THE HUNTINGTON COUNTY TRAGEDY. %. The Chambersburg Repository of Thursday, gives the following particulars of the horrible murder of Mrs. Brown and five of her children, a short account of which we gave on Monday: One of the most shocking fciurderS?or rather massacre of an almost entire family? that ever cast a stain on civilization, was perpetrated in Cromwell township, Huntington ?-?? -? HafnnJav. 9r?iI, nil. The ororm.ient LVUillJ t '/II ? r particulars, as gathered from an individual present at the examination are these:?Wm. Brown is the father of the murdered family which consisted of tin parents and six children. The eldest daughter is married to Robert M'Conahy, who lived on his father, in-law's premises as a tenant. Brown it seems,Js a rough man, addicted to imtemper ance; when in this condition was in the habit of threatening to ki.l some of his family, though rever known to have attempted any thing of the kind. He was in the habit of working in the neighborhood at carpentering, whilst M'Conahy conducted the farming opertfions. On Saturday morning,-the old man and his oldest eon, aged aboai left home for their places of employ men'; shortly after which, M'Conahy proposed to the next oldest son ant a younger one to "go a hunting," at the same i time directing the daughter and another of1 the boys to do some work in a cornfield.? i M'Conahy's wife having a day pre* ?:is been . conveyed to a friend's hou a: some distance, ( by hep husband. After the above disposition ( had been gone into, the whole family was dispersed, except Mrs. Brown, who remained in the house; M'Conahy and the two boys, on the hunting excursion hul not proreed? d much beyond half a mile f. onr the house when ; the bodies of the two hoys wore afterwards found, it appeared that the oldest, a stout bov had nat been mortally wounded by the shot, j that he made desperate battle, until overcome i by h is merciless assailant, u ho finally cut. his throat. Whilst the scene was enacting, the j the smaller boy ran ?ome distance but was j mwiuul chrO *\nr? Ixvifon to ilpAll). Slid. Willi I t,u,ouvu' " - ? , his brother, buried beneath leaves and other bushes. Shortly after this, SfirJ and her brother W" engaged in the corn field, were attacked; the g?'rl was shot, but there was ample anil painful j evidence to show that the wound was not fatal, and that she resisted the murderer with I extraordinary power, which ceased only when I both her arms were b-oken, and her throat; cut from ear to eat! T.ie boy hem, as in the j other case, appeared to ha* e been first shot, and then beaten and at lbbcd un'il life was ; extinct. The bodies were then covered tip. j The next object of the fiend incarnate was the : mother of those murdered children. She was found in the house and was despatched with a common butcher knife, with which her head was nearly s nered trom her body, though r.ot w ithout manifestations of having resisted her destroyer, to the extent of her p ?\wr. She; was buried irrher b -d, and the blood carefully wiped tiT the floor. The murderer then sta tioned himself in the barn, with two loaded rifles, ?t a point commanding a view of the door of the dwelling house, and awaited the approach of the next victim?. The first was the eldeRt son, who, when u;w>n 'lie threshold of the door, received a fatal shot, and* fell jfcad upon the spot, lie w as dragged inside the house, and the door clo-ed. Next came the father, and upon putting his hand to the door, found it fas'en<'d, upo i which he made 1 some exclamation of dissatisfaction, and at the : same moment, heard the report of a gun, and flit that a ball had passed close to his eyes as to cause considerable pain; in otoment alter, another discharge of a rifle sent a ball bo as to cut a part of his ear, grazo his whiskers, and pass through his hat. H^then cast his eyes towards the barn, and discovered a ' pors?>n hastily turning round the corner, dircc i ting his course to the woods. Upon effecting an entrance into the House, j Mr. Brown found his eldest son upon the floor, , dead, upon further exam nation, discovered his wife concealed by the bed clothes, life was also extinct. He then communicated the dreadful circumstance to the neighbors, who 1 .immediately insti uted a search for the other1 members of the falmiy, who were found as already described, the searches b?in^ led in ! right direction by reports of the guns previous, j ly heard. The next question was Who is ; the Murderer? The character and habits of Brown at once gave a color to the suspicion that he had returned home maddened, as t/.ousaud? have been before htm, by intoxicating j liquor, anu riau mus put inioexecuuou ms on threatened and unnatural purpose. He was secured?but fortunately for lii:n, he had re. ? mained sober that day, .inJ r?niy needed to bcirig forward his proofs to satisfy all thai he could not bo the murderer. McConaby, the son.in law, was present and in reply to an insinuation from him unfavorable to Brown, the latter at once accused , him as the criminal, averring that ho was the j man he saw running from the barn, &.e. This soon resulted in the liberation of the old man and rhesecuring of McConahy, who, in all the subsequent examination, became more j deeply invo ved in condemning circumstances. | and was finally committed to Huntington jail to Await his trial in August. Providence seems to have interposed in a remarkable manner to frustrate tlie design of1 r , # c tho assassin. If M'Coiiany is the guilty man.; t!?e only object he can nave ii.d in view was ; to destroy the whole family iu order to secure , the property of hi? father- in-law to himself ?and it would seem that the calculation was that the public would be rea?ly to o-ncludv that Brown had committed suicide?a conclu. \ sion that might have lei u produced if ho had fallen by the shots aimed at his head, and had had left his employment prepared for such a deed by intoxication.

The commissioners oa the part of the l-nitcd States and Texas, for marking the boundary beweeen these two nations me at Green's Bluff, on the Sabine river, on die 15th of May, in pursuance of the adjournment which took place in March last, for the purpose of allowing each of the two Commissioners an opportunity to refer to his Government a disputed quest on wl? ch was raised as to the proper point, of commencement of the line, and whether it sh'?uld run along the west" ra bank of Sabine p iss and lake, or along til ir middle from die sea to the head ed'said lake. This question has been decided, suslainine: the Commissioner on the part ol the United States in the position originally taken by him, that is, the line will ue commenced at the point where die Sabine discharges its waters into the sea. on lie Gulf of Mexico, and will proceed thoJic- along the bank of that river (including under that lerm what is called "Sabine pass"-anti '-Sabine lake") until the sa d western bank intersects the 23d degree of north latitude, and thence by a due north lii.'e to Bed river. This secures the United States in the exclusive jurisdiction over the waters of the pass aiid the lak<* in as full a manner ;.s over the rest of the riveras far up as the 32d degree of latitude which is altogether i ? accordance with our view of the true intention of our original treaty w.th Spain of 1619, which constituted the basis of the conventions with Mexico,in the first place, and with Texas afterwards, for the demarcation of this boundary. The work will be pushed, with a view to the completion of as much of the line as shall be practicable this summer. [iYcio Orleans Bulletin. g_y.li. ii _ _ j | General Summary.
