by friends, entered the office, and
declared the positions of the direo-

friends to their places. Breeze gathered
the office employees together and threw
the intruders out, but later they were
admitted as stockholders. Last night
both factions were holding the fort aud
claiming the victory. Hubbard has sworn
out an injunction, claiming to be in pos

its mouth a good sized catfish. Tho
horns of the latter were protruding through
the gills of the bass and thus both fish
were onriousy fastened together. This
tishy curiosity was taken to Bostio's hotel
at Fite's Eddy, where it was viewed by a
number Of people. 1t is well known the
bass is a voracious fish and preys upon all
smaller fish it can capture. In this case
Mr.. Bass caught Tartar and paid the
penalty of his rashness in attempting to
swallowa catfish. horns and all. The
bass was fine one, weighing about four

The Lancaster INLEIGLGESCER notices a
recent criticism made by this paper upon
the neglected condition of the grave OF
Thaddeus Stevens. Ii makes u fair argu-
ment why tho city of Lancaster should
not be held responsible, and wo only
suggested that it might undertake the
duty in the impossible event of the ira
bility of the executors Of Mr.. Stevens
estate. The EceHing Bulletin never re
gardCd Mr.. Stevens, apart from his grand
intellect and HIS lifelong adhesion to the
doctrine of human freedom and equality,
as character to be initiated or held in
high public esteem, and the INTELLIGEN
GER is apparently of the same mind. Is it
not in error, however, in saying that Mr.
Stevens devised his estate for the establish
ment Of NEGRO college Of some sort 2n
