HERR ALEXANDER IN TRouBLE-Hoyrible af-
"a" at CLINTON, W.-The Decatur Marion
county, Ill. Gazette, of the 18th inst, has the
following paragraph;
Inc humbug career of the miserable imposter
calling himself Herr Alexander, met with n
most terrible check at Clinton, Dewitt conntv
last week Had the parties been reversed and
he the victim, We should have considered il but
small loss Now, however, in all probability,
the HE OF worthy citizen becomes a sacrifice
10 the IDLE carelsssness OF the worthless scayen
ger scamp who lately figured in our town The
facts are, We learn. briefly these In nlav;no
on the hocus pocus Of the magic pistol. it proved
to be loaded with balls, and the Young man.
George Smith, who was to stand up and catch
fictitious ball in his mouth, received the con-
tents OF the loaded pistol in his left side, and
from from the character Of the wound and season of
the year. the probability is that it will termi.
nate his life, leaving widowed mother, solely
dependent on him, inconsolable.

SPIRITUAL RAPPrNGs.-The following letter.
Will be read with some interest, not only he.
cause the subject has attracted considerable ar.
tentlod, but on account of the standing and
reputation Of the author:
Let me acan tbs subject for one moment, and
present one simple view, which, it seems TO me,
comprise the whole in a nut she'll 1t is the be-
let OF all christian denominations at the present
DAY, that departed spirits revisit the earth, that
they attend us, that TINY impress us TO 90 or
not TO go, to do or not to 10, for our good Every
ones experience will satisfy him of the truth Of
this remark. What then follows? If spirits
visit us, attend us, and impress VS. for good.
what is the objection to believing that mode is
now discovered by which. they can communicate
with US There can be no possible objection
provided that the facts justify that belief If
the one is for our good, the other is still more for
our good. If the facts justify it, the conclusion
is both reasonable and philosophical Do the
facts justify it ! undertake to say they do
| undertake TO say, too, that no intelligent mind
that investigates with sincere desire to ascer
tain the truth, and has the opportunity so to
DO, can come to any other conclusion What,
then, Is the result of all this mighty outcry, as
i heaven and earth were coming together
Why, simply that it has been ascertained that
spirits can communicate with us, in addition TO
impressing US This is the whole length and
breadth of it. d" 1t hath this extent, no more

ANOTHER SAN PATCu The Nashville Gazette
of the 18th inst. contains an account of ter
rible leap from the bridge across the Cumber-
land. 1t says:
According to announcement, Mr. Watkins
positively did make his leap from the Suspension
Bridge yesterday evening. about half-past five
o'clock. Mounting upon the wire cables he
waved his hat to the crowd below, and spranq
out into the air His descent at the beginning
was very fair, but just before reaching the
water he seemed TO lose his perpendicular, fall
ing too much on his back In a short while he
rose to the surface in seemingly exhausted
condition. He was Immediately assisted into a
canoe and carried to the upper wharf
Beng unable to walk, he was placed upon a
settee and borne on the shoulders of his friends
to his boarding house The extent of his in
Jurles We have not positively ascertained. but
they are doubtless seyere--a warning to all
those whose 'yaulting ambition oyerleaps
itself. The distance from the bridge to the
water is estimated at about one hundred and
twenty feet

man belonging TO H. France, of Heath's Creek,
Pcttis county, Ky, who murdered the wife Of
John Rains, living in the same neighborhood,
tcas burned at the stake in or near Georgetown

ing this murder, SO far as we can learn were as
follows:
The negro man, aged about nineteen or TWEEN
ty, visited Mr. Rains house on Sunday morning
the 3d Of July, while Rains was absent at meet
ing, for the diabolical purpose, according to his
confession, of committing n rape upon the person
Of Mrs. Rains The consequence was that this
lady, within a few weeks of a confinement was
brutally murdered with club The negro at.
tempted to kill her oldest boy, and fancied he
had killed him, fearing, as he said that he would
tell on him; and two younger children were
sadly bruised, and thrown in a fence corner
because, as the negro said, they annoyed him
by crying about their mother
When Rains returned home he found his wife
dead, and his oldest boy so badly bruised that
il was thought he could not recover; but he
told his father who it was had COM
mitted the outrage. This demon in human
shape was Immediately apprehended for trial
but the citizens took possession of him to burn
him Immediately, and delayed the execution
only to ascertain the motives for such villain.
GUS outrage
The negro at first said, as we understand, that
1T was not him who committed the murder but
his brother and next admitting his guilt, said Ire
was instigated to the act by lis young master
Ills young master was Immediately taken into
custody, but was released, because the negro
exculpated him of the charge, admitting that it
grew out of his intention to commit a rape
The only excuse which can be offered for the
awful retribution of burning the negro is the
nature of the offence, and the frequent attempts
OF late years oil negroes to rape white women-
several instances Of which have occurred in this
country-and the impression among the commu-
nifty that it required such au example to protect
them from the repetition Of similar outrages.
The negros crime was horrid indeed; but his
punishment will be regarded by many as crael,
if not barbarous
Had it been white man instead Of a negro,
there is no doubt but what hewould have shared
a similar fate. [Boonyille Observer.
