apon Mr. DaTld Whltehoaw, of SohnylUll oonnty, to 
whloli I wish to state some eioeptloos. la th« Ont place, 
Mr. " Argna?' was not on the noand at the time of the 
raoe, nor does he know anjthlng of the natter except 
fkom hearsay. Tbef«otaoftheoaeeare,a8nearasIoan 
tell them, as foUows-Hr. D. Whltehonse, although a resi- 
dent of BohaylkUl oonnty, Is not a natlre; be Is a straight- 
forwud sportsman In every sense of the word-a nun of the 
most strlot honesty and mtegrity, one whoae word Is as 
Irrevocable aa the laws of the Me dea and Penlansi^he Is 
opposed by a fkotlon In said oonnty, who endeavor to 
pat him down by erair means; he langha at their pnny 
efforts, and vlna their money, both on the tnrf and 
at the trap, Aboat one year ainoe he toooght a horse 
(torn " Old Tlrglnnv,^' oo whose mnoing he has made 
some pewter ttom the Bohnylklll oonntr boys; this so 
enraged then that they songht to oaten Savy asleep. 
Aooordlngly they haoted. aroond the mod try antll they 
foond a horse to salt tbeir Ideas, and by mlsiepresentlog 
the matter made a match. They callM to their aaalal 
tanoe some of the Berks ooanly sports, (Argas. perhaps 
amooget them) bat with all their dnit and ohloaneryooald 
not wui,,benoe the howling we hear f^cm the oofs. 

To ahow " Argns" and hli party that I am right I will 
call the attention of one of his partv to a renuik he made 
to me at the B. B. Depot, In Beading, on the day of the 
race, when waiting the arrival of the train for PottsvUle. 
Bald he " have yoa got a haadred dollara I" I replied 
" what do yoa want with It 1" " Why we have adead aore 
thing In Potlavllle to day, we've matched a horse agalnat 
Dave Whllehoaie ; Its a regalar plant,— we can't lose— 
we're snre to irin, so If yoa have the money yoa'd better 
InvesL" I don't like sore things, so I did not Inveat, hot 
aa I am Davy's friend, jost stepped Into the Telegraph

Asttrastheresaltof theraoe weat, I believe It to

parUea who witnessed li Of this lam saUefled, If David

to see a little manoenverlng on land, a Mr. McNabb 
bavbg, In all the plentltode of yellow posters, expressed 
his Intent of traveling ai'onnd the Union Oonrse, two 
hnndred mHea, within the space of ten bonrsi I perhaps 
ahonld have passed the banter withoat notloe, had It not 
toen from the fact thabdnrlng the late war In Mexico; t 
was once or twioe forced to volnnteer the carriage of 
certain dispatches, not a very great distance It Is trne, 
bat then It was Jack ashore, and I did It for the fim of 
the thing, albeit, I had nantow esoapea of presenting my 
ooipaa pretty well riddled— at times. I managed to 
reach the moorings of the Spirit In good time, bdt foand 
no " watch on deok," In faot all hanas matt have tamed 
In rather late, for Ifonnd none stirring, so I made for the 
Oriental Hotel where, Inohlly failing In with a nieiamate 
who had a raa aehore the night prevldae, I managed 
to do pretty fair jaetice to mine hoet Pollard's fare. After 
two fatlle attempts to find any life In the Smrr qnarters, 
and lacking a oompasi, made tniohs forUie neaieat livery 
stable, managing to bring op at a. White light, from 
whence we were doly propelled by as pretty a roan aa 
ever pattered over the road. Annmlng the reins, al- 
thqngnto acknowledge the corn, I am as green aboat 
roads as my sconce, I he^cd sonthward, and managed 
to atrlke the right thoronghfare, following in the wake 
of a fair fleet of vehlcleSi I knew I was right on the 
tnm, altboDgh my coav<^ swore I was ont ofmy reckon- 
ing, beoanse we.broaght np at a bar ood were only kept 
Srorn grenndlng by paying lighterage. On passing thla 
obetmotlon we made all sail possible, that isll took a 
reefin the reins and laid on tne whip, which sUmnlas 
oar nag seemed anxlons to elade, for he pat oat his best 
pace, and by naok of aoarefol eye on the tiller, we 
managed to lead the fleet, having escaped seriooa damage 
on three or foor collisions. J noted not the roadway 
antll we were tosleged by a host of bnm-boat toys deet^ 
Ing to diipose of flowers, bat we elnded their pertinacity 
In a clond of dnat: tnmed off the plank-road into a mis- 
erable abortion or a street, whoM only recommendation 
was that It led to the abode of a " Nightingale." When 
we came in sight yon tot, we took in eaU and hove to' 
for provisions, which, with sailing direotlons, we soon 
were provided with. We made sail agalo> bat some how

spot marked down In the map as the Wlllowa It looked 
so tempting that we went ashore, and I can assnre yoa, 
we enjoy ed oor vlilt A band of mnslo was In attendance, 
plenty ofpretty women aronnd, and ohampagde In pro- 
fosloo. Sfeard some talk here atont a Soaday law, but 
after personal Inspection, take my word for It, Its potency 
was nnlllfled there. We sat for an hoar or so watching 
the train of vehicles oatward bound, bngglei, dog carts, 
omnlbnsser, fnralture wagons, cato,..oarrleKee, etages, 
coaches, carts and milk wagons, all filled with Joyona 
crews, emnloos of reachlog the haven tttf. Flddbg It 
Impossible to elude the thick and dotty donds ahead, we 
mue a fceth start and brooffht ap at the harbor of the 
track— along side of an omnibus, whose providential ap- 
pearance, perhapa, aaVed our lives, or else one. ,would 
bave toen deposited on terra flrma Involantarlly. After 
running the gauatlet of a score of y oang land sharks, 
managed to come to anttable anobrage and tied np, 
taking shank's mare for the scene of action. After a 
few notes of preparation we entered Uie arena, bat were 
not met by a apeclal committee l>at took open oureelvea 
the privilege of a promlscaous seat Dodged ia and 
around a crowd of acme three thoautnd dust begrimed 
Indlvidaals, and saw a man In bis ablrt sleeves monnted 
on a qoeer looking horse, putting In his tost lloks aronnd 
the coarse. A oommuolcatlve Btranger kindly Informed 
us that the rider was the gteat McNabb, whom he was 
willlDg to tot a cool hundred ooold not accomplUh the 
task. Did not accept the tooter, as I bad no luoh inm

hnndred persons present, all of whom were Intent on the 
raoe, save a few soore who Bought the retreats beneath, 
hnd locoed coolness and qaenehed tUrst by Imbtbatlon. 

"There he comes," was the nnlveraal cry, as we stack 
onr nose and visual organs ontslde the door, aad saw over 
the crowd a bead and ahoulders going In a rather leisure- 
ly style. "All right," cried one, and then a shower of 
bank-notes fell and a general stampede ensued for the 
same, the majorlfy seemingly Ignoriog the fact that oar 
currency was a metallic one, althongh as one would 
aaturalfy suppose it would neoessltate a brazen ooaute- 
nanoe te pau snch flimaleSi Took one of them ap after 
a scramble; foaad they were bdt friend Le Connt's ad-, 
vtrtlalng mediums, confessed the sell and, liquored, 
although meoially vowing the direst revenge, which L 
will pay one of these days. Oa entering the vlotuallng 
department, foond a long bar .devoted to fluids, a shorter 
one to solids, and a mmor one to the etherlal eegar. 
Patronized all, drank champagne at one, eat eggs at 
tother, and blew a clond at the third. Emerged Into a 
hnrrloane, a ilroooo of dnat, and' gazed around. All the 
tiers of opluraed faces looked one hue— dost; the crowd 
who were dp In the wheelhouse (they called It the judges 
stand,,bntas no judgment was exercised In keeping. It 
dear of a crowd, I prefer the former term), there they 
were pUed In hnddledy— icnddedly. I wonder how they 
managed to steer dear In such a duat begrimed crowd. 
Eveiywhere and everything was alike— dnst Managed 
to crawl throngh a break In the paling fence and fonnd 
ourselves on the sward, out of the dnat, and felt relieved. 
After a whiff or two of the freeh air, bearing In mind the 
promise of a full and reliable report of prooesdlogs, took 
a survey of the fleld: Found some six or seven oartlagee 
filled with gaily dressed feminlnes. A neighbor CBUed 
them sharks, bat I guess he never saw a mermaid, for 
thev were all too pretty M each a mess of flah as first 
designated; found them rather oate, for ou asking the 
prettieat of the crowd bow she felt, she replied rather 
dry, and a bottle of Heldsleck wu the response. Drank 
and left a wiser bat not a sadder man. By this time the 
great equestrian bad managed to execute some one 
hundred miles In four hoars, forty mluutes aad a half, so 
It was voted nem «on necessary to replenish the larder,' 
and Mr /ortt, we tmdged over to Beatty's Hotel, where 
the inner man was soon gratified with «ucA a pUte of 
chloken fricassee; well, no matter, it was some and no 
mistake, no lobsconse— tat the genalae aad no mistake. 

