Allegheny City Railroad Bonds*
•W® aro gratified to be able to state that,
there is now a fair prospect of-s- compromise
between the city authorities of Allegheny and
the holders of her railroad bonds. The Com- '
mittee appointed by Councils, some time since, ■
to confer «pon this subject, was in session last
evening with a Committee representing the
principal holders of jtho railroad bonds issued
by the corporation, and while the basis of
compromise is said to be favorable to the city,
h is at the same time deemed jast and equit
able to the bondholders. We sincerely nope
that this matter may now reach a finality, as
it willTeliere the city of an immense deal of
expense and annoyance, and wipe out a dis
agreeable record. Should the bondholders see
fit not to meet the city representatives in a
liberal spirit, however, pay day maybeindefi
nitely postponed, to the loss and inconvenience
efboth parties. If they are wise they will
not refuse “the bird in hand.” —

Desperate Fight in Wirt County, Va.
The Wheeling Intelligencer, of Thursday,
states that a desperate fight took place a day
or two-siuce in Wirt county, betwoon Capt.
Simpson's company, 11th Virginia regiment,
and a much larger number of Moccasin
Rangert. Capt. Simpson's men were in a
house getting something to eat, and the house
was surrounded by tbe Moccasin*, who de
manded a surrender. Capt. Simpson declined
and a .fight ensned. Some eight or ten of the
Moccasins were killed, and they were driven
back into tho' woods. Among the number
killed of the Moocasins is the notorious Pat.
(jonnoly, trho has boasted of having in his
possession thirty-one scalps-of Union men.
The fight lasted about ono hour.

long,’ having two natural head*—one on each
end. Tbe two .heads wero similar in all re
spects, as far as could bo ascertained on closo

nothing farther can be effected until the treat
ies to be submitted to the Senate shall hare
been ratified.

New grenade, maintained the latter proposi
tion, and Messrs. Cox and Dean, of Ohio,. for
tho claimants, the former. Tho Commis

why tho gallant Lyon was sacrificed; why
