TRICKS OF WAsHERwoMEY.-A cotem
porsry thus accounts for the premature
wearing out of his linen After al
experience Of some ten years in Civ
ing out washing, we arrived at the
conclusion that majority, if not
more, of washerwomen know too
much. Many of our young men
would no doubt be surprised to learn that
during the week the washsrwoman has
their clothes in hand she hires them out
for special occasions, to the colored arts
tocracy, and sometimes to poor white
trash. After being worn until Friday,
they are washed again and returned to
the owner. 1t often happens that they
are not brought back in time by those
to whom they are hired, in which
case the washerwoman is never at loss
for an excuse. This sharp practice is not
played altogether upon innocent young
men, bat our fassidious young ladies are
subject to the same trick, and the fine
linen worn by Miss Flora McFlimsey on
Sunday evening, is soaked with perspira.

The SKIRMIsH BETWEEN THE NEGROES
AND PoLIoE-The advice of those dis
tinguished sons of Mars, "jineral" W. ].
Smith and Captain q y Hannibal Carter,
to their African adherents at the Radical
pow-wow at the Greenlaw Opera House,
on Wednesday night, to arm them
selves and resist Beaumont and his
police, was not, it would seem, alto
gether wasted. Acting upon the sage
counsels Of these veteran warriors, they
last evening, for the first time, as.
sumed hostile attitude and gave
evidence Of their determination to
fight it, out on the line marked
out for them by their advisers. Patrol
man Crupper, of the southern district
police, in an attempt to arrest noto-
rious negro by the name of Bill Dobson,
and conduct him to the station, was in.
terfered with by some half dozen dusky
friends Of the prisoner and an effort made
to rescue him from the hands of the
law. The officer, seeing that there was
danger of his being overpowered by his
black assailants, called upon number Of
citizens, who were passing OF the time, to
assist him. Ex-Sheriff ]. G. Swan,
his son and several other gentlemen
promptly responded. Large accessions
to the negro party hurried to the spot
the melee became general, and at one
time ret seemed imminent A posse
of police getting wind of the affair, how
ever, fastened to the assistance of their
comrade, and by their timely arrival
peace was finally restored, though
not until several of the rioters had been
brought to the ground by the billet
Singular to say, not a pistol was fired,
though we understand one was drawn by
q negro, leveled at officer Crupper, and
would probably have been discharged
had not its owner been brought to
the pavement by a timely and well di-
reeted blow over the head. Mr.. Swan
and his son were both knocked down
and considerably bruised up in the melee,
as was also patrolman Crupper. No
serious injuries, however, were re-
ceived by any one. The negro
Debson was finally lodged in
the station, and with him some half
dozen of his would be rescuers. Such
outrages are but the legitimate results Of
Radical teachings, and may be expected
so long as the negro is manipulated in
the leagues to believe that he is beyond
the reach of the law.

the result became foregone con-
clusion. She reached the starting
point five lengths in the lead-time,
twenty six minutes and few seconds.
The pulling of both crews was highly
creditable, and it was apparent to all
that the result was attributable solely
to the difference in the boats. This
must appear from the fact that while
the weight of the Ivanhoe is three hun

mastery was dearly won, and we
are not sure they will not be
called upon to repeat the trial by a chal-

sral pleasure. We are indebted to the
Chickasaw club, who we're witnesses of
the race, for special courtesies and facil-
