4 Row.-On Monday evening occurred a
row. the origin Of which VIC have not been
able fully to ascertain, which though it re-
suited in no serious harm gives promise of
future danger. There was much shooting
and threatening language, and n collision
seemed imminent between the white and
co!orcd people, the latter doing the shooting
and threatening. As an investigation will

FINE AND FAT.-One Of the finest, fatte.t
and tendcrcst bccrcs ever offered in Newbcr-
~, was slaughtered by A. Harris on Tuesday
1t went off like hot cake, everybody wanted
a aslicc. If we could have such beef every day
the citizens Of this town would grow strong
and stout, and if Harris could regularly fur
nish the like he would be a public benefactor,
as it is he deserves medal for the one just
mentioned. The animal was raised and fat
tened By Mr.. G.. I. Scott.

DID YoU Ovarian idea OF the style in
| which love is made in California may bo
gathered lrun the following raving', taken
from the San Francisco News Letter:
"Bcholl, thou art lnir, my love; behold,
thou ar. fair; thou hast doves eyes within
thy locks; thy hair is Il, flock of goats that
upprar from Mt. GIc.,d Thy teeth nrc like
Z flock Of sheep that arc even shorn, which
came up from the washing; whereof every
ono bear twins, and nome Ii bnrrcn "In"n.
them. Thy lips are Ike Il IhrraI Of scarlet,
and ay soccc! il comfy; thy temples nrc
like piece OF ponc@ranatc within thy locks.
Thy ncc'l j. 4 tower of ivory; thine eyes Ike
the fish .pnpis OF ll":.hbnn, by the Ga'c OF
Bath-raEbim; tn" nose Is is the tower nl lc-
banon looking tow":rl Damascus" Really,
VIC think that will do for one intiallrn"nt.
What the mischief This lunatic mcan', with
his goats hair, shc"pa teeth, and temples
like piece Of pom "granltc, is quite beyond
our mental reach We wouI,l suggest that
the ignorance Of English grammar displayed
in tho phrase 'cycry one bear twins, is not
atoncd for ly comparing his mistress eyes
10 Jack pond, and her nose TO the "towcr
Of Lebanon looking toward Damascu'. -
The latter SimiIc is suggestive Of unpleasant
consequences to the inhabitants Of that vii
lagc in case the young lady should decide 10
blow that astounding Failure!
An interesting Gi+rU;!r$c was delivered,
last Sunday mornin" before the con@rcga.
ton OF 81. Lnkc'- Ehrrr by Rev. Er. Miles.
The theme was from illr parable OF lazarus
and the Ki;h Mlm We do not pretend to
attempt 4 sketch Of thi- logical, cnpacnt
and Impressive effort, hmt merely 10 make
brief m"n;inn. Tho SPEAKER bryan by
clear and pertinent exposition Of the slgnl-
ficancc Of the Masters tcaching by parallels,
and proceeded 10 unfold narrative of re-
markable power and psthos. His por'rai-
ture of the rich mans luxuriant safety,
case, apathy, moral. blindness and s;olidity
Of heart, and the poverty and pains Of poor
Lazarus was both graphic and touching.
The rich mans condemnation was not per
SC because Of his riches, but rather the i'm
proper use or abuse Of them. The reference
TO the facts that riches are not in them
selves curse, nor is the rich man necc-sa-
rily other than a good man, (Which evil
suggestions spring from the root-envy)
were we'll considered and elegantly an
nGunced. The reference mad to the lux
urianuy foliagcd vet :fruitlcss fig tree, which
was withcrcd b. the master was a Startling
lesson. And life Of faith without works
and the life Of faith and works were grand
ly contrastcd.
Mr. Miles is a clear, distinct, and bcaUti-
tirul reader; and in his .cxtempore efforts
speaks ont gospel truth with trcnc!ant
and impassioned power and earnestncss,
which in this day Of cxpcdiency must carry
with it the JUNCTION Of life eternal.

