For long time there has been little i'll feeling
between the barber and the cigar maker and
about two weeks since they entered into wOrdy
war on some religious subject, In which the
barber bounced the cigar maker. few nights
after another discussion arose, In which the
cigar maker got the best Of the barber, and
there was great excitement in the First ward. On
New Years Day the boys called upon the barber and
told him II he was man he would not stand IT, On
New Years night, when Henry Benme the barber
had filed himself with good and bad liquor from his
friends in the ward, he determined to make call
upon the cigar maker. He took down from the
mantelpiece a gun that his grandfather had IN
vailed France with under the Duke Of Brunswick.
He loaded both barrels to the muzze with buck
on his shoulder. When he came opposite Jackson,
the cigar mans place, the big Indian, which the
latter used as sign confronted hin; In MS con- u,
the Indians hand and Q frenzed look about the
eyes. Thoughts OF horrid massacre foated in his
brain. Behme, the barber, fell back two PAGES
and then he bazed away, both barrels together.
The report rung out upon the midnight air, the
Indian staggered, his head fell Off and rolled
towards the gutter Jackson ran out in his night
clothes, picked up the mangled savage, and sent
teegraphic despatch to the Board OF Coroncrs.
Yesterday Henry Jackson applied TO Judge Hogan
for warrant for the arrest OF Behme, the barber.
The Judge issued the summons and gave It to
Jackson, but Behme failed 10 appear Onicer Ber-

brought into Court yesterday afternoon In very
excited condition. He threw his arms wildly
around and said, "Shudgc Hogan, ! bay all dc
damages. Dot man Jackson and me have lecte
fight. l don't want noding but what is right.
Alderman Moore knows me. Tim Brennan he
knows me. Every one In the First ward knows me.

asked for permission to go for his ball. which was
denied him, and he was escorted down stairs be.

On the l lth inst, Hooper, Reese, &
Co. Baltimore bankers. were swindled
ont of SIS 90, by the payment of bogus
draft for that amount, purporting to be
drawn by Gibson, Casanova & Co., bank
ers of New York, payable to the order
of Il. S. Knox.
Tie Baltimore firm had received a
telegram the same day, bearing the name
of the New York firm, advising of the
draft and stating the amount, and the
draft was paid on presentation.
The fraud was successful owing to the
fact that the same party had, short
time previous, presented two genuine
drafts from the same firm in New York,
each of which they advised the Balti-
more firm by telegraph.
Knox is described as Of gentlemanly
appearance, 35 to 40 years old, English

4 DARING robbery was perpetrated OIL
the 18th, on the Mechanics Bank of Ian
caster. Between twelve and one o'clock
two men engaged the cashier's attention
who was alone in the bank, by selling
seventy five dollars in gold and silver,
the latter being in small PIECES.
One of the men had on screeching
boots, and walked continually while bis
confederate and the cashier were count
ing the money. Pending the negotiation
third party entered the bank by a rear
window and entered the vaul; which was
open, and distracted convertible bonds
to the amount of over six thousand dol
lars. and other registered and judgment
bonds amounting to over forty thousand
dollars
The thieves four in number, were seen
about the bank during the forenoon, and
the men who entered from the rear were
seen by women in the restaurant under
the bank, but were, of course, not gus
pected. The parties who sold the specie
were well dressed, one being about five
feet five inches high, horid complexion
and dark mustacbc, and weighs probably
about one hundred and forty pounds
The other was six feet in height aud
sparsely built. No clue to their where
abouts has been obtained.

In the town of Wheatland, Mercer CO.,
according to the Sharon Times, there is
a child which strikingly resembles the
sea lion, exhibited in Barnum's show
last summer. The Times explains the
matter by saying that a young mar; led
woman of Whea,land who. as Dickens
would say, was in "an interesting con-
dition," visited Barnum's show while
it was in Sharon, in June. She was at
trac:ed to the cage in which the sea lions
were kept, and for some reason become
fascinated with those monsters. which
kept her chained to the spot. She made
several attempts to withdraw. but for a
long time could not succeed, some ire
sisiible influence having retained her to
the place. At the time this was not
thought remarkable, as the rarity of the
animals, their peculiar shape. habits and
everything contributed to make the thing
natural.
