building was apparently cut with i

upright pieces of timber to which i
was nailed, and the planks split of
sufficient to admit a man's arm

Yesterday morning, between five
:mi<l six o'clock, poliocgiau Jennings
diMOverei a'hoiruleaU negro, named
Randolph Barnes,' moving along one
of our streets with a suspicious look
ing bundle in his possession. He im
mediately arrested him, -uid started
with him to police headquarters, when
the prisoner tendered “leg bail.” The
alarm of his escape spread among the
“ stars” on adjacent “ beats,” which
gave rise to an animated chase, in
which several shots were fired at the
escaped prisoner, noiy?, however, tak
ing effect. He was soon cornered and
re-arrested by the police, and his
bundle found to consist of two hams
and three sides of salt pqrk. Not
being able to render a satisfactory
“why and wherefore” in the matter,
Barnes was escorted to the guard
house, from whence he was brought
before Justice Olin, yesterday morn
ing, who committed him for trial at
the' Superior Court, in default of
$1,500 bail, the circumstances evi
dently justifying the conclusion that
he was ip some manner connected
with the robliery of Mr. Easterling’s
smoke-house.
The pieces of pork found in posses
sion of the prisoner were turned over
to Mr. Easterling.

Fire,
Yesterday morning, about 11 o’clock,
a fire broke out in a small wooden
building on the premises of Rev. W.
J. Hard, on Greene street. The build
ing was used, we learn, by E. 11.
Derry, Esq., as a stable and store
house for horse-food, and is located in
immediate contiguity to the residence
of Dr. Edward Geddings, on Camp
bell street, and in dose proximity ton
number of other residences. The
prompt response of our gallant fire
men to “Big Steve’s” summons, and
the very complete facilities at -their
command, confined the fire to the
building in whieh it originated, and,
by dint of timely exertion, the flames
were subdued with only partial dam
age to the stable and store-house.
The contents of the store-house—a
good supply of fodder —were muph
damaged by fire and water, the latter
element being expended with particu
larly lavish hands.
The origin of the fire is a matter of
conjecture, but it is probable that it
was communicated from careless hand
ling of a load of fodder thrown into
the building yesterday morning.
OUR SECOND FIRE,
For which an alarm was sounded be
tween three and four o’clock p. m.,
did not occur—not much that we
know of. Although we are not ambi
tious to sec anything burned, w« 1 l«VO
a decided objection to fire alarms with,
out a cause; they are too trying on
our soles, in view of the recent de
struction of Lynn, and the probable
advance of shoes.
Assault and Battery.
Wm. Monroe (colored), was brought
before Justice Olin, yesterday morn,
ing, on a charge of assault and bat- ,
tery, Saturday last, on the person of ,
Thomas Gray, a colored brother. The '
prisoner, in connection with another ;
pugilistic individual of like color, went
to the house of Gray on Saturday and >
created a disturbance, beating and ;
bruising the latter to an outrageous
extent. So pertinacious wins the
attack made on Gray, that he onfy
succeeded in ejecting the ruffians from
his house by the free use of a knife
among them.
Justice Olin imposed a sentence of
three months’ confinement at hard
labor, and a fine of SSO and eMts, on
Monroe.
Stealing Bridge Plank.
John McGee (colored), who pro
fesses to be an exemplary member of
the Baptist Church, was up before
Justice Olin, yesterday morning, on a
charge, by tlte City authorities, of
stealing a plank from one-of the city
bridges, on Sunday last. Hie caec
was Oxamined, and John was sen
tenced to two months on the C bain
Gang. In consequence of the reported
sickness of John’s family, Justice Olin
granted the alternative of the pay
ment of a fine of sls and coats:

