A traveller "out west," gives the following

AN ARTISTICAL FIGHT.-Thc little VILLAGE

AN ARTIsTICAL FIGIIT-Thc little village
of Newbury, Vermont, was frightened from
its propricty, on Wednesday last. by an affray
between the rival Dagucrreotypists. 1t seems
that Mr.. Kynncc pitched his tent or saloon,
along side of Mr.. Pcppersons. and neither of
them having any heads to take off, began
incontinently to punch each OTHER. Both
parties left the field with eyes blackened bv
knucklcs instead of nitrate of silver, and it is
rumored that each will exhibit pusilistic
photograph Of himself We doubt not that
the students of Ncwbury Seminary will de-
rive great benefit from these pictures. which
will finely Illustrate Eight and shade So

since, We were asreeably surprised to witness
the amount of Shirts and Drawers which are

large number of scamstresscs out of the mill.
The quality of the goods manufactured are
far superior to the common shirts and drawers
which have been offered bv our merchants
from other establishments in the country. and
we notice that many of our merchants are
supplying themselves with stock of these
articles from this nanufactury. Mr. G. $.
