PERSONAL..-Mr. Robert Hamilton, an experienced and affable host, formerly of the Mills House, and latterly of Nick eraon'a Hotel, in Colombia, hos assumed the superintendence of the Pavilion Ho? tel. His genial manners and winning ways will add to the deserved reputa? tion of the Pavilion. One of a party in pursuit of Bill Hathaway, who killed Henry Frazier, in DeKalb County, Tenn., a short time since, is said to have been killed by the desperado. Hathaway is said to be hid? den in a oave, and to defy capture. Berlin, Prussia, wants the Jesuits'^ex pelled. I ni a-mi i BEBI+H?, August H.-"I boiievo in God tho Father. God the Sou, and Gud the Holy Ghost," "You lie!" ^ ^^nasy7\ngntt^! in^tb?presenoe of a numerous congregation, thia saeri Hgiou s ' scene waa enacted in the Cathe? dral Church, of Berlin. The Ber. H. Heinrici was standing before the altar, reciting the Belief, when a young man, rising from a front Seat and interrupting the clergyman, gave him the lie, and at once discharged a pistol at. his breast. Tho next moment he was iu the hands of the sexton, and quietly suffered him? self to be led away to the vestry. A portion of the congregation seated at a distance, having only heard the report 1 anti seen tho curling smoke, without any definite notion of what was going ou. immediately'begrtn to move toward the door, and created considerable tumult; but those near the altar, who had been witnesses of the daring attempt, retained their seats. In preserving their com? posure, they but imitated the noblo ex? ample of til? clergyman whose life had just been placed in snob jeopardy. The Hov. H. Heinrici was unhurt; nor hod the moral firmness of the man whose body the ball had missed been shaken. No sooner had the trying interlude, tho details of which seem to have been ob? served with terri bio distinctness-by those near, cpmo to an end, thau tho intended victim calmly resumed reading the creed, and with redoubled fervor proclaimed that belief the utterance of which ha'd imperilled his life. After this, tho ser? vices were continued in accordance with the prescribed ritual. Tho Rey. H. Heinrici left the altar, when the Rev. Dr. Kogel ascended the pulpit, abd preaohed a sermon, in which bo introduced a pas? sage expressive of his thanks to God for the miraculous escape of his clerical bro? ther. Quiet had been speedily restored, and the greater portion of the congrega? tion, agitated as they were by the most powerful emotions, left the church only after the final benediction. lu the meantime, tho criminal had beeu conducted by a policeman to tho nearest station, and examined by a supe? rior officer. To all the questions pat to him he replied with the utmost frankness and composure. Ho said: "My name is Bilaad. I am nineteen years of agc, a Protestant, and the son of a blacksmith, in the village of Lank, County of Lower Barnim, a few miles from Berlin. My parents sent me to a grammnr school, wishing mo to be? come a candidate for the miuistry in the Established Church. But my eyes were soon opened to the creed I was expected some day to teach, and my dislike was increased to disgust when I perceived that many of those professing to believe it were liars at heart. I refused to pur? sue, a career which had become so hate? ful to mo, and resisted all attempts of my parents to force me to persevere. "Eventually, I saw myself left by them to my own devices, and began to study art-the dramatic art-I mean I wished to become au actor, and to preach to tho public in my own way; but the re? ligious mendacity rampant around me gavo me no rest. Some I saw uttering deliberate untruths; while others, know? ing them to be such, listened with con? temptuous indifference. Gradually I taught myself that some striking deed wes indispensable to rouse tho public mind from its apathy, and chaso away the mists of superstition. "I therefore determined to seize the first favorable opportunity that o UV red for shooting a clergyman while in the act of uttering his accursed perjuries. I have done it. I have myself cast the ball and done my best to render the shot fatal. I am souud in body and mind, and scorn the suggestion that I have acted nnder tho disturbing influence of temporary insanity. I perfectly knew what I was about, and am convinced there are many ablo to comprehend the disinterestedness of my purpose, though they may, per? haps, not approve the method chosen to compass it. My design was to shoot Mr. Heinrich, and I was prepared to pay the penalty of the deed." Such, in substance, was the statement of the reckless, misguided young man. Inquiries seem fully to confirm his words. Ho having missed at a distance of three paces, at first gave rise to the surmise that be had fired with blank cartridge; bnt it is only too true that there was a ball in tho barrel. The course of tho ball has been exactly traced. Passing within an inch of tho clergyman's head, it penetrated tho open balustrade of the gallery, in which the Dom Chor-celebrated for its vocal per? formances-was stationed, and grazed the cheek of one of the choristers, a boy of twelve. Tho little fellow, although his cheek instantly began to swell, did not leave the church, but sang his allot? ted