Saving Trouble.
Yesterday morning a negro man
was brought before Justice Olin on a
charge of stealing turkey* from a
gentleman named H.nnfrond, in. Ham
burg. To avoid all the trouble inci
dental to procuring a requisition from
the Governor of, ..South Carolina,
Justice Olin suggested to the culprit
the idea of going hack with Mr.
Hammond, to South Carolina, where
he might 1 prov* lc< innocence. The
“man and brother” at once bit at the
bait thrown out. 4
. Chief ConM*Vk Hubbard, <4 S' llll '
Il'Brolitß, with five Cr six ieputius-,
| went to Abbeville Court House,« lbw
days ago, and arrested Mr. Charles N.
Dendy, on a charge of complicity in
the murder, a few months ago, of
Janies Martin, niemlier of the South
Carolina legislature. Mr. J. Fletcher
Hodges, a sou of General George
Hodges, was also arrested for com
plicit)’ in the murder of B. F. Ilan
ilolpli, a negro member of the Legists
ture. Ben Thomson, a negro, was
also arrested for implication. in tlie
murder Os Martin. The/prisoners
were carried to Columbia, where an
application will be made for their
release on bail, the community of
Abbeville being well satisfied that the
parties arrested arc innocent of the
crime alleged.

Tax on Building Associations.
The Commissioner of Internal Rev
enue has decided that building associa
tions loaning money on real estate are
liable to a special tax as bankers, as
per Section 79, paragraph 1, of Act of
June 30th, 1804, which says: “Every
person, firm, or company having a
place of business where money is
loaned or advanced upon bonds, stocks,
bullion, mils ol” exchange, or promis
sory notes, is regarded as a banker.”
This comprehends the loaning of
money on r<ul estate. As bankers,
building associations should also make
a return each month of the amount of
capital used, for the tax of one-half of
one-quarter per cent., as provided in
Section JlO, Act of June 30th, 180.8 s
A Case of “Uncontrollable
Frenzy.”—About a week since a very
enterprising young gentleman, who is
the happy possessor of a wife as beau
tiful as heart could desire, had occa
sion to go West on business, with the
expectation of being gone some time.
Returning sooner than expected, he
reached Albany city a day or two
since at an hour when the gray of the
morning was mingling with the shades
of night, and of course found the
family all in bed. Gaining admission
With his night key, he at once pro
ceeded to his wife’s apartment and
rapped for admission, at the same time
announcing who he was. At the men
tion of his name he thought he de
tected a smothered exclamation of sur
prise, and then some one got hurriedly
from the bed , ln ,i sopxrht refuge in a
closet adjoining the bed room.
he heard distinctly, as he waited in
the cold, with the demon of jealousy
tugging away at his heart. There
was some one in his wife’s room;
there could be no doubt of that; and
that some one had sought refuge in
the closet was equally clear. Who
else could, it be than a lover ?
Mad with jealousy, furious and in
dignant, he could scarcely wait for the
door to be opened before he burst into
the room and made for the closet.—
His wife interfered and begged that
he wouldn’t open the door concealing
this disturber of domestic peace.
'This only confirmed his suspicions,
and lie allowed himself to be carried
away by an “uncontrollable frenzy.”
JMgjed by Ji “insane impulse,” he
dashed his wife aside furiously, but
she clung to the tails of his coat. The
strain ma le upon those useful apjicn
dages at last compelled them to give
way.and the angry husband threw
wide open the door of the closet, t#id
lo ! instead of the cunning libertine,
his astonished eyes rested on one of
the prettiest girls imaginable. She
was passing the night with his wife,
and trying to avoid meeting him in
dishabille, brought about a very em
barrassing developement. The gentle
man, however, it may be as well to
state, prosecuted his searches no
further, and, instead, made a hasty
retreat. He dislikes very much to
hear anything about an “uncontrolla
ble frenzy.”— Albany Express.
A Rigorous Order.—Two rTencn

