For Hunting on the Brandy
Ujne Battle Field.

From Phila. Times.
WEST CHESTER, January 15.
The hunt to-day was great one. Not
withstanding yesterdays fatigues the
hunters rose betimes, and by 7 a. m. set
of from the rendezvous, at the kennel of
the West Chester Club. Several of the
Rose Tree, who hunted yesterday, could
not, on account Of business, remain
for to- days sport, which they will regret
the more when they learn its details.
There were about one hundred horse
men, however, and the consolidated
packs numbered about seventy-five
hounds, those of the Marshalton hunters
being added, The start was promptly
made for the Braudywine, and near
Bowers paper mill, in West Bradford, a
fox got up. The run, however, was
short, though pretty while it lasted. The
animal was female, and she made for
hole on Paschall Hecker's farm, near
the old Somehow school house, where
she was left. Next the master of the
hunt, Ex-Burgess Shaner, led the party
over toward tie old battle-ground hills,
by Birmingham, and on John Scarlett's
farm, mile or so from the meeting
house, fox was stared. He was gay
fellow, and struck southwark at once,
straight down the Brandywine country
the Delaware line. The chase was a
fine one. The hounds ran splendidly,
their upright tails, when they were
"bunched," looking like small forest
of moving branches. The country is
rough, however, and they were at times
somewhat behind the fox; at the Della
ware line, between Smiths bridge and
DuPonts, he had fifteen minutes start,
when the came full cry down the creek
and went OH into Delaware. The hunt
ers were, of coulse, well trailed out by
this time and only the most enthusiastic
pressed on; stragglers who had seen
enough sport for one day and felt like
having their dinner, were riding through
West Chester streets, splashed with mud
and covered with glory, by four O'Clock
in the afternoon. The hunt finally end
ed late in the afternoon near Whining
ton, the fox finding his hole in the rough
country along the 3randywine. The
members of the Rose Tree Club, with
their hounds, returned to Media direct,
and the West Chester hunters rode up
this evening thoroughly fatigued after a
tremendous days sport.
This ends the two days hunting,
which, considering the very unfavura-
bic ground and weather, has afforded
good sport. There will be more fox
hunting hereafter.

A STOCKHOLDERS WANTS TO KNOW
WHERE THE MONEY GOES.
George Ii. Sellers, who was form arly
superintendent of the Phoenix Iron
Company, and who is now the owner of
pa shares of stock, par vaue 500 per
share, has fled a bill in equity, in which
he complains of the management of the
company. The document, which is a
a long one, states among other things
that the company, instead Of making its
contracts directly with the purchaser, has
entered into an agreement with Clark,
Reeves & Co., the terms of which are
concealed from MIR. Sellers, but under
which the contracts are taken il the
name OF that firm, and the benefit are
divided between IL and the Phoenix
Iron Company ia some proportion un-
known to Mr.. Sellers. The members of
the firm of Clark, Reeves d Co. are
David Reeves, the defendant and presi-
dent of the Phoenix Iron Company ;
John Griffin, employ ed as superintend-
ent OF the Phoenix Iron Company, and
also director of the company, aud A.
Conzano and Thomas Clark. Mr., Sci
complains that it is a breach of trust for
the officers of the company to be mem
bers Of firm which is naturally inter-
ested in making as large profits as posi-
BILE from its contracts with the Phoenix
Iron Company. The company and di-
rectors deny him all access TO the books
and papers of the company which will
enable him to ascertain how it has been
managed, what sums 1t has received and
how they have been expended, etc. His
prayer TO the court is that they will
make a decree compelling the defendants
TO set forth an account of the assets and
liabilities, receipts and disbursement OF
the company; that the company be de-
creed to divide the actual net profits
among the stockholders that the direc-
tors may be enjoined from spending the
money in capital Improvements which
ought to be divided as profits. The de-
PENDANTS named in the bill are David
Reeves, president, and William II.
Reeves, Carol S. Tyson, Charles r.
Scull and John Griffin, the directors.
In another bill, filed by Mr.. Sellers
against The same parties, he sets forth
that he was engaged at a salary of $10,-
600 per annum a, superintendent of the
woi ks of the company for four years
from April l, 1864, and thereafter from
year TO year until twelve months notice
in writing should be given to either
party, and was to receive as additional
compensation the one-twentieth part o
th. net profits resulting from the opera
tions of the business of the company
over and above the sum of 100000 pei
annum that the agreement terminated
October 81, 1876, by mutual consent, bu
that he has received nothing on accOun
Of his proportion of the net profits from
May l., 1865, until the said 31st of Octo
r, 1868. He therefore prays that th'
defendants may be compelled to give al
account of what their expenditures, pro
Ills, etc, were during that period, &c.
Petitions have been filed asking th'
Court TO transfer the suits to the United
States Circuit Court upon the allegation
that the plaintiff is a resident of thu

HOsU to Eat OUsteTs.

