THE o AT HULL.
From tho Daily Telegraph, April 24t6.

A correspondent telegraphed last night
About half past eleven O'Clock on Saturday
night five or six polioe-oficers were conduct
ing a couple of prisoners to the Central
Policestation, and when crossing the Monu-
meut Bridge, which connects the old and new
town, they were subjected to an attack which
had all the appearance of having been carefully
planned. Reinforcements, however. arrived
from the Central Police Office, and then
ensued q scene of the widest excitement, in
the course of which a number of strikers
shouted CHUCK the boobies into the dock"
The officers stood firm, and succeeded sventu-
ally, by a liberal use of the baton, in getting
their charges free of a mob of between two
and three thousand. In the course of the
struggle a policeman was knocked down and
another was struck across the head. The
latter sustained injuries SO serious that he
had to be sent home in a cab. Inspector
Clark, of the Motifs force. was next called out,
and went isto Osborne street, where a crowd
OF several hundreds Of peot lie was moving in
the direction of the Neptune street subway,
leading to the Albert Dock, evidently bent
on mischief. A number of windows were
broken. The police here again drew their
batons, and a stiff fight followed. Deputy
Chief Constable Jones. in charge of a posse
at the same time, proceeded into Carr lane
and Paragon street. Here a crowd pelted
the officers with stones. Luckily, the deputy
Chief-conStable and his men got the advan-

On the 23rd ultimo, it was announced that
eleven fresh 'libels' had been fled, the
largest being a claim Of S70,227 Ivy the New

August and November last. On the oath the

was still proceeding on the 9th February.
The officers and Grew of the AdUnnca claim

the British aud Foreign Urine Insurance
Company claim sos. There is a batch of
claims for Q 'als supplied-the Chesapeake and
Ohio Railway for S., AL against five Of the
steamers, and the BerwindsWhite Coal Min

of the line, all for fuel. The Thurber. Why
land Company's bill against three steamers
for supplies foots up lS,803. The Herald's
report on the Oath ulto. stated that on the
preceding day the "libels" filled were enough
to almost swamp the vessels" thsrs having
been a wild scramble in the morning on the
part Of the lawyers to get the claims in, and
the deputy marshsls having been kept busy
Selling the vessels sled against, the forms
requiring this to be done for each separate
libel" The Compauy's feet comprises the
Regina, Enchantress, Chilian, Marcia, Seq

settlement of some Of the claims filed on
the 22nd and 23rd ulto., was begun on the
following day, but no definite action on the
part Of the Executive Committee had been
taken. The President SAID it would. require
between a million and a million and a half
dollars to get the ships of the line again
into running order and secure the ChFapfreight
boats needed to compete with the English
tramp" steamers. The Mr.. Huntington
before mentioned put 100000 into the con.
Germ twelve years ago, but according to the
story related by an interviewer he marked
it OF" three years ago; be had very little
idea when he invested that it would be a pay
ing one, but was interested with other stock
holders in seeing the American flag and com,
merce extended to the States Oh the Southern
Continent. Mr.. Huntington was willing to
bear a pro rata share of the cost of keeping
the line running, even at a loss, but he adj
mitted that the prospects were dark. "Ameri-
can lines can't stand the competition" he
said, there being 800 irou steam ships cited
up idle at their docks in different parts Of

THE YEARS.

Oh the first years, fairy-nursed years, when the happy, childish eyes She but the blossoms underfoot the waving boughs o'erhead, The dew upon the meadow grass, the splendor of the skies. The apples ripe for gathering the rose tree
 blushing red O, the bright years, the diigent years, when the earth seems fairy fraught, When wandering songs and perfumes fill tie enchanted air, And following rainbow visions, still pursued and still uneaught. We see the flying shape of love about us everywhere. o, the long years, and the strong years, when the tide of life brims high And bears us rushing onward with fierce. impetuous thrill. And in desperate, drowning efforts the crowded days go by, And we strengthen half-unknowing to the manly heart and will o, the fleet years are the sweet years, when the sunrise shadows kind Fit lightly on before us as we pass along our way, But the rest years are the best years, when the shadows fall behind As we press on toward the sunset and the
 perfect end of day.

