THE CROPS IN THE VICINITY OF Louis
vILLE.-The journal says, wheat in this
county has been attacked by rust and smut
or by rust, smuSt and scab. Consequently
the yield must prove greatly short of an
average crop, whilst the quality in most
cases will be poor. Rust has also made its
appearance in the cat fields within few

The French Minister has had an official
interview with Mr.. Cass, during which he
rendered the fullest and most satisfactory
disavowal of all completely by the French
Government in Mr.. Belleys project in Mic
aragua and Central America. The Union,
in noticing the subject, says: Involving, as
the operations of this parsonage did, if they
have been effectual, clear violation of the
well known policy of this Government, in
regard to European colonization and the
establishment of exclusive European juris-
diction on this continent was not supposed
that the French Government could have
authorized the action taken by Mr.. Belly in
Nicaragua.

BaS@ The citizens of Georgetown, d. c.,
were shocked on Friday last by the brutal
murder of an interesting young girl, by an
Irish laborer, who had become enamored OF
her. Because she refused to marry him, he
stole into her room at night and with q
knife prepared for the purpose, cut her
throat. She survived but a few minutes,
long enough only to tell who had perpetrat-
ed the act. The murderer was arrested,
and the laborers on the aqueduct were so
excited by the atrocity Of the deed, that
they seized him and nearly beat him to
death before he was rescued by the officers,
who took him to prison.

When caught with the stolen articles upon
her, she confessed the crime, and acknowl-

matter wat settled and hushed up on the

with strong temptations to steal, she would
have gone to the penitentiary for four or
