The receat Loniftrille Tragedy. II aving been in Louisville some two or three Hayu after the commission of lhi« bloodthirsty tragedy, we had an opportunity of witnessing the just indignation which was excitcd against the perpetrator of auch an »nlioman butchery. We rauch doobt if the criminal annals of the Weal furnish an example of a more cold blooded, atrocious murder, than that by which WILLIAM H, G. BUTLER lost his life, at the bands of MATT. F. WARD. The case haa no parallel, certainly within the scope of our observation. Had the deed been perpetrated in this Slate, an enraged community would Have hung the perpetrator upon the nearest rree, without benefit of judge or jury. But he was a GEXTLEKAK assassin, and respectability and social position there, palliate any offence however heinous and outrageous.— We cannot believe thai in this case, the of* fender will be subjected to a mock trial, and permitted to go free, because he belong* to a wealthy family, and his victim was nothing but a school teacher! The deceased, Mr. Butler, was a native of this State, and was, we learn, twenty-eight years old at the time of his death. He graduated at Hsrtover College, obiatiing the highest honors, of the institution. He was regarded as one of the best educated men in the West, and a most successful teacher.— The Louisville Courier, speaking of him, says After graduating, he removed to this city, where he was for a period of eigh* teen months, a private teacher in the family of Robert J. Ward, Esq.. the father of Matthew P. Ward. He subsequently travelled in Europe, and three yearn ago was a dolegste from the Amerioan Peace Society, fo the World's Peace Convention at Prankfort onthe-Maine. After his return, and since he established the Louisville High School in association with Professor Slurgis, he was again offered the situation of private tutor in Mr. Ward's family, and a liberal salary was proposed as an inducement for him to accept the place. The de» sire to be more widely useful, however, had caused him to undertake the establishment of a first class school here, for boys, and the same desire now induced him to decline the cfler made by Mr. Ward in a spirit of generosity, and from warm personal regard. Mr. iiutler married soon after hia return from Iiurope, and has left a widow with a child some seven months old. He died on Thursday Morning at one o'clock.

A truer friend, a purer man, a oeiier practical christian, a more unobtrusive spirit, a more law abiding citizen, it has hot been our lot to know, lie was, indeed, the spul of truth, honor, integrity, aod real manliness. Profession and practice were one with him. In all good works, that came within the sphere of his usefulness, lo resolve and to do were the same, He combined. ip an unusual degree, the simplicity and trustfulness of childhood with the wisdom and caution of mature life. A mcm» ber of the American Peace Society, he was opposed to war: a sincere an earnest chris* tian, he was void of guile a lover of the truth in ail thinga, he eould make no terms with falsehood in any guise: an amiable, modest, accomplished and useful man, he had no enemies, and troops of friends."— And what was the motive for (hu* taking the life of one ao pure and inoffensive#

lsThe

only provocation was, that Mr. Butler* had gently chastised a younger brother of Wards who was pupil in his school, for telling a falsehood as it was his right and duty

to do.

This the wealthy and noble Ward family took offence at. as a great indignity, and insult, whereupon two of the brothers arm" ed themselves, and repaired to the school room, called Mr. out, and the elder. Matt. F., immediately and before any ex* planation could be given, ahot him down.

Matt. F. Ward, the perpetrator, is a young man about twenty-eight years of age, of fine personal appearance, but weakly and MOW suffering from a disease of the lungs, which it is thought he cannot long survive,Me is a man. like his victim, of elegant ed* ucation. has travelled extensively over Ru» rope and this country, and has written a number of works of a high literary m«r?t. among others a work entitled "Letters (roof three Ojniineou.'',

I ARK BEKJAJIIX. long known as on« of

^^Unost distinguished.wrij^s and %fhry men in the Union, has secepted of an invitation to deliver a series of Lectures before tqe Mechanic's Historical Snciely th** Winter. 't"

Locis A. If ins. of Cincinnati, widely known in the West as a Reform Lecturer, and writer, has sl*o accepted of an invitalion.

R!V. Dr. DAILY, the newly elected President of the Indiana University, will lecture during the Winter./ ti'

ScfjcTLE* COLFAX. Editor' of t^e South Bend Register, snd suthor of the Degree of Rebeckah sn Odd-Fellow»hip, will deliver one of the course.

Qoife a number of other literary gentleman have expressed their acceptance of invitations to lecture. It is the intention of the Association to begin the course in a few days. A liberal patronage upon part of our citizens will be necessary to sustsin such a course as is contemplsted by the Societv.

Terre-IIaate and Eransville Rn|:road. The friends of this rosd, in thts county, snd elsewhere, will be

