The Louisville Tragedy.

Professor Butler, Principal of the High
School, at Louisville, il has been announc-
ed by telegraph, was shot by Mat. F. Ward.
oldest son of R. |. Ward, on Wednesday
morning. and died that night. The Cour-
Ter says of the lamentable transaction:
"He went 10 the High School accompa.
MED by two Of his brothers., Robert Ward,
a youth of sixteen. and William Ward. "a
smaller boy, and called for VIM. H. G
Butler, one of the teachers. A few words
passed between them, when Mr.. Ward
pulled out a pistol and shot Mr.. Butler
down. The ball penetrated his left breast.
over the heart, and he fell to the floor, ex-
claiming in his agony. 81 am killed-oh.

dropped his pistol. and accompanied by
his brother, retreated from the school room
aMr. Butler was able to rise from the
floor, and left the room, assisted by some
boys, but when in the street he fell again,
and was carried home. The ball could
not be extracted, and he bled inwardly

Of his pupils, the day previous, for telling

Fire in the Penitentiarv.

On Saturday morning a fire broke out
in the Penitentiary, at Columbus. The
Statesman says:
One hall OF the west range of shops was
entirely consumed. the walls being unfit to
rebuild upon-and for a long time during
the struggle, it seemed almost impossible
TO save any part OF that building-and al
n time. as the wind rose stronger, the
whole Prison was in great danger.
The loss to the Institution is about $500
besides the buildings. which cannot be re.
built short Of $4,000 or $4,000. But We
learn it has funds sufficient to complete
the new buildings in progress, and rebuild
this, without further aid from the State.
The loss of Hall & Brown is very heavy.
They estimate their stock in their prison
shops at $4,000. not over 5000 Of which
was saved. They were insured, but to
what extent we have not learned. Their
heaviest loss is in the arrangement OF
their business. The Messrs. Brown are
young and en~terprising men. with their all
invested in this business, and the loss will
fall heavily upon them.
Mr.. Burdell has sustained no loss and
but little Inconvenience. The loss Of Mr..
Hayden cannot be great. This is the most
extensive and destructive fire that has oc-
Cured in that Institution since l847, un-
der Col. Dewey, when the Saddle Tree
shop of Mr.. ~HaydenGwas burned-des-
troying about the same amount of build
ings and more property.
On Saturday a convict in the shoeshop.
who is in for life. for murder, was punish
ed. and as he is a bad-tempered man.
suspicion rests strongly on him. When
the cry OF FIRE was given, he asked where
it was. and when told "the north build
ings." he said "good. good"-but when
asked by the night-watch what he said
turned it off by saying he was every sor-
ry."
Unfortunately and most singularly. not
only the Prison Engine was out of order.
though kept in the bes. repair, but two or
three OF the city Engines, when they first
arrived. could not be worked, and one
was broken during its operation. Under
all the circumstances, it seems almost mi
raculous that any thing was saved. Blu,
when the Engines got to work, the Fire
Companies did noble and heroic execu,
ton. and about 100 convicts, which the
Warden had selected and turned out. work.

Serious ARRAY.

A very serious ARRAY occurred last week
about seven miles west Of this place. at q
German ball. We cannot give particu-
lars. but learn that a difficulty occurreds
between a German named Krisman anda
a young man by the name Of Davidson,
son Of Mr.. Simon Davidson, Of Seneca.
township. Insthe fight which took place
between them. Davidson was severely
stabbed, several times, about the neck. and
shoulders. Some three orfour arrests were
made. but all were discharged by the mag
istrate except a young German by the
name Of Miller, from Wheelings who hads
been engaged at work on the Catholic
Church, near Miltonsburgh. He is now
in Jail. Oh the evidence against him, We.
shall say nothing. as the matter will under.
60 judicial investigation.
Davidson is still living. but We learn IL
in a critical situation. He may recover.
One Of his wounds is said to have been
probed. by the attending physiciany 10 tho
depth Of eight inches.

office, as soon as practicable, for the use
OF this body, border maps of their respec.
tive counties, exhibiting the different par
cells or tracts of land on said county lines
with the proprietors names, together with
the value per acre. as assessed by the dis.
trict assessors, and equalized by the Coun.

a discussion here arose as TO the best
mode of rating the valuation of property

pating. The gentleman from Wayne made
