Bkwakk of Cats.?Our attention has been called to a case of poisoning by the "8 bito of an angry cat, which the attending '' physician pronounces as violent as tbt 1? bite of any copperhead, or rattle snake lit ever heard of. Tho circumstances an these: An old widow lady, who livci near Honey's Point, in this county, named Bedilion, was much worried by the raid: of one old cat upon her \ otmg chickens, sc she bethought herself of tho strange method of setting a bai f< r puts, whieli W would enable her to cat h ibe animal by the hind legs and when thus caught carry it to a wood-chopper near by, wbc 10 would dispatch the destroyer olchickens and the old lady's peace of mind, by chopping oil its head. But "woman pro. poses and God disposes," is thi ' trite SHying, barring the change ii sex here adopted, at:d it proved thus now For the cat came as usual for her spring - chicken, und in its perambulations fel pi with the bait. While investigating . its peculiarities, Mrs. Bedelion slippec1 cautiously up and, according to the programme, succeeded in catching the thiol by the hind legs and raising itoff the ground. But what was her terroi * when the vicious beast, wild and mad 0 dened with anger, spitting venom and its ey? s lierco as those of a tiger, wairlep h itsell round, raised its head and forepaws and almost before the situation was realized, bit and elawed the lady's hand until it was as raw as a piece of beef " She tried to master thcunimal by getting its head between her feet, but the ea' 1 was more than a match for her and sne was only glad to let it go Tho sullcring from the bites became ini. tense, and before many hours her eondi tion had assumed such a serious turr that a physician was called. Since ther a lh? Hicaun if such it run he called, ha! become worse and it is very doubtful i ^ the lady will recover. This should be a warning to giv< this "nine lived" beast a wide g birth when in an angry mood, for they will not only show light when cor nered, but their bite is as dangerous a: 1 that of the most poisonous snake. Then ' are several well authenticated cases or record of death in that most fearful form e resulting from the bite of this domestii H animal. 1'kksonal.?Caleb linggess, Esq., o Clarksburg, is at the AicLure House. g Jacob Jackson, Esq., member ol tin e Legislature from Wood county, is in thi city. 0 Col.

I Souk Kxcitkment.? Yesterday after noon the workmen engaged on Dr. Will Bates' now house on Twelfth street, were the witnesses of quite an exciting little * scene. Silas W. Stewart, a bricklayer I was busiiy ngaged at his work, when one G. W. Burrow, another bricklayer,t>u! ^ w ho had not been at work, went up a d engaged in conversation. Burrow soon called Stewart a "dead beat" and the lat! ter picked up a brick and j was about to throw, when Bur, row pulled a pistol and threatened I to kill hiin if he did. The men about the building interfered and prevented any bloodshed. The men have been in Wheeling but a short time and came together, and were supposed to be warm friends. Each man swore out a warrant against the other, and they will be before Judge Cranmer ihis morning.
