Mourpver Mosr Fov..—A murder of a most atrocious character was committed at Somer- ville, a suburb of Boston, at an early hour on Saturday morning last. The victims were Mrs. Catherine Smith and her 14-year old son Thomas, who were shot and killed instantly. Two younger children were wounded. The murder was committed in a tenement occupied by Mrs. Smith. Mrs, Smith was shot while asleep in bed, and Thomas received a bullet in his forehead while attempting to escape from the house. The other two children were wounded while in their room in the attic.» Augustus Rosenburg, who has been living with Mrs. Smith since her husband mysteriously disappeared sume time agu, was the murderer. No motive is assigned for the deed. The generally accepted theory is that Rosenburg was insane. Alter doing the shoot- ing Rosenburg jumped from the second story window into the yard, where later on his body was found. There were no marks of violence on the body, but signs of poisoning were visible.

An African Horror.
FRIGHTFUL TORTURES OF A DEAD KING‘S WIVES.
A horrible story of human sacrifices comes from the east coast of Africa. A short time ago the King of Eobe, a province on the Niger, died. Some English traders from New Calabar went up the country to |pay their respects to the new sovereign. | When they reached Eobe they found what are called the “Ju Ju” rites were being performed. The old king, who had been dead about two months, was still lying in an open grave. It was large enough to accommodate nine of the departed ruler’s youngest wives, who had been murdered in ‘the cruelest manner. Each of them had her ankles and wrists broken so that she could neither walk nor crawl. In this maimed condition, and suffering the most excruciating pain, the poor creatures were placed at the bottom of the grave, seven of them lying side by side. The king’s body was then laid on them in a_ transverse direction. Then the two remaining womeu were laid by his side. There they were left without food or water to wait for their kind liberator, death, which, however, it is said, did not come to their release until after four or five days of intense suffering. In the meantime four men were stationed around the grave, armed with clubs, ready to knock backward any of the women who might manage to crawl to the side of the pit. In other parts of the town human. sacrifices were taking place. Sus- pended from various trees were the bodies of several men. They, too, were under- going agonizing deaths, holes having, in most cases, been bored through their feet, just by the ankles. Through these holes ropes were drawn and the men tied toa high tree, head downward, and left to die. These are only specimens of the fiendish cruelties practised, and which the traders were quite powerless to prevent. For the next ten months these sacrifices will be continued.

Picnic Courtship.
When summer fair her charms display, And wild flowers gem the leas,
And musical are woods and ways With song birds’ melodies.
The gentle maid, in white arrayed, Then to the picnic hies,
And he!ps to make the lemonade And «orve the custard pies.
She walks with Jolin o’er mead and lea And plucks the daisies white,
And hears his vows of love, and she Returns cn aged at night.

It is said that the land is so rich in many parts of Missouri that melons cannot be raised on it. The melons grow all right, but the vines grow so fast that they wear the melons out dragging them around the prairie after them.
A New Hampshire crank, who has im ported a Cashmere goat, intending to raise his own cotton to make camel’s-hair shawls with, writes to know if there is any differ- ence between Southdown mutton and mut- ton down South.
Some people are born lucky, others ac- quire luck, and few have luck thrust upon them. A St. Louis man has just been sen- tenced to ninety-nine years in the peniten- tiary. How much worse it would have been if he had received a life sentence.
A Connecticut woman is suing her neighbor for damages by puiting up fly screens. She claims that the flies which cannot get into the neighbor's house on this account will come tu hers, and she will thereby have double the usual number.
Mosquitoes are so plentiful in Chicago that a couple of lovers sitting on the back steps of a residence on Wabash avenue were bitten 350 times in 30 minutes. They didn’t mind it, however--in fact, they didn’t know they had received a bite until an hour after.
** Talking ob law,” said Brother Gardin- er, ** makes me think ob what de’ mortal Cato, who lib’ ’most a thousan’ years ago, once said : ‘ De law am like a groun’ glass window, dat gibs light ‘nuff to light us poor folks in de dark passages of dis life; but it would puzzle de debble hisself to see through it !”
** Be your own ductor,” advises a patent- medicine adyertiser. It is pretty guood advice, too. The man who is his own doc- tor can visit himself half a dozen times a week, charge $1 a visit, collect $25 at thi end of the month, and be just that much in pocket. We don’t suppose he ever looked at it in that light.
If you drop your collar button there is one sure method of finding it. After you have hauled the bureau across the room to look under it, then replace the heavy furm- ture and put on a heavy pair of shoes, start to walk across the room, and before you have taken three steps you will step ou the collar button and smash it all to pieces.

An Op Reic —The Annapolis Spectator says: Yesterday we were shown a piece of & cannon’s mouth weighing some 19 or 20 ibs , which was dug out of a railway cut a mile or two below Annapolis. The original was evidently a tenpounder used by the French or English in defending the colony. The lock of a musket with the flint still in it was found in Mr. John Ga- vaza’s lot in the railway cutting. The bolts were in 4 position as if the wooden stock had crumbled away.
