The committee appointed by the General Assembly of Virginia to arrango for the reception and location of the Foley statue of Stonewall Jackson, have decided to havo it erected between the avenuo on tho North sido of the Capitol and Capitol street, directly opposite the centre of the Capitol building, Richmond. By ar? rangement with the Allen line of steam? ships to Norfolk, tho statue will be trans? ported from England to Norfolk without freight charges. It will probably arrive early in Soptomber, nnd bo formally un? veiled and inaugurated on the first day of the weok of tho State Agricultural Fair in November. The works of Froderiok the Great havo just been issued in Prussia. Thoy don't allude to small matters?that is, to any? thing under Voltaire, 20,000 soldiers and a battery of four-pounders. Pistols yon Two.?Last Sunday after? noon, about 6 o'clock, a qnarrel arose near the corner of Fenwick and Mar hnry streets, between Thos. Costello and Robert Greggs, about some abusive words used by the latter, in relation to a relative- eft" the former. Pistols were finally drawn and four shots fireel by Costello and one by Greggs. One of the balls fired from Costello a pistol struck Greggs in the right groin, but glanced off without grazing the skin and leaving only a blood mark. The ball merely penetrated Greggs' pants. Another bail from Costello's pistol went through Greggs* hat. Policeman Lcyton reached the spot in a few moments, took the par? ties in charge and conveyed them to po? lice headquarters. Costello gave bond for bis appearance before the Recorder, Tuesday morning; Greggs, being unable to give bond, was retained under arrest for trial this morning. [Augustn Chrunlcle and Sentinel. Hydrophobia.?The New York papers record a death from hydrophobia, attri? buted to a bite which the victim received two months ago. The sufferings of the dying man are said to have been horrible beyond description. Hydrophobia is a disease not limited to seasons, though it seems to be most frequent in summer. It appears to arise most frequently from thirst, attacking the vagrant dogs who run the streets. These dogs are generally unmuzzled, and as the hottest days ol the year are approaching, it is time mea? sures were taken in all cities to curb their capacity for mischief. The Mayor of Baltimore has duly issued his notifica? tion on the subject, requiring the muz? zling of all dogs going at large in the city, the owners to procure a numbered license for each dog at a cost of $'2.50, and 310 for each bitch; otherwise, dogs going at large will be killed. A curious piece of mechanism, known as the "electric band," has recently been exhibited in Philadelphia. The paper sheets containing the music to be played nro drawn underneath a row of "feelers" charged with electricity. Tho paper be? ing a non-conductor, and the musical characters being printed with a metallic surface, a current is carried along the "feelers" to the performing part ot tho machine, which consists of drums, cym? bals, flutes, hautboys, etc., with an organ accompaniment, and the sounds pro? duced are in accordance with the written score. Tho invention is said to be a very ingenious one, and the work of two young Philadelphias, who have devoted four consecutive years to its perfection. It will be exhibited at the centennial world's fair, next year. A physician of Augusta received from a brother physician in a neighboring city, a few days since, a human heart, which has attached to it a most remarka? ble story. The man from whose body the heart was taken, attempted to com? mit suicide by stabbing himself with a knife. The weapon penetrated the heart and cut a cash entirely through it. Not? withstanding this, the man lived for thirty days afterwards, and would pro? bably have survived for many years, had he not risen from his bed and got on a drunk. While in an intoxicated condi? tion, he died. Tho heart is now in the museum of the Georgia Medical College. The reduction of taxation is pleasant to hear of in these davs of extravagance. In the State of New York the State tax has been reduced one and a quarter mills, making an aggregate reduction for the present year of $2,411,G35. This surpasses the hopes expressed by Gov. Tihb n. The New York Tribune says this saving is effected by no false economy, but is largely in consequence of cutting down extravagant salaries, lopping off useless expenses and checking unneces? sary outlays. Connecticut still maintains its unenvi? able reputation in regard to divorces. The whole number granted in the State last year was 402 - more than in any pre? vious year, though the total has exceeded 400 annually since 1803?or almost one ninth as many divorces as there were marriages, (4,0010 while in some other j States the proportion does not exceed one in twenty.
