In the beuer day oi tbe Greclau republics,
the pUysioal enoounlers of theOlympUn Kames
contested the universal favor oi the people with
the pollened dramas of Hophoolea aud his com
peers Running and wrestling were at that
lime regarded ly all classHS an the most enter
taining, and. at the lame time, the most harm
less kinds of amusement that oonld be devised;
and, in fret, so great was the favor in which
they were held, that the regular recurrence of
tbe Olympian games was lien led aa an event
of national Importance, and became from an
early period the point which marked the epocha
r divisions of time. Popular amusements,
however, have kepteven pace with the progress
of enlightenment and Christianity, and what
was once regarded as iinriiiiens in lis mnuenoe
upon public morality, has now been transferred
to the list of those forbidden pan times whloh.
hould be Indulged In by the brnte creation
Jone. That portion of the community in clvl
ir.ed countries which still resorts to the prlrnl
i ve pleasures of the anoienta, has therefore be
. fine, from sheer necessity, the lowest and
jiost degraded to be found; their most popular
pastimes are regarded by the law as breaohea
of the publio peace, and they themselves are
looked npon by the o Ulcers of the law as flt
subjects for arrest and durance Tile, at almost,
any time.
lsolwlthstandlng the 111 favor in which the
sport lag fraternity aie held by the oommunlly
ui ja'ge, and despite the utmost vigilance of
those whose duly it is to prevent suoti breaohea
or the pence as it is their great delight to be
concerned in, their boisterous sports still take
place at Irregular Intervals, and are the occa
sions of Immense congregations of the most de
graded specimens of humanity, rendered all tue
mors brutal In their habits by the legal perse
cutions to which they are then subjected.
Suoh a gathering took place not long slnoe on
the banks of Aquia creek, in Virginia, to wit
ness a contest for the so-called "Championship
of Light Weights," participated In by two noto
rious vagabonds, named respectively Barney
Aaron and Bam Oollyer. Barney was
the victor, although be did not get
the better of bis antagonist without
resorting to sundry tricks of his trade whloh
laid him open to the charge of cowardice. With
the view of enlisting the sympathies of tha
fmblioln behalf of the discomfited Oollyer, the
alter was recently tendered a grand compli
mentary benefit at the Front Street Theatre, in
Baltimore, at which were present lu strong force
the friends and admirers of the quondam cham
pion. The friends nod admirers of the other
party could npt be expeoted to look npon such
a proceeding with entire complacency, and
therefore Collyer's benefit bad no sooner taken
place then one was gotten up for the express
glorification and profit of his opponent, Phila
delphia was honored as the scene of the affair,
ana lam evening was nxea npon as me time.
It was rumored that the friends of Barney ex
perienced considerable difficulty in obtaining
the use of a suitable hall for the performance of
their exploits; but after considerable tribula
tion tbey aucoeeded in leasing Washington
Hall, at the southwest corner ol Eighth and
Spring Garden streets. This is the well-known
Sunday rendezvous of those who dabble in
spiritual manifestations; and we confess that
the choice of the plaoe was exceedingly appro
priate, as it is but natural to suppose that spirits
of the grosser sort would enter largely into the
calculations of the crowd then and there as
sembled. The hour fixed upon f,r the entertainment
was eight in the evening, aud at the appointed
