THE EVENING STAR, RPPLE SHOOTING IN KENTUCKY. ing resided some years in Kentucky, aad niore than cnet been witness ornne —. 1 will present you with the result of my Tretion how far ritle shooting is und-tswod Mtbat Mate.

The gun was wiped, ihe powder measured, the ball patched with soe~ thread Hinen, and the charge sent fiome with 2 Bickory rod. We moved not a step from the place, for the squirrels were so numerots it was not neces- sary te goafterthem. My companicn pointed to one of those animals that had observed us, and was crouched on 2 branch about fifty paces @istant, and made me mark well where the ball should hit. He raised his piece gradually anul the bead (that is the name given by the Ken-” tuckians to the sight) of the barred was brought to aline with the spot he intended tohit. The whip-like report resounded through the v.cods, and along the hill, *in repeated echoes. Judge of my surprise when | perceived that the ball had hit the piece of bark immediately beneath the squirr the concussion produced by which had killed the animal. and sent it whirling through the air, as if it had been blewn up by the explosion ofa powder macazine. Since that adventure I bave seen many other individuals perferm the same feat.

At a distance that rendered it scareely distingaish- able, stood a burning candle, as.if intended as an offering to the goddess of night, but which, in fact. was only fifty yards from the spot on which we steod.

Some nev: hit even the snuff or the candle, and were con- gratulated with a loud laugh, while others ac. tually snuffed the candle without puting it out, and wete recompensed for their dexterity by numerous hurrahs. One of them, who was | particularly expert, was very fortunate. and | snuffed the candie three times out ef seven, whilst all the others put out the candle or cut itimmediately under the light. A BIT OF ROMANCE. A+ Gay and Festi Scene. In a cosy little cottage in the neighborhood of a pepular hotelin this city there resides an old gentleman who, among other household goods, is the possessor of two pretty daughters. One Sunday evening said pretty daughters were sitting in the parlor together with their lovers —tor they were of the age to have such articles ofloxury. After a few very pleasant minutes of conversation a walk was proposed, and as the evening Was pleasant no ebjection was the four loving spirits sallied forth, K different directions. The elder sieter, with her “fame"—a gay young soldier in the aniform of a corporal— made their way to a church not far distant “A New Way of Mar: ee o New Hampshire they used to -' aioe Stmw, county, aud town officers, from Goyerne? down to hog reeves, at onetown meeting, the annus] March mee’ As the cers were TeTy numerous, if wa: cus- saency, as fastas they were chosen, to walk them up before a justice of the peace and have them eswern into office ~by companies, half pair, and singie.” «Squire Chase,’ ies, ish, of Goyernor Chase, of ) being agen prominent justice, had task to perform, and a severe task it was, eccupying much of his time from moraing till night. E It was on one of these occasions, after the labors and toils of the day were over, he re- turned to his home weary and overcome with dhe igues of his empicyment, and throwing Dimsef in his easy chair, he fell intoa souad In the meantime a couple who bad deem waiting im tly for sometime for the es. to join ip wedlock, presented ives inanother partot the house, and wade Known their tateresting desires to Mrs. who, sumew bat confused and agitated, hase, , H attended them to the sleeping justice, whom | she found it difficult to arouse. him by ibe shoulder, she calied out, “Mr. Chase, rT. hase, do ‘Wake up: here is a couple | tome to be’ married.” “The justice having aa | ministered oaths all day, was dreaming nothing lee, half-waked, rubbing his eyes aad looking at the wishful pair, asked, * Are you the couple [* They nodded assent. «Well, hold up your hands.’ They did so | hesatatior with some m. “You, severally, solemaly swear that you will faithfully per- | form the duties of your office, respectively, ac- cording to vour best skill and judgment, so | help you,” &e. he astonished Satis ay locking wild, the | stice added, soothingly, “ That's all except. ie the Tee,.one dollar,” which was ber | dropped into his hand. and they were of! doubting, as they went, the legality of the we process; brit they concluded wo go according whe oath. Frescn INTriccrs 1s echin-China is im_a state of revolution, hromght about by French intrigues. About sixty years ago, French missionaries and mili- tary adventures restored the ancient line of Cechin-China monarchs, and, with their assistance, these monarchs conquered and an- ue greater part of Camboja, has made peace with the King of Cochin China, exacted and annexed 2considerabie portion of his own hereditary territory, and levied a heavy contribution upon | him. Meanwhile Tonquin, the bestand largest ; portion of the Anam dominion, is in rebellion, | the Tonquinese having picked up a young man, sup d to be scion of their aucient kein; seminary in the Briti-h island of Penaug, is the head ofan army of 160,000 men, wi ebance of restoring the ancient dyn: own person. a7 Bragg and Humphrey Marshal are report- ed to have had a high quarrel. The Maysville Eagie eays one version has it that Marsbal got drunk in Richmond, and, swearing that Bragg Was a coward for evacuating to strong a posi- tion as Dick Robinson without a battie, left him and make bis way back to Mount Sterling. Leemepinicine tt that Bragg denounced Marshal and ordered him to get out of the Stat: the best way be could and steal for himself: that he did Not want to be held responsible for the conduct | of Marshal’smen. For Bragg to swear at any one for stealing is what we call the sublime of impudence. The secessionists of the interior ure ver, seared dog before Buell. that he would never leave Kentueky, and they, like fools, believed him, and their disappoint- ment is bitter in the extreme.—Loutsvil!e Jour- nai.
