SAD AFFArR.-Mrs. Henry Gray, wife
OF the former Superintendent of the
Western Railroad, died on Wednesday
last at Springfield, Mass, from injuries
received in singular and frightful way
on the previous Saturday. On that day
she accompanied her husband to the
barn to see their COW with its offspring.
The COW jumped toward her master, who
warded her off, when she quickly turned,
caught Mrs. Gray on her horns, and
threw her down with such force as to
break her collar bone and cause severe
internal injuries, from which she died as
above stated. She was 55 years old and
highly respected.

"PARIs BY SUNLIGHT AND GAsLIGHr. "
A work descriptive of the Mysteries
and Miseries, the Virtues, Vices, Splen.
doris and Grimes of the City of Paris.
By James D. McCabe, Jr., National
Publishing Co., Boston.
The unusual facilities possessed by our
first-class Subscription Book Publishers
have enabled them to furnish the public
with many works of great interest and
value; but the most powerful and at
tractive work of this kind is the book
now before us. 1t is simply the City of
Paris photographed by the authors pen
and the artists pencil. 1t is magnificent
ly illustrated, and is issued in the very
best style. 1t not only abounds in solid
and useful information, but faithfully re-
produces the most startling sensations of
the gayest city In the world. 1t tells US
how the beauty and splendor of the
bright city have been purchased at
frlghtful cost of misery and suffering =
how virtue and vice 90 arm-in-arm. and
now the latter is undermining all the
sweet courtesies of social life; and how
most fearful crimes are committed and
concealed. 1t tells us of high life and
low life; of palaces and novels; of the
Emperors family and the work
household. We mingle freely in the
most magnificent and dissipated pleas
ures, and drop an involuntary tear into
the common bitches" where the POOR
sewing girl is laid to rest. All that has
made Paris the most beautiful and at
tractlve as well as the gayest and wick
eldest city in the world, unite to make
this book the most interesting we have
seen for many a day. The author, writ
ing OF what he has seen and experienced
has evidently sought to make his volume
not only the most powerful and fascinat-
ing sensational work of the day, but al
SO book which shall hold a place in
every mans library as an authority up-
on the subjects whereof it treats. The
book is magnifcently illustrated with
100 line engravings, by the leading ar
lists of France :-Dore, Therond and
Others whose names amply attest the
character of the work. 1t is comprised
ID one large volume of over 800 pages
and sold only by subscription.

A TERRIBLE MIsTAKE.-Near Hor.
nerville, Ky, recently four persons GU,
OF family of five were poisoned by eat.
ing pie crust in which arsenic had been
used by mistake for soda. Mr.. Hartzou
had procured the arsenic to poison rats
and put it into the cupboard near a sim
liar bottle containing soda. Mrs. H.
took it by mistake for the soda in max
ing pie-crust, and the same evening the
whole family, except one child who han.
pened to be absent, partook of the psis-

one OF them was dead. Their sufierincs
were dreadful, the poison taking effect

from her children made her distracted
and she must hear from her husband,
Mr. Crone endeavored to soothe her bv
telling her that Mr.. Marsh had probably
gone to some foreign country, and she
might possibly soon hear from him. Mr..
Crone was one of the parties who con-
veyed Mrs. Marsh to prison, and on the
way over she importuned him by name
not to place her with lewd women. She
asked many questions as to the condition
OF ner children, particularly of her eld-
est son; and on being told that he was
dead became almost frantic with grief
On being placed in the cell she fell on
her knees and commenced praying for
her children and mother. When Mr.
Crone was about to leave, she rose for
moment and begged him to call and see
her this morning, and again fell on her
knees and resumed her prayers. While
at the station-house she was seated in a
s1ation-house she was seated in corner

THRILLING EXHIBITION BY AN IN
SANE WoMAN.-On the afternoon of the
l4th inst, in Jacksonville, ILL.,, most
exciting scene was witnessed at the in.
sane hospital. An insane wo man in
some way escaped from the apartment in
which she had been confined, rushed IN
the stairway, leaped upon the roof, and
dashed away to the end of the building,
swung herself over the edge of the roof
and dropped to cornice six or eight
feet below Upon this cornice, foot
vide, and seventy-fve feet above the
ground, the wild maniac walked back
and forth for quarter of an hour. Men
rushed to the roof and passed a rope to
her, and tried to persuade her to fassen
it about her body, but in vain. Below
beds were brought and placed to break
the fall should she leap from her perilous
position. After remaining on the cor
nice fifteen minutes, seemingly uneon-
sclous of all danger, she swung off, and
holding by the cornice until her feet
touched cap of the fifth story window.
she let go the cornice, and, wonderful to
relate, alighted erect and steady upon
the cap, which was but a foot wide and
four feet long. There, at that fearful
and dizzy hight, she stood gazing about
for quarter of an hour. She then seiz-
ed firmly the rope lowered to her, and
leaped into the air. The strong arms
above gradually lowered her, and when
she was about thirty feet from the grOand
she released her hold and fell upon the
beds below, and, although stunned, vas
taken up uninjured.

A DEFEAT OF THE GREAT VIcTo-
RIoUs.- The militant medical major
Mary Walker, after conquering career
throughout the habitable portions of the
Union, has been compelled to ignomini-
GUS retreat by an uncouth, untutored
Texan savage. And this is how it came
to pass: The invading body, (meaning
thereby the Amazonian host aforesaid
entered and established its seat of war
in the smoking-car of a certain train
Thus quartered in the enemy's territory,
a reconnaissance detected non-combat-
ant gentleman enjoying his cigar few
seals of, unconscious of the hostile pres
ence. A summons to surrender uncon-
ditionally not being by him Instantly
needed, sudden sortie effected his for
chile capture, his cigar being seized and
thrown out of the window. Flushed with
this successful skirmish, the victorious
corps again intrenched itself behind its
breastworks, and watched the progress
of events. But soon the smoke of an
other battle arose from the distant pipe
OF the of the wild Texan ranger whom
fate had destined to overthrow the proud
usurper. To collect all her forces and
make an assault in mass was for the
Walker the work of moment but
alas! Instead Of yielding at discretion,
the attacked party engaged in open fight.
For brief time the battle ragged hotly
in front, in flank, in rear: the flying
fragments of whisker, chignon, neck
cloth and ribbon darkening the startled
air. but at last victory perched upon
the native banner, and the inv ader. was
forced to retire in disorder to another
car. Thus do We sadly chronicle the
disastrous result Of the first actual en-
gagement in the campaign of woman's
rights.
