24intrican Voluntur. CARLISLE. PA., Tbartday Horning, November 21, 1807. THE PRESIDENCY—IBOB. Tho Philadelphia Sunday Mercury, ’one 6f the ablest of our Democratic ex changes, suggests tho names of Hon. Robert C. Winthrop, of Massachusetts, and Hon. James R. Doolittle, of Wis _ cousin—ns. -tho-Cnnservatlve civnrthln! n« for President and Vico President. The Mercury follows up its suggestions with a powerful article in behalf of these dis tinguished gentlemen, mid speaks of the absolute necessity of having great and good men to load tho Conservative column next fall. Ip. tho opinion of many thc'dlscussion of this question at this time, appears premature. For ourselves, wo desire it to bo understood that wo feel no dispo sition to commit ourselves on the sub ject of tho next Presidency at present.— We desire to express no opinion now on tho subject; but yet wo aro in accord with the Mercury when it expresses tho opinion that intellectual greatness and goodness should he the qualifies pos sessed by our candidates. It istimothat men of talent were thought of for these high positions—time that mediocrity, (which of Into years has roseinto prom inence,) should take a back scat, now that our country is convulsed with fac tious and almost ruined, because dema gogues, buffoons and pilferers have oc cupied the high places in the govern ment. It is time, wo say, that we look about for a statesman tor next Presi dent, f r if ever there was a people on tho face of the earth who required a wise man at tho head of their affairs, it is the American people of to-day. Let us go back to the days of Washington, and Jefferson, and Adams, and Madi son, and Monroe, and Hamilton, and Patrick Henry, and Benjamin Frank lin, and Jay, and Rutlege, and, in imi tation of their greatness, their patriot ism and their honesty, work to extri cate our convulsed country from the difficulties in which it has been ongulph cd by fanatical fools, mountebanks and rascals. Let tho people, of to-day, like their forefathers—like the sages of tho Revolution—look to greatness, and fit ness, and honor, wiien they select a man to preside over the destinies of tin’s mighty Republic. We have had enough and more than enough of mediocrity and corruption, and God knows we have suffered enough for our error. We i want no more Lincolns to occupy the chair once occupied by a Washington, ; an Adams, a Jefferson, a Monroe, a Madison, and,a Jackson. No!—we need and must have a statesman at the helm —one who can steer tho ship of clear of tho shoals and quicksands that now threaten the destruction of the good old craft.- Buttons and epaulette, feath ers and tinsel will not do, if unaccompa nied with the more solid requirements —learning, statesmanship, and honor. “Availability” has foisted more than one knave and fool into high positions, out we feel satisfied the people are in no humor just now to endorse any man lor the Presidency who is not qualified for the position.. THE LATE UEidtRUCAN PARTY The so-called Republican party is vir tually dead. Thepeoplcyin their wrath, > laced their feet upon the neck of the hydra-headed monster mid choked it until it begged fur mercy It was a child of sin, its daddy being a thief and its mother a dissembler. During itsshort but eventful history it corrupted the people of the whole country, and left , desolation, misery and debauchery in its train. For a time the people seemed infatuated with the gay festivities fur nished by this new candidate for pub lic favor, and like the poor innocent bird that is sometimes charmed by the brilliancy displayed by the wily serpent seeking its prey, they became intoxica ted with the extravagance, splendor, show and demoralization so freely in- , dulged in by this negro bantling, and 1 wore almost ruined before they discov- | cred that they had been nursing a viper. Then it was that they rose in the maj esty of their power, and hurled the ac cursed thing to the ground. Thank fortune, the Republican-negro party is now among the things that were. Its late adherents may attempt to galvan ize it into life, by handing its mutila ted body to the semi-barbarian negroes of the South, with instructions to nurse it carefully and to gorge'it with govern ment pap, but all will not do, for the death-rattle is in its throat, and it may be considered dead. Wesuggest to our Republican friends, the following inscription for the tomb of their black bantling: Hero lies The Hotly of RADICAL REPUBLICANISM. Born, A, D. ISoO, Died, A. D. IsbT, Aged, 11 years.

