| SHOOTING AFFAIR IN PETERsBURG.-A
serious difficulty occurred on Old street
| Yesterday afternoon between Mr.. Robert
Smith and DR.. Samuel II. Prosise, in which
| the former was shot in the right eve, and
the latter was beaten. Tho difficulty, it
! is said, originated in some remarks of a
derogatory character alleged to have been
| made Ivy DR.. ProSise in Difference to tc-
male member of Mr.. Smiths family. Tho
parties met on the strcct-Dr. Prosise
being armed with large single barrclcd
pistol, which, as is stated, he commenced
drawing on the approach of Mr.. Smith.
Mr.. James Spaulding, who was standing
near, handed small revolver to Mr..
Smith-seeing that the latter was nm
armed /; which he received, and subsc-
quently used.
Reports are conflicting as to who fred
the iirst shot, and therefore we make no
POSITIVE statement on this point. Dr..
froSlse's pistol was loaded with buckshot,
one or more of which entered Mr.. Smiths
eye, lnlilctlng painful and serious wound,
and one which it is feared will result in
the total loss of that organ. 1t is alleged
that as soon as he fred Dr.. Prosisc threw
ms pistol at Mr.. Smith and retrcated. Mr..
smith hred two or three times, but with
out effect. DR.. Prosisc was pursued and
oVertaken by Mr.. Smith and his father,
and severely handled. he received seve-
raj blows about the head, and one or more
wounds.
DR.. Prosise was arrested by officer So
mers and lodged in Jail to await trial. He
was quite bloody, and his wounds had to
be dressed.

THE FARMERS BANK.-Thc president and

made deed some months ago for the be-
netit of their creditors, and the books OF
the mother bank and branches have passed
into the hands Of counsel for collection.
Within the last four weeks, bank notes
of the Farmers issue have risen in the
market. AS much as ST., 200 have been
offered by counsel Of creditors to counsel
OF benehciaries of the trust deed in this
place for payment of old scores, but we
believe in every case counsel has refused
to take the old notes-which have been

REMARKABLE FEcuNp1Tr.-We briefly
stated on Friday last that a German named
John Haeffler, living in this city, had on
the previous day followed to the grave his
th'rty-thrd child, and that he was the ia
Their of thirty-scven children. Since then
We have learned some further particulars
OF this remarkable case. HacfIler was
married three times. His first marriage
took place in Germany when he was
twenty-one years of age. With this wife
he had seventeen children. At four sue
ccssive accouchments triplets, twice twins,
and the last a single birth. Shortly after
the latter event, the wife died. He was
again married, and the issue of the second
wife was fifteen children-seven times
twins, and the eighth single child. This
wife also died shortly after the last birth.
His third and present wife has thus far
presented him with five children, one at a
birth. The children were, nineteen boys
and eighteen girls, only four of whom are
now living; but whether the living are all
issue of the last wife, or part of the pre-
vious wives, We have not ascertained.
Hae1lcr is now flfty-two years of age, of
medium size, and of hardy, vigorous con-
stitution.-Lancaster (Pa.) Express.
