Homicide.—On Tuesday' evening fames Hall struak Robert Patterson on the head with a stick, from the effects of which he died yesterday morning.— The facts as we learn them are these. Hall was drunk, and approaohed a lumber of men employed to work on theGa. & Ala. R. R. and began to inter- vogate them. Patterson was an old man, and being somewhat deaf did not answer, whereupon Hall said he would make him answer, and with one blow of his stick felled him to the ground* Hall managed to elude the officers, and is now at large. JSyTho Democracy of Cass and WaU leer counties have fully and cordially •endorsed the action of theseceders from i Charleston Convention. The Official Cats or Paris.—“In the Budget of the Imperial Printing Office, whioh is now before the Legislative body," says the Pays, "is an item whioh has excited considerable curiosity—it is for cats. It appears that, in prder to preserve the stoies of papers, printed and unprinted, from theravages of mice and rats, a considerable number Of cats have to be kept in the establishment, and the expenses of giving them food twice a day, and of paying a man to watch over them, is sufficiently great to form a special item. These cats were once nearly the cause of war between the Director of the Imperial Printing Office and the Direotor of the Archives, whose gardens are adjacent. The lat ter has in his garden a small art ifu hi rirer, and kept in it a number of rare aquatic birds. He perceived that the number of his birds decreased almost daily, but he could not tell how; at last he discovered that they were killed by cats, and beset snares, by whioh a num ber of those animals were caught. The keeper of the cats in the printing-office perceived his feline stock diminishing, and he suspected the workmen of the establishment of killing them. But one day a cat arrived with a fragment of a snare round his neck, and led to the discoveiy of the whole truth. The di rector of the printing-office thereupon domplained that his cats were killed, while the director of the archives said that he would not allow his birds to be devoured; but at last an arrangement was made to the effect, on the one hand, that every issue of the printing-office should be closed to prevent the inva sion of cals into the gardens of the ar chives, and, on the other, that in the event of one by chance escaping it should not be put to death.

A Delicate Operation.—One of the most delicate manipulations in engi neering is about to be performed in connection wifti the lowering of the west supply pipe of the Croton Aque duct, which runs through Eighth ave nue. This pipe is 30 inches in diameter. It is to be lowed to a depth of ten feet below its position, without the water being stopped. In the upper part of the avenne, the work has already com menced. The earth is being excavated from over and under the pipe, and props are to be introduced until the whole excavation of 11 miles shall have" been completed. Then it will be lowered to its bed gradually, bo as to prevent the curve at any part of the pipe from breaking. It appears that the water cannot be shut off from the pipe, owing to the fact that a large por tion of the western district of the city is dependent or it for supply. If the pipe should break in the course of the operation, the disaster would be terri ble in its effects upon’ the adjacent property,' while the supply would be off most effectually.—-A. Y’ Tribune. Precious WiY^—A few days since, a little ragged urchin was sent by a trades man to collect a small bill. He began in the usual way, but. becoming more importunate, at length the gentleman’s patience becoming exhausted, he said to him, “You need not dun me so snarply ; I am not going to run away.” “I don’t suppose you are,” said the boy, scratching his head, “but my master is, and he wants the money.” Scene in the Interior or the Hun garian.—Mr. Sheridan, diver, has re turned to Halifax from Capo Sable. He descended several times into the wreck ed steamer. The Journal says: “The sconce which presented itself was appalling in the extreme; for al though there were no corpses in the in terior of the ship, there* were nearly twenty bodies discovered entangled in the wreck alongside and in the gullies close by. These frightful remnants of poor humanity exhibited all the stages of dismemberment, sans heads, arms, legs, Ac., and all more or less in a state of decomposition. Those seen appear to have been up and dressed, or partly so.as some of them were evidently in the act of putting on their shoes, stock ings, or clothing, when the king of terrors put a stop to their toilet for ever.” I. o.£*~*oo.

Apt Reply.—A good Elder brother in Presbytery a short time since, thought it wrong to talk about minister’s sala ries’. “For," said he, “when our Sa viour sent out his disciples, he told them to take neither gold nor silver, purse nor scrip; nor even two coats." And he took his seat with all the con clusiveness of manner which the use of a sound scriptural argument is calcula ted to beget. “But why, Mr. Moderator,” said an other brother in reply,-“did our Saviour tell his disciples not to provide these things? The very passage from which the brother quotes, answers the ques tion. The Saviour himself gives, as the reason: “because the laborer is worthy of his meat.” It was not the duty of his disciples to provide these things, but it was made the duty of those to whom the disciples were sent.” The quotation of our brother elder was correct enough, as-far as it went. But he stopped too short; he Bhould have read further. And this, we fear, is too often the trouble ; men are prone to quote so much of scripture only as will sustain a peculiar view, while if they would quote and properly apply the whole passage, their cherished errors would be made manifest. Take heed, brethren.—St. Louis Observer. The London correspondent of the Banffshire Journal says: “The copy of Mr. Carlyle’s two new volumes of Frederick, is. now in the hands of his publishers, Messrs. Chap man and Hall, but it will be a consider able time yet before the work in a per fected form reaches the public. Carlyle corrects, reeorrects, alters, and punctu ates, so scrupulously, that printers and publishers grumble, and the public grow impatient. {©•“Setting a man trap,” is the title given to a picture of a very pretty young lady arranging her curls before a mirror.
