MANCHESTER NEWS.

Manchester gave but little promise OF any
thing exciting or sensational Saturday until
an aYenger of the lamented Custer appeared
upon the streets late in the afternoon, armed
with "two-foot" navy revolver. He
swore that patience towards the red man
had ceased to be virtue; that Custer was q
soldier and a gentlemen, If he had chased
him at Sailors creek; and that he was for
shooting every "dam Iniun or 1njuneer"
he could find. He then proceeded with his
shooting-iron and club, and killed two
wooden cigar-store Indians, drank SIX
fre-water straights, scalped one unoi-
tending cat, and laid himself gently
to rest under Dinks's paternal care. He has
been for q short time under the delusion
that he has done lot OF business in the
avenging line, but awoke on yesterday feei'
ing that he was not half as good as second
rate Sioux Indian.

DEATH FROM A SNAKE BITE. Last Friday
a negro boy, while walking through the field
on the plantation of Mr.. Alexander Brown,
in st. Andrews parish, was attracted to a
tree by the barking Of a dog which had been
in pursuit of arabbit. Arriving at the tree,
expecting to get the rabbit from the hollow,
he was bitten by rattlesnake, which was
concealed therein. He immediately ran to
fellow-laborer who was ploughing in the
same field, and told him Of what had hap
pened. He did not seem inclined to credit
his statement, but in few seconds the boy
fell insensible to the ground. He was
brought to the city hospital, and died
twelve hours after from the effects Of the
bite. Two days after his death, his friends
cut down the tree, and coiled within the
hollow they found large rattlesnake, hay-
ing fourteen rattles and o utton.-CharleS-

HOLLYWOOD CEMETERY.-This beautiful
place OF burial is daily visited by large num-
bers OF people OF both sexes. Some 60
thither to njoy the melancholy pleasure OF
riding or walking through the various walks
and avenues, and to look at the many beau
tiful flowers, decorations, and tombstones;
others 90 for meditation, and to be near the
resting-places Of loved ones "gone before"
But Notwithstanding the sacredness and
solemnness Of the place, it is to be regretted
that there are great many men, old and
young, who frequent Hollywood, especially
on Sundays, and although ladies are con-
stantly passing in every direction, diyest
themselves OF coats, vests, hats, &C., and
wallow over the grass in full view OF all who
pass. This, no doubt, is very cooling and
pleasant recreation to those who indulge in
it, but is, at the same time, very disgusting
to ladies. Hollywood is about the nearest
and most pleasant resort from the heat and
turmoil of the city, and those in authority
should see that this unseemly conduct, SO
offensive to modesty and delicacy, be at once
stopped.

A DAUGHTER COMPELLED TO PUT. HER
MOTHER IN THE ALAsHoUsE.-One OF the
saddest cases OF "man's inhumanity to
man " occurred at the almshouse few days
since. An elderly lady, probably seventy
years Of age, was brought to that instltu-
ton by clergyman and her daughter to be
placed in the paupers' department. The
latter stated that the old lady was her
mother, and had been for the past twenty
wears member of the church on Seventh
street above Brown, and that as she was a
widow herself, with child, she could not
support her mother, more especially as the
only employment she could procure was IN
the country. The church had been paying
three dollars month towards the room
rent of the unfortunate mother, but the
supply having been cut oil, and not being
able to take her mother with her, she had
no other resource but to take the step she
did. From the appearance Of the greatly
to-be-pitied old lady her troubles on the
earth are nearly over.-Philadelphia Press.

A SINGULAR UN1oN.-A gentleman travel
ling in Scotland says in letter to afriend in
Virginia: "I will now tell you of two young
women who, disappointed in marriage, and
being intimate, they revealed their minds to
each other and resolved to live as man and
wife in some place where they were not
known. They drew lots to decide who
should be the man. The one on whom 1t
fell assumed the name OF James Han. They
then set out on their journey, and at last
came to Epping, leased a house there, and
kept an inn, each performing the duties be-
longing to his or her station. They gained
q good deal Of money, were well respected,
and lived together thirty-one years, until at
last the wife died, when the discovery was
made. James Han served in all the offices
Of the place, except constable, and was to
have been church-warden if the discovery
had not been made"

REPORTED MASSACRE CoNTRADIcTED.
CHICAGO, July 15.--A special from Bis
marck, dated yesterday, says:
"There is no truth whatever In the re-
port of the massacre OF two families by In
dians on the Northern Pacific road. Four
companies OF the Second infantry, under
Colonel Otis, arrived in Bismarck this morn
ing, and will proceed up the Yellowstone
about Monday. Two companies in addl-
ton are en- route via the lakes, and six rtd
the Missouri river, from Leavenworth.
The impression prevails at Bismarck that
fhe military authorities do not yet realize
the work that they have to do. The Indians
in the hostile camps are believed by good
Judges to number at least 10000, and, while
there are many women and children, nearly
nil OF these are effective in a campaign.
There are certainly 5000 to 1000 Indians
who can and will fight until subdueds
REiNFoRCEMENTs FOR TERRY.
There Is little uneasiness among citizens
east of the Missouri river, though they, as
well as most OF the military posts, are with
out sufficient protection should the Indians
determine to raid the locality.
Two companies Of regulars from the forts
about New York city will leave Chicago for
Bismarck Ola st. Paul tomorrow evening to
reinforce General Terry. Seventy-one re-
cruits from Carlisle barracks will also leave
to garrison Fort Abraham Lincoln and re-
lieve portion OF the Seventh cavalry.
General Sheridan says the troops wifi pro-
badly reach General Terry by the Goth in
slant.
