vorably III the West. There is very little chance
for more big fights in the Mississippi Valley. If
the same result is not speedily obtained in the

contentious than the things essential to the ma

The Lynchburg Republican of the 26th

markable alike for It's singularity as well
as for it's melancholy ful6llment to the bro

Jus. before the war broke out, and be-
fore Lincoln's proclamation was issued. a
young Virginian named Summer6eId was
visiting the city of New York, where he
made the acquaintance Of two Misses
Holmes. from Waterbury. Vt. lie became
some what intimate with ths young ladies.
and the intercourse seemed to be mutually
agreeable. The proclamation was issued.
and the whole North was thrown into a
blaze of excitement. Upon visiting the
ladies' one evening. and at the hour OF
parting they remarked to Summerfeld that
their present meeting would probably be
the last; they must hurry home to aid in
making up the overcoats and clothing for
the volunteers from their town. Summer
field expressed his regret that they must
leave. but at the same time especially re-
questing them to see that the overcoats

to appropriate to his own use. The fight

indignation. They were regarded as men

Bohemian SupcrsittiOns.

On this curious subject we find a highly
amusing article by Baron Ernout. in the
Revue Contemporaine.' According 10 the
Bohemian creed. the festivals Of the Vir.
animals; and birds, for instance. took par
ticular pains not to work at their nests on
those days. The cuckoo having infringsd
shat custom. was cursed. aud obliged to
wander perpetually without ever having q
nest of IFS own. The following Pagan
custom has survived in Bohemia in some
localities Of the circle Of Budweis: When
a marriage takes place during carnival
time. cock is sacrificed with great cere-
mopy. The victim il selected and falten
ed with the utmost care at least fortnigh,
beforehand. On the day prescribed for
the sacrifice. the cock is subjected to a
regular criminal trial; they dress i, up in
pair OF trousers, grey msnteI. aud a Ted
cap; two OF the persons present ere the
prosecutors; third. with big book in
his hand. plays the part Of a Judge. and
pronounces sentence on The culprit. amid
the applause Of the by standers The cock
is then carried in grea: pomp. preceded by
music. to the public square. where a plat
form has been erected. with his execu-
toner by his side. dressed in red. with
his cutlass in his hand. Before the exc
cution. all the bystandsrs solennly ask
the cocks pardon; then the exscu,ioneu
perform bis office; the dead body of the
victim is carried home professionally. it,
head is given to the two sccusers, and the
rest is roasted and eaten. Another smilal
custom is observed in the village Of Cheb
