Malicious Shooting in Colkbain Township. A man named John Gudemun was arraigned beforo Justice Bell, yesterday, and held to hail iu tho sum of $500 to answer the chargo of malicious shooting, beforo the same Court on Wednesday next. It appears that a man named Frederick Houseman bad leased some promises from Oudoman, aud that some of the provisions of tho lease had not been com plied with, which fact had caused consider able ill-foeling between the parties. This has been in existence for some time past, aud on Saturday last they met near their resi dences, in Colerain Township, and had some difficulty, during which Houseman was shot in the arm, and this circumstance gave rise to the suit. Whether wo have heard tho true state of the case, we are not prepared to say; but the facts will doubtless trauepiro at the trial on Wednesday. An old Larcent Case Resurrected. A woman named Margaret Foley was before the Police Conrt, a few days ago, charged with petty larceny, but the prosecuting witnoss did not appear, and she was discharged. The caso will be reopened and heard, we bcliovo, some time to-day, at the court of Justice MoFall, when, we presume, tho matter will bo finally settled. It is said that the stole $30 from man named Riley, while be was asleop in her house; but she says the money was nut stolen, Dot that sue iound it in tne bed in wtnob r.iley and her husband had slept off a fit of drunken ness the night before. Sbo paid some bills with a part of it, and when aoouaed of the theft offered to refund the balance, which was $12, and promised to pay that which she had used at the first opportunity. Riley, however, preferred to make this eharge, and seems to be inclined to punish the woman rather than watt for Bis money. Serious Accident in a Lumber-YAnn. Quite a serious sccident occurred yesterday morning, in a lumber-yard in the Seventeenth Ward. A large number ot boards, which some men had rather cuefully piled in one the wagon-pitas in tne yard, lell and broRe the leg and arm of a man named George Trunio, and erusbod almost to death another named Andrew Easton. It is laid that the latter eannot survive, as sevoral his ribs were broken, one of which entered his Incgs and causing such internal injuries as will rentier impossible lor him to recover. Me resides, we believe, a short distance above the Little Miami Railroad Depot, and has a wife and several children who are entiroly dependent npon his exertions for their support. The ac cident will thus be quite as disastrous to their comfort as to his life. Fatal Acoiiet Death CAuasn by Injury Received from a Kerdlc One of those singular circuuistanoes wbioh have erer the tendency to beset and Increase a belief in the doctrine of fatalism, occurred a few days ago on Western-row. A eeamstrois, named Mar garet Dickson, residing on the thoroughfare have named, near David -street, one day last week accidentally thrust a needle Into the hollow of her left hand. The pain at the instant was quite severe,' but she thought nothing of it, and as it did not bleed she con tinued her work until Friday last, although the wound continued to give her some trouble. On the morning of Friday the pain became almost unbearable, and, after suffering until Saturday morning, she died. The case entirely baffled the skill of her physioian, and is almost without a parallel. A pin point, It has often been said, may oause death, and this circum stance would seem to substantiate the assertion. The Late Kidnapping Affair—Examination of the Implicated Parties. Michael Weaver and William Stewart, the parties Implicated in the late kidnapping affair, were, yesterday morning, before the Police Court. These men, it will be remembered, were arrested on Wednesday last, having been previouily accused of unlawfully returning a negro boy to Kentuoky. The case, as It was developed before the Police Court yesterday morning, was simply as follows: One night, a short time ago, Stewart hap pened to be on John-street, near Clark, when a negro boy, with a carpet-sack in his hand, approached and asked him If there was not a depot in the neighborhood. He directed him to the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton Rail road Depot, and the negro left, but returned a moment after, and Wished to know whether there was not another in that direction, point ing to the East. To this he also received an affirmative reply, with the statement that the speaker Stewart was going right to it, and that they might accompany each other. On the way the boy gave his name as Samuel Wagner, and said he had run away from his muter, Jacob Wagner, who resided in Taiwell County, Kentuoky, and that he wanted to take the train to Canada. Upon reaching the Little Miami Depot, Stewart told the boy that no train would leave that night, and requested him to go to his home in the Seventeenth Ward, promising that he might sleep there until morning. This the boy agreed to do, and, and aftor reaching the place, threw himself upon a comfort which Stewart gave him and seemed quite con tented. Stewart then went across to Jamestown, Kentuoky, and, accompanied by Weaver, re erossed to the Seventeenth Ward, and awoke the negro. At this time about one o'olook in the morning the boy, according to the state ment of the defendants, had oonoluded to go to his matter, and wished to be directed to Eentnoky. The parties then took the fugitive, put him in a skin, as tbey say, at his own re quest, and went to Jamestown, where they confined him In Weaver s cellar, from which he was taken to the Newport Jail, where he tin lias. Judge Lowe heard the testimony atten tively, and reviewed it carefullv. Thore seemed to be no doubt in regard to the fact that the boy had been carried over the river by the defendants, which was the main point ;.. il-- ti . . l . r , j m me cHso. it requireu a process oi law to do this without the consent of the negro, and thev havintr no such authority, were deemed guilty under the second section of the statute referring to cases of this kind. According to a certain decision of tho Su preme Court a certain man had been justified in this act; but he happened to be the owner of tho slave, and it was thought this ruling might alo apply to the agent of the master; but no uch defense had been set up in this case. Under all the circumstances, there fore, ho would hold the defendants in the sum of $2,000 each for their appearance to answer tho charge at the next term of the Court of Common Fleas. 6cnooL Board. Mr. Stratton moved to suspend the rules, in order to admit a motion that the hour for the meeting of the Board be changed from half-past seven o'olock to seven, The rules were suspended and the change made. Mr. Von Segern moved to confirm the ap pointment of Miss Kate Ashler as toaoher in tne night scnoois in tne rirst, uisinoi. ton firmed. Mr. W. II.

