a E,astardly Act.

About 1 O'Clock yesterday morning
an unknown person fred pistol shot
through a bedroom window in the resi-
dence of John Connery. The room was
occupied by Mr.. and Mrs. Connery,
and the ball struck the bed clothing,
passing through a counterpart and two
blankets. The bullet, which was found
in the bed, is in the possession Of Mr..
Connery. The Connery family know
Ct no enemy who would be guilty of
midnight assassination. The attempted
crime is dastardly one, and the police
should spare no pains to ferret out the
scoundrel who fired the shot. 1t is
horrible to contemplate that there is a
thing il human form, living in our
midst that would be guilty Of SO black
crime.

4 Tale OF Royalty.

NJ. Elerian Pharaoh tells an amusing
anecdote about King Humbert of Italy,
who is as fond of shooting as was his
royal father, Victor Emanuel From
time to time King Uumbert, oblivious
Of royal customs and court etiquette,
separates himself from his suite, and
gun in hand goes out in search Of game,
accompanied by his two favorite dogs
During one of his excursions he WAS met
miration at the havoc the King had
made among a convey of partridgeS.
He did not know the monarch, and see
lug him in the dress of an rdnary
sportsman could not recognize him. He
went up to him, complimented him on
his SIX i'll with his gun, and then told
him that if he would come to his farm
the following morning at daybreak and
Kill a fox which had made several raids
on his hen roest he would not mind
giving him couple Of francs for his
trouble.
King Humbert kept the appointment,
and was fortunate enough to kill the
fox. The delighted peasant welcomed
him on his return, called his wife and
children out, and insisted on the King
sharing their breakfast with them. At
the end of the repast the peasant took
leave Of his visitor, pressed il two franc
piece in his hand, which the King tossed
up in the air and caught, declaring
that it was the first money he had ever
earned, Two days afterward the peas
ant was surprised to see an officer in
uniform ride up in an open carriage
with presents from the King to his
wife and children. He then learned to
whom he owed his obligation, and was
confused at the familiar manner in
which he had hobnobbed with royalty.

bering more than forty people, will ap-

Cable advices from soham, in Egypt, are to the

the moon has been supposed 10 be without Hn at

fraction of the density OF that of tho earth, the
light from star in passing through it would be
bent to one side. No such phenomenon has been
observed, The earths atmosphere refracts ray
angle Of 900 seconds, while the refractiyc power
of The moons atmosphere, If IL has any, Is tsti-
mated to be certainly less than hall second. The
observation, therefore. by the French spectrOscop

A SPECIAL dispatch to the Erening Star,
dated at Richmond, Va, May %, says:

Upon invitation OF Congressman DezendorE a
number of Republicans from different parts of
this State, including General w. @. Wickham and
other leading members of the party, held a con-
ference here to-day. Measures We're adopted for
assembling of the Republican State Central Com
miteo in this city on the Sth of June next for the
purpose Of periecting the organization Of the
party, and with view Of making an effort at the
next election TO Increase the Republican repre-
sentation in Congress. Among those present were
several who supported the coalition movement in
Virginia last fall.
The Republican State Central Commit
tee of Virginia is not assembling now-a-
days ut the suggestion Of Messrs. Dezen-
dorf and Wickham. The above para
graph doubtless refers TO the rump of the
rump committee, appointed at the rump
convention last summer, after the Re-
publican State convention had indorsed
tho coalition and appointed the State
Central Committee for the ensuing year,
Wickham and Dezendorf have no more
TO do with the Republican State Central
Committee of Virginia than the Pharaohs
had TO do with the Promised Land.
