A=Docking murder was committed in East | Rock pghem, near the foot of the mountain, on tbe read leading from Dovel’s white Bouse | property to Mr. Sebastian Fultz’, not tar from | the Rockingham tarnpiké, on Sunday night of | last week, it is supposed. about midmrgnt. James B. Falta, son of Sebastian Fults, of that vicimity, & young man about 25 yenis of age, | fath ‘was (hp and there bruta'ly murdered. The Frede sburg Herald says: — +The wonderfal profi she prape, may be gathered from the experience of Mr. Marcus Hack, of Warren county, Virginia. We are informed | that Mr. Buek planted ten acres with grape | cuttings justabout the breaking out of the war. L season Mr. B. sold mm imore, fresh fromthe press $2,000 worth of wine '!—nearly | } @1,000 per acre.” The contract not having been perfected be- tween the management of the Richmond The- aver and Grau, who controls Ristori’s move- m , the tragedienne, advertised to appear at tne Richmond Theater on the 24th and 25th in- stant, will not visit that city at all.

The teacher Temonstratec with him, but received insolent answers ia return, which terminated by daring bim to pumish him. The master, a young man of good pluck, and who thoroughly un- Gerstands bis duties, looked his pupil straight sm the eye, and informed him that all he re- quired was obedience to the school regulatio. and this he was determined to have, no m: bew large the scholar was. Farther in: sence followed, and it became necessary for the teacher to make a@ practical illastratien of what be meast. The refractory pupil showed fight, when the teacher, finding that he must evcher snbdue Bhim or be subdued, administered some ‘telling blows on the lad’s cranium, which brought the claret, also several of his comrades to their feet, disposed to interfere.

Hose Meat in New JERseY.—The citizens ef Newark are decidedly unfaverabie to borse meat as an article of steady diet, judging froma the sensation produced among them by the e.scovery of the skin of an old foundered borse in @ butcher's shop, famous for selling cheap beef. The butcher admitted that the earcass bad been cut up «nd put in brine as corned beef, and sent tos shop kept by his son, whicD, it bas since been ascertained, is one of those places where meats are obtained at prices so much below the regular quota- fens as pot only to puzzle purchasers, but legitimate dealers themselves. An examina. on of this latter place was made, aud a barrel half full of the new-fashioned beef found, to- gether with the head of the animal and lege, which had been stripped of the flesh, the jat- ter to be sold to the manufacturers of Bologna sausage. The hoofs stil] had the iron shoes on. ‘The offender was fined $25 for selling diseased meat, on his own admission that the animal bad the founders, and was let go, as there is no ordinance against selling horse-flesh for feod in New Jersey. a Wipows oUT OF PLacE.—The Pall Mali Gazeue says:— Mr. Roebuck said, not very long ago. in one of his caustic speeches, that he proceedings im the divorce coart had at any rate done good service in exposing the Sutof the middie classes, when they claimed to be more ‘moral’ than the aristocracy.
