Philadelphia, Nov. 18, — A trage dy without a paral'el in the hisioiv ol Ibis or any other city’s ciim wbs en acted In the Lombard street Protest ant Episcopal church to day. The enngregation had assembled, and the pastor had begun the sermon, when a mtui of genteel appearance, but with a wild, uncertain eye, euteied the church aud sat in ono of the rear pews. The iHteiruption which his entrance caused was but slight, and before the sermon was concluded his presence was forgotten. When the benediction was about to be pronounc | ed, however, he jumped to his feet and walked to a pew directly behind the one occupied by Vis. Elizabeth Sawyers. He hesitated fora me ment before entering, but finally went in and assumed a reverential air until the blessiug was concluded Nr sooner had tho last winds of the minister died away than the strangei quickly drew a derringer pistol from his pocket, and, mkingdbliherate aim shot Mrs. Sawyers in the back. There wt re screams of alarm from the wo men in the church, and the men, as soon as they could rece.e 1 ' from the paralysis which seemed to be upon them, rushed to wher the Idly had fallen. The ni n who had fired stood still t.n a in . liieiit and looked upou his work, and then coolly leturned the weapon to his pocket and walked rap idly out of tlie building. Only one gentleman—a demon, George Miller— had presence of mind tu follow him. hen the assassin quitted ihe builitii g, he walked rapidly toward Eleventh and Loin' aid 11 . .i- whore he was overtaken and uir.-s ed by his pursu-r-, w o iecoguiz i fee man as Alexander B. the wounded woman’s husband. W lien Mr. Miller asked him the reason for his terrible conduct, lie made no reply, but began complaining of his head, and walked quietly with him to the station. Meantime Mrs. Sawyers was re moved to the basement ot the church The blood from the wound stained the fi.air as th-j carn’el her along, and-he seemed to be dying. The ball an unu ui hy la g • ue, had entered the k v i ti e hit ui g. The physician probed fur it, l u was una bio to 5i and 'lie lodging place. Mis. Sawyers, rapidly sink n-, was then re moved to th Pennsylvania hospital, and is not expected to live through thr night. Sawyers is either temporally de ranged or pretends to I■. N> recson is assigned for his murderous as au . It is said that the man i- a monoman iac on the subject of dyii gin the poor house, and that he had charged his wife and two boos with conspiracy to ruin hint. The event causes great ex citement and indiu nation. Bainbridge Deinociat: On last Sun dity, Nov. llili, and about half past twelve o’clock, ilie itsid. nee of John Green, coloted, took tire. At that John and bis wife were gone from, lionit and bad leit three small children securely cosed up in the bouse. Two of these were burned entirely up, wb:b. tbe eider of the three crawled through a hole near tl.e door and escaped front the awful fate ot being burned to death. The one who escaped says “that a coal of fin popped an some quilts, w < h we<e laid n front of the hearth, the fire then caught to !ho beds.” This should be a warning to parents who are it: the habit of leaving small children at hornet will - >ut pours one to take care of them. Snei.it Sundays ago, a collection was about to he taken up ic t ■ church ana iu tin abseuce ot one of tb c 1 frisky yout g man volunteered his services, and bat,died bio bat with great success. When he got near the door, be was about t< go out with bis bat full of money on bis bead, when the minister said s-- emnlv: “Young mn, if you h-av here with that money you’ll be dam ned.” fto young man, however, left m a buriy, and, as be shut the door behind hire, a worthy old bachelor, with a voice in F sbaio, who had put a dollar in the hat, piped uj to the Miiniater: “Well, if be ain’t gone with it, I’ll be Yl—n •” A Dead Hear—A Lowell firm recent ly sent a lot of bills West for collection The list came back with the result noted against each name, one being marked “dend.” Three months after tbe same bill got into a nw lot that was forwarded, and when tbe list can e buck the name wasmark# "'still dead” LETTER FROM A/S.

A cheetful view of Washington is givou in a story onto told by Mrs Madison to u little girl, who now re peats it in Lippineo t. “One day in Philadelphia,” s lid Mrs. Dolly Madi son, “I was sitting in my parlor with a veiy dsar frinl, Mrs. R. B. Lee, when in walked Payne Todd (heron) dressed in my calico bed-gown While we were laughing at the figure he cut, the servant threw open the door and announced General and Mis. Washington. What to do with that dreadful boy 1 didn’t know. He could not face the President in that garli.— Neither could he leave tho loom with out meeting them, f.>r tho door they were entering was the only one. I made him crawl quickly under a low, broad settee vn which 1 tvas sitting. I had just time io arrange the drapery when the WaAiiugtous eutered. Af ter the courtly greeting, and the usual compiimeuts of 'he season, there came from uuder the settee a heavy sigh, whi' h evidently at'racted the General’s notice. However, I on y talked and laughed a little louder, hoping to di vert his attention when—oh, tin ! there came an outcry aud a kick that couid not be ignored. >Bo I stooped down and dragged Payne out by the leg.

