CHILDREN MURDERERS —Two girls,
nine and ten years old, were begging, lo
the village of Drahetits, in Bohemia, on
the 28th ult., when they met 'another lit
tle girl, Johanna W., only seven years of
age. She was prettily dressed, as she be
longed to parents of a superior station in
the world. , The vagrant children coveted
her handsome clothes, and enticed her, by
the promise of a new doll, to'the edge of a
pond. into which, after having stripped
the poor little thing, they pushed her, and
she waa drowned. They took her clothes
and went on, but were taken into custody

has never appealed to the code of honor for
the redress of personal wrongs.
His domestio tastes are very decided,
and he has a rooted aversion to the ordiva
rimetropolitan gaieties. lie isextremely
temperate in his habits. though he makes
no .nerit of it, and does not use tobacco in
any form. nor profane language ; three pe

In all the manifold relations of father,

was confirmed as a member of the Proms
utt Episcopal Church in Charleston. when
.was sixteen years of age. and at a time
under very profound religious convictions.
lie became so much absorbed by tho sub

his friends with a general expectation that
he woulddevoto himself to the ministry.
Ho used to study kid commit chapter after

times as Many as three' hundred verses a
day—and fstigued his instructors with the
length of recitations. Upon

in the habit of attending the churches of
