The Carrollton sun. (City of Carrollton, Parish of Jefferson, La.) 185?-1???, 1860-11-03

A CAPITAL Trick That Ended We'll.
"A young man was studying in col
lege. One afternoon he walked out
with one of his instructors, and they
CHANGED to see an old pair of shoes ly-
ing by the side of the path, which. up
peared to belong to an old man at work
close by.
"Let us have little amusement at
his expense" said the student {; ''sup-
pose we hide these shoes, and conceal
ourselves in the bushes to watch his
perplexity when he cannot find them y
II can think of a better trick than
that" said the instructor; ''you are
srich, and suppose you put "a silver dol
lar in the toe of each shoe, and then
we will hide"
The young man did so. The poor
man finished his work soon, and went
to put on his shoes. You can imagine
his surprise when he stopped down to
take out a pebble, as he suppose, from
the toe, and found it to be a hard dol
lar, and then. his absolute perplexity
and astonishment, when he found
another dollar in the other shoe. His
feelings overcame hinssshe fell upon
his knees, looked up f heaven, and
uttered aloud feryafl thanksgiv
in which he thanked 4 Kind Providence
for sending some unknown hand to save
from perishihg his sick and helpless
wife, and his children without bread.
Do you wonder that the young man
stood in his hiding place deeply affected
and his eyes filled with tears.

Bartlett, who was stabbed ON Monday by MIR. G.
". Nader, was in a much better condition yester-
day, and in a fair way of recovery. We yesterday
accidentally omitted stating that soon after the
stabbing Nader surrendered himself to the Chief
Of Police and was locked up.
FIRE-About O'Clock yesterday morning fire
was discovered in the kitchen Of Mr.. Ferguson's
residence on Magazine street, between Second and
Third streets. The alarm was given in good time
and serious damage prevented. The fire is attri
buted to incendiarism, and if so, it is the second
attempt within few daysto destroy this gentle
mans property.
THE DRUNKEN, SCoUNDREL !--Coroner Beach helt
an inquest yesterday morning on the body 81 8
woman named Mrs. Murphy, found dead ia a, house
on Dryades street. A man named Collins, who Il
said to have been the pseudo husband of the de
ceased, was guilty of the trick Of getting drunk
upon the money subscribed by the neighbors fol
the burial of the woman, instead Of notifying the
Coroner, who was not made aware Of her deatf
until late last evening, though she had been dead
since Sunday evening.
ALLEGED HoMIcIDE.-A man named Wm. McDer.

the effects, it said, ofa violent beating which
John Brennan gave him on the 26th ult On the
complaint of Ellen Quinn, Brennan was arrested

NoTE.- Besides the above, a Belgie ship, Gateaux
years old, was burned at Sydney Cargo, wool
and gold dust. Particulars unknown.
In the List is placed the ship Galena, as ashore
in the Mississippi, but has got off without any
serious damage. Vessel and freight is put down at
$1l 600, cargo s50O0-total $4,000. 1t ID presum-
ed this is the estimate of damage or detention, as
the cargo was comprised in part of ll40 bales of
cotton, 234 hogsheads of tobacco and other pro
dnce, worth in all over $50 ,Oe0.
The mails come through regularly, as usual, over
the Jackson Railroad. The new apartments for
the Postoffice in the Custom-house pudding are
nearly ready for the moving. In the meantime,
Exchange Place is rapidly being put in frst-rate
order by the square-bloek pavement, after long
time having elapsed since the repairs were sug-
gested. Royal street will be greatly relieved of
the large crowds of people who have congregated
within the vicinity of the Postofiee for years. 1t
is suggested that the lobby of the new Post, Office
will not be devoted as place of gathering, or
where long conversations are to be held or street
yarns spun
We do not observe any increase in the number
Of clerks or assistants in tho Post-oice. If Post
master.General Holt will not consent to an in
crease, on account of inadequate revenues it will
be well for our commercial community to subscribe
five thousand dollars to compensate for at least six
or eight more clerks.

CHEss.-Paul Morphy and Louis Paulsen, the
noted chess players are in New York, and will re-
main there during the coming week. On FRI
day evening they were both at the rooms OF the
Chess Club in the University building, but did
not play together. Mr.. Morphy played with Mr.
James Thompson and beat him two games at the
odds of a knight. Mr.. Paulsen had pa,tie with
Mr.. Lchtenhein, whom he beat. A contest be-
tween Messrs. Morphy and Paulsen is spoken of,
but point of etiquette may keep them apart.
The former gentleman, since his European success,
has declined playing with any person in this coun-
try unless at the odds of pawn and move these
odds Mr.. Paulsen may not accept, but should he do
so, most interesting contest may be anticipated.
