action Of the water will remedy this.

On Tuesday afternoon there was quite fight on
the road between this city and South Saltwater.
1t appears that Bell, who has the stage on the
road between the two towns, had among other
passengers West Melnger ex-policeman,
who was pretty full on tangle-leg. Among the
goods being taken by the stage some cases
of porter, and the ex-polceman being thirsty and
muddled, thought he could not do better than
help himself TO this the driver, Bell, objected,
and he struck Mellinger. This was the signal
for scrimmage. number OF ladies who were
nm no sfu 70 ont and nrocppded n n foot while
Bell and Mellinger proceeded TO settle the matter
then and there, male passenger being the wit
ness. The policeman got badly done up, and
Bell wears the marks Of the scufile. Bell and his
passengers rode triumphantly into Baytown,
while Mellinger had to take shanks horses to
get home, and he looked as if he had gone
through a threshing mill. The mighty arm Of
the law is to be called on to settle the matter
On Sunday next Bishop Ireland, assisted by
Abbot Alexius Edelbrock of st. Johns Abbey
Stearns county, will dedicate the new German
Catholic church of the Immaculate Conception
They will be assisted by number of priests, and
as the ceremonies are most impressive, doubt
very large attendance will be present. One
thing is to be regretted, and that is, the party in
Baltimore who has been furnishing the beautiful
stained glass windows has only on hand part of
them, although he promised to have them
here some weeks ago. Father Alphonso feels
the disappointment, and we do not wonder at it,
from the very great exertions that he has been
making to have the most handsome Catholic
church in the state in order for dedication. The
carpets for the sanctuary are in place, and show
the good taste of the ladies who selected them,
ms they match the altar and surroundings. We
trust the weather will be propitious. The Bishop
delivers his sermon in English. Abbot Alexius
will celebrate high mass. This viii be the fourth
church dedicated in the state, and all belong to
the order Of St. Benedict.