Flint and E. T. Moore were appointed in the Eighth District night sebools, the former at a salary of $38 per month, and the others at $25. The Committee on Lots made a report in favor of accepting the following propositions fr the ealo of luls : 1st. From Mr. H. Maltin, for the sale of 125 feet front, on Main-street, at $100 per foot. 21. From the Messrs. Kemper, for the dona tion of one hundred feet square, noar Mount Auburn. 3d.

On motion, the report, with the exception of the third proposition, was referred back to tho Committee. The third proposition was aooepted. Mr. Kelly offorod a resolution allowing the Janitor of the Soventh District Night Schools the sum of $6 per month. Mr. Powers moved to lay it on the table. Carried. Mr. Payne presented the proposition of Mr. Hiram Gudgeon to purchase from the Board a lot in the Seventeenth Ward, not necessary fur school purposes, offering $2,000 in aash for tho same.

The worst thing that oan happen to some men is to find themselves in a strange place. There are persons who should never leavo their homesteads, and yet they are the very ones to first ny from them, We bear of such every day, and are surprised each time; for, although, aware that stupidity is indigenous to every I soil, wo have heretofore, we oonfess, been somowhat mistaken in regard to the extent of theerop. A bucolic Kentuokian, at the Burnet House, on Saturday afternoon.was swindled out of $118, in the following manner: Some persons who were conversing near him upon business mat ters, asked him to ohange a $500 bill for them. This he could not do, but offered to lend them what he had the amount we have named until one of thorn went to his room, promising to roturn in a few minutes, whioh promise, of oonno, he never kept. After waiting tome time for their return, our Kentucklan eonoludedhe had beon taken In, and then, foolish enough, he told the world of his stupidity.

[Communicated.] j To tht Editor of the Penny Prtn: Mr. Edward Woodman, formerly of Alba ny, New York, but of Jute years a citizen of this city, died suddenly at Columbus, Ohio, on the 21st inst. lie had been a conductor on tho Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton Railroad, and possessed ti large circle of friends in Cincinnati. About fifteen months since Mr. Woodmau started for Arizona with the train of the Santa Rita Silver Minintt Company. Ho shared cheerfully in all the fatigues and dangers of tho lournoy across tne plainB. We were to gother in the same " mess" for many months, not onlv on the road, but after we arrived in Arizona, and I knew him well. He was a kind-hearted, frank, honorable man, of great intelligence aud sturling worth. We came homo together on tho overland mail, and ho burned away to visit ma irionds in tne liaat, liut. alter uuuorzoluj; tne iiurdsmus and perils of his journey, and a long exile from kindred and friends, ho has met his death almost on the threshold ol houiel wo had seen many hard times uud many good times together, end I could not forbear a few words to bis memory.

Tho County Auditor yestorday noti fied the different street railroad companies that they would be required to make their assess ment forthwith, or that lcg;tl step would be taken to compel tbem to do so. Too law, we believe, requires that suoh return should bo forthcoming; and the taxes upon them paid within thirty days after the orgnnizution of the company a restriction which, so tar as we are aware, has not been complied with as yet in any instance. The circumstance has already created some talk, and may, probably, cause trouble. Counterfeit ur Abrested.

