Nothing stirring of mo ment—in fact, with the thermometer at 89, uobodv cares about stirring round much.— Even our Wall street Mammon-worshippers keep pretty cool, under the circumstances. Some Activity was noticed near the Produce Exchange this noon, owing to an advance in flour of 15 a 35 cents per barrel, but it closed heavy, ow ing perhaps to the “high price of oats’.” which seems to regulate the price of every thing uow-a-days, from the services an ob stretician to the required number of spou dulics for a glass of sloppy lager. Gold has tumbled a little to-day, and at 3 o’clock is quoted at U 2 7-8, having opened at 143 1-2. Alleged Heavy Defalcatlou.

At San Borgia, on the river L T ruguay, the Paraguayans had carried the town, and, It is said, put the entire Brazilian garrison to death. Pnrdou of Hon. HerseUel V. Johuion. The appeal to the President by the widow oi the late Stephen A. Douglas, lor the par don of Mr. Johnson, who was on the ticket of her husband, as a candidate for the Vice- Presidency, proved irresistible.

Fearful Record of Crime. BORBIBLE CRIME—A MAS SLATS BIS FATHER A>p MOTUfcU THE PARKACIDE AURI.STtP. [From the cmclnuatl Commercial.] Darytown, a small village nine miles from Hamilton, Butler county, was the scene of a terrible affray on Friday last, ilf which a voung man named Sylvester Irwin killed Ids father, John Irwiu, aud his stepmother, Jam: Irwin. A statement of the affair is as fol lows; At dinner-lime the lather, mother and son were seated at the table, discussing at length family affairs, when the conversation became fearfully exciting, and harsh aud violent lan guage was indulged in. Finally the mother, Mrs’ Irwiu, rose from her seat, and with the carving kuife iu her right hand, rushed to wards her son, who, rising from his chair, fell back from the table, and drawing a re volver, warned her not to make another step toward him, else he would shoot her. At this juncture tire futhet, enraged and excited, rose aud took the part of his wile, aud seiz ing a hatchet, rushed toward the young mna,wbo Immediately fired at his father, and tlieu turning toward the mother, also shot her, both parents falling lifeless at liis feet. The young man, Irwiu, who is unmarried and aged about 30 years, then informed the neighbors what he had done, and hunting up the constable of Darytown, gave himself up for trial, declaring tnat he committed the deed in self-defence. The prisoner was then brought to Hamilton and lodged in the coun ty jail. The occurrence has caused consid erable excitement in Darytown. Another account is that Sylvester relum ed to the house from plowing, when some girls, from au upper-story wiudow of his lather's house, spit down upon him. Tiffs act of indignity excited the ire of Syl vester, aud he demanded of his father, at the barn, whether or not he countenanced> such actiou. Hurd words followed, when the step-mother, Jaue Irwin, ran out of her house down to the barn with a caning kniie and rushed toward Sylvester, who drew a pistol. The father, John Irwiu, seized a hatchet and stepped in between his wile and son, evidently to protect both, be ing proverbial for his peaceable disposition The sou then fired at the father, the bail en tering the forehead, aud causing instant death. He theu fired at Mrs. Irwin, the ball entering the right breast. Sylvester then noticing that his last shot had not perform ed its mission of iustant death, seized a knife aud cut her throat from car to ear, aud with a club beat her head. She only lived 20 minutes. Sylvester then fled, aud was ar rested In Hamilton, as already stated. His trial has been set down for Tuesday morn ing, the Btb, at 9 o’clock. The Coroner ot Butler County wns engaged Saturday even ing lu hokliug an inquest upon the dead bodies of Mr. aud Mrs. Irwiu. HORRID AFFAIR. From the St. Louis Republican, 3*l. Early ou Thursday morning last the towu of Chester, Illinois, was thrown into a state ot great excitement by thq intelligence of the,murder of Mrs. Elizabeth Darwin, a re spectable widow lady, residing three or four miles below that place. The murder was committed between 10 and 11 o’clock Wed nesday night, her throat being cut trout ear to ear. l'ne spectacle presented on eutering the house is represented as being too revolting for description. Tne body of the murdered woman lay ou the floor