A MAN SHOT :

| The Harrisburg correspondent Of the Phil
adelphia Ledger writes a, follows:
| About one o'clock homicide occurred
below Harrisburg, at the two-mile lock- OH
the Pennsylvania Canal, in which one of the
party, named John Hines of Wyoming
county, was almost Instantly killed The
weapon used was a monstrous horse pistol -
1t appears that Washington Krilzcr, the de-
fcndant, and brother, from Milton, Pa, were
passing down the canal, when they met the
deceased (Ilnes) coming towards Harris.

about two hundred yards, and tied up-went
after Krizer, and baniered him TO fight
The Cook on Hines boat said that Hines re-
markcd-"'ll either fight or kill KriIaer, or
he must do that 10 me-" 1T appears that
krilzer had given the deceased hra>hing
OH a previous occasion lie went on kril-
zer's boat, but the latter being afraid of
him, told him 10 be OIL. Hines wanted to
know what he thrashed him for at The lime

hut stepped down into the cabin of his boat
Hines followed, and when on The last step of
the gangway, a report Of a pistol was
heard, and upon examination, ii was found
that Kritzer had shot him, from the ef-
fects of which shot he almost Instantly cX-
pired.
DIS. Dock and Seller, upon making post
morlem examination, found that the bali
had struck the feshy part Of his left arm,
glanced off, and passed through the abdo-
men, penetrating the kidney, aud was so
firmly lodged in the spine that lis removal
was deemed ineXepedient. Kli'zer immedi-
ately surrendered himself to the authorities

was committed.

able which, from Knowledge of his ahil-

case he will undoubtedly succeed in accom-

TERRIBLE CONFEDERATION IN BUFFALO

rue HNhdfed D"HdtnTS DeSF0ycd--Lo Loss
Half million Of DoIiorS
BurrALo, n. Y, Sept. 2G, . a. NJ
About four o'clock this morning, fire
broke out in wooden building on Peacock
street, situated in the very centre of what is
called the Five Points. A strong southeast
wind was blowing at the time, and the
buildings being wood, and very dry, the fire
spread with fearful rapdity, aud in less than
fifteen minutes the entire block of building.
on Rock and Peacock streets, llom the ship
canal and Erie streets 10 Evans, were in
flames,
Tho fire crossed Erie street and took the
large planning mill of the Messrs. Eaton, then
crossed Canal and L rie streets to the bridge,
sweeping everything on the opposite side of
The canal TO Terrace street, thence down
Terrace TO Mechanic street, or along both
sides of The canal here, after The greatest
exerlions on the part of the fremen and
citizens, the spread of the flames was
checked.
The number Of buildings destroyed is over
five hundred. Among them is the large
brick school-house on Erie street, in Dislric,
No. ..
A large amount of lumber in the Messrs.
Eaton's mill and yard were destroyed, Also
an immense quantity of lumber in the yards
of George Oenell and the MessIs. Farmer
and De Bloquiere.
The number of families turned out of
house and home by this disaster is great,
almost beyond conception. The most of the
houses destroyed being occupied by poor
families, many of them barely escaped with
their lives, SO feariully rapid was the pro-
gFess Of the flames.
