COMING HOME. = Our very worthy ana
highly esteemed fellow-citizen Mr.. Samuel
Orr, and his excellent wife and charming
daughter, sail from Liverpool to-day in
the steamer Persia for the United States.
The Persia is one of the finest vessels that
ply between the Old and New Worlds, and
made her last trip from New York to
Queenstown in the unprecedented short
time of six days. We hope that her return
voyage may be as short and that the winds
and the waves may be as propitious. Mr..
Orr, we are told, is Fastening home to vote,
and we understand that some of our Cop
perhead friends are greatly exercised there
at, and express their opinion that the eoun-
try is about gone to the d-l when patriots
come all the way from Old Ireland in octo-
Der, on the best ship afioat, to enjoy the
high privilege of voting the Black Repub-
lican ticket. We. shall not be surprised if
the tender feelings of some of our highly
conservative and eminently national citi-
zens shall be lacerated by hearing prayers
offered up tomorrow in all our churches
for speedy and safe voyage to Mr.. Orr and
family.

9 Yesterday, as we were pass
ing down Water Street, we saw our noble
friend, Capt. Humphrey, sitting in his
commission house holding live rat of
medium size by its ndrdtiUe. TO our inte-
rogation on the subject, he informed us
.that he had caught it in his hands, and
was awaiting the return of DR.. Oakley,
who desired TO make certain scientific ex-
periments upon the animal. The Doctor
arrived, and saturated the rat with a liquid
extract Of pynooons, a caustic liquid, after
which the rat was turned loose The OBJ
jeet of the experiment. was to test the
theory that the extract was inimicaI to
rats, and one saturated with il would cause
ali others to leave the premises. The ex-
pertinent excited great Interest among
crowd of spectators, who gathered around
to witness the scientific operation of the
learned son o. Esculapius. We hope to be
able to give the result of the beautiful ex-
pertinent hereaftS ar. q 81 d {, 80 SD HBas'E

" A NARROW EscAPE.-Yesterday after

posted themselves in front of the Courier
Office on the opposite side ofthe street,ana
entered into earnest conversation, the
whites casting occasional glances across the
Street. The editor of the Courier carefully
watched theirgmoYemepts, until from their
manners, gestures, and accustomed glances
in that direction, he became convinced
that they were emissaries of the Grand
Army of the Republic, and that they medi-
tated hoStiifties against his chebang."
Horror and dread took hold of him, and
fear and trembling made his knees to smite
together, when a happy thoughtpenetra-

the American flag stretched across the
room on the inside, and sought protection
