AyorHER PRIZE FIGHT.-Jobn Woods and George
King are to fight, within three months, for 81 900
side They met up town the MS ht after their late fall
ure and lad some hard words The quarrel nearly
suited in rougb-and-tumble fight, on the spot, but
this was prevented by mutual friends. 1t was then
proposed that several carriages be hired, and small
rarty 20 out TO Kings Bridge where the two men
could fight ont the matter fearless OF interference.
Neither could agree to this and finally it was decided
that to the 800 each had put up, 5000 be added and
that grand fight for the total should come of as soon

Az ALLEGED CASE OF PoIsosIsG.-Sherif Edger-
ton Of Rutland W.T. has just Brought to Dr. Cniiton OF
his city for ANALYSIS the stomachs Of Mrs. Allen and
Mr.. Weeden both former residents of that town, who,
it is suspected died in consequence OF taking poison,
which had been administered to them Intentionally.
Mrs. Allen died months ago, in Rutland and tho
scandal-mongers of the town at once associated the
name of her husband-a physician-with that of Mrs.
WedeeD This gossip took no definite form until last
week when Mr.. Weeden, who bad been i'll for some
time, became suddenly and died. His remains
were regularly inferred on Thursday but the stories
which had been in circulation took such shape that
the authorities deemed it best to exhume them on the
next Saturday. This they did and found sufficient evil
dence against DIR. Allen and Mrs. Weeden TO justify
them in committing them both to jail. The remains
of Mrs. Allen have also been exhumed, and have been
placed in the possession of Dr. Chiffon, stated above
