Lingering in the Moonbeams.

On pine-wood shed, in an alley dark,
where scattered moonbeams fitting thro',
a row of tottering chimneys, and an avn
ing torn and dropping fell-strode back
and forth, with still and tense-drawn
muscle and peculiar tread-a cat. q
His name was Norval; on yonder
reighboring shed his father fought the
cats that came in squads from streets be-
yond; in search of food and strange ad-
venture
Grim war he courted; and his twisted
tail and spine upheaving in fantastic
curve and claws distended, and ears fatty
pressed against head thrown back de-
6antly, told of impending strife.
With eyes a gleam, and screeching
blast of war and steps as the falling dew
young Norval crept along the splintered
edge, and gazed moment through the
darkness down, with tail awag trium-
phantly.
Then, with an imprecation and growl
perhaps an oath, in direct vengeance
hissed-he started back, and crooked in
body like letter S, or rather like q
inverted, stood fierce in expectancy.
'Twas WELL With eyeballs glaring
and ears all aslant, and open mouth. in
which two rows of fangs stood forth in
sharp and dread conformity, slow up a
post, from out the dark below, head ap.
peared. .
A dreadful tocsin of determined strife
young Norval uttered; then with face
unblanched and moustache standing
straight before his nose. and tail flung
wildly to the passing breeze, stepped
back in cautious invitations to the
foe.
Approaching the other, and with prep.
arations dire, each cat surveyed the van
tage of the field. Around they walked
with tails uplifted and backs high in air
while from their mouths, in accents hiss.
ing with consuming rage, dropped brie
. but awful sentences of hate.
Thrice around the roof they went il
circle, each with eye upon the foe intent
ly bent: then. sideways moving, as i
, wont with cats, gave one long drawn
, terrific, savage yaw, and buckled in.
The fur flew. A mist of hair hun!
over the battle field. High above tn
din of passing wagons rose the dreadful
t tumult Of the struggling cats. So CLEAN

3 Appearance of Sebastopol.

The mercantile bark Westbrcok, COM
manded by Captain Bonello, which left
Sebastopol on the Ist of March, has arriv-
ed at Hull, with cargo consisting chiefly
of bones, and forty six pieces of cannon
English French and Russian, most of the
latter being in excellent condition. Cap.
tain Bonello states that he arrived at Sc
bastopol on the 18th of January, and at
once proceeded to Balaklava. The eoun-
try along the entire route presents most
devastated appearance, diversified only
by the mounds raised here and there over
some fallen warrior. Balaklava itself is
described as vast Golgotha, where small
heaps of stones are the only marks of els.
tinction separating the resting place OF
the officer from that of his subordinate.
The immense extent of ground covered
by the beseiging armies of two great ma
tions is now completely deserted, even the
two or three houses occupied by some OF
the Generals being uninLabited. The
ravages of war are also stamped in equal.
ly indelble characters on the city of Sc,
bastopol itself. Commerce is stagnant
its streets are almost deserted, and the
wretched inhabitants of the smaller house.
which alone appear to be Inhabited are il
a most destitute state. 1
All that can be seen of the once might,
Malakoff may not inaptly be compared tt
a mountain capsized; the dock-yard, in
stead of itsformer life and activity, resem
bles mass of rocks, and those of tn
government magazines m which have not al
ready tumbled to pieces appear as if the
we're abont to do so. There are no indl
cation that the famous fortiication whic
frowned so many months on mighty 70
are about to be restored, nor does 1t seer
probable that they could be in the cours
of one generation. The American COT
tractor is busy in his efforts to raise tn
sunken feet Of Russia.

Fight between a Cross and "Sheep's-
Foot" F


The local editor of the Cleveland Plain
Dealer, on hearing of the duel between E.
E. Gross, formerly of the Daily Times in
Cincinnati and Mowry, in Arizonia, and
the after report of the assassination of
the former, relates the following anec.,
dote: -.-,r,
We knew E. E. Cross very WELL He
instructed US in the mysteries and miseriesl,
of type-setting in Coos County, New
Hampshire, some years ago. He was
First Lieutenant of the Coos Greys, and,
was rather proud of his position. He
went to get his uniform one training day.
but he could not fnd it.. He was forced,
to train with red scarf and dingy old
cutlass, that being the only uniform he
could raise. In the evening crazy old
town pauper (who fancied he was Napo~
leon Bonaparte) was dug out of wood
shed with Cross uniform on. He was in
state of extreme intOxication, and the
uniform, once so bright and gay, was now
besmeared with mud, &c. The Lieuten-
ant was quite angry and accused US Of
rigging the pauper out in his beautiful
military clothes. We. had slight falling
out, in which the Lieutenant fell some.
what heavily upon as, and as he was Q
man grown and very stout, and as we we're
quite small and young, we can safely Ray
that we never experienced such intense
anxiety in our life. .a r -.
At the end of the desperate coDtestwe
found ourself at the foot of the printing-
Office stairs. We thought we would print
no more in that building. We had q
"sheep's-foot' il our hands, and, think
ing we might be accused of theft if we
carried it away. we stepped out into the
street and threw it up through the win.

ly standing at the window, and the
, "sheep's-foot" hit him violently in the
: abdomen. We were SO anxious to get
) home to our parents that we didn't stop
to see how much he was injured; but he
informed US few years since that he ex-
r perienced considerable pain for several
l days afterward. In reading of the Lieut.
S enant's doings in Arizonis. we could NOT
help putting on record our remarkable

Yellow Fever at New Orleans.

Several passengers, who arrived at
Memphis from the South last Tuesday, re-
ported the prevalence Of the yellow fever
at New Orleans. They say it bad been
declared epidemic by the Board of Health.
On the contrary, the New Orleans pa
pers of Monday announce that not single
case Of the fever has occurred in the city,
and that the unusual good health that has
prevailed during the summer, continues.
We are disposed to give credence to the
assertions Of the New Orleans press, in
preference to uncertain rum".s brought up
by loquacious and perhaps frightened
travellers. At all events, there is not the
slightest cause for alarm. The season
is now so far advanced, that if The maIady
should make It's appearance at the South,
it could make but little progress. before it
would be arrested by frost,
