Could auch a thing occur in any country nableased with the high moral ideas of Massachusetts? live think not, and are very sure that nothing of the tort could happen in Mi* land of dark ness and savagery. The Republican say a: Justice Davis, of Greenfield, on Saturday, held Henry Wright, Ueo. O. Nelson, Herrin Murcy and Thoa. Marry, of Charlemont, tor their out rageous assault upon Mrs. I.aura A. Harris, of that town, whom they meant to punish for udultery. Mrs. Harris’ testimony was that on the evening of the 18th of April, while she was sitting at the chamber win dow of her husband’s house, a crowd appeared in the street. Masked men knocked at the door, and then entered through the cellar, after being told by the husband that if they did so it would be at their peril. Harris was seized and bound, although he was armed with a revolver, aud the cham ber door was broken down with an axe by four or five of the ringleaders. Mrs. Harris was found liehind a bu reau, dragged out and down into the street. Her hands were tied behind her, and her mouth covered to smother her cries of “murder.” She was car ried iutoatield, held upon the ground, her stockings hauled of, her clothes thrown over her hcu<J, aud her per son, from her waist down, smeared with tar and feathers; tar was also S oured from a pan upon her head.— he begged them to let her go, prom ising to leave town if they would do so, and she was finally (eft in tho tiehl, mid allowed to go home. *10,000 COME. lUfehcry at Ilia SswtiwM Ex sms Messenger near Meridian, Miss. From the New York Timet, June 30. EARTHQUAKE. The People of New York and Vicinity “Shook Up a Little.” Reports received from various quar ters aII tend to confirm tho statement, at first received with some credulity, of a shock of earthquake having lieen felt at 10 o’clock on Sunday night, running in a direction formingalmost a complete circle around the city of New York. ' Among the more or less authenti cated details to hand, the following arc the most noteworthy: In Staten Island a gentleman heard a rumbling noise, followed by a shock and a slight upheaving of the earth. In Long Island, Jamaica and Ridge wood, it appears the people were greatly alarmed by the shock, and rushed from their beds into the streets. At Hoboken, Woehawken, and other points in Jersey, the noise heard resembled the drugging of heavy wagons over a rough road, but very much kinder, as may lie supposed. The shock was felt in Brooklyn, neur the Fulton Ferry, and several resi dents of 111,-it locality are reported to have been dreadfully alarmed by the shaking of their hnuseiTand the rat tling of tlieir windows. A storm raged on the Sound during the con vulsion on terra Anna. In Fast Brooklyn a low, rumbling noise was heard, and most of the accounts de scribed the noise as somewhat like dragging heavy furniture over the floor, or the rumbling of wagons over an uneven road. Long Island, in short, appears to have received the full benefit of the tidal wave, and va rious stories are told of honest citizens frightened almost out of tlieir wits by the strange phenomenon; and the dumb animals shared the general terror caused hv the trembling of the earth and the (full, rumbling subter ranean noises. Farmingdale, Brent ford and Smithtmvn were more or less favored witli more or less impres sive demonstrations, and we are told that, “no wagons in the streets, nor even a dozen trains running togeth er, could have caused sueli a dreadful rattling, rumbling and shaking.- Williamsburg was spared the visita tion. So was the citv of New York. The Jackson Pilot has learned of the robbery of the safe of the South ern Express Com;>aiiy, on hoard of a southward bound train on the Mobile and Ohio Railroad, last Sunday morn ing, when within a short distance of Meridian. The Pilot says: II appears that the train from the North, and due at Meridian at about two a. m, had an express safe of the Southern Express Company on hoard, coupling about 110,000 in currency, for different parties. When within a short distance of Meridian two men were seen to jump from the train, hut no attention w as paid to the fact until the express messenger awoke and went to assort his packages. Then he says he discovered the loss of his money, envelopes, safe and all. lie says lie had been asleep duriug the last run of about eighteen miles, and denies all knowledge of the transac tion. As soon as [Kissible search was made for the missing safe by the messenger and ofliccrs of the Express Company. After some hours hud elapsed the broken und empty sufe was found in the woods. It had evidently been thrown off the car, then dragged to some underbrush and there Turced open with the head of an axe. The occupants ol' a cabin near by stated thut two men hod come to tlieir place in the night and borrowed their axe, giving some excuse, and it was this instrument with which the iron chest hud been broken in. There has been no trace of the rub- liers discovered. No suspicion seems to attach to the messenger or the men connected with the train. raso» ( amtttlm stwnre ma guinea, "~ r '' ttpm tom nxmern. notubjuty ash box on Tkajr Ittai PiitfllX. W. H.

