RADLY SCARED.

The Radicals Of Illinois have pleaded guilty
to a great scare by over-slaughing Hon. s.
W. MoULroN, the member at large from that
State of the present House, in favor ofthe mil
itary hero, LOGAN, (DouGLAs Democrst) Com
sidering that MoULroN has performed all the
dirty work allotted to him by THAD. STEVENS
4 Co. during the session just passed, this is
rather hare fare, and q most palpable con.
fession of the inherent weakness Of the Radi-
cal party when placed upon its merits.
They dare not trust themselves with the peo-
pie on their political records pure and simple,
but must invoke the military prestige Of one
whom the Republicans considered political
charlatan when he was in Congress before
the war 1t is evident that the Radicals are
nearly done "bluffing." They arc beginning
to look at their hands.

Havana.
We find the following news from Havan
IN Au1ust Atb in Nav Work nanars.

We find the following news from Havana
to August 4th in New York papers:
Fires have become alarmingly frequent
within the last ten days. Last night the
coffee house and billiard saloon, well known
as the Louvre" situated directly back Of
the Tacon Theatre, was destroyed. The fire
originated in livery stable on the corner Of
the block, and one-half Of the block on that
side was burned down, through to the next
street. The other half Of the block, which
was occupied as barber shops hat and cigar
stores, soda-water establishments, etc., and
the rooms occupied by the Circulo or Club
of Havana, in the upper part of the building,
suffered less, as the progress OF the fire was
arrested here. Payret, the proprietor Of the
Louvre" loses about 100000, although in
sured for $4,000.
We also learn from Cardenas that the
large cooperage, sugar, and molasses ware
houses of Messrs. W. q. Stafford and Caddcra
were burned down on the lst inst. The loss
on the buildings and contents is estimated at
$40, 900, on which there is insurance. This
is the third or fourth time that Mr.. Stafford
has lost his establishment by FIRE.
There is very little shipping in the harbor
of Havana, and business Is generally dull.
The weather is warm.

A CASE OF ANEsrHEsrA IN CoURT.-The
Pittsburg Leader says that case Of unusual
interest is soon to come up before the courts
of that city, in which avery respectable mar
ried lady charges deRtist in that city with
committing an outrage upon her while under
the influence of laughing-gas or some other
anesthetic agent. 1t is urged for the defence
that ladies, when recovered from the inau-
ence of chloroform, are apt to imagine and
assert that all sorts Of outrages have been
committed on them, and it is the intention
of the defendant to have the character and
extent of these hallucinations fully investi-
gated, by the introduction of the most com
petent and scientific testimony, for the bene-
fit of the dental and medical professions.

" Kiss the Book

Six lily white hands, belonging to as many
fair daughters Of our great mother Eve, are
placed upon the Holy Volume-very small
the book, and in black binding, dog-earcd,
and foul to look upon. But what matters
that The exterior is notlthe index to that
which Is within. Clad in figs we may find o

know are contained In itsl precious pages
Six fair hands press the volume as the Mayor
administers the sacred oath in solemn voice,
"Kiss the book"
In quick obedience, six pairs Of cherry-not
tosay cherub-lipslightly touch the soiled lids
and the forms Of an oath are ented. Then
these six pairs Of cherry lips tell their story
Of wrong or imagined wrong. 1t is entered

The oath is taken. kiss the book"-and
six pairs Of thick and dusky lips, such as an
African princess would glory in possessing
reigns profound in the court, while issuing

dusky daughters of Africa tell their story too.
And thus it goes on from day to day, and
the lips Of high and low, Of rich and poor, of
black and white, press that old worn volume

where all men seek for justice-for the poor

all who seek to right their wrongs, must kiss

sectarian Cen4..ver.y.

We find this in thc Journal of Commerce /:
The Canadian Government sometimes find
II very difficult TO satisfy Iall sections with a
population 80 diversified In language and
sentiments In Lower CanstlA is the large
French Roman Catholic mnjority, with OBJ
jects peculiarly their own and in the South
Ia Upper Canada, where the English element
preponderates, no less devoted to objects, an
tagonistic to the former. Accordingly sys-
TEN Of general education, for example, that
shall apply TO all classes, without discrimina-
ton, Is not likely TO meet the uniform ap-
proval Of religious sects. The difficulty that
caused the resignation Of Mr.. Calf, the able
Minister Of Finance grew out Of o discussion
In Parliament relative TO the proposed ex-
tension Of the separate school system. 1t was
proposed, and with fair prospects of success,
to extend TO the Protestant ministry in Lower
Canada certain privileges; but when q bill
was introduced to favor the Catholic minority
in Upper Canada in like manner the game
was blocked. O. I1..s.-'' s.fya G}t#iS
To gratify both parties, without distinction
as TO sect "either the common schools of
Upper Canada would have to be made de-
nominational schools, ofthe Protestant cast
or the Catholic schools Of Lower Canada
would have to be secularized." One Of these
alternatives was as impracticable as the
other, because resolutely opposed by the ma
jority Of the two sections respectively. Mr..
Gait, having committed himself at an earlier
period Of the iscussion--when less involved
found there was left open no avenue Of rei
treat consistent with honor, except in retiring
from his ministerial position. As the sep
arate school question was long ago supposed
to have been compromised, probably all par
ties will now consent to abandon the con-
test, and live in peace. .,rs

The Philadelphia papers give the details
Of the attrpcious murder committed in that
city by an unknown man who thus far has
escaped detection. This man, accompanied
by prepossessing young woman, at about
noon on Friday, entered room which he
had previously engaged at q house kept by
Mrs. Laura Tyson, on Eleventh street. The
unknown man opened the door Of the room
and entered with his companion, without
evincing anything extraordinary in his de-
meanor, and after remaining for an hour or
more, during which not the slightest noise
was heard, he made his exit, closing the door
sharply behind him. He was smoking cigar
at this time, which had apparently been
lighted but q moment and descending the
staircase, accosted the colored attendant as
follows: l.,..... -.... s.... ,r,,
Where is your mistress-the lady of the
house wish to speak with her."
This brought Mrs, Tyson from her room,
when the unknown man said: -a h.
"Mrs. Tyson, my lady friend has fallen

her remain undisturbed until call again.

He then gave the lady Of the house sum
Of money in payment for his lodging and de-
parted. a.. -. ........,.,...,,-...- -, ...I
All remained quiet in the house, and not
the slightest suspicion was aroused among
the inmates Of the dwelling relative to the
terrible crime that had been perpetrated by
the fend who had just departed with such q
nonchalent air. ,..--... ....,t
In about an hour after the departure Of
the supposed murderer Mrs. Tyson was called
up stairs, and on her way up tried the door
OF the room alluded to- and after knocking
and receiving no answer, thrust the door
open. Mrs. Tyson observed that the room
was very dark, and that the shutters had been
closed and locked and the curtains drawn
together so as to exclude oil light. She then
opened the shutters and approached the bed.

around an object in human form.
Alarmed at this sight, she called for help,
and at once proceeded to unwrap the body
and unravel o shocking mystery. In the
clothes she found the corpse of the young
woman who had an hour before stepped into
her premises the personifcation Of health
and comeliness. .'
At q closer examination il was revealed
that the unfortunate woman had come to her
death through violent struggle. She had
been choked with large portion of sheet,
which had been forced into per mouth. Her
throat was cut from ear to ear, and death
had ensued almost Immediately after the in
