Keitt Daguerreoiypcd.

A Washington let,er-writer thus daguer-
reotypes Lawrence NJ. Keitt, of South Caro-.
lima, who made the rufianly assault upon Mr.
Grow, of Pennsylvania, in the House of
Representatives on Saturday morning, 9th
inst:
He is probably one of the vainest men in
the House ; lie keeps his seat but few mo-
ments at time, and is as full of antics and
grimaces as any monkey in the London Zoo
logical Gardens. Is there pretty lady in
the gallery? Be sure that Mr. Keitt is look
ing at her, and pleasantly stroking his whs-
kers. Wait few moments, and if he knows
her, you will see him at her side. When
taking his daily exercise on the floor he has
a gate peculiarly his own--likc that of
spawned mare. He throws up his chin,
brings heavy seowl upon his face and COW
ers the open space in front of the Speakers
chair. I his is the member who represents
the fire-eaters in the House-the disunion-
lists par excellence.

"OLD VIRGINNY NEBER TIRE."-If the
scene of the following item, which we cut
from the Wheeling Iateuigencer. was located
anywhere save in Virginia, we should doubt
its truth. AS it is we credit the tale fully.
The LntelLyencer says:
We saw yesterday, going up toward the
upper ferry, team of four animals-a horse,
pony, a mule and bull. The horse had
the heaves, the pony was blind, the mule was
lame, and the bull had no provision for fly
time. In the wagon, which was an ordinary
one, there sat a white man, a crippled nigger,
and tame skunk fraily bound with a wisp
of straw The white man held the lines the
team held its own, ard the nigeer held the
skunk, and they all moved forward. To
make this worthy its place, it is essential to
say that it is true.

A Curious Poisoning Csse.

THERE is very curious poisoning case be-
fore the Police Court Of Philadelphia. Ro-
bert P. kirkpatrick is charged with conspi-
racy and an attempt to poison, not only his
brother, Edwin kirkpatrick, but his entire
family. 1t is charged that some months ago
Robert P. kirkpatrick deliberately matured
plan to murder his brother, aid in order to
avert suspicion from himself, so managed
matters, ty means Of anonymous letters and
daguerreotypes, as to convey the idea that he
was poisoned by female avenger of her own
wrongs, and had by her been poisoned In
such case, upon the demise of their father,
Robert would become heir to large share of
the entire estate, amounting to considerable
sum. The evidence pretty fully establishes
the fact that the menaclng epistle which ac.
companied the daguerreotype of the young
woman, sent to Mrs. Edwin Kirk, atrick, was
partly, if not entirely, written by Robert,
while the latter had been frequently heard to
utter threats against his brother, The case
has produced an immense excitement in
Philadelphia, and the court room is thronged
with spectators, both male and female.

The trial of Jacob Stats, on the charge
of violating the Sunday Law, inselling lager
beer, was finally concluded n Kings Co.
Court, on Friday and the beer drinkers wont
the day. The District Attorney brought
forth witnesses to show that lager beer was
an Intoxicating drink, and as much, came
within the provisions of the act which pro-
hibits the sale of intoxicating liquors on Sun
day. The statements of some of the witness
ses for the defence were desi ynated as extrav-
agant by the District Attorney, and unwor-
thy of belief. On the part of the defence, it
was contended in the summing up, that the
law made no distinction between intoxicating
drinks, and light beverages that the law did
not comprehend lager beer but strong beer
and alcoholic liquors. That the people were
bound to male out as general rule that la
ger beer was an intoxicating drink, and they
had utterly failed in so doing. They had SIM
ply proved an exception to the rule. and that
of very slight character, and by very few
witnesses. That the defence had shown by
overwhelming testimony that this beverage
did not produce intoyication effects, as w,s
the case with ale .olic drinks. The Judge
(Strong) in his charge reviewed the evidence
at some length. and the Jury retired about
II o'clock.
They remained in session until ,5k O'clock
wien they returned into court with the fol-
lowing verdict, "That they" the jury, '.find
for the defendants, believing that Lager Beer,
which does not contain more than 81 per.
cent. alchol, does not come within the pro-
visions of the statute in relation to intoyica-
ting drinks" 1t will thus be seen that lager
beer is not an intoxicating drink taking the
finding Of the jury as correct. People there
fore can drink as much as they please, and la.
ger beer gardens will be more crowded than
ever-.N Y. Express, Feb. 9Th.

The Game of Fraud played out In

The Herald of Freedom of tine 10th inst,
after referring to the finding of the election
returns under Regent Calhoun's wood-plle,
remarks.
The Pro-Slavery party concede that the
game is played out" and the leaders are now
packing up, preparatory to leaving. Some of
them have already sought security in flight ;
to return, they are fully concious is to ensure
their immediate death. The people are
aroused, and are ready to sweep into eternity,
at any moment, every person connected with
these fraudulent movements to rob the peo-
pie of their liaberties, John Calhoun, the
President of the Lecompton Swndle Conven-

will insure him vengeance from the people
but lie will not return. He reads his doom
in the countenence of every honest man he
meets! With the mark of Cain on his brow,
he will Continue a wanderer and outcast
while life lasts.
