a BLOODY fIGaT BETWEEN TWO MI.
GRt ES IN INDIANA.
From the I

Prom the Lafayette Courier, Dec. IL
Our city has probably never been the
theatre OF SO desperate and savage pugil.
ism as occurred ON Saturday between
two negroes, back of the barber shop on
Main street, near the City Hotel.
The belligerents were a notorious bull.
~, formerly from Terre Haute, who was
the terror of the police of that place,
having cleaned them all out on several
occasions, and who undertook to ride
rough-shod over our city officers last
spring, but finally got into the clutches
of "Jeff, and was compelled to submit.
after being severely dealt with, indeed
crippled in his left arm for life, and the
other notorious bully named Jenes,
who has been employed for years on the
packets as a fighting man.
Both were athletic. courageous, desper-
ate negroes. They quarreled about a
game of cards, when Jonas seized an Ak
and struck the old negro, whose name we
have not learned, in the forehead. knock
ing hole through his skull, half the size
of the poll Of the ak. The blow, how.
ever, did not fell the old negro, who, not
withstanding his left arm was fastened
in sling, from the mauling he received
by jeff early in the spring. insisted upon
fighting it out, and at it they went in the
back yard.
The battle lasted at least half an hour
before the police arrived to separate them.
They were both clinched on the ground,
their heads and chests pounded to jelly,
their eyes half gouged out of their sock
cts, JOnas's lip entirely off, the old mans
upper lip also bit almost off, dangling on
his chin.
Notwithstanding the disadvantages the
cid negro labored under, with q hole in
his skull which would have killed white
man, and one arm in sling, he had the
advantage of Jonas, and was giving him
the " best turn in the shop"
1t was with great difficulty they could
be separated, so firmly did the old man
cling with his legs around his antagonist.
They both presented frightful appear
ance as they were marched off to the
Mayors office, and finally to Jail.
They are both desperadoes, and the
only regret we hear expressed is that
they were not both killed in the affray.
What pity such heroism, such strength,
such indomitable courage, could not be
put to better use. But such is human
nature in an uncultivated state.

a PAUPER on HORSEBACK.
Six Thousand Dollars Lost in a Gambling
Room

From the Cincinnati Gazette, Dec 1871
About month since, we stated that q
poor mechanic, residing on Seventh street,
in this city, named VIM. L. Walker, had
received the intelligence of the death of
an uncle in the city of Baltimore, by
which he came into possession of SO, 900,
all in cash. Mr.. Walker, Immediately
on receipt of this intelligence, gave up
his situation in Henderson's carpenter
shop, and started for the Monumental
city to receive his fortune. Upon his ar.
rival in Baltimore, he learned that the
money to which he had fallen heir was
in such condition that it could not be
obtained for six months.
Young Walker, anxious to get the
money :" on sight" offered to take eight
thousand five hundred dollars for the
whole amount, and finally did sell his
claim for eight thousand. Overioyed at
the success which had attended him, he
hastened back to his home. Five hun.
dred dollars was expended the next day
after his return in purchasing new furni-
ture, &C., for his house. The old furni.
ture was sent to Woodruff's and dis.
posed ofat auction, the whole being sold
for $47, such was its inferior character.
Walker, with his little family, rented a
house on Longworth street at $500 Der
year, and expended quite q sum in hsy.
ing it repainted and whitewashed. Then.
feeling himself independent enough to
play the gentleman, Walker commenced
frequenting the saloons and restaurants
on Third street in the day time, and the
theatre at night. He made acquain-
tances speedily, and very literally treated
them to oysters and other refreshnents
and in return his new friends invited
him to play billiards and cards at their.
expenses.
The new sphere in which he was en-.
joying himself so eclipsed his better.
Judgment, that he was soon persuaded to
visit the gambling rooms. At first he
won at nearly every game, and accumu.
lated nearly $500. Night after night he
continued to visit these sinks of iniouitv.
one of which is located on Third street.
until he lost over six thousand dollars of
the fortune he had received but a few
weeks before. Walker says that when
ne lost $4 900 of the money, he intended
to stop, but continued the game hon no
to retrieve his loss. He has now, how.
ever, stopped, and has sought redress in
one of our courts of justice.
Besides the fine furniture, clothing,
&C., he purchased, he has only 81, 700 ol
the $4,000 left, but promises, no doubt
sincerely, that he will hereafter remain
at home, studiously determined not to
squander what is left, but resume his
daily labor and attend closely to the in.
terests and welfare Of his family, and the
requirements of morality.

A NEW GUANO DEPOSIT DISCOVERED
BY AMERICANS
From the London Times, November 25.l

From the London Times, November 25l
Advices from St. Thomas by the last
West India mail give some particulars of
the guano discovery lately made in that
vicinity at a spot called AYES, or Bird
Island, stated to belong to the Dutch gov
ernment. The deposit was found by the
master of an American ship, called the
Kentucky, and the quantity is said to be
equal to 100000 or 100000 tons, while
its quality approaches that Of the Chincha
Islands.
Two American vessels, the Kentucky
and the Comery, were already taking car
goes from it, and they are said to have
landed fifty men to occupy the place, and
to drive off iptruders, with two pieces Of
cannon. If the estimates of quantity and
quality should be realized, the value OF
the island will be very great, but the To-
cality scarcely warrants an expectation
Of the deposits being nearly equal to the
Peruvian. Aves island is one of the
leeward group of the West Indies, and
lies between the 18th and 10th degrees Of
north latitude, and 63d and 64th degrees
of west longitude.
The island here referred to lies east Of
St. Thomas, towards Barbados, and has
been frequented more or less many wears
past by rds'-egg-hunters. The island
forms sort of basin, with a rock -bount
rim toward the sea, and is frequenteG
daily during certain seasons of the veal

On the following day they return, ant
