FRUIT AND MATRIM0NY-SINGULARR RESULT
OF AN EXPEDITION TO A PEACH-O ORCHARD
Although the adage that "love laughs at
locksmiths," has become household word,
and its truth universally acknowledged, yet
here and there an inveterate parent will
throw himself into the breach, aud endeavor
to arrest the DEGREES of fate. 1t would APP
pear reasonable to suppose that the inglo-
rious dsappointments of those who have
heretofore attempted the same thing, would
serve as an admonition to modern fathers; but
nothing but Individual experience appears
sufficient to teach lesson TO those who love
lucre more than worth. .o.tl4ilg .ts !.
An instance illustrative of this occdrred
day before yesterday, near Boston Station,
in this county. A young and beautiful girl
we will not tell her age for she was past
eighteen-had long been an object of devo-
ton of young gentleman who resided in
the vicinity, but nothing could induce her
father TO consent that the parties should be
made one, and at length his presence was
forbidden. 1000 y .r
Day before yesterday, the lady was visited
by number of young ladies and gentlemen,
who proposed that she should accompany
them to Demosville, FIVE miles down the rail-
road, 10 large peach orchard, to which pro-
posai she consented, with haPparentreluctance
after being urged to do so by her parents,
who hoped thus to Danish her thoughts from
her forbidden lover. No sooner however,
had the train left the station than her be-
trothed stepped from place Of conce alment
in the baggage car, and took q seat by her
side.fr .ttu -aaI
What passed between the parties, we are
unable to say but so rapidly did the mo-
ments fly, that the conductors admonition---
| "Demosville' to attract their atten-
ton, and as the company that was with them
did not wish to abruptly intrude upon the
pleasant conversation, the lovers did not fully
realize their situation until after arriving al
the Madison House, in Cincinnati, where they
were declared one by the proper authorities
4 and permitted to enjoy the full measure o
happiness which before had only been glim
meringin the distance. The parties returned
their reception we have not learned.

BOARD OF Cry 1MPKovEMENTs.-At the
regular semi-weekly session Of the Board of
City Improvements, yesterday morning. the
following communication from George
George, Decatur Wiley and w. Craven, was
read and referred to the Commissioner of the
Western District: ..r
1--WE, the undersigned, residents Of the
West End, do humbly pray your honorable
body TO examine the bridge over the White
water Canal, at Carr-street. IL is in dilap-
idated condition, and almost impossible.
The tifhbers are almost rotten, the floor
is worn through. While we ask this, we at
the same time thank your honorable body
for past favors, and have confidence that you
will notice this communication, with the
respect heretofore shown us in this part of
our city,"
The following, which was referred to the
same Commissioner in connection with the
City Civil Engineer, was signed by O. Stew
art and twentY-one others;
ave, the undersigned, property-holders
on Barr-street, on the square bounded by
Mound and Cutter-streets respectfully rep
duce to the value Of property, and add to our
comfort, to widen the sidewalks of said
street two feet on each side.
"As the street will soon be paved with
| bowlder-stone, we request you to authorize
the above change to be made, reducing the
| carriage-Nay from twenty-four to twenty
feet, which we think ample for the wants of
business or travel"
The communication of j. 0'Neil in refer
ence to his bids for cleaning streets, was
ordered to be filed. ---r-.tr
A communication was received from Ser.
Longley in reference to change Of securi-
ties. Referred.
The opinion was expressed that the garb-
age ordinance would be strictly enforced,
and all persons who labored under the idea
that it would not would find themselves mis-
taken.
There will, doubtless be some difficulty
in reference to the putting out of garbage
In some houses there were eight or nine
tenants, which would produce difficulty as
TO who should put ont the garbage.
For several months some difficulty seems
to be anticipated, but when the people be-
come accustomed TO the new regulation, il
is thought the trouble will disappear.
In speaking of the time of putting out the
garbage, the general opinion of the Board
seemed to be that the morning was the best
time. In reference TO the Saturday night
market, that must be cleaned at night.
The following resolution was passed:
RESOLVED That the Clerk of the Board of
City Improvements be and is hereby di-
rected to advertise for sealed proposals to re-
lay the floor of the bridge over the Miami
Canal, at the Intersection of Broadway and
Court streets"

State Of Ohio against John Foran.-Upon
petition Of the defendant, Judge Hilton held
called Court for the purpose Of inquiring
into the circumstances under which charge
OF stabbing was preferred against the petit
toner, and committal upon said charge
directed by the Police Court.
The occurrence took place on the l4th Of
August, in Phebe-alley, between Front and
Columbia and Plum and Western-row. De-
fendant, the prosecuting witness (Th0mas
OBrien), and two others had been playing
cards at q coffee-house on Cherry-alley, and
controversy sprung up in regard to the
taking Of one of the tricks by the defendant.
They left the coffee-house, and when they
got 10 Phebe-alley, 0'Brien.asked defendant
II he recollected when he (defendant) used
to trick him, four years ago, and that now
was the time TO settle it. O'Brien threw of
his coat to fight-one of the company went
between them, when 0'Brien struck the de-
fendant in the face knocking him against
q wall and getting his head under his arm.
striking him, and Immediately after, o Brien
said he was cut The officers arrested de-
fendant, but 0'Brien declined to prosecute,
Subsequently, however, he had the arrest
made.
Mr.. Kerr admitted that the testimony did
not make out case Of malicious stabbing;
and asked that the defendant should be held
for assault and battery, in using more force
than was necessary. The Court was oi
opinion that the charge of malicious stab
bing was not established, but required the
accused to give bail in the sum of $3.50 fol
assault and battery.

Exchange Is generally quoted at nc, premium on

The rate Of Exchange is fiuctuating in Chicago,

SERIOUS AND PROBABLY FATAL SrABBrNa
AFFRAY.-A difficulty occurred, yesterday
afternoon, at the Broadv ay Exchange, be-
tween couple of steamboat pilots named
Marion Hukill and Charles Seeds, during
which the latter was stabbed several times
with a knife in the hands of the former. It
appears that some ill-feeling has existed
between the parties for a long time, and,
having met yesterday, the wounds that time
had partially healed were opened anew.
From words to blows, by the usual routine
of abusive epithets and phrases, the parties
passed rapidly, when Hukill drew knife
and inflicted terrible cash in his opponents
back almost severing the shoulder-blade
from the body. Seeds was also stabbed in
one or two other places but these wound;
are not material. = .lt ff z
He was immediately takss to his board
ing-house on Broadway near Fifth, WHERE
his injuries were properly attended, to but
his recovery is regarded as q matter of doubt
Hukill Immediately fed to Newport, where
he resides, but was arrested and committed
to Jail, to await requisition by which he
will be brought to this city for examination

on the stairs the slamming of the door, the
shot, momentary scufile, and all was done.
II do not forget, in this review ofthe case,
that the defendant was in his own house;
that he was where he had q right to be; that
he was unlawfully pursued by the deceased;
but am bound TO remember that even un-
der these circumstances, the deceased did
not forfeit his life until he imperiled that Of
the defendant, or until he had placed the
defendant in reasonable apprehension OF
imminent, grievous bodily harm, which
could not otherwise be averted.
81 am not satisfied that such was the con-
dition of the defendant. do not say that il
is plain that he is guilty. think Il is moi
clear that the homicide Is justiiable.
ut is, therefore, my duty to hold the party
10 bail, to make further answer to the charge
before the Court Of Common Pleas"
The amount Of bail was fixed at $1,000
which was Immediately given, and the de-
fendant dismissed from the custody Of the
law.
