Finding Mrs. Peterson, aged fifty years, alone, they dragged ber into the cellar and outraged her per? son iu a horrible manner. On the I 29th inst., they were captured, after a desperate resistance. They con? fessed their guilt, aud, while being taken to jail, were rescued by a mob and killed, aud their bodies thrown into the river. They were the last of thirty who deserted teu days ago, and who have been a greater terror to tho settlers than the Indians. Mrs. Petersou is not expected to survive. COMME KCl AL. AM) FINANCIAL..

NIANS.-We fiud tho following addi? tional cable telegrams in the New York papers: LONDON, May 28.-The Govern? ment had determined upon carrying out the law against the Fenians to its utmost rigor; but in view of tho uni? versal sontiment of the people and the press, and fearing that the Fe? nians might resort to measures of revenge, it was at last compelled to remit the sentence of Burke. The Cabinet recommended the commuta? tion on Saturday, and tho Queen as? sented to it at a late hour last night. In both houses of Parliament, to? night, the announcement was received with cheers. In the House of Lords, Earl Derby said he could seo no pal? liative circumstances iu tho case of Burke, but his sentence had been remitted because the Government had received the overwhelming testimony of the Irish people that it would be politic not to allow the law to take its GOBLIN, May 27.-The news of the commutation of tLd death sentence passed on Col. Burke, I. R. A., to ono of imprisonment for life, was re? ceived in this city with joy by all classes of tho people. Yesterday, previous to the reception of the v. el come news, prayers were offered up in all the Roman Catholic churches in Dublin, invoking Almighty God to inclino the royd mind to cle? mency. Gov. Burnside, of Rhode Island, waa inaugurated for his second term on Toe8day. There aro elevon lodges of German Odd Fellows in Indiana. BROWNEOW'S MTLTT?A, -W? " have received intolligonce from Winches? ter, says the li ashville Beniner, that a squad ot Hickman's militia com? pany, under the command of au officer named Holt, went to tho houso of Mr.,Browu, lost Tuesday morning, tookiiini out into tho woods, tied him to a tree withf thongs of bark, and literally riddled his body with balls. Thoy also took a yoong man named Poe, tried him by a "drum-head court-rn?rtial," condemned him to bo shot, and were about carrying tho sentence into effect, when the tra? gedy was prevented by the timely in? terposition of a gentleman who had been a Union man throughout the war. Our informant states that many of the citizens of Franklin County have been plundered and maltreated within the past few days, and that others have been compelled to seek refuge in tho woods. These enormities have all boen com? mitted ou a people whose conduct hos been above even suspicion. The only excuse alleged for killing Brown was, that bo had served in tho Con fedeiate army during the war; and tho indications at present are that tho best citizens of the County will fall victims to the vindictive hatred of these licensed assassins. So great is the feeling of alarm throughout the section of country named, that tho peoplo have already begun to organize for mutual protec? tion, being determined that one com? pany of Brownlow's mercenaries shall not rob and murder them with im? punity. A meeting was to have been held at Winchester last night, to con? sider what was best to be done. IMPORTANT ACTION BY THE PRESI? DENT.-It is well known that thc President maintains that the mili? tary commanders appointed under the reconstruction Act have no legal right to arbitrarily make and unmake governors, legislators, mayors and other civil officers, and he looks upon the action of Gen. Swayne in remov? ing the mayor and police force of Mobile as a most flagrant violation of the law, especially as that officer re? ports officially that there was no pre? concerted arrangements for the late disturbance there, and that the only charge to be made against the police was that of timidity. It is generally understood here that the President has at last decided to interfere in this case, and will revoke the order of Gen. Swayne deposing thc municipal government of Mobile, and will in? struct Swayne to re-iustnte the mayor and all other officers who have been interfered with by military edict. Tho President also maintains that his construction of the law is judi? cially sustained; for the Supreme Court of the United States, in the Mississippi injunction case, held that thc duties of the generals command? ing the several military districts . 'must necessarily bo performed uuilty the supervisiou of the President, as Commander-in-Chief, for tho duty thus imposed on the President is in no just sense ministerial-it is purely executive and political." Members of the Judiciary Committee say that they fear that the President will not interfere, as reported, for in that case they declare that his impeach? ment is insured.-New York World. CROAKERS.-There is a class of men among us, who, in the midst of our present troubles, are continually con? soling themselves, and trying to con? tribute to their own importance by assuming that our people are in some way to blame for our present evils. Censure in troubles is tho egotism of useless men. These men were always egotistical croakers, and they always will be. Their philosophy grows out of their own natural constitution. The basis for it is not found in tho facts of the case, but in themselves; and whatever different 3tate of facts might exist, they would still hold the same croaking philosophy, because they would still be the same men. Their views are erroneous aud always in bad taste. It is an evil bird that defiles its own nest. The emigrant agent of the Pied? mont, Va., Land Agency, Mr. John Wettstein, from Switzerland, has arrived iu Lynchburg, Vu., with a party of emigrants, mostly field la? borers. Mr. Wettstein has complet? ed his arrangements for bringing laborers and land buyers to Virginia, and expects weekly arrivals of them. Count Bismarck is reported to be suffering greatly from a nervous disease, which prevents him from sleeping; and in order to secure some sleep he gets on a horse at 1 o'clock in the night and rides till 4 o'clock, re? turns home, goes to bed, and sleeps five hours-the slcop hoing induced by the fatigue. The New York Nation says, speak? ing of Bancroft: "We should think ho would bo glad to go abroad for a brief period, as he is at present re? morselessly pursued by grand-sons whose ancestors he has assailed, and who are just a little too much for him." The Pall Mull Gazette is critical on the Peabody portrait of Queon Vic? toria. It says the picture "makes her look liko a fat, red-faced, cross school-girl of eighteen, looking rather old for her age." Tho likeness may be tolerable, notwithstanding. Forney's paper says Siauberry'a opinion is a betrayal of the nation. It doesn't condes''er i to seato iu what particular respect. Josh Billings truthfully - remarks that "trying to live on the reputa? tion of a dead grand-father is just about as enterprising as trying to hatch ont rotten eggs under a tin weathercock." NEW YORK.-A Now York paper say s that suicide is becoming alarm? ingly prevalent in that city. We fear there are few cities where it could prevail with greater advantage to the world at large: In the State of Mississippi there aro thirty-nine political papers. Of these fifteen are opposed to recon? struction under the law of Congress, and twenty-four in favor of it. A boy named JouEuTyman drank a pint of rum in Buffalo one day last week, nud died in a few hours after. Nearly a quarter million barrels of boer were brewed in Chicago last year.
