THE NEWS.

The Graphic" balloon failed to start,
according to programme, on the 10th instant
the material used for its construction being de-
fectivc. Professor Wise made some unpleas-
ant disclosures, that go to show that the
"Graphic" proprictors were more eager to
make money out of the affair than to carry
out what they had proposed. The monster
affair was, however, repaired and another
attempt made to initiate it, when it burst.
This event will probably put stop to the
great project of crossing the Atlantic in n
balloon, for time at least
The yellow fever is ravaging Shreveport,
Louisiana.
The Agricultural Department at Wash
ington reports that the wheat crop, though
short in some parts of the country, is offset
by extraordinary crops in others. The yield
is placed at two hundred and fifty million
bushels. The product in Minnesota for the
year will the unprecedented aggregate of
thirty million bushels. The crop for Mary.
land is fair average. The cotton crop will
also be large one.
George p. Rcmsburg, son of the super
intendent of Monte Vue Hospital, at Frcdcr.
ick, Md, was crushed to death by the cars, at
Frederick Junction Sunday night.
-Tclegrams concerning the yellow fever
at Shreveport Louisiana, state that no re-
port of the afiliction can possibly cxagger-
ate the actual condition of the place. From
twenty to thirty persons are dying each day,
many, no doubt, actually from want of suf
flcient attention by experienced nurses and
physicians The fever has also reached
Memphis, Tennessee, where many people have
died with it.

Another Shocking Murder in Baltimor,

Another Shocking Murder In Baltimore.
Our metropolis of Maryland seems of late to
rival some Of her sister cities in the freuuent
occurrence of horrible murders in her midst
1t would seem that the recent executions of
murderers there has increased rather than d.
minished the fearful crime. The case this time
is that of a widow, named Mary Callaghan,
who occupied the third story of "A house on
Lexington street, between Green and Paca
strccts-a man named Charles Morrison oc-
cupying the fourth story
On Wednesday afternoon of last week the
parties named became involved in an alterca-
ton while in the room of a Mrs. Perks, who,
occupied the second story-Morrison having
ordered Mrs. Calaghan not to come in, and
slammed the door in her face. The woman
went away, but soon returned with kettle
of water which she threw in Morrisons face,
when he retaliatcd by kicking her in the alb
domen with such severity as to cause her
death on Sunday morning. Both the parties
were in the habit of getting drunk sometimes,
though there appeared to be no proof that
they were in that cc~dition at the time the
fatal ARRAY occurred. Morrison made his
escape, and has not yet been arrested.

beautiful grove on the farm of Mr. John

Complete justice was done to the latter, as
might be supposed-the ladies of that neigh

Interesting temperance Meeting al
BIRntOn's Chapel,

70 he Editors Of the Columbia Herald;
Last Saturday was the day appointed
and announced for the Temperance
meeting at Blanton's Chapel. The
morning was cool and frosty; the
sky was clear and bright, and the whole
of nature seem to have prepared for the
occasion. The crowd assembled by IL
o'clock, and the Blanton's Chapel, Mt.
Olivet and Smyrna Lodges gathered in
the school house near the church, and
marched from thence to the church,
headed by Rev. L. J. Dixon, Hugh L,
Gordon, Joseph 1. Sanders, and others.
The three lodges numbered about two
hundred. The three lodges sang beau
titul temperance song, which made the
air melOdiOus with the different voices.
Rev. T. J. Dixon read select and app
propriate portion of the Bible and offer
ed an earnest prayer for the temperance
cause. Hugh Il. Gordon, Esq, was then
introduced, who interested the crowd
for about an hour with very beautiful,
sensible address. Robert NJ. Mckay,
Esq, was then called upon to address
the audience, who did so for about half
an hour. Dinner was then announced
and after the lodges had marched out
everybody was invited to it. We think
we did the dinner justice that day, but

Immigrants 10 Lawrence County

Mr.. A. Nelson, proprietor OF the eco
lumbia HOTEL" at the Depot, informs us
that family recently arrived here from
Calpay's Bay, Canada West, on their
way to Henryville, Lawrence county,
for the purpose of buying land and set
thing. The family consists of Antoine
Shutkovesky, wife, daughter aged %
years, and two sons, aged, respectively,
% and % years. Judging from the pene
manship of one of the sons, we suppose
the family are intelligent. The old gen.
tleman still has two sons in Canada
who expect to como out also, if their
father is pleased. 1t is thought that
other families will also come. This
family have been farmers for about ten
wears,
