VARIETIES THEATRE CoL Mulberry Bel lers." John T. Raymond. GLOBE THEATRE urand Variety Entertain. ment. An Assassin Hong.

The officers of the steamheat St. Mary report that the negro assassin, August, who killed CoL Offat in cold blood, on' the 22d in the parish of St. Landry, was forcibly taken from the jail shortly after his arrest, and hong to a tree on the banks of the Bayou Coartableau, in the presence of a large crowd of white people and negroes. The particulars of the fiendish assassination of CoL Offut by this negro, who has met' with such a swift retribution, were published at length in the Picayune in our issue of the 26th and are doubtless still fresh in the minds of our readers. Col.

Offut was a native of' the parish, nearly seventy years of and was greatly beloved and respected by the whole people, and his assassination is all the more terrible to contemplate, from the fact that no cause whatever can be assigned for the perpetration of the murder. Died in a Cab. A MAN FALLS SUDDENLY DT A FIT AND EXPIRES ON HIS WAY TO THE STATION. About 11 o'clock this forenoon, a white man, apparently about 85 years of age, was suddenly seized with a fit while walking along near the corner of Poydras and Peters streets, and fell upon the sidewalk. He was pieked up by the policeman on the beat and placed in a cab, which was ordered to drive to the Central Police Station.

The unfortunate man however expired in the vehicle before it reached Carondelet street. The body being searched at the station, there was found in one of the pockets of the coat an envelope X. Credo, Post Office box 443, Galveston, Texas. The envelope contained two certificates of the Mutual Aid Benevolent Life Insurance Company, 10 Camp street. It appears that the deceased was: last year residing at No.

The insurance officers say thai he has been under forfeiture in the matter of his Insurance since last Fire in First District Losa $3000. At 5 'o'clock yesterday morning fire was discovered in a one story frame cottage on Poydras street, between Tonti and Rocheblaye streets. The building was entirely consumed. It was owned and occupied as a dwelling by Mr.

Michael Kerns, and is reported to have been insured in the Crescent Mutual Insurance Company for $1500. insurance upon the furniture, which was consumed with the building. The flames communicated to the one story frame house adjoining, owned and occupied by Mr. Mahon, which, with the contents, was also destroyed. This building is said to be insured in the Merchants' Insurance Company.

No insurance on the furniture. The flames next consumed the adjoining frame dwelling, occupied by Mrs. Ella Flernming, and owned by Mrs. Murray. No insurance.

The fire next communicated to an adjoining vacant double cottage, owned by Mr. Patrick O'Meliaj which suffered damage to the amount of $250. The fire, which had its origin in a defective flue, originated in the kitchen of The alarm was turned in from box No. 126, located at the corner of Common and Rocheblave. streets, by the watchman of the Common Street If ailroad Company.

The Hawkins Impeachment Yesterday was one of unusual interest at the State House. There was not a large number of spectators, because the developments which were made were not generally anticipated. The first excite ment arose with the report of the Committee on Elections and Registration, Senator Landry, (colored,) As will be seen by our account of the proceedings elsewhere, "this report was in the nature of a substitute bill to that passed in the House a week ago. The as anticipated by the the Picayune, completely changed the intent of the original bill, and virtually gave us the old one, with the Returning Uoard Included. i There was comparatively little debate on the motion to put the substitute through' its several readings.

The Republicans were too and carried their points by numerical force. It was only on the call of the roll to put the bill on its second reading that several Senators rose to explain their votes, among them Senators Ogden, Goode, Robertson, White, Herwig and The remarks of the Senators were characterized by considerable warmth. Senator Sypher made the remarkable expression, that Democrats foughtheir elections with shot guns; his party proposed to use artillery, and that artillery 'would be the Returning Board. The re marks of the several Senators were chiefly confined to the Returning Board clause of the the Conservatives taking a decided and vigorous stand against it. Mr.

White made a few remarks, which were commended for temperance and vigor: ''I The final passage of the bill, and the evident determination of the Republicans to adhere to their Returning Board resort, caused considerable excitement in political circles last A caucus of the Conservative members was called, but owing to the nun it failed to meet. There are many rumors afloat respecting the consequence of the Senate refusal to pass a bill repealing the Returning Board but this much is certain the House will return the amended' bill with further amendments establishing the bill as it was originally sent into the Senate, and then the dead lock will come. The Hawkins Impeachment. Yesterday the committee appointed to investigate Judge Hawkins made their report calling for a removal of the Judge. Two of the members of the committee dissented from the report Messrs.

Hahn and Gracien but did not furnish a minority report. Mr. Halm claimed that he was not prepared, to report, inasmuch as the majority report had not been sub mitted to him. This plea was exploded on the explanation of Mr. Walker, chairman of the committee, that Mr.

Hahn had been told several days previously of the determination of the committee and the conclusion arrived at, and Mr. Souer capped the climax, that Mr. Hahn knew what was coming for twelve months before. Mr. Hahn'a confrere, Mr.

Gracien, understood that his senior had prepared a report, and was ready to present, and it is even hinted that such a report was prepared two days ago in Attorney General Field's office by Mr. Hahn et als. Mr. Souer offered a joint resolution, immediately before the adjournment of the House, addressing Judge Hawkins out of office by a two thirds vote, dispensing with the impeachment cere moniaL This was laid over, but with the majority report of the committee, will come up to day.

at Danziger's A Young Lady Decapitated "by a Car Wheel. Says the Shreveport Times of January SO: I We learned late last evening that a young lady who had arrived at Minneola from a visit to Sulphur. Springs to take the train for this place, while standing on the platfoHn, was knocked on to the track by a car, when the wheel passed over her neck, completely severing the head from the body. A dispatch was received by the railroad officials here from CoL Noble, we believe, notifying them to have a hearse at the depot last night to take the remains to Mr. Reynolds' or Rendall's, we could not learn which, preparatory for transportation to Kingston, DeSoto parish.

No name was mentioned, and up to the time of this writing 13 o'clock the train had not come in. We also heard a vague rumor that the engineer en the strain was arrested and conunitted to prison.

When the private records of the telegraph companies are brought forward, some very interesting facts will probably be brought to light.
