and ice, can destroy fever, we have had plenty and
to spare. Sunday was the first moderately warm day
we have had in ten and even that was succeeded by
cold and clustering winds, and the dark and stormy
skies Of November The thermometer last evening at
O'Clock marked "A degrees
We append the Sections report for the past week.
There but six deaths in the city and hospitals
OF which three were from yellow fever
About fortnight ago. in Pike county, kind Of
murderous charivari was gotten up at the residence
Of James Riley A party of young men surrounded
his house at night and fired several rounds upon its
inmates. The only person injured was Mr. Riley, who
was shot in the neck and mouth and very severely
wounded The assaants escaped arrest, but among
them identified one of Mrs, Rileys own sons by
her first husband and several of the relatives of her
second. Mr.. Riley was her third, we presume.

EXTRAORDINARY SAGAorrY OF a NEWFOUNDLAND
DoG.-A large Newfoundland dog, that may be seen

being asked where it was, he looked very guilty and