JUDGE AGNEWS DECISION. On our first page will be found a re markable decision pronounced by Judge Agnew, iu bolmlf of four out of five members of the Supreme Court, at Pitts burg, on Monday the 4th inst. It re verses a decision of the Common Pleas of Philadelphia, in which damages had been awarded against a railroad con ductor for compelling a negro woman to sit in :i negro quarter of the car. Al though the case occurred before tho pas sage of the negro ear-riding bill, and was not adjudicated under its provis ions, yet the decision itself is a powerful and overwhelming argument against the law. And what is most remarka ble it was written and delivered by Judge Agnew, who was elected by the iiepuhlican party, and inis been the most radical member of the court Probably Judge Agnew remembered (hat the last Republican State Conven tion declared that “the, Supreme Court of (he Slate should be placed in harmony with the, political opinions of the majority ot the people. /md so soon as lie heard the returns nftJjeJgte election h'dTmstoll ed to do so. RADICAL “VICTORIES.” Forney, in his “ two papers, both dai ly,” appeals to his partizans not to per mit themselves to bo “bowed down with sorrow,” because of tho result of the elections in the Northern States.— He admits that the great North has re pudiated the treasonable doings of the Rump Congress as well as the corrupt practices of the Negro party ; he confes ses too that the Democratic column has a formidable appearance; but as an off set to all this he points to tho if recon fetrni'frwl Soulto’ ns evidence oC the “popularity of Radical principles and Ideas.” To show (hat his rotten party is not dead, Forney, with a flourish of trumpets, discourses virtually as fol lows : “ It Hit/ CoppiM-homlM hnvo rmrli'd IVnnsvlvn nln My u smnll majority, we (the ItrulicaN.) have carried Virginia l*y ; If wo have lust New York by H.IXHi, we have carried I.milshtim by Tl.dOi; OTalironiiu lias east her vole against us, Alabama wives u* SI.UOO majority ; if wo have mi|- fered reverses in O]iio, t'lmnecticut am! Mary land, wo have gained Cieorgin, Mississippi mid Arkansas,” Ac. What consummate impudence is this! —what unblushing effrontery ? “If the white men of tho North have.con demned the Radicals, the blessed ne groes of tho South, protected by bayo nets and permitted to vote as often as they pleased, (without white interfer ence,) have endorsed them.” This is substantially the language of the Phila delphia Rrcss. Effrontery did wo pro nounce this? Nay, it is more than ef frontery—it is scoundrelism. It was bad enough and villainous enough for mili tary hirelings, under the direction of Radical scoundrels, to disfranchise the while men of ten sovereign States and It) transfer these Slates to tho keeping of ignorant and brutal negroes, who own no-property and have little if any interest in the welfare of the land they inhabit, but to make this a matter of boast, and to claim it as a “victory” over ancHan offset to the action of the while freemen of the great North, is cer tainly adding insult to injury. What! Arc white men of the North and South to be tantalized and mocked at’because they are white? Arc they to bo told that the ignorant negroes of the South are to be protected in their efforts to smother, not only tho voice of the white men of the South, but also tho white men of the North ? Are the great States of Pennsylvania, New York, Ohio, Cali fornia and Connecticut, with their teem ing millions, to be neutralized and counted out at tho bidding of Southern negroes? Are the sentiments of the white freemen of these populous States to be laughed at and defied by John W. Forney, who boasts that his party of negroes is greater than the whole North? So it seems, if the people submit to the outrage. Hut, will tne people submit to be gov erned by the blacks of the South ? Here in the North, wherever the question was submitted to them for their decis ion, they have said, with an emphatic 1 ; voice, that the negro shall not vote at our elections. Will they then consent; to s<*e four millions of blacks of the : South rule tho eight miliums of whites | in those States, and also, with the aid of a few Now England Yankees and political gamblers, rule the nation?