Two Children Burned Alive.—
Near Dresden, Weakly county, Ten
nessee, a negro woman, former!) the
slaves of Mr. Wm. Jones, burnt two of
her children to death. She lived in a
cabin some distance from the other
houses on the farm, and was always
regarded as a very vicious negro. She
dug a hole in the ground near the
cabin, in which she placed both her
children, covered it over with plank,
and actually cooked the children alive.
The same <l«y some citizens discovered
the facts, whieh they at once made
known to the Sheriff of the county,
who proceeded to the place and effect
ed her arrest. In reply to some ques
tions as tn why she did such a horrid
act, she replied that her children
would not oboy her, and she was de
termined to make them do so if she
had to kill them. It is generally be
lieved that she will be hung, and many
were in favor of inflicting the same
punishment upon her that she had in
flicted upon her children.
—Bismark’s daughter, whose be
trothal to a South German nobleman
was lately announced, is a slender
giri, of medium height, dark brown
hair, bluish gray eyes, a somewhat too
high forehead, and very pretty hands.
She is her father’s favorite child, and
said to be possessed of marked litera
ry ability. Both of her brothers,
strong, hearty lads, arc destined for
the diplomatic career, and the Prime
Minister sees to it that they devote a
great deal of attention to the study of
modern language.
—An Englishman proposes to over
come monitors with vessels armed
with engines, which will throw water
into the port-holes and wot the pow
der, and into the smokestack and put
out the fires, when the “intrepid tars”
will “board the helpless log” and take
it into port. He proposes tints to “put
an end to maritime warfare.”
—•Certain Sweedish philosophers ex
posed a condemned criminal to a pro
cess that froze him hard and solid.
The body has been placed in a cold
vault, and, in after years, it is to be
thawed out, the philosopher- claiming
that the man will wake up refreshed
and lively aftA - his long sleep.
—The largest Bible , class in the

effectual to give a teaapoontul o f Puk Killer in a
gill of hot water sweetened with BB gar; then,
after about fifteen miuutea, begin u> give a table
spoonful of the same mixture every minute until
, relief waa obtained. Apply hot applications to
tho extremities. Bathe tho stomach with Pain
Killer, clear and rub the limbs briskly. Os thorn
who had the cholera, and took the mpdicine faith
fully in tho way Mated above, eight ont of teu
recovered. Years, truly,

Gentlemen— * * ’ I want to say a little
more alwut the Pain Killer. I consider it a very
valuable medicine, aud always keep it an hand.
I have travelled a good deal since I nave been in
Kansas, and never without takiug it with me,
In my practice 1 used it freely for the Asiatic
Cholera. >« 1349, an-i with better xuereee than any
other medicine ; I also usccl it here for cholera iu
1855, with the same good result.
Truly, yours, A. HUNTING, M. D.

Cholera! * * * I regret to say that the
cholera Iras prevailed hero of late to' n fearful
extent. For the last three weeks, from teu to
fifty or sixty fatal cases each day has been re
ported. I shonld mid that/he Pain Killer, sent
receuily ln>m the Mission House, has been used
with considerable success during this epidemic.
If taken in season is generally effectual in cheek

Summer Complaint and Dysentery.
Bowel complaints seem just now to be the
prevailing element, and any medicine that is
everywhere acceptable, and that is reliable, is a
very desirable acquisition. From what we have
seen, heard, and experienced, we believe Davis'
Pain Killer is this desideratum. For the beet
method of mung it, we quote from the directions:
“For common bowel complaints, give one tea
spoonful in a gill of new milk and molasses,'iu
equal parts, stirred well together; lessen the dose
for children, according to the age. If the pain be
severe, bathe the bovvels aud buck with the medi
cine. This mode of treatment is good in cases of
the cholera morbua. sudden stoppages, etc. Re
peat the dorse every hour.
“The quickest way I ever saw the dysentery
enred was by taking one spoonful of the Pain
Killer in one gill of milk aud molasses stirred
well together and drank hot, at the same time
baihiug the bowels freely with medicine Let
thedowi.be rapeated everj- hour until the patiert
isrelieved.”
If every person who has reason to fear this
disease would provide themselves with a bottle
of this medicine, and use as occasion required, we
believe igreat amount of suffering aud sickness
