Catslrill, was shot and instantly killed by
James Mcclure, i'll grocery-storc at Stuy
vesant Landing, on Tuesday night. They
were both intoxicated, and getting into a
quarrel, Mcclure drew sistol and shot
Taylor, he says, in self-defence The ball
penetrated the brain of the latter, causing
instant death. Mcclure, who belongs to
Peekskill where his parents reside, was i'm
mediately arrested.
The ship-building interest of
New-England is now suffering greater de-
preston that it has experienced for years,
and many of the yards are silent and desert
ed. Only about sixteen vessels are now on
the stocks in the entire State of Massachu-
sets. In New-Hampshire and Maine the
business is somewhat brisker, though COM
petition with the ship-huilders of the Brit
ish Provinces is difficult and discouraging.
At Bradford, Mass. spiritual
ist named Smith, held sceance at his house
on Tuesday night, which was disturbed by
some young men of the village. This en-
ragged Smith, who rushed out with pistol
and shot one of them, named Samuel Web
ster, dead. Smith then surrendered him
self to the authorities. Webster leaves a
wife and family.
On Thursday evening the body
of an unknown man was found in the woods
near New-Brunswick, N. J. There was moth

The evidence before the Coroners Jury
showed that he was killed by pistol ball,
but whether fired by his own hand or that
of an assassin could not be determined. He
was about thirty years Of age, had dark hair,
and had been dead five or six days.

Mems of tbe 1nsek.

Mexican News by way of Ha-
wanna through Imperial sources represent
that the Liberal forces beseiging Queretaro
have been defeated that Miramon, instead
of being dead, is pressing the Liberal forces
to the wall. 1t is further stated that Maxi
millian had entered the City of Mexico with
5000 men, and had defeated Diaz, captur-
ing all his artillery and 1,5OO prisoners, the
latter Immediately joining the Imperial
forces. The messenger, sent by our Minis
ter. Hon. L. D. Campbell to Juarez, has
just reached New-Orleans, and brings news
which contradicts the above He reports
Escobedo at Qusretaro with 35, 900 men, and
in possession of all the roads but one
Maximillian was in the city with $4,000
men, and it was confidently believed that he
would speedily surrender. The Liberals
feel very bitter toward Maximillian and his
native officers, and it is doubtful if Juarez
can save their lives in case of their being
taken prisoners
The lightning played strange
freaks in the house of Mr.. Joshua Jeffries,
Trenton, Mr.. j., May Is. 1t entered the
house ON the root, by the side of the Chin
ney, shivering one of the rafters, and knock
ing down a quantity of the ceiling of the
upper bedroom. 1t then passed down the
frame of large mirror hanging against the
chimney, shivering the frame, thence down
the iron support of small centre-table, then
along the floor, ripping up the carpet and
tearing out pieces of the flooring, and so
out of the side of tn house. From this
point it passed along between the tin roof
ing and the wood of the kitchen roof, and
followed down tin water pipe into the
ground, tearing up the bricks and making a
hole about a foot in depth. No one in the
house. was injured, although servant girl
was badly scared by it.
On Sunday last while a large
lumber of people were visiting an Indian
encampment near Auburn, Me-, David L.
Stetson, a white man, got into quarrel
with colored boy named jackson Lewis.
During the quarrel Lewis stabbed Stetson
in the back with poeket-knife, inficting
serious but not fatal wounds. Lewis was
arrested.

JEFFERSON DAVIS.

The city dailies have given US
long and thrilling accounts of the
passage Of Jefferson Davis from
Fortress Monroe to the city of Rich
mond, whittier the arbitrator was
called by writ of habeas corpus, is
sued by Judge Underwood. The
boat was crowded with curious and
obsequious people, and every place
from the point of starting to the land
ing crowds gathered to see his Sa-
tanic majesty. Two bridal parties
went up on the boat in order to get
little notoriety, and add eclat to
the liberation of the grand criminal.
Some of the rebel ladies', dear crea-
lures, shed tears when they saw the
pale, haggard look of the dishonored
chief. We suppose some people
would cry, if Beelzebub was releas-
ed, after he had been chained while.
When the name of John M. Bolts
was called out in the Court House,
as one of Davis bail, a great buzz
went up, because, we suppose, Bolts
had not been a true rebel. There is
no accounting for tastes, or the queer
whim of people. We are surprised
at one piece of great disrespect, and
want of feeling, on the part of Gen.
Burton, and his subordinates, who
had Davis in charge, and we should
not be surprised if he was instantly
dismissed from the public service
when it gets to the ears of our wor-
thy President,) and that was. that
the Stars and Stripes were hoisted
and allowed to wave over the boat
during it's passage up the James,
with Davis and William B. Reed on
it and it is surprising that these
worthless would remain on it under
such a standing insult. Hope the
Government officials will make hasty
and due apologies for this grevious
ofense, and suggest that the Honor
able Edgar Cowan be appointed on
special mission for this purpose
Mr.. Doolittle goes to Russia, and
why should not Cowan go some
where Oh a special embassy -? Davis
was released on ball. and is there
fore, now at large. The result we
anticipated more than a year ago
and what a pretty farce John sons
reward of a hundred thousand dollars
which he offered, and paid out of the
public treasury, for Davis arrest
turns out to be }? The arrest, i'm
prisonment, and mock trial, which he
is to have, costing not less than hal
million of dollars, all of which
could have been saved if Davis haC
been suffered to flee in the first place
and this should have been done Fol
then, besides saving this waste O
public money, the nation would have
been spared the dishonor which tht
pusillanimous conduct of the admin.
istration has brought upon it in it,
management of the great criminal
From this out Davis will be a hero
The great martyr of a great cause
Had he been left to flee all this dis
grace would have been averted.

B9 Dispatches from Europe state
that the conference of representa-
tives of leading powers which had
assembled in London to try to recon
cile the Luxembourg difficulties be-
tween Prussia and France has been
successful. The terms of the settle
ment are the guarantee by the great
Powers of Europe of the neutrality
of the Grand Duchy of Luxumburg,
which is to remain, as heretofore pro-
vided by the treaty of 1889, under
the rule of the King of Holland. In
order that these provisions may be
effectually carried out, the fortress
of Luxembourg is to be razed to the
ground, the Prussian troops are to
be withdrawn, and no army is to re-
main within the territory of the duchy
except such a limited force as may
be required for the purposes OF
police.

B9r Reports from the Southern

H9r Reports from the Southern
States to the Union Republican Con-
gress Executive Committee, says the
Washington correspondent of the
Tribune, give flattering statement
of the work Of organizing the Re-
publican party in those States
Louisiana, from all accounts,is ahead
of the other States in the good work.
This is attributed to the determined
and judicious course of Gen. Sheri-
dan, who is showing no mercy to
Rebels, and is using all the means
placed at his disposal by the Recon
struction act Virginia is behind the
other States in organization, but the
Radical Union politicians write that
they have full faith in Gen. Schofield,
who is moving slowly, but in the
right direction. The Committee is
daily receiving contributions from
the North, and continually sending
agents South to aid in the organiza-
tion. Gen. Banks is now here, and
the Committee is trying to have him
make political tour South. Anna
Dickinson has also been invited by
the Committee to make tour through
the Southern country. The Commit
tee agents state that the negroes in
and around the large cities and towns
are almost entirely Radical Republi-
can. Those in the back country and
around large plantations are more or
less controlled by their masters.