— Will they? We think not; and we think Forney counts without his host, : when ho attempts to rear a column of “victories” achieved by negroes, and t points to it as an offset to the proud ■ column erected hy the white men of the Northern States. If we did not carry, every Northern .State this year, we be lieve we will do so in the great contest oflsfi-sfor white men will not be in sulted by having the negro held up be fore them and endorsed as their supe rior. No, no—if Mr. Forney depends on the negroes for victories, the white ; men of the nation, North and South, will depend on themselves, for they have made the firm resolve that tins is a white man’s government, to be governed by • white men. Denied Admittance.— Hon. John Hickman, of West Chester, Radical member of Assembly elect, is about on n par with Tbarl Stevens in Ills admira tion for the negro. On that subject lie is a little insane. A few weeks ago, Fred Douglass, the negro orator, was invited to West Ciiester to make a speech to ids saVde brethren. To show that lie practiced what lie preached, Mr. Hickman extended an invitation to Douglass to be bis guest during his stay in tlie town, which invitation was ac cepted. The best chamber in Hick man’s elegant mansion was put in trim, and tho large ‘ parlors thrown open for the accommodation of the Boston negro. Mrs. Hickman, however, had no stom ach for all tills, and when Dougfass arrived and was about to set foot in the elegant parlors, she confronted him and gave a peremptory order that lie should leave, pointing him at tho same time to the front door. And leave he did, to find quarters with some one of his own eoior. This is another evidence that however much some men may prate about “ equality of tho races,” white women eonnot and will not be come the advocates of tho detostible doctrine. Mrs. Hickman is a Carlisle lady, and deserves credit for her deter mination to resist the attempt of her husband to make her homo a negro ren dezvous. Colonel, Frank Jordan, chairman of the Radical State Committee, in an address explaining the cause of ids par ty’s defeat in Pennsylvania, says: “ Re construction on tlie basis of universal liberty and impartial justice must yet be accomplished.” This is the delicate mode of demanding negro suffrage, and we thank Colonel Jordan for sticking to the text. Tlie peoplo only need to know what the politicians mean, and they will be sure to vote rigid. Tiikwiiv being over, wo cun no longer curry elections by ivtullng bulletins of Union victories ami exhorting the people to “rally ’round the ling.” And those who are pushing Oen. Omni for president will land Just whore the Whigs did with Scott in’S-’, If they are allowed to Imvethetr own way. They utterly mistake (hetimouf day. — (lrn-lry'n Tribune, Tims speaks tlie Aew York Philoso pher to phn “Block-head Brigade.”— There is more truth tjijin poetry, all shrewd politicians will admit, in (lip old Philosopher’s prediction. “Behold how good and pleasant it is for iin thren to dwell together ip unity.” Who is General Wild? The Rev. John B. Weems says that this brute or dered a daughter of the Rev. A. U. Clie nault, of Georgia, a most estimable young Indy of seventeen years of age, to be stripped perfectly naked Jn ids'pres ence, h ceremony which was performed by his officers. Is tins bmto Wild still alive? f®“Wo find the following account of tho arrival of the steamer “ Doer Lodge” at Fort Borthold, in the Republican, of Nov. 10, a sprightly daily paper printed at Omaha city, Nebraska.

There aro tour-oi them yet above, the Imperial, Zephyr, r,ady Orneo and Benton. The Imperial was about !•»() miles above Fort, ilieo, almost entirely out of provisions, and her large list of passen gers siulering considerably. They were receiving very meager supplies from Mlllclllver bv Indi ans, who curried to them flour at 150 mtics dis tance and.sold it to them ntthe rate of SlUOa sack, ami Howards. Tho passengers of tho Zephyr were about'in tho same condition. Mr. Bosler had no doubt, however, hut Hint tho boats wore able to get to Fort Herihold before the river clos ed with ice, and then they would get a bountiful supply of provisions, lie thinks the lec must have cleaved the river by this time. The Lady Uraee and Benton were both lower down. The former was heavily loaded and working slowly up to her destination. The Ben ton seemed to be get ting along more successfully, and would Undoubtedly reach port. There were in fie neighborhood of four hundred mountain men in Mackinaws coming down. All of whom won til f»c likely to reach here by the first of De cember. /•(‘here are some throe thousand of tho Qros. \ artres.

