Tho New Orleans Picayune thus describes a wonderful natural curiosity, to bo seen in that city : We paid a visit on Friday to that most won derful of Nature's freaks, the double-headed colored girl, or peifhape it would be more cor rect to say, the two girls in one., For conven ience, we shell speak of them lb the plural. They arc entirely distinct, ns far tin mind is concerned, laughing and chatting with each otherj and being apparently upon the moat in tiniate terms, nud one may have a headache or ? cold without the Other being a fleeted, but any fever, or other serious disease affects both equally: Their bodies are separate from the small bf the back up ; each having n perfcotly formed bust and head, two anus, Ac., and each has two legs, but there is only one. trunk. Both are remarkably intelligent, reading and writing with ease, While their manners are re fined. In quite a lengthy conversation, they did, not make a single grammatical error, and their language was uuusually select. Upon questioning them as to their education, they. replied that they hud been carefully taught by t'.ieir former mistress, Mrs. Smith, in Colum bus, North Carolina, in which village they were born. They arc now fifteen years old, and more than ordinary bright for girls of their age, having had the advantage of foreign travel. They both sing very sweetly, one having a so prano, and the other a contralto voice,'and wc have rarely heard two, ? voices that blended so perfect in a duet. Among their other accom plishments is that of dancing, and the manner, in which they manage to execute a waltz is truly wonderful. When standing at ease the left foot of one and tho right foot of the other do not lie flat upon the floor, but rest upon the toes. In walking, however, they step with all their feet and walk with perfect case with the other two. In speaking of them as one, they are culled Millc-Chrissie, but in addressing them separately, one applies tho distinctive ap pellation, she on tho left being called Millie, and she on the right Chrtsaie ; though Chris Tste, in addressing her other half, call her ' Sis ter." There is a striking resemblance between their faces, and conformation o! their heads, is mnch the same?Chrissio being perhaps a shade brighter than her sister, and rather more talkative. Before seeing these strange girls wo had fancied that vre would experience a feeling of repulsion, but the first glance at their bright, cheerful faces dispelled that ideu effectually. I ? ???

A dis pr.'.vh d.-xtcd Mrfdison, Wist Intelligence has just been received here of | a tragedy in Monroe, Grfcon count}', of which I the following are the particulars obtained from I entirely reliuble authority : Patrick Crotty, an | Irishman, somewhat noted for his exploits' among the fair sex, seduced a young serving Woman named Angeline 8hroyer, some two' years since, and a long suit followed about tho maintenance of tho child. The gitTs father proposed1 on her behalf, to settle the matter for an indemnity of 8300 and tho costs of the suit. Crotty had come to tho Monroe House where, angeline was working, to make payment and taking tf receipt in foil. Here a dispute occurred, Crotty claiming that the amount should be only 8300 in aJL. Crolty was quite boisterous in his language, frequently going out to stimulate himself with liquor. The girl also slipping out, procured u pistol, and on his approaohing her with insulting language, and some say, with violent gestures, she fired, the ball enteriug the nbdomen and passing en tirely through him. lodging near the skin at the hack. He uttered an exclamation, hasten ed to his sleigh, and attempted to drive home, but soon sunk down and died. Crotty had married only a few weeks since, and tho con troversy bos been more fierce since that time. ? ??? -??????r???? - A Tale op Lovb.?One quiet night in leafy June, when tho bees and birds were all in tune, two lovers walked beneath the moon.

The NapervMo Tragedy. ' 't '.''tJjffl .''ifUiiJtWMS^ ?.ft \"itr'-; hn, We have chronicled the fact of the killing Of a man nnwed .inmen A. Laird Rt iNaperville, DuPage county, Illinois, by. Chauncoy Bailey, with whoserwife the deceased had been crim inally intimate. A coroner's inquest has pine been hold Upon; the remains, and a verdict rpndorod in accordance With the facts. From the testimony given at the inquest it appears thai Mr. Chaunccy Bailey, tho injured husband,? r^gjded, in the western suburbs or Napcrville;' that some three months ago one Jallies A. J.rurd a young and not a bad-looking man, and Jornierly a resident .of the village, returned iiom the somewhat. fast town of Cheyenne, where he had held the position of sheriff ofwie county in1 which Cheyenne is located, af'also tho position of deputy United States manful of the district. During the three months since his return, an improper intimacy" gVow up between (ho cx-sheriff and the wife If Mr. Builey?an intimacy which although for feet ly evident to the community nt large, Was not known to Mr. Bailoy until quito recently. At last a friond of the injured husbaud ibid him of tho disgraceful rumors. Mr. Bailey very properly commenced to in vestigate as to the facts iu the case. So, accordingly, he immediately started off to Kigin, tnu .is, to speak more accurately, he told his Wife that he so intended. This de parture for Elgin, Mrs. Bailey was informed, would take place Wednesday morning But this part^of the programme was not carried out. During the day the ex-sheriff received a note written in a feminine Hand conveying the information that Mr. Bailey had left town for that day. Accordingly Mr. Laird pro j cccdcd t?? tho, house of the womau about 9 o'clock in the evoning. A gentle tap at the door, and Mrs? Bailey admitted Trim. Soon uftcr tin* entrance of Laird, Bailey appeared on the ;round?gaziug at the guilty pair through 't hole whioh he hud cut out in the the previous evening. His ltd .at tho time wore sitting to la lounge in the sitting-room, but |ut<i an adjoining bedroom. Wait [few minutes, BuQcy burst in the lasltiag into the bod motu, caught ^his wifo and her paramour ?agrantc tltlicto. Laird uttciuptcd to escape, but the outraged husband drew a revolver, and before the liber tine reached the door shot-him iu the breast immediately over the heart. Five shots were fired in all. only oue of which took effect Laird succeeded iti reaching the open uir, ran a few rods, and fell a corpse. Builey immedi ately gav?j himself up, but the authorities did not incarcerate him, allowing him to sleep where he desired to in the village. The cause of the above tragedy, or one of its causes (Mrs. Bailey), is u tolerably hand some woman, about twenty-eight years of nge. She commenced her career of 1 rcc-love by eloping with a Universalist clergyman.

