Seth A. SpaAord. The firm will carry

Two men, one "Bufalo Bill" q noto-
rious character, and the other man
employed on the G. B. & NJ. r. R,
had an alteration last week and agreed
to settle the difficulty the next MORN

city limits. The parties were on hand
and exchanged few blows. Their
proceedings were interrupted the night
previous by Marshal DAILY, and a quiet
US put to the disgracefuI proceedings
the subsequent morning by the same
officer. We hope our Marshal will be
always 50 opportune and he viii make
himself deseryedly popular among the
people.

MIND THE Two ENDs.-This is
good advice. A writer in the Amer

lows: When small boy, 1 was
carrying not a very large ladder,
when there was crash. An un-
lucky movement had brought the
rear end of my ladder against a
window. Instead of scolding me,
my father made me stop, and said,
very quietly, Look here, my son,
there is one thing / wish you always
to remember; that is, every ladder
has two ends" l have never for
gotten that, though many, many
years have gone, and ! never see a
man carrying ladder or other long
thing, but remember the two ends
Don't we carry things besides lad
ders that have two ends. When
see . young man getting fast
habits, I think he sees only one enc
of the ladder, the one pointed tow
