MATTERS ABOUT TOWN.

FIGHTING IT OUT.-One OF the crew on
board British vessel, recently arrived at this
port, set himself up for bully, and frequently,
during the voyage, boasted he could whip any
man on board, carrying matters with high
hand and the air of a Mogul. Yesterday one
of his messmates, who had experienced some of
the bully's brutality, accepted an invitation to
go down on the "dump" and. fight it out.
They went down and had what is called a
"fair fight" and bully got the worst of it. He
complained to the police about the matter, aud
his antagonist was sent for. He made his ap-
pearance at the office, told his story, and was
informed that he could go, until he was want
ed. Bully will not prosecute his complaint,
and will be little more careful in future how
he dares man to fight.

Mr.. Editor:-The Oxford Democrat of the

tions and recommendations in regard to pres
ent "high prices" and "the remedy" and,
amongst others, 1st, to dispense with all un-
necessary articles of Dress such as you can do
without without receiving positive injury
The Editor says, "wear your old shirt and
coat title longer" Now this would not on
ly take more cloth, but be like putting new
wine into old bottles, and instead of injuring
the "specuating Shylocks," would give them
aid and comfort, to the injury of the :" consum-
er." The best way to harrass these Z" cut
throats," who are no better than robbers is
to wait till warm weather, and do as the ma
tives in warm climates do--wear nothing but
girdle few inches wide, about the loins, and
If hats are at fabulous prices" wooden
bowl is an excellent substitute, or perhaps
some earthern vessel found in every house.
would do better, serving double purpose by
day and by night, in giving lessons of eeono-
my, and establishing fashion not to be sneez-
ed at by Shylocks.'
Cai suEScol Dub Ouc HiUft ny WHY Oi
improvement upon the recommendation con-
cerning coffee. The Oxford editor says, g don't
buy the miserable compounds called cofee,'
but buy little of the genuine article, and
then apply TO it such substitutes as you choose"
or perhaps take grain Of pure coffee, and
spoil it with six grains of rye or peas-better
tie kernal to ducks tail, and dip up after
it as it swims through horse pond. Coffee
made in this way is just as good the second
day as the first, cold as hot; and ior the man
who wears girdle Of birch bark and wooden
bowl, it might be very acceptable beverage,
and certainly very cheap.
There are many things which people could
dispense with, that are now used by most eve
ry body-clothes lines bed cords, knives and
forks, spoons and crockery ware Clothes
could be spread on the ground; people could
sleep on the floor, eat with chop sticks, and
drink out of horn. Yes, they could 90 back
into barbarsm, and even turn into cannibals.
and eat each other and save a deal of money
now spent for food. When will people learn
to be wise? When Perry iluminates again.

1Ir "Perley" telegraphs to the Journal
that "while Gen. Burnside was at Washington
he impressed friends with whom he conversed
with the fullest confidence that he has all the
troops that he desires, and that he is ready to
make vigorous use Of them. There is every
reason to believe that the most friendly rela-
tions exist between the Secretary of War and
Gen. Burnside. 1t is rumored that Quarter
master Gen. Meigs may soon take the field.
.B- 1t is an old saying that you can tell
what is in a jug by what comes out of it. We
apply this rule to the Belfast journal, which
says, referring to its nomination of Mcclellan
for the Presidency:
We desire to see man at the head of the
government in 1865. If he can't be got there
before, who will know how to WELD the great
resources of this country effectively, and not
