| yesterday, as laf as Ordinary UuSIDeSS Wa
concerned. Some transactions little GU
of Uncommon course diversified the usua
humdram condition of affairs upon tn
street, and of these one deserves particu
lar and especial notice. Although GU
brokers have little to DO with manutac
lures, manufactures and maDufactor,
stocks, they took great interest in one.
MILL ON CARoNDELET STREET.
Slaughterhouse went down early in The
day, until there was almost a panic. Per
haps it was this fact that ir,itated a couple
of well known finan ciers to that degree tina
| they thought their personal dignity requir
ed a resort TO the rules of the P. r., during
discussion relative TO some street opera
| tions. No matter what was the cause
a beautiful pugnacity, reciprocal and attrac
tive, was manifested by these individuals
at about one O'Clock. which gesulted i'll d
scientific encounter, in which there was in
| cident enough to satisfy the most exciting
| and best educated patron OF the manly art,
| although there were but two rounds. One
| of our authenticated friends, following bis
| impulsive instincts, Oticiated as the sup.
porter of the bottle on the side of Mr.. L..
| and a gentleman acted for Mr.. B. VINO is
| Island and formerly not altogether UncOa-
nected with the steamboat traffic 'of the
Mississippi. The encounter occupied but
one minue and three quarters. The follow
ing is summary:
Both parties came to the scratch full of
puck, and apparently confident Of success
They were hardly in condition for prolonged
contest. Broker No. l brought heavy
anvil stroke upon the apex OF the knowledge
hn M ia ont ND in rat I,
a gentle application from the maulev Of
broker No. in the bread basket long way
below the belt. This not only put broker
No. off from the perpendicular, but also
elected various energetic cries of ''fou'
from attentive bystanders. The temporary
advantage gained by No. 2 was quickly re-
versed by good body blow straight from
the shoulder that attacked No. in the
wind casket and sent him to such grass rs
adorns the pavement of Csrondelet street.
Without call for time on the part of any
recognized authority, the doughty cham
pions placed themselves in position almost
Immediately. Both parties came Smiling
to their work and evidently meant bust
ness. Again No. welcomed an assault in
the Internal regions, again a resonant
shout of foul" awoke the echoes of the
swelteriDg street, and again the atmospheric
reservoir of his opponent received a shock
from his heavy right, which surprised the
subject of the conclusion so that he laid
down to reflect on the matter.
Round No. was fought only in the spirit
and the details have not reached US. Neither
party came to time in the flesh, and those
who had commenced to bet upon results
withdrew in disgust. The c0mbatants left
the ground without having commenced to
display their powers of endurance. Whether
they have retired TO go into training for
fresh encounter, is matter concerning
which the sporting public is thoroughly
anxious.
Slaughterhouse staDds at about the same
figure as on Friday evening. Early in the
day it went down fully five points, but raj
lied later. But few transactions were re-
ported, AMI they were at the following
prices: 100 shares, early, at S24 rs; 100
at 500. At later hour, and before the
meeting of the board 100 shares sold at
S2S so; Two lots of 100 at S2S 75 and 100
1t S29 %. After adjournment so shares
we're disposed Of at s28 so, and 100 at |
500 SO.

nd partook of bountful collation.. But
he most interesting part of their visit was
he inspection of the admirable arrange
neDts made for the work of the Slaughie err
ouse Company. Everything is laid out
pom scientific principles, and the facili-
les prepared for stalling, slaughtering and