We wnlled awav an hour or so, aad returned to tto 
track, Took a look at the corral and the animals; watch- 
ed the dismounting and mounting. I don't know much 
atont your California animals^ bat I ahonld think thsv 
were atrangers to the cnrry comb. They evinced oonsld- 
erable plnok, althongh, towards the end when the daring 
eqestrlan put ttom on two-mile beats, they needed aid 
and encouragement In the shape of a tender. IM person 
whokad command of the extra horee, dreased In a salt of 
corduroys, was the possessor of a remarkably haadsoms 
face, and, oo Inquiry, I learned that he was the owner of 
the etnd, and lived somewhere In a bay In the moon or 
half way there. The eseayer of the taak, af the close, 
naturally fonnd It tell on him, and he made tat slow 
work on the ontslde stretch, notwithstanding be had re- 
freshed himself tofore be had ridden 60 miles, and again 
before he reached the 120th. In faot he at one tine took 
seat in the grass, much to my dirgast, bnt soon was In 
his saddle again. 

During the time I was on the course, I kept watch op 
the peraou whose duty It was to detaoh a card; with ti.j 
number of the mile ridden, from a pack, and permit me 
here to do him theJosUoetosay he acted fair and eqnare. 

Among other notables, my attention waa directed to- 
wards the Chief of PoUoe and a squad of offloers, on duty, 
I suppose, tat they enjoyed that dnty hugely. As a re- 
spite from the tedium of the arena, I took a Bqaint cat- 
side, and was mnch amnnd by the bnatle and aoUvlty 
manifested In the continual arrival and departure of pub- 
lic vehlolea The scene was stirring In the extreme. I 
was Juit on the point of departnre, when some ooe, a 
stranger, at least, to me, did me the favor to present me 
to the proprietor of the oonrse, who did the honors in the 
genuine style, and throagh whose ooortesy I am enabled 
to present yon with the foUowbg tables of distances. I 
didnot see Jack Powers' ride, bnt I entertain the opinion 
that Mr. MoNab has achieved the greatest eqasstrlanfeat 
on record, oonaldering the stnd naed. It toats eveiythlng 
I ever heard ot He made his two hundredth mile lo 
tiwM hourt and forty-uvtn minulet, having thirteen minutes 
to spare, and seemed capable of riding filty more, as be 
expressed himself willing to do If any one doabted his 
powers, and was ready to make a substantial banter, 
which was not taken up. Below la his time:

AN EXTBAOBDINART WAGES. 

A raw days ago, a young gentleman. In company with 
a large circle of his friends, boasted of bis superior horse- 
manaolp. A wag present dffered to tot the horse agalnat 
forty dollars that be could produce one that our friend 
could not ride from the Capftol gate to the President's 
bouse, bare-back and standing; with a proviso that the 
horse should not kick or rear. The offer was accepted, 
and, at the appointed time, the assemblage met at the 
Capitol gate. The rider (a man df small stature) came 
prepared with a pair of Indian boocbsIob and a small 
package of renna pulv, to prevent him from slipping off, 
and two suspicious IdoUng bags, eappoaed to contain - 
tiimmlng-bauaat With the air of a confident gladiator 
he addressed his friends, and conoiuded by stating that 
the dinner he had ordered would get cold If the horse was 
not speedily brought 

" The horse Is ready," said the wag; and beckoning an 
aged African woodsawyer, (who was etandlog by, appa- 
renlv waiting for a job,) aaked him, in the gravest man- 
ner,ifhlsAorM ever kicked orreared. " What I "exclaim- 
ed the darkey, " dti horse kickt" at the same time plao- 
log bis aowAoTM on the pavement "No, massa, I'll 
swear 'fore God be never kicked or reared one tlmeslnoe 
this chile tau bonght him, three years ago." 

' By this time the merriment bnrat forih, and onr " che- 
valier" looked unutterable things. He swore he could 
win the wager. If he had to pat the saw-horae in a dump- 
ing-cart and make the trial; which, as he has never been 
known to give np a point, we presnmehe will do at some 
future day, when buslnees gets dull— Washing ton StatcB.

CRICKET MATCH EXTRAORDINARY 



PLA7ID BY GBEENWIOfl PENSIONEBS, AT THE FBIOBY GROUNDS, NEAB LSfflSHAU, ENGLAND, lABLT IN SGPTEUBEB, 1848. 



TBI novelly of the ooadltlona upon wUdh alons tbeie 
woro*oat bodi of Uie ooean would bo allowed to enter the 
llita, was the otuse of a large and faiUoaabla party at- 
tending each daj. These condftlons were, that tvenlj- 
two men shonld be ohosen on the Held, one-half of whom 
■honld be mlooi an arm, and the other a leg t Tet there 
was no lack of oandldatti for the honors of the bat and 
ball, and the namber was very soon selected. The wea- 
ther, too, was beantifally line; the looalltj seleeled for 



the display a most charming spot; and the spectators, as 
well as the aotora, appeared to be bigbl; amased. 

A lirge tent had been erected on the sonthem side of 
the field, and within It waa spread forth an ample sapplj 
of the creature oomforts of this life, to whloh the dlUpmat- 
ed t^ did ample Jnstloe. They were Invited to this en- 
tertainment by Mr. logersoU, of Lewlaham, who. In con- 
Jonotlon with Hr. Ireland and Hr. Staonton, had got It 
np at their sole expense, In addition to diatrlbntlngasom 
of money amongst the oonpetltors. Upon the first day 
the wickets were pllobed, and the sports commenced 



shortly after two o'olook, the bands striking np " Bale 
Britannia," tbe eleven one-armed man taking the first lo- 
nlnga; and during the whole tlma the bats and balls were 
at work, the epeotaton were kept In ah almost oootloned 
roar of langhter by the grotetqae flgores tbe poor old 
veterans made u they measorsd their length on the sllp- 
peiy sward in their vain eOorls to reach the ball, or to 
exerolae their dtmlnltbed " nnde^standIng" beyond their 
ordinary gait to reach the goal In time. 

Upon the first day the one-arms made 80 nuu In the 



first start, and 41 at the Moonl Oa Tasiday lliey u- 
sembled again with renewe4 vigor; and ndw tbe woodtn 
legs went at It In high glee. Their flr^t Innings made 82, 
and their second 4di tbns letvlog the gaba lo the one • 
arms by IS. Nothing conldexoeedlhedWfkt wllbwUcta 
they appeared to enjoy the sportf arttMunueasaadooiir • 
teona attention of llr. IngersoU to their WMt».ffhef una 
wasoonoloded by elx o'clock; and the hardy Mn^ooats 
marched In prooeaslon fhim the ground, bMded by tba 
band, banners, Aa, and were again entertained at a patt- 
ing f^ by Mr. logersoU, at the Black BoU Inn. '^K

Mb. Editob:— I read with deep Interest the eooonnt so 
admirably given by vonrself of the late fight for the Oham- 
ptonshlp of Ecgland, one so well oondaoted In every re- 
spect and so honestly and gallantlv contested that It out 
hardly fall to revive ths ancient giory of the ring, and to 
replace It In the same jtosltlon It formerly held as one of 
the natloDsl sports of Eogland. I, In oommon with many 
others, anticipated that, on the Saturday ancceedlng the 
fight, notice woald, as uraal, be given In AU'i Lift as to 
where the battle money, together with the belt, wonldbe 
tanded over to Bayera, but op to the present time no saob 
notification has been given. I last night beard that the 
eeremooy of handing over the battle moneys together 
with the belt, was to take place In a ttitatrt. I tmat I was 
nMnforniM, and that so gallant and old-fashioned a mill 
will not be marred by the concluding act; I trust we shall 
oee tbe battle money handed over and Bayers reinvested 
;wHh the belt In toe same manner as ths Obamplons of 
the good old times, at the boose' of a fighting nan; that 
Paddock will himself be pronnt, and when Bayers car- 
ries his hat round the room and empties it Into the lap of 
bis late gallant opponent, the Bubsorlptlon will be snob 
' as will prove to him that honesty and bravery, even when 
nnluocetanil, never go without their Jnat and merited re*

PEDE9TRI ANI8M, 
WALxma Matob,— This was a contest against time of 
a somewhat novel description, Joehna Smith of Asbton 
havbg nodertaken, for a wager of £10, made with Mr. 
Thomas Flnoh, o( Uanoheeter, to walk eight miles In two 
bouts, and to carry a legal fi6 lb. weight tbe entire dis- 
tance. Smith Is, we believe, a dealer in, or hawker pf, 
tobacco pipes, and hence he Is aooostomeid to walk long 
dlstanoes whilst orrylog heavy burdens, and this was 
not the first oooaslon on which be had engaged himself 
In a match against time. With regard to ue event of 
to day, opinion seemed, prior to the oommenoement ol 
the task, to be pretty eanally divided as to whether be 
conld aooompllth It, and the betllsg at start was even. 
Mr, Holden omclated as referee. The fiOlb. weight (which 
was of flat eoostrnotlon) having been pnt Into tbe scale 
and proncnnoed correct, It was placed on a small pad, or 
cushion, on Smith's heed, and shortly s^ter foar o'clock 
be started on his jonrney, tbe atmoepbere being much 
cooler than during thepreoedlog week, and, of course, 
more in hia favor. He proceeded on his way without ap. 
parently suelalnfaig any looenvenlenoe ttom the <* slea- 
aler" on hla cranium, and be traversed the first mile In 
fourteen minutes forty-two seconds, 6 to fi being then ot- 



feredonhlm. Dnrtaig the second and third miles be 
abated In bis epeed, aad, on the latter being completed, 
2 to 1 was betted on time. Smith, bowevor, kept on, 
andr when he had walked half the diitanoe (foor miles or, 
111 laps roand,) he hid ooonpled one hoar two mlontes 
twenty-one seconds, being, of coarse, then two mlontes 
twenty-one seconds behind time, ^n afterwards he 
materially Improved In pace, bat In the 17th lap be began 
to etagger a little, and appeared to soffer from a pain In 
his back. • On he went noder these diffloaltles, with the 
dead weight still evenly balanoed on Us head, and when 
he had completed the 20lh lap be had nhieteen minates 
left to finish the last mile. Oheered by his backers, be 
baversed two of the remaining three laps, but In the floal 
one, and when ho bad onlv to walk 127 yards and two 
feet, he reeled, the weight fell to the ground, and, thongh 
be attempted to replaoe.lt, Ulfltog It to hla breast, he did 
not sncoeed In doing so. and thus the match terminated, 
when Smith had foor mlnales except a few aeooods left In 
which to complete It 

