Miss Elizabeth Beatty was tried at Pitts
burg, Fa., short time since, on charge of
murder. committed last January, in Jus
tees Office. The young woman had been
seduced by man named Mccormick, and
had a child by him. He refused to assist the
poor girl and the fruit oftheir sin, and treat
ed her with contempt. She had him arrested,
and he was brought before Justice, who
bound him over for trial. As Mccormick
was turning to leave the Office, Miss Beatty
shot him through the heart, killing him in
stantly. The defense did not deny the act,
but pleaded unsoundness of mind at the time.
The mother of Miss Beatty described the
condition of her daughter after the discovery
of her ruin as most heart-rending The jury
were out three hours, when they returned with
a verdict of q Not Guilty." on the ground of
insanity at the time the homicide was com
mitted; and the prisoner was discharged.

CHARLEsToN.-Russell, who was the early
American war correspondent Of the London
Times, says in his Army and Navy Gazette
of September 5th:
With respect to the present fearful strug
gle in America. we believe that there are
few, whether their sympathies are with the
North or South, who do not believe that
Charleston must eventually succumb to the
batteries of Gen. Gilmore, aided by the at
tacks of the monitors, conducted by perhaps
the ablest naval artillerist of the day. That
Admiral Dahlgren and General Gilmore
should be employed on such very important
service shows that, whatever other failings
the Government of Washington may have. it
certainly does not possess the fault of passing
over either naval or military. ..talent-in fact,
hitherto the difficulty has been to find it
but, when found, superior merit is as certain
to be rewarded as it ever was in France in
the palmiest days of the first Empire"

Of rattlesnakes-whicha are very plenty about

one will locate along side some fellows blar-

invariably means. you know, Hold, there
--or Istrike z, This rattle, where all is so
deathly quiet, is said to be one of the most
thrilling, terrifying sounds imaginable. A
poor fellow has nothing to do for it but tc be
quiet little while, till the snake settles !.
then, if there be no obstruction, get out at the
other side of his blankets, get a light, and
dispatch his bedfellow. If his bed be against
the wall. he must keep quiet. and trust to
