SUDDEN CHANGE IN THE WEATHER
HEAVY FALL OF SNow.-On Friday and
Saturday last, the weather was warm and
vernal as April. Ii was cooler on Sunday
morning, however, and by noon there was
a sharp wind blowing from the North,
with thick, dark clouds over head. About
three O'Clock it commenced raining with
sleet. At night-fall it was sleeting rapidly,
and before midnight it had commenced
showing very hard it continued to snow
through the night, attaining a depth OF
five inches before eight o'clock the next
morning. Ii continued TO snow rapidly
throughout the day on yesterday. 1t has
been the heaviest fall of snow that has
been known in this latitude for thirty
years, and many say the heaviest ever
known here. If the ground had been
frozen and none of the snow melted, there
would have been depth on the ground of
from twelve TO fifteen inches. 1t is now
s o'clock P. NJ. Monday, still showing and
turning some colder, with a prospect OF
winter in earnest

One Man BADLY Beaten by Another in
n SaiOOn-The Parties Arrested.
A bloody ARRAY occurred on Saturday,
in which one of the parties was beaten very
severely, and really came near being de-
prived Of life. 1t is not ascertained how
the difficulty originated, there not having
been, as far as known, any previous mis-
understanding between the parties. On the
day named, Jas. Kneal went into the Sham
rock saloon, GROCERY which was in full
blast during the Christmas holidays. As
he entered he was followed by another man
named Morris Lansden. Lansden COM
menced using abusive language TO Kneal,
and finally struck him. He then seized 8
billet of wood, as we learn, and inflicted
several severe blows. He knocked Kneal
down and beat him over the head and in
the face and side till he was very badly
hurt. His face was smashed and pounded
I'll il was literally blackened, and his head
and side severely hurt Lansden was ar

At Peytonyille, in Williamson county,
there was quite lively and agreeable time
on Friday, the 9th inst. The weather
was almost as delightful as May day, and
the occasion was the dedication of Masonic
lodge room. There was one of the largest
crowds present that had assembled in Will
Hanson county since the war. The lodge
room is one of the most capacious, and will
be, when completed, one of the most
tastefully finished of any one to be found
in the State. We congratulate the Ma
sonic fraternity on having completed 3
room so well adapted to the meetings and
benevolent purposes of the order. In ad-
dition to the dedication of the lodge room,
the officers of Williamson chapter, Bethesda
and the Peytonville lodge, were installed,
they both being new lodges. The ceremo-
mics were very impressive, and were con-
Quoted by Mr. Ashley Thomas and Dr.
James P. Hannah of the Masonic fraternity.
After the ceremonies, the assemblage par
took of bounteous repast prepared for the
occasion by the members of the order.
After the dinner an appropriate address
was delivered by Rev. Mr. Cowan. The
occasion was a delightful one, and was
highly enjoyed by all who participated.
The Christmas holidays were, we learned,
enjoyed with pleasant social gatherings
and general merry -makings by our friends
of old Williamson. May they live pros
perously to enjoy many returns of the fes-
tive anniversary.

A NOBLE PAIR OF BROTHERS.


An IntermInasIe Negro Quarrel
Each Partner has she other Arrest
ed-In a had Way.
The Peace and liberty saloon On Cher
ry street, just north Of Cedar, is kept by
two negroes who went into partnership
iUst after the days Of Jubilee, to see if they
could not mske living without working
for it. For time ikings went on SWIM
mingly, and the negroes harmonized we'll
enough. There nS1.es are Kinear and
McGowan. Last EebsG&ry they had a
falling out, which, however, did not result
seriously, and they still continued TO grind
on in the Peace and Liberty. Last week,
however, they had another quarrel and
fight, and Kinear went TO Justice Mathews
office and swore out a warrant against Nc
Gowan, stating that he was in great fear
lest the latter should infliet upon him some
grieyous bodily harm. Indignant, and not
TO be outdone, McG0%an forthwith had
Kinear arrested for the February difficulty.
He was charged with shooting at him
(Aciowan) with intent 10 kill. The case
was tried before Justice Cassety, and it
was proved that X. had a pistol that he
had threatened to shoot, and that some
shooting was done. After hearing the
case the Justice held the accused in $1,000
bond for his appearance for further trial
before the next term of the Criminal
Court.

Arresting BOYS.

To the Editors of the Union and Dispatch.
Allow us to inquire by what fright the
Metropolitan Police interfere with and
arrest the boys for sliding on the snow on
High street? Is it a violation of law for
the children thus to amuse and enjoy them~
selves7 IL contrary 10 tdw, We submit but
if the police merely usurp the authority to
vex and annoy the children, we do think
they should be severely rebuked for such
usurpation. We witnessed these children
while enjoying themselves yesterday, and
their modification at being interrupted by
the police, and we are forced to say we saw
no harm in what the children were doing,
nor any good in the police interfering with
them. We hope the children will be I'M
molested ia their innocent and unofending
sports and pastimes. CITIZENS.

His Charms spring Trap Door-He
and Two Others Escape from She
WOrkhOuse.
Doctor Smith, whose exploits IN magic
and coniuration in healing diseases among
the darkies, and whose arrest and inear-
ceration in the workhouse We mentioned
on Sunday, seems to have applied his pow
ers very effectively on Saturday night.
His case was continued on Saturday, and
on Yesterday morning he was TO have been
brought out and tried. He was locked in
with two other prisoners, one of them
named Samuel Young, arrested for LARGE
nv, and the other, Henry Motley, for
beating his wife. The door to the inner
cell in which they were confined was fast
ened with a pair of handouts. The doc
tors magic did not forsake him, but seemed
stimulated 10 wonderful powers by the
prospect in the penitentiary that was pre-
scented TO his alarmed and quickened per
cepliOns. About the hour Of one o'clock
on Saturday night, the guards being asleep,
he commenced operations, which resulted
in a complete success. His magic and
strength, combined with that of the two
men with him, worked successfully upon
the DOOR The handouts gave way, the
bolts and bars were sprung, the iron shutter
swung back, and Smith and his compan-
ions were at liberty. Out into the street
they made their way and left in different
directions, the sleeping guards being un~
conscious of what was going on. Morning
came and the escape was discovered.
There is no telling at what point this won
derful magician will turn up, though it is
quite evident that he will not again show
himself in these parts.