Judge PAuihsu, of Winchester, Vir ginia, was arrested, under au order of the Superintendent of tho Negro Bu reau of that town, because “ Union men could not get justice from him,” The immediate cause of the arrest is as fol- Ilows: Tho members'of the Methodist Church North in Winchester have ta ken possession of the church building-in that town, although the minority of tho church in tho town; and the members of the church South have brought suit in Judge Parker’s court for possession of the building. Tho parties in posses sion fear tho result of the suit, and to prevent its coining to trial have resort ed to the plan of arresting the Judge.— This being thoroughly Radical will, of course, lie approved by all the faithful up hero. The Illinois State Register says that an old man standing on the street in Springfield the other day, addressing a crowd on tho subject of politics, said, when asked what he thought of the ne gro, that he thought the “nigger a big thing.” lie said he had lived to see the nigger break up the old Whig par ty, to which he belonged, had seen him divide and distract the Democratic par ty, had seen him cause a terrible civil war, had seen him break up the white man's Union, and had recently seen him eau.-e the defeat of the Republican party in Pennsylvania and Ohio, and hoped to live to see him defeat, ruin and anni hilate tho Radicals in the Presidential election next year. Let it lie home in mind continually that at the late elections five members of the Rump Congress from Pennsylva nia and nine from Ohio were rebuked by the people for their course on im peachment and “reconstruction.”— Those fourteen individuals cannot act at liie next session as they have done heretofore without misrepresenting their constituencies. Unless, therefore, they are prepared to change their views, they should at onee prepare to resign and allow the people of their districts to elect men who will reflect popular views upon national questions. The Impeachment Question.— 'l'he Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Press writes that the ma jority report of the House Judiciary com mittee will lie against the impeachment of the President. A minority report, favoring impeachment, signed by Messrs. Boutwcll, Thomas, Lawrence and Williams, will he rendered. In short, the committee stands now as it did before the recess. Both reports will he ready to he submitted on the 21st instant, the first day of the session. It is an important fact that the three largest and most powerful States in the Union, whose population is fully equal to one-third of the aggregate in the whole thirty-seven States—namely, Now York, Pennsylvania and Ohio— have this fall declared against the course and “policy” of the Radical leaders. This important fact cannot be ignored, nor can tho lesson it teaches bo disregarded at the next session of the Rump, Congress. The Chase men sneer at tho attempts made by certain Republican journals to bring out Gen. Grant os the Republican candidate for President. The Colum bus (Ohio) Journal says: "Why must wo nlwnyn K b onslliic nbont for ‘ovanoble’ matoriol, Instead of fearlessly taklno our representative men foromco?

