Phebe Westlake, formerly of Ulster County, whose maiden name was Irwin, aged about fortv-live years, died at Chester, in Orange County, New York, on the 7th inst., no doubt from the effect of poison taken for the purpose of self-destruction. Phebe had lived in Chester ten or twelve years. She was industrious, and knew how to do all manner of women’s work, and was able and willing to do it well. Withal she was professedly pious. She gained friends in the best families in Chester, and when any of them needed help, they thought it a loss if they could not get Phebe. About twenty years ago, we hear, her husband died suddenly. A paper of arsenic was found in his pocket, and upon a post-mortem examination arsenic was found in his stomach. It was supposed he had committed suicide, and no fu ther action or inquiry was had. Four or five years ago, Mr. Pelscr, who kept a hotel in Chester, died of erysipelas. He was a widower, and had but one daughter at home, a noble young woman, who before that time had been allianced to Mr. Hiram Colwell, a wealthy and respectable drover, well known in Orange County. She, and her father’s assistant, Mr. Heard, thought it best to secure Phebe, as cook iu the hotel, and they did so. Shortly after Phebe came there, Miss I’elser was taken sick with some strange disease, that her physician could not understand. Her only sister, and her husband, Mr. Clark, were sent for, and came from the South, and took the management of Mr. Pelser’s business and property at Chester. From that time, Phebe was left mainly to nurse ami care for the sick and dying Miss Pelser. She lingered and died under circumstances to induce strange suspicions, but no one suspected her faithful nurse, Phebe. About the time of her death Mr. Colwell received an affectionate letter, while he was at the West bringing cattle, purporting to come from Miss Pelser, but at a time when it is known she could not write, requesting him, among other things, to remember Phebe for her kindness to Miss Pelser. Last fall Phebe was employed as a domestic in the house of John B. Tuthill, a respectable merchant of Chester, in view of the prospective confinement of his wife, who was the only daughter of the late Francis Tuthill, Esq.—little Martha, as all who knew her, and many knew and loved her—called her. She was confined; her babe never knew life. Some unusual symptoms attended her case. Dr. Smith, her physician, said they indicated poison; but yet they might be the convulsions which sometimes attended parturition. Pfiebe washer nurse, and she could not be Suspeoteu. Martha died, and “ Blossom and bough lie withered in one blast.” Mr. John B. Tuthill’s family being thus broken up—for little Martha was all he had—he went to board with bis brother and partner in business, Mr. Charles S. Tuth'dl, and Phebe was duly transferred to that establishment as cook and maid of all worK. On the 1st of April last, Mr. Fuller, & clerk in fhe Tuthills’ store, took possession of Mr. John B. Tuthill’s house under an arrangement that Mr. John B. Tuttle was to board with him. Mr. Fuller had no family but his wife. Phebe was thus thrown out of employment, but still she was retained temporarily between Mr. Tuthill’sand Mr. Fuller’s. Phebe did many acts of kindness for both Mrs. Tuthill and Mrs. Fuller, and carried delicacies to and from them. Ou the 6th day of April last M r - Fuller had provided for dinner a can o.f preserved corn and beans. They were not ^11 eaten at dinner- Pl^ciae was at Mr. Fuller’s. After tea, and after Mr. Fuller had gone to business, she sv^gested to Mrs. Fuller that the corn and heaps might spoil, and they might as well eat the little there was left. Mrs. Fuller consented, and Phebe brought up two small plates of corn and beans, one of which she ate herself, and the other Mrs. Fuller ate. That evening Mrs. Fuller was taken sick, with symptoms indicating poison. She died shortly after. No one could be suspected. Her husband loved her. He had no one else to love. Phebe was kind, obliging, assiduous and affection* ate, and remained by Mrs. Fuller to the end, Who could suspect her? After the death of Mrs. Fuller, Phebe remained temporarily at Mr. Charles S. Tuthill’s, where both the brothers were perforce brought into the family. Some ten or twelve days ago both the Tuthills and the wife of Mr. Charles S., also a Mrs. Derrick—an Irish woman—with whose husband Phebe had had some difficulty about porterage, were taken sick with symntoms nearly akin to those of Miss Pelser, little Martha, and Mrs. Puller. They have been all treated on the hypothesis of poison. The brothers Tuthill are out about their business. Mrs. Charles S. Tuthill is ^oing well, and Mrs. Derrick is still dangerously

