decision before the Secretary of the Treasury
last week which enabled him to givs effect ts
the declaration of the President, that no
employee Of the government should be re-
moved except for cause. 1t seems that the
collector of customs at n certain port of
the State of New York decided to remove one
OF his clerks who had been in Office for six
years, and had an excellent record for eff
cheney, etc. and was also Union soldier In
the late war, while the person recon amended
to fill the position Is ignorant Of the duties OF
the office and WAS not In the army.
The reasons assigned for the removal OF 5he
old clerk are so frivolous that the Secretary
declined to approve the new appointment, or
the removal Of the old clerk unless better
reasons could be assigned. They have sever
al cases OF this kind now under consideration
and the one that gives the President the most
concern is that of Gen. Anderson, of New
Orleans.

SAN ANTONIO, April THE first of q series
OF ball fights took place in this town yester-
day. Thousands of people were in attend
ance from points distant some twenty miles
on each side OF the river. The novelty con-
sisted in the contest of an African lioness
with Texan bun.
At o'clock in the afternoon handsome,
well-built Texan ball, with stout, short horns
for the occasion. Shortly after 4 O'Clock o
lioness was let into the cage with the bull
She was fully grown, but evidently old and
emacated. At first she seemed lame, but
the limp appears to have been temporary
only.
On entering the cage she sprang on the bull.
almost leapiDg over him; this was evidently
in play, as she did not attempt to bite or
scratch him, The animals then separated
and cantered off in opposite directions. After
watch the antics of his opponent as she
rushed around the cage, and he charged at
her furiously several times She managed
to escape him each time, however.
AT length the bull made an extraordinary
charge and catching the iioness on his horns
tossed her about six feet in the air. and then
inclining his head littls he caught her again
on his horns as she came down, twirled her
about Ia the air and flung her some twenty
fl We feet away from him The lOness fell to
the ground like log and lay motionless for
about half minute being evidently stunned
When she recovered she glanced hastily at
the bull, and then dashed against the cage, as
IL she desired to escape. The bull, evidently
desirous Of completing his victory, again
charged the unfortunate Queen, tossed her
higher than before, and as she fell, gored her
almost to death. She was hors du combat
and the ball, not having received a scratch,
was let out of the arena. The ioness will die
This afternoon Old George the lion, will
attack the bull, and as he nearly broke out of
his cage to get Mt the victorious natl We OF
Texas yesterday, it is probable that the fight
will be long and fierce
