A LEX A NDRIA.

A TERRIBLE CASE The handsome bar
keeper at one of our hotels has unwittingly
Deeh me cause OF serious attempt to commit
terrible crime, by one of the waiting maids OF
he establishment. For some time she has felt
the tender emotion of love for him ripemng IN
her youthful bosom, and lit is said has not
Kept from him the fiattering secret. But he
like an honest fellow as he is, has gwen her no
encouragement, but coldly frowned upon her
afiectionate demonstrations. This morning
driven at last to the verge of madness, she made
desperate attempt TO kill him with a carving
knife. So furious was her frenzy that the
whole house was aroused, and it took seven Of
the clerks, porters and boarders to secure her
But for the young mans door being locked, she
would probably have accomplished her object
BODY IDEETIFIRD.-R is rumored that the
body which foated ashore near the mouth of
Passpatanzy creek a few days ago has been
Identified as that of George Shepard, who WAS
supposed to have been drowned while fishing off
Jones point, during the latter part of july and
on whose life the insurance policies found in the
possession of hIs brother Joseph now in jail
we're taken out. The description given by Mr..
-. -. y: meOielland, OF Chatterton, answers to
that Of Shepard: "He was % or 80 years of age,
about feet inches high, dark hair and sandy
whiskers." From the appearance of the body
1t had been floating in the river some time.
A PROBABLE IMPosToR.-A genteel looking
White woman, hailing from Washington ars-
peared at the station house this morning. She
ssid she was in guest Of employment. Officer
Arnold interested himself in her cause,
and after giving her breakfast, signifed his
willingness to assist her in getting something to
DO. When questioned as to the nature of the
work she was best qualified to perform, replied
that she made her living by writing and could
DO nothing else. The officer gave her Is cents
and put her on the train for Washington. She
was probably an impostor.
The WARRESToN CAMP MRETING.-An i'm
mense crowd of person attended the camp meet
ing at Warrenton Springs on Sunday, ami the
services were very interesting. Bishop Marvin,
OF Missouri, very distinguished divine and
preacher of rare powers, arrived Monday. On
Monday night ard Tuesday evening there were
heavy rains.-Sentinel, last erening.
