PULPIT ADvERTIsING.-Rev. D. Newamn'

marks:
II have occasion to repeat, substantially,
this morning what said unto you more than q
year ago, that do not think the pulpit SHOULD
he made an advertising medium. Almost

10 publish meetings. lectures. &c. 1t - con
Irary to my idea OF proprlety Tor TWO reasons
First, We assemble here and propose 10 oe,
vote an hour and half to divine service, anq
il ia hardly consistent with that object that
should spend fifteen minutes OF the time 10
reading notices: and, secondly, DO not WISH
80 roh fbe nress. While do not think much
is gained by reading notices from the pulpit,
] Do think the legitimate business OF the press
il injured. The press ought to be sustained.
Persons who wish to advertise should choose
that medium

A DESPERATE LOVER.
He Follows his Sweetheart Home and Gets
his Hepd Hrolxe,


We find the following narrative in the Louis Q
vile Courier Journal of Wednesday:-
Solomon Taylor, Joseph Hudson, and Louise
Pitman are the parties Hudson loved Louise
and was engaged to her, but this was many
months ago. Louise discarded him. Though
he knew he was discarded beyond remedy, it
was hard matter for him to reconcile himself
to the fact, and while endeayoring to do so he
continued to dog his sweetheart to and from
home and through the streets. 1t was q sad
case of discarded lover, and called for the SYM
pathies Of all the neighbors, which was willingly
supplied. In this way matters went on for some
time.
Last week Louise went to n ball and Hudson
followed her there. He danced in the same set
with her when he could get a partner and when
he could not stood over behind the stove and
watched her as she swung through the mazes,
the belle of the occasion. When the ball was
over she went home with Solomon Taylor, who
is one of the head BARRIERS at the Willard Hotel.
Hudson didn't object to this fellow SO much be-
cause he was one of the head BARRIERS as that he
had worked himself into Hudson's former place
in Louse's affections This enraged further the
fellow, and he did not allow Taylor to accom-
pany her in peace. So he followed them, keep
ing about square behind. When they arrived
home it was o'clock in the morning. but nev-
ertheless Louise asked Solomon in, and he went
in. This Hudson thought, looked suspicious,
and he went up to inquire into it, He raped
at the door, and gave his name. Louise said he
couldn't come in at that late hour He replied,
By this time Louise had let Solomon out the
back door, and he was making off through the
night when Hudson, running around the house,
grabbed HIM. They faced one anoJner, ana as
they gazed, their eyes glared through the dark
ness. Hudson remarked, "This is mighty
strange" when, he says, Solomon struck him in
the face and then on the head, with some heavy
substance, and ran. This was all he remembers.
1t was afterwards found that his arm was
broken, and that he had been severely cut upon
the head and face with razor.
This ended the matter. Louise knew nothing
of the bloody battle that ragged without until
next day. She was glad enough to have sue
ceeded in smuggling Solomon out so snugly,
and getting Hudson away from the front door
so easily, and slept well on her victory. On
the next day Hudson had his rival arrested for
cutting him with intent to kill, aud Solomon
was brought before the City Court yesterday,
when the facts were developed. number of
witnesses testified TO Solomon's good character,
among whom were Judge Bunch, Speaker of the
House of Representatives, General jackson,
General Chiffon, Mr.. Hagan, and j. Hop Price.
The Judge said that, personally, he had no
sympathy whatever with Hudson, and in fact,
no other man or lover who would dog his sweet
heart through the street, and act as a spy upon
her. He did not think the cutting was done mali
ciously, and held the defendant to answer
misdemeanor. The parties are all negroes

Drunken Mans Head smashed-ThrlllIng
Details.
The Newburg CN. Y.) Journal has the follow
ing;-
At half-past O'clock Monday night an un-
known man, in attempting to go from the
ferryboat Onalaska to the bridge on the east
side of the river before the boat had stopped,
fell between the boat and the bridge, and had
his head horribly crushed, SO that several great
gaps were opened in his skull, out of which the
brains poured. The man came aboard the boat
on the Newburg side, and was very drunk
just before the boat reached the entrance to the
slip on the Fishkill side he in his drunken con-
fusion, attempted to walk off the west end Of
the boat, supposing that he was going ashore.
The hands of the Onalaska drew him back
inside the chains, and he was told to stay there
until the boat should land. They then lost sight
of him until they were making fast the boat TO
the bridge. He had walked off between the
boat and the bridge, and they caught glimpse
of him for moment as he seized the bridge
with his hands to save himself from dropping
into the water. Then, as the boat touched the
bridge came the horrible sound of the crushing
| of the skull and one of the arms and the poor
| drunken wretch ceased to live. The order to
reverse the engine was promptly given, and the
boat was backed, but the Intended relief o.
course came too late. The corpse, covered with
J brains and blood, fell into the water. The head
was nattened by the force OF the concusslon
The corpse was permitted to remain In th'
water, but was secured by rope.
