A Tough job,

On Saturday, colorei woman, named Mary
Brown, whose pugilistic accomplishments are
somewhat known, and have given her the title
of "Queen Of Niger Hill,'' was arrested in
the Northern Liberties, charged with being
drunk and disorderly, and taken before Justice
Barnaclo, who committed her to the workhouse.
A hack was found, and Officer Shield, who was
to accompany her to Queen Castle, got in,
but hardly had the carriage started before she
abused the officer in a manner peculiar to her.
self, going at him with her finger nails and
fists. The officer stood her assaults as long as
possible and was finally obliged to use his
"billy." By this time the hack had reached
tho Avenue, and the driver became fearful that
the trimmings would be torn out, and requested
to be let off from fulfilling the job. Officer Plow.
man coming along in his buggy, offered to take
her down, whom she was at once transferred to
the buggy, but hardly had she started before
she gave Officer Powman several blows A
rope was then procured, and, after being tied
she was got down without further trouble.

some time past. On Friday evening, Mrs. Ca.
hill went to a neighooring store, leaving Mrs
Norris sitting on the foor in her room, by her
self. When she returned, Norris was in the
room, and the body of Mrs. Norris was lying
on the floor, dead or dying, with the blood run
ming from her face. Norris, in answer as to
how she WAS hurt, said that she had fallen from
n chair. An alarm was given; and Norris was
arrested. To ono of thuso who arrested him
he stated that sho had fallen down stairs. Sew
eral witnesses testified that he had often threat
ened to kill her, and one of them said, when he
was accused Of the murder he replied, with HI
oath, that she was gone. When he was taken
before Justice Stratton, who committed him tC
jail, blood was found on his hands. The wounds
wero examined by DR.. Willet, Of which there
were three-one on the left side Of the nose
about three inches deop; ono over the left eye
which was made with sharp instrument, and
bruse under the left ear.
The verdict WAS, that she came to her death

Case Dismissed.

The charge against the young German,
Jacques Oberwhard, of stealing a box ofjewelry
containing, among other articles, a diamond
ring valued at one hundred and fifty dollars,
from Victor Borchardt, the sutler of the Carl.
bald Guards. was heard on Friday by Justice
Walter. The evidence was to the effect that
the ring and other articles had been placed in
the hands of Oberwhard in trust. This trust,
however, he violated, and went to New York
and sold them. The articles were placed in his
possession at the camp of the Garibaldans
some weeks since. Tho Justice decided tnat 1t
was only y breach of trust; and on the articles,
which had been redeemed by Oberwhard's
friends, being restored, he dismissed the case

To The Editor National Republican:
You will confer favor and at the same time
but perform an act Of Justice, by inserting this
card, In order to corr oct the tissue of blunders,
into which your reporter has been wantonly
led In your issue Of today, as regards the cir
oumstances In connection with the exciting
scene" between Mr.. John H. Linton and my
self, in the Orphans Court yesterday.
The correct version of the affair Is this
Upon the lady witness taking the seat usu-
ally occupied to testify, Mr.. Linton took posses.
sion of the chair Of the vacant clerkship, In
close proximity to that Of the witness, and upon
my observing that he had assumed an imperti'

He shortly turned his face full round and with
in three feet of that of the witness, and mur.
muring something assumed a fixed stare upon
her cOuntenance. 1t was at this time l APP
pealed to tho Court to "please order that mans

court for my conduct, but upon the Judge tax.

defence, and that was about to defend myself
from threatened attack with u bludgeon.
The court then ordered the Sheriff 10 take
charge of Mr.. Linton's cane, and requested mo
to deliver my weapon to him, or take 1t out uf

WILSON'S zoUAvEs.
Baltimore, Oct. 1.-THE Norfolk Day Book
received this morning, contains dispatch
from New Orleans, giving an account Of the
surprise and attack made on Wilson'S Zouaves
at Santa Rosa Island, on the 9Th instant.
Dstacbments from several Mississippi, Louisl

The ZDuaves are credited with having fought

of forty killed and about double that number
wounded.
They claimed to have spiked the guns Of the
Zouayes, and destroyed all Of their camp equip.
age, and to have committed great slaughter
among the Zouaves, but they gave no numbers
of the killed. They also carried off several OF
them prisoners
