BELTS TO SAVERS AND HEENAN pre-
sentation Of belts TO Sayers and Heenan took
place at the Alhambra Palace, Leicester
Square, on the 30th ultimo, and was attended
by interesting ceremonies. Before the ad-
dresses were delivered which were to precede
the award, the pugilists advanced half way
towards each other, and cordially shook hands
in token of their final reconciliation. The
hrst belt Of the two was presented to Heenan,
accompanied by an address written on parch-
ment, which was formally read, amid the vo-
ciferous cheering Of the concourse, by Mr..
Bowling. The belt, massive piece of silver,
about three inches in width bearing the in
scription HChampion Of England" and orna-
mented with several designs emblematical of
the prize ring, was then handed to Heenan,
who straight way buckeled it around his waist
amid loud and prolonged applause. Mr.. Wilkes
editor of the New York Times, then spoke in
behalf of Sayers Both addresses ELECTED
hearty applause. The "men'' we're in admi-
rable condition, and their vissges bore no per-
ceptible traces of the terrible punishment they
mutually underwent on the memorable 18th
of April.

The PRESIDENTIAL WOMES.-The women
who have chances for the White House must
not be forgotten. They may have quite as
much to do with the destiny of the country, in
their way, as their more mentioned husbands
Mrs. Lincoln is charming woman of 80, intel
isent, social, and easy and graceful in manner.
She Is In religion a Jealous Presbyterian. Mr.
Lincoln attends the same church. but is not
member. He, however, is a moral man. and
strict tee 'Otaler. A temperance President
with Presbyterian lady to preside at the
White House, may effect some changes in
Washington manners Mrs. Bell is a lady of
decided character and energy, and is not bit
terly pro-slavery in principle At the murder
of the waiter at the hotel in Washington, by
Herbert. Of Californis, she took the occasion to
express her strong abhorrence of the manners
of southern rufia who chanced to obtain seats
in the National Legislature. Mrs Douglas has
been for few years-ever since her marriage,
in faet-One of the queens of Washington So
ciety. Whatever people think of the Little
Giant il is settled by a unanimous vote, that
Mrs Douglas is charming. If she was a candi
date for nomination, no convention would ig-
more her claims. If she were running for Pres
ident, she would unite all suffrages, unless
some fanatics went against her on religious
grounds; for Mrs. Douglas is an earnest, prac-
tical Roman Catholic I.

the manner in which trees, grain, grass. build

of the track usually varies from so to I5O
rods, seldom exceeding IO0 The speed Of the
tornado often exceeds 100 miles per hour In
many eases, especially in one which took place
at NRtehez in 1910, such a vacuum is created
In the centre Of the tornado, that the strong

fall OHtUayd, sometimes in the face of a blast

Of the track; 50 persons assert who have stool
close by, and common observations confirms
these statements. These visitors are also
found TO indulge in some strange freaks, as
stripping fowls Of their feathers; carving
articles Of clothing up chimneys; dragging
plOughs, carts, and the like for = onsidersble
distance; emptying ponds of water and fish,
and even scooping out the mud; taking frames
OF looking glasses without further injury to
either; drawing nails out of roofs, without
disturbing the roof; stripping horses of their
harness, and buryiDg objects thus carried of
deeply in the earth. Unfortunately these
tricks are too costly to make n repetition of
them desirable. But they show that, like the
elephant with his trunk, the monster can pick
mp pin from the ground as well as rend an
oak. Some years ago . tornado occurred in
central New York and cut clean path through
the woods of about one-eighth Of a mile in

regularity and order. The parallel lines we're
perfect almost to the measurenent Of foot.

SHOCKING Academia GIRL KILLED WHILE
Tied TO Cow.-The Albany Argus of June
Sth, says "A terrible accident occurred in
the town of Delhi, Delaware county, a week
ago yesterday, which resulted in the death of
a little girl, seven years old The parties to
the sad occurrence were VIM. Scott, a boy sew
enteen years old, and his half-sister, Elizabeth
Dolby, the victim. The boy had been sent to
take the cows TO pasture, the little girl accom-
panying him. He had with him a piece of
rope, with which he was to bring back some
hay. On his way he playfully tied one end of
the rope around the body of his sister, and the
other end TO the cows tail. When the COW had
proceeded short distance in this way, followed
BY the girl, the latter stumbled and fell, which
so frightened the COW that she ran of at a
furious rate, dragging the poor girl after her
After running some distance the girls head
struck a solid rock, crushing in the skull, and
at the same tinse ths cows tail pulled out, so
great was the force of the resistance. The girl
was also badly cut around the face, neck, and
head She was taken up by the boy and car
rled nome, where she breathed but two OF
three times before expiring The boy is said
TO be rather deficient in intellect, and it is not
supposed that he realized the imminent danger
chievous conduct

Terrible Domestic Tragedy In New Orleans
AN INJURED HUSBAND TAXES THE LAW INTO
HIS OWN HANDS, AND Is HELD TO HAVE
ACTED JUSTLY.
From the New Orleans Delta, June71
We mentioned yesterday that Joseph Will
liams, charged with the killing of George ST
Howe, the night clerk of the fourth distric-
statlon-house, had been discharged by Recor
der Summers The following is the statement
made in writing to the court:
STATEMENT or JOSEPH C. WILLIAMS
have suspected George Howe for more than
a year OF having designs upon my wife, and
have been convinced for four month past that
be was carrying on criminal intercourse with
her He met her at several places, visited my
house during my absence, and was seen coming
out Of il at O'Clock in the morning.
L forbade him my house, and warned him
never to go there again. He repeatedly re-
turned, and was invariably warned to cease
his visits.
On Friday, before my arrest, had long
talk with him, and he pledged himself never
to come to my house again and spoke in the
highest terms of my wife's character. took
a drink with him and then parted, he renew
ing the promise never to visit nv wife I felt
quite unhappy, but did not know what further
to do.
About O'Clock that night 1 undressed to
60 to bed, when knock was heard at the
No'i' Nlo went 10 lne door, and
asked who was there. 1 heard Howe say. I
want to see Mr.. Williams, the id rascal.
L then came out into my parIor, and Howe
abused me and cursed me, shook a cane at
me, and said | had been speaking about him
and my wife, and that l was id lying
lie repeated the oath, and placing his hand
behind his back, took hold Of pistol 1 then
went back into my chamber and got the revol-
yer always carry when travelling / said to
him, when l came back, "Go out, will talk
to You outside" He refused to leave re-
ne"ed his curse, and presented his pistol He
was beside himself with rage, and was on the
point OF shooting me down in my own house,
when fired at him. My wife Immediately
seized my arm, and my pistol was twice dis
charged in the struggle
L acted altogether in self defense against a
man who had first seduced my wife and then
come to my dOmicile to seek a quarrel, and
murder me before my wife and my innocent t
children. L am very sorry to have been
Obliged to act in this manner, and to have been
driven to the necessity of shedding human
blood; and it weighs heavily upon my heart.
But before this court and before my country.
and In the presence of God, declare that |
was obliged to do it for my own preservation
