It is a boat in which the seats are so arranged that the boat can be dipped, the water almost coming over the side. Just after da skin the eveniug two men take their places in the boat and row up one side of Heaver river for a distance of about a mile, keeping the dipped side of the boat as near as possible to the bank. This cotriranee can only be used when the river iB on the rise, as the fish then congregate along the shore. As the boat passes along the shore the fish become frightened and jump into the boat After going up,the boat is rowed to the other side where the same tactics are pursued. No light is used, and the darker the night the better. The part ies using this system have been at it for some time, and every night come in with a large catch. The fish are unable to escape owing to the bottom of the boat nearly touching the bed of the river, thus forcing them to jump directly into the boat. There is no law coverihg this ingenious method of poaching, but it is probable that the Fish Warden will find some method of stopping it. The Union Re-union Wednesday August 2Gth will be thenext red-letter day for Butler as that is the day that has been relected by the survivors of the 78th and 100 th Pa; volunteers and 4th cavalry for their reunion here.

On Tuesday evening last the Council held its regular monthly meeting, and the reading of the minutes of the last regular and special meetings aud the consideration of the bills presented occupied considerable time. Quito a number of small bi;ls were approved, and a warrant was ordered drawn in favor of Mr. Osborne, the paving contractor, for S6OOO on account. Tbe petition for the paving of Diamond St. was reported to be completed, and in proper shape, and the ordinance for paving it was adopted. The paving is to be 20 feet wide, the side walk 14 feet, anil the walks around the Court Hon** and Diamond Square 0 feet. Tbe tbiug done that evening of most general interest was the passage of a Dog Ordinance, which has been printed, and will therefore be in effect in ten days. It provides for the muzzling of all dogs in the town, during the months of July and August, and authorizes the High Con-table to catch and impound all unmuzzled dogs found on our streets during those mouths, give notice to the owners, if known; hold them for 48 hours, and then kill and bury them; the H. C. to have $1 for each dog so caught, killed or redeemed. Several complaints were laid in against the method Mr. H. W. Christie is taking in the laying of his water pipes, ie opening a long ditch and allowing it to remain open for several days, and a motion to notify Mr. Christie to till and tamp a.- per ordi nance carried. The same notice will also begiven to all the licensed plumbers. No ditch can leinain open longer than 48 hours, and all crossings must be covered at night, and guarded by a lighted lamp. The dralt cf E. Clay St. from Franklin to Monroe was adopted; the offset at Franklin St. is 29 fact. The profile of E. Wayne St. from Main to McKean was approved of. C. Duffy was ordered to build a board walk, along his property on Willow or Fairground St. The people of Centre Ave. are to be notified to make their sewer connections before paving; the E. Jefferson St. sewer must be completed in 3 days; and a com mittee of the Council will view the Orphans Home drainage. The question of the health of the town wa j seriously considered, and on motion the Board of Health were requested to meet with the Council to consider the matter; the Police were ordered to report all nuisances to the Council and to make a tour of the town, once a week. An ordinance regarding throwing rubbish in streets nnd alleys was adopted. The wing walls and fills for the Centre Ave, bridge was talked over, and the matter is not yet settled. In that con nection also, it was stated that Mr. Ott had shipped his iron pipe here and that Mr. Fullerton would not let him enter the ground, and the sewer Committee was authorized to give bond and go ahead. Mr. Slater is moving his house back, and the Finance Committee will attend to his damages. Changing the location of the fire plugs will, in some cases, lessen the water pressure, and the matter was talked over. Curved pipes instead of elbows would be better. The Fire Committee was authorized to buy new hose for the Ist Ward Co.; the Council was invited to the Pipe Line picnic; and adjourned till next Tursday evening. At the meeting of last week the Frank lin St. sower was adopted, and bids order ed to bo advertised for; Long & Doyle were given the contract for completing the paving of E. Jefferson St., Mr. Kciber having signed the petition, and the con tract for W. Jefferson was also amended so as to include tho street to Race St. The Markets. BCTLKR MARKETS.