A Chicago dispatch of the 23d says: “A special to the Tribune, from White Pigeon, Michigan, Suva that u fearful tragedy occurred at the Stone Lake school-house, at Van Buren, In diana, ycstereluy afterniHin. Cliun- cery Barnes and Addie Dwight, a worthy young school-teacher, were formerly engaged to Ik- married. Sub sequently, Miss Dwight, finding him unworthy, told him that she would not ftiltill the engagement. Yester day, during school hours, in company with a young lady, Barnes proceeded toward the school-house to call ou Miss Dwight. Finding her near the school-house with some of her schol ars looking for a spot suitable for holding a picnic, he requested her to step one side, us he wished to sjieak with her. She did so, he then asked her if she intended to become his wife. She answered, decidedly, no.— He then drew a revolver and dis charged two halls into her brain, kill ing her instantly. He then tired four shots into his own head. Barnes is still slive, hut is sinking rapidly. He has been taken to the Latirange county (Indiana) jail. Intense ex citement prevails in the vicinity, and should Barnes show any sign of re covery he will doubtless tie lynched. The women have had another tri umph. Those who presented them solves for examination at the Inter nal Bevenue Deportment, Washing ton, under the new regulations of Gen. Pleasanton, have just passed the ordeal with (lying colors, and receive the same saluries os men would in the same positions, although the ex amination was particularly stringent and severe. Tho lady who took the highestgrude failed not in the slight est particular, while several gentle men, graduates of colleges were sent back, having made the most egregious blunders. The women insist ujion it that they are questioned more closely and criticully than the men, und not one of them bus committed such an error as to give “its” as the plural of it, or lieen unable to tell in what di rection Washington, or any other city, was from the North Pole, as was the case with male applicants. The New York World says: “Yes terday a venerable gentleman disem barked from the West Point boat, and in attempting to cross West Btroct, found Ins way impeded by an unending train of vehicles. He saw a policeman near hv, and beckoned him to approach. Reverence for age ■atised the policeman to obey and ad vance. Tlie old gentleman inquired if ho belonged to the army. ‘No, sir, I am a policeman,’ was the answer.— Exactly,’ responded the old man, ‘you belong to Tammany. Can I get ucross this stroetl’ ‘Cer tainly/ responded the policeman, ‘I will conduct you across.’ The old gentleman was soon safe on the other side. The policeman turned to go hack, when the old gentleman called him hack and said; ‘Mr. Policeman, do yon know who you have just con ducted across the street?’ The po liceman replied Hint he had not that pleasure. ‘Well, sir, 1 will tell you— I am the fa'her i f President Grunt.’ The old •• tiileiinui then turned on his heel uith dignity in the direction of the Long Brunch boat.

A few weeks ago a little boy, six years of age, while playing on tlie sluirwav of the Galt House, fell adiss tancc of seventy feet, algihting upon a stone floor, from which he was raised apparently a Useless, shapeless mass. In the course of his fall he stniek a projecting corner of the staircase, breaking an inch board across the grain, und further down he struck ami broke an oak baluster an iuck in diameter. Numerous fractures and a terrible scalp wound were produced by this frightful fall. The right arm wits crushed into pieces above and below the clliow, both lej were broken at and near the ank joints, and innumerable contusions were received all over the laxly.— Notwithstanding these drendfril'in juries, under skillful surgical cure the child not only recovered, but now has perfect use of all his limbs. The amount of internal revenue collected thus far during the fiscal year is almost A139,000,000, and the commissioner* estimate that it will amount to about $146,000,000 by the first of next month. This is $20,- 000,000 more than Mr. Delano, in his report last December, estimated would be collected this year, and shows an increase of about 16 per cent, in the business of the country from which internal revenue is dorived. As the production of whiskey has greatly falleu off, the increase in other branches mvst have Irvu considerably greater.
