Prize Fight between WOmen--.DiS
graceful and Brutal Exhibition.
Boston, March 9

A bonafide prize fight according to
the rules OF the ring, except that OF hair
pulling and biting allowed, took place
between two women at SumersvlIle,
Monday morning. The contestants on
appearing in the ring were clad In
the conventional costume of CATERS,
stockings and draws, wearing nothing
else to speak beyond waterfalls and
maRent a curls. At the very hrst
round one of them named Sarah Chap:
man, became frightened and Jumped
ont of the ring, but her hackers drove
her in again, and she eventually won
the light. At the twenty-first round
her opponent Mollie Jane, both ofthem
having been severely punished, begged
her seconds in Gods name to take her
away, aud so the fig ght and money, fifty
dollars was awarded TO Sarah.

Tuesday afternoon, without discussion,

The position of the Senate on this ques-

the probabilities are that the repeal

DRY GOODS MARKET.

A heavy rain storm has checked trade
completely to-day, and we note a very
dull market with little change in prices,
which are intirm enough. The whole
tone of the market partakes of lassitude
and depression and unless business
improves before the close of this month
we may look for serious decline not
only in cotton but in wooden and silken
goods.

THE ENGLISH PRESS ON GRANTS
INAUGURAL.

The paragraph in President
Grants Inaugural in which, after
declaring that he would respect the
rights of all nations and demand
equal respect for our own, he adds
''if others depart from this rule in
dealing with US, we may be compell
ed to follow their precedent" has
the effect to produce a commotior
on the other side Of the Atlantic
The entire English press is exer
cised over the matter, though none
of them pretend to sufficient sagacity
to determine what the Presiden
means by his allusion to "the pre-,
ceden.," yet all admit that it has an
awful squirting toward the Alabama
Claims. The Pail Nall Gazette de.
clares that, If the President does
really refer to the Alabama claims,
"Great Britain will have no cause
for alarm, provided that the reprisals
hint d at are strictly limited to the
reproduction Of the wrongs from
which the United States have really
suffered British merchants will
have no right to complain if an en-
emy's cruiser should hereafter escape
from an American port merely
through the accidental illness of one
of the United States law-officers, or
through a misconception on the part
of the weight of the evidence sub
mitted to them by the President.
We confess that this is putting a
very plausible face on q matter that
has entirely ruined American COM
merce. We would respectfully refer
these English journals-for they
mostly agree upon this matter-to
the following extract from speech
OF one their own statesmen-Mr.
Cobden-on the floor of House of
Commons, in 1864: "You have been
carrying on war from these shores
with the United States, and have been
intiicting an amount of damage on
that country greater than would be
produced by many ordinary wars.
1t is estimated that the loss sustain
ed by the capture and burning of
American vessels has been about
s15, 100000, or nearly eS,oOO,0O0
sterling. But that is small part
of the injury which has been inflicted
on the American marine. We have
rendered the restof her vast mercantile
property useless. Why, if you
had gone and helped the Confede-
rates by bombsrding all the accessi-
BILE seaport towns of America, q few
lives might have been lost, which, as
it is, have not been sacrificed; but
you could hardly have done more
injury IN the way of destroying prop
erty than you have done by these
few cruisers

DEATH OF HON. &c. PENNISTEN.


The telegraph brings us the sad
tidings OF the death of this gentle.
man, member of the Legislature from
Pike county, who died at his resi-
dence in Waverly last Friday of con-
sumption \ startling verifcation
of the saying that in the midst Of
life we are in death" We little
thought wheE, on the beautiful Sab
bath morning, few short months
ago, we clasped hands with Mr.. Pen
nisten, in the reception-room of the
Penitentiary, that we should meet
him no more forever. His step was
was firm and elastic, his cheek was
mantled with the Toseate tint o.
health, and none who knew him
would have dreamed that his end
was so nigh at hand. He was
young, unmarried man. of more than
ordinary promise, and though an
uncompromising Democrat, was
genial. kind-hearted man. Through
the most unrelentiug and bitter
political warfare we found him a
firm personal friend. His funeral
was attended by delegation of his
fellow-legislators- The obsequies
were conducted by the Masons and
/. o. O. F., of both of which Orders
he was a member. "Green be the
turf above him"

TAKING HIS OWN MEDICINE.

Our Delghbor ofthe Courier snort
time since quoted Don Piatt in rela
tion to the execution OF Mrs. Surratt.
Don las always been of the opinion
that Mrs. Surratt suffered unjustly,
and has the independence and manli-
ness to say so. Our neighbor ssizes
the crumb with avidity and rolls it
under his tongue ss q sweet morsel.
Now Don Piatt is-rather good au-
thority, and we are glad to see our
neighbor quote him. But if he is
good authority on that subject-pray
why should he not be on others? Our
neighbor prescribes his articles for
his readers. Now, will he have the
courage to take some OF the Colonel's
medicine himself? This article, for
instance, in which Don gives his
opinion upon the Democratic "edit-
ors of the country printing!
'Let any one open a Democratic
paper-not the World nor the En-
quirxr-but one of your back country
affairs, where the proprietor keeps
his family out of the poor-house by
editing the county printing, and read
the bitter, malignant, narrow-minded
contents, if one wants to get down
to the level of the popular Democrat
ic mind. The hate equals the igno-
rance; and both, to E thoughtful,
Christian mind, are almost incom-
prehensible. Meanness and cruelty
vie with each other, and the platform
is narrowed down to disposition to
kill 8 anigger.
"With such masses there is only |
one way to win--and that is, to re
lease them oftaxation. and give them
easy times. 1t is all very well to
make eloquent appeals in behalf OF
their humanities, and grow virtuous
ly indignant over the propositions to
repudiate the public debt; but the
effect on such crowds is very like La
Grange pouring out the heaven born
strains of Verdi to q pen of hogs,
where the divine music is drowned
by squeals for slops.
The Hancock Jeffersonian. [volume] (Findlay, Ohio) 1857-1870, 1869-03-26

The recent debate in the House
on the Indian Appropriation bill was
the cause of some very humiIiating
Developments. Mr.. LswraDce, OF
Ohio, in that dehs5e, said:
"Treaties have been pnt through
the Senate when there were not six
Senators present. Every man who
participatsd d IN q fraud OF that SORT
is unfit to occupy a seat in any de
Lucrative body. l wish to God |
could reach the Senate and the ears
of every man in the country, until
the Senate should be compelled to
nav some heed to the voice of the
people, and have some respect for
the interests of the people, instead
of squanderipg their money!
There is bill now before the
Senate to consider these Indian trea-
ties in open session instead of in Sc
cret session as heretofore. The fact
that such charges as the above can
be openly made on the door of the
House is an evidence that this re-
form comes none too soon. The
people will be interested to know
who votes against this bill when it
is put upon its passage.