near the bed, from which she had beeu drugged by the murderer, aud which was dreuched, with bumau gore, her throat baviDg been cut In two places, severing iu oue instance the carotid artery. A severe gash had also been Inflicted iu tue forehead. The evidence elicited before the Jury of in quest by the testimony of Aiuauda and Clin ton, tbeduugbier aud sou of the uufortuuate lady—the former aged about 12 years, the latter some years younger —together with that of Mrs. Louisa Darwin, her daughter in law, is conclusive, aud fastens the guilt of tliis horrible crime upon oue Gabriel J. Forsee, who had formerly been employed on the farm, and who had but receutly been re leased from the State Penitentiary, whither he had been sentenced for larceny. It ap pears that he first entered the kltcheu ad joining the house, thence through a window looking Irom the room occupied by Sirs. Darwin ana her two children Into the kitch en, by which means he reached her bed. The first intimation the children had of his presence was occasioned by the screaming of their mother,Which roused them from their slumbers, and upon looking iu the directiou wheuce the screams proceeded, Amanda discovered a man moving backwurd and pulling her mother out of the bed, after which he endeavored to conceal himself behiud the bed The noise made by the frightened children caused a fear to come upon the murderer lest the neighbors' attention might be attracted toward the house, and flourish ing a large, bloody kuife, of the bowie pat tern, he threatened to kill them too if they did not keep quiet. Iu the meuu time, Amanda succeeded in striking a light just as the villain was on the eve of departing aud recognized him as Gabriel J. Forsee. Pur suit was given early on Thursday morning. Many citizens voluntarily teudered their services,-and after a search of about twenty hours the murderer was captured some twen ty miles from this city. OCTRAOE3 BT CAS,VI. BOATMEN. iUeorgetowu Cor. Washington Star ] The boatman of the fleet of coal boats just arriving over the Chesapeake and Ohio Ca nal, have been behaving outrageously on the line ot the cunal, from Georgetown to Har per's Ferry. A gentleman lrom the vicinity oi Harper’s Ferry says they have not let! an ear of corn in his field. Another states that a colored woman was ravished on one ol tile boats. They quarrelled among them selves, and after passing the locks Ihe men ol one boat would throw rocks behind the lock gate, to delay the boat that followed. The remonstrances of Superintendent Bates iuduced one of the boatman to try to whip him into silence, but the Superlnteudent gave the boatman an awful thrashing. They sev eral times threatened to whip Mr. Hoskins. | Harbor Master at this terminus, but have not Jet tried it, and it will be wise for them not to try it. At the lock near the Broad Kun culvert a boatman named Nall shot another burned James H. Gibbs, fortunately Inflicting oaiy a flvsh wound in his breast aud (mother Ho much druukenuess among f, m , tlueu on ths towpath has uever be fore been witnessed. bbutai. violence.

The young woman resides in Painesville, Ohio, and had been to Columbus on business connected with her husband’s affairs, who had been a soldier aud killed iu battle. On arriving at Cleveland, where she was a stranger, and as certaining she could not pursue her Journey borne until night, she applied to a hackman to be conveyed to * hotel up town. The backmau, after speaking to some friends neat by. hade her follow him to his carriage. The unsuspecting woman followed and was conducted under the piers at the depot. A terrible suspicion here possessed her and she attempted to return, when she was seized by the ruffian that ha-1 brought her thither and the three “friends” tie had been seen to speak with. Her head aud face were covered with a coit, her mouth stopped with a hundker ehict, and the brutal purpose of the assaU auts successively accomplished. When site recovered consciousness, late iu the evening, the vil'nins had fled, and she was barely able to crawl to the open air, where the attention of some officers was arrested by her moans, aud who carried her into tbe depot. She was placed ou board the 9 o'clock train that evening and taken to her home in Paines ville. Tbe fiends have not yet been arrested, but the police are on their track. LOCAL MATTERS.
