SQUATTER SOVEREIGNTY AT WEST HICKO-
RY-A Lively SCRIMMAGE.- appears
that dispute exists concerning the title to
portion of the Widow Fagnndas farm, the
scene of the new oil excitsment on West
Hickory. The farm was recently purchased
by Fisher and Grsndin, who are now in
possession. But portion of the tract on
the line of Forest and Warrea couuties, is
claimed by one McGee, hotel keeper, at
Tidioute, and other parties, who on Mon
day occupied their claim and commenced
the erection Of derricks. The Fisher and
Grandin interest resolved not to be dispos-
sessed without a struggle, and accordingly
mustered regiment of their emp lOyees and
charged upon the intruders at ''doube
quick" The skirmish was quick aud deei-
sve. There was genera! knock down and
some blood split. but the odds were in favor
Of the Fisher and Grandin party. and their
opponents were driven Off in riotous confu-

be resumed yesterday. but latest advices

acquired the dearly bought wisdom ofeX-

From the Spectator, September 10,J

The sombre figure of Napoleon Ill,
for tWentY-On years ruler, and for nine
teen years Emperor of the French, will
always seem to have been at once one Of
the most curious c~aprices of the historical
fortune of France, and one OF the most
striking illustrations of the immutabllity
of the law of strict political retributlon.
That after two attempts on the throne
of France, one of them-the BOulogne
attempt with the tame eagle-theatrical
to the most ludicrous degree, he should
have actually succeeded in obtaining the
suttrages of the people, and gaining for
himself a real chance of SeIZlng the power
he so long coveted, seems strange enough.
But that, after such antecedents, he
should have succeeded per faS ait netaS in
governing France for twenty-one years
with some repute in Europe, without any
absolute dis race, and then have thrown
away his power, if not in quite so fanci-
full and conceited a fashion, yet in no less
theatrical a ftshion than that in which he
attempted to gain it, is eve stranger, be-
cause it furnishes one of those curious
little bits of complete historical symmetry
between the commencement and the close
of a great political career, which is much
more common in fiction than in actual
life. In 1843, when Louis Napoleon was
imprisoned at Ham, he published some
striking remarks on the government of
Louis Philippe, which contained the fol-
lowing sentences :-"Some years ago,
there was in the United States a man
called Sampatck, who went into the fol-
lowing trade he constructed, with q
great deal of art, a scafolding above the
falls of Niagara, and aGer having raised
a heavy contribution from the immense
crowd assembled from the whole neigh
~bourhood to see him, he mounted majesti-
cally to his platform, and then threw him
self headlong into the boiling waves at