He nearly went into convulsiuus The sight of t tat boy in that gown, all uo unexpected, coming wrong end first from under my sea'. - it war too much.” A FARMER OUTWIITED. A fanner who w >s as niggarlly a man as ever breathed, contrived by his parsimonious habits to amass great wealth. He was likewise c< n scieuceles-1, and scrupled at nothing thut would add a pound io Ins pile.— Not far lrom bun lived a shiftless sort •>f fell, vvs, who Joveil to steal bettei than to work, ad the farmer said to him once “Clem, I will give you a shilling a bushel for all the potatoes you will bring me, and I don’t cate w. ere you get them.” Clem jumped at the chance, but H-kod him where ha could get them. “I don’t care where. Of course vou will steal them, but that’s none of my business.” The bargai was ruck, aud every night tor u week C.em would dtive to 'he farmer’s house with a load ot pu tntoes, cany them into the cellar, and leceivo Ins pay f i then*. At length he ael.ed him where he got them. “Stole ’em.” “Where del you steal’em, Clem?” “Oil, up in your si l- hi 1 lot,” re plied th other, whi e a gut* took pos session of his face. He got aiiy in time to save his back, but that farmer hasn't bargain ed with him since to steal anything. GEN GORDON. We find this, in reference to our dis tinguished Senator, iu the Capital, a news-paper published in Washington city, for a late c py of which we are indebted to the Hon. W. E. S.xii h : “We are gra'ified to learn, from the almost unanimous testimony o I t'i> Georgia pre-s, that the tendency ot the canvass for the legislature now pending in tha S ale is to assure the le-elcvtiou ot General Gordon to Ihr Senate. The South always understood the secret of power in deliberative bodies, and acted upon it by re-elec mg its representative men as long a.- they were phy-ical y aide to perform the functions of t.ffioe. No Southern senator has greater power and toati Gordin. No other man who might be et< eted could hope'o rep ace him in the estini ition ot his ol eugui-s and of the whole country. He is in the prime of life an at tl e threshold of th.it commanding infßa .ce whi. h o h ng but e-peiier.ce c n toing to a member of the Sena : e.

A DARKEY MAKES HIS HOME IN A C A NEB RAKE. The Macon Telegraph relates an in cident which occurred in the swamp of the Ocinulgee river, a few miles be low Maoou, one day last week. A gehtl. man had goue out hunting. A bird which Ue had shot fell into the thick caue break. In looking for the game he rousted a negro idru from a large hollow in a poplar tree trunk He ad s’ored away in that recep. table quite a quantity ot stolen corn, axe handles und various other articles This was his home aud he led a her mit life during the day aud became a marauder at irght. It lightning was a little more effective with colored sub je. ts a stroke in that dnoction might be beuefirial to the community. Ailart > agreed to furnish a capitol to the state for ten years, and it is said i-he has not complied with her contract. Such is not W>e fact. She luruished in the first instance tlie City Hall, wnich was not la'go euougli.— She then rented the opera house from Kimball at six thousand dollar . a year and when t'e 8' ite pu chased the building of Kimball, she paid one hundred thousand dollars of tkt purchase money, or tbn thousand dollars h year. Now, it is not presum able that Atlanta had auythiug to do with the sale of that building as she lost forty thousand dollars by the ope ration. Atlanta is no way responsible for what K'inball did, aud it is unjust to attempt to saddle all the meanness ind frauds perpetrated upon Atlanta’ -Rome Bulletin. S-yr the Marietta Journ.l : “Mr Cicero Emory eloped with Miss Julin- Shadner, his wife’s younger siater, ast Sunday evening, taking the four o’clock train at this place, going to ■var Chattanorga.

Heretofore there have been bul few inclosed pastures. The cattle anil ho'ses have ranged at will over the praties, aud when a norther prevails they become widely scattered. When the spring of the year returns, then a dozen or more of the young men of a neighborhood mount their mustangs' taking each a spare horse, the com* piny having several sumpter horses, and scour the prairies for many miles, sometimes fifty or sixty in one direc tion. These excursions last about ten days or two weeks. They bivouac at night cook their eeldom enter a house, drink of black, toffee, generally without sugar, kill a yearling when they need meat, and are truly rough and ready riders. This kind of life seems to have an in expressible charm for the young men" It is an exciting scene to see them in full chase, with their lariats whirling over their heads, ],their murtan'js as much excited by the race as them selves. From this school caries the noted Texas ranger, and it would be hard to find a belter training for a cavalry soldier.
