Two HEROES. Before the recent rebel
lion, Col. W, met there some hot
blooded Southerner, with a spirit as fiery
as his own. They quarrelled-a challenge
was passed and accepted, and the next ris-
ing sun was to witness one, if not both, of
their dead bodies, drenched in blood, to
wash out wounded honor During the
night, the colonel said he heard boat
coming up the river, and it struck him, as
he heard the boat putting and blowing, that
prudence was the better part of valor !"
So he took his trunk upon his shoulder,
and stepped, in the dead of the night, very
quietly out of the hotel. As he neared
the boat, whom should he see but his an
tagonist, at the boat before him, just go
ing on board He returned as he had gone
out, and was on the ground next morning,
with his second, waiting, with disappoin-
ted wrath, for his antagonist, and publish
ed him as an absconding scoandrel.

Fire Alarm.

We attended meeting of number o
citizens, including the Mayor and some
the Council, last evening, to witness an ex-
hibition of ''fre alarm" at the Office OF
the Western Union Telegraph Office. Mr..
Gamewell exhibited his apparatus, showing
practically how alarms of fire could be IN
stantly almost made all over the city. 1t
would be almost impossible to describe the
workings of his ''automaton, yet it IS so
simple and at the same time so effective that
any person of ordinary intelligence can give
a fire alarm from any quarter toall quarters
of the city. Mr.. Gamewell, who came to
exhibit his apparatus, will take pleasure IN
explaining the operation to all who will call
on him at the Telegraph Office. This same
apparatus is in use in many of the principal
cities of the country. From our observa-
ton, we will unhesitatingly pronounce II

New Thcatcr.

The new play Of Formosa was presented
for the second time last night at the New
Theaterto a large, but not crowded audience.
There was marked improvement in the
rendition of the various characters. and
altogether the piece was rendered with
more effect than on its first representation.
While there is not much in the plot 90 ad-
mire. there Is nothing really 10 condemn.
and its merits consist chiefiyin Its adaptation
for the STAGE. and the versatility Of the
characters that make up the cast. The
different parts were exceedingly well per
sonated. and the piece, take it all IN all, has
been placed on the boards with success.
Tonight, the great moral drama OF Ten
Nights in a Bar-Room. viii be presented,
to be followed by the glorious farce Of Mr..
and Mrs Peter White-Ratclifie as Peter,
and Miss Jennie Wilmore as Mrs. Peter

amounting to 43g head, of which 304 head were
sold Most Of the offerings were Of the common
and inferior quality. The market for this class OF
stock ruled duh, and prices were IN some cases
ruinous to drovers This may be expected when it
is known that this class of stock is always hard to
sell on any market; and we would again warn
drovers to handle nothing but ia. stock they ex-
pect to realize a profit in their business. Good
butcher cattle were brisk, and sold readily at fair
prices None of this class Of stock remain on sale

rhc Condition of Mrs. Dyer


The condition of this unfortunate and |
III used woman, is still critically dangerous. |
The whole circumstances Of this iendlsh
transaction, invest it with an enornity OF
turpitude, calculated to make ones marrow
freeze in the bones, and the blood TO curdle
coldly about the heart. Repeated injuries
withheld from the public, and borne with
the patience which woman only knows
how to exhibit, had long been inflicted.
This forbearance only increased the lndlg-
mites of the insensate monster, who IN the
days Of her rosy girlhood, had sworn to
love, cherish and protect. She at last,
when driven to extremities, appealed TO
I the law for that protection, which natural