Washington, D. C., November 13, The army and Navy Union, having ten dered to President Johnson a cangratola tory serenade, they invited all the Con servatives and Democrats to join them in a demonstration to-night. The pro cession formed at the Headquarters of the Army and Navy Union, composed of dele gations and associations including John son clubs and Unions of Washington and Georgetown, and a largo number of'sol diersaud sailors. The various army flligs, banners, transparencies, lanterns, torch es, <fcc., were carried in the procession, and duri ;g the march, there was a con tinuous display of rockets.ami other fire works. There were three bands of mu sic. A broom, about four feet long and and nearly as broad, with a huge handle, was significantly exhibited. It is the same one that was peaented to President Lincoln, and which was purchased at an auction sale. When the procession arriv ed at the Executive Mansion, the Presi dential salute, ami a salute of one hun- dred guns were fired. The dense mass of spectators repeatedly called for and cheer ed the President. Music was played iu the meanwhile, and fire-works exhibit ed. A committee consisting of Col. Jas. A. Tait, Col. P. H, Allabach, and Col. J. R. O’Reirne escorted the President to the front of the Mansion, where be was greet ed with repeated cheers. Col. O’Beirne addressed the President as follows : Mu. President:—The conservativear- my and imvy Union, of the District of Colombia, tender you, their honored cbipf, the compliment of a grand sere luule, in congratulation of the nowJy pro mised hope lor the welfare of our recently hitherto unhappy country* Our conserv ative friends throughout the District of Co lumbia, representing the different States of the Union, join us in trusting that the present with its arrangements, may be a harbinger of the renewed future prosperi ty, tranquility, and brotherly love throughout our land. We invoke Providence to strengthen your hands, to give courage and fortitude, and aid you in the successful performance of the mission. It is your’s to perform. Sains populi lex supremo. cat. The President then addressed the as semblage, as follows; Fellow Citizens :—lt is not my inten tion to make an address upon this occas ion, but to simply tender you my thanks for this demonstration, a demonstration approbating what your fellow citizens have declared in the recent elections in the various States of .the Union. They will appreciate your response to what they have done and semi back a greeting that the Union of the States must be maintained according to the original de sign of our fathers. X confess lam grati fied but not surprised at the result of the recent elections. I have always had un- • doubting confidence In the people. They may be sometimes misled by a lylngspirit in the mouths of their prophets, but nev er perverted, and in the end they are al ways right. In the gloomiest hours through which I have passed—and many of them, God knows, have been dark en ough—when our Constitution was in per il ; when our free institutions were assail ed by a formidable foe, and our great Re public seemed to be tottering to Us full, and when I felt how vain were my eiforta, alone, to preserve those institutions in their integrity, and save the Republic from ruin, I was still hopeful. I hud still an abiding confidence in them, and I felt assured that they, in their might, would come to the rescue. They have come, and thanks to God that our Repub lic may yet be saved. It was but the other day that I olllciully declared that the remedy for the present unhappy con dition of the country, mustcome from the people themselves. They know what that remedy is, and how it is to be appli ed. At the present time, they cannot, ac cording to the forms of the Constitution, repeal those obnoxious laws. They can not remove or control this military despot ism. The remedy, is nevertheless in their hands, and is a sure one if not controlled by fraud or overawed by arbitrary power or from apathy ou their part. Too long delayed, with abiding confidence in their patriotism, wisdom and integrity, I am still hopeful that in the end the rod of despotism will be broken, the armed heel of power lifted from the neck of the peo ple, and the principled of a violated Con stitution preserved. The people have spoken in a manner not to be misunder stood. Thank God that they have spoken, for it is upon their intelligence and in tegrity that I have always relied and still rely. The Constitution of the country which was imperilled, had recently been before them for consideration, and it has had new life and vigor imparted to it from its original source, the people.lt comes back to us with renewed strength. Let it now be translated high up in the Heavens, written in letters of living light, as the symbol of liberty, Union, justice and fraternity. . Good night. The President was then cheered during the delivering of the speech, and also on its conclusion, and retired from the stand amid repeated cheers, and instrumental music. Frequent culls were made for Attorney General Stanberry, He was on the pre mises, but did not appear to make a speech, THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. If all the Southern States are admit ted, the full electoral vote will bo 317 ; absolute majority required, 150. Revolutions never go backward, and the present one will progress steadily bringing in under the Conservative banner other States, and confirming by increased majorities those that have al ready cut adrift from Radical rule. No one, it is to be presumed, will de ny that the following States are absolu tely and hopelessly lost to the Radicals for the next Presidential contest, viz: California, Connecticut, Delaware, Ken tucky, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsyl vania, New York, and Ohio. They poll -119 votes, leaving 40 to insure an abso lute majority. with present prospects' can there be any doubt but.that they can be readily obtained ? Indiana and Illi nois give twenty-nine votes. Will not both of these States wheel into line?— When wo see in one year a change of 45,000 in the Radical majority in Massa chusetts, may we not even hope for that fossil State, and still more so for. New Hampshire and Maine. Then there are several of the Northwestern Stateswhich undoubtedly will cut loose from Radi cal rule within the coming year, and it will be impossible, with all ; their har dihood of action and defiance of the Constitution, for the extremists to-be groize all the Southern States, so that some of them will not undoubtedly vote for the Conservative candidate.— Though it will take some time to re form the Senate, the Radical rule will be destroyed in the next House, and all power fqf further mischief taken from theni. Let ps then be thankful for the bright skies above. We have an abid ing conviction that the Republic is saved.— National Intelligencer .