Tbe way tai whloh the oontest was bronght to a oloae 
gave rise to considerable dbpntes and aproar, many main- 
taining that Smith ooi)ld have won It If he bad been eo 
disposed, and this fact, we have tolerably good authority 
for stating, he shbseqaently virtually admitted. Mr. 
Haves after a ebort time declared all beta off; and Mr. 
Holden retnmed to ^b patty bis share of the stakes, 
If Smith acted as Is repnsented, and also made the ad- 
mission alluded to, bis Conduct Is highly reprehensible. 
Mr. Hayes, the owner of the gronnd, wm bo dlsgosted at 
the affair thit he withheld the gate money.

HoLBOTD, HiuiNowAT, AUD DisiHa.— Saturday Jane 
26, wu fine, and upwards of 1,000 spectators assembled 
on tbe oroDod to wltnew the contest of one mile, between 
Pleroe Holdroyd of MIrfield, Isaao Hemingway orLeeds, 
and Joeepb Dining of Danilan. It may be remembered 
that, on the 6th of last- month, at the Salford Borough 
Gardens, in a mile handloap. Hemingway defeated Din- 
taig. In the second beat three laros, each having, on 
that ocoBslOD, 180 yards luri; and on the same afternoon 
Hemingway won the handloap, beattaig Body of Gates- 



hsad (160 yards itart) by a foot, aod Allen of Ibsches- 
ter (160) was a bad third. With respect to Holroyd, wis 
may state that one ot bis latest performances waa on Whlt> 
Friday, when he ran a dead heat with Pomf^t ofBlick- 
bam, In a race of 440 vatde for £10 a aide. Immediate* 
ly after the handicap bad been decided, arUoles for ue 
oontest noder notice were drawn np, which specified that 
Hemlngwav, Dining, and Holroyd bad agreed to mo for 
a sweepstakes of £2iS eaob, tbe winner to take the £75 
and the three shares of the gate money. Mr. Holden wis 
appointed referee, and this afternoon was selected for 
the race, fihorily after (onr o'clock, the pedestrians en- 
tered the course, and u each man looked well. It would 
be Invidious to partlcolarlse, their respecUve traloeia 
having done fall Jaatica in preparation, Holroyd tavlog; 
been under the cue of Joeepb Etohella of Fallsworth, 
Dining had been In charge of G. Darley (the obaoplon, 
sprint mnner), bi.the vlclolly of Newton, and HeBuai^ 
way had been trained at Slannlnglev, nearLeedf. bjUB 
weU known Leggy Greaves of Sheffield. The bettlDg at 
start wu even on Holroyd, 7 to 4 agst Dialog, and 2 lo X 
agst Hemlngwav. Little Ume was lost at the mtdt, and, 
on the platol being fired, Hemingway got off Inflroat, fol- 
lowed by Dining, Holreid being last. AfteraHnrywdi 
bad been traversed, Dlnlog deprived nemlogkay of the 
lesd, gR eight yatds In front, and In this oMsr the first 
lap was completed. Shortly afterwards Holroyd pssied 
Hemingway, and having tbas obtained leoond poelllon, 
be soon narrowed the gap between himself and Dining to 
foor yards, Hemingway belog at least two yards lii the 
rear on the oonolneion of the second round, uemhigway 
began to Inoreate In speed, and Holroyd more nearWBp- 
preached Dining. When 200 yards from home the tbreei , ~ 
were nearly together, and here Hemingway once more '' 
went In front, Holroyd second, and Dlolog falling Inld 
the last place. From this point the oontest lay betwtnl 
tbe two first-named, bat Hemtaigway at length won v^ . 
cleverly by four yards. Dining being beaten lift -TU 
time occupied waa 4mln Bfiseo.

THE EI1I«. 



The Fight for the Championship. 

This Important event In ihe pngUIatlo aniala of Ameri- 
ca la progreeslog satlaraotorlly; the aecood depoalt of 
1250 a side having been made ou ibe 26th Instant Five 
hondted dollAis a side are now duly slaked, and It will 
be seen, froh the oopyof the artloles whIoh we publleh 
below, that the third deposit of 0900 a side must be made 
on ihe 9th ol August, and a similar amount on eaoh side 
staked every fortnight notU ihe entire amount of 90,000 
Is depoelted In the bands of the stakeholder. ' 

Or the Importance of this great match, both as regards 
ihe amonnt of money at Issne, and tbe celebrity of the 
two principals engaged, It Is nnneceaaary to enlarge open 
at tbe present time. Bafflce It to say, that the lo^rest 
which It Is already exciting among all olaases of the oom- 
munlty, ihronghoat the entire continent of America, far 
surpasaes that felt on any previous oooaelon, not even ex- 
cepting Uie great match between Tom Eyer and Yankee. 
SnUIvan In 1819. 

As we annonnced last week, Hr. Horrlssey, immediate- 
ly ou ihe satlalaotory arrangement of the matoh with Hr. 
Heenan, left tbla olty for his present residence In Troy. 
He goes Into a()tlve training Immedlatelv, at a beautlttil 
spot, a short dlitsoce from that city, and has been fortu- 
nate enongh to aeonre ihe services of J. Hamilton Shepherd, 
or, as he le better known In the English Pried Blog, John- 
ny Hamilton, a man of great experience as'a tralaar, who 
has only recently arrived In tbla coantry. EeaaperlnteOd- 
ed the preparation of the Eagllab Obamptoo, Tom Sayera,,

the accomplished Bob Fuller In training Bill Hayes Id 
bis various encounters. HIa abilities as a trainer are Well 
known and recognized la the London Blog; and, aa a 
sparrer, he also enjovs a bigh reputation; tbe duties of i»' 
second In a fight, however, be never nndertakea, and 
In the coming Bght, we presume, be will leave that ardu- 
oua and reaponalble office to other partlua, tbongh 00 this 
point we are apeaking without authority. Tbe frlenda of 
Hr. Horrlaaey, however, may reat ataured that everything 
that akiU and experience can aooomplieh, will be uacd by 
bia trainer to bring him In tbe best possible condition 
to the post. 

. -The BenloU Boy will also commence the work of pre- 
paratloh tbhi week, a short distance from tbls olty. Tbe 
moat absurd and unfounded reports have been promulga- 
ted by ihe dally preea, in referenoe to tbia point, upon 
which they are profoundly Ignorant The backers and 
friends of Hr. Heenan, and tbey Inolode a great number 
of very lofluential and reapeotable parties,' are very san- 
guine of bis nitimate succeas. Hie un'aaanmliig tfii gen- 
tlemanly condnot, has gained blm many 'warm!'^ersonal 
frlenda, wlio are firmly supporting him under the present

Paiza FiOBT at Nbw Obliams.— Tbe New Orlaans 
daily papers of the 14th, bring accouuta of a great prize 
fight which oame off In that city between two brusers 
named Daniel Onnniogbam and John Hooly. Tka two 
men were new to, tbe ring, tbLi being their flrat eulbldon: 
yet, It Is said, they went In and came out like old bands. 
There were one hundred and forty-three rounds fought, 
balf-mloute time, which oconpled two hours and fourteen 
minutes. For about flfly rounds bo more than one blow 
was given. Gonnlngbam generally managed to get In 
first and drop. Vp to the seventieth round Hooly had 
tbe call, and appeared so much refreehed that bis eeconda 
diepensed with the usual plokiog up and seating," al- 
lowing their man to walk to his place and stand. The 
seconds of Oannlngham, however, picked their man up 
and seated him. Cunningham having rested anfflolently, 
went at his man, and the ten following rounds 
ehowed that he would probably carry the day ; though 
It wavered somewhat up to the one hundred aad 
thirtieth round, when Hooly began to wtelken, and oama 
up slowly. Tba laat five rouade be failed io touch Cun-