FASHIONABLE WOMEN At TIE PARIS
RAcEs.-A Paris letter to the New York
standard" SAYS a.: At the races on Sun
day last there was galaxy Of beauty,
each riral!ing the other in luxury, charms
and wonderful head gear. Madame Mu.
sard caused one Of the greatest sensations
in turnout with six horses, and pos
tillions in light blue jackets, making an
appearance almost royal. Cora Pearl on
horseback, though not possessing the
rich charms of her rival, rode her Arab
pony with such grace as to capture the
hearts Of the ring. Adele Courtois, once
the prize blonde Of Paris, whilst showing
the cncroachmcnts of time, deceived
many as to her age by artificial means,
assisted by the extreme beauty Of outline
Of her features. Madame Banicci, Victor
Emanuel's old flame, appeared determined
to let the world know that she was not
yet shcl7cd. Her face, of a remarkable
pa'Ior, and her wonderfully black hair,
offered such an extraordinary contrast as
to draw upon her r'the gazes of the multi
tudc. Blanche Dantigny was surrounded
BIZ admirers. This remarkable actress,
for some time and still the rage, is, not
withstanding the large sums she is re-
ceiving, alwaysimpecunious. Her money
disappears as by crchantmcnt, and ri.
MGR has it that loan of fifty francs
from her "fcmmc do chanbre" was re-.
fused on The race day. Fortunately for
this "grcat beauty" (shc IS nearly six
feet in her stocking<) one Of our lions
playing with her bracelet, behind the
scenes in the evening, had tho good luck
to let it fail and break it. This happy
blundcrer Immediately left, ard nurchas-
cd something similar, handing it to the
fair Blanche cnvc!oped in three bank
notes Of one Thousand francs. Whilst
gracefully thanking him, Miss Blanche
pleaded for renewal Of his gauchcric as
often as he liked.

TRAIN THROWN OFF THE TRACK ON THE p, w
AND h. RAILROAD.
On Saturday evening last as the 7.30, p. NJ,
train from Baltimore was about three-quarters
Of mile south of Magnolia Station the engine
struck bull which was on the track, throwing
the locomotive, two Adams Express cars, two
baggage cars and the smoking car off the track,
leaving three first class passenger cars standing
on the track.
John Owens, track superintendent, who resides
at Charlestown, Cecil county, and who was riding
on the engine to his home, was thrown off with
the engine, and received fatal injuries. Mr..
Owens lay partly under the engine for three
hours with the woodwork of the locomotive and
cars close by him burning, the heat being 10
great part of his body was burned in a fearful
manner. He wasfinally extricated by the efforts
of the Railroad employees and the passengers
when he was attended by physician from Mag
nolia, and after lingering during Saturday night
and Sunday, he died Monday morning about Q
o'clock.
James Donavan fireman, received slight inju-
ries, and these were the only two hurt, all of the
passengers escaping the slightest injury.
The Adams Express cars caught fire by fall
ling upon the engine and were entirely consumed,
together with some of the contents.
The accident caused a delay of the New York
and Washington trains, going North and South,
which usually pass through this city about mid
night, until o'clock Sunday morning, when they
both passed over the road
The engine was brought to this city this morn
ing in damaged condition. The smoke-stack
and engine-house were both completely demol-
shed, and otherwise it was wreck.
This road has been very fortunate in escaping
accidents to their trains. The last one. about a
year ago, caused no loss of life, and a detention
of but few hours, and there were no accidents
previous to that for about five years, by which
any serious loss occurred.

| Irevellick President of the National Labor

cided to admit her. A long address by President
Trevellick was read
There is good opportunity at Denver for car
penters and brickayers in want of employment.
A despatch says that 100 persons of each of these
| trades can find immediate employment there, at
wages as high as six dollars day. The town is
30 steadily growing in population that houses
cannot be erected as rapidly as they are needed.
According to the Woonsocket Patriot, there

Island cotton mills, and hence no Chinese will
DO introduced there, as it was reported there
would be.
The WOODEN mills. belonging to Brigham
Young, at Salt Lake City, had several articles to

position.
Fifteen thousand cotton spinners of Fall Rive

worth of live stock.
There are manufactured in the United States

scythes, at a cost of about the same number of
dollars, this industry employing not far from one

THE United Sons of Vulcan, or the Conven-
ton of Boilers and pudders, which met last week
in Harrisburg, unanimously adopteda series of
resolutions condemning tho Importation of
Chinese contract laborers, as uprooting the prin-
ciples of human liberty.
Since the opening of the war twenty-one sur
geons, mostly German, have sailed from New
York, for service in the Prussian army. Count
