FIGHT WITH DEVIL FISH.
Sting Ray Gives Fisherman a Bad
Moment,

Capt. +. Dominick of a fishing smack
had q fierce fight with an American
whip sting ray, or devil-fish, near the
Charleston lightship. the other after
noon. So far as the local fishermen are
able to say, this is the first fish of the
kind ever seen around the waters of
Charleston, and, being unknown to
Dominick, he was naturally in bad
fighting shape before the sea monster
was finally killed. The ray had a wire
like tail five feet long, and when this
went slashing drought the air des-
cended with mighty force on the back
of the captain. he was more alarmed
than he cared to be, and it was any
mans game until the tail was finally cut
off with a knife.

vacant paAFls belonging to the present
year, being twenty-one in number.
The names of the twenty-nine immor-
tails have been published in the newspa-

g single editor in the list, except Ben

arily an editor. Horace Greeley was re-

criticism on the feature of the rules which
restricts the. hall to native-born Ameri-
cans, and suggests, properly, that, if all
eminent .foreign-born Americans had
been included, the task of the electors
would have been greatly complicated.
TIL rule excluded Alexander Hamilton,
Albert Gallatin and other distinguished
foreign-born Americans, who figured
conspicuously in our earile. history.