time we presented ourselves at the door and
demanded a ticket. We were given the choice
of a front seat at one dollar, or a place in the
rear at fifty cents. Preferring a near view, we
paid the dollar, and were furnished with a seat
within a few feet of the stage. Among the audi
ence already assembled we notloed a few in
dividuals of a respectable bearing, who were,
doubtless, attracted to the place by a laudable
curiosity. But the greater portion was made
op o( those well-dressed roughs who contrive In
some mj sterlous way to partake of the good
things of this life. The boundary line of the
rciervtd seats was well-marked, and In its rear
were congregated - those "bummers" and
"knucka" upon whom lorinne smiles but rarely
and feebly. The whole number presentwas about
Blx hundred. While awaiting the appearance
of the performers, the audience diverted itself
in a characteristic manner. Nine out of ten of
those who had dignified themselves by taking
front seats we X PuUlu away at their segars,
and the retna tting tenth part, allied with
many of the igm. oie rabble in the rear, were
industrously euga.1 in fulfilling a voluntary
contract to float tb.bencbes in tobacco-Juice.
The reeking fumes olquor were mingled with
the olond which rested over the assemblage;
and, as a fitting aooomaniment to the whole,
ribald jests and indv sent harangues were
poured forth in every Vsallty. When promi
nent characters in theVportlng fraternity
entered the hall, they we -a loudly and fami
liarly saluted on all Lands, and invited to seat
themselves on auy numbe ol benches which
were already orowded to su Vocation. One of
these distingue was particularly noticeable by
reason of bis grey hairs and tVoated features
a physical ana moral wreok, nmmlndful of the
day of reckoning which was soOiose upon him.
As hestrlded up the aisle , a burl fellow with a
monstrous moustache andamouitY-ooloi-ed hat,
yelled at the top of his voice.
"Come over here, daddy ! Plenty f room."
"Don't go!" responded some onefrvn another
quarter; "he'll knock spots out of yt as big as
a piece of wool."
'Daddy," however, accepted the ltvltation,
but before be was settled to his satlsfa Uon, he
was foroed to engage in a preliminary Scuttle
with the burly fellow with the monstrou i mous
taobe. This was quite a relief to the au Hence,
and the merriment which it oreate t bad
scarcely subside' when "Oyster Jao ;" ap
peared upon the stage. V
"Oyster Jaok" was the aotlng stage manager.
In physiognomy he was far from preposesslng.
The shape of his skull suggested the heading to
thisartiole. lie was literally, as well as tech
nically, a "square-head." And that the sym
metry of his cranium might not be disturbed
by bis locks, tbey were closely cropped, the
cavities about bis lower Jaw being rounded out
with a Bhort and grizzly beard. "Oyster Jaok"
was attired in a tight-fitting knit-flannel shirt,
and bis pantaloons hung in graceful bags about
'bis nether extremities. In one band be held a
large silver time-piece, whloh at ouoe attracted
a marked share of attention.
"Hello, Jack t Where d' you git that turnip?"
screamed a iantarn-jawed youth on the front
The point of tb IS query was seen at once, and
raised a roar of laughter, in which "Oyster
Jack" joined heartily, as he informed bis
Jriends that be bad borrowed it from the State
vinnut ki.nnl. After rannestlnir some one in
the audience to favor him with a mouthful of
tobacco, "Oyster Jack" deposited the paper in
a pocket in the seat of his baggy pantaloons
He soon returned, supported on either side by
a man stripped to the waist. ' Oyster Jack"

