CAPTURE OF DUNN-Our readers remember how
the convict Dunn escaped from the prison at Sing
Sing, with the aid Of the India Rubber tube, &C.
How the squad of officers of the prison hunted for
him and drained all the liquor bottles in the neigh
borhood in their search-how, to frighten those who
might contemplate escape, they pretended that
Dunn had been shot, and went through the cere-
mony of burying him in the prison yard-how the
people near Sing Sing demanded that the grave
should be opened and an inquest held on the body;
for the Coroner was not to be cheated out of his
fee and how there was nothing in the grave but an
empty coffin Well poor Dunn has been captured.
He sought his home in New York city, where he
was discovered Friday night. The police broke
open the door, he jumped out sf the window, but
was caught after short race. So his India Rub
Der apparatus has given him but temporary release
from confinement

FAMILY Row.-James Marshall was baul.

ed up on charge of beating the wife of John PuIlin
with brickbat the head and threatening to whip
Mr.. Pullin himself. 1t appeared that Marshall had
gone to Pullins house in order to ayenge some insult
given by the latter to Marshalrs mother, whose
name was also in the warrant the lesser charge of
annoyance, &c. The complainant and defendant are
brothersin-law; ard of course there could be no
peace, so long the mother-iu-law was within hail
ing distance. Mrs Marshall resided for some time
with her sonin-law Pullin aud in consequences of her
annoying the family of her son, the chief defendant
here, had been turned away Hence the misunder-
standing and the warrant. TWAS proven that the old
lady occasionally took few juleps, which did not
t.riay aid in sweetening her temper. Marshall was
required to give bail in $500 to keep the peace for
twelve months and in like to appear before the
November term of the Hastings Court.

THE END OF THE WoRLD.-Our readers
will remember that we published a few days
since, a North Carolina prediction, by one
Jewett of Fayetteville, that the world would
get smashed into smithereens this morning,
by the comet We kept our columns open
until - o'clock last night, but found every
thing all safe. We examined large number
of paving stones along Main street, and all
seemed perfectly secure. The moon shone
out as usual, and the corporation gas ap-
watched for the advent of the comet, but
couldn't even get a glimpse of his tail. We
supposed that he would attack us somewhat
like an alligator, first with his tail, and then
with his teeth. But he has completely disap-
pointed the expectations of his most sanguine
admirers. We have several reporters in the
field, and if it should turn up that the delay
is caused by the breaking of crank or the
like, we hope to be able to tell all about the
catastrophe, before news reaches Fayette-
vile. This is queer century. Fanatics of
all sorts holding conventions North, the de-
struction of the earth by comet foretold at
the South, and an apocalyptic argument for
the ruin of the Turkish Empire, all in one
week We shall be obliged to send the
" schoolmaster abroad. But, culgus cuA
decipi, decspiatur We hate to NEEDLE with
peoples individual follies, having a few of
our own.

be, we suppose if the city authorities allowed the
concert and people went to it. he will not feel au-
thorised TO refuse the money. Indeed we question
whether the people of New York could spend their
loose change in better manner Sunday than
giving it to the New Orleans sufferers.
