An ARKANSAS Town IN A STARVING STATE.
The Camden (Ark.) } Star says that from
present indications, Camden is in fair way
to starve out. II is almost impossible to get
provisions of any kind. Hams are selling at
Twenty-Five cents per pound, and 1t is very
scarce at eight cents, and cornmeal is selling
at the exorbitant price of two dollars and
seyentyrfve cents per bushel. The river is
so low that boats can not run, and no pros

A London correspondent says The princes
of the day, much more thought Of followed
and cheered than any on the ground, were
John Q. Heenhn and Tom Sayers, who went
and cracked a bottle Of champagne together
at Nicholson's booth with great apparent
affection. 1t is said that they were presented
to the Princess Mary of Cambridge, but you

SUNDAY AMUsEMBNTs IN OKCINNATI--PRizE
FIGHT ON WALNUT HuLs.-A prize fight took
place last Sunday afternoon, on Walnut
Hills, between Gus Depaire alias 'Tndian-
apolis Pet" and the 'Deer-creek Champion"
whose name we could not ascertain. The
Pet stands hve feet nine, and was seconded
by William Burns, while the Champion is
over six feet high, and was seconded by Tilly
King. Fourteen rounds were fought, lasting
about thirty-6ye minutes, when the "Petn
failed to come to time, and the "Championr
was declared the victor. Both the parties
showed considerable science and some game,
but the endurance ofneither win do TO bet on.
- The Pets pimple was pummeled by the
champion until 1t looked like the mob of an
Egyptian mummy while his conk, optics and
kisser were covered with the blue marks Of
the Champion's mauleys. 1850
The Champion himself was considerably
punished, though not so badly as the Pet, and
his right peeper Is said to be dangerously In
jured, the right flpper also is badly broken
and swollen, and he found the Pets knowl-
edge-box much harder than he anticipated,
for it stopped his blows beautifully, and the
only effect, at the moment seemed to be upon
his daddle. ,l z a, -
The fight was conducted after the hest
style, and when the sponge went up the con-
gratulations the winner received were inn
mense. II was witnessed by large crowd,
and for an affair Of that kind, was very quiet
and peaceable,

ADRo1T AND AupAcIous ROBBERY IN HA-
vANA--A LADY Strapped OF HER JEWELS IN
DAYL1GHT.7Some little time since a lady of
great respectability, who. had been in the
United States and seen their ladies 20 shop
ping on foot, got out Of her volante in Ha-
yana, desiring the postillion to wait there and
then walked up the street designing to make
some purchases at one of the stores. She
had proceeded about half way up the street
when she met well dressed man who ac-
costed her in language somewhat like the
following, "You harlot | have caught you
at last, have /, parading the streets TO visit
your lovers l suppose, decked out, too, in all
the jewelry have worked so hard to give
you, but give it me and do what you please
Il will have nothing more TO do with you,"
and, suiting the action to the word, he tore
from the lady's person her valuable gold
watch; mounted in brilliants, her brooch and
the other costly jewelry she had on her per-
son, while she, poor woman, was 30 surprised
at the attack, stood trembling with fear, un-
able to utter word. ,-g .t
The scoundrel then walked off at rapid
pace, and the poor lady, being partially re-
covered, addressed some young men standing
at store-door near by, asking how they
could see a lady robbed in their presence and
not come to her assistance. "We thought,
Senora," they replied, "the caballero was
your husband" .. .sfn

A WoMAN's OPINION OF AMoRoUs POETRY
AND CoNcEITED YAHoo.--Mrs. Juliette Fl.
Beach, in a review of Walt Whitmau's
Leaves of Grass, makes some frank avowals
" am not at all squeamish," +" she says. ''Not
easily shocked either. adore the beautiful
and grow impassioned as drink in the vo-
luptuous in art or poetry. Amorous poetry,
so far from being to me offensive, is delight
ful, and the soft liquid lines of tender love,
and the deep strains of burning passion,
seem to me alike fit hymns for men to offer
up" As for Whitman, however, it is her
candid opinion that che certainly has not
soul enough to be saved: I hardly think he
has enough TO be damned" II.
