LIprrScoTT's for November, holds up John
Bright in the less familiar guise of stead.
fast temperance reformer. In 1874, he stated
that for the thirty-four years in which he
had kept house, he had bought no spirituous
liquor, was totally without decanters and, as
he thought, wine glasses, also. Nevertheless
for short time in 1870 for the same reasons
as Timothy, he was advised to try little
wine. 1t must have been a present and,
necessarily, could not have been decanted.
AS the occasion passed away, he promptly
relinquished what was, perhaps to him, no
indulgence. He confesses that this stand
subjected him to grave inconvenience.

One willingly permits the pride and glory
with which Gen. Beauregard relates the
battle Of Bull Run, thus initiating in the
November number, the historical series pro-
posed by the CENTURY. The story is clearly
told, and, as all were Americans, and It was
nigh generation ago, thrill, sympathetic
with the old soldier, shoots through the
reader. A drawback is the free scope given
to bitter personal animosity against Jefferson
Davis. This article is supplemented by the
experiences of shrewd private. From Gen.
Beauregard's account, one wonders that any
thing WAS ever accomplished by the Federal
army, SO honey-combed were all projects
with disaffection and secret intelligence

SPORTING NOTES.

Charley Mccoy Of sharpsburg, ard
William Mcdonald of Pittsburg, fought
most terrific small glove fight Sunday
afternoon. When the fighters stripped
both displayed fine muscle, though
Mcdonald looked decidedly in the worse
condition. besides being much lighter
than his opponent. He weighed
l45 pounds, while Mccoy, who
was never in better condition in his life,
turned the scales at 164 pounds. Mccoy
was the first man who fought the now
famous Doininick MoCaffrey, and was
easily defeated by Dominick. The men
fought four desperate rounds, during
which both were very badly beaten,
McCoy, having slight advantage over
his opponent. In the fifth and
last round Mccoy was much the
frssher man when time was called. He
now made the fighting, and rushed upon
his little opponent with the dsrceness Of a
Wild animal. Finally Mccoy struck
Mcdonald when the latter was down and
almost senseless, the referee consequently
deciding In favor Of Mcdonald.
