fsiNbtAlJo ClHLt1it.-- iicSsiS, NluiiSOu ~
Fisher, meat merchants of Ringoes, few
days ago bought fine big steer and in tax
ing the animal to the slaughter house he be-
cane ferocious, so much so that when they
got him as far as Weber's shops they were
obliged to tie the sarpent and procure more
help.
Mcssrs. Ike lIoppock and Charlie Hoffman
flew to the rescue, the steer was then united,
he rolled up the white Of his eye, took in the
whole situation at a glance threw his tail over
his back, lion fashion, and snorted like an en-
CINE up heavy grade. Nothing more was
then seen of the steer or his tormentors until
after the dust settled all having departed
very unceremoniously. Ike, we believe, fell
down and we are told did as many a man has
done before him when in great "peril and
DANGER and before he was aware of his
miraculous escape the steer was fully half
mile distant. Mr.. Fisher however, was not
quite so fortunate. The steer ran over him and
at the same time gave him tremendous re-
rninder in the ribs with his horns, from which
we understand he has not yet fully recovered,
but he can thank his lucky stars that he is
still one among us. Charlie, who, by the way,
is not the kind Of a hair-pin to suffer death
without an effort to save his life, jumped over
six-foot tight board fence into vacant lot,
where he calmly surveyed the field Of the late
disaster.
We can say nothing of NIr. Munson's adj
ventures but we believe he Jared about as
well as any of them.
All efforts to secure the steer proved futile
and at last he was shot in Mr.. Higgins lane,
about half mile from the slaughter house.
After being nicely dressed, the beef was load
ed in the wagon, Mr.. Fisher carting it out as
usual. Night came on and one of the front
wheels in going into chuck, broke down,
which caused the wagon to upset, the horse
became frightened and it is unnecessary to say
general wreck Of the vehicle followed, and,
in conclusion the last we heard about the
matter was that two blooded bull terriers were
fighting over a shin bone of the animal and in
all probability they are at it yet.
CAPT. JACK.
Our Township Committee should see to
having finger boards erected atintersection Of

fines to pay--ten dollars for each OMISSION

Mount Airy, by all means.

been arrested. He assured us that there was
no doubt of the correctness of the report, as
the man had just been taken up on the cars
by an officer. The day after its publication,
the individual charged came to our Office and
declared the report utterly untrue. We gave
him our authority for the publication, and be-

The editor of the Southern Catholic is
of opinion that the present common
school system either teaches heresy or
infdelity, and he claims the right to
have religion without education, and no
education unless religion is With it"
No system of religion is taught in our
public schools, but children are edu-
Gated in the usual branches of learning
which is calculated to make them usefnl
citizens and lift them from out the
pool of ignorance. Religion should be
taught at home or in the churches. If
the Catholic " man wants his educa-
ton mixed he can have it at other
schools outside OF the common schools
of the city and State. As to the heresy
and infdelity question, we opine great
deal could be said on both sides, and it
would give rise to an endless discussion,
ending exactly where it commenced.

mnmphis ON the Trenton Massacre.


The resolutions adopted by the mass.
meeting at the Exposition building last
evening are as follows;
Whereas, this meeting has received
information = deemed reliable - that
within the last few days large body of
armed men entered the town Of Trenton,
in Gibson county, and without authority
Of law and by violence took from the Jail
Of said county number Of celored pris-
oners, amounting in all to some sixteen,
confined in said jail for trial before the
Circuit Court OF said county, upon a
charge of crime, and instantly. in the
most barbarous and cruel manner, put
said prisoners to death; therefore,
Resolved, As the sense of this meet
ing, that every individual engaged in the
preparation of these crimes should be
punished to the full extent of the law.
Resolved, AS the sense of this meet
ing, that these criminals, wherever Sc
creted, whether within or without the
State, should be captured and brought
to trial and punishment.
Resolved, As the sense of this meeting,
that we approve the action of the Gov
ernor of the State in offering large and
suitable reward for the apprehension and
conviction Of these offenders, which, as
we trust, will make sure their arrest and
trial upon the most full and truthful tes-
timony.
Resolved, AS the sense ofthis meeting,
that the Governor Of the State should
employ able counsel to repair at once to
the county of Gibson, and whose duty it
shall be to aid and assist the Attorney
General of that circuit in the prepare
ton of the causes, in securing the testl-
mony, and in the prosecution of these
high criminals in all the courts, until
they shall be convicted and punished.
Resolved, That we stand ready to aid
the good people of Gibson in every
proper and lawful effort to secure the
punishment of these criminals, and we
recommend and trust that the police
authorities of this city will use the most
skillful and active efforts to bring about
this result.
Resolved That we have read the ac-
counts of these horrible crimes with the
most intense pain and regret, and that
it is the sense of this meeting that they
were perpetrated without the least color
or excuse.
Resolved As the sense Of this meet
ing, that we fear very much that the col
ored people Of Gibson county, in the
late troubles in that county, were melted
by the counses OF bad men for political
effect, and that we feel no hesitation in
denouncing all such counsels as stir up
strife and trouble, come from what quar-
ter they may.