An oyster has to be taken as whole,
and respected as such. 1t refuses to be
dealt with in detail, and be who attempts
il makes a gastronic failure of no small
magnitude. There is only one way in
which an oyster can be eaten. There it
lies on the shell, hard, white and plump,
its convoluted edges matching the rim of
the she'll. You pass the thin blade of
your knife carefully under it, and release
the fibrous heart from its pearly connec-
ton.
Then you lay your knife down, take
the frontal edge of the oyster firmly be-
tween your thumb and finger, bring it
up in front of your face in close connec-
ton with your lips, look at it an instant,
lay your head back, shut your eyes,open
your mouth, place the delicious morsel
on your tongue, so as to sense its fiue
saltiness, then let go your hold on it,and
away it goes, as slowly an as easily as
a ship glides from the ways into a well
coming sea. Whoever has done this
deed once, and felt the full physical rap
ture of it, has one memory, at least, that
will never die while the senses of the
palate remain.
Not only is there proper way to eat
an oyster, but there Is also proper way
| to prepare an oyster TO be eaten And ,as
regards roasting this is the way: First,
and foremost among the requisites is a
| good old-fashioned fireplace, with Its
st. ne hearth, Its stout braZen andirons,
Its white ashes, its glowing bed of Goals,
| and its bright roaring fame Now draw
| up your low chars and your stools, a
| tiny tray, coarse towel, and short
thin bladed knife on every lap, and

The Mexican Burro.

The little burro, or donkey, is dis
tinctively q New Mexican institution,
and have watched these sagacious ami
mails with very great interest as they
plod slowly along the streets or stand
in droves in some narrow alley, waiting
for their masters to return. In either
case they look half asleep and as stupid
as they have been mistakenly represent
ed to be in all literature. Senator
Jones, of Nevada, says that it is fortu-
nate for the human race that a mule
cannot transmit its intelligence, for if it
could, it would, in q few generations,
know more than man and become his
master. The mule certainly. inherits
much of its intelligence from its donkey
parent The fuel of this city Of 1000
people and large proportion of its
provisions are brought to market on
the back of burros. The wood, which
is taken from the small cedars men,
toned in former letters as growing on
the mesas, is cut by the Mexicans and
Pueblo Indians into sticks about three
feet long, most of which are very
crooked. and then loaded on the backs
of the donkeys to be brought to town.
The wood is laid upon the animals
body in such way that the load is
shaped like an inverted "U," standing
up two feet above the pack-saddle and
hanging down upon the sides. 1t is
fastened on with q rope SO arranged
that jerk upon one end of it loosens
the whole load and allows it to fall to
the ground on both sides of the burro.
Sometimes q Mexican or an Indian
with small capital may be seen coming
into town driving before him q single
wood-loaded burro; which he punches
or strikes at least twice with a stick,
which he carries, every time the animal
takes a step. Men of larger means
drive in bands of dozen or fifteen
donkeys at time, they themselves
riding on ponies instead Of walking or
straddling the launches of burro be-
hind the load of wood. The jacks are
very rarely driven with bride. If q
Mexican wishes to ride one he puts q
blanket across the pack-saddle; rope
with q loop in each end thrown across
the donkey's back serves for stirrups,
and stick performs the Office of q bri-
die. If the Mexican desires to turn to
the right he strikes the burro gently
with his stick on the left side Of the
head, and he understands what that
means. The burro will not submit to
imposition. saw q Mexican attempt,
the other day. to make one pull him up
a steep bluff by holding to the donkey's
tail. The patient animal stopped sew
eral times in silent protest, but the man
refused to take the hint, and so the
burro gently raised his heels and gave
the Mexican kick in the breast which
caused him to release his hold, and then
the animal skipped mp the hill as nimbly
as a deer.-Sa,,ta Fe Cor. NeU York

The roar of lighting from afar, - - =
The dashing OF q stream;
And when the stars came. one by one,

She heard the tale the servants brought,
With terror In their eyes: --- ----'l

At daybreak they had found
Tne kniRht's horse which came dropping In,

Stained with his masters blood,
With human sorrow in his look,
He, hurt and trembling, stood.
The lady did not speak. She came
Beside the horse TO stand: s.=.- {.

the affected ear more or less all his life.
and three or four years ago he consult

Justice was bathing in rather rough
sea, when he was knocked on the left

soon followed, coupled with stiffness of
the neck, which indicated that inflam-

passages. The best medical and surgi-
cal talent was summoned, but nothing
could save him.
