LONDON, February ga man was shot
in the street to-day and badly, if not
fatally, wounded. The assassin was in
stantly arrested, and gave his name as Jim
NEEDLES. From his declaration it seems
he mistoOk Chatterton for James Bud, the
milkman, the witness for the Clerkenwell
explosion, who, OF the examination of the
prisoners before the Police Court, had
identified one of them as the person who
fired the fuse. The said NEEDLES is half.
witted fellow, and the belief is general that
he is the tool of otherparties, who prompted
him to commit the deed. The pistol shot
took effect in the throat of Chatterton,
where it made an ugly wound. Chatterton
still lives, but his recovery is doubtful.

it should be distinguished from the arrest
Of Irishmen who come over here from the

creating revolt.
Cork, February 5.-Early this morning
body of men, supposed to be Fenians,
were seen near Castle Macroom, about
twenty miles west of this city. They ap-
peared to be preparing to make an attack
upon the castle, and the authorities Of the
town of Macroom were notified Of the
danger. A strong force of police was soon
ordered to the ground, and as soon as they
appeared the Fenians dispersed in all
directions.

s WEST v 1RG1NfA'S SHARE or THE PUBIC
DEBr.-In the Wheeling Legislature on
Monday q resolution was offered by Mr..
Blair inquiring into the expediency OF
reporting bill to provide for the payment
of West Virginia's share of the debt of
Virginia contracted before the division of
the State. -
Mr.. B. explained that in tho formation
Of this State We committed ourselves to
The payment of. our share Of the debt,
which amounts to some $1,000, 600, but as
yet we have taken no steps for the crea-
ton Of a sinking fund for this purpose.
tie did not believe that we would have
much to pay but he thought it wisdom to
propose to pay our share, whatever it
might be. he believed that we could now
make arrangements to pay our quota at
probably not more than one-half what it
would cost as If we put the matter of
until the payment has to be made. The
bonds Of Virginia can now be purchased
at about thirty-four to forty cents on the
dollar by the commissioners proposed by
bis bill. He is extremely anxious that no
debt be allowed to accumulate upon the
shoulders of the people of this State with
out making necessary arrangements to pay
it when the time for payment shall come.
The people are now grooming under an OPP
pressive and increasing burden Of taxa
ton, and they have their eyes upon us,
and they demand that the load shall be
lightened.
Mr.. Ferguson said that joint resolu-
ton was passed last winter that this State
would do nothing in this matter until the
Supreme Court had passed upon the case
then pending between Virginia and West
Virginia in regard to the counties of JEFF
ferson and Berkeley. No decision has yet
been reached by the Supreme Court. He
was opposed to action in the premises.
Virginia is not now in condition to be
treated with on the subject, at any rate.
He agreed that the people of this State
are grooming under load Of taxation, and
that their eyes are upon us; but he does
not believe it wisdom to levy taxes upon
the people now for purposes that we may
never use them. He does not believe il
buying Virginia bonds; it may prove bad
investment he believes that these bonds
may yet command less price than they
now do. Again, we may not owe any
thing, and we are in no condition to enter
into bond speculation at this time. lie
would therefore move to lay the resolution
on the table. Adopted.

THE DICTATORSHIP BILL Washington,
February 3.-Speaking few days ago, in
private conversation, of the bill to estab-
ljsh 4 military dictatorship over one-third
Of the Union, q Republican member, who
had voted for it in the House of Represen-
tativcs, said that "if the vote had been
taken by ballot it would have been beaten
Two 10 one" This confession is valuable
as an evidence of the rigor of party des-
Yolsm, never more apparent than now,
and never more injurious to the best in
tcrcsts Of the country. The author of it.,
Ike many others who gave their reluctant
assent to the passage of the bill, depre-
Gated the extremes to which the Republi-
can party in Congress has been tending.
Yet" said be, "what can I or others
like me do? We can't go over to the Cop
perheads, so we must stay with the Radi-
Gals, as choice of evils. "-C Correspondence
Of Nel0 York Times.

j,ious how on earth body hitherto &C
credited sane had decided on such step |?
WELL" said he, sit won't do any harm.
!! won't pass the Senate. We didn't in
tend it should. All we wanted was to
SHOW these fellows down South what we
might do if they didn't behave themselves ;
and we wanted to warn Hancock and
Audy Johnson that they must keep
straight" The same day Senator Wilson
,ajd to friend that he "guessed the pas
sage OF the bill through the House would
do all that was wanted, and it could hang