THE GREAT WORLDS FAIR.

Geological and Equestrian Expo
siiion at Memphis, september 10
and I6.
This grand aggregation of geological
and arenic wonders will appear in our
city for two days, Tuesday and Wednes.
day, September Is and l6. 1t has
achieved most brilliant success, being
the only institution of such magnitude
that ever crossed the continent to the
far off shores of California, where it
met with perfect ovation wherever it
appeared. This is always an evidence
of the merits of an exhibition OF this
character. But since last summer its
proportions have been enlarged to gigan-
tic dimensions. 1t now requires one
third more cars to transport it-spreads
hundreds of feet more canvas, and
grand triple circus company. The bust.
ness thus far this season has increased
in proportion as to its magnitude, and
the success Of this great establishment
is assured.
We append the following hearty and
cheerful endorsement from valuable
St. Louis exchange:
1t is the most gigantic affair of the
age, having an immense oblong tent for
the arena, and others much larger than
heretofore have been used by similar in
81 Ia
ried departments dazzling splendor Of
arenic talent, The instructive wonders
of animated nature and attractive curl.
osities of an aquarium, the principal
feature of which is the monster Sea
Lion, Neptune, magnificent specimen
of its class, astonishing all beholders as
a representative of the wonders of the
great deep"
The thousands Of pleasing attractions
Of its many departments will greatly
amuse, instruct and benefit the public
taste for moral show, and will at once
display the wonderful accomplishments
of genius and art.
The Exposition is one of the latest
show triumphs in which the splendors Of
the middle ages are equalled if not
eclipsed The genius, tact and excel
lent management Of its young progeni-
tor stamps him already as one of the
monarchs among the showmen of the
present day, and we doubt if there are
any who can dispute the palm with him
on the continent. larger list Of artists,
male and female, were never exhibited
for one price of admission, and more
costly mounting for circus never has
been seen, while better selection Of
animals and curiosities cannot be found
on the globe. Remember the day and
date, and read the advertisement and
publications dated for September 18th
and 10th.

The snop Girls Of London.

From the Courier'Journal.l
What is known as the season" in
London is about over, and the aristoc-
racy are rapidly leaving for their coun-
try resorts to escape what they are
pleased to designate as the heated term"
which is not warmer in London than
May is in Louisville. The long line of
splendid carriages that week ago were
seen every afternoon winding serpent
like through Hyde park have disap-
peared, and languishing duchesses who
lolled dreamily upon their velvety seats
have faded away like the figures Of some
horrid dream, for a more withered, cor
rugated mass of cushioned ugliness |
have never seen. But they are witty,
and make good politicians, and brilliancy
of conversation is always a compensa-
ton for homeliness Of person. Most of
them have intellectual faces, but their
expression is rather cut with the traces
of hot mental excitement and betray a
sad absence Of repose and soitness. Fix
your eye on one and she will look You
out Of countenance. They all more or
less evince the effects Of social dlssipa-
ton, and impress you with the idea OF
advanced mRidenhood that has been
crossed by love or soured by solitary
confinement" Indeed, if | must speak
tie truth, am compelled to say that
the handsomest women have seen IN
England are the shop girls.
Il is difficult to tell why it is so, but 1t
is true nevertheless, that the most popu-
lar restaurants have the most beautiful
female employees. The Criterion, for
instance. which is a new and splendid
establishment, just completed within the
psst six months, has two or three dozen
EMPLOYED, and the man who selected
them must have had the eye Of a painter
and the heart of poet. he could
hardly have improved upon bis selection
had he searched the world Alltypes OF
beauty are represented. There is the
robust and well rounded blonde OF Eng
land. aud the lauguid but rotund bru-
pette of the East, with wanton tresses
rlistening in lympathetie loneliness and
dark, oriental eyes rising timidly through
a profession OF silky leshes. The estab-
lishment is a fayofite resort for Ameri-
cans. and its DINERS are the best TO be
had in London, though be who enjoys
them has to pay roundly for the luxury
