The GdEefte OF Wednesday evening SAYS:
LAST NIGHT, about 1880 o'clock, when u
large crowd was collected at the post office
corner, awaiting election returns, n man,
who gave his name us Ben Jennings, drew
knife and nearly cut of a portion Of the
hand Of a young man named George Sulli-
van, with whom, II was said, he had had
previous difficulty. Tho slash, tho ringing
of the knife blade, which broke with the
stroke and fell upon the pavement, produced,
as may well be expected, great comlnotion,
and the assailant was hustled OF to the sta
ton house In hurry by some of the by
ISLANDERS. When brought out this morning
to bs examined by the Mayor, he stated that
he wanted his examination conducted by
Col. Lee, military superintendent Of the dis
trlct, but as the young man he had cut APP
pcared and expressed u Willingness to stay
proceedings, he was discharged upon the
payment OF costs. It Is said that the diff
Guilty grew out Of the fact Of Jennings hay
Ing been twitted by Sullivan with having
voted the Radical ticket, though he had
served In the Confederate army.
LAST EVENING, about I o'clock, two col
ored inmates Of the county jail, named An
derson aud Roy, who had been committed
about month ago for misdemeanors, while
the sheriff was absent In the county In obe-
dlencc to military orders, were observed by
the sherlif's wife, who was sitting at II
window overlooking the jail yard, to be
climbing over that part of the wall over
which so many have heretofore escaped from
that prison. They had access to the yard,
aud when seen were running up the side Of
the wall like cats. Their observer instantly
sprang to the window and screamed, when
Roy, who was the hindermost, fell back into
the yard as though he had been shot; but
Anderson, who had reached the top of the
wall, jumped over 1t Into the garden OF Jus
tlce Beach, and In doing so nearly allghted
upon the shoulders OF one of the Justices
sisters, who happened to be walking there,
and succeeded In making his escape, though
he was pursued by some OF the soldiers who
had been on duty here during the day, and
had been stationed at the jail.
TIE freight depot of the Orange, AleXan-
dria and Manassas railroad was removed
yesterday from the Brown Shed, where II
has been located for some years, to the site
of the passenger depot OF that road, corner
Of Duke and Henry streets.
AQUILLA HAISEs, formerly an alderman
OF Philadelphia, attempted to commit suicide
a few ago. His mind was disturbed Ia con-
sequence Of financial embarrassment, and,
In state of desperation, seized hold Of an
ordinary Ratchet and an Ice pick, and with
these implements actually chopped his head
almost TO fragments. Strange to say, he
was surviving at last accounts, much to the
surprise Of his physicians.
The Chicago excursionists, Judges Cation
Ogden, and others arrived at San Francisco
on Thursday.

CoAL-PRoDUcnG COUNTRIES OF EUROPE.
England stands first aud Germany second on
the list of European coal-produclng coun-
tries. In 1850 the English mines yielded
500, 100000 centners, (the eentner being
equal to 1i04 pounds those Of Belgium
100, 00O, 900, those Of France 10000, 900,
while not more than 10000 900 were gained
from the German coal fields. The total con-
sumption of Europe In that year has been
estimated at about ! 800, 100000. In 1867,
on the other hand, not less than 5000, OO0,-
900 centncrs were consumed, and the pro.
portion contributed by the various nations
had changed, England still stood first on
the list with 1000, 900, 600 centnors, but next
came Germany with 100000. OF these,
$4,000, 900 came from Saxony, and 100000
600 from Prussia. Germany Imports about
Il, 900 900, and exports about 10 600, 900 cent
ners OF coal. Russia, France, Switzerland,
Holland, and Belgium are her chief foreign
markets, but the German cannot compete
with English coal In the districts that border
on the North sea and the Baltic. Hamburg,
for instance, does not consume more than so

attributed TO the difficulties Of transport.

II was amoonless, staricss night when this
accident occurred. They rowod wildly, and
