1T IS seldom the peace Of a quiet

last by complimentary culsing, dis
gusting recriminations, and sangui-
nary fights, engaged in by Mr.. Geo.
Boliver, Radical leader of our county.
his nephew, Mr.. Jake. Bolvcr and
Ben Byas, Il colorcd Democrat. If
we learned the circumstances correct
ly, they arc as follows: Sometime
back Byas bought house and 10,
from Mr.. Geo. Bolivcr, and secured
the payment by giving q mortgage
upon The premises. No payment
having been made, Dir. Boliver re-
sorted to the law, and gained his
case, from which decision Byas an
pealcd. On Monday evening they
met in the bar Of Mr.. DcMars. and
engaged in tilt Of complimentary
cnrsing. Having exhausted the yo-
cabulary of anathamas, the scene
shifted to disgusting ordinations and
recrlmlnations. Byas charged Boil
yer with swindling the county and
stealing large amounts of her funds,
and cited the public records as proof
of the truth Of his assertion. Bolivcr,
nothing dauntcd, charged home upon
Byas bribe Of $4,000 paid him hy
Scott. Byas, as if disgusted with the
evenings entertainment, and dcsirino
to end the matter, very rudely called
Boliver ID &c of to
which the excited Radical replied bv
knocking off Byas' !:at. Before any
thing further could be done by the
bcligcrcnts q policeman came upon
the stage, and thus ended the first
act OF the disgraccGnl drama.
After nightfnll Mr.. Jake Boliver
came in contact with Byas, and hav-
ing heard Of divers curses heapc6
upon himself and uncle, paid his
compliments to that gentleman by
sundry kicks, cuffs and pummels, un-
til Byas, remembering the old adaec

Last Thursday we witnessed the

county, between the celebrated I'm
derwood mare of this county and Il
gray horse from Monroe county, that
w. IL. White gas backing. The
race was for $500 on a side, but about
1900 changed hands on the race
The gray horse is clipped" and did
not run we'll at all. The mare beat
him 30 feet easily. The mare is a
a goer and IAN beat anything in this
part of the country, a quarter Of a
mile. A very peaceable and quiet
crowd of about 600 persons were
present money changed hands free
Iy. Betting was even before the
race. After the race but few men
could bet at all.

Falling ofthe Stars.

Last Tuesday night was to have
been the occasion on which nature
was to hare had her display of fire
works, under the management OF Prof.
Tice. The curtain was to have been
rung up at 1 O'Clock sharp, Friday
morning. As this has been a boun-
tiful year, stars enough to GO around
were expected to fall.
The last shower of stars occurred
in the fall of 1888. Since that time
several solitary stars have fallen
Beecher and Conkling and a few 9TH
ers, but we have had no shower since
that time.
The last shooting star we have
any record of in Mexico, was Nathan
Faucet, who, since that time,: has
also fallen /; but he was a dog-star.
When we heard the stars were 60
ing to fall, we were really glad, for
things have been very high for some
time. The stars especially, have been
above the reach of poor men. Wish
ing to see the heavens fall, so even a
sinner could enter in, we remained on
deck all night, only to fall asleep at
daylight--of the firm opinion that
Tice was either a poor manager OF
else he was not satisfied with his au-
dience, or had not advertised enough.
Friday night w again took a front
seat in the gallery, hoping surely
this time TO see the celestial display
of pyretechnics. We saw but little.
We noticed two stars from the Mexico
Clipper Minstrel company-Hootor
and Ragsdale-fall. A man with al.
dermanic pror ortions fell in the alley
back of the Rrngo House. He saw
stars as he fell--about 5000, 900
he thinks.
We noticed j. j. Parks, nigh
policeman, fall down on the back o
his head as he chased e. small boy
up q dark alley. He also saw stars
One of our reporters tells us that OIL
Friday night bucketfuIl of stars( ?,
fell on Alb. as he was serenadin!
his beloved.
In the early morning, noticing al
the stars falling in the West, the sta
of the LEDGER fell asleep, to dream
Of the wonders Of nature and her fir
w~orks--we don't mean hell by an,
means.