' Oabd.— Philadelphia, July 24, 1858.— EorroR Clippbb 
—Sir:— I noticed in your Olipfgr of July ITib, a card 
entitled Carroll and Keating, In which fads were thrown 
aelde, and tbe olrcumstanoes of the affair coDpletely 
mlarepresented. Now, sir, a few worda to the point are 
worth a volume of bumbng. I waa at the houee of Mr. T, 
Conner, June 28lh, playing ten pipe,' and bad. walked to 
tbe bar-room door after.playlng; whilst leaning ag^lnat 
the door, I .was anddenly and violently pushed .on, -the 
sidewalk. I: turned, wheu Carroll ran up to me, aekiog 
If I aald I oould whip him in ten minatea- I anawered I 
oonld toA'j) him, bnt not In ten mlnutei>;.he Btruak:roe, 
and both tumbled In tbo gutter, Carroll on itop.. ItA^n 
aald, let me up and flght fair; he agreed, and when up, I 
knocked him down;, he: got .pp and. rsn for my legs to 
tbrow me; we had another round, ware parted, and.wapi 
Into Ibe bar-ropoL I walked Into the ten-pin alley and 
etrlpped; came to him lo tbe bar-room end equared for 
him; he lunged out ai me* when I fetched bim under the 
ear', and oleuohed, throwing bim, I then played Ai'< own 
card, bitting bim In the faoe, till he covered himself .with 
hia htuida. I was' then pulled off. Aa for patty .exonaea 
of bit floger, Ac, on ihe 6th of July, that la troej'but I 
told bim and bla friends Vim, tbatli they aald flght, I 
would fight; but they all admitted my hand wae too acre 
ly. bitten to do the thing with any abow of generosity on 
OatrolVs part Hy hand la well now, and I will flght him 
for $60 or for sport, at any time or plaoe; a fair staud-np 
Bght, rough-and-lumble, or .any way be obocaea. - Tbare 
are better men than either of 'ua that have'foughtfor S60i 
aod It would be an eaay thing for him, or any other man 
who baa plenty of money, to shake $200 or more under' 
my noB«,' and bluff nie for wont of f nnda.

Tbey retted to iter, and, In a abort time, aha waa got ua. 
der-#ay, run In and orcDgbt to an anchor under the tame 
lee where the atranger'a boat bad luffed up the day before, 
and within mueket ahot of the hula of the flahermen. 

The latter were much alarmed, but they had nothing to 
berobbedcfeioeptafewthoaaandponnda of dried flih 
and their neta and oanoea, ao they did not fly, bat with 
many prayera to their patron aalnlf , awaited the reeult of 
whatever might come. 

In a Utllo while an armed boat landed from ihe venel,

If paaaloa bad not evidently made lla throne within hb

the ardor ofa Ualay, wlahtng for bloody vengeance fot 
aome wrong or fancied Irjurv. Hla age waa probably not 
more than tbUty— hla light hair and complexion tpoke of 
Anglo-Saxon blood; With him waa a lean, tallow-fdoed 
ladTviddal, dreiaed In black, evidently ten or llfteen yeata 
older, whoie amall, an^e-llke eyer, tbin llpi, narrow fore- 
head, and oloae-ahaved face made him look, what he lurdy 
waa, a villain; fnhdblf a kind of Judaa or Arnold, -ready 
to bt one for any one. It money waa In quutlon. 

The fliat comer. In an loperloua tone, demanded of the 
flahermen why tb.ey did not anawer hla algnal for a pilot. 
He waa replied to by the eldeit of the parly, a gray,

«onslitedor Tbe'Uomentoua Qoestlon," "CbSTlos II,". and ''Toe 
i)omb Belle." A ohoico bill lor bol wealber— llgbl and epioey. 

The Uomentoua Qncillon" waa a lallnre on tbe part or tbe male 
playera. Ii Is wlib profonnd regret we make Ibe statement, and 
only wieh Ibat wo could speak ol Ihe enlerUlnment la a more 
Ikvorsble manner. Our readers want tbe train, and notbiog but 
Ihe troth : oonerquenily, we must be candid and Irutbtul In ocr 
lemarka. At tbe oloao ot tbe Brat piece, Mr. Belmont otme before

HAMLET m THREE ACTS. 

Friend Qdxen : la the flippant Introdaotlon to Hamlet 
Id three acta, I bri^ymli all that was neoeuary (preeum- 
iDg, of ooaraa, that e^ery reader wks Bafflclentlj Intelli- 
gent to comprehend a iketohy eiplanaiton, and oompe- 
tent to auppl; the detalla of each ekeleton saggeetlon), and 
though I oan^y no mors now. It leema requlalte that I 
Bhomd urge the fact of the decided difference between 
oondenelng a play for atage repreientallon, and Impudent- 
ly mutUaung a readable poem. 

In all aget, eminent dramdtlata have gladlr adopted the 
ooneoUona and alterationa of managera and actors of In- 
ferior ablUtlea. 

Shioe Bhahetpeare'a time, none of hla playa have been 
played or even pnbllahed aa he wroto them, Foi tbe 
Btage, oortallment and Interpolation have always been 
deemed neoesssry. It la a fact, almott beyond iitpule, that 
no aotor ever played Hamlet aa Shakespeare wrote it. 
Henoe, it is merely a qaeatlon of taste and policy as to 
which ccndensatlon or which edition will best please the 
public, and make the beat acting play (or the present day. 
This la the only real point at hsae— and it will be long 
'before this point la enbmttted to a public teat, for the sim- 
ple reason that the theatrical la the moat oonsarratlTe ol 
all the profeaslone. Reforma are made in the legal pro- 
featlon, the eolenoe of medicine advanoes, clergymen are 
bsooming more enlightened and libera), InTentlon la ripe, 
art Is maturing, aud progreaa le everywhere; save In the 
theatre. The reason la oDviona, the remedy plain. 
' In ooDdenaing a play tor the stage, the queatlons of sa- 
crilege and preaumptlon are no( to be ooosldered. No 
well Informed man, no scholar of good critical Judgment, 
will raise thoae queatlons. 

I have very good rraaou to believe (from information 
derived from sources familiar to every school boy) and I 
tlo believe that the MSS. of Bhskespeare's plays were all 
of them bnraed In the great Are In London in 1613, when 
the Qlobe theatre was destroyed: ao that what are now 
called Shakeapeare's playa oootlst of about one line of 
Shakespeare to fifty of some theatrical copyist or short 
hand writer. , , , 

Qreat thoughts, great maxims, may last forever, but 

Seat plays seldom retain posaeailon of tbe stage longer 
an one generation. The language ohangea; manners, 
lastei, oualoms, all change— the human race, coUeotivelv 
I epeaklnKi Is far more advanced than in Shakespeare's 
lime, what waa then ooneldered a good play, would 



ised under the name ot tbe H. A. Perry. We believe It to now known 
as Ibe UclropollUn." 41low me to live you a few parllculars aboot 
Mat club. Tboy were organized under Ibe name of H. A. Perry, but 
Ibe Kmpire club Joined wlib tbem under Ibe conditlooa tbal tbe name 
waa to be obanged. Borne ot the Empire menbe'ra paid In ibeir dues, 
sad all oonildered Ibemselvea members of Ibe B. A. Perry. Next

appointed, and It wu moved and carried that tbe olub ebould be 
known u tbe Uetropolllan. Next meetlni nigbl Hr, Bagley attended, 
and Informed ns Ibat the slab wu atlll tbe li. A. Perry, and that no 
member of tbe Empire wu a member of tbe H. A. Perry. Upon 
wbloh t velve of Ike Empire witbdrew, anil bnvs alnca re-orguttid

now be tbonght very tedioua. Then booke and newapa- 
pers were not so abnodsnt as they are now. Then tb« 
theatre was the most available median fordlffusing know- 
ledge. Then people were willing to alt five or elx hours 
to see a play. They made it a serious matter— they went 
to gain knowledge as well as amusement— they took their 
note books with them to note down all tbe good things in 
the plays, for playa then were nearly what newspapers, 
bonks, secmooa, and lectures are now. Hence, through all 
of Shakespeare's playa. Instances abound wbeie he has ap- 
parently forgotten the plot eiltogetber for the sake of In- 
trodudcg the brilliant thonghtt which alonebavs render- 
ed him famous. Now, every great thibg ever attered by 
Shakespeare can be read dailv In the Jouioals, the 
novels, the magaElaea, that flood our parlors. To write 
a good play nowadays, it ia deemed ueceesaty to have but 
one plot, and that straightforward, simple and interesting; 
conveylog some useful lesion, Ic is sillowable for an au- 
thor to interweave with bis plot the great thonghts and 
maxims that suggest themeelvea, provided he does not 
maUrially digress bom tba main snbjeot to introdace them. 
There are plots enough In one of Bhakespeare'a plays to 
make five good acting plays of the present day. Scarce- 
ly any of us but has seen a country store where were sold 
Hardware, Drnga, Sty Goods, Orooetles and Lumber, 
But when progress, improvement, and enterprise march 
into the region qf that country store. It Immediately de- 
velopes into five ooantry stores, and the different branch- 
es of trade are saparated, yet the oroprletor Is not aocua- 
ed of sacrilege. Kay not the plays of Shakespeare be 
likened to these old stores I The unprononooeable words 
and oorksorew senteoces may Im oalled Hardware, the 
doubtinl, and tbe vulgar sentence! may be oalled Drugs, 
tbe sermons and easays, the Dry Goods, the plots the 
Lumber, and thoae nourishing maxlDoa and ideas so ne- 
ceisary to iotelleolual life may bs oalled the Groceries. 
All good, all benefloial In their way. For the olosat, vis: 
for reading, I would deoldedly prefer a simple and pure 
copy ol Sbakeipaara (If It were possible to prooure snob) 
without emeBdatlSns or alterations. For than I oould 
appreciate (without aid) whatever was plain or under- 
standable, and^I oould let pass wltboot any great eioite- 
ment or mental worry all those passages that looked mys- 
terions or too severely olaaslcal to be comprehended by 
any ordinary man. 

