their hooks we're soon busy raking up the heal
while they transferred the treasure trove TO
their bags. The old maumas were. however,
not suffered to remain long in quiet possession;
the ragged infantry became bc.ler, and finally
snatched the choicest pits. This was too
aggrayating, and the women's rights doctrine
was asserted. Al first it was a war Of words,
but soon came to more forcible argument,
and the infantry were compelled to fly from
the great guns Of the profession and content
themselves with the leavings. The contest
was short and decisive, and did not attatct
much attention, though the clamor and the
billingsgate could be heard above the usual
street din.
SKHF & GAYLoRDs MINSTRELs.-The Theatre
was crammed last night; scarcely 4 seat was
vacant and many were compelled to stand. The
fame of the troupe had preceded them: and
every one was anxious to see and hear and en-
Joy hearty laugh. The company is perfect IN
every detail, AMI the fund of amusement that
is furnished is all that could be desired. The
principle features last night were the great
song and dance of Mckee. The dancing was the
essence OF originality and brought down the
house. The Hindoo mysteries we're an amusing
burlesque on the feats of legerdemain practiced
by the magicians. The clog dance could not be
excelled, as the actors moved and acted in uni
son, producing bewildering effect. Master
Willie Gaylord is, however, the greatest Won
der of the troupe. He is only about twelve or
fourteen years of age, and his limbs are sup
pie as India rubber. They can be bent in any
direction. His feats are wonderful and arc
alone worth visit. After the Surprise Party,
most amusing pantomime, Professor schaf-
ner introduced his celebrated dissolvinS views,
which closed the entertainment. The per-
formances are free from everything that could
displease the most fastidious, and it is useless
to attempt to control the risibles while :he act
ing is progressing.

A gentleman yesterday poured oil on

as ready to take affront rs q bull in the

Stunning, pugnacious never listens to

to the man he is buttou-holling and

fine, he is one Of those ill-bred, coarse-
grained; t~hick-skiuned sort Of men who,
at the end Of long interview, wherein
he has talked at you rather than with
you, leaves you with the full belief that
you have %concurred with his statements,
because you did not fercely and in
words give him the lie and that you
have made sundry promises to him, be-
cause, in response to his propositions,
you did not rise from your chair and
