A FIGHT WITH A MUsKALoNa.-In
the bay, Just below town, Judge
Emerson and his wife, of IrontOn, Mo.
were out in q very small boat, trolling.
With two or three hundred feet of
line out and wound around his hand,
and while on his feet adjusting seat.
q terrible surge on his line threw him
oil his balance and into the st. Law
renee; he held fast only with one foot
inside the little boat, with head and
arms stretched out at full length in
the water toward the fish. The boat
being very light, the struggles of the
fish made the situation perilous, and
seyera! boats instantly pushed oat to
assist: bu, by the aid of his wife, who
is something of sailor, and the
Judges aquatic qualities, he regained
the boat. Meantime the fish, which
proved to be thirty-six pound musk
along, was jumping severa! feet in the
air, and anon plunging to the bottom
Of the river, throwing the spray far
and wide in his wild contortions. 1t
took moro than an hour to subdue
this monster, during the contest was
watched by dozens of excited persons
on shore and in boats. However, by
going on shore, judicial tirmness
finally triumphed over fish force, and
this monster of the deep was safely
landed, amidst the hearty plaudits of
o crowd of anxious and amused spec
tators.-[Cape Vincent, n. y. Corr.

ONE SABBATH EvE.-The oft repeated re-
mark that people delight to be sold. was vsri-
fed again last evening at the Museum. For a
day Or two past mysterious worded hand-bills
have announced that tgrand religious lecture
illustrating spirit power" would be given at
the Museum on the evening of the Sabbath
day. The hour appointed for the religious"
exercises to commence found the cozy little
Museum filled with some of our best citizens,
rather better class than is generally to be
found in such places. Mr.. Everett the lectur-
er, or medium, as be was called on the bills,
appeared on the stage and announced in a few
we'll chosen words, that in all probability some
one was about to be solo, and ifthat one would
go to the box office he could get his money
back. Ofcourse no one went after his money
but watched proceedings
After some trouble Capt A S Oliver was
chosen committee to examine the stage and
the ropes used in the tricks which went to make
up the religious" part of the entertainment.
When all was ready the medium went into his
cabinet and tied himself, after which he per
formed several very simple and common tricks
we'll known to the trade. He was hand cuffed
and succeeded in getting off the ''rons" Then
he called about him council of women and
table was sold to be raised from the floor by the
simple laying on of hands" Then the me-
dunn suddenly discovered that his power was
leaving him, and he bid the audience good
night, and the curtain fell. OF course some in
the audience who had expected to see spirits
float all around the room, hooted and Kissed,
but they hal no right to. The manager told
them he was going to fool them, and If he
hadn't done it there would have been some rea-
son to find fault.