Being latlafled that there la no luoh thing as a copy of 
Shakespeare pure, I am willing to aooept tba edition that 



oomes tbe nearest to it, and to give Sliakeipeara oredit 
for whatever seems good; and toatlribnte to InterpoU' 
tors whatever appears ridiculous. And wblle I take tbe 
liberty (at the risk ct being called egotistical) to assert 
that no man worships genius more than I do, that no man 
has a greater love of «be beautUul, that no man detests 
meddlers more than I do, yet I feel it to be the height of 
lully and absurdity to grow entbualaatlc over typogra- 
phical errora and blnndera which Shakeipeare never com 
mltted, but wbloh are attributed to bin, and hence view 
ed with great reverence by many of our old fogy actors. 
I cannot restrain from repeating in this oonnexionthe 
very old anecdote of the serenaders who stopped before a 
large, fine, old msniioo, and plaved many sweet tunes, 
alter whlob they were Informed by tbe ulght watchman 
that <■ tuAoiy livtd there nov." This is ao applicable to our 
old gentlemen, who, if Shakespeare had written this line 

TraUi U ffllgbly and wUl prerall," 
wonld have reen nothlpg worth eapecial notice; bat If the 
blunderbg copyist had caused the lins to be printed thus 

Trath li nanghty and wUl rstall;'' 

they would have Ineu exceedingly profound in their 
emeodatloos; they would have proved logically what the 
immortal bard meant by " naughty" and " retail;" they 
would have publlahed chapters to show that a line whlcn 
in l>self is rrdlcttlona was beautlfol, sublime, &c. 

The greater a man's love is lor the enbllme, the keener 
is bis perception of the ridlonlcus, wblch provei that 
many of these Sbakespertan soholara. bookworms, antl- 
quatiaos, and old logle^ have a very United faonlty for 
kppreciatlDg the beautiful. Inasmuch aa they are ever 
ecstatic, raptnronr, over the simply rldlonlous, and their 
lives are passed in poring over musty books and parch- 
ments, lor the mere purpoae, perhapa, of self aggrandise- 
ment, or the solving of lome problem of no aooount to hu- 
manity. They neglect ths beauUfbl of to-day ^they see 
nothing In the glorious enterprises that are dally pro- 
Jecttd, to enliat their attention; they look not to tbe fu- 
ture, but to the paat, and Bod their blazon In their aaoeatry. 

I do not wlah to ocpnpy too much of )onr space, there- 
fore I cannot say all that might be said In aosirer to 
those who oondema the new version; but who condemn it 
without olTdriog om good ruun^ If any mab, I oars not 
who, will show me one ^ood reaaon wby my vtrsloi ahoold 
not be played, I will bum every copy that I can And, for. 
when I am wrong, I am always anxloui lo be righted, I

to honor Shakeapeare, and to perpetuate hu name In tkt

There are trifling errora in tbe three act plece,-whIob 
any competent stage manager will discover and oorreot 
at rehearsal I have " out out" many flue things wbl^ " 
no one can appreciate mors than I do, bat thsv are fbr-

der the play less Interesting (I have left enough to keep 
busy the brains of any theatre-goer who seeks Instni/O-

those portlona, alone in hia study. The stcdent will find 
In Hamlet, lectures, critiques, Bermons, essays, and ds- 
bates, to ponder over in his closet, bat the tbsatre-gotr

I do not wish ever to criticise Shakespeare— I tmsttfaat 
I aball never insult his memory or detract from bis gsnlns.

soratcj). always bnoked down. He proposed to run 700 
vardi for I70O, bnt, when I offered to. pat op 8800 as a 
forfeit, ha treated and backed out In a Utile while be 



Mr.Bkllet^Uqaored the crowd again, kbd tgalft backed 
out He would than give me till October to find a botae 
to mn him a quarter of a mile for 81,000, anywhere In 
tbe State, to put up $200 In addlUcn to the f 100 already 
down, which we had run for. This I accepted, when he 
again backed out In tiew of this offer ofMr. Bkllei, as 
well u all the olroumilanoes, do you not think I was 
fairly entitled to tbe money 1 Pleaae answer In your nezt 

Falling thus to make anything by bis gu, he wanted 
the itapehotder to give him the money, offering to in- 
demnify him against any losai After disputing aoma 
time, tne itakeholder gave to this " honest and gentle- 
manly sportsman" his own money back, as be was fearful 
of getting Into dUBoulty blniaeU. 

This " old and experienced hand on the turf," no sooner 
had his claws on the money, than be departed, Ulobed up 
the "Bklles Sorrel," which he had traded to Mr. Dontn. 
and only bonowed for the race, and left SabnylkUl 
County, If not a richer, at least a wiser man. 

Now, sir, if Mr. Bklles Is entitled to tht character of an 
honest sportsman, would he have come to make a match 
with his borsa disguised In the manner he was, or wlU an 
"old and experienced band on the tnil" get tight by 
simply sitting In a bar room a short time. 

Now, as to " Argus' " challenge, contained In the lut 
paragraph of bis commnnlcaUon, I have to say to blm, If 
he wants to make a match for " BkllesP Sorrell," I will 
run htm Crom a half a mile to a mile beats, same ground, 
same weights aa before, for^from 8200 to $600 a ^e, and 
as the Sorrel was held In before, this wUl give them a 
chance to let blm out ^ 

If "Argos," or anv of the backers of BUlea' Sorrel, 
want to make a maton of $100 a side forfblt, they oan do 
so either through the CurpiB, or by .letter to me at 
BUverlOreek, Schuylkill County. It the Sorrel is the 
horse he is said to be, he certainly ought to be able to 
beat a colt that works every day In a porter wagon, that 
does not pretend to the character of a running boise.

CHAPTER I. 

Alono the whole southern and weatien ooaat of Florida, 
from the ancient Fort of Saint Marks to Key West, there 
were no aettlementa, and only a few Bpaolsh fltblng atv 
tlona at Tampa Bay, Manltee, Boca Grande, and Sanabel, 
at.the dot* when we draw the curtain of the drama which 
we eflto to the reader, nearly forty years ago. 

A gale waa Uowlog, a terrtio gale, from tne Bouth-eaat, 
rolling up tbe wavea from the £ay of Mexico— aa that 
portion Isolde of the Golf baa been named— and sending 
them on the sandy ahore, where they broke In lofty walla 
of foam. Bo Heroely did the tempeet rage that the Span- 
ish flshermen could not pome their avocation I They 
were obliged to lay tbelr nets out upon the Inner branch 
of the point of Boca Grande, where their ranobe waa es- 
tablished, and seek refuge inthelow,pBlmstto-tbatohed 
hula buUt for tbelr thelter, which, though located in a 
ravine, where the wind had not fall play upon them, 
seemed bardiv strong enough to withstand the gale. 

Here, smcklog their cigarettoi, they, huddled, soma 
ourslng and grumbling at tbe weather; others uttering a 
prMer, now and then, to San Antonla— oil discontented 
and out of aorta. Suddenly, however, the booming of 
caononry— and that close at band— startled all of them 
to their feet, and with one idea thev rufhed slmultanecua- 
ly ootrto see what conld be off that coaat in euoh a storm, 
and why the oannon were fired. Oo reaching the elevat- 
ed point that bounds to the south the narrow entrance 
to ue bay, which extends fair back Into the swamps and 
^vilda of the country, they saw a large schooner, foretop- 
sail rig, evidently armed heavily and with a fall crew, 
■landing in toward the coast, under a fearful press of 
oanvae. And only about a mile neater, but so close to the 
ahore that tbe persons of those cn boara of her could be 
plainly seen, was a small but beautifd lchoone^boat— 
no more than five or six . tons burthen, and but partially 
decked over, yet she rode the aea like a daok, and seem- 
ed to cut tbe water as a bird cleaves tbe air. Upon her 
deck were three persons— a man who stood at tbe helm, 
a lovely female, who dung to tbe weather shroud a few 
feet before him, and by the hand she held a little girl, 
whoce gloan rlogletsflutiered out Uke penons on tbe gala. 

Against this boat and Ita helplesa crew, to tbe wonder 
of tbe Spaniards, the cannonnade of tbe large, black-sid- 
ed echocotr was directed. To tbelr surprise, the more, 
because the lohooner showed no flag, and did not seem, 
by her looks, to be either a Guarda Costa er a man-of-war. 