pleased to learn that

the work up?u it is progreasing most admirably, in such a manner as lo insure sn esrly completion to this place. The VSncennes Gazette, of last week, states that but two mile$ of lite road is incompleted to thst plsce, and that having received all the iron necesssry for the woik, it will be done in the course of two or three weeks. The work of grading, bridging, dec., upon the route between here snd Vincennes, commenced in the latter part of June last, and the progress msde upon it is reslly astonishing. More than half this work is already done, and it is the intention to push it if anything, with still greater energy. The inhabitants along lite line of the road, have taken a most commendable interest in the progress of the work, and have aided it, to the utmost of their ability.— We must regard the early completion of litis read of vital importance to Terre-Haute, as well ss the surrounding country, Tho country through which it passes is one of unsurpassed fertility, containing an abundance of mineral wealth, and wants nothing but the proper facilities for the exportation of its products, to make it one of the most wealthy and deslseable portions of country in the entire Union,is certainly a subject of much regret, that the citizens of Terre-Haute and Vigo county, should have exhibited »o much apparent spathy in regard to the building of a road whioh will add so much to the real wealth of the country.''The opening of this road will throw intd'the lap of Terre Haute, a large and important share of the trado and travel of the south'western portion of Indiana and of western Kentucky and will open to our merchants, at all sessons of the year, the shortest and most speedy communication lo the Ohio River and the road extending North, (whioh it will be seen by sn advertisement, in to-day's paper, ihey are going to push with the utmost energy and zeol), will also open an immediate inlet lo the commerce of the Northern Lakes, Tho advantages however thai will accrue from its early completion are loo apparent to require comment at this time. We can only hope that the Directory, and the friends of the road, will push it's complelion with (he same commendable seal* that has hitherto msrked I heir efforts. A road possessing so msny palpable advantages, and one that commands to such an extent, tho confidence of all connected with it, oannot fail, we apprehend, to elicit the confidence also of Eastern CnpitalUt* who will lend a helping hand, to procure the material necessary to it's completion.

03" Sfe the advertisement of Mr. D. A. TRUAX. of Cincinnati, who has a large and superior stock of Pianos. Guitars, Harps Violins, and Music generally Mr. T., is a young gentleman, just commencing business. and is, we are assured, wall worthy of any patronage whioh may be beatowed upon him.:

TN« CESTAC PALACE—The Heir York Tribttme

says titaLihe directors of tho Crrs-

tal Palsce have rasolred to keep the Bihibi tion open through the srinter, instead of closing it in December, as tbey had previously contemplated.' They are Impelled to this course by the pecuniary succes they here steadily met with since the exhibition was complete, and by the consideration thst an early close must deprive an immense number of persons of the pleasure and benefit of visiting the Palace. From die first of September to the present day, the receipts bsve been highly satisfactory, a»ersging four thoussnd dullsrs or more a day, while the cuirent expenses are but 96«0. The receipts on the fortnight ending on the £2d in

Now is not' tlns a monstrous exhibit 1 that such immense sums of money should be paid by yon as a tax on an isdispensable article of consumption, for no purpose of Government, but only to enrich a few planters! One of these planters, Col. Stewsrt, on a crop of 1439 hogsheads, is enabled to receive, on each hogshead, a bounty of more than thirty dollars whioh you, as oousumers, pay. Is thts just—is it fair dealing/ The most insidious form taxation can assume, is that of duties on importations, for die reason, the consumer does not know that he pays it. It is first paid by the importer and wholesale dealer and on which Ae makea a profit,when he aoBs to the retailer, and As to turn when he sells lo yon the consumer. You do not think, when yon buyTthat yon are paying this tax. and therefore I say It is most insidious. Every man should know and feel the taxes he pays, and lor adtat he is oaHed oo to pay them.

DKUit aai Forngs MarkHs. WasBt»6T0*rNor- 16. At a meeting of the National Democrats held Inst night, Cornelius Wendell oTered a series of resolutions, declaring that then onination and election of General Pierce was in consequence of his unmistakable national antecedents and known opposition to tbe opinions and conduct of those who defeated Cass in 1848 by voting for Van Bureo. That the meeting does not regard the Baltimore platform as a general amnesty to such attempts by the department to crush out National Democracy in New York, and that the President denouce Guthrie and his interference in New York. Congratulates New Yorkers oo their signal victory over the Freesoilers. depricates the recent attack on Dickinson, &o.

The resolutions having been read, Daniel S. Ratcliff took the platform, and made an able speech against the resoltions. regarding them as a thrust at the administration. Wendell replied, amid excitement, that he was instrumental in calling the meeting and defended the resolutions. RatclifT replied, and reminded that gentleman that this was an attaok on the administration. Wendell denied it. Great excitement and disorder. The parties almost came to blows J**

Somebody mnveH an indefinite postponement of the resolutions. Another ufTered a susbtitute before the question was fairly put, when W. H. Thomas, deputy Collector of this port, sprang upon the platform, and moved an adjournment, and before doing which, he proposed three cheers for the administrslion. which being heartily given. Wallach. the chairman, struck Thomas and knocked him from the platform. A general inelee ensued lasting some moments, but no very serious bruises were given, during which the meeting broke up.

A Vienna dispatoh announced an armslice between the Turks and Russians for an indefinite period. This despatch materially advanced the price of English and French funds.

Another despatch said that a satisfactory diplomatic note from the four powers was on its way to Constantinople, and that the armistioe was to allow time for its accept* ance. This further strengthened funds but it was again rumored that armistice was conditional that Omar Pasoha had been orderod not to commence hostilities until the 1st November, if they were not already commenoed. This depreased the stock mar* 0 & a

A telegraphic despatch apparently iuthuntic. says that the Turks had crossed the Danube in considerable force, and occupied Kalafat, with the intention of attacking the Russians.

Desperate riots and occurred at Wogan, Lancashire, England, by a turn out of the operatives and colliers. Muob properly destroyed. Military turned out.
