A Foolish F,oht.

The Milford Ne,os gives the following
interesting !, PARTICULARS, Of foolish fight
between two citizens Of Sussex county
named Stephen Warrington and David
X. Roach, living on adjoining farms in
Slaughter Neck. near Milford The fight
commenced in slanderons aeeusati6 6ns,
and continued until the two men met
one DAY and induigod In violent threats,
!rney did not come to blows but w ar
,Tington went before Esq. Stephens and
had Roach bound over forhis appearance
az court and to keep the peace. Roach
gave the requisite security and was re-
le.,sed. He then made affidavit that
Warrington and five other members of
his family had attacked him on the pub
lie highway aud threatened to kill him,
Under this charge Warrington and the
hye members of his family were also re-
quired to give security to keep the peace
ana answer the charges before the Hon
Court OF the County at the October term.
Then George ii. Warrington son OF
stephen, came forward and made affida-
Wit that Roach's sons John and David
had threatened him and he feared that
they would injure him, and they were
also held under bonds to keep the peace
and answer at Court. Still further Lem.
uel Marvel a hired man of Warrington
had Roach again pat under bonds on ac-
count OF threats and fears that he would
injure him. All these disgraceful pro-
ceedlngs result solely from the indulg-
ence Of bad passions that all concerned
ought to have had self control enough tC
have suppressed. The costs of this pas
sion SO far have been about $50 besides
loss OF time, and when it gets to court the
costs Will be greatly increased and all fol
nothing.

PHILADELPHIA'S EXCITEMENT

RoD the Market Street Rail,Oay Exposures
Affects this City.
The confession Of John s. Morton,
President of the Market State Railway
Company, Philadelphia, creates consider
able interest In this city, on account OF
several citizens being holders of the
stock of the genuine andfraudulent. Ofthe
latter stock Mr.. Philip Quigley holds 200
shares, but he entestains no uneasy ap--
prehensions of pecuniary loss. He is Of
the opinion that the fraudulent stock will
be accepted by the company and even
if it should not be, the dividends recelv-
ed have been so large that they amount in
the aggregate to the sum originally paid
for the stock.
Mears. Thomas and Samuel McClary
are holders of the original stock OF the
company, but we understand they pur-
chased the stock at about Its par value'
and their loss therefore, will be the de-
probation of the stock from its late
market price.

ITALY SUPPORTING THE DE-
MANDS OF GREECE.
LONDON, Sept. "a.

-' LONDON, Sept. "a.
Five or six different attacks were made
to-day (Friday) by the Turks with from
one to three battalions, each and all un-
supported. The attacks failed. The
loss to the Turks was very heavy. A num-
ber of killed and wounded can be seen
lying on the open ground over which the
combatants passed: The Russians main
tain their positions, which consist of
series of formidable trenches.
The same correspondent telegraphs on
Saturday that all is still quiet. Each side
is apparently fatigued after yesterdays
hard fighting. Doubtless we shall soon
attack again.
NOT A TURKISH VICTORY.
The Netos' Vienna correspondent says
the encounters ON Thursday and Friday
near Bjela are said to have been greatly
exaggerated by the Turks. According to
information received here they were
drawn battles and the forces engaged
were not large.
Mehemet Ali telegraphed to the Porte
yesterday as follows:-"The weather pre-
vented operations until noon on Septem-
ber 21, when furious engagement took
place. We advanced to the enemy's in
trenchments. Darkness stopped the fight
ing. The enemy's losses were twice as
great as ours"
A Russian official bulletin, dated Cor
ny Studen, Saturday, says:-"The Turks
renewed the bombardment Of the Shipka
Pass positions on Friday from fourteen
mortars. At one o'clock in the afternoon
they began an assault on the right flank,
but were repulsed. They then attacked
the lett and centre, and were likewise re-
pulsed, The fighting lasted until night
1t is thought the attack will be renewed
on Saturday."
A Russian official despatch admits a
loss in the Shipka Pass on September IT
Of thirty-one officers and one thousand
men killed and wounded.
A telegram from Bucharest says, per
sons arriving there from the headquarter:
OF the Czarewitch, at Dvlme- Monastir
think the Turks will not renew the at
tack of Friday, but will endeavor to Gu
the route to Tirnova.
GROWING COMPLICATIONS WITH GREECE
A Constantinople correspondent say
the Porte has not yet replied to the Greel
note protesting against restriction on the
entry of vessels into the Gulf of Arta; bu
it is thought that it will refuse cempli-
aAce with the Greek demands, and tina
diplomatic difficulty with England will
ensue. Italy has sent a note to the Porte
supporting Greece.
