St. Helens. ; It ap peared that William Gore and another man named Rad ciffe were returning from a. pigeon-flying match, where they had acted as " scouts," that is, they watched the boundary in which the pigeons had to fly, and were provided ;with a loaded gun. When they had got into a field belonging to Mr. Thomas Barton, they were met by a young woman named Sarah Hart, who, coming up smiling, said to Radcliffe, who, was her sweetheart - , " What are you doing here ?" when Gore replied, "If thou donna hold thy dia I'll .shoot thee." The poor girl, not suspecting, dared . him to do it, when the . scoundrel deliberately levelled tLe gun at her and fired, the contents taking effect in her arm and side. She was carried home and„ attended, by two medical men, who are of opinion that she will recover, although she still lies in-a very precarious state. Gore was apprehended soon after and charged with the. offence, but a dis graceful mob assaulted the police and succeeded in rescuing him. He N,:as, however, again apprehended yesterday morning. GARSTON CommissioNuns.—The monthly, meeting of this body was held yesterday,—Mr. Morris in. the chair: The other gentlemen present were Messrs. Chidson, Cooper, Castellain,. and Watts. The proceedings of the Finance Committee were read and confirmed. The proceedings of the Works' Committee contained a report from the surveyor, recommending three seats to be placed on the Mersey-road, as offered by Mr. Melly. The clerk was instructed to inform Mr. Meily that the board did not object to the seats being placed on the sites pro posed. It was resolved, on.the recommendation of the committee, that the sewerage of Parkhill-road, .in junction with Sudley-road, be proceeded with at the expense of the board, and that the owners of property in Sudley , l'oad be served with notices to construct a main sewer in that road, and to drain their houses into it. A letter was read from Mr. Steele, secretary to the Gas Company, enclosing a form of contract which the company required the board to - enter into for the future lighting of the district. The letter was referred to the law clerk and . surveyor. A letter - was react from the inhabitants of some houses in Aigburth Hall-road, com plaining of a-severe inconvenience consequent on the de fective sewerage of the houses. The letter was referred to the Works' Cour - nit-00.

The picture represents the despair of the too tardy lover, who, on meeting with .Ins betrothed, finds, when it is " too late," that his absence and neglect have preyed upon and overthrown the 'physical health which could no longer sustain the agonising conflict. of love — devoted love, and harrowing suspense. The hollowcheek, with hectic flush and glistening .eye, together with the attenuated form of thehelpless maiden, speak with unmis takeable force that this world's joys or sorrows will not long affect her. She is attended by a sister, whose averted look and tearful eye confer additional interest on, and add expression to the reproof, and now useless remonstrance of the "dying one." The truant lover covers up his face with his arm, and so conceals his emotion, the extent of which is nearly altogether left to the imagination of the spectator. As a.whole the picture has many' merits, and once seen it will long haunt, the memory. It has also not a few defects ; one of which may be found in the rectilinear parallelism of its composition, and the prevailing white chalkiness of colour by which its pervaded. No. 61. "Mountain Torrent, Argyleshire," by R. S. Lauder, R.S.A.—This is a beautiful little picture, full of, detail, painted with a charming fidelity to nature. Its general tone is truthful and pleasing, pres , mting to the eye many of the peculiarities of Highland moun- fain scenery, painted with the minuteness of a daguerreo type, blended and harmonised with the feeling and skill and that this watch was offered in pledge about two hours after the murderous attack : in the first place ,at the shop of Mr. Topham, pawnbroker, and in the second instance, and successfully, at the pawnbroking establishment of Mr. Barrass, in Dyer-street. At the latter place the man pledged the watch for 4s. Nothing . more was heard about the timepiece, which was in the possession of the Leeds police until Saturday night last, when a young man, named James Smales, a collier; from Whitwood, near Normanton, presented himself at Mr. Barrass's shop, and tendered the ticket for the watch. Mr. Barrass at once took Smales to Mr. English, the chief constable at the police-office, to whom Smales made a statement, In consequence of the co-n- munication Mr. English - went over to \Vhitwood on Sunday morning, and saw John Fawcett and Andrew Batty, both miners. They stated that on the Monday after the murder they met _a young man in Castleford- street, named Charley Normington, and adjourned with him to a beer-shop, where they had some beer together. Normington stated, in the course of con versation, that he was a miner in search of work, upon which Fawcett agreed, to employ him as his "harrier" in, the pit at Whitwood. Normington went down into the pit both on Monday and Tuesday, but only worked during part of each day. On the Monday night he offered to sell a ticket for a watch—a German silver watch—to James Worseinan, and on the Tues day night he did succeed in selling it for ss. to Sri:ales. Normington told his companions that the watch had been previously in pawn for 265. ; and he informed another witness, Betsy Fawcett, that he had offered it on the Saturday night to Mr. Topham, bat that that gentleman declined to advance him as much money upon it as he (Normington) asked. Mrs. Dixon, the woman with whom Norrnington lodged at Whitwood, ob served him on one occasion in the act of washing a handkerchief, but said when she approached him he appeared perfectly `confused, and thrust the hand kerchief, wet as it was, into his bosom. She then saw that the water in which he had been washing was highly discoloured.

The return of emigrants 'from America is attributable to the commercial distress which during last year prevailed in the United States and British North America, and paralysed the usual means of employment. The smaller number who re turned from Australia consists, probably, of persoras who, having acquired property, have come back to enjoy it in the mother country. LEBANON.—Mulberry g roves rise all. around, spring ing from terraces worked for their reception over the mountain's face ; and from out their sun-checkered shade, the eye, ranging out into a brilliant atmosphere, first rests on a mountain village—its flat-topped houses looking in the distance mere cubes of yellow stone — perched on a rounded point that peeps above the sur rounding foliage ; then, gazing yet beyond, catches grey distant ridges of the Lebanon.

Wide and yet wider as you mount, the deep purple-blue expanse of sea spreads out beneath vou—not the blue strip you look on from a beach, but 'a - far-stretching sheet of deep yet brilliant lustre, specked with a white dot, the canvass of a far-off ship ; with the horizon-line so high, so hazy, and so distant, that, but for its deep tinge, sea might hardly be told from sky.
