QUEER LOVE MAKING.-I -IncnTigibly Lorecracked.
perseveringly unhappy man is Samuel D. Kinney,
who has persisted for years in pressing his love and
attentions upon young lady in Charestown. By her
male friends he has been slapped in the face, kicked
and whipped, for following and speaking to her
in the street and in omnibuses, and he has also been
arrested for similar conduct, but up to Tuesday
allowed to go unwhipt of Justice, upon giving his
word and honor that he would forthwith and forever
cease to annoy the lady. On Wednesday forenoon,
however, seeing the lady in Washington street, he
could not resist the temptation to gain her again.
He walked in front of her and around her. addressing
to her language which she did not understand part
of the time, nterminged with comments about her
dress, and finally wound up his absurd or insane con-
duct by blowing in her face, as an expression of deri
sion. He was thereupon taken charge Of by the
police, and brought up for examination on a com
plant containing four counts for technal assaults,
viz: interceptng the ladies' in the street, and blowing
at the one who has so steadasty resisted his addresses
for about five years. He sentenced to pay fine
of $3O and to give bonds in 5000 to keep the peace
six months. [Boston Courier

Natchez Courier of Tuesday Iast saw

The Natchez Courier of Tuesday last says:
For the past two Or three days we have had a sue
cession OF stormy, gusty weather Friday night,
Saturday morning and again at noon, our city was
visited by heavy rains, accompanied by sudden and
high Winds and vivid and sharp lightning. More
than once there was every appearance of tornado
on small scale but they passed off without sarous
damage.
Yesterday morning there was very singular
change. At noon the thermometer had fallen to so
degrees and the day all the marks of an angry
March Storm Cloaks and overcoats out of doors and
blazing fires in the house were found absolutely ne
cessary for comfort.
The Vicksburg Wing of the same day says:
Yesterday morning came upon us with an eager
aud npping air. The wind was fierce and as un-
like the merry month Of May as could well be
coats at premium.
The Vicksburg Times of the 18th relates the follow
ing curious circumstance:
The family of Mr.. Bats, residing the eastern
terminus Of Clay street, were alarmed, few nights
since, by the smashing of the windows of the house
by bricks from some invisible hand. From s o'clock
at night until the dawn of the following day, tho
missiles continued to be hurled, leaving scarcely
| window in the house unbroken. Although there were
several persons present using every exetion to asger
tain the perpetutor of this vainy, discovery
made and no sooner had those who had been watch
lug during the night RETIRED than the work cf de-
struction again commenced. Determined seascer-
tain. if possible, the guilty party. member Of the
family secreted herself beneath some shrubberx where
she commanded view Of the premises. She had
scarcely taken her stand when she n2.tro girl,
hired by Mr.. Webb, who occupies the loTsa portion

caused the destruction of thee House. sttthily step
from the kitchen door, huTl brick into window,
and hurry back to the kitchen.
It was ascertained after her arrest Aat she had
fired her masters house three times.
The Bayou Sara Constitutonalst,, of Wednesday
| last, says:
On Saturday night last, our parb,h was visited by
tremendous Storm several houses in town were con,
sideraby damaged, and many trees were blown down.
The steamer Falls City passed bere on Sunday morn
ing with chimneys blown Off and otherwise injured.
The weather all day Sunday was quite chilly, and
Monday evening and Tuesday morning fire was
quite comfortable.

STEREosCoPIC PoRTRAITs--M Lugeal, in making

idea Of taking the two images proofs after the
other, and making his friend look each time upon
different object. Thus, during the first sitting, he
looked at the glass of the obscura and during
the second to the right at object fixed nearly at
angle of forty.ive degrees. These two images being
placed in the stereoscope let the observer stand op

DEAD LoCK.-The police force of New York
city was in fine fix at last accounts, there appearing
prospect of a reconciliation between the authori
ties elected by the people and those appointed by the
Legislature. The following from the Times would
seem to indicate that the conflict of the two parties
endangers the public peace:
The Metropolitan Police Commissioners sent an
order to Mr.. Tallmadge, the newly;apponted Super
intendent for five men to go to Staten Island and
protect the house of the Health Officer, who feared
violence, the Superintendent called on his Deputy
Mr.. Matse, for the men, but Mr.. Matse said that he
could not recognize the new authorities.
Thirteen members of the board of Aldermen pre-
sented protest, in their own Board last evening,
against the acts of the late Legislature. 1t was
adopted by vote of IL to 5-a party vote.
