Snootirne Arrain—A Washingtonian Con cerned.—As shader of night approached Friday evening, a Mrs. John McGaigan, whose hus band, however, had songht green ticlds and pas- tures new some years since, was seen to stroll leisurely out Henry street peyond the railroad depot, and soon thereafter Mr. George Brown sauntered by in the same direction. As Mrs. MecGuigan’s pace lessened, Mr. Brown's in- creased, and in a short time the two were seen fromenading, love-like, on the east side of leury street, between Wolfe and Wilkes. What sweet words they were sybelating to each other | BO mortal save themselves is aware, but what- | ever they may have been, they were terminated most abruptly, for a Ne: iu the unques- tionable ehape of Mrs. George Brow, | pon the ill-fated couple’s track, and as they on pleasure bent stepped laggardly along Henry | street, that lady on bloody thoughts intent, har- | Tied out Patrick street to Wilkes, andup Wilkes | to Henry street, and tarning into Kenry street, | met her intended victims as they were ap- Proaching the corner, Instantly drawing a re- volver she discharged two barrels at the startled d alarmed pair betore her husband could | seize her end stop her shooting. Mra. Mc | Quigan, at the first report, fence, but at the second r: a deer up Wilkes street fell” against the n with the agility of nd sought safety in now irate hasband, grasping bis wife by the arm, led her dqwa Wiikes street towards their home, and in terms | by no means like those he was addressing Mrs. McGuigan, rated her for the coarse she had pursued, telling her she was acting for etfeot; | bad not intended to shoot anybody, and flaally oucring to give her 83 if she would shoot him Stung to the quick by bis words she aprang fron his g dagaim drawing her pistol, pulled | the trigger, with ite muzzle against his ‘breast but the cap evapped. He then wrenched the weapon from her and led her home, and in a short time afterwards, having taken a stimu lant, told some of his friends that they would not yet awhile have to lore a half a day to at- tend his funeral. Brown is a macbinist and Works in Washington, though hie family reside here. He hag, it is sald, been intimate with Mrs. McGuigan for some time past, to the great scandal of IMs wife, who, on @ former occasion stoned the house of Mrs. McGuigan, in which he was ersconsed. The parties were before the mayor this morning, who fined Mrs. Brown for shooting in the strect. She expressed a wish to state the great provocation she had to break tha peace, but was not allowed to do so, a the ordi- Rance exacting the fine was unconditional From the mayor's office Mrs. McGuigan went to Justice Whittlesey’s office, and had a psace warrant issued against Mrs. Brown, and that case will be tried on Monday. Por HUNTERS from Washington infest all the marshes below this city, play sad havoc among the young woodcock, and send their game in large quantities, packed in ice, by sail boats to that city. The shooting of woodcock now is contrary to law, the penalty being a heavy fine, half of which goes to the informer. — Gazette, 13th. Deats oF THE OLDEST OiTIZ8N OF ALEX. ANDRIA.—Mr. John J.
