Charleston is much excited over the murder of Mr. Thomas F. Croghan on the night of the i-V.h inst. All that appears now to he known is that Mr. Croghaa went into iris house after his work on Monday afternoon. How late he stayed up is not known.

On thel'oor was lying o-d musket undischarged. It is not unlikely that this was simply pushed from its ;' near the door, where it was kept, by ihc body as it was being dragged from the room. I; is not probable that the inurdc-rer would have approached close enough wid: a gun loaded with buckshot? a certain shot and sure death?to have aroused the suspicion of the intended victim.

The murderer entered ! through a Y;i::dovr, got into the passage and approached its deer. The buck of his victim was partly toward I.'in. ;;:ul he fired the fatal shot which, with well-directed aim, took eiTecl in the lc:'t side. The motive for the murder was evidently to get money. 31 r.

There is only one good?human happi- ; ness. j i To do ri<rht is the bud. blossom, and | . fruit of wisdom. < No perfectly civilized man could be J happy while there "was an unhappy be ( in:; in the universe that he knew. The poor imagine that the rich live in . Paradise. I know that the most of them J live in a gilded Hell. No man has the genius or the brain to ; 1 own So.000,000. The money owns him. 1 lie is the key to a safe. Yet these men go on accumulating. It is a sort of in- : : sanity.

Some are not cunning 1 ] enough, not strong enough, not stingy j ' enough. | 1 ^Millions of machines have been in- ! J vented to save labor, but the laborer ! does not own the machine.

I would not only see homes made free j from attachments for debt, but free from taxation also. Then we would have a nation and a nation of patriots. There is something about money that s dries up the aricctions.

I never enjoyed nything so much in my life. Have you teen yet?" % "No." he drawled out loud, thinking i himself, "What the deuce is the girl diking about, anyhow?" After rapid mt profound reasoning he came to the onelusiou that being a Boslon woman nd addicted to literature, the thing that he had been to was something partakp.g of an intellectual nature, and probacy scientific, judgingfrom the long and :npronounceable name. So he renarked lightly that really he "didn't jo much into that sort of thing now?it v.;s out of bis line, too deep entirely for lini." The Boston girl stared. "What'do on mean, sir?

"Well, you know," said the hapless ouih, putting his foot deeper in his notiih every time he opened it, "that me has to do such an awful 1 ot of eading to keep up with these scientific .kings, :md for my part I never enjoy hem unless I am quite up on the sublet they're talking about." lie felt he vas getting skillfully over a ciiiucuu Uiesiion and continued, with graceful self confidence, to add a few delicatQ md artistic touches to his position.

Hard to Hoax. Prof. Baird's grave features relaxed into a smile when the dispatch from Paducab, Ivy., announcing the discovery of a diamond-field near lhat place was shown to him. writes a Washington correspondent of the New York Herald. "I should say. without knowing anything about it." he said, '^UCaTthe story was a iioax. in one 01 vne specimens reported to have b?<>Ti sent to the Smithsonian have hZcn received, nor do I believe they' will be. Prof. Proctor, an emmep/c geologist, is now' making a torn- of Kentucky, but he has not been heard from upon the subject If the story possesses any foundation in fact, the probability is that the mine is 'salted.' Such tricks do occur occasionally. 1 remember about ten years ngo a.w^n' derful discovery of diamonds was reported from Colorado. The newspapers teemed with descriptions of the mine and its dazzling productions. A party oi genuemen went irom oau jcra-uuxsuu ana examined the mine in person. Ia their judgment it wns a bona-tide discovery. They returned to California and organized a stock company, with a capital runring up into the millions. Mr. Clarence K.in<r? one of the geologists attached to the Smithsonian, had just returned from Colorado when the excitement was at its height. Nothing of the kind had come under his observation, and naturally enough ho regarded the discovery ns a reflection upon himself. He returned to Colorado, and saw at once that the mines were 'salted.' The projectors of the :iff:iir offered him a large sum of money not to expose them, but he refused to be bribed, and so the frand becatnc public. "Whenever an alleged important discovery like tjis Kentucky mine, for instance, gets into the papers we of the Smithsonian have to suffer the con-equence-i.