Tt»e Want of the Times.” It was the remark of a wise man of old. that “there is nothing new under the sun.” This observation is peculiarly applicable to the present chrysalis state of the Black Republican party. From the days of Jefferson to the present time, the opposition to the Democracy have regarded the construction of a new and powerful party as the “ want of the times.” The opposition now to the Democratic party, its principles and policy, is no more virulent or zealous than it ever has
been.
The bitterness and malignancy which char acterized the old Federal party in its contests with the Democracy are reproduced, in a modified form, in the Republican party of the present day. The old leaven of Federalism still animates the opposition to Democracy. The fathers eat sour grapes which have set their children’s teeth on edge. Over all the Democracy have triumphed. Its policy has ever met with the sympathy of the people. Its leading measures have had to encounter fierce opposition upon their adoption, but their wisdom aud adaptation to the necessities and welfare of the country have finally extorted the approval of their opponents The experience of the past is applicable to the present. Four years ago the Nebraska Bill met with a more fierce denunciation, with the prophecy that it would anni hilate the party, than the Kansas Bill which has just been adopted. The latter measure has passed through a fiery ordeal of opposition, aud its opponents now will hereafter indorse the “correct principles” upon which it isbised. But does the “ want of the times ” demand a reorganization of parties? Is not the party which has safely conducted the Republic thus far, and whose policy has developed its unexampled prosperity, the safest to confide the future destinies of the country? The New York Journal of Commerce most felicitously shows up the various motives and considerations which animate the incongruous elements that compose the opposition to the Democracy, in their efforts to form a grand organization which shall obtain political ascendency. It says : It is exceedingly amusing to see such presses as the Richmond Whig, the New York Commercial Advertiser, and the Buffalo Commercial Advertiser, agreeing with the New York Tribune, and other Republican papers, on the subject of a “ reconstruction of parties” for the next Presidential
the 1 athers of the Republic, by destroying as it were the Supreme Court, to say the- least, is • dangerous experiment, especially when attempted by a set of degeeerntfc Black Republican fanatics, and should be condemned" by * every patriot ahd lover of the Union. As to the editor of the teaching tfr#, people of the South wh&t is their interest, it is but reasonable to suppose that the slaveholders know as much about slavery, and what is their tenuity terest in the premises, as the editor of the Citizen, who, perhaps, was never in a slave' State in hm
life.

Suspicions began to thicken about Phebe. Last Monday she was taken violently ill with the same symptoms. On Friday morning she died. In her last agonies she said, “ She had sprinkled a little arsenic on John B. Tuthill's toast; that she knew there teas poison on the window sill near where his soup sat, and it might have blown in ; and that she sprinkled a Uttle arsenic on Mrs. Fuller's corn and beans, and farther said not The grave has closed over Phebe and her victims. No more of the facts will probably ever be known. Her motives must be left to conjecture, and imagination must fill up this tale of horrors.

oes for the reconstruction because it will give to
epublican principles additional power and influence; another, because it will destroy aud defeat the Republican party; and others for divers reasons too numerous to be mentioned. The Com mercials (both of them) think the “ Republican party have of late taken a broader and less sectional ground,” and our Commercial, here in New York, thinks “it is quite possible for that organization, without any sacrifice of essential princi-
ples, to become the nucleus of such a united Op-
position party as the country needs,” and as (the Richmond Whig says) is the “ great want of the times.” Considering that the wants, as it emphatically says, a party which will prevent the Republicans from acquiring ascendency in national politics, this opinion of our city cotemporary seems a little foggy- But it may all come out
right, notwithstanding the different uses to which it is proposed, in different quarters, to put this
new party.
It is worthy of note, that, in the late discussions of this topic, less stress is laid upon the Democratie element than was generally done a few weeks ago. Are the Democrats to be excluded from this fraternization of politicians, and deuied admission and fellowship? Is a party, numbering among its Presidential aspirants Crittenden, Seward, Banks, and shall we not also add Fremont, so full of great men that Douglas la to be excluded? Or, nave recent events demonstrated that the latter prefers other associations, and declines to subscribe to this great “want of the times,” 8 new political party, to embrace all the old Republican and American leaders? The last supposition is the more probable reason for the cold shoulder which the plotters have lately given to the anti-Lecompton Democracy-
slavery by answering, in a satisfactory manner, the following questions : 1st. Why is it that the colored peonfo in Jamaica, in the Northern States, and in alrpirts of the world, where they are free, have neglected to improve the advantages afforded them? 2d. Why is it that the labor of a free negro in the North is so much less productive than that of a white man? 3d. Why is it that free white labor has heretofore failed in its efforts to compete with slave labor in the raising of cotton, and in the cheapness of production of all other products grown under a tropical sun? .. 4th. What is to be done with the slavesincase of emancipatiou? 5th. Is negro equality practicable? In other words, should all laws making a distinction between the two races.be repealed?

