Sodden Death ?On Suuday morning, Mr. C. F. Black, clerk in the Central Railroad office, was found dead in his bed in Savannah. Mr. Black was a native of Charleston, S.

[Charleston News. Thomas B. Newman, a miser, seventy three years ol', reported to be worth $250,000, owning some of the most va? luable real estate in the business locali? ties of Buffalo, and who has lived in a mean hovel for the last thirty-seven years, surrounded by filth and covered with vermin, was taken to the hospital a few days since, and died on the 5th. He has no relatives in that city. Among other benefits introduced by Chinese immigration is the leprosy. Cases are frequently seen upou the wharves and other public places in San Francisco, and fears of the disease spreading are generally entertained. The disease is known to exist on the Baha? mas and other West Iudia Islands, but this is the first time it ever made its ap? pearance on the Americau continent. A Manning correspondent of the Charleston News contradicts the bloody affair, reported by tho Sumtur News, bo tweon Major C. S.

They tip glasio, drink boartily and plodge their constituents that tho church property shall bo confiscated to the use of the State. When that source of re venuo is gone, 'twould be hard to say what Italy ia to livo on. Tho ColumbuB Sun says: It is custom? ary with Judge Johnson to ask prisoners who are not provided with counsel, what lawyer they will have. At the laat Tay? lor Court this quoation was propounded to a negro, who answered: "I ain't ticklar, 'boBs,' just hand over two of your best." He got ono. SThe Courier-Journal Bays: "A saucy young widow, out West, said to a clerical friend, who asked her condolingly how ; long her lamented had boon dead, '1 am in tbe honeymoon of my widowhood.' That widow will bo boasting some day about colebratiug a golden funeral." A Texas Justice of the Peace rofused to fine a man for kissing a girl against her will, because when tho lass came into court be was obliged to hold on to the arm of his chair to keep from kissing her himself. A colony of Friends, some 30.000 in number, propose to settle in Western Texas. Hobbobs of a Trip A gross the Ocean with 1,800 on Board.?Fifty-oi got ^Jor? dan colonists, including mon, women and children, reaently arrived in Leba? non, in KeDtOoooty, Delaware, to whioh plaoe they were brought by John S. Ool lins, an extensive fruit grower and oan ner, to be employed in tho oannery of Oollius & Go. The Dover Delawarean says: Owing the hardships they experienced while crossing the oceau, a great deal of siokneas has prevailed among - them, forty-five of the fifty-eight having been very sick since their arrival in this coun? try.' At first the children were taken with the scarlet fever, and ten of the eighteen afflicted with this disease have died. The measles also -spread among them, and at tbo last small-pox broke out, and up to this writing there have been seventeen oases of the disease. They crossed tbe ocean in the steamer Egypt, of the National line, running from Liverpool to New York, and from their account (Us officers of tho ship must surely be devils in human shape. There were 1,900 passengers on board. From the first they were put od short allowance of water. Tho meat they Tore compelled to cat, they say, was rotten aud the potatoes were all diseased. Their soup was made from the water used to boil the potatoes. The bread was hard ship-biscuits, aud as they wero not allowed fresh water with which to soak them, tho little ohildren could not eat them, and suffered for food. They were kept beneath decks, and those that were well were compelled to be confined with the sick. The officers of the ship treated them more like beasts than hu? man beings. A Mrs. Zell was taken with small-pox while ou board, and tho disease was at its height when the ship passed quarautino at New York. On arriving at Lebanon, Collins & Co. gave the immigrants possession of a largo house, aud did everything in their power for thoir comfort, and until Biokuess and death came upon them, they seemed pleased with tbo prospect beforo them. Now the women moan and cry continual? ly over their sufferings. Nearly alt have lost a child or some de r friend. On ac? count of the small-pox they have been moved into shanties built at Mifflin'a woods, about a mile and a half from any house. Collins & Co. are doing all they can to relieve their Bufferings, but more help is badly needed. The Arlington Estate.?The Wash? ington Republican corrects a Louisville contemporary, who,.it says, falls into an error when it says that the "property (Arlington) was forfeited to the Govern? ment by the act of General Lee," in go? ing into the Confederate service. It is true, that in a technical and legal sense, Arlington did not so become the property of tbe United States Government, as under our Constitution and laws, no real estate can be confiscated in perpetuity or iu fee, but only during the lifetime of the owner, aud then upon trial and pro? per decree of a court. The Government, however, early took possession of the Arlington property, and then availed of tbe discreditable dodge of setting it up I and selling it (or unpaid Federal taxes, thus to get a tax title on which to hold it in perpetuity. All subsequent offers to redeem it iu behalf of its real owner, >Mrs. Lee, have been disregarded, and . thus this dear home of her childhood is Dot only withheld from a now deorepid old lady, but all compensation is so fur j refused her by a Government which claims the loyalty of herself and chil? dren . All honest citizens of tho republic are shamed by the spectacle. A Remarkable Murder Case.?One of the most remarkable criminal trials of the age began at Dover, Del., on tbo 3d; that of Dr. West, who is charged with the murder of a colored man under cir? cumstances of peculiar atrocity. The killing Inu since boen admitted by Dr. West, who assorts that it was dono in self-defence. Tbe crime was committed iu the doctor's laboratory, where ho was engaged, with a colored assistant, iu ma? nufacturing aim ihaling gts called elec? tro-oxygen. It is oharged that he mur? dered the colored man with this gas, and that ho subsequently skinned him and blew up the laboratory containing tbe deud body. The State will claim on tho trial that tbo orimo was committed for the purpose of obtaining 823,000 in in? surance policies on the iife of Dr. West. A short time ago, Leo Hudson was performing her specialty, "Mnzeppa," at the St. Louis Opera House, when hor trained horse, Black Bess, fell from tbe wooden mountains with Mazoppa on her back, injuring herself so that it was ne? cessary to kill her the next day. The extra oxertiou and worry brought on an attack of brain fever, which causod hor death June 2d. Her real namo was Jalia Lee Uogdon, and sho was born iu Lees bnrg, Virginia, on the 22d of March, 1843. luformatioD has roached here of a gross outrage having been committed iu Sooloo and Zias by a Spanish man-of war on tho Amorioau schooner Scotland. This vessel was trading iu these ports and flying tbo Amorioau flag at the time sho was stopped aud boarded and searched by officers from tho Spanish vessel. Lettors from Boar Admiral Jen? kins, commanding tho United Htates fleet ou tbo Asiatic coast, are anxiously looked for, as it is thought ho has al? ready investigated the matter, and will make a full report to the department. A Beneoadb Rewarded.?Maj. Gris wold, Confederate Provost Marshal at Richmond during tho war, who was so strong a bourbon that ho ran as au auti Gieeley candidate for Congress in Balti? more, iu opposition to Gov.

