DtRIRG BURGLARY AND ATTEMPT 70 MUIR
DER.


IFt0m the nlliinorc hcluuHN4hi hhFOh @l .. W..
About one o. clook this morning the pastors residence
attached TO the church of the immaculate Conception, ON
The corner Of Ross aud Mosher streets, WAS broken into by
s,n,o daring robber. In the course of his nefarious do
Incs the burglar entered the chamber OF the Rev. MIR.
Giustiniani, who, upon arising from his bed, was knocked
down with a billy or slupg-shot. and left insersible upon
the aoor, while the villain ritied his pockets, taking there
from what money he could find, and also the gold watch
Of the pastor, which was lying on the table. The iiev,
Mr. ouigley, the associate pastor, being in an adJoin-
iog room, was awakened by the noise, and got up
10 inquire what was the matter. Upon going towards
bs brother's room he met the burglar, who In
,autIy presented a pistol ut his breast and demand
ed his money OF his life. Mr. Gaigley begged that
he might be allowed to so to his chamber for the money.
Being allowed TO pass, he went into the room of Mr.. Gil
ustiniani, and found him lying on the floor weltering in
his blood. Seeing a watchman's rattle in the room, Mr..
ouieley threw up the window and sprang the rattle with
ALI his strength. Instantly the villain, who v as waiting
for him. fred upon him and fled out of the house. For
tunately Mr.. Quigley was not hit, the ball whizz,ng past
him and burying itself in the window-frame by which he
was standing. A police officer shortly answered the rat
tie, but too late to intercept the daring burglar. Rev.
Mr.. Giustiniani is seriously hurt, and is at present CON
fined to his chamber from the effects Of the blows he re-
ceived.
Since writing the above we are informed that the inju-
res Of the Rev. gentleman are so serious as to cause pain
full apprehensions of a fatal termination.

ssyious disturbance occurred ut the Charleston jail on
s.nrday morning in a desperate assault by two OF the
DSonex upon Mr.. John ., Miliigan, the Tailor, and his
P"Ltsnts. who were about making an examination Of
~ ell Ia which the prisoners were confined Mr. MIL
80 suspicions had been aroused by AN unusual noise
y me- cell that morning. For the purpose OF inspection,
- ouie,rd the two prisoners, Il. Holden, awaiting trial,
ad John Gurley, under sentence for larceny, TO leave
We cell. IN complying with this order, Holden dealt
NJ, Milligan a severe blow upon the head with a TRAN
anbT piece Of brick Slung Ia the arm OF a WOODEN shirt
H. H." MHiIIigan Immediately fired his revolver, but either
~ ~, M eeeots Of the blow, or from the scufle which
n n"n.d the pistol dropped before he had disabled his as
liant A desperate struggle then took place between
NJ MilIiran, his son, a lad fourteen years of age, the
..ichman. and a colored prisoner named Miles, on the
"m mart. and Holden and Gurley ON the other. BY the
."Nrge displayed by young Miiiigan in tho defence of
H. G,tber. who was stunned, and the active assistance OF
Miles who reduced Holden To quiet by repeated vigorous
IIows with a broom handle upon the head, the prisoners
nrre secured and placed in irons.
rbe ,leputy sheriff made u thorough examination of the
ii. IN The afternoon. He found a square hole In the
Snor Of the cell occupied by Holden aud Gurley, which,
~ means of an excavation through the masonry, led 20
a ~ occupied cell directly below. Upon inspection OF the
oI oocupied by Foster, the burglar, who is under sen
t,nce of death, Friday next having been appointed for
Nj, execution Mr.. Dingle found % case knife, with a
icely-sl,arpened edge, having a hnely-cut saw on Its
%acE and a bottle of oil. This caused closer exaInina-
,mn when a similar hole was found in the floor OF this
eli and communicating, like the Others, with the unoc-
cnnied cells beneath. Foster acknowledged that 1t was
Ma work, and that he was the i~nstigator of the whole
business. Had this discovery not taken place, Foster
uould undoubtedly have been at liberty by daybreak.

FLEXIBLE IVORR.

NJ. Charrierc, a manufacturer of surgical instruments
in Paris, has, for some time, been in the habit of render
Ing flexible the ivory which he uses in making tubes,
probes, and other instruments. He ayails himself OF a
fact which has long been known, that when bones are
subjected to the action of hydrophochloric acid, the phos-
phate of lime, which forms one of their component parts,
Is extracted, and thus bones rest in their original form
and acquire great ~fexibility.
NJ. Charriere, after giving to the pieces of ivory the re-
quired form and polish, sleeps them in acid alone, or in
acid partially diluted with water, and they thus become
supple, flexible, elastic, and Of a slightly yellowish color.
In the course of drying, the ivory becomes hard and in
flexible again, but its ~fcxibility can at once be restored by
voting it, either by surrounding it with a piece OF wet
liReR, or by placing sponge in the cavities Of the places.
