Autl-CorrosSve Pens.
We have used some of Mr. Jacobs'
“ Amalgam Pens,” and find them a
pleasant and durable article. The ad
vantages which they seem to possess
over the ordinary steel pens are, that
they arc not as liable to cut the paper
and spatter, and that they do not af
fectehe ink by corroding. They are for
sale by Geo. A. Oates.

Mr. John Rldler and another gentle

horse took fright and ran off, and Mr.

A Clliictkliig Treat.
An incident occurred in connection
with tiie parade of one of our popular
military companies, on Satuday, which
is too good to he lost. It seems that
there have been frequent exhibitions of i
waggery played off alternately by the
Charleston and Augusta boys upon each
other, and on this occasion flliarleston
took her turn, after the manner where
of we are about to record.
Certain parties who vegetate in the
neighborhood of the Charleston Hotel
are well posted in all that relates to
Mixer’s wine cellar, perhaps. They are
as familiar with the ages of his various
fluids as they are with those of their
“household idols,’’ and are not alto
gether strangers to the weaknesses of
some of the Augusta boys in such cases
made and provided. Hence it was re
solved that the “Winches'’ should re
ceive some slight token of affectionate
notice to stir up a becoming emulation
at their parade, and keep alive the
time-honored ties of fraternal regard
that have existed between the military
of the two cities. Accordingly a pack
age of Mixer's best brandy', “vintage of
1801,’’ was delivered to the care of the
Express Company, and a telegraphic dis
paten announcing its shipment caused
the hoys to endure a marvelous degree
of fatigue without pouring down any
thing to keep the spirits up—tli e officers
quietly suggesting the danger of mix
ing liquors might have upon their
nerves. Os course there was great anx
iety for the arrival of the box aforesaid,
and when it came, borne to the ground
by a man at each end—so heavy was its
contents—the welkin rang with bus
zas of welcome. Drawing the men in
to line, the Captain made some appro
priate remarks—all hands were suppos
ed to be so thirsty as to render more
than a few, tedious—alluding in glow
ing terms to the generosity and chival I
ry of the Charleston military, and closed i
with a graceful wave of the hat, and a
call for “three times three to thc-
Washington Light Infantry, and the
gallant donors of the magnificent testi
monials before them.” Then there was
a pause, as all hands fell to, to test the
virtues encased beneath its ample di
mansions.
Not a Arum was heard, not a weUome note,
gave the strokes as the box was uncovered,
And a quiet ahem i to clear the throat,
As around in silence they eathored.
At length it was opened, and judge of
the feelings of the Captain and th’e
crowd, as thirsty had been en
thusiastic. as armful after armful of hay.

Horrible Tragedy in an Illinois Pi n*
1 itcutiary.
To the Alton Courier of March 9th,
- we are indebted for the following par
ticulars of one of tiie most singular and
terrible tragedies ever known to have
occurred in the whole country. The
Courier’s account of the circumstances
was closed on Monday night, the Bth,
at 12 oclock. The Courier says :
; A convict named Hall, from Chicago,
, who is now serving out a second term,
formed the idea of acquiring his liberty
in the following method : He watched
his opportunity shortly after breakfast,
and when no other guard was in the
hall surrounding the cells, except Mr.
I Crabb, whom he knocked down and
• stunned by a severe blow on the head,
. and then dragged him into one of the
, lower cells, tied Crabb’s hands behind
his back, fastened the cell door by
- means of a stick of timber, previously
put in the cell by some confederate,
then drew a huge knife from his bosom,
assisted Crabb to rise, put him against
the door, and threatened him with
. death unless he was allowed to go at
’ liberty,
The most daring, attempt was soon
I I known, and promptly brought Colonel
liuckmaster and his guards to the spot.
' The convict threatened Crabb with in
stant death if any attempt was made
i upon tiie door, holding his knife within
[ a couple of inches of Crabb’s breast.
For upwards of an hour Col. Buckmas
ter and bis guards watched an opportu
■ nity to shoot him, but there being but
i one opening in the door and that quite
small, he kept Crabb constantly between
him and the opening, so that lie could
only be reached through Crabb’s body.
Thus matters continued until noon,
1 when Crabb made some effort to open
• the door, hut was immediately cut se
{ vcrcly in the hand by the convict. Du
ring the day the convict stated his terms
: of submission to be a revolver, loaded
fl by himself, a full suit of citizen’s dress,
, SIOO in money, and to be driven out of
town in a close carriage, accompanied
1 by Crabb, to such a place as be should
i designate; all of which were of course
inadmissible. In the meantime, how
ever, Col. Buckmaster procured a par
don from the Governor, to be used at
’ his discretion ; but up to 12 o’clock last
[ night no information of it had been
i given to the convict. All day the
guards were on the watch to shoot the
' scoundrel, but as he had posititively de
i dared he would kill Crabb if he was
not instantly killed himself, great care
had to bo taken, for fear he might put
his threat into execution. Crabb Inal
no arms whatever, the yard guards not
being allowed to carry any, and had
nothing whatever to defend himself
from any attack of tiie desperado.
About eleven o’clock last night, - one
the guards got a shot at him hut avert
ed his fire upon a change of position for
fear of shooting Crabb.
The entrance to the cell is very nar
row, the door of plate iron with a small
grating at the top for ventilation. The
door opens inwards and is very strong
ly fastened. It is impossible to get at
the scoundrel without using great force, J
which we learned would be applied this
morning, unless he should be shot du
ring the night. During the day
great fears were entertained that he
would kill the guard, and for fear of
that active operations were not pushed
forward. Those best informed think
there is now very little danger of his
putting bis threats into execution, -as
he must know that death would instant
ly tie his lot.
Yesterday everything was done which
could be done consistently with Crabb’s
safety. No chance would the convict
give for any injury to himself, as he
either studiously kept the guard be
tween him and the grating, or laid down
against the door, and out of the reach
of shot. He professed to have no, ill
feeling to Crabb, but had deliberately
planned this method of gaining his lib
erty, and would kill Crabb and then
kill himself, unless he was pavdoned
and taken out in tiie manner stated. j
j Before our readers see this account |
| this morning, the desperado will either j
j have been taken or killed. ,