TERRIBLE CALAMITY. On© of tlie West India Islands Snlmiorgcd and Ten Thousand Persons Browned. 4c, . Tortola, one of the British West India Islands, Sub merged and 10,000 Bertons Drowned—Terrible Hur ricane in the Southern Port of Porto Itico —‘200 Lives Lost and 4,000 Families Destitute—Great Loss of BplceatSU Thomas. Havana, November 14. —Tontola, [probably Tortola] one of the British West Indies, has been submerged, and ten thousand persons drowned. Advices from Porto Rico to the 7tb Inst, have been received. A terrible hurricane had visited the southern por tion of the island, destroying all the crops. Two hundred lives wore lost, and four thousand families are destitute.- Provis ions were to be lauded duty free for two months. Subscriptions had been opened in Ha vana for the relief of the sufferers at St. Thomas. The Liverpool steamer which was sunk during the hurricane carried down $5,- 000,000 in specie and merchandise. The loss of the Steamship Company, at St. Thomas, will amount to $12,000,000. Some five hundred bodies remaining unburied have been burnt on the island. Description of Tortola, Tortola, which a despatch by the Cuba cable announces has been submerged, with a loss of ten thousand persons, is one of the Virgin Islands West Indies, belonging to Great Britain, situated be tween Virgin Gordaand St. John’s. The length of The Island is twelve miles and its breadth four miles. It consists mostly of a range of hillf rising to IGOO elevation and in its north part encircling a harbor, on the west side of which is the town of Tortola. The island is very un healthy to Europeans. Tortola has its Governor, Council, and Legislative As sembly. It became a British possession in 1866. Greeley on Grant. Col. J. W. Fornoy publishes in hie two papers, both daily, a summary of the reasons why Gen. Grant ought to be the Republican candidate for yie Presidency. He kindly refrains from reviewing the military career of ’the distinguished soldier; but, as he de votes to the catalogue of his civic vir tues five solid columns of the very big gest .type'-BVer used on The Press t we cannot complain that he has done less than justice to his subject. As human life in New York is too short for any body to read five columns of The Press, we have reduced Col. Forney’s points to these: 1. Gen. Grant succeeded Mr. Stanton as Secretary of War; this be ing an act of “rare sagacity and cour age.”- 2. Gen. Rawlins believes in Grant. 3. E. B. Washburnebelieves in Grant. 4. Senator Thayer, of. Nebra ska, believes in Grant. 5. “ Several gentlemen named in connection with the Presidency” have promised to vote for him. G. What his principles are is nobody’s business. All these points are of course put with that Spartan terseness of style and de licious beauty of phrase for which the venerable Secretary of the Senate has long been famous; but we mustconfess that they fail to stimulate in us the gen erous enthusiasm which warms the Col onel’s breast.

