[For U>* lodUu Bex cilia. - Mk. Eonoa: —Knowing that the Rev. J. C. Ron ham has .numerous friends in this community, among all denominations of Christians, I deem this as sufficient to justify roe in making the following extracts front a private letter which be recently wrote to a friend, who •is now lit this place on a visit. Mr. Bonham, soon after his baptism at Rising Sun, received and accepted a call to the Pastoral of the Baptist Church at Crbana, Ohio. Soon after bis arrival at his new home he wrote back as follows, in the letter above referred to: “XVc are now in a Baptist Parsonage, and ate beginning to feel very much at home in pur new home.. Out people gave us a cordial welcome. On the evening ©four arrival there was a reception party at the Parsonage. It was intended as a surprise party, hut wc come man earlier hour thou they had anticipated.' This somewhat disap* pointed theiirv but the whole a flair passed ott very plcafitnlly and in the best of style. 1 never saw any thing of the kind done up from first to last in bentt taste. “In the morning we t«ok possession of the Parsonage, and found our pantry welt supplied with meals, cubes, crackers, cheese, ground coflVe, loaf sugar, &c.; and ihe cellar bad its share of cabbage, pumpkins, beets,.sweet potatoes. pickles, cartned fruit, 4c. In short the physical roan was provided for, and we entered by the help of kind ladjes and men who assisted.in unboxing goods, putting down carpets. 4e. ' We find ourselves among a peop'e whom we are fast learning to love. ; Sometimes we wonder at the good hand jof our God upon us. Surely He is making our heritage a happy one among our new friends. ’ ‘ I M 1 find new Ure/Aren, sociallyami denominationally,— substantial, energetic, intelligent i brethren, as well ,-as excellent' sisters iu this church.- U seems refreshing to find a noble band of men to join in labors for Jesus. *T am thankful that l oin now prepared to expound the way, of God more perfectly I I am deeply lbankful that my home and heart ore iu the Baptist Church. I hove been brought hither through intelligent conviction; and ,1 can say this is the) way to walk in it.’ 1 , J3

The Tragedy at Washington.

The Senate passed a bill to prevent the sale of adulterate-! liquors, keeping of tippling houses, Ac-, Ac* Hi* hardly probable this bill Will pass tho House after tiis recent failures in that body and tho Governor's; veto, even if there was timo to consider it. ■

The details of the horrible affair at the seat of government—the killing of the District Attorney, Mr. Key, by Hon. D. E. Sickles, are now familiar to our readers. Legally considered, it was murder of the most glaring kind; but when alf the facts and circumstances are taken into consideration, but few will condemn the act, and no jury, wo think, will be found to convict Mr. Sickles.

The New York Express states, bn the nnthority of a private letter from Hays comity, Texas, that four hundred slaves, from Africa, hare been landed on the coast of Texas, within the last few weeks.

The Senate bill, providing for the management of ibe benevolent Institutions of the State, passed the House on Wednesday, without amendment,; by yeas 5", nays *8. The bill provides for tho election of two trustees, each, for tho blind, and Deaf and Dumb Institutes, and two commissioners for the Asylum for the Insane, and also ona President, who shall preside over each of the of the boards, and, with the Trustees and Commissioners aforesaid, constitute the Board for the manaement of the said institutions respectively. . Another of the series of reforms inaugurated by the House Coramilso of Ways and Means, to regulate tho salaries of officers of Stale passed the House—ayes 52, nays 4*2. . The salaries of the Governor,. Treasurer, and President of the Board of Sinking Fund, .are fixed .at 53,000; the salaries of the Auditor of State, at 52.5Q0; those of the Secretary of Stale and Judges of the Supremo Court at $2;000; those of the Judgea of rite Circuit Court and Warden of the State Prisbn, 51.500;" of the Superintendent of Insane’ Asylum at 51,200;'of the Deaf and Dumb Asylum at 81.000; of tho Bjind Asylnm a^.5800; Prosecuting Attorneys 5500, together with the lees now allowed by law,. The bill, also provides for payment ol a docket fee of one dollar, in certain cases brought in the Circuit and Common Pleas Couits, and of ; four dollars.in all cases appealed from Circuit 'Courts to -the Snpieme Court; the moneys derived from.the, first source to bn paid into the fir*t sotuco to be paid into, the comity treasuries, and those derived from appeals.into the Stale Treasury. ■ : . ■ A hill allowing appeals from the Circuit to the Supreme Court in contested election cases has passed both branches. A bill repealing that provision of the existing law which restricts the jurisdiction of the Common PleasCourts to cascs involving less than one thousand dollars, passed the Senate,- . ... , The new law regulating the Com,Is of Commou Pleas provides -for three courts a year,-;in each county, beginning with the first Monday in January* annually, and then on the first Monday of. every fourth month thereafter,' but if,the Circuit Oour of said county shall be in scss; ion at the time, the'Common Pleas' shall bo. held on the Monday succeeding the term of the Circuit Court. :

CT Tlie Democratic Senate of New Jersey has refused to go inlo joint ballot for (he election of a U. S. Senator. Trie other branch ot the Legislative is strongly Opposition.

Key had been guilty of conduct for which the law furnished no adequate punishment, and we cannot blame the outraged husband and father for taking the law into his own bands and inflicting a punishment not adequate to the crime committed, but most certainly such as would prevent its repetition. The death of the guilty seducer is not so much to be deplored as the crime,—in sundering those ties of domestic sacredness, upon which the whole structure of society is founded. There is a higher law in the heart of every true man, that is belter and nobler than any laws of our statute books, and in cases of this kind, especially, we cannot blame any man for defending his own rights and feelings in the most summary manner.

We fully endorse the following extract from the Cincinnati <Gazette:>— The state of morals at our national capital has not of late been in too excellent repute. This scandalous and fatal occurrence will not tend to increase the fair fame of our “Court" society whether at home or broad. There is, a demoralizing atmosphere wherever so much dishonesty, political intrigue, and general corruption exist, as now disgrace the honored name which our seat of government bears. Integrity, justice, purity, honor, and patriotism of a true and noble sort, are virtues now become quite too rare in the high places of the nation. Where these are wanting, the most degrading vices and crimes will not be long absent. ~~~~~
