RS-A HUSBAND AND FATHER PELrED


WITH Stones BY HIS WIPE AID soN.-A
very amusing incident occurred on Market
street yesterday morning, about half a
square above the Custom House. A gen.
tlemau, bearing unmistakable marks of
Irish extraction, had taken couple of
pints more of his tavorite beverage than he
actually needed, and had wandered away
from the bosom of his family to enjoy the
society of cogenial spirit. His wife, fine
able bodied woman, with great breadth Of
beam, accompanied by her son, small
child about the size of clothes pin, came
along in search ofthe husband and father.
The boy had stone in his little blue fist,
and the mother nd lot of ugly looking
missiles in her apron. AS soon as the women
encountered the man who was talking to q
companion, it was evident that she intend
ed to lombard him. The boy opened the
attack, making a movement as if to throw
and falling upon the ice. He got up and
the second time his shot took effect upon
the father, doing little or no damage. The
boy then retired, when the woman proceed
ed to hail the contents of her apron about
the befuddled aud devoted head of the
husband. The man instead OF fleeing from
the fury of the woman or manitesting the
slightest apparent knowledge of her pres
eDce, or the circumstances by which he was
surrounded, deliberately parted his swal-
low tailed coat and took a seat upon door
step Immediately in his rear, amidst the
hearty laughter of the passers-by who had
stopped to see the fray. The wife having
exhausted her stock of stones was so amaz-
ed at the mans GOODNESS and unconcern that
she ceased the attack and resorted to the
gentle words Of persuasion, which, however,
appeared to have no moro effect than the
stones, for presently the man got up and
in company with his friend "moved GA the
enemy's works."

N8NEw BRBwERY.-There was sort o.
an ian opening" yesterday at the new brew
cry of John Reid Co., situated near the
Baltimore and Ohio rail road depot. Quite
large number of citizens visited and ex-
amined the place, and the universal verdict
of the visitors was that it was the biggest
little ale brewery in the country. 1t has
all the modern improvements, and many
new conveniences never before introduced
here. The proprietors have exhibited an
enterprise which deserves success, and from
the energy which seems to animate them,
there is little doubt but they will gain it.
The capacity of the brewery is about
eighty barrels per day. The firm is COM
posed of john Reid, Sc, gentleman we'll
known in the business circles of the
city, John AmiOk, and John Kingdom, a
gentleman who has spent the better part TO
his life, not unprO6tably, in learning how
to make good ale. We wish the new brew
cry the most abundant success.