During the investi gation we were sensible of the Important seleiitlile results which hung upon our decision. Wo first called upon four young gentleman whosatup In company with a black bottle and a pack, of cards, und they declared that the meteors fell as thick as sparks from a burning build ing; hot as we had I‘reiiuontly ■ heard of people '‘seeing stars” under similar cir cumstances wo were compelled to discard their testimony. Another young gentle man from the rural districts informed us that lie was returning home in n buggy, between three and four o'clock, and saw “ nary” a meteor; but on cross-examina tion we learned he had a young lady with him in the buggy, and it would bo sim ply absurd to supposehc would have seen the meteors oven if there had been any. The only meteor ho was thinking of was “ meet-her by moonlight.” But the as tronomers tell us that the celestial fire works did come off. There was erable shooting among the stars at New Haven, Albany, Detroit, Chicago, Elch mond and Charleston, but as far as re ported there was “ nobody hurt.” If the display in 1833 was no grander than that of ISO 7, wo are afraid our stretched the story a little. The meteors are described as “ having tails,” and in tills respect resembled the ghost of Ham let’s father, who “could a tale unfold.”— The performance concluded with the " Star Spangled Banner.” . Broke Jail.—On Sunday night, be tween three and four o’clock, the negro John Burns, who was convicted, last week, on several Indictments for larceny, succeeded in breaking jail and escaping. He was confined in a cell on the second lloor, and with an iron wrench, taken from the water closet, succeeded in* mak ing a hole in the wail sufficiently large to admit his body. Making a rope from his blanket, he landed himself to the ground. Then, taking a board and pla cing it against the outer wall, ho gained the top ; then going back towards the jail, to where a largo tree leans against the wall, it is supposed he threw himself into its brnnehesand was lowered into theyard connected with the residence of Samuel Hepburn Jr. from which he doubtless “ made tracks” for the country, ''An;ex amination of the jail wall shows it to have bean constructed of very Inferior material. There are a few large stones on the outside, but the inner portion of the wall is filled in with stones scarcely larger than an ordinary fist. We believe no traces have been discovered of .Burns. War in South Middleton.—On Monday, the 18th inst., the peaceful vll lugc 4tf-,Papertown was the scene of a bloodless battle between two females' by the names of Laura Smith and Ann Ziegler. It appears that a sister opera tive in the new paper mill had her din ner stolen, and one of the, assistants .was charged with the theft; whereupon-the assailed party determined to assert her innocence by a resort to physical strength. The ** boss” of the establishment not al lowing blood to be spilled in the mill, they went outside and began a furious assault upon each other with fists, upon the Bayer and Heenan principle,.with the modern improvement of pulling hair, “scratching out each others' eyes out,” &c., until they had to be separated by the timely arrival upon the battle field of the women who remained neutral until the lives of the champions were at stake. The result of the battle was one hat lost never to recover, one bonnet lost, but recovered by the boys who made diligent search. We were not informed whether the combatants receiyed 'any mortal in juries or not, but understand they were able to leave the field without an ambu lance. - . I , Leg Broken.— On Saturday morning last, John Perlett, messenger at the.Ball road and Telegraph Office/inet , with a serious accident, while coupling some care to the freight train on tlie Cumber land Valley Rail-road. He was standing with one foot on the bumper of a car be longing to the Messrs. Bee, and the other on the bumper of a coal car. The bum per of Bee's car was considerably higher than that of the coal car. Perlett sig nalled the engineer to go ahead, which he mistook for a signal to back ; the front part of the train backing unpeoted ly to Perlett, and the higher bumper passing over the lower one, caught his leg and caused a serious fracture between the knee and thigh, which will confide him to tho house for weeks. New York Apples.— Our citizens will be pleased to learn that Messrs.

Teachtiie Women to Save.—There's the secret I A saying woman at the head of a family is the very best savings bank yet established—one who receives depos its and hourly with no costly ma chinery to manage it. The idea of sav ing is a pleasant one, ami if the women would imbibe it at once, they would cul tivate and adhere to. ifc ( and thus; when they were not aware of it, would be lay ing the foundation ofA competent securi ty in a stormy time, and shelter in a rainy day. The woman who sees to her own house, has a large, field to save In. The best'way to make herfcomprehendltisto keep an account of all current expenses. Probably not one woman in ton has an idea of how much are the expenditures of herself and family. Where from one to two thousand dollars are expended an nually, there is. a chance .to save some thing if the effort Is only 1 made. Let the housewife take the idea, act upon it, and she.will save many dollars, perhaps hun dreds, where before slie thought it impos sible.- ’- r ; : ;; •. . ,- ; A “ Local’s" First Effort Wo took a new reporter on trial last week.- Ho werit out to hunt items/and after be ing away all day, returned with thefollow lug, which'he said was the best he could do: "Yesterday wo saw a sight which froze pur muscles with horror.