"Eiwta Firala—li la a pirate"— they muttered, and, 
oroealog themselvesj they prajed earnestly for the escape 
of " ISI gtUta Aica" — the Uttle aohooner— and some of toe 
more earaeet of them ran down to the point, and by beck- 
onlngsand signals, endeavored todwect thefigltlves 
how to run Into the narrow channel, whisb, having once 
entered, would place them In safety for a time. The man 
at tbe helm saw tbem, seemed to understand, and, keep- 
log his craft ateady for the abore, eoon peiedved now to 
Bteer to make the entrance. Meantime the ebot from tbe 
■uraubg vissel were ploughing up tbe water all around 
mm. TRice bad bta email sails been perforated, time af- 
ter time had the spray fVom the hlaelng ahot dashed over 
him, yet no (par was touched— nor he, or the woman, or 
child nurt, and they now were very dose to tbe shore; 

Though tbey trembled for it, yet tbe Bpaalarda hoped 
for that bold steenman's safety, for he seemed to bear a 
charmed lU^Death came so near and yet refh^Ined. 

He was now upon the outer range of breakers which 
broke acroisthe barr-nobly bis lovely boat rose open 
them— reelbg and staggering liefore the gale, in she sped 
through the yeast of foam: a moment more and she was 
In smooth water. A glad horrah rose from the lips of 
the fldiermen, but lis eohoea were huahed in the fearful 
burst of the schooner's whole broadside, as she rounded 
to, scarce, a half mtla off, and threw a shower of grape 
and cannlster at the hapless fogtllves. With a shudder, 
they tuned to see its effects. They groaned and beat 
their breasts as tbey saw the lovely woman, who bad held 
the child by the hand, fal) to the deck, and saw tbe man, 
who, letting go the beiita, permitted bis boat to luff op 
nnder the lee of tbe head-land, spring forward and raise 
her in his armii, while great torreilts of blood gathed out 
from her breast and ran in crimson ourrenta over ber 
white dresa. 

They manned aeveral of their fishing oanoes and hur- 
ried Aff, in spite oi the driving gale, to offer their asats- 
tance. They found the man, a young and noble-icoking 
person, kneeling upon the deck and trying to ataunohthe 
wound, bnt all u vain, while the terrified child olnog to 
the corse and moaned--" Mamma, mamoa, speak to Ooal" 
, It waa a pltlfd soena. Thev made tbeurrade bnt well- 
meant offers of aid, and then, for the first time, he eeemed 
to be aware that they were alongdde of bis boat, for, 
with the fierceness of a maniac, he half raised her form 
tnm the deck, and while hia eyes glared and hla long hair 
blew ontstralght on the gale, he uouted— 
Off I off I She is mordered I she Is mordsred I" 

Then he laid the body down, Irlnuqed his tattered aallr, 
then sprung to the helm, and, before another minute had 
passed his boat waa flying like a guH before tho storm, 
far up the bay amid the thouaanda of. islands which lay 
between the sea coait and the " Big Cypress." 

A wild mystery to tbem was in all this. Never bad 
they aeen a more beautlfal l^y. She waa tall, ravan- 
halred, lovely In feature, and perfect in form. And cost- 
ly Jewels glittered on her fingers, braoeleta of gold dasp- 
ed ber wiuta, and also were on her fafr round arms above 
the elboW& By this they deemed her Bpanlah. 

As soon as tne boat had InSisa in out of sight of the 
schooner, the latter commenced makbg signals for a 
pilot, having shortened safl«ndhove to aanear the shore 
as she dared. But, had it been pottlble fo^ themti^gc 
out to her, there was not one of thoaa honest fishermen 
who would have helped to do farther wrong to the 
wietehtd fagltlvei whoever he might be, by aldlos to bring 
the Bcbooner In that she might renew the pursuit 

Gnu alter gun did the tohooner fire, (ind then, with men 
at her mast head, she stood dose In as If to reocnnolter 
tho bar, to aee If it were paaaable; and though it was, and 
for a vessel of larger else than her, lor the sea broke In 
four fathoms water npon It, and the men on shore could 
by slogns have easily guided her across, tbey would not 
do it The sight which they had witnessed had sickened 
their haarta, and mora than one nrayer was uttered that 
night, that the pirate, for snob they deemed her, would 
alnk berbre tht morning dawned again. 

But, during the night, the temptBtdaokeotd, and when 



momlBgeamethewlndhtdalmostdledaway. Thenthei 
sai^ the low blaiik hull if the sehoontr rising and fdllo 
with the swell of the aea, as she lay at anchor aboat 
mlltf'frctB there— her tall spare, with the canvas clc« 
fotled, ataoding In bold outline between them and rologj 
leas sky. As eoon aa It was fatrlv light, a boat was Io« 
ered Otom the veaael, manned with an armed orew. The 
puUad in npon and over the bar, taking lonndlogsaii 
Dcarloga as they went, and aeon found that their aohoont 
could,, without dllflonlty, make the anchorage iodde 
Tb«y retafned to Jier. and. In a short time, she waa got on 
deM^ay, run in and nronght to an anohor under the sam 
lee where the atranger'a boat had luffed up the day before 
and Within musket ahot of the huts of the fiahermea 

The latter were much alarmed, but tbey bad nothing t< 
be robbed ofexcept a few thoaiand pounds oi dried 0tl 
and their nets and oanoes, so they did not fiy, bat wlu 
many prayers to their patron aalntr, awaited the result 0 
whatever might oome. 

In a little while an armed boat landed from the veasel 
and one who aeemed to be her commander spraog to thi 
shore. He was riohly dressed, etrcagly framed, thorough 
Ir armed, and his feitnrea would not have been nnoomel 
ll passion had not evidently made its throne wllhln h 
heart His look was that of one seeking for a vlcUm with 
the ardor of a Malay, wishing for bloody vengeance fot 
some wrong or fanoied irj ary. His age was probably not 
more than thirty— bis ligbt hair and complexion spoke of 
Anglo-Saxon blood.' With blm waa a lean, sallow-faced 
lodrndual, dresaed In blaok, evidently ten or fifteen yean 
older, whoie email, snake-like eye»,thlnllpa, narrow fore, 
head, and oloee ebaved face made him look, what he rarely 
was, a villain; fniail^ a kind of Judas or Arnold, -read; 
to b» one for any one. It money was In qaesUon. 1 

The first comer, In an imperious tone, demanded of tbe I 
flshermen why they did not anawer his elgnal for a pUoL 
He was replied to by the eldest of the party, a gray- 
haired Mlnoroan, one Pablo Conovas, whd, among hlacom- 
padons, had the reputation of fearing neither man nor 
the devlL 

"We didn't understand your elgod," said he, boldly; 
" and, if we had, we bad no boat wbloh could live In the 
turf on the bar yeaterday 1" 

" Tet yon could algoalizs tbe villain who cros^d by 
your dircctlona, when we were nm of his oaptare I" 

" That waa not half so bad as you murdering hla poor 
wife I" said tbe old Bpanlard, bitterly. 

" His wife T Did Aa say aha was bis wife, my dear fellow t" 
said the hidlvldaal la black, qdckly oatohlog at the ex- 
pression. 

" Ask the ioBolent dog no qaeatlona, Counsellor; Jknou 
that she waa married to blm; that'a aiough I" said the other. 
Impatiently. 

" Then, Captain Feblger, we mul have the child, or all 
will fall through, odeaa we can prove Ite death. My dear 
fellbw, the child was unharmed, waa It not t" 

" When I know whether I'm tdklog to the devil or not, 
I'll answer I" said old Pablo, gruffly. 
- "Come— I UluCtat/" add he who bad been addresaed 
aa Captain Feblger, smiling grimly on Pdblo. " Ue Is a 
lauytr, and they're servante to tbe devil, as a general 
thing, bnt I can ansjver the quesUon as well as he. Tlit 
woman only was bnrt I saw tbat through my spy-gtasa P 

" If your heart had been u good as your eyea, ue, too, 
would have been spared I" said Pablo. 

" Tou think so, eht Well, now, I have a better heart 
than yon think lor, or I ebould out off both your ears for 
yonr insolence; bat I like your spirit— It has a spice of 
the devil lo it, like my own. If you'll come aboaxd the 
schooner— the" JWijonM"Toall her— I'll give you as 
good a glass of grog as ever met thirsty llpg 1" 
. ".Seep your grog to drown the recollection of bid 
deeds In i'' ° 

" Well, well, the offer wai kindly meant, take Itasjoa 
wUL Do you know anything about the bay up which tbe 
fellow went?" 

"^'olAuv/"BBld Pablo. 

" How far does It extend before the main Is reached I" 
"I don't ibuw/" replied the Spadard. 
'■Your men, beret" 

" Know no more than I do I" contbued Pablo. 

" What the devil do yea know!" cried Feblger, begin- 
ning to get angry and show his natural ferocity again. 

" JfolMig, wnea It sdts us; a good ded, when we want 
tol" 

The strange captdn's band was on tbe bllt ofbla aword, 
when the gentleman hi black urged him to pursue the 
fugitive and child, who were probably, fast getting be- 
yond porsdt, nrgbg, for soma reason, tbat the person of 
the latter must, at all events, be secured, even if tbe death 
of tbe other was not accomplished. . Curbing his anger as 
beat he oodd, the captain of the schooner returned to his 
boat and went on board of Us vessel. In a short time, 
fonr boats, fall. manned and armed, put off from the 
schooner, rowing In the direction which the alranger had 
taken on the day before. 

