Shooting Affair. An unusual excitement was occasioned on Arsenal Hill yester., day afternoon, at about 4'c*clook, by a negro men, named Charles Davis, snooting his v?ifo.-CT':e facts, as our reporter who visited the locality immediately alter the shooting learned them as follows: Davis left his wile about two years ago, and went to Florida, arrivtng back hero Sunday last. He visitod his fatuity and spent the day Monday, no trouble naving ensued between thorn. Ycsterday-be returned to the houso, and calling his wife into a room, locked the door upon her, and a scuffle soon followed, the screams of the woman attracting the attention of the neighbors, one of whom, when eko readied the place, iound Mrs. Davis with hor bead out of the window, and holding off a pistol, which Davis was endeavoring to point at her. The parties finally wrestled until j they reached tho street, when Da-1 vis succeeded in throwing her ! upon the ground, and holding one ; of her hands, ho discharged two barrels of tho pistol at her, while she was in this situation, ono ball taking effect in tho groin, and the other in tho thigh. Policeman Bynuin attempted to arrest Davis, but being unarmed, was unable to do so, ho refusing to bo arrested. About this Jtimo Deputy Sheriff Sill came upon tho ground, and between them, Davis was po cured and lodged in jail. The nature of tho woman's wounds bad not been ascertained when our reporter left, but enough wa9 known to pronounce them very serious if not fatal. The whole matter arose from jealousy. [Daily Union, Any. 10. Incident <n the Life of a Colored Couple Tho recent election has boon tho source of many an affecting incident in tho households of our colored people. We have already referred to the impassioned part the colored womon took in it. A couple who had livod together in uu broken felicity for years fell out on tho dov of election. The bus band incurred Hie displeasure of the wife by voting the Citizen's j ticket, believing it to 1>is interest > to do so. Aa eoon ns it reached the ears of the wife her demeanor to him changed. She refused him admission to her board nnd bed, and cariicd her spite so far that t the man got worked up to such a pitch that he struck her. She lost ^ no time in having hiin brought before a Trial Justice, who, on tho evidence of tho wife, found him guilty of tho assault and battery, nnd was about to send him to jail The man, unaccustomed to law and its lock ups, was deeply touched, and burst into tears ; whereupon tho Justice remonstrated with tho woman, nnd begged her to drop the case. At first she was unrelenting, and would hear to no j diivu tiling y uiil iiju woman ? heart, as womans will do, felt tlio pangs she was causing, and melt ed, and it soon became evident that she had forgiven. When she was approached again she gladly embraced the opportunity to beeome reconciled, and in less time than it takes to record the fact, she took her husband's hand and "forgave him all," and left the' Justice's office as pleased as though no cloud had ever darkened their life. Tim Grain Tradk.?The Chicago Tribune reports a great excitement in the grain trade in that city. On tho evening of August 1st wheat sold at $1.01 per bushel, and the general reduction of prices during tho week led to a general demand on the morning of August 2d for a deposit, of mar- ; gins on outstanding contracts.? During the day there were over t\v<? millions dollars deposited in margins, and an immense amount of wheat was also thrown upon the market, causing prices to doc.'ino to 95$ cents a bushel. In the latter part of the day there was a rally, and the market cl<?s cd at 97 cents. On July 25th wheat sold tor fcl.15 per bushel, and the fall in prices in nine days j was 19$ cents a bushel, or nearly J seventeen per cent. With these heavy falls in prices it is not snr prising that the speculation in grain in Chicago involves very heavy risks, and that the failures in Chicago arc numerous. ? ? ? Wt. Louis, August 9.

Thomas terminated bia pastoral connexion wilb llie Greenville Baptist Cburcb oil Sunday last, w hen he preached morning and evening to full congregation*, ilia text in the fore noon vrtk* the 12ib chapter of John. 4uh and 48th verse?" And if any man hear mv words and beiievo not, I judge him not, for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world, lie that rejected! me and . receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeih him; the word that 1 have spoken the same shall judge hiin in the last day." Mr. T mom as evidently labored under deep feeling, and alluded to his pastor hi separation from the Church with Altering voico and manner, regaining, however, as he said, from ar.y effort to express the sad emotions which lite occasion inspired. The sermon was especially addressed to those of tho congregation who had not accepted the Gospel which he had labored to preach | to them ; maintaining that the words of i th3 text were just as applicable now to those who rejected the Gospel preached by tho ministers, who ate the einbas sndors of Ghiist, as it was to those who 1 heard it from tho lips of tho Savioni when on oarlli. Mr. Thomas went on ( to say that lie bad, doting his tninistiy I in Greenville, preached "in war and i pence " only the Gospel. Ho had not discussed pliylosophy. literature, or politics, or mere sensational topics. To this his church and congregation care bear him witness. We could not help reflecting, on hcniing the statement, on the contrast the course of "Mr. Tiiomas afforded, (and thnt is charactcii>tic with most all Southern preachers.) to that of the Northern preachers who have, with a few exceptions, so much belabored politics and the Star Spangled Banner during many years past. Wo cannot give an outline of Mr. Thomas' discourse. After the close of the morning service, a conference of tho Church was held, ar.d the committee appointed to inform Dr. Jamkb C. Furman that he was desired to become the Pastor of tho Church, reported r letter addiessed to them by him accepting the call. The invitation to Dr. Furmak hud expressly stated that the Church, iu requesting his pastoral services, did not desire him to sever entirely his connexion with Furman Uuivcrrity; and it is with great satisfaction that wo are able to state that he will continue to occupy a , ( position ns one of the Faculty in that Institution. I The last and a most excellent and iin | press-die seirnon, before the Chinch, , was preached by Mr. Thomas Sunday evening, a large congregation being , present ; not only the usual Baptist con- ! crrecratioti. hut many of ilm mnnil.ers of . " - . ^ ... J the other Greenville churches wore in ( attendance. The text .was taken from 2d Philippians, lOtli verse?"Holding forth the word of life, that I may ;;joiee ; in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, liciiher labored in vain." The text and discourse were alike appropriate. This sermon clo?cd tho eighth year*' pastorate of Mr. Thomas in Greenville. During all this time he lias her n faithful to his high calling, anJ kept him self unspotted from the wmld. lie do-' parts for Virginia to morrow morning.' leaving behind him a good name, 'I he | respect and good wishes cf this com- j munity and the prayers of the pious will attend him whatever his lot may i he cast.
