AN ANCIENT PRIZE-FIoAr.
vfrgn's Description of a Mili Between Two
Trojan Siuggcrs.

The f rs, prize-hght OF which we have any
detailed description, SAYS the New Orleans
Picayune, was specially reported by the
great Latin poet, Virgil IN the nth book
OF the d-ueid. When Prince lEncas was
escap-ug with his followers from the de-
structon OF Troy he anchored MS feet of
the coast Of Sicily and landed The men and
women for a season Of rest. To celebrate
the occas.on he organized contests Of arch
ers, wresllers and boxers, besides u regatta
and foot-races. Tho prize fight was be
tween Entellus, an old athlete, ana Dares,
young champion Of the ring. We are not
told If the Marquis Of Queensberry's rules
were used or not, but there were scientific
regulations. Both champions had their fists
armed with gloves Of rawhide and lead.
Entellus, stripped Of his quilted coat, his
body barred, composed of mighty bones and
Drawn. - while Dares "his brawny back and
ample breast he shows
Both on tie tiptoe stand at full extent
Their arms aiofl, their bodies inly hcnt;
Their HEADS from aiming blows they bear afar.
VIII clash.ng gauntlets then provoke the war.
Before. behind, the blows are dealt; around
Their hollow sides with rafting thumps re-
sound
Heavy with age, Entollus stands his ground.
But with his warping body wards the wound
His hand and watchful eve keep even pace,
While Dares traverscs and shifts his place,
And like captain who beloaguers round
Some stronghold castle on a rising ground,
Views al the approaches with observing eyes,
And more on art than upon force relies.
Finally the old man grows warm and rush
es upon his antagonist:
He lays on loads with either hands amain,
Nor stops nor stays, nor rest nor breath al.
lows,
But storms OF strokes descend on Dares'
brows.
The young man IS beaten and has TO be
taken from the field
HIS mouth and nostrils pour'd purple food,
And broken teeth caIno rushing with his blood.

q Chicago dispatch: The managers Of the

seems that the Wisconsin Central is main
,ly responsible for this. 1t has never
compiled with that article Of the agree
ment which provides that every member
shall file with the chairman copies of its
special contracts for the inspection of the
other members. Its refusal to do this
placed all the roads at a disadvantage,
and the Burlington &c Northern and the
Minneapolis s. st. Louis finally got tired
of it and gave notice that they would
withdraw from the association Jan. !.
Last week a committee was appointed to
see what could be done toward settling
the difficulties and keeping the associa-
ton intact. At yesterdays meeting the
committee reported, recommending q re-
of the association. The
proposition was voted down. The
Wisconsin Central then announced that it
was willing to continue the association and
comply with the terms of the agreement,
provided any membe be allowed to with
draw OF giving sixty days notice, and
provided, further, that the Wisconsin
Central be allowed a dlfferential of 81. so
