effect: That MuleDs had injured the girl Margaret
Leigh, and after repeated promises to marry her bad
failed 10 do 40. That Mullens had come to his house
on Saturday night, and he invited him into the back
room and told him that he must marry the GIRL
That Mullens Immediately made at him and struck
him a blow, which enrag.d him very much, and in
the reckless and careless use Of the pistol it was un.
desiguedly discharged. He protests that he had no
idea of killing the man. Ii is proper TO add here
that there ia a slight bruise on the prisoners fore.
head.
The body Of the deceased was sent to Washington
on Monday morning last. Upon examination it was
found that the ball had entered the chest on the left
side, between the junction of the first and second
ribs with the breast bone. 1t then passed rather
downw8rds and back penetrating the upper
part of the left lung, wounding various large blood
vessels, in the neighborhood OF the heart, and finally
imbedded Itself in the po.terior part of the spinal
column. to the right of the meridian line, near
junction of the sixth and seventh ribs with the cor
responding vertibre. having passed through the spi-
nal marrow in its course"
This morning, a large crowd assembled at the
Mayors office, TO witness the examination, but by
the advice of his couusel-Messrs Baldwin, Bell and
Niche Downey waved all proceedings before his
honor, and was remanded for a hearing before the
corporation court, on the 9th of January.
Mrs. Orchard was held TO bail IA q witness in $500,
Honihan in Sl.00O. Miss Leigh in $500 and McAlesr
in 81 QUO. The frat two gave security, and We're re-
leased, but Mics Leigh and McAlear were sent to
prison.
Ii may be we'll for me to mention one Of the rumor
afoat, which accounts for the shooting, to chow what
the public feeling row is Downey, though over
fifty years of age, is charged with being the seducer
and destroyer Of Miss Leigh, and it is urged that he
expected 10 compel Mullens to marry her, through
his influence over HIM "a spiritual confessor," and
thus hide bis own shame. Finding that Mullens could
not be driven TO such a course. he became eIasperated
and killed him on the spot.
The friends of Dowpey, in reply to this charge. say IT
is utterly false, and reason thus: Miss Leigh had only
been in his service eight weeks. If he had been her
destroyer. he would have known her situation, and
instead of taking to his own house, would have sent
her of, and thus held his own secret. a man of his
sense would not have trapped himself by pur'uing
the course he did.
As there were but the two persons in the chamber
at the time OF the sh~ootiug-Dowuey aud Mullens-

Whatever the result may be. he can no longer hold

How Rich we Are.

French science has just discovered
that salt water contains silver, and
that there are two million tons of that
precious metal hid in solution by the
waters of the sea. No wonder that
the public have long given the name Of
silver sand to that which is brought us
from the ocean shore; but. how would
it do, If, instead of boiling down the
water, we should put the sand itself
into the crucible, and SO extract con
ISOLATION and cash from what we now
box up simply to spit upon, or spread
out merely to tramble under foot? Salt
water is abundant enough in this vi
cinity. We ought to be rich peo-
pie, therefore. Indeed, States like
New Jersey may pride themselve upon
their pearls; but, if French philoso>
ply is right, we are surrounded by
molten silver. In fact, New York,
without being at all aware of her en-
bellishing position, has been, for many
yea $, beautiful broach upon the bos-
ON OF Nature, with a gorgeous silver
setting, finished in perfect style of
liquid beauty by the artifcer of the