What Hurt His Feelings.

'Say, boss, yer ought not a done that. It hurt me feelin's, it did," re- marked 'longshoreman, almost tear fully, as he peered in at the door of a Water street saloon, from which he had just been dragged bodily. "Ah, como now, Reddy, none of that" replied the barkeeper, as he reached for the bung- starter. from which he proceeded non- chalantly to remove traces of blood and hair left by an early morning vis- itor. Pausing an instant to dip tho corner of his apron in the rinsing pail. he continued: You've been butted an throwed out often enough to get used to it. Besides, l didn't mean no harm. It was only playin' with you, was. I didn't slug you.' ''Taln't that" replied Reddy, ruefully. ''I don't mind bein' butted an slung out; that's manly an fair-that is. It's bein' dragged out what hurts me. Dragged out agin the grain of rough floorin what's full of slivers. l ain't used to that, an me pants is stuck as full as pin cush'n.

 Are you hurt?" asked Robert, in Q tremble. as he bent over Johnson.
 "Yes, some," he answered, like one collecting his senses after stunning blow "Get the battery away quick before they find it."
 In an instant Roberts nimble fingers had abstracted it, and shipping the wire that held it to the spur he plunged both wire and battery into his own pocket
 A surgeon hastened toward them. Robert pushed the promised gold piece into Johnson's pocket, then stood one side to make way for the surgeon.

Puzzled.

Some years ago a gentle man living in Charleston, $. C., had as an atten- dant colored man who was an excel lent servant in all respects save one: he could not be taught to serve things invariably at the left hand of guests at the table.
 At length the gentleman hit upon an ingenious expedient. Coats were then worn single-bre asted in Charleston, and he told Cesar that he must always hand the plates and other dishes to the guests on the button-hole side.
 This plan worked to charm for some time; but one day there came foreign guest, who wore double- breasted coat Poor Cesar, in dismay, looked first at one side of it, and then at the other. and finally, casting a look of despair at his master, he exclaimed: Buttons on bofe sides, nasal and handed the plate right over the gentle mans head.-Youth's Companion.

COMPOSITION OF MANS BODY
Science Says It Is Formed or Condensed q
 Air and Liquid Gases.


 Air and Liquid Gases.
 The following is from the pen of Jus tus Liebig, the greatest chemist of the century: Science has demonstrated the fact that man. the being which performs the. greatest wonders, is formed of condensed air solidified and liquid gases, that he lives upon con densed as well as upon uncondensed air, and that by means of the same mysterious agent he moves or causes to be moved the heaviest weights with the velocity of the wind. But the strangest part of the matter is that thousands and millions of these taber- nacles of condensed air are going on two legs destroying other forms of condensed air which they may need to build up their own wasted tissues or for shelter or clothing, or, on ac- count of their egotism and fancied power destroying each other in pitched battles, using implements which are but another form of condensed air, the material of which they themselves are formed or composed. Chemistry SUD- plies the clearest proof that so far as concerns this, the ultimate and most minute composition and structure, some of which are so infnitesimal as to be beyond the comprehension of our senses, man is, to all appearances, at least, composed of materials identified with those which compose the structural be- ing of the OK or the dog, or even the lowest animal ia the scale of creation. Solomon seems to have entertained the same idea. See Ecclesiastes iii, 19: For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; as the one dicth, so dieth the other; yes, they have all one breath, so that a man hath no pre- eminence above a beast "-St Louis Republic.

I'd be proud to see you with that watch Harper was a-telling me you wanted, so don't say nothing" and he laid the gold pieces near Robert.
 Before the surprised Robert could re- ply Johnson was gone.-M. c. Hyde. in Philadelphia Press.
