Brown, and he did not know that Brown had
anything against him. 1t was Sunday-there
was more drinking on that day than any other
1t was generally our best day. There were six
or seven boarders; all but one had been drink
ing, and were SO much intoxicated that when
they came to testify they did not know much
about 1t. Brown had two fights, one below and
the other above stairs Prisoner had parted
him from his antagonist both times He was
not IN the habit of carrying pistols, but during
the fracas he had picked up the pistols and put
them In his pocket, for fear that mischief might
be done with them. Brown was angry with
the prlsoner-drew knife from his pocket and
swore he would kill him. Prisoner instantly
drew pistol and shot him. i was intoxica-
ted, said he. If had not been intoxicated, |
would never have been here, and guilty of this
crime. Since have been in the habit of drink

Taking a Newspaper.

1t always has the appearance of self lnteres-
tedness when conductors of newspapers recon-
mend the public in general, and their friends In
particular to subscribe. But the n. Y Signal
has the following beautiful and touching speci-
men of poelical ability, which it truly says, 'af-
fects the heart and takes captive the understand
ing. it is as man may say, magnificent.
Gross exaggeration could not be laid to the
door of him, who should call it superb 1t con-
vinces while it delights. We recommends it 10
the people who write elegies, as model of the
pathetic sublime. There is a moral to it-a
useful lesson, which should be conned over and
learned by heart. We know nothing, in the
whole range of classic literature, superior to it, :"

knew two friends, as much alike
AS e'er you saw two stumps;
And no phrenoogist could find
A difference in their bumps.
One took the papers, and his life
Was happier than a kings;
His children all can read and write,
And talk of men and things.
The other took no papers, and
While strolling through the wood,
tree fell down upon his crown,
And hurt him as it should!
Had he been reading Of the news
At home, like neighbor Jim,
I'll bet cent this accident
Would not have happened him.