. ".J*"' ijoly aalnta keep him and the child from their 
devlUsh cintehes," mattered Pablo, as he saw them go oZ 
•< They mean U no good if they do find it, and th«y aeeo 
bent pa A<a life 1 Pdllke to know why. One thbg Is 
certain. If ever I can aid blm any, I will I" 

The old mau now set bis men to work, for he waa the 
Fadront or master d the fliabing ranohe, thengh the pro- 
prietors lived In Havana, where market wasfoundfor the 
fish when oured.

HAHLEr IN THREE ACTS. 

TvasB Queen : Id the flippant lotrodaollon to HamUt 
la three aota, I briefy tald all that was neoaaeary (preeum- 
log, of course, that every reader was Bufflclentlj Intelli- 
gent to comprehend a shetoby explanation, and compe- 
tent to supply the details of each skeleton aaggestlon), and 
though I oaoMy no niors nov, it seems requisite tbat I 
ehoofd urge the fact of the df olded difference between 
condensing a play for stage representation, and Impudent- 
ly matllaUng a readable poem. 

In all ages, eminent dramatists have gladlr adopt«d (he 
correoUons and alterations of managers and actors of In- 
ferior abilities. 

Slice Shakespeare's time, none of hls.playa have been 
played or even pabllshed as he wrote them. Foi tbe 
stage, curtailment and Interpolation have always been 
deemed necessary. It la a fsot, almost ieyondiuputt, that 
no actor ever played Hamlet as Shakespeare wrote It. 
Hence, It Is merely a qaestlon of taste and polloy as to 
which condODoatlon or which edition will best please the 
pabllo, and make tbe best acting play for the present day. 
This Is the only real point at Usae— and It will be long 
before this point la submitted to a pnbllc test, for the sim- 
ple reason that the theatrical Is the moat conservative of 
all the professions. Reforms are made in the legal pro- 
feslon, the solenoe ofinedlolne advances, clergymen are 
becoming more enlightened and liberal, Invention la ripe, 
art Is matorlng, anaproness Is everywhere; save in the 
theatre. The reason la obvious, tbe remedy plain. 
' In condensing a play tor the stage, the questions of sa- 
crilege and presnmptfon are no( to be oonsldered. No 
welllnformea man, no scholar of good critlcaljadgment, 
wUl raise those qaeatlou. 

I have vei7 good rrason to believe (from Information 
derived from sonroee familiar to every sohool boy) and I 
io believe that the USS. of Bhtkespeare's plays were all 
of them horned In the great fire In London In 1618, when 
the Qlobe theatre was destroyed: so that what are now 
called Shakespeare's playa oonalst of about one line of 
Bhaketpeare to dfly of eome theatrical copyist or short 
hand writer. , . . 

Great thoughts, great maxims, may lest forever, bat 
Meat plays seldom retain possession of the stage longer 
Uian one generation. The language changes; manners, 
tutos, customs, all ohange— tbe human race, coUeotlvelv 

BpiAyiuDB, Is far more advanced than In Shakespeare's 

time, what was then considered a good play, wonld

now be thonght very tedlons. Then hooks and newspa- 
pers were not so abandant as they are now. Then the 
theatre was tbe mostavallable medinn fordlffoslng know- 
ledge. Then people were wllllog to sit Sve or sU hoars 
to see a play. Tbey made It a serlons matter— they went 
to gali^ knowledge as well aa amosement— they took their 
note boohs with the'm to noto down all tbe good thbgs in 
.the plays, for plays then were nearly what newspapers, 
bonks, eermoos, and lecturesare now. Hence, tbrongh all 
ol Sbakeapeare's plays, instances abound where he has ap- 
parently forgotton the plot altogether for the sake of In- 
trodndog the brilliant thonghta which alone have render- 
ed blm famooB. Now, every great thibg ever altered by 
Shakespeare oan be read dallv In the Jonrnals, the 
novels, the magazines, tbat flood oor parlors. To write 
a good play nowadays. It Is deemed ueoessary to have bat 
on« plot, and that straightforward, simple and Interesting; 
conveying some nseful lesson. le Is allomtble for an au- 
thor to interleave with bis plot the great thonghte and 
maxims that aoggest themselves, provided he does not 
mattriaUy digress from the main enbject to introdnce them. 
There are pTete enough In one of Shakespsare'a plays to 
make five good aoting plays of the present day. Soaroe- 
ly any of ob bnt has seen a country elore where were sold 
Hardivare, Drogs, Diy Goods, Grcoerles and Lnmber. 
Bat when progress. Improvement, and enterprlEe march 
Into the region of that country store, it Immediately de- 
velopes Into Ave coontry etores, and the different branch- 
es of trade are ssparated, yet the proprietor Is not aeons- 
ed of sacrllsge. May not the plays of Shakespeare be 
likened to these old stores t Th; nnprononoceable words 
and corkscrew sentences may be called Hardware, the 
doQblfnl,.and the vnlgar sdnunoes may be oalled Drags, 
tbe sermons and essays, the Dry Goods, the ploU the 
Lumber, and those noarlshing maxims and Ideu so ne- 
cessary to loteUecinal life may be oalled the Orooerlea 
▲U good, all beneflolal In their way. For the oloset, vie: 
lor reading, I wonld decidedly prefer a simple aod pure 
copy ol Bbakespaare (If it were possible to proonre snob) 
wllboat emendatlSos or alterations. For than I oould 
appreciate (wlibont aid) whatever was plain or under- 
standable, aod I oonld let pass withont any nreat exoItC' 
ment or mental worry all those passsgsB thatlooked mys- 
terious or too severely claisloal to be oomprebended by 
any ordinary msn. 

Being satlsflad that there Is no snoh thing aa a oopy of 
Shakespeare pore, I am wIlllDg to accept the edition that 



comes tbe nearest to It, and to give Shakespeare credit 
for whatever seems good: and to alttlbate to interpola- 
tors whatever appeare rldionlooa. And while I take tbe 
liberty (at the risk of being oalled egotistical) to assert 
tbat no man worships genlos more thskO I do, that no man 
has a greater love of «he beantUui, that no man deteste 
meddlers more than I do, yet I leel it to be tbe height of 
lolly and absordltv to grow entbuslaatlo over typogra- 
phical errors and blunders which Shakespeare never com- 
muted, but whioh are attrlboted to him, and henoe view- 
ed with great reverence by many of our old iogy actors. 
I caimot restrain from lepeatbg in this oonneilon the 
very old anecdoto of the serenaders who stoppsd before a 
large, fine, old mansloo, and played many sveet tunes, 
alter which they were ioforffled by tbe uight watobman 
that " no&oi^ lived Ihoe now." This fs so applicable to our 
old gentlemen, who, if Shakespeare had written this line 

II TruUi Is mighty ud wUl prevail," 
wonld have seen ncthlpg worth especial notice; bnt If the 
blundering copyist had otused the line to be pnnted thus 
Troth Is aaaghly aad wUl retail;'' 

they would have been exceedingly profonnd In their 
emendations; they woald have proved logically what the 
Immortal btrd meant by <* naughty" and " retail;" they 
wonld have jpabltshed chapters to show that a line wblcn 
In I'self Is ridiculous was beaatlful, aubllme, &c. 

The greater a inan's lore Is for the labllme, the keenec 
Is big perception of the ridlcnious, which proves that 
many of these Shakespeilan scholars, bookworaa, anti- 
quarians, aod old fogies, havs a very limited faculty for 
appreciating the beantlfnl, loasmnob sa they are ever 
ecstatlo, raptnrona, over the simply rldlonlons, and Uielr 
lives are pssied In poring over musty books and parch' 
menu, for the mere purpose, perhaps, of aeU aggrandise- 
ment, or the solving of aone problem of no aeconnt to hu- 
manity. Tbey neglect the beantUbl of today A-they eee 
nothing In the glorious enterprises that are dally pro- 
jected, to enlist their. atteDtloo; tbey look lul to the/u- 
liirs, but to the past, and find thsir blazon In their ancestfy. 

I do not wish to o«npy too moch of yonr spaoe, there- 
fore I cannot say all that might be aald In asawerto 
those who condemn the new version; but who condemn tt 
wlibont otfdnng oru gcod ruun^ If any aab, I care not 
who, will show me one good reason why my weraioa should 
not be played, I will born every copy that I can tni.Mi 
when I em wrong, I am always anxious to be rlghteo, I 



offered the condensation oi HamleL not thinking it to be 
a woodrons nndsrtakhig, or st all deserrlog of owUdt^ 
comment, bat merely as a step in the march of progrsaL' 
and ons sdspted to the wants of the age we Urie u. I,^ 
fancied (and still fancy) that the best way. for sn Bototi j 
to honor Sbakeepeare, and to perpetaato hu oasM In tit* 
theatre, wonld be so to arrange and modify his plays that : 
thev might always be attraoUre and InstniotiTe « plan. 