Judge Lowe, yesterday morning, examined thirty-Beven cases. Tho Monday morning's business at tho Polico Court is unusually heavy, but seldom con tains anything of any spooial interest. The charges and persous disposed of yosterday wero not of a olasa to oxoite nny curiosity but those oases whioh) jy no d to be worthy notice are related elsewhere.

Wilson, requiring the mem bers of the force under his obarge to pruvido themselves with ororooats of uniform style and color. The new ooat will be made in frock Btylo, with caps, and will doubtless present quite a neat appearance. fThe Investigating Committee of Coun cil met lajr light and got through with the cxamlP"' . of three witnesses. Anothor mooting ,ill be hold to-night, when it is ex pected that those who have been subpenaed attend and have not answered, will be hand to make "startling developments." Ratheb Too Strong. The strength of remarks of Mr. Strong, whioh o rested so much sensation in polltieal circles a short time ago, caused him in all probability to lose his situa tion upon tha police force. He was discharged yestorday by Mayor Bishop, and Jainos Franklin was appointed in his stead. . si Appointment. Joseph Hahn was yestorday appointed to the police force In the Twelfth Ward vite Sayber, who a short time resigned. The appointment is said to bs good one, and the appointee, It is thought those who know him best, will make in excellent offioer. Job Wobk.

Mr. Brand protested that he could remember nothing about it, but upon the stranger insisting, the partita became lamumr. lie staled to Mr. B. thut he had made a purchase of iron at the rolling mill. Just at this moment a person cntue np who represented himsolf a clerk in the rolling mill, and presented a bill for $72 to the strancrer, who took out a hun dred dollar note, which the "clem was un ublo to change. Mr. B.

At length a streak of light dawned upon tho obtiiio intellect of the ex-logislator, and he realized the fact that he bad been victimized. We understand he immediately subscribed for a newspaper. Live Stock Market. Cattle are more brisk this week than for some months previous, and have still an upward tendenoy. Common are worth lrt.ui 2 to 3c, and good bring 4o. The demand is good, no doubt occasioned by the oool woather, which favored packers, but should tho present warm spoil continue, it will, no doubt, have a tendency to check tho demand temporarily. Tho heavy drain ot rat cattle, which the Blue-grass rogion experienced during tho !n?t spring and early part of the summer, I will.no doubt, materially enhance prices 1 during the coming winter.

John Flavin, for breach of the peaoe, was fined $10. Offenders must remember that tho Mayor shows tbem no mercy. In this, we thick, the citizens generally suspeot he is about right. Our Polico regulations can only bo sustained by certain and rigorous punish ment. Hit It -hat Time. A letter came to the Postonice yesterday, directed to the "Most Honest Mnn in Covington." It might be sup posed that our ollioers would be in a quandary as to tne proper person to wnom to aoiiver it, but such was not the ease; without hesitation they put it in our box, believing us to fully answer the description. Why is Ir? The records of our County Clerk shows a material falling off in hymeneal matters for the past two or three weeks. During the last weok.only four marriage licenses wero issued, and that, too, when all wno are weatner wise, predict that the coming winter will bo one of extreme cold.

AV ere we the only sufferers from one of our oity or dinances we should not complain; but we are only one of sevoral who are made victims ol' wnat we must deem ins consummate luiiy oi our City Council. The ordinance of which wo complain is the one which prohibits the sale of ardent spirits on Sunday. We do not mean no friends, do not harbor such a sus picionthat we wish to get on a regular "tare" on Sunday; far from it. Against this inoonvenienca, or rather privation, we leave our ootemporaries of the quill to protest; but the great difficulty is, it atones prevents rows, fights and fust driving, and, of course, place? our oity far behind its neighbors, and tho re suit is, when Munday comus round Monday, that In most places brings with it a busy ses sion in the Polico Court; Monday leaves our Mayor without a fen and the locals without an itom. Do we wish to tuko our stand among the "fast towns?" Nono in this age but ardently desire Newport to stuud firat among cities, and the only way to accomplish this is to got up sensation murders, sensation riots, or some thiDg else of the obaraotor. How is this to be done?' Open the on Hoe houses men have nothing to do but drink on that day thoy Will imbibe, get glorious, fight, ttub Hnl shoot. Considering the privations we won compelled to undergo yesterday, in tramping the whole oity over for " nary item," and con sidering our Marshals and Mayor were left without a fee, we do beseech tbo Council to at once repeal the odious ordinance to whioh wo refer. And, further, if our hutnblo petition is notheedod, look out for us to come down with our wrath. Ijipbovbmbnts The approaching winter U not without its effeots upon our citUens.
