The BROOKLYN ASSASSIN HAS Ills CoUN-
TERpART IN CmARLEsTowN.- For some
weeks the papers of New York and other
places have published various accounts Of
a fellow who delights in marring the facial
beauty Of ladies in Brooklyn or commit
ting other assaults with knife, and fee
ing the moment he has inflicted q wound.
Whittier this is mythical or not, a case
occurred in Charlestown last week which
is too real for the personal comfort of the
victim, single lady who has lived in one
family as domestic for fourteen years.
She came to Boston to call on some friends
on Tuesday evening and returned to
Charestown in one of the red line coaches
in the vacinity of ten o'clock. She had
not proceeded far from the end Of the
route on Main street, toward her home on
Bunker Hill street, before she was assault.
ed by man whom she cannot describe
He caught her by the shoulder, pulled
her about, and stabbed her in the arm,
cutting it badly above the elbow, and
then struck at her side with his knife,
but her corsets partially protected her, so
that the wound was only slight, although
deep enough to cause considerable bleed
ing. She screamed and started to run,
when her assailant fed. She fell down,
when man came out Of liquor saloon,
offering to aid her, but she declined his
assistance, and soon policeman arrived
and helped her home. As she has never
had trouble of any kind with any ne,she
thinks it a case of mistaken identity, but
the most probable theory is that the fellow
who assaulted her had no especial motive
except to follow vicious inclination.

CONCENTRATED IMpuDENcE - GoING
THROUGH A POLICE STATION TO COMMIT A
ROBBERY. One Of the coolest aud most
impudent acts of robbery on record was
perpetrated at Hyde Park, recently.
Early in the evening four "onery" look
ing fellows, rather seedy looking in their
garments and having generally an impe-
cunious aspect, applied at the police sta
ton for lodgings. Their names and des-
cription were registered as is customary,
each was given supper aud all were put
into an apartment with wooden walls
which is used for the accommodation OF
CRAMPS and transient, but innocent
visitors. One of the party had a bundle
under his arm, but as the parties were
not under arrest there was no thought Of
searching them, so into the cell went the
bundle. Its use was not made apparent
until this morning, when the proprietor
of a dry goods store in the same building
as the police quarters came into the lat
ter and reported that his place had been
robbed of undershirts, drawers, money
&C., to the amount of about SIS. On
investigation it was observed that one Of
the walls Of the room in which the "lodg-
ers" had been locked was partition sep.
aratng the police station from the store
"a fact of which the dodgers" were un.
doubtedly aware before they went in
The bundle, it appeared, contained tools
with which the dodgers had made hole
through the partition and through which
they had entered into the store After
helping themselves to whatever they want
ee, they leisurely walked out of the store
through the front door, leaving theil
tools bedind.

TIE SAN DOMINGO REPORT. 1t is sta
ted that Mr.. Wade's report on San Do
mingo closes with the remark that "to
embrace this opportunity to plant our
Republican Institutions and establish
civil liberty and American civilization
upon that beautiful and productive island,
thus laying the groundwork of a great,
free and prosperous State. would add an
other to the ACHIEVEMENTS Of our Republic
worthy to rank with the great events of
our history, and would be equally bene-
fetal to the people of both countries. "
Mr.. Howe fully comedies Mr.. White
objects to the above words, as he thinks
the duty of the Commission is to report
facts and not give opinions. But Mr..
Wade is firm on the point, and Mr..
White will probably sign the report after
he has been permitted to insert some adj
ditional historical facts. The idea Of
three separate reports has been given up
The report will be about four ordinary
newspaper columns in length.
A correspondent at Key West says
that Mr.. Wade calls Cabral "chicken
thief" and says it was unnecessary to sec
him that it makes no difference if he i,
opposed to annexation. Mr.. Howe. was
in favor of delaying the expedition al
Port-au-Prince until Cabral could be
seen. Gen. Baez filed claim with the
Commission for personal indemnity o.
nearly 100000, for destruction of prop
erty, &C., which he insists must be paid
if annexation occurs. He is willing tC
accept the old treaty. The Commission
ers will all visit Washington as soon al
they return. The expenses of the expe
dition thus far are about $4,000, exclu
sive of ship expenses.

THE NEW GOVERNMENT LoAN-We
publish elsewhere an important circular
Of the new government loan.-It is
pretty good sign for it that the banks
are already looking upon the new five
per cent. bonds as on the whole the best
form of government securities for their
holding as guaranty for their circulation
A bank at Springfield, Mass, last Fri
day, subscribed or over half a million
and the Brandon National Bank sub,
scribed for one hundred and fifty thou
sand dollars on the same day, as substi-
tute for all other government bonds they
have been holding. As these bonds are
relieved from taxation, the rate of inter-
est though but five per cent. really
amounts to over six per cent and besides
this the interest is payable quarterly in
stead of semi-annually, which is another
advantage. They are therefore a good
investment for anybody. The new loan
has started off successfully and thus the
great work of rcfunding the national debt
has begun.

MISTAKEN Policy. The action Of the
Senate in refusing to remove the duty on
coal and salt may have been justifable
on principles governing caucus action, but
cannot be defended from any other stand
point. The people desire to have these
articles Of prime necessity admitted duty
free in order that few rich monopolists
may not longer control the market and
put up when it suits their convenience ;
and they feel that to stave off a measure
of so much Importance is to cooperate
with oppression and monopoly. To re-
move the duties would not materially
affect the revenues, while the advantages
to the people would be felt at once.
Senators will find it necessary to have
good and valid reasons for their action
on this matter when they return to their
constituents.

CoRNERED. Connecticut Democrats
of late have been vociierousy claiming
that they were never particularly opposed
to negro suffrage, and that nobody should
repudiate them at this late day on that
account. The Republican newspapers
of the State, however, have succeeded in
making little discovery, which almost
looks as if it would have been just as well
for the unterrified to have kept rather
quieter upon the subject. 1t seems that
no later back than 1865, the Democratic
Central Committee of the State issued an
unusually distinct declaration of princi-
pies in regard to the voting of colored
men, denouncing it in the most unmeas-
ured terms, and the Republican editors,
having found out this little document,
are giving it the benefit of most bene-
fetal extent of publication.
