A Miss Julia Farrell has obtained a verdict of $10,000 against a Dr. Caldwell, in Chicago, for a case of malpractice. The young girl had an operation performed on her eye by the doctor, by means of which her sight in that organ was entirely destroyed. The Etna Fire Insurance Company, of Hartford, Conn, has subscribed for $300,000 of the United States Loan, and Col. Sam. Colt has not only invested $150,000 in the same way, but advises his contractors to do like wise. The gin house of Mr. W. Donelson, of Decatur county, Ga., together with 15,000 pounds of cotton, was consumed by fire on the night of the 20th ult. The letters from America to the Opinion-Nationale, were written by a young Frenchman, named Sand, son of George Sand, and not by Prince Napoleon.
