Warming to Minors.-U. S. Commissioner
Tuttle has recently decided in "a case before
him that minor, falsely representing him
self without parents living or legal guardian,
and thereby becoming enlisted in the military
or naval service. of the United States, with
the view of receiving the advance pay from
the Government, and then getting discharged
on habeas corpus, commits an offence pun
ishable within the meaning of the acts of Con
gress. The United States authorities have
resolved to put stop to the intolerable an
noyance of being continually imposed upon
by these minors, who, by these false repre-
sentatiOns, get into the service and cause so
much delay and expense to the government.

Singular Case Of HydropAobia-At New
ton, L. l., woman died on last Thursday
evening, after four days suffering, from hy-
drophobia. 1t is said she was bitten or
scratched, in January last, by cat, which it
is supposed had been bitten some time before
by dog whose actions placed him under sas
picions of madness. The cat for some time
acted very strangely, but was supposed to be
only suffering from fits, such as cats are sub
ject to. One day in January last, she sud.
denly leaped upon the arm of her mistress,
and held so tightly with her claws, that
neighbQr, who happened to be in the house,
had to use considerable strength to pull the
animal off. The wounds made by the cats
claws healed up. and no unpleasant conse
quences apparently ensued, till Monday of
last week, when 8 spasmodic attack began,
which was declared by competent physicians
to be clearly hydrophobia in its char>cter.

DRowSED,-James Temporary, a boy
about six years cid, fell into Kish coquillas
creek, above the old stone mill on Saturday
last while fishing, and was drawn under the
wheel into the main stream. A younger
brother gave the alarm, but all search for
his body proved unavailing until Sunday
afternoon, when he was caught by a Crap
ping hook below the stone bridge. An
inquest was held by Coroner Miller, the
Jury returning verdict that he came to his
death by accidental drowning.
FooT BURNT.-Richeson Bratton, Esq,
one of the Commissioners, had his foot
burnt last week in extinguishing fire which

turning home. The meat was saved with
out much injury, but the smoke house con-
suned. 1t was in close proximity to the
lopse, and but for its timely discovery,
