The Pat Rooney Company were greet
ed with another large audience at the
Grand last night. The show has caught
on in this city, and all who'have seen
"Lord Rooney" pronounce 1t the best

is considered one OF the best aRd most
graceful dancers ever seen In Wheeling.

The two combatants for a moment
glared at each other with fierce earnest
ness which betokened fixed resolu-
ton on the part of each never to sub
NIT or yield" The wagner threw him
self into an attitude which evinced a
complete mastery of the most manly of
arts and brutal of sciences" The DO
sition and bearing of the young man
may have been indicative of want of
that complete educational training SO
perceptible i'll his adversary, but the fash
of his eye denoted genius, and genius,
you know, can do everything-except
what is useful.
The wagner speedily assumed the Of
fensive, aiming blow which must have
felled an OK. The youth, who never for
a moment lost his antagonists eye,
sprang dexterously aside, and ere the
other could recover his guard or regain
his balance, which he had partially lost
in missing his aim, with the bound of a
tiger the young soldier threw himself
forward, dealing his huge enemy blow
between the eyes, to which was added
the momentum of his whole body. Such
sound as is heard when butcher
knocks down bullock accompanied the
blow-and not less PROSTATE and ap-
parently lifeless lay the bully.
Although the etiquette of "the ring"
as then expounded, would have per-
mitted the victor to follow up his ad-
vantage till his opponent cried enough
in cases in which the party had evident
ly received enough, but was unable TO
say SO, as in the case Of a prisoner
standing mute by the act of God," it
was usual for the plea to be entered for
him. Such was the course pursued in
the present instance; but the plea, which
the young stranger seemed imperfectly
to hear, required to be enforced by the
active interference of the bystanders.
The condition Of the vanquished man
began to excite the most lively appre-
tensions. Some insisted that his skull
was broken, for they had heard it crack,
while others took a more hopeful and
as the event proved correct view Of the
symptoms. After persevering use OF
the approved remedies, including the
dashing of gourdful after gourdful of
cold water in his face, the wagner
slowly opened his eyes and began to rub
them. He was soon able to sit up, and
in few minutes more had regained his
legs. He had had "a fair chance" and
was evidently satisfied. Without word
he proceeded to hitch up his team, after
which he turned to the captain and re-
ported himself ''ready."
The name of the youth was Daniel
Morgan, whose subsequent exploits in
the American revolution, in which he
rose to the rank Of brigadier general,
have been read by every schoolboy in
America. His achievements during the
two terms he served in congress are not
SO widely known.-Exchange.
