PROVED FLrAL.-The Chinaman who

PROVED FlrAL.-The Chinaman who
was shot on Tuesday evening died yes.
terdsy from his wounds. We under
stand that the immediate cause Of his
death was bleeding internally. The
man who is supposed to have shot him
was put under $4,000 bonds, which he
readily obtained from his American
friends, who were willing to 60 for any
amount asked. George Hong, the man
who is believed to have done the shoot
ing, has many warm friends, who were
ready aud willing to help him out OF his
difficulties. After the bonds were given
and George taken out Of jeopardy, he
invited his friends to q certain liquor
store and called for any quantity OF
champagne wine, and the result was
that there was a merry crowd; and
George has a great notion to put on
boots, cut of his cue and be an Ameri-
a gentleman, and no longer associate
with the vile, uucivilized wretches.
YouSa "CASARY."-This morning we
saw a boy going up c street, Virginia,
with a young jack Of so small dimen-
sions that when the little animal took a
stubborn fit and refused to 60 any fur
Their, the boy took him under his arm
and walked up street with him as though
il WAS a rabbit. The little animal
would not weigh over twenty-five pounds
ut most, and was about the size Of q
Walker River rabbit. We presume it
must have been . Shutland jacksss.

WAITING FOR THE PAPER.s-It is amusing
and sometimes really provoking, to witness the
anxiety OF the guests at hotels to get hold of
the morning papers. There will always be
some few "early birds" who are watching the
arrival of the journals and grabbing them as
soon as the carriers drop them Between them
is sharp contest to be first, and it is amusing
to see the long faces of those who have not
been successful in this morning enterprise,
and quite as amusing to witness the self-com-
placency ofthose who have made the first grab
and quietly sat down to read These rivals al
ways endeavor to conceal their intentions from
each other, walking about apparently quite in
inherent and yet keeping an eve on the front
uoor 10 see 1t open and the paper thrown into
'ne h'i. But the provoking part comes in
"here these lucky ones sit down and read and
read until the patience of the others ia wal,
high exhausted. 1t does seem as if these carly
pirus ought to hurry up their reading and give
.ne others bit of a chance before the break
'"s. oeh rings, but often they do not. and thew
wiz te'u news, advertisements and ALL And
ho'hihg but the sound of the GONG Will, ;rauoo
theili 10 drop the paper. Such Conduct 10 ro.I
~ trying to the religion as well AZ to tbo -.
tiehce Oh the unlucky ones. We have seen tho
faces OF the disappointed betray ANYTHING hut
Christian spirit, and surely the counten,nco,
of those who have made the first grab indicate
not only self-complacency bat also degree of
selfishness not warranted by Scripture. The
truth u.s. the feelings engendered on these &C.
casions make bad beginning for the day.
