A professor at the observatory near Turin speaks of lt as a great ahewer of lnmi-| nous meteors heretofore unprecedented In Italy. Four observers at the college counted 33,400 tailing stars In six hours and a half, or from six o'clock to half-past twelve. This number represented very Imperfectly the actual ; numoer ol meteors, since from six to eight o'clock;* the hour ot maximum.flight, then were-In some regions.of the heavens so many as to-resemble .the flights of rockets. Tbe sheet of fieme was constant, and aa the trains descended in fiery columns and in sud? den gusts, only tho more conspicuous and larger bans could be neted. At times such as above described, 400 meteors could be counted every ' minute, and a 'half by the observers. There were seen numerous meteors with large and brilliant bands ol fire, very many globes or' dazzling light as large as the moon, bright'1 std transparent clouds, which, breaking up In a thousand shapes, exhibited themselves in groups and frays of the most beautiful and singular forms. . _ . -California J tia t;ce baa shown it-self so on reliable ot ?ate that Judge Lynch alone is re? lied upon lor protection by society Ir certain portions of the State. At Visa)ia, James Mc Crory, an assassin who had killed four or five persons In the vicinity, thc other day shot, fatally, Charles Allen, a man whom he bad claimed sa hlsiriehd. '-There was no apparent cause for this violence, and the wantonness ol the affair'enraged the cUlseus beyond en? durance. . McCrorv was pursued and cornered, but with a piste! In each hand held the J crowd at bay until a sheriff arrived, who, with the assistance of the bystanders, se- j cured .tbe desperado. Then began a strug? gle among' the -crowd to possess them? selves of the prisoner's person ior the In? fllction of Bammary - Justice, bu! several eheriffs, partly by dexterous management abd j-inly by persuasion, managed to lodged Mc Crory In Jail. Tbe force In Iront of the Jail rapidly swelled lo a large one, and they de? manded thai the prisoner should be produced or they would break the Jail lu.

Her career had been marked by continuous, premeditat? ed cruelty. When at school she knocked out the eye of a companion. Being a woman ot great beauty ehe became governess to the chil? dren of a wealthy man, who had made her bis mistress. "Her lover's wife having learned of the affair, the young tigress poisoned her. At Hamburg, soon after, her beattliul race at? tracted many admirers, but becoming reckless the police expelled her from the city, and she went to Brunswick, where an officer ot the Ducal arm fell in love with and married her. She poisoned him soon ai ter, and then turned up lu Hanover, where she married a merchant named W?chter, and avenged herself upon his parents, who opposed the match, by poison? ing them. Waohter soon deserted her, and Bhe married a widower named Wattman, with two children. These latter became the victims of their murderous step-mother, and this last crime exposed her. Her antece? dents were examined, her other victims ex? humed, and the evidence came lu copious enough to lix a dozen death penalties upon ber had lt been possible. Throughout ber confine? ment prior to ber death the wild beast in ber underwent no subjugation, and though chained to the wall she undertook to attack a clergyman who visited her with spiritual con? solation. Her beaut) i ol hair was out off be? fore taking ber to the scaffold, and she was arrayed in a low, blaok dresp, whloh left the neck exposed. She was then forced to kneel in front of the block before a crowd of wit? nesses; her bead was strapped to lt, and with one blow of the executioner's axe lt rolled Into the basket. ? A County (lorstlon . A correspondent writes to THE NEWS com? plaining of tho inconvenience to which tbe taxpayers in those portions of Gbarleston County remote from the city are s a bj ec ted by belog compelled to travel fifty or sixty miles to be assessed, and then to make tbe same trip a second time to pay their taxes. He says, furthermore, thaUt often happens that the tax office in Charleston is so crowded that the country taxpayer is obliged to wait Tor several days in the city before he can be attended to. The taxes are heavy enough, and it does sc-em hard that so serious an ad? ditional loss in time and money should thus be saddled upon any citizen. Nor is thia all. Our correspondent thinks that tho receipts from taxes in this county are considerably less than what they ought to be because the assessors and collectors are at a point BO far distant from a large portion ol' the property taxed as practically to be un? able to ascertain whether a full and just assessment hos been made or not. He sug? gests, as a remedy, - the division of tbe county into two or more tax districts, with the appointment of an assessor and collector in the same person for each district. This measure, he is confident, wonld swell the receipts from taxes in Charleston Connty, and, at the same time, relieve many citizens from what they feel to be a grievous hard? ship. The matter is worthy the considera? tion of the Legislature. Tbe