NEWS SUMMARY John C. HEENAN, the Benecia Boy, is in Boston. A blind man from Wisconsin was one of the visitors on board the Great Eastern last week.--There is no evidence that the poor fellow was charmed with what he saw. A boy twelve years old was arrested in Albany yesterday, in a beastly state of intoxication! Another boy, aged fourteen, was found insensible from the effects of rum in a car on the Northern road. Another Great Eastern grievance has come to light. The excursionists were fed on maggotty ham, and the stewards,--not willing to impose too much upon their stomachs,--only gave to each one a piece the size of a silver dollar. John DAKE, while bathing in the East River at the foot of Eleventh street, New York, on Wednesday evening, was followed by a shark, but succeeded in escaping with the loss of a great toe. Sharks are decidedly uncomfortable visitors to metropolitan bathing grounds. The State Teachers' Association closed its session at Syracuse yesterday, after the choice of officers for the ensuing year, and a pleasant social gathering in the evening. E.A. SHELDON, of Oswego, was chosen President. The next annual meeting will be held at Watertown. Daniel WARNER has received a temporary appointment as Mail Agent for New York, in place of Samuel NORTH, who was removed some time since on account of his Douglasism. Postmaster SAYLES, of Somerset, has hoisted a DOUGLAS and JOHNSON flag over his Postoffice, with the motto--"Man is capable of self-government." It remains to be seen what the National Government will say to the apothegm. FATALITIES Gustavus CHENEY, of Boston, hung himself on Wednesday, foolishly thinking that was the best way to avenge his wife's infidelity. Mr. HARVEY, who drank brandy sweetened with corrosive sublimate, at Danbury, Ct., last week, died Monday morning. The second victim of one careless mistake. The dead body of a man about 50 years old with his clothing all on, was found in a pond back of Greenbush yesterday. There is a bad contused wound on the head, and the general appearance seems to indicate that the man was murdered. A man named Harmon LOOMIS was found hanging to a tree in the woods on the farm of Mr. Pearl LEWIS, in the town of Wyndham, Greene county, on Saturday night last. Mr. LOOMIS was last seen on Friday, July 12th, on which it is supposed the deed was accomplished, and that he had been hanging there ever since. The flesh had been eaten from one of his feet, probably by some animal, and the head was nearly severed from the body. He had taken two cravats and tying them together, hung himself so that his hands and knees touched the ground. Submitted by: Colleen Boose
