RETAILING PoIsoNs.-The last number of the Ned

MILITARY TRIP TO EURoPE.-It has been announced
that the Seventy-First regiment, Col Vosburgh in
tend making trip to Europe some time during the
coming fall. The report, however, is premature;
cussed the propriety of paying visit to the French
capital, the matter has not been definitely settled
1t It is now reported that committee consisting of
Lieut.. Mccormick Col Hepburn and private Coul-
ter, of the City Grenadiers, company II, Second
regiment departed in the steamer last week for Eu-
rope, to make arrangements for the visit of that
corps to Scotland, from which country most of the
members hail. 1t is said the money is subscribed,
and that the committees report will decide the
matter. trip to Europe is not such formidable
matter after all, and no doubt but that, before long,
some of our city companies will undertake it. 1t
would add immensely to the eedt of the corps that
would perform the feat. A company or regiment
OF our New York uniformed militia in London or
Paris would be one of the events of the age, and
would create great excitement. Last year the
members of the Columbian Engine Company, No
IA, seriously determined to visit the Old World du-
ring the present summer. The members even went
so far as to hire instructors in French but the re-
vulsion of last fall left the 'Columbians" so beret
OF cash that the European trip had to be abandoned
for a time 1t may take place, however, within
year or two.-N. Y. HERALD

YANKEES FOR CENTRAL AMERIcA.-Eli
Thayer's scheme of emigration to Nicars-
qua is not likely to be entirely dreamy
speculation. The Nicaraguan minister at
Washington approves the enterprise, and
Erastus Corning of Albany consents to act
as president of the proposed emigration
company, under the auspices of which sew
eral thousand applications have already
been made for emigration. 1t is poposed
to test whether the high lands of Central
America can be cultivated by free white
labor, whether sugar, cocoa, and coffee, can
be profitable produced within the trop-
les by white men. If they can be the
problem of the Americanization of the great
region between Mexico and Darien may be
considered solved.

THE TRICKS OF LAw.-At the recent
term of the circuit court of Tazewell, Tenn.
fellow was arranged for stealing a raw
hide. He alleged that he had purchased
it from a negro. Thereupon the accused
introduced two witnesses to prove that he
had stolen the hide, when he was of course
discharged; and having already been tried
for stealing, he could not be tried second
time for the same offense, and was thus
turned loose unpunished. Such is the per-
fectiou of human wisdom.

Shocking Affafr..Hyena In the
4&E III Woods.

A distressing tragedy occurred this week
in the western part of this State. Gan
nung's Menagerie is wintering two miles
west of Paulding, Paulding eounty.-
Among the other animals was Hyena,
said to be the largest in the United States.
The animal was very ferocious, and had
twice bitten his keeper. Early Wednesday
morning last, the Hyena escaped. Search
was instantly made, and later in the morn
ing he was discovered in the grave yard,
ha ,ing dug, up and partly devoured two or
three dead bodies. Several of the citizens
rushed in to take it, when it turned on its
assailants, striking down German day
laborer named Jacob Pofenberg, and crush
ed the head of the unfortunate man in its
jaws, killing him instantly. The brute
then made its escape, after tearing the
flesh from the right arm and chest of a lad,
who is not expected to recover. The ami
NAL succeeded in making good its escape.
The citizens are much excited. Parties are
the woods, and the menagerie men
have been notified by some of the citizens
to remove their establishment at once.

LARGE YIELD OF CcRN IN ISp1ASa.

LARGE YIELD OF Corn IN INpIANA.-
Lewis Ellis, of Harrison township, Fayette
Co., Ind, raised 3s7 bushels of corn on
three acres of ground, last year, being l29
bushels TO the acre. Mr.. Ellis is one OF
several farmers WHO desired to get the sill
yer cup offered by the Indiana Agricultur
al Society, last year for the best three acres
of corn, but the cup was not awarded to
any one, as none of the competitors report
ed to the society before the 25th of De-
cember last, the cold weather preventing
them gathering and measuring their corn
in time. Mr.. Ellis says he would like to
see reports from other competitors.

The Moniteur-o official French paper

Neither the Emperor or the Empress

The Emperor and Empress, on entering

went on as usual. aA &
Their majesties left the opera at midnight.
The Boulevards were spontaneously illumiu-
ated, and vast concourse of people cheer

enthusiastically and touchingly, as they
passed on their way to the Tuilleries. On
arriving there their majesties found great
number cf persons, amongst them the am
bassador of England, the President of the
Senate, members of the diplomatic body,
and several senators, waiting to offer their
congratulations.

Further About the Attempted
Assassination of the French
Emperor.

The last arrival adds to the facts in the
case of the attempt to kill Napoleon III.
The Paris correspondent of the London
Herald telegraphs on tho 10th: "As the
Imperial carriage drove up to the main en-
trance of the theatre, and as one of the
footmen was in the act of opening the door,
three percussion shells filled with fulmina-
ting powder, were flung from the top of
one Of the houses opposite among the cor
tege, and exploded on reaching the ground.
The first fell just in front of the carriage,
its fragments killing one horse, wounding
the footman, and piercing the hat of the
Emperor about an inch above his head
The other shells burst among the crowd
and escort. An eyewitness says there
was interval of few seconds between the
second and third explosions. The Empe-
ror had alighted; he then carried the EN-
press in his arms to the steps of the Ope-
ra-House, but scarcely had he done so when
third shell burs. under the carriage, and
shattered it 10 pieces. The houses oppo-
site were Immediately taken possession of
by the police, and in one several Italians
were arrested, one having a loaded revolver
The shells must have been large, contain
ing great quantity of gunpowder, as the
report brake all the windows on opposite
side of the street. 1t is supposed the at
tempt was believed certain of success, for
the death of the Emperor was a current
report at Bourse, the cry of "Vive = En-
pereur" was universal. Two hundred
persons have been taken, and arrests con-
tinue; even some of the police have been
arrested. The Indignation against the as
sassins is increased, because they must
have known that the Empress and other
ladies would be present. The explosions
were heard at quarter of a mile, and
placed the immediate spot in darkness for
a short time. The Emperor's hat was
torn into two parts. The collar of the cloak
he wore, and that part which covered his
shoulder was rent open"
"The gas-pipes running along the facade
Of the Opera House, were blown off bv the
explosion of the projectiles, and for time
the street was in darkness.
Four projectiles were flung under the
carriage but one did not explode. Is was
intended that twenty should be used.
