The murder of a printer in this office yesterday by one of the editors of this paper {says the Atlanta Herald) may be explained and justified in a few words. The editor wrote the following sentence : '* No undigested sin was lying on his conscience,” and the late typo made it read ”An old white hen was lying on his conscience.” The editor was discharged yesterday on the ground of 11 commendable homicide,” and complimented highly by the Court on his promptness. Mr Grace is reported to have confessed that ho has been thoroughly surprised at the advance which cricketing has made in the Australian colonies. In’regard to bowling, Grace saya that Allen, of the Melbourne team, is the best in the world.