chest of the hatchet-faced individual to his

doeen rounds were gone through with after
the approved lasblou, and by this time the
natchet-faoMi Individual from Brooklyn was as
red as a boot. "Oyster Jaok" hart crouched
himself at the rear of the stage, from which
position be viewed the combat with an eager
eye, now and then exclaiming " Foul 1" aud
when be Judged that the Brooklyn man bad
arrived at the proper crimson tint, he parted
the antagonists, and conducted them into the
room at the side of the stage.
The applause which -greeted this first matoh
bad scarcely died away, when those on the
front benches sprang to their feet to ascertain
the cause or a great uproar and commotion
in the renr. It was caused by a stampede on
the part of the fifty-cent rabble, who had been
contemplating with envious ey sundry vacant
benches just in front of them. Over the tops
of the Beau tbey sciarnbled aud Jostled, crush
ing down the backs as -they went, and mutter
ing cursos at those wno glided into the vacant
plaoe before them, 'ine neat lu tha front had
been almost iDMUiieraute ueiore this, aud now
It was absolutely stifling. It was remedied In
the only puaslble way, by a general stripping off
OI ooats, vests, suirt collars, aa uuDUttouiug Of
ixMoins.aua. rolling up oi sleeve.
After a short Intermission "Oyster Jaok"
Pgnln appeared, his arms encircling two short
aud well-bnllt men, who were denizens of New
York and Philadelphia respectively. They had
consulted common deoenoy to the extent of re
taining their undershirts. The content between
these two was much more scientific than the
former, and the bead-foremost thrusts which
tbey made at each other were received with
loud shouts of laughter. Tbey were likewise
much addicted to the making of feints, aud the
PblladeJphlan had an amusing knack of
dancing about the stage on one leg, while with
the other he performed sundry evolutions
which would have done credit to a olrous-rlder.
After a half dozen rounds or so, the counte
nance of the New Yorker assumed the color of
a beet, and then "Oyster Jack" withdrew them,
to the side room, followed by en thunlnstio cheers.
During the Intermission a commotion was
created by the entrance of a number of persons
into the gallery. Homeoneon the floor siiirgnsted
that they were the "members of the Common
Council," and was rewarded by a round of
cheers lor the qulokness aud acouraoy of his
perceptions,
When "Oyster Jaok" again appeared, he
escorted two boys about thiricou years of sge,
who were attired solely In their pantaloons.
They were both sorry specimens of Young
America, as far as flesh was concerned, but
were, nevertheless, received with a grand out.
burst on the part of the audience. They "came
up to the tcratoh" with considerable nerve, and
after hammering away feroolouslr at each
other until both were red as beets, were taken
aside by "Oyster Jaok," amid deafening shouts
of applause.
The next intermission was employed by
"Oyster Jack" in carefully chalking the floor
of the stage, and when this was completed to
bis satisfaction, he brought forward two other
young specimens of the sporting fraternity,
clad like the former two, but somewhat taller
and somewhat skinnier. The contest was de
cidedly spirited, one of them going repeatedly
"to his devotions." At the end, he was whirled
by bis antatonlst entirely around the stage,
and was caught, as he fell, in the arms of a
bloated specimen of humanity, who had come
to the support of "Oyster Jack. "
The next encounter was between a little red
faced, tow-headed lellow from New Orleans,
and a long, lank Philadelphlan, both attired lu
undershirts. Their movements were quite
wary, and much resemblod the Zouave army
drill; but several times they came to close quar
ters and the floor, to the great delight of their
audience.
"Oyster Jack" then found it necessary to
make the roucds of the audience to select the
next antagonists. He finally succeeded in pro
curing the services of two vlllanous-looklng
specimens, who at first refused to come to close
quarters. Spurred on by the hisses of the as
semblage, tbey clinched at last, and Miat so
feroclc UBly tbat "Oyster Jack," in the tender
ness of his heart, was constrained to ery out,
"Murtherl murtherl" The contest again
grew tame, and again the hisses were heard,
when "Oyster Jack" took occasion to say, "Let
'em be; they're doin' the best they kin 1" The
audience, however, were not satisfied with their
rooster-like lunges at each other, and the hisses
Anally became so loud and earnest that one of
them retired. But the other, refused to
follow his example, and bad to be carried off
the stage by main (orce, muttering, aa he went,
"Lager beer Is good !"
'ibis unsatisfactory encounter was followed
bvavery elaborate and scientific battle be
tween two splendidly developed men, who ad
ministered to each other the hardest kind of
knocks, in the most determined fashion, the
audience manifesting their approval by loug-
conunueu cneers.
Then came the final scene, the redoubtable
Cr amnion of Lltrht Welsnta." Karnev Aaron
himself, appearing on the stage, in com
pany with JJoouey Harris, of New York and
California, a man of high repute in sporting
circles. The beneficiary of the evening ad
vanced to the foot-lights, bowed, and delivered
hi nc self somewhat as follows:
"Cieuilemn: 1 kiu authorized bv my friends
to say I will fight Fatn Oollyer at a hundred
und twenlv-four Dounds. for S2..00 or S.'.IKM).
(Tremendous cheering.) I am not accustomed
to publio speaking, my friends; in fact, I am not
gifted with public speeoli. But I must return
my sincere mantes for tne kindness i nave
received at your 'ends."
This announcement was followed bv great ap
plause, into the ml-jst of which broke some one
n the gallery, bv offering to tight Dooney Har
ris at any time and for any amount. A consi
derable uproar ensued, and several impromptu
speeches were delivered in various parts of the
ball before it was Quelled. Before the contest
commenced, Barney Aaron deolared that his
iriena uooney nan-is was prepared to ngtit any
man in the country of bis weight, and then
mey went at each other in tne niftiest style oi
the art. Dooney was the taller and Heavier of
the two, and therefore had the advantage;
but the twain belabored each other gallantly.
and when tbey retired thedisgustingexblbilion
was declared by "Oyster Jack" to be at an end.
American Pbizks. In the official list of
awards to Americans in the great Exhibition

