CROSBY, Nichols s. Co.-The leading article
of the October number of this excellent Law

Self Education, recommended by some law
ycrs of the last two centuries. Besides this,
the number contains notices of Court dcci-

COLLEGE TRoUBLEs.-In old times it used
TO be the way that the members of the lower
classes in College, especially the Freshmen,
should pay great Difference to their fellow
students OF more advanced standing, as well
as to the officers Something like the Eng
fish system of tagging existed. That, how
ever long ago passed away, and for a time
there was only the natural respect-in most
eases very considerable and decidedly saluta
(which IA fresh boy feels for one who has
spent two or three years or more at college.
Lately, however, a different spirit has inva-
ded several Colleges, resulting in abuses vi
the most shamefully outrageous kind.
That practical jokes should occasionally be
played off upon raw or conceted recruit,
by boys at College, is to be expected, what
ever may be thought of the tastes OF such as
indulge in them. But when 1t comes to an
invasion OF the rights of domicil and To
personal yiolence,-to acts which no one
feels himself safe in attempting except in dis
guise-the case is different Every one feels
that self-deience, without limit, is the right
OF the outraged party in such cases, and that
il blood is shed, the guilt of it is upon the
aggressors.
This year, serious difficulties OF this ma
ture at Providence and Amherst, are report
ed in the newspapers. The hd:ng OF Fresh
men by Sophomore, has been carried to
such an extent at Brown University, it is
said, that parents aud liehds have been CON
strained To SEND in strong rcnon,lr,uces Ia
the Faculty. Teachers have also con pl lined
and have htsitated To recommend their pu-
pills to enter the College on hi, account.
Matters came 10 such pas, that lnr Pres
ident felt 1t his duty to exact a prom Sc from
the present Sophomore class, that such out
RACES should not be repeated. Twenty-Five

SAD EvENT-GoRED TO DEATH BY BULL.
The Rev. Samuel c. Parker, of Hinckley
Medina county, met with terrible death on
Sunday morning, 10th inst. He was seen to
60 into field in which he kept bull, with
a pitchfork in his hand, for the purpose it is
supposed of driving the animal out. About
an hour after person called at his house to
invite him to preach funeral sermon, and
was directed by the family to the field where
they supposed Mr. Parker to be. On looking
for him he was found dead, the body tossed
over the fence several rods from where the
pitchtork was lying, The horns and head
Of the bull were bloody, and the blood and
marks on the ground indicated that the I'M
fortunate man was gored and pitched along
by the vicious animal from the place where
the pitchfork was dropped to the fence and
then tossed completely over it.
Mr.. Parker was Methodist minister, and
had small farm on which he resided. 4 wife
and three or four children are bereaved by
the affective dispensation. He was much es-
teemed by wide circle of friends and &C
quantancee, and large conoourse of people,
including the Masonic fraternity, attended
the funeral of the good man so suddenly and
so sadly removed from their midst. Clersiand

The MAN WHO GOT One VoTE.-In the re-
publican convention for the Lowell senatorial
district one vote was cast for Mr.. Buttrick
which several delegates, desiring to stand
well in his eyes, claim to have given, and
the controversy between them runs high with
threatened production of certificates, extra
judicial oaths and other evidence There
was similar case in Westfeld, some years
ago, the issue Of which may help to elucidate
the Lowell mystery. One of the hard headed
and lion-hearted democracy of that ambitious
town had thought for several years that it
was his turn to 60 to the legislature, and had
said as much, but had been put off from year
to year under varous.pretences and promises
of "next time" Finally, he claimed that
the "next time" should be now, and his
friends agreed that he should enter upon his
reward at the very next election. Caucus
with ballots to secure his nomination. The
voting closed, the hat was turned and counted
and our hero had,one vote! One by one his faith
full friends approached to consol him, and as
sure him other fidelity. Each claimedIt Ito have
proved true, to have cast the solitary vote,
and expressed sorrow and indignation at the
treason Of all the others. Our disappointed
aspirant received their assurances in proud
silence till some dozen had secretly told him
the same story; then, gathering them all
about him, he rehearsed the facts in strain
of lofty and pungent Anglo-Saxon for which
our types are untitled and our dashes too
scant, closing up with the declaration that
not one of them had told the truth, that
they were all pack of double D liars, for he
put the ote in himself The ancient con-
fdence among the Westfeld democrats has
never been restored to this day.-Springfeld

EXECUTIONS Ira Stout was hung at Roch-

He had attempted suicide twice since his SEN

was executed at Danvilc, Pa. for the MUIR

ofwhich the PHILADELPHIA Bulletin gives the
following particulars
"Mrs. Twiggs was convicted of the murder of
Mrs Catharinc Ann Clark, by poisoning her with

behind her her two orphan children.
She was much affected throughout. The solcm-

us The storm had passed away-all the
hazy vopors ofthe atmosphere had been con-
densed, and had fallen during the night
the air was transparent, and the eye seemed
to peer deep into the clear blue depths Of the
sky, which only here and there, for beauty,
showed a floating island of chased silver.
On the left lay Aquleja and Montefalcone,
and on the right Capo d. Is,ria, and in the
near distance lay that beautiful little city
Trieste, nesting at the foot of the hills in
the little bay formed by the promontories
that jut out into the sea-and all around lay
the various snug crafts of model, build, and
rig so different from our own and as we
neared the land, the details of the landscape,
we're re vealed-rock and tree and dell, fresh
ly-washed 'verdure, and spire and roof and
battlements, and palace and temple and
shops and sail, and the lofty mountain
hills behind the city, nearly 1000 feet high =,
stretching of to the right and left-and the
terraces that cover their ides, and the high
ways that wind zigzag up The steep ascent,
and the houses and villas ana hamlets that
dot and enlven the mountain scene. The
contrast with the night was 50 Tiking that
it doubtless heightened the real beauty OF
the scene but it seemed to me that without
that, it was one of the most beautiful lswcepS
for the eve which we have yet looked pon in
Europe.
