A STABBlSG AFFAiR.-SatuTday even
ing about six o'clock Nick Speidel, OF the
Sth Ward, was stabbed by deck-hand
on the steamer Courier. 1t occurred in
this way: Nick Speidel and two or
three Of the Blatner boys, succeeded IN
getting down to Cresap's Grove with the
Excelsior Social Union picnic excursion,
of South Wheeling. When the boat was
about to leave the grove, these parties
wanted to embark for Wheeling and
the committee in charge did not want 10
let them on the boat. Speldel and his
friends, who were considerably intoXicu-
ted, succeeded in getting on the boat, and
Nick tried to get up a difficulty with sew
erHl persons on the way up. Not being
able to get fight out Of any Of the pic
nicers, Spejdel struck a deck
hand, who pulled "a pen.
knife and stabbed Speidel several times
in the body. This occurred near Mounds
VILE When the boat arrived at the
South Wheeling landing, Speidci was
carried ashore and taken home, and it
wa. supposed he was dangerously injured,
bat this WAS not the fact. Drs Ford and
Pipes were called and dressed the wounds
and yesterday morning, SpeideI was out
on the streets, and not much troubled
with nj wounds. There We're no arrests

is little doubt but that the large tannery
building of Messrs. Berger X Hoffman
would have been either partially or com
pIctely destroyed by the FIRE on Friday
evening if it had net been Tor the great
care and wstchfulness exercised by the
proprietor, of that factory. They keep
their hose attached TO the water pipes in
their building night and day, and every
evening before leaving the works To-
sponsiblo person inspects this important
guard against danger to see if it is al
ready for instant use. There are many
manufactures in the city which should

PLEASANT PARTY.

The social hop given by Mr..
VIM. Burke, of the Grand Hotel,
on New Years night, was a very
pleasant and agreeable affair. In
fact it would be hard to be beat
anywhere. The ladies were there
in great numbers, in all their
beauty and glory, and their smiles
and kind, affable gentle manners,
lent a charm to to the scene. Any
number of gentlemen were there,
the large hall was crowded and
the dancing spirited and graceful.
The music, led by Ben Woods,
was good and inspiring, as it al
ways is when Ben plays. The
best of good humor prevailed
throughout, and all the guests
enjoyed themselves to their ut
most capacity. The refreshment
room was we'll supplied with the
best of wines, liquors and cigars.
A bountiful supper was served,
composed Of all the luxuries and
delicacies that could be procured.
The table, as it stood set ready for
the guests, was y thing q L~,.ut.ys7
to look upon, and full justice was
done the rich repast. Much of
the beauty and excellence of this
magnificent supper was due to
the artistic skill of Mr.. Thorn as
Burke, who knows just how to
do it.
We must not forget to mention
Mr.. Hall, the affable and gentle
manly clerk of the Grand Hotel,
who by his kind attention added
much to the enjoyment of the &C.
casion. The party broke up with
kind wishes Of a happy new year,
from each to all, and all went to
their homes, we'll pleased with
themselves and with each other.
and grateful to Mr.. Burke for
having provided them with so
much enjoyment and good cheer.