Alton. March 9, Bki o’clock, P. M.
At nine o’clock this morning, Ruther-1
ford, the State Superintendent, and Col. \
Buckmaster, warden, undertook to get j
into the cell of the prisoner by strata-'
gem. Breakfast was set at the cell door j
in vessels of iaiger size than ordinary, ;
but the convict refused to open the door I
until the hail was cleared. The warden, :
superintendent and guards were on each I
sida of the cell, but out of sight and j
motionless. The convict slowly open
ed thudoifr nearly enough to admit the
food when a crowbar was instantly in
serted Ibe warden cried out to Crabb
the imprisoned guard, to fight for his
life. He accordingly sprang to the
opening of the door, and at length
dragged himself through, but not be
s ire he was stabbed by the convict nitre
times, seven times in the back and
twice in the arms. When the poor vic
tim wasdiagged out, the convict barred
the door again and refused to yield. He !
was-lhen given a few minutes for re-i
ili-C'tion, and the rebel was, after much
dodging and effort, to get out of the
reach of the lire, shot by tha warden.
eLe ball struck hisskull just below the .
left ear, aud glancing around lodged
under the skull. He fell instantly and
wasdiagged out the cell and was
thought to be dead, but Soon recovered
and talked as sensible as any man could
under the circumstances. After the .
convict was taken out of the cell, his I
knife, about eight inches long, with a j
double edge, was found in the cell, and |
on his person was found also another
larger kife, with a blade four inches
long. Crabb, the wounded guard, was
immediately taken to the hospital, andj
1 his wounds were examined and dressed j
i by Dr. Williams, the prison surgeon,;
and Allen. The left lung was found toi
be twice perforated by the knife. The
other wounds were not dangerous. As-I
■ ter his wounds were dressed he feltj
. quite comfortable, and conversed very
freely. He expressed a sense of his
dangerous condition, but was calm andi
■ hopeful. His wife visited him about’
j eleven o’clock to-day, and he bore him- ]
self, with much fortitude throughout j
i the interview His physicians consider
ibis case very critical, aud that the j
chances are much against his recovery.!
i 'i ire convict was laid on a matrass in j
I the prison hall. He stud he hoped j
t Crabb would live, and in the next breath'
said he had put five men in the same
i fix he was in himself.
. Dr. McMasters was present, and en-l
. deavored faithfully to draw his atten-1
lion to the fact of his near appvoacii to!
> death. He exhibited no penitence or
remorse, but said he “hoped that God, (
if there was any, would forgive him.”
He sent for one of his confederates, and |
. advised him to behave himself when he I
got out, and not bring himself to what j
he saw before him.
. From the boats and passengers which j
came down the river to-day we learn J
' other particulars, which are only corro-j
- borativc and not so full as the above;
* dispatch.
’ It Li stated that everything was done!
during the night to surprise tiie eon
’ vict into a capture, but that he was!
’ vigilant and bloody from one minutes)
j end to the other, and amused himself
1 from time to time by pricking his vic
’ tim with the point of his knife. It is
' | not stated in our dispatcli at what time
: j the convict died, hut we learn from
j other sources that he survived his
[ wounds hut a short time.
It would, perhaps, be unjust to make
; any animadversions upon the conduct
, of the penitentiary officers until the de
’ j tails have been more fully furnished.—
1 j But from tire facts now before us, it
; ! seems that more might have been done
do save the life of the unfortunate
! guardsman, Crabb. Why not have
' agreed to every demand the villian
made, and then have shot him down
| J like a (log? Surely promises exacted
j by a wretch, under such aggravating cir-1
■ cumstances are of no moral force.
’ The pardon of the Governor was rea- j
! dy, a revolver might have been placed |
1 in liis hands, the money given him, and j
-a carriage provided, into which!
even lie and Crab.) might have been.
’ placed ; but undoubtedly the moment
. would have come when he might have
been assailable without ally risk to!

The following circumstance is related
i to us by one of our prominent citizens,
i who received the intelligence by letter
• from his wife, now residing in the State
! of New York. On the night of the
terrible destruction of tiie Pacific Hotel,
1 a little brother of Mr. Henry Rochester,
living at home with his parents, near
Avon, in the State of New York, awoke
some time after midnight with scream
ing and tears, saying that the hotel in St.
■ Louis was on fire , and that his brother Henry
was burning to death. So intense was his
alarm and horror, that it was with
considerable difficulty he could be quiet
i ed. On the following day at noon, the
parents received a telegraphic dispatch