Commkkclai..?Trade has has bceu lively during the ,u?acut week, says the Wilmington Star, especially "on the wharf." Turpentine and Cotton have been on a grand rampage, creating more than usual excitement among dealers. Even the croakers have been forced to gratify hi with some of their horrid grins, and reluctantly admit that all is not yot lost. Spirits Turpentine at 50 cents and Cottou at 128 (the ({notations of yesterday) isn't so bad aller all ; and wo hope to sec a general improvement in business at an early day. We have heard much recently concerning the prosperity of tho Cottou States. May wo uot hope that the "tidal wave" of rejuveoa tiou has reached Lbe Turpentine State? We doubt not we are as well off as our friends.further South. Their receipts, being! chiefly from cotton, come almost in a body ; while the productions of North Cnrolina, be ing more varied, keep trade near the standard of uniformity, and supply our people with greenbacks, though iu smaller quantities, throughout the entire year. In summer, when Savannah and Mobile arc without trade enough to keep a third of their business population occupied, Wilmington in doing her hcav'tost business in naval stores. No city uf the Sooth offers greater induce ments, to .capitalists than Wilmington. Wc hope they will give us a call before they do eide whore they think they can make the most money. lien. Ho ard, in an address on Friday night at the emancipation celebration in Washington, said that tho colorod man had not yet got out ot the woods, and that ho mu?t have the right of suffrage extended* to him in" Now York and Ohio, for he was as much entitled to Vote there as he Was in this Dis trict, or any of the 8oUthorn States; Ho urges Congress lo complete the work in that direction. Some Sunnier Days* Day by day the South gains a better tono. The people are growing more hopeful, and cor respondingly strong. Through all thcao States' so lately furrowed with cannon balls and sowed with dragons' teeth there are springing up, and even budding and blooming, the beautiful flowers of peace. Our material interests are advancing. With' pride and gratitude we make the record. Southern produce is going to market in un told quantities, and millions and millions of dollars are coming from the North and from Europe iu payment therefor. Here and there the crops may have proved a failure, hut a close examination seems to show that the fail ures arc exceptional, not the rule, and that throughout all tho broad South the larger number of tilled acres have given grateful yields. There has been moro heart in tho '?harvest-home" home songs than for several years. ; There is even now a greater abundance of money in the South than has been for many a long year. Wo have been gaining wealth, and what is better, tho stern experience of lat ter years has taught us to be economical, pru dent, thrifty. The great business centres of the North have been saying, in .view of pro poiuul enterpriser Hers, "There is ee iscsey in,the South. On the 28th ult., one New York bank alone forwarded one and a halt' millions of dollars to the South. That bank is only one of many now called-on to pour into our coffers. The glad evidences are that a portion of this wealth will be used, not in dissipation, but iu building up the waste- places of tho South. We have as wc have said, grown more thrifty. In this genera! comparative prosperity the city of Charleston and tho entire State of South Caroline are,.we trust, making a true advauee. The improvement may, to some, seem slow, but it is none the less sure. too ? With more money-making, come othor and -reat improvements. In Government matters we are becoming more stable, and in the mat-1 tor of general education we are certainly reach ing a higher plane. Wo have it is true, some drawbacks, some difficulties. Clouds drift up now and then. Hut all the South is fust finding the sources of true wealth. Kvcry true patriot should be glad thereat, for added good to the South means an added good to the nation. i A Hermaphrodite.?In Vienna, Cathe rine Hohanann, a native of Bavaria, is exhib iting herself at the present time to the physi cians aud nat uralists of the Austrian capital. She is neither a man nor woman, a fusus na tural a case of hermaphrotlisia tank httr.ralit. A journalist who saw her, writes to the Vicu na Freu: "I pitied the poor creature. Al though iu good health, and of robust, even beautifully shaped form she sat before me in deep distress and wept. And she has wept I already a great deal ia her joyless life. She loved a man for twelve years t he loved her too, and even proposed to her to go with him to America, where nobody would know of her misfortune; he would live with her there and' be happy with her. But she refused to ac cept his generous offer, saying she would not muko Iii tu unhappy. Then she loved, dread ful to say, for seven mouths?a young girl. Both of them were greatly attached to each other, until the young girl finally turned from her tttid married, "from this time forward," says tho poor hermaphrodite, "1 could no lon ger look at the girl; i hated her." The most conflicting feelings always su?go in her breast and torment her heart. She feels love for both sexes, and does not belong to either. "What shall I do here on earth?" she exclaimed ; what am I ? In my life an object of scientific experiment, and alter my death, an anatomical curiosity !" Proportions of the Human Body.? The proportion of tho human figure arc stric tly mathematical. The whole figure is six times the length of the foot. Whether the form be slondor or plump, the rule holds good; any deviation from it is a departure from the highest beauty in proportion. The fir eka matlo all their statures according to this rule: Tho face, from the highest point of the fore head, where the hair begins, to the chin, is I one tooth of the whole, stature; the hand, from the wrist to the middle fingers is the same From the top of the chest to t he highest point in tho forehead is a seventh, if the length of the face, from the roots- of tho hair to the chin be divided into throe' equal parts, the first division determines the place where the eyebrows meet, and the second the place of nostrils. 1 he heigth, from the feet to the top of the head ia the same as the extremity of the fingers when the arms are extended.
