On Sun day afternoon last a row occurred between a prty of Intoxicated Germans, In a small lehuiity near McKinr.'ey's Hotel, Fegundas City, which resulted in the death of ooe Of the parties. It appears that tbey had pro cured a half keg f lager beer, and taken It to the shanty f r tho purpose of having a ju..iflcit.on all by themselves. As the leer wtat down their throats la proportion their Eght;ag propensities rose, and finally culminated la a general row in which (he man alluded to above was killed, and a brother of his badly beaten. The murder ed man was ruly cut about the head, and Sad his left arm nearly severed from the body. The body was taken in charge by 11.3 citizens and held to await tho action of tba wro.icr'a jury. We did not learn the names of the moa engaged In the murder, or that any arrests bad been made. Lau.u From another gentleman just from West Hickory, we learn that the kill ing was accidental, and resulted while the tw? .uotaers were engaged in ecnllling. It Is a most unfortunate affair, but our Inform iit suits no blame can be attached to the living brother. Liquor appears to be at the bottom cf the affair. Th -33 fuvorite singers, the Tyrolean Al pine Troupe, guve another one of their se- lect outertutnments at the Opera Uouue Saloon, last evening.

Mr. Editor: Representations having been made through tlm press and otherwise that I am responsible for the reputation Petroleum Centra lias abroad, 1 desire to say a few thing explanatory: 1. Petroleum Centre had its reputation abroad before. 1 ever became, a resident of of this p'ace, and I am not aware that it is any worse now than it was Iben. I rather think the reputation of the place is better than it was two years ago. 2. I bare never written, nor caused to be written any article damaging to the char acter of the citizens of thi community or injurious to its legitimate business interests. In fact I liuvu writ ten nothing at all for the press, save about ten lines of warning to servant girls, tor the Buft'.Uo Express, and this Rev. Mr. Ptuin and myself were au thorized to write by a meeting of citi.i-ne, which was nut evta called at my instiga tion. 3. I have neither spoken nor thought anything nt any place or time concerning the character of this town, to which any respectable man or woman could take ex ception. jUy remarKs at Indianapolis, in correctly reported for I he Pittsburgh Com mercial, set forth the bright side of our biutory to relieve the reputation given to the place by others. I would not have this explanation regard- td as an apology lor the evils which do abound in our midst, for the extermination of which every true man should labor, but beg leave to refer the informers of the Editor ol the Jamestown "Journal,'' and all othcri who think as he writes to I Kings XVIII, 17, 18. C. M. ITearo. Tue pE'ritoi.Ei'ii Market. The attitude taken by the British Government, protest ing against the Invasion of Belgium, and the avowed neutrality of Belgium, which it is said France will respect, will give a more confident and firmer tone to ' the pe troleum market on this side, as Antwerp is the great petroleum market and port of Europe. The latest news to the effect that Russia bag taken sides with Prussia, if true, is significant. The Russian navy will make a rewerful offset to the French navy and marine. Intelligent observers coutend that an t Hideo t blockade of Bremen and other German ports is out of the question. Such a view shows that the export trade of pe troleum will by no means cut off, tboug the carrying trade may be tranet'erted English or Ainerion bottoms. Herald. A New York paper lately announced that Olive Logan bad "married her uncle.1' What the editor wrote was "sprained her ankle." The latest mairiage announcements read thus: "Xo curds, no cake, no presents, no wedding vorce."' trip, no honeymoon, nodi- J! ad am a Olympe Audonaid says: "The only thing which can make of inurriRge a calm, happy and ennobling union instead of, as is too often now, an eternal torure, is divorce." "Johnny, does you leve me!" "Well Susy, 1 does.'' "Bow do you know thai you loves me!" "Kane, Susy, whenever 1 looks at you my heart jumps up, and kuoelts agiu my stummick so baid that 1 don't have any appetite for a week after ward." Chicago has paid $2,250 for leaving a gas pite in the sheet, when It rolled on a little boy and killed bim. !2The New York Sun bus a beading, Di vorced," between the "Marriages" and "Deaths," and the record, Monday, related that Frances A. Field bad been divoiced rom Georgo Field, and Emma C. Pasior rom William II. Pastor. The inference is that the ladies Intend to "seek greener Field and Pastors." ' When a Nevada man gets bis skuil frac tured three times with a brick the loca press delicately and ingeniously refer to the affair as "a controversy with a friend." A Wisconsin geotlemei Insisted upon putting himself on the free list of a circus by crawling under the cauvies lately, and In a debate with the geutlemaniy and ur bane proprietor, was gathered to bis fath ers.

On tho 23th day of May, nn Erie freight car Uden with boots aud shoes, left Jersey City for San Francisco, having applied to it an adjustable gauge running gear. The car run over the Erie, broad gauge, to Buf falo, and then on the Lnko Shore road, gaugo 4 feet 10 inches, to Cleveland, thence to Chicago on the compromise gauge, 4 leet Inches breaking gaugo again at Chicago it ran to the Missouri River on the Chicago Rock Island and Pacifio gauge, 4 feet 8' inches. The car was detained. by tho June freshet five days at the Missouri River, at expiration of which time it again started over tho Union and Central Pacific to Sac ramento, and tho West Pacifio to San Fran cisco; running timo 14'.j days. Leaving San Franciseo on tho 21st ot June, the car arrived at Jersey City last Friday, her freight sale, and her owners delighted. B The patent is a stout steel "feather" In serted in a laterna! groove In tho axlo in which notches are cut. In breaking gauge the car is run off upon a side track which adjusts tho wheels to the gauge required, whero they are held by the notches. The wheel is a broad blangod wheel, and will run from the broad gauge upon the compro. mise gauge, 4 feet 91-2 Inches, without ad' justing the wheels. Mr. W. B. Snow, the patentee of tho above invention, is well known here, aud his many friends will be glad to learn of the success of the inveition. 'JTIio Devil Dead- According to an Eastern exchange a skel eton has been lately unearthed Dear Morris- ville, Ind., with all the. peculiarities of form that Old Nick is supposed to have; about five feet ten inches high, skull de pressed in front, two horns just above the forehead, turning backwards, long arms and spinal bone of remarkable length ter minating in a tail (tale) about a loot and a half in length. Some credulous people are inclined to belie vo It is the skeleton ol the devil himself, and probably take It as a consolation. If these really are the remains of the old fellow, long since dead, there are plenty of persons living who personate bim so well that it is not like he will bo missed. t News.

Two men named Phillip', father an in digging a well In Steele county, Jrtnne sola, struck a vein of gas, from tho effects of which the elder Phillips died.