Vandalism in WestvtlIiB, Conn.?Sa? turday night, the Westville oemetery waa entered by some fiends in human shape, ! who perpetrated outrages wbioh seem al? most inoredible. Trees, shrubs .and flowers were ruthlessly broken down and uprooted. Monuments and head-stones erected by tho love and care of frieoda, and oherished as the mementoes of de? parted ones, were overturned and scat torod. Gates and fences enclosing family lots were torn down and destroyed. Flags, placed to designate the graves of soldiers, were removed to other tombs, and as a final aot of vandalism, the tem? porary soldiers' monument was carried into the neighboring wood. No motive oan be ascribed for thia aot of vandalism. The inhabitants of Westville are tho? roughly aroused on tbe subject, and it is proposed to offer a reward for tbe detec? tion of the guilty parties. [New Haven Journal and Courier, 2d. The horrible deatha of two men from hydrophobia, and the disappearance of another whoso veina run with the ume j deadly virus, are recorded in the local columus of the Baltimore American. Abont three weeks ago, at the residence of Mr. Ferdinand Freybe, on the Hooks town road, a large watch-dog waa taken sick. In removing him from ono part of the yard to another, Charles Freybe, (aged twenty-three, a son of Mr. Freybe,) Anton Aoor aud Herman Druaael were bitten ^n the hands by tbe dog. Last Tueaday morning, Auer died, racked with horrible apaama. Young Freybe, who had visited him at his bed-side, waa attacked on the day of his death, and lingered until 1 o'clock, yesterday, when he died in the aame manner.

Etobells, a fiend and blacksmith, at Dunkinfield, England, having lately first murdered bis wife and nearly mur? dered one of his ohildren, saved further trouble by killing himself. He is repre? sented as having been a man of a most savage disposition, who took delight in torturing bis ohildren and maltreating his wife. One of his favorite amuse- 1 ments was to drop hot tallow on tho bare skin of bis children, dancing for joy at their ories of agony. Not a loving father, certainly, was Wm. Etohells; but we mention him principally because it is further stated that he committed a mur? der iu this country before going to Eng? land, and is "wanted" boro. A friend visiting in a minister's family where tho pareuts wero vory strict in re? gard to the children's Sabbath deport? ment, was confidentially informed by one of the little girls that "she would like to be a minister." "Why?" in? quired tho visitor, puzzled to understand what had given the child so sudden hd admiration, for that calling. She was quickly enlightened by the prompt reply, "So that I could holler on Sunday." A member of the Ohio Legislature has iutroduced a bill making it a misdemean? or to name another child John Smith. The Commercial Advertiser suggests that ho do something praotical and introduce a bill imposing a fine on every man by the namo of John Smith, and thus pay off tho national debt.