Exposition samples of their delightful and
well-known perfumeries and toilet soaps, which
have certainly shown their superiority oy gain
ing a prize in "the land of perfumes." We most
heartily congratulate the Messrs. Wright on
their success, particularly as it was aobleved
without any other lnfluenoe but the good
quality and splendid display of their manufac
tures. The Paris correspondent of the Phila

that pb per. uses the following language in de
scribing this display: "I didn't do justice in
my last letter to Messrs. w rights" display oi

of a court, and is visible on every side; it Is one
of the handsomest displays in the American

latter alone, truallus to Inorenslng tba stock with the
Increaalng produce, so a to render It at least Inde
pendent of the uurchaaed manure.
Th table below will pnwnl all the necesasry facts
in relation to the farm Iron. Its briery poverty In 1HI
to Its plethoric tailing down ot wheat and clover lu

which only 40 have bean In cultivation. The groas

con. ,. of the pboephate I used waa about So
per t 4 , phosphoric acid, of which w.8 per cent, were
solublb la water, and 1&2 per cent, potential atn-
The'qnnntlty I almod to get Into the soil has been
about half a ton per acre, trusting to tba Immediate
action of tbesoluble phosphoric acid, and the gradual
development of tbe Insoluble by cultivation during
many years, bnt deniguing to add a little ol tbe same
manure In each aubaeiiuuiit rotation. Tbe best metnod
of using tbe phosphate, according to my experience,
la lo barrow In some four huudred or five hundred
iiounda. sowed broadca.it upon the land, when
ploughed for orn, and to put two or three hundred
pouuua more in ids dmis, lugetutjr wii.ii a iibue woou
aab. Then two or three hundred pounds more should
go on the root crop of the next year, and two hundred
or four hundred pounds more be harrowed lu, alter
Jilouphlng ior wheat, in toe fall of the same yer. I
tave thus put 1600 to 1200 pounds on every acre, as it
came lu ineoruer oi rotauon.
My conclusion as to the best method of Improving
tat meat a distance from cities, wblch are. or which
should be, the great sources ot fertility. Is this: To
improve the soil by the liberal use of phosphate. In
troduced Into tbe usual rotation system, and then
keep as much atocx as tne farm can possibly oe muue
to bear. Tbe phosphates commence the fertility, tbe
stock sustains It. Tbe produce of stocs may vary ac
cording to the proximity to a town milk, butter,
cheese, or raising stock for sale.
Tbe advantage ol the butter produce is mat nothing
of mineral value is sold off and removed from the
land, except tbe trlfllDg amount In wheat flour, and
In the flesh and bones of the bog. For this reaaon I
have bad a butter dairy for several years, with the
exception of one year, when a milk dairy was tried.
Tbe following Utbte of the gross sales of produce of
all kinds In successive years will show the Influence
of phosphates alone to Improve farming land:

At tbe present time. June. 1867. there are fifteen

O'i pounds oi Duller per cow per weeK. Tne grows on
which these cows have fed has been almost exclu
sively produced by pbo-.phi.iea, and the cows are but

In order to have a fairer view of tbe Improvements
resulting from tbe liberal use oi phosphates. I should
add tbat the value of the above hock snnuld be added
to tbe profits of the year. The whola larm Is so im
proved tbat it would continue to yield largely lor

Thirty-third street and Darby road, where two horses
were unhitched, and then drove down to No. 8310

loaded and taken into a dwelling ; this was on
the morning ot tbe 4th of May; the first tax paid
by McBrlde was on tbe 18th of May. There was a
bonded warehouse on the premises; when liquor Is
taken Into a warehouse on the premises of any per
son, such person Is required to give a warehouse
entry. This was not a bonded warehouse where tbe
whisky was taken on : Market street, but appeared
to be a dwelling. Lovetl was foreman of tbe

No Nam S. Many, many people suffer from
tbey know not what. They are not sick they
are not well. There Is no name for It. It is
simply weakness a breaking down of the vital
forces. Whatever its causes (and they are innu
merable), its symptoms are in the main the
same. Among the most prominent are extreme
lassitude, loss of appetite, loss of flesh, and great
mental depression. Indigestion and a Stomach
Oough are also frequent concomitants of this
distressing state of body and of mind. The com
mon remark in relation to persons in suoh a
condition is, that they are consumptive. ' Now,
what these unfortunates really want is vigor,
vital strength; and, as certainly as dawn succeeds
darkness, they can reouperate their systems
and regain perfeot health by resorting to Hos
tetter's Celebrated Stomach Bittbrs.

quired in suoh cases, as that the dying flame
