A STRANGE FREAK.-A most singular affair,
and of quite grave nature, occurred about
noon on Sunday, the 18th inst, in Hanover
street, Baltimore. Just about the time that the
churches closed their exercises, and the streets
we're filled with people, a man appeared in the
street in question, bearing under his arm a cof
fin about four feet long. Heseemed to be labor
ing under q mania of some kind, probably from
the effects of excessive indulgence in strong
drink, and manifested d desire to find some place
where he could obtain a body for his coffin. "A
large crowd of boys gathered around him, and
by pointing first to one house and then another,
the residents were considerably annoyed by bis
inquiry for dead body. At last, becoming
tired of his burden he laid it upon cellar door,
until he should be able to find the object Of his
search. At this time 50 great crowd had gath
cred, that officer Vernun, who was passing at
the time, thought it prudent to take him to the
Watch house, and at least produce quiet, while
it would afford the coffin man an opportunity to
recover from his delirium. Surely the effects of
the fire-water is strange in its influence upon
the human mind.

arseley anal the wa.hington monument.

The hostility of the New York Tribune to the
construction Of the Washington Monument has
broken out afresh, having recently received
new impulse from having been deprecated in a
very earnest manner by one Of the friends Of the
enterprise. The editor says he has received q
letter imploring him to suspend his opposition
s.until the tall point of the obelisk is bathed in
Its native element and the job is, in fact,
finished This very sensible request the obsti-
nate Horace-for we believe it is he who replies,
4 It sounds like him -valiantly and most I'M
mercifully refuses to comply with, and forthwith
re-opens his batteries with tremendous effect
upon the unfortunate and devoted Monument
He pronounces the structure deformity, and
declares that when completed it will be an I'M
slightly object, 6 surprising and disagreeable to
every intelligent beholder." g Accordingly
saith the Great Incarnation of Isms, with form
Of expression which seems to imply belief that
his wish will be complied with, 'swe desire to
have the building stopped, the work pulled down
and the materials put to some more appropriate
use. And to what more appropriate use, Oh
sage Of lore not SO mysterious perhaps as that
of the magician and the exorcist, but darker
than that Of Egypt, would you apply these ma
terials Is anybody curious to know why,
to the building of grand Hall for the accom-,
mediation of Abolition conventions.
The Tribune does not publish the letter
alluded to, but answers some of its questions,
one Of which appears to have been that the
defects complained Of in the model would dis
appear in the larger development of the work /;
to which the reply is that if the model be ugly
and incongruous, the full grown Monument will
be transcendently SO, and that SO far from its
magnitude hiding its fruits it will but serve to
make them more apparent The Tribune in
g down on it, and so will not listen to any
exposition of the principles of perspective nor
entertain the preposterous idea that g distance
lends enchantmont," ETC., as it certainly did in
the case Of the huge and seemingly shapeless
statue Of old, which became reduced to the most
exquisite proportions when elevated to its lofty
pedestal ON the temple. Horace wisely states
that giant with curved spine is only the
more q hunchback, and compares the Monument
to big stake punched through big pumpkin
Against this sort Of argument we are not
architect enough to defend the luckless Monu-
ment, and therefore will drop the subject,
merely stating that we are sufficiently ungen-
erous to believe, from much Of Horaces past
conduct, that the main causes of his hostility to
this enterprise are that the people of the South
have contributed largely to it's support. and
that slavery has not been abolished in the Dis
trict of Columbia.

PUBLICATION OF CRIMEs.-The Tribune, in an
editorial, discusses at length the policy of pub
fishing crimes and outrages in detail, in the
public journals, and concludes thus:
sc 1t is sheer falsehood to say that society is
made worse by the publication of the details of
crimes in the daily papers. 1t is made better.
Society abounds most in crime where newspapers
are wanting. The deed then is done in secret.
Crime is organized as an order. Witness the
Thugs Of India, where numbering is part Of
creed, and the head murderer invested with the
sacred dignity of a Pope or Bishop. Take the
bons bouchers of France, an order of Christian
murderers, as much fact as Napoleon. Be-
sides these combinations of villains, the private
crimes are boundless. Those of Borgia, a
Henry VIII, Louis XIV, but show the crimes
of society. The King reflects the People,"
The Post, on the same subject, says:
"It is urged that the publication of atrocious
crimes has an immoral tendency. The writer's
of the Bible--both of the Old Testament and of
the New--seem to have thought differently
We respectfully recommend to such persons as
are very captious about the publication of crimes
by newspaper, more careful and thorough
study of the Scriptures

SHOOTING AFFAIR. We learn from the Column
bia Is. C.) Times, that on the 18th inst. two
young men named James Wilson and Nathaniel
Glayland had adificulty while returning to that
city from camp meeting, when the latter
slapped the former in the face After reaching
town, Wilson armed himself with pistol, and
meeeing Clayland in grocery shot him in the
left side, inhicting a very dangerous wound
Wilson then mounted his horse and made his
escape. The Sheriff and others gave chase, but
he had not been arrested at last accounts.
