ASSASSINATION OF THE DUKE oFpaRM,

ASSASSINATION OF THE DUKE OFPARMA
Among the most important items of
news brought by the late arrivals from
Europe, is the announcement of the as
Sasination of the Duke of Parma.
The Duke was attacked in the street,
on Sunday evening. March 9th, at half
past five O'Clock. The assassin having
plunged knife into his abdomen, wound
ing, it is supposed, the stomach, fed and
escaped, and yet remains undetected.
The Duke died on the afternoon of the
next day.
Ferdinand, Charles iii, Joseph Maria
Wilma BathaSar de Bourbon, Duke of
Parma, Placentia, &C., Infant of Spain,
was the long name and title of the de-
funct prince. He was born on the l4th
January, 1923, and was, consequently,
thirty-one years of age at his death. He
succeeded bis father upon his abdication
in lS49, in the Duchy of Parma. He
was connected by marriage with the
French Bourbons. Bis wife was the
daughter of the Duke de Berry, who was
assassinated at the opera in Paris, and
accordingly sister to the Duke de Cham
bord, called by the French legitimists
Henry v, of France. The Duke leaves
four children, the second of whom, his
Robert Charles, &C., who is only six years
old, succeeds him. During his minority,
his mother will be regent.
Baron Ward, who was the prime minis
ter and favorite cf the late Duke, has
been ordered to quit the country. This
man is an English adventurer, and his
history is full of strange contrasts and
alternating fortunes. He was originally
common groom, and was -prom0ted BY
cabinet.

As GOOD As IF TRUE.
, Some one writing from Washington

ooine one WriliHS Iroln washington 10
a Western journal, gives the following:
MY attention was called to an old gen.
tleman, an office holder here, on the street
to-day, of whom there is a story told,
SO amusing that l cannot refrain from
giving it to the readers of the Tribune
Major W., some twenty years ago,
lived in North Carolina, and was the only
man in his section of country who could
read. The Major t. ok a newspaper-the
only one sent to that part of North Caro-
lima at that time-and his neighbors for
many miles around would gather at bis
blacksmith shop every Sunday morning
to hear him read the paper, and thus keep
posted up concerning the news. What
ever the Major read was received with a
confident faith in its truth, very unlike
what is entertained by readers of news
papers nowadays. 1t happened, one
morning, that he got his papers mixed
he had carefully preserved all that he had
ever received-and instead Of getting the
latest, picked up one printed twenty
years before. When his neighbors aS-
sembled, the Major read this, in which
was statement that the British, under
Gen. Ross, had burnt Washington and
were marching upon Baltimore and
also proclamations calling the people to
arms to repel the invaders. 1t created
the widest excitement, and Immediately
a company of fifty rihemen was formed,
with the Major at their mead, who forth
with marched fer Washington. Their
astonishment, on learning that they had
been humbugged, may well be conceived.
Major w. was deeply chagrined, and
never went back to North Carolina, and
Gen. jackson was so pleased with which
he responded to what seemed bis couu-
try's call, that he gave him good office,
which he has held ever since. 1t is also
said that the North Carolina volunteers
never again had anything to do with
newspapers, and the Major did not divulge
to them the real facts Of the case.
ENGAGEMENT WITH PIRATE FLEET
From East Indies we learn that the
United States storeship Lexington had
fred on feet of pirates in the Archi-
pelago, and that the vessels immediately
made off to windward. The account given
is as follows:
On the 25th November the American
war transport ship Lexington, j. J.
FlesSon, commander, arrived in the
roads of Menado. This vessel, coming
from New York and bound to China, had
provisions on board for the North Ameri-
can squadron in the Cbina-Japan waters,
besides presents from the government Of
the United States for the Emperor of
Japan, amongst which was locomotive
and other railway necessities. At about
two hundred miles distant from Menado
the Lexington fell in with strong pirate
feet. The invitation to show a flag re-
naming unanswered, this request was
repeated in the shape of two shots being
fired at them, upon which the pirates, by
dint of rowing right against the wind
disappeared. Alter taking in some pro-
visions, water and wood, this vessel
sailed on the night of tie 26th from the
roads of Menado, and steered for Macao.

DEAR SIR: 1t Is with q sense of gratitude, and a
desire that others suffering from disease may be in

rheumatism, from the effects of which my heal h

lost 70 or 80 pounds of my usual weight. Anxious
to find some relief resorted to the most approved
patent medicines. I used number of bottles of
Townsend's Sarsaparila, and exhausted the list of
uniments without any effect. My joints now be-
came enlarged and the pains in my limbs so excru-
ciating, that they had to be rubbed two or three
times night. The muscles ofmy legs were 30 con-
tracted that presented the appearance of man of

through curiosity than belief in its good effects,

this purpose he planted by the side OF

made similar experiment with the maize
OF Tusavora, the gram OF which is as
white as Carolina rice, and be thus obtain

inches in length. and the grains OF blue
color. Another time he planted some
maize of the color OF ambea, among some
of the black maize OF Syria. The ears
attained the length Of % inches, and the
grain was of different colors. The vel.
low maize on being Central America
produced some of a dark brown color
which ripens eight days sooner than the
other sorts. This farmer now possesses
one hundred and fi(ty-,hree different
varieties of maize, and his object in con.

4 Singular Case.

The Brattleboro' Eagle has an account of an
interesting criminal case, which has Just beer
settled in Orleans county, Vermont. Seven OF
eight years since, : woman named HANNAH
Parker was arrested, tried and found guilty a
the murder Of her infant. The proof Of hel
guilt was exclusive, but upon her trial some ex.
eeptions were reserved for the consideration oil
he Supreme Court, and she was remanded 70
Jail TO await their action. Ia he Supreme Coar
the case vas continued from term to term TO,
six OF seven years, she in the meanwhile max
ne the jail her head quarters, but having very
wide range Of the jail yard. The Supreme
Court, al the last session, reversed the former
jugement, and she was again brough. up fol
trial The same witnesses were called at thi.
trial as the former, bnt, singular TO relate, n,
feels had faded entirely from their memories
Even the witness to whom her confession wa,
made was unable to testify poytttreiy that she
admitted her guilt Of course, a reasonable
doubt was raised in the minds OF the jury, and
she was acquitted.
