BURDELL. <' The civilized world has lately been shock- ,n ed by the report of a most horrid murder, a' perpetrated upon the person of l)r. Ilsrvev Burdcll, a rich Dentist, residing near Broadway, New York. Tho clrcumstnnees of the case, point to a man named Eckel, and a Mis. Cunningham, both residing in the same house, as the perpetrators of the deed. n" Mrs. Cunningham had succeeded in ingratiating herself into the favor of Dr. Burdcll several tnontlis before, and had obtained from him a lease of the house upon very easy terms. Proof goes to show, that he :tl had had suspicions, that these two intended P1' hiin foul play, as ho several weeks befuru cx the murder, refused to eat io the house.? After the murder, Mr*. Cunningham produc- 8,< ed a marriage certificate, and claimed to be the widow of the murdered man Thu Parson who gave the certificate was summoned, but failed to recognize in the bod) of Dr. uri Hurdeli, the person whom he had married l"? to Mrs. Cunningham. Suspicion rests upon Eckel, as having connived with Mrs. Cun^ nn ninghnm, and personated Dr. Hurdeli in the PB marriage nliair ; hence the mystery of the murder is solved?Mrs. Cunningham, as ev the reputed wife of Dr. Uurdcll.would be en- ro titled at his death, to his large property. Porter* Spirit of the 'ftmrs, concludes a nn lengthy comment upon the aflair, as follow*: P( "There is no need of stifling our thoughts any longer in this business. Thu whole ru community have Agreed upon a verdict and 1U every mind unites to charge the horrid set ^ upon this wretched woman and her para. nt ' mour. Our judgment goes the same way ; I" and if we had ?pace, we could fortify that ?' view with many little proofs, which, thus ^ far, seem to have been overlooked. Our w theory of the erme, however, is, tnat the n<^ intention to take the life of Doctor Hurdeli ca had long been determined on by Mrs. C'un- ^1 ninghau: and Eckel, *.>d Vital poison would have been the means, had not the I>oclor wisely refused to eat or drink in the house 11 Finally, that Friday night was fixed upon tn.r i.? ??.? - *?

The lir-t attempt was to strangle him, a with the view, doubtless, of banging up hia c< body, us that of n auicide, but failing to dis- Vl patch li'.m in that way, in eonseijuencc of e> the desperate straggle which he made for ^ life, they were obliged to attack him w ith the knife.

I If We say, that in common with the entire j n< public, we believe that the stained and drip- m ping miscreant* who thua stood over the ' e< murdered body of Harvey Burdell, on that : If horrid Friday night, were Mrs. Knima A.' m (Cunningham and John V Erkel.
