EFJohn G. Bush, a primer, formerly of
Virginia, died in New Orleans last week.
The deceased went with Lopez to Cuba,
was taken prisoner, sent to Cue la in Afri
ca, and finally went to Nicaragua, .where
he fought gallantly, and where he contract
ed the disease with which he died.
rFUn Sunday last, Robert Clinebell,
one of the prisoners confined 111 Green
brier, Va. jail, on charge of having as
•tied in burning a mill, attempted to knock
his brains out with a brickbat, hut failed
to accomplish his object. He was sense
less for several hours afterwards, but re

tTA child of Mr. J. 11. Suydam, of
Grauby, Ohio, fell into a well IB feet
.deep. There was 110 help at hand, and
after a moment's hesitation, Mrs. S. climb

climbed up the side till within a few feet

lav down on the platform, and reaching

fcSTThe dwelling of W in. 11. Griffin,
half wav between Scrantou and Provi
dence, Northumberland county, the oldest
house in that section, and long known as
♦•The Whaling House," was burned down
last week. The act was that of an incen
diary, and was perpetrated after about a
dozen attempts, in spite of a strict watch
which was kept.
£y We learn from the Lawrence (Mass.)
Courier, thai a bloody a fit ay occurred HI
fawrence on Monday night. A sailor
_uatned Hickey, had a quarrel with some
bovs, and an Englishman named Haney
and an Irishman named Kenney tried to
queH the disturbance, when Hickey turned
upon them and stabbed them both with a
-aheath knife. Hauey's case is still doubt
lut,,.Uut..ji-t*.-tiiougiiiaKenney wilt recover.
Hickey was a r res led.
Pf The Evening Post Jus the following:
—-*Tlu- South is luiiiiig the appearance of
"Reply to Died," in a novel entitled
• Tit for Tat," by a lady of New Orle-ns.
Of us merits we know nothing, except
liorn the eulogies of the Southern press,
at which no one need be surprised,. The
maternal parent, it is said, wilt cluck more
over one chicken than her more fortunate
neighbor over a whole brood. The name
cf the fair author is not disclosed.
CF The N. O. Picayune says:"\Yc
; were yesterday credibly informed, by a
gentleman who resides near the spot, that
| in September Ls:, the well known pecan
tree, under which the remams of General
Pakep.ham were buried,a few miles below
this city, was broken oil, 'hirty feet above
the ground, by a gale of wind, and a can
non ball, fired from the British lines during
the buttle, was found imbedded just where
the trunk b;uke oil". Thus it was that the
brave Briion slept under one of his own
missiles as his monument!"
.Vet/.' York Justice. —At the Court of
Special Sessions, on Tuesday last, u re
• peclably dressed voting man was fined
ten dollars ior knocking a female down in
I the street, breaking one of her teeth and
otherwise injuring her. The defence was
the defendant's "respectability," and that
it was the first offence. The next case
wis that of a youno woman, accused by a
burly policeman ol assaulting him in the
discharge of his duty. It was proved that i
the officer attempted to arrest the prisoner,
r-s he suspectfd she was soliciting alms,
when the girl resisted him. but was quick
ly overpowered and taken to lock up.
• a this case the accused was sent to the
Penitentiary for three months.
