GRANGER’S IMPROVED IRON WITCH. Patented December l s 1857. riMiE Patentee,in presenting this new X Stove to tbo public, deems it proper to make a few remarks in regard to itB^BSDg The old, wqll known IRON WITCH COOKING STOVE has been in the market about TEN YEARS, and has given very general satisfac tion ; but since the introduction of that titove, observation and experience has enabled me to make such improvements in my new IRON WITCH oa makes it a much better aud more de sirable Stove. * TLo oven bottom of tho improved IRON WITCII is better protected, aud the heat in tho oven more perfectly equalized by a Hue passing from back to front under the oven bottom. Tbo air Hue at the back of the oven bottom con ducts a large body of air along tho bottcin, and up between tho front ovon plate and firerback, pro tecting the latter aud equalizing the heat. This air, having become highly heated, passes through the oven, facilitate s the baking, and carries oft all smell and impurities. Meat baked in this oven will bo found entirely free from the dead baked taste usual to meats done in tho common air-tight ovens. Asa bread baker, this oven will give great satisfaction, and enable tho cook to turn out a lighter, more nutritious aud palatable bread. The Hue at the bade of the oven is divided so as to give much more heat towards the sides; by this means equalizing the lieat, and making it more intense at this point, at the same time preventing it from escaping into the stove-pipe before thor oughly heating the back and sides of the Stove. With the above improvements, the Patentee has also exercised all the experience of thirty years in tho stove business, in making this Stove STRONG and DURABLE. The plates aro so constructed and equalized that the expansion and contraction of the iron will not crack then, and all ilia parts are strengthened that come in iinmediuto contact with tb<‘ tire. In fact, no labor nor expense has been spared in ma king tho Improved Iron Witch the very host wood Cooking Stove in the market, and one that has no equal.

Another Ulooily All'ray in Baltimore, i Tlio Yvestora quarter of the city on Wednesday night, yyiys tho scene of an ntl'r&y, tho result of which yvbs tlio in stant killing of police officer Benjamin llonton, of the western district, by a shot from a pistol in tho hands of a man , named lleury Uambrill, tho keeper of a ! public house on Franklin street near j Howard. The Sun of Thursday gives the following particulars: It appears that a dance or some other kind of amusement was going on in a house on Biddle street, near Pennsylva nia avenue.

The ball entered immediately buck of the left ear, aWd passing entirely through tho nock, canto out at tho right ear, almost in a lino with its entrance. Benton released his hold on Houck and fell dead, the ball having severed the spinal cord and cut tho base of tho brain away, Uambrill escaped, but was afterwards arrested by Captain Linaweaver, and locked up with llouck and Isenhart at tho western station.