Narrow-Gange Question and Cot? ton Freights. There are two Bides to th-? narrow-gauge question. Colonel Kennedy, a royal engi? neer, bas submitted a report to the Engush Go vern men t upon the working of the narrow gauge railroads in mum, m wuieu ne argues that while a narrow gauge will do for a com? munity which ships freight of small bulk, like ores or minerals, it will not suffice for an agricultural community shipping bulky freight. He says that the average bulk of a ton of freight on the leading roads io India is eighty cubic feet, wool and cotton enter? ing largely into the traffic. To stow eight tr-ns the car requires six hundred and forty cubic feet, or a load on the broad gauge not reaching over five feet above the platform, with its centre of gravity only five feet above the rails. But tbe same load could not be piled on the narrow car without making the load preposterously high. All this may be very trae!. Nobody supposes a narrow-gauge car will carry the same bulk of freight as a broad-gauge car of the samo length; but the advocates of the narrow gauge- claim that a tra?a of the narrow-gauge cars, hav? ing mach lesa dead weight to move, will carry a given quantity of freight fa; more economically than the same quantity could be carried on a read of the ordinary gauge. Moreover, ou the East India narrow-gauge roads an average load of cotton is not eight tons, bat 10,800 pounds; and cars used there for carrying this load sometimes weigh only 3000 poonda. The cotton cars used io this country, however, on narrow-gange roads are much heavier than those employed lo India for the same parp?se; but notwith? standing this they are said to show a great economy In transportation over those of tbe wider gauge, even in the case of uncom? pressed cotton, which bas more bulk io pro? portion to weight than any other class of freight. The common box car of the Sou th? em roads has a floor area 27 by 8 feet-216 square feet, weighs 18,500 pounds, and car? ries twenty-four bales, weighing 450 poundB each. The paying freight carried per car is 10,800 pounds, and the dead weight 18,500 pounds. The narrow gauge box car, suoh os ls in actual use on the Denver and Bio Grande Railroad, has a floor area of 162 square feet, weighs 8000 pounds, and will carry eighteen bales ot cotton weighing 8100 pounds. Thus it will be seen that the pro? portion of dead weight to be moved in car? rying this description of freight is only 444 pounds per bale OD the narrow gauge, against 770 pounds by the wider gauge in general use. The transportation of 270,000 poundB of cotton on the broad gauge would require twenty-five cars weighing 462,500 pounds; white on the narrow gauge thirty four cars, weighing only 272,000 pounds, will curry 275,400 pounds or cotton, a saving of dead weight in favor of the narrow gauge of ninety-five tons. These are facts claimed to have been demonstrated by actual expe? rience. "Bibllaratlng." The Colombia Union ot yesterday says : "The treasurer reports funds Coming In very "slowly as yet. Only three or lour of the "county treasurers have paid In small Instal? ments. Small payments on account of back 'salaries were made yesterday. Several of 'the county treasurers will not begin collect ling till about tbe 10th Instant, on account of %not being able to get the books from the au? ditor. It seems like old times again, and 'not a little exhilarating, to know that the 'vital principle ot commercial and political 'life la again in circulation at the State 'house."

Oar Keveline System. From an elaborate article in the New York Commercial and Financial Chronicle we obtain some interesting facts and Qgnres in regard to our revenue system, and the post and prospective reforms therein. Notwithstanding the heavy reductions of interior taxation, the aggregate yield to the treasury shows a remarkable degree of elas? ticity, as the following statistics demon? strate : In the fiscal year of 1863-64 there was derived from the source men tien ed $109,000,000; in 1864-65, $209,000,000; in 1865-66, $309,000,000; in 1866-67, $266, 000,000;in 1867-68, $191,000,000; in 1868-69, $158,000,000; in 1869-70, $184,000,000; in 1870-71, $143,000,000. Tbe official esti? mate for the present fiscal year is $125, 000,000-the actual receipts for the first ten months being $105,572,555, against $118, 069,356 in the same period last year. The falling off indicated is (lae to the repeal of the income tax and other imports which, during 1870-71, yielded in the neighborhood or $26,000,000. Th? rpAAicta from enstom dntles for the past five yes.ra run a8~T?nbWB'r-iu ioow, $179,000,000; In 186*7, $176,000,000; in 1868, $164,000,4300; in 1869, $180,000,000; in 1870, $194,000,000; in 1871, $206,270,408 By the act of May 1, 1872, tea and corleo du? ties to the amount off $15,893,846 annually, were repealed; and the act of June 1 made a redaction equivalent to over $15,000,000 per annum. It ls estimated that the reform tariff of 1872 will reduce the revenne at least $31,000,000; but it is yet too soon to ascertain the practical workings of the re? vised system. flUrcantile ftgencrj. rj??~l!HOCA?T^ ktFERENTf?
