We have 0 account of the circumstances that induced the assault further than that Mr. Goodlet was called upon to give bis opinion in a case ia which one Williams, a dentist, formerly of Jefferson, was an interested party. Mr. G. gave an opinion on-favorable to Williams, when the latter drew a knife and stabbed him several times so severely that it is thought impossible for him to recover. Williams was instantly conveyed to jail to await the result of his assault. If this proved fatal, tt was supposed he would be lynched, as the citizens of Warrensburg were greatly infuriated at tha act, and the prisoner has been in very bad odor in the town ever since he assumed a rest-deuce in it.

Isidore Pierre has " recently been making some investigations on buckwheat, from which we condense the following interesting results: r Buckwheat Cakes are equal to pure white bread as regards the phosphates or bone-making eta terial, and nitrogenous ' principles which they contain, and are superior to bread ia fatty mat ters. The general yield of the buckwheat when cooked, is about' three times the weight of the floor used, showing that such flour will retain forty to forty-one per cent, of- waterv Between different -batches of ground'- buckwheat there is a great dissimilarity of composition- one batch containing nearly seven times as much nitrogen, twenty fire times the aaeouat of phosphates, and a hundred and fifteen times as much fatty mat. ter, as another. ; Tha bran is the richest portion of the buckwheat, but cannot be digested by weak stomachs. The finest qualities ct buekt wheat floor, and tha white mill dust especially, are very suitable for children and persona ia delicate health, while the coarser varieties re quire a strong stomach and much exercise for their perfect digestion.,,, .. ... . f Incendiary &UA Caution to Housa- . - axeeperav : - It seems that man is' doomed to be the victim of incepdlarUs in, some form or other even the rats are turning their attention, to incendiarism.
