BUTTING THE SLEDGE-HAmMER

For years the STAR has been standing sub.
jeet OF unhappiness to the Intetigencer. Our
neighbor has very childishly attributed its
waning fortunes to the overshado wing sue
cess of the STAR, and day by day has uttered
Querulous complaints that the business COM
munity have not thrown away their money
in the hopeless effort to bolster up that fossil
concern with its omnibus load Of subscribers,
but have preferred to cons ult their own inter-
ests by dealing with a live business paper like
the STAR, that reaches every family in the
District This feeling OF jealousy and envy is
at the bottom of the continual exhibitions Of
bad temper by that paper towards u.s. We caa
compare the attacks of the InteJigencer upon
the STAR, through q series Of years, to nothing
bat the gallant but wearing fight recorded in
history, OF the billy goat upon the sedge- ham,
mer. As the story goes. plethoric old farmer,
exasperated by the treacherous rear attack upon
him by vicious billy goat, hit upon happy
idea to cure the animal Of his bad habit and
procuring a heavy sledge.hammer, he sus-
pended i. by the limb of an appie.tree for the
goat to experiment upon. The billy sprang at
it with all his might, and the hammer re-
bounding, returned the blow with interest.
The billy hit it again, and kept at it as his
blood got hotter, and his head and horns grew
smaller, but he kept on hitting it till the old
man got tired, and thinking the billy would
bruise some discretion into his brains went
home and left him. The next morning, hap.
pening to think of the billy, he went out to
the orchard, and 10 and behold the bully. goat
had worn himself all out but his TAIL but that
tail was springing at the sledge as spItefulIy
as ever.
Year after year the IateUigencer has butted
away at the STAR, under the stupid belief
that il the STAR were out of the way, then its
rickety old machine would go on its course
rejoicing. The STAR has been damaged lust
As little under the butting process, as was the
sledge, but the POOR old horns of our venera.

The STAR has thrived amazingly under the

have no earthly objection 10 such endurable

THE NEW FENIAN SENSATION

Rumors OF preparations tor another grand
invasion Of Canada by the Fenians are rife
and they would be Of q startling character if
experience had not proved that the promises
OF the men who have had the MANAGEMENT OF
similar affairs heretofore, have far ou.rup
their performances. Sounding proclamations
have been succeeded by gross blunders re-
Salting not only in q reckless squandering of
the funds collected from hard d-working men
and women who have deprived themselves
Of the Becessaries OF life in order to contribute
to the cause Of Irish freedom, but in a wanten
sacrifice Of life. Not only this. but designing
men are oday living in luxury on the pro-
ceeds Of the money drawn from the pockets
Of Irish men and women whose patriotic de.
votion to Erin has been used to fleece them
Every lover Of freedom must sympa,bjse
with Ireland in her desperate struggles for
independence, and we cannot but honor the
feeling which prompts the poorest of her sons
and daughters to make sacrifices for her sake:
but it is time that note OF warning should
be raised whenever the patriotism of Irish
men is likely to be SO misdIrecred as not to
advance the cause they have at heart,
but to promote the schemes OF selfish
men for their own aggrandizement.
We do not make any particular reference 10
the raid talked ofat present, further than to
caution Irishmen, to inform themselves well
in regard to it before they venture their per.

NJ CARD.-I understand that there are
lS rumoTs in circulation to the effect that j
was one Of the FIRST movers prior 10 the action Of
The Board Of Health To stop the sale of oysters.
This is not true. my opinion To the Board of
Health a. the principal oyster dealer Of this city
aft.r my long experience and yet maintain it, that
oysters should not be used from the LIST of June
until about fhe 18th of September.
IL l. well known among oyster growers that the
oyster begins to spawn about the 18th Of May and
continues until about the 18th of August and that
about month must elapse before they are fit to
be used, owing to the fact that during the spawn
ing the water Is very warm. and that the oyster
inIhibes a large amount of heated and impure mud
in which it exists. The Impurities from the mud
and spawn make il apparent that they are not
healthy at that season, and should not be disturbed
in their natural beds
Oysters are used in New York during the summer
but it must be borne in mind that the climate is
very much cooler than in the Chesapeake Bay and
its tributaries, and extraordinary pains taken
to lay them out on hard bottoms, where they are
free from mud, and yet they are not considered
healthy in that city. The period suggested by
is the law in Baltimore and Alexandra, and
see no good reason why it should not be made the
law Of this city.
All Of which !! respectfully submit to the honor
able Board of Aldermen and Common Council Of the
our city, hoping that their action in the premises
will give satisfaction to all dealers, am satisfied
that il meets the interest of every oyster dealaE
Most respectfully,