part to tho end. The Princo Adal? bert, tho only member of the royal family present, when tho service was over hastened to express his sympathy to tho clergyman and the little chorister boy. - Correspondence London -Times. A poor girl drowned herself some weeks since al the Shaker -settlomont near Hudson, N. Y., and tho Shakers buriod her without an inquest. It being ascertained by the coroner of the baili? wick that such a casualty had ocourred, ho ordered the body to be disinterred, and held an inquest over it. This great? ly disturbed the Shakers, who thought they ought to be left to themselves, without interference from without. No signs of violence were fonnd upon the body, and the verdict was that she com? mitted suicide by drowning. At the in? stance of tho fraternity, physicians made an examination, and reported that she had not violated the rales of the order which prescribe a life of chastity and purity. The Cincinnati Times says thatjilVeral of the largest gambling saloon? U> |pw doing a wholesale business in tBir very centre of that city. wmm--------i Iti ?pi to of tho rot) oonoo of the con epiratorivBod tho'seoreoy of their conn oil?, facto are cowipg on? ^i^fegpaB^m mont to secure tho nomination of Go vernor Houtman for President in 1372. It had' its origin in the city of Boston, and its head centre is desoended from an illustrious house, not particularly dis? tinguished for its Democratic antece? dents. Among the liberal Democrats of the New England States there isa realizing sense of the necessity of a new depart? ure if tho party is ever to recover the ?round lost in Maine, New Hampshire, Eassachusetts and Connecticut. Thore is no feeling of personal animosity to Mr. Pendleton, bat the conviction is strong among them that te represents iu his record and opini< >ns those ideas and traditions which are most objectionable, and which are positive obstacles to future success. The course to be pursued in Ohio was a plain one to these gentlemen. It was to initiate a movement which would bring about the nomination of a candi? date for Governor of more liberal and advanced ideas than Mr. Pendleton, and Judge Bunny was approved as the proper person. It was only when it became apparent that he could not carry the Couventiou against the Poudleton inte? rest that General Rosencranz was pitched upon. The General's declination, and Mr. Pendleton's acceptance of n nomination at the hands of tho State Central Com? mittee, put au end to the new departure movement for this year, but we are greatly mistaken if ho will not bo left ulono by those who aro in league with the Eastern Democracy, to fight his own battle. Urgent private business, physi? cal debility, or disinclination for an active part in the cuuvass, will be apolo? gies for indifference and inaction. Of course there will be no open opposition; fair but faint words of praise will bc spoken, and the canvass will be allowed to drift on with whatever energy Mr. Pendleton's ardent personal friends can infuse into it, and nothing more. Should he bo defeated, there will be no mourning in New York or Boston. Should ho bo elected, it will be, or, in? deed, it has already been claimed, that the result is of no consequence as affect? ing his chances for the Presidency. Tho Hoffmanites will in etiher case assume that the advantages of position are all on their side, and if they succeed in getting Belmont off the National Com? mittee and substituting Tweed, we are not certain that they will not have sub? stantial grounds for the assumption. The most that Pendleton can expect of them this year is a cold courtesy and quiet demeanor. [Cincinnati Commercial, August 26. WHAT CAUSES EABTHQUAK.ES.-Of lalo the theory has been advanced that earth? quakes are caused by the influence of tho sun and moon on the internal waves of tho earth. A Mr. Budolf Falb has writ? ten in defenco of this hypothesis, and in order to give a clear proof of its correct? ness he prophesies that the next earth? quakes will occur in equatorial countries on September 6 and October 4.

Tho time has boen so fixed that parties desiring to attend the State Pairs of Tennessee, Georgia and Alabama, may also attend this without inconve? nience. A lady teacher was endeavoring to ini pross upon her pupil the terrible effect of tho punishment of Nebuchadnezzar, saying: "Seven years he ate grass like a cow," when a boy asked: "Did he give milk?" J. Boss Brown contradicts the report that tho Chinese Government have re? jected the Burlingame treaty with the United States. He says it has merely been hold over for consideration until the return of tho embassy. It is said that Mrs. Hamilton, tho mother of the late Bishop of Salisbury, attended her son's funeral on August 7. The venerable lady, who is eighty-eight years of age, was drawn to the grave in a bath ohair. On Sunday, the Bov. Wm. Jackson, minister of tho Free West Church, Air? drie, suddenly dropped down dead in his pulpit while preaching his customary forenoon sermon. It is stated, on the best authority, that the proposition made by tho United States to the Spanish Government, to sell Coba to the Cubans, this country I guaranteeing tho bonds, does not meet j with favor at Madrid.
