II EVENING NEWS:

@ANN
IN, a, ohop, : o'clock. a man came "
Virginia city for an officer STATING
man living some eight miles from ,"s'"'A
ho1 h.or stabbed. and that he wished an
r. ,o and out and arrest the man
- Nd committed the act. DIR. Nc
~ gas also taken out. TO see the IN
- man. Constable Hickey at once
s,or,ed with the man. and arrived at the
.ro, near 10 o'clock. The man who was
stabbed was n German. and the other Is
said 10 be a Frenchman. but we think he
is an Italian. from his look. The wounded
man was found to have received a knife
wound in the left side, near the region Of
the heart. The wound was properly
dressed by the doctor, but the man sur
vlved but a short time afterwards. Officer
Hickey, with two men as guides, visited
several cabins, and finally found the muir
derer in one Of them. He had just re-
turned to his house. and seemed to be pre-
pairing 20 20 TO bed when the officer en-
tered the house. This morning we saw
the knife with which the man was stabbed.
l, il one of those dagger blades, about an
inch wide. five and one-half inches long.
sharp on both edges. and seems TO be
quite new. The knife was still bloody.
and showed that i, evidently had been
plunged into his victim up to the hilt.
The murderer is u hard looking customer
and seems as ~unconcerncd as though moth
ing had happened. The act was commit
ted on the same wood ranch where the
shooting occurred a short time since,
when several men were injured. Surely
there mus, be something in the water or
atmosphere (t may be in the wood in that
locality which makes men thirst for blood.
We were unable 20 ascertain what the
origin OF the difficulty was, but were told
il was not in regard TO the title OF the land.
The case will have a primary hearing to-
day, when the particulars will be elected.
\ FiGHr.-Yesterday afternoon, while
standing a, the corner Of Union and Z
streets. conversing with Ben Lackey, OF
the police force, we were startled by TWO
men coming on, of Browns lunch house,
tightly held in each others embrace. neither
one apparently making any effort 10 in
lure the other. At first we were unaole
10 tell what was up, but in a few minutes
i, was plain TO be seen that il was not a
friendly embrace, for some words were
made use of tina, was not IN accordance
with orthodoxy. After making one or
two rolls over the sidewalk both arose 10
their feet, and BY this time Lackey had
hold Of them and tried to pull them apart,
bu, i. took some four persons TO break
their grasp. They were conducted 10 the
station house, and both seemed TO be keen
for another round, but Lsckey walked be-
tween them. telling them that II either
made any further attempts he would take
a hand also, and none admire Ben's light
handlers.
BrLLlox.-Van Wyck s. Sanchez, dur
ing the month OF January, 1866, received
for melting and assay, Hits ounces of
crude bullion. And during the month OF
February. e4,SQ9 ounces Of crude bullion.
Edwards s. Wiegand received during
the last 10 days of January, for melting
and assay, 22.eil ounces, worth ST.
547 So: and during the month OF Feb
ruary. lS6, 90i ounces, worth S2I6,oSS 81.
Allowing Edwards & Wiegand TO have
received for the full month Of January in
the same proportion that they did for the
10 DAYS, then the amount received for the
month OF January BY the two offices
would be lS6. $50 ounces, and the amount
received BY them both amounts TO 23l,
7l3 ounces-leaving in favor Of February
over January, 45,ll5 ounces.
ABlAcX LIsr.-It seems that the news
paper carriers have concluded 10 make a
black list. and all those who do not pay
for their paper will get his or her name in
il, and as long as the name is there, the
chances are rather slim for much reading
matter, as none Of the carriers are permit
ted 10 deliver a paper 10 any such person
so long as the name remains on the list.
We consider this u good idea, for a man
that will no, pay for his paper has not the
fear Of God before his eyes, and his hope
Of salvation is slim.
SENT TO THE Jro.-Mr. Ostram, who
was yesterday called as a witness 10 testify
before the grand jury in the case OF Smith
and Neil. i, seems. that the grand jury did
no, seem to relish this duelling business,
nor the shooting demonstration that were
being made. So on yesterday. the grand
iury called Mr.. 0stram TO the stand 10
give his testimony in regard TO what he
might know concerning the affair, but ne
refused 10 give said testimony, and was
sen, 10 isil 10 see if il would not loosen
his tongue.
FAREWELL BESgrIr.- Johnny Tuers,
the old ~favorite at Music Hall. takes n
farewell benefit on next Thursday even
ing. He offers a fine hunting watch to
the best pistol shot. and a basket OF cham
payne TO the person who disposes of the
mos, tickets for the benefit. The watch
il 10 be shot for on the stage. and the
champagne or $50 will be in the bar. No
doubt bu; a huge house will be had on
the occasion.
IT was only the light caused by the
burning Of Smiths barn.-EnterpriIs.
No. Dan. The light you saw one night
recently was the light which was reflected
by the FIRE from that radical stump in
Washington. We told you before that
Smith had no barn burnt-and that we
were only playing" you. II was the
stump. Blu, didn't i, make a blaze!
S~pIRIrrAL.-It will be seen by An ad-
ver,isemeut in another column, that Mrs.
C. NJ. Stowe will give a lecture in the
Cour, House. on Sunday evening next, at