I do not intend to bandy epithets or make use of harsh language toward the honorable gentleman, especially as I am told he is a member of the church. I shall only say that he is egregiously mistaken when he says that he took dinner at my house, and that I promised to vote for him. Now, the fact is, he never took dinner at my house, which can be proved by all the family, and my promising to vote for him is equally without foundation. If I have had any doubts as to my course on that occasion, they are now removed, and if I did wrong at all, it was for voting for him as often as I did.

[From the Oincinnati Enquirer.] Indiana Hospital for tbe Insane— Its Officers. To the Editor of the Enquirer: While on a visit to the above-named hospital, a few days ago, I was very much pleased with the deportment of its officers and attendants, who have been selected for their knowledge of the duties of the various departments assigned them. This hospital is superintended by Dr. James S. Athon, who has held, in times past, very important medical and public offices. During the Mexican War he discharged, with credit to himself and honor to the medical profession, the arduous and responsible duties of a surgeon in one of the Indiana regiments, and after its termination he was nominated and elected a member of the Legislature, which position he held for a number of years. His assistants, Drs. Barnes and Dunlap, are very successful in their mode of treatment, as the annual reports will verity. In fact, comparing this institution and its government With other insane asylumS, there are, doubtless, few more capable and deserving of distinguished merit than those in the Indiana Hospital for the Insane.

Gazette, in noticing a change in the transportation of the overland mail to California, announces a weekly overland connection with our Pacific brethren, requiring only thirty-four days, with a prospect that this will be reduced, within a few months, to thirty days. —A young man of Bethany, Connecticut, being about to leave his home for South Amerioa, made a few calls upon his acquaintances, when a young lady, who was desperately attached to him, as her last means of gaining him, drugged him and took him to a low Justice of the Peace, where the marriage ceremony was performed. —Come Easy, Go Easy.—George Christy left New York very suddenly, on Wednesday last, in the steamer Moses Taylor, for California. He has run through with all his property acquired by his negro minstrelsy, aud become entirely penniless. Indeed, he was reduced to such a strait that he was obliged to conceal his departure iu order to elude the pursuit of several officials who were
watching to arrest him.

Glancy Jones, Chairman of tho Committee of Ways and Means, by the Secretary! of War, and amount to four millions three hundred thousand dollars. It may turn out that the Administration will not need this volunteer forces for I understand that they are almost in daily expectation of intelligence from Utah that peace will be restored. However, they intend ttxgo on and make the necessary preparations and appointments for the expedition. The appropriation for the volunteers will probably be brought forward and reported to the House during the coming week.

Liquor Selling and Chnrclt Membership. In Mr. Beecher’s church, in Brooklyn, the name of a gentleman was proposed on Sunday for membership who is a member of a firm that deals wholesale in liquors, to a certain extent His partnership was for a term of five years, and he protested his inability to discontinue his connection, or the selling of liquor by the firm, but he had resolved that he would not partake of the profits of that branch of the business. The question to be decided was whether his connection and business, under the circumstances stated, should disqualify him from being received as a church member. The discussion was interesting and well sustained, Mr. Beecher favoring the applicant, and the result was his reception as a member by a vote of 77 to 25. In manr churches liquor manufacturers or ven - ders are not received to membership.—New York Post.

.¶ Still Another Murder in Greene County.— The Bedford Democrat learns that, on the 24th ult., a man by the name of Hulman was murdered near Newberry, by a man by the name of Hudson. The parties had been together at a log rolling, and, in company with other hands, were leaving the ground at the close of their day’s work. Hudson, who was walking behind the deceased, stepped up to the latter and struck him a powerful blow on the back of the head with a large handspike. The deceased lingered until Thursday following, when he died. Hudson was immediately arrested and committed to jail. There
was an old grudge existing between the parties.
.👉 John Taylor was tried last week, in the Monroe Circuit Court, on an indictment charging him with the murder of Edward Bingham. The jury, after an absence of forty minutes,
brought in a verdict of not guilty.
.¶ The case of John Rodgers and the two Mor-
gans, who are also indicted for the murder of Bingham, have been continued. All three are
now lying in jail, the Court having refused to admit them to bail. Nevitt, indicted for burglary, was sentenced to the penitentiary for two years.