A Texas correspondent of tho Louis villo Journal gives the following particu lars of the brutal treatment of a man, named Harrington, a deserter from Camp Colorado, Yvho had been recaptured. 110 was a native of Louisville: Young Harrington was enlisted for the Second Cavalry, but deserted, and was brought back to Fort Smith. The citizen who brought him back must havo been moro of a fiend than human, lie traveled day and night, and until ten o’clock the next day without giving him a mouthful to cat. Capt. N. U. Evans, of this regiment, Yvas at tho Fort at the time, and Har rington was put in his company, nnd that day he had to walk 12 miles, hand cuffed, and dragging a ball and chain, before be got anything to eat. The second day’s march from Fort Smith was over a road called tho “Narrows,” the i roughest that wagons ever traveled, I i suppose. The wagons in going over it, would bounce and slide off the rocks four feet at a time. On the morning of tho second day tho captain ordered Harrington to be tied by the hands close up to the tail gate of the I wagon. At that time his wrist and fin j gers were so swollen that lie could not : bend them. The sentry who was put over him says that for moro than 100 ] times the ball Yvhich yviys attached to him by a chain and placed in the feed box, would, when the wagon came out of a hole or slide off a rook, jerk his feet from under him and all his weight would come on iiis wrist, aud his breast strike the feed box. The sentry, who saw that tho man wus almost dead, took the responsi bility to let liim get in the wagon, out, oi the sun aud dust, and gave him water to drink. Ho began to enliven nnd feel hot ter, when tbo sergeant of tho guard came up and raised h—l, nnd made the sentry tic the poor fellow up again. lie did not go moro than threo miles before tho ser geant seeing that the man was almost dead, ordered him to be cut down ; but. before ho reached the ground lie breathed his last. Harrington’s breast was beat almost to a jelly', aud his back, from his chin down, was as black ns could be. He told them, in tho morning, that if ho had to walk that day, tied to the wagon, he would bo a dead man before night. Ho begged nnd prayed them to shoot him, and pal him out of his misery. — Volunteer Astronautg. On Friday afternoon there was a bal loon ascension from the Illinois State Fair grounds at Centralia. Tho mronaut ascended at four o’clock p. m., nnd at six o’clock descended about ten miles south east of Centrulia, and fastening his bal loon to a fence, went into a house near by for refreshments. While ho was eat ing two boys, one eight years and the other four years old, clambered into the car of the balloon and unfastened tho rope. The balloon ascended rapidly, and when our informant left, nothing had been heard of tho young adventurers. We were dispased to doubt tho above story, but the LouinviUe Journal of the 21st inst. says: Mr. Mullin, of the John Gault, who arrived last night from Cairo nnd passed through Centralia, confirms it, and brings the welcome intelligence of the safety of the children. The oldest was a girl. It ap pears that the affair caused the most tremendous excitement, aud hundreds turned out and followed the balloon until it was out of sight. It is supposed that it went up two miles. On Sunday morn ing a farmer, who resided some nineteen miles from Ceatralia, discoved the balloon in a treo, where it had caught, arid tho children in it. Ho immediately climbed up on it, and found the little boy asleep, tlio girl having taken off her apron and wrapped it around him to keep liim warm. Neither of them seemed alarmed, and were yxirfeetly composed, lie brought the children and the balloon down, and couvey'od them homo. A Truth Telling Story. The following is the conclusion of u touching sketch, which appears in the Boston Herald: Thu proprietor was vexed. He tossed the shirt to his customer and said: ‘ Sir, you simply insult mu when you affirm that this garment is not clean— that it lias tho least stain upon it. You can leave my store, sir; I do not desire to see you again 1” There was a singular gleam in the eyes of the customer as ho dashed tho bundle upon tho floor, where ho trampled it.— Ho exclaimed in a frenzy : “It is stained—damnably ! I saw a pale young woman stitching it for a small price —for half price—for almost no price.— Her tears fell fast and scorching upon it! It is well you say you can make it no whiter by your washing ; for those tears, which were the blood of a soul, aro stitched into every Heani. 1 cannot wear it—’twould burn my bosom like tire 1 It was her last shirt; you huvo driven her forth, aud she now walks the path that leads to hell, every day. She’s a Broad way prostitute ! No, no, no, you can’t wash it out; you can never wash it out!” “Poor lunatic,” said the proprietor, “1 thought all along this man was crazy!” and he went immediately for an offioer to have his troublesome customer removed to a lunatic hospital. — Iloiuniy In Rag 4, This morning, says tho Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, n check for $Bl3 was drawn by Cummings k Cos., Market street, in favor of Anspach, Heed & Cos. The cheek was drawn on tho Mechanics’ Bunk, payable to beurcr, at the request of tho messenger of Anspach, Heed & Cos., no as to enable him to deposit it at once, ut the Girard Bank. Wile on tho way to the bank the check was dropped in Third street, and it fell into the hands of a poor broken down man who was literally in rag-, and who declared that he had eaten nothing since yesterday. The finder took the check to tlio Mechanics’ Bank, nnd frankly told he had found it in the street, and ho inquired tho place of business ol tho drawer. Ono of the tellers accom panied the man to the store of Cummings & Cos., and he afterwards took the check to tiie storo of tho losers, where wo pre sume he was handsomely rewarded.— There are many full fed and well dressed i men in whoso hands this check would have been fnr less safe than in the pos session of this genuine gentleman, who was lioncot in spile of his rags and hnn ! s i ' r - t Coi.rMßi s, Ohio, Bept. 23.— A woman named Schelling, at Groveport, in this i county, committed murder ye-tcnlay by | throwing into a well, thirty-five feet and. cp, her four children, one a hoy, the other tluee girls; the oldest twelve years, the 1 youngest two years.
