A SAD TERMINATloN. An ARRAY occurred
ia BastroP, Texas, on the 7lh October, between
two young men named Butler and Gocher.-
They had been sleeping together. Gocher
rose first, and pulled the cover off of Butler.
This led TO playful scuffle, in which, finally,
both got angry. Butler seized pistol by 'ne
handle, and struck Gocher several times across
the face with the barrel then grasPlng the
weapon by the muzzle, he dealt GOchef Sc
we're blow on the head. The hammer struck
him on the forehead, fracturing the skull, and
the coOcussion discharged the pistol, the ball
of which entered Buffers left breast, killing
him Instantly. Gocher was severely, though
not dangerously wounded.

UA revolutionary soldier, aged 1O4 years
was in Cincinnati on the 1th ult, from visit
to his friends out west, and was on his return
home in Richmond, Va. He is said to be re-
marksbly active, and has never been sick but
once in his life. The Cincinnati Times says
that during the revolution he fought in all the
principal battles in North and South Carolina.
He lost an eye at the battle of the Cowpens,
under General Morgan, and received two
wounds at the battle of Brandywine, under
Washington and Lafayette. He was at the
battle of Trenton and Princeton, where the
brave Col Mercer was shot. He saw General
Warren fall at Bunker Hill, while cheering on
his men to victory; and, to sum up, he fought
in sixteen battles in New York and Vermont,
under Generals Gates and Arnold.

'Sno1o Hundred Fee. Deep!-The St. Louis
Intelligencer publishes letter from an over
land emigrant to California, which gives fear-
full account of a tremendous snow storm in the
mountans near Carson valley. On what is
called the Second Summit, the writer says, he
caught hold of the tops of pine trees, and was
confident they were one hundred feet in height.
This is an item that should have bearing up
on the question of railroad to the Pacific,
through the South Pass. Rails buried in snow
a hundred feet deep would stand little chance
of removal by any scraper yet invented.

h Consumption--TWoor Or three years ago, says
the Scientific American, experiments were made
by members of the London Faculty of Physi-
clans in different hospitals for the cure of dis
eases of the lungs, bybreathing in warm medi.
Gated vapors. The success of the experiments
were so gratifying, that an institution, Bromp-
ton Hospital, for the cure of Bronchitis and
consumption, was Immediately established and
favorable has been the result of the treatment,
that the number of patients admitted during
the past year is between two and three thou
sand, and the hospital report shows that full
seventy-fve in every hundred have been COM
pletely cured. s

Printers and IVritcrs-J. r. Buckingham, il
his" "Reminiscences" in course Of publication
in the Boston Courier, speaks ofthe Importance
of printers to authors, as follows:
| "Many who condescend to illuminate the dark
world with the fire Of their genius, through the
columns of newspaper, little think of the lot
of the printer who, almost suffocated by the
| smoke of lamp, sits up till midnight to correct
their false grammar, bad orthography, and worse
punctuation. have seen the arguments oflaw-
yers in high repute as scholars sent to the prjn-
ter in their own handwriting, with many words,
and especially technical and foreign terms, abb
breviated, words mIs-spclled, and few Or no
points.
have seen the sermons of divines sent to
the printer without points or capitals to desig-
nate the division Of NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. which,
if published with the imperfectons Of the ma
nuscript, would disgrace the printers devil, if
he were the author. Suppose they had been
printed; the printer would have been treated
with scorn and contempt, as an iIliterate block
head-as a fellow better fitted TO be wood"
saver than professor of the art of printing.
Nobody would have believed that such gross
and palpable. faults were owing to the igno-
rance and carelessness ofthe author. And no.
body but the practical printer knows how many
hours the compositor, and after him the proof
reader, are compelled to spend in reducing to
readable condition, manuscripts that the au-
thor himself would be puzzled to read.
