The Small Pox In Gardiner.

There are now two cases of varioloid in
Gardiner, both of which are doing well. The
small pox was brought to the city from Boston
by Mrs. Montague, who died of the disease.
Miss Hattie Starbird, a young lady about Is
wears of age, living next door to Mrs. Mon
tagues, on Water street, was soon after tax
en- sick, and it was supposed that she had the
typhoid fever. She is an interesting girl,
much beloved by her companions and school
mates, who have been often in the house to
see her and attend to her wants during her
illness. The other day there appeared in the
case of the young lady the unmistakable evil
dences of the varioloid, and she is now quite
sick with the disease; and, as a consequence,
the children and friends who have recently

A WASHINGTON LADY SHOT
HER LOVER DOES THE SHOOTING
WHISKY THE CAUSE
NO ARREST YET MADE

WASHINGTON, February 19.-Last
night, about twelve O'Clock, Mr.. Benner,
employed in the coast survey. shot his la
dy-love, Miss Susie Dankworth. The ball,
a large sized one, took effect in the right
side, and passed out in front, inaicting, it
IS thought, mortal wound.
Benner's addresses had been rejected by
Miss Dankworth, and when he called last
night she declined admitting HIM. Benner
then begged her to come to the window,
which she did with reluctance. As she
made her appearance Benner fred at her
with the above effect. Miss Dankworth
is an estimable young lady, twenty years
of age, and considered one of the
most beautiful women in Washington.
Benner has not yet been arrested nor is
there any desire for such procedure
evinced on the part of the Dankworths.
Benner's infamous crime is imputed by
charitable people to the temporary insanity
dodge or whisky on the brain.

No WATER.-The wall for water, now
that we have none, which goes up from all
quarters of the city, is truly distressing,
and completely disarms all criticism upon
the habits of our citizens. Our people are
dry, and no mistakenly because they
have no water to drink.
The conduct of the authorities in failing
to notify the citizens of the impending dam
ger to the supply Of water is severely and
justly criticised. Business houses, house
keepers, and others have been subjected to
considerable expense, as we'll as incon-
venience. Will the city, which has collect
ed water rents in advance, make any reduc-
ton in future bills to cover the outlay and
inconvenience resulting to the public?
The city of Richmond is too large and
her interests too important to be subjected
to those annual Interruptions, and we
trust the people will loudly demand better
and enlarged public facilities for the prose-
cution of business and for the convenience
of their families.
