Attempt to fog q Munster.

The Baltimore Gazette says that William
and j. A. Richards, two young men, at
tempted to cOwhide Rev. G. 5. Rowe in that
city on Monday morning, at the corner OF
Eutaw and Baltimore streets, the affair cre-
ating considerable excitement. They
charged Mr. Rowe with having insulted
their mother, and demanded an apology.
Some words ensued, and during the excite
mcnt Officer Smith appeared on the scene
and arrested the two youths, who were sub.
seauenlly released on bail at the instance OF
their father. Mr.. Rowe, who is pastor OF
the Lexington Street Methodist Protestant
Church, states that during the service on
Sunday night Mrs. Richards disturbed the
congregation by laughing immoderately at
one of the brothers who had become spirit
ually affected and was giving public express
sion to his feelings. Regarding her conduct
a. unjustifisble, the pastor requested Mr..
Richards, Sr., to bring the matter to her
notice and request more decorum in church
in the future. When told of the matter
Mrs. Richards as we'll as her sons, was very
Indignant, and the latter determined to de-
mand an apology, which was done with the
result above shown.

Just the costume the season demands, II was
doubtless his chosen period. The gods smiled
upon him then il ever. The time of the chase.

ripening Of all forest fruits; the time when oil
men are incipient hunters, when the first frosta

IN sloveny suit OF blue jeans. The Green
hackers have simply helped the Democrats to
