beautiful specimen Of the yenuR homo, after
being discharged for incompetency by the
Board Of Trustees Of that paper, staggered
into our Office the other day, the vile smell
Of mean whisky enveloping him, and in a

Somerset, he had lost a pocket book con-

papers, and that the same must be left at
this Office" This vas pretty thin, but We
listened to recital Of his bright prospects
in the Louisville Commercial office, and
shuddered at his curses loud aud deep on
the day that ever carried him to the disa-
sreeable place called Somerset. Then he
intimated that he would have 10 borrow

would lend him the \, but were no, exactly
in that kind Of business, and furthermore,
that we hadn't had that much money since
the war. With smile Of inehable sweet
meas, he Withdrew, and his next attempt to
raise the desired amount was on q young
and unsuspecting member of our bar. By
his irresistible ~ power Of persuasion, he
soon won tho heart Of the attorney ufore-

Correspondence oJhe Gazette.
MILLsBoRo, Sussex county, July 28.
esterday this section of the State was
visited by severe rain storm accompan-
led with thunder and lightning. lhe
ightning did considerable damage to the
telegraPhic wires along the Breakwater
and Crank ord Rail- DAD, between here
ana Georgetown, and tore up the poles
in several places.
In Baltimore hundred the lightning
struck large barn, killing two horses,
valued at from $500 to $500, and CONS
pletely destroying the building.
In this town the lightning struck the
residence of MIR. Daniel Burton, former
ly pension agent OF your city, and tore
off few shingles Mr.. Burion's whole
iaml y wers stunned by the shock, and
his little daughter, about nine years of
age, was burned down one side of her
body and rendered senseless for some
ti1ne, put this morning she is doing very
well. Mr.. Button is thankful the damage
was no worse,
another severe storm prevailed last
night, but no serious damage therefrom
nfs yet been reported. The rain caused
some damage, but not enough to stop
travel on travel ON the railroad.
During the past few days the weather
hes been very hot, and this morning the
the sun is beaming fiercely, with not
much air stirring.
Corn looks well, and if there has not
been too much rain the crop will yield
largely. provided 1t meets with no serious
damage hereafter. MILLsBoRo.

A NEGRO FIGHT.

g
STEEET--.A NEGRO MAN CTTHTHE
AASfSAA1LANT Afas ALI + b ca APES-OT THER
During nearly all of yesterday, two ne
groes-. ames l.oper, otherwise known as
"Budd," and George Griffin-both resi-
dents of Decatur street, near the Railroad,
engaged in frequent quarrels, both being
very much intoxicated These spats con-
tinued with occasional luis, until about
O'Clock in the afternoon when Loper
approached Griffin while the latter was
standing in the door of his house. As
Loper drew near Griffin withors saving
word, suddenly pulled out pen knife
and sprlneing upon Loper stabbed him
in the breast, in6ictiDg what was sup
posed to be severe wound. Loper fell
to the ground and from the combined
effects of the wound and the liberal
quantities OF whiskey he had drank, soon
sank into stupor which many persons
mistook for death. He was conveyed to his
home near and medical assistance sum-
moned, when the physician, DIR. Block
som, asce aimed that his wound was not
as serious as at first supposed. 1t con-
sisted simply of little cut in the centre
of the breast from which the blood flowed
copiously, bGt which did not extend
half an inch, and was not at all danger
GUS.
Meanwhile the fight had attracted a
crowd Of about thousand persor s, who
upon seeing Loper's condition immedi-
ately attempted TO arrest the assailant.-
Griffin fled, and the crowd followed in
fierce pursuit, until he struck towards
Market street bridge, crossed over to the
Ninth Ward, and made his escape in the
country.
The fight was the outcrorping of a
jealous feeling which existed between
lhe two men on account of their united
attendance upon the same woman.
Shortly after the above fight two other
drunken negroes named Brown and Hope
again enlivened Decatur street with a
lively tussle. They pummulled each
other vigorously for awhile, but parted
by mutual consent, from fatigue before
either sustained any serious injury.
Still another fight occurred in this
neighborhood before six O'Clock, five
white men engaging il little row on
Eighth street, between Buttonwood and
the Railroad. They gave lively exhi-
bition of their pugilistic prowess, a nd
then subsidized. These bruisers were
strangers, and were supposed 10 be from
Philadelphia.
After this LILLE rumpus quiet was re-
stored to the neighborhood.

SHOT IN THE HEAD.
About IL o'clock Ia It night the neigh

was aroused by the report OF a pistol.
IL appears that during the day party
OF men were in the drinking saloon of
Fat Connell, at the N. K. corner of Front
and Poplar streets drinking ire. ly and
they kept it up until the majority of
them became Intoxicated. Among the
party. was a man named Mike Connell,
who formerly boarded with Pat
About IL O'Clock they became engaged
in al quarrel, and Pat ordered Mike out
OF Lhe house. The latter obeyed, but he
had been on the pavement only a few
nome ats when he heard the report of a
pistol, from the second story window and
Immediately after the second report he
found that he had been struck.
The ball entered the right side of his
head about four inches above the ear.
and penetrated to tue skull bone, where
1t louged. DR.. Blocksom W. summoned
and probed the wounded and succeeded
In finding the ball, which WI completely
fiatened, as If it had been laid upon a
railroad track, and crushed by the wheels
of a car.
This morning the wounded man is do
ing as well as can be expected. Up To
this time no arrests have been made.
