(SliocliiiiK murder.
From (lartomillo Htandard & Exprcun]
Tho whole county was thrown into
a fever of excitement, on Sunday
moruing lui t, by the news that Mr.
CroBWell bad been murdered at his
renidonao the evening before, by a
man i anted Stuflin, a native of Den
mark. From Mr. S. ('. Caldwell;
brother-in-law to Mr. Creswell, wo
learn the following particulars, which
woro related to him by un eye wit
ness—a negro boy seventeen yours of
ago:
It Heouis that Creswell had employ-
od Htnfl'm to do some work upon a
well, agreeing lo pay him five dollars
— one half down, and the other at the
cud of the summer, provided the well
did not run dry. The work was done
and the first half was paid, according
to agreement. On the oveniug of tho
murder, and only a few days after Iho
first payment, tho man Htnfiiu caiuoto
Mr. Creswoll’s house and demanded
of him tlm balance of the money,
which Mr. Creswell refused to pay.
Htuilln said that lie was determined
to have githor tho money or its equiv
alent in WheTtr.’*' 1 Gvmwi 11 expressed
an equal determination not to pay, es-
peoialy as the well exhibited signs of
exhaustion. Stuflin then began swear
ing, when Creswoll ordered him out of
libs yard. Ho declined to move, when
Creswell walked toward him and prob
ably gave him nil accelerating push.
Stuflin then moved toward tho guto,
doggedly, swearing as ho wont. Cres
woll followed along behind him ns any
one would liavo done, to boo that ho
loft the promitos. Both passed through
tho gate, hut Mr. Creswell, evidently
satisfied at having exp filed him from
his yard, immediately turned to ro-on-
tor tho guto. Just as ho was iu the
not of raising the latch, with his back
to Stuflin, the latter was uoou to whirl
round quickly and hurl a rock at Mr.
Creswell, knocking him to the earth,
and then advance upon him with a
laiifo, which ho plunged to the hilt
through the center of his breast-hone,
sovoring the lift-go artery which loads
upward from tho heart, and produ
cing death in a very few moments.
Tho murderer immediately tied, leav
ing tho knife sticking in tho wound.
The officers of the law doubtless will
uso every legitimate means to soouro
his arrost, when wo hope to see him
dealt with to its utmost extont.
Since writing tho abovo wo have
learned of the capture of tho murder
er, in“Toxas valley, about eleven miles
from Romo. • Ho was taken to the lat
ter place and lodged in jail for tho
night, whence lie was sent to this city
lo-dny .•••'•L-v «. oU*>..£ guurfl! Ills
examnation will take place to-morrow
morning at ton o’clock.
The municipal authorities of $ult
L ike City, the Mormuus, in Ifiet, have
had a tilt with the military authority
of the United States on the question
of arresting soldiers, and have been
beaten. In a ease that came up whoro
a magistrate of the Territory refused
to deliver up a soldier who was im
prisoned, General Morrow, acting up
on the decision of the Judge advocate
and his sense of duty, soiita company
of cavalry, battered down tho prison
door and released tho man. The
Mormuus, it appears, were stunned by
this exorcise of Federal authority, hut
thu gentiles and those who arc chafing
under Merman rule rejoiced.

now stands, they can not tax anything

California lias increased her acreage
from 1,696,623 last year to oyer two
million* uot-o, Tbo average yield last
year was about fourteen bushels to tho
acre, but this year it will bo twenty
bushels—giving forty millions bushels'
of wheat as tho probable crop of that
State.
Our neighbor, Tennessee, has har
vested a tremendous crop—much tho
largest ever raised in tho State. In
deed, the Nashville papers state that
only tlio unusually heavy spring rains
prevented tlio average yield of Ten-
noss from being actually doubled this
year. The Union aud. American says
that of seven farm crops in Davidson

from ninteen to twenty eight bushels.

Tlio letter telegraphed yoslotday
from Now York purporting to cqiiio
from the hand of Henry Ward Beech
er, in which ho "humbles himself bo-
fdro Tilton as boforo his God," and
acknowledges all that Tilton has
charged ngainst him* will produce a
marked sonsation throghout thu whole
of America.
Mr. Beecher is generally conceded
to bo tim foremost man in Iho Amer
ican pulpit; tho broadest thinker; the
deftest talker; tlio most eloquent ora
tor.
Tlio rumors which somotimo since
were circulated concerning him and
his connection with Tilton’s wife did
not. detract from his power in Iho loam
so loth woro his people to pull down
tlio idol they had budded—whilo tho
proof against him scorned overwhelm
ing they shut their cars against it, aud
still foil down boforo Beecher.
Whether or not they will put him
away, oven after ho lias abjectly con
fessed to tlio foul sin, is question. So
thoroughly lias this wonderful mau
impressed his congregation with his
his power, and so dexterously has ho
poured his liberal doctrines into their
oars, that it is not cortaiu but tlioy
will sustain him.
Mr. Beecher has done moro to relax
thoso old fashioned and iullexihlo
notions of right, that splendid mod
esty that was onco tho boast of our
people, than any other man we know
of. His work has boon especially
dangerous, beonase so insidious, and
so delicately done. No mau that ever
tempted, so splendid in pcrsuation.ts i
subtile in sophistry, as he. Preaching
all tho time a doctrine as looso and
iboral aud twice as dangerous as over
emouated'from a club room, or|u Mu-
bllo, aud yot spinning it out so saintly
and so deftly over liis velvet bililo
from his cushioned pulpit that tlio
open jawed pooplo in tho pews, aud
swallow it all as gospel truth.
Ono little ex'ptession which tho
writer mot ouco iu reading his ser
mons Is very cflbctive aud will doubt
less bo appliod by thorovorned gauth-
umn to his own account just now.
Said ho defending some detected
wroteb, '1 love thoso full blooded,
impulsive people, who onco in a
whilo commit a little sin. It is always
tho full buckot that slops over. An
empty pail never spills anything."
This neat simile, plastered liko a
salvo over Beecher's wound, may heal
it up, and restore him to consistency.
We hope not. Whilo this mau is to
every intelligent reader or captivating
beyond measure, wo consider his
teaching wofully dangerous, and in
the interest of purity and virtiio wo
should bo glad to see him deprived of
the facile means, be at present enjoys

Our whole system of religion, and

theories. Tho whole roligious atmos