There are trifling errors in the three aot place, which ''■ 
any competent stoge manager will discover and oorreot 
at rehearsal I have " cnt oat" many llae things whlob ' 
no one oan appreciate more than I do, bat therarefw- 
eign to the main plot, and their absence wonla not ren- ' 
der the pUy less Interesting (I have left enough to keep 
buay the brains of any theatre-goer who Beeks butniy 
tlon), andtbe stadsntof Bhakespeaire can better relub 
those portions, alone in hia atndy. The stcdent will find 
In Hamlet, leotores, erltlqaes, sermons, essavs, and d^ ■■ 
bales, to ponder over In his closet, bat the tneatie-goar 
looks for aoilon— he seeks tbe play, the drama. 

I do not wish ever to criticise Shakespeare— I tmsi tbat 
I shall never Insult bis memory or detraotfrombls gsnlu ' 
He left OS bis plays (or our benefit, he gave as (for our ^

reward ot good prlcea to the winner thereof: and oertain 
other complimentary and pecuniary consfderatlons to 
second andrthlrd Lest men, "doable playen," and 
" standards." The sports wtre extended over a perlsd 
o( five days, (although, through unavoidable ouQum- 
etances, not consecutive ones,) and terminated on Mon- 
day last Never wu a gatherlog of athlels more Inter- 
esting In all Its bearings ; and with fine weather and a 
constant repetition of highly respectable oompany, the 
sports ptswd off with an alat which refleots nuob crtdlt 
on the worthy host. It is not our Intention, for want of 
space, to enter Into full ptrtloalarB''of eaoh display of 
skill and science ; and we ^hall confine onrselves to a 
brief recapltalation of the entire proceedloga.

on Good Friday,) now gialned the fitet pnae of £10, 
Branskiil got £6 for second, and Smith £2 for third. 

The second and third days were occupied In making

menced. Tuoker first threw Oammlng, alter an hour's 
play; Blokle threw Beecombe; T. Bartley conquered 
W. Buokland, and Thompeon Dyer, by the orass-battock. 
In forty-three minutes. Slade threw Bond In an hour 
and a quarter, the former being the favorite and weighing 
list. BIckle, (who won thirteen prizes lut year,) next 
oame to face Beaoombe. The former exhibited most 
play, while strength seemed more the demonstrative 
principle of the latter. Both are noted men ; eventaally 
BloUe.galned the falL after a long bout of one hoor'and 
forty-five mioates. S. Bucknell then overcame Morgan 
two tiUa by the hip ; and Dyer sncnmbed to Thompson. 
Bartley, (who won the Ohamplon's Belt at the Breoknook 
Arms, June 4, 1849,) next threw Thompson (Grenadier 
Guards) by the heel ; Tucker wu also vanqolshed by

The sporu termbiated on Monday under the moat fiivor- 
able auspices, and the most dextrous and noted Oumbrlan 
Weetmoreluid, Ocmlth, and Devon athletee have lllnstra 
ted the different oppoaltlon styles of their req>eotlve 
counties, and the same bebg so well underatocd by our 
eportlng readers, we shall abstain from allndlng to them. 
The premier light weight priae for men under lOst In the 
Oumberland and Westmoreland mode of standing or fall- 
ing wu awarded to J. Thompson, of the Grenadier OnardSt 
Sanders, of Penrith, taking the second, and A. Hoore the 
third. The first heavy weight prize (ISat) fell to Heth- 
erbgton, the present cnamplon player, the second to Brun- 
ekll^ and the third to T. Barker. Play oonmsnced at 
three o'clock to decide prizes for the Oornwall and De- 
ronddre wrestlers, the sports being then resumed with 
much spirit of emulation. Some of the moat scientific 
points of the putlme were exhibited, at wbloh the specta- 
tors testified frequent approbation. Those remaining In 
were T. Bartley, G. BlcUe, J. Slade, T. Bnoknell, and 
Tucker. Greater interest than ever wu evinced In these 
final issues, before a highly respectable company. Blade 
and Bucknell played for nearly two hours and a haU; 
when they tossed for " the back," which was won by the 
former. Blokle threw Taoker " two hips and a shoulder," 
according to the decision of the three offlciala. Blade and 
Bartley next came together, Blokle being odd man, 
Bartley wu the ikvorlte at 2 to 1, u Slade had snob e 
long bout just previously. Bartley tried some oboloe 
play, but he found a wl^ adversuy in his opponent 
At length the latter wu thrown by the cross-heave, and 
this brought Bartley and BIckle to handy grips. Thsre 
wu a very abort struggle between them for the first prize 
of $10, wbloh UVL to Bartley by the fall heel. The eecond 

Srlze ot £6 wu awarded to .BIckle, and £3 u third fell 
) the lot of Blade. Handsome douoenrs were also given 
to " double players," Tucker and Bucknell, and liki ' 
•< standards," whose names we have already pubM 
our colqmns. This bteresUng felt thus ended ln¥i 

satisfactory manner. The prizes for "fallen man? 

thus decided :— Gumming threw Morgan, Besoombothiew 
both W. Baoknell and Oammlng. Beecombe matched for 
a £60 slake to wtestle Slade, two back falls out of thne, hi 
a month's time.

TEE LITTLE FIFER, 

A THEATRICAL R E M I N 1 8 O E NO E. 

Pum m Btck tf a Bdint PromiUr. 
vainn roi m nw Toai duma, 
BT J. 0. FOfB. 

DtiBiKa the winter season of the year IB—, when en- 
gaged u " prompter" at the Detroit theatre, I had become 
on terms of lotlmaoy with a spruce Ittle fellow char- 
acteristically known u "Johnny, the little fifer," who 
harbored In his breut a particular aversion to the stage 
mi Its adherents; hotwlthstandlng, I wu his bosom 
Hend. From sbhool boy days. Johnny wu anti-dramatio 
In his opinions, and verily believed that the greater part 
of the "stage people" were open teachers of evll;and, 
conBcqnentJy, never would allow his ezqnisite, though 
dlmlnntlve form, to grwe the interior of a play house. 
Aware of bis aversion towards those of my profession, I 
formed a determination, that, through me, he should visit 
the theatre. I wu not long In forming a plan, i^hereby 
to secure tiie desired effect. 

The patrlotio horse drama of "Putnam," the delight 
of JnvenllM and verdant countrymen, wu announced for 
representation, on Monday ev^nug; and during the oonne 
of ^e day, meeting with my little friend, I fiacted from 
him a promise, under tiie plea of a favor, to call at the 
stage door on that evsnhig, at 7 o'clock precisely; where- 
upon, I affected hurried business, and started off at a 
quick paoe hi the Alreotlon of the theatre, congratulating 
myself on the feaslbllily of my well-matured scheme. 
Bnt It wu" Diamond cut Diamond," u the reader will 
shortly perceive. Night came, aad with it a crowded 
house; and u I wu about to ring up the curtain, "John- 
ny," with his conntenance exhibiting amazement at the 
strange sights whioh met hb view, wu ushered to my 
stand, where be relaotantly remamed, at my request, 
until the play wta over. In one scene of the play, to 

give proper effect, the Amerioan soldiers march on, 
eaded by a " drummer and fifer," with a Yankee com* 
mandant. As the scene wu on as arranged between the 
"property-mas," and myself, "Johnny's llllpntlan body 
wu suddenly enfolded witbin a great coatof Oontlnental 
patron, a hat with a goose feather in it wu then placed 
uiion his head. A " ue" wu next placed into bis nands, 
and ere be bad time to consider rlgntlUUy be found him- 
eelf before an andlenoe, playbg, " Yankee Doodle," his 
favorite air, on bis favorite InetmmeBt, the << fife," at 
the head of a file of his cowntrymen, u personated by 
the " sopex" During the baslneas of the scene, " Johnny'* 
had snfflolent time for reflection, and I knew by his coun- 
tenance that he contemplated doing mischief. I was not 
wrong in my sapposltlon, for when the commandant 
ordered blm to play up " Tankea Doodle," for an exit, 
with a wicked glance towards the "Prompter's side" did 
the vengeful little fifer Inappropilately strike up " the 
Rogue's March." The characters and " supes" made good 
their exit, bnt " Johnny" remained steadfatt, while play- 
log the Inappropriate air, which brought the house down 
in the most uproaroas applause. ''Go off I Go off I" 
shouted the manager. Go 0'— hia voice was unheard 
amid the deafening shouts of the audience, who were con- 
vnleed with laughter at the ludicrous appearance of 
" Johnny," u he marched and counter-marched aorots 
the stage, his mnilo becoming more Impetuous and violent 
the longer he tarried. " Go off, d— n yon I" thundered 
the now enraged manager, but Johnny's only response 
wu a Bbrlll blut from the fife, and the tumultous 
shouting of the audleDce. The manager at length grew 
wrathy, and losing all sense of propriety ruahed upon the 
stage, selaing " Johnny" by the collar, who was In the act 
of bowing to the audience in return f er the favors ebown 
him on the oooaelon of his itbui, and coming In contact 
wlUi "Johnny's" " efter-plece" sent him headlons through 
the entrance. The audience roared—" Johnny" vacated 
the premises immediately, and Is now more vehement hi 
his condemnation of Uie great moral school, so ably de- 
fended by a mloltter of the Gospel. 



A Hakouan'b Buj,.— a Dutch Journal recounts at the 
beghining of the lut centnry, the city of Ameterdam was 
in the habit of employ big the Hurlnem executioner, and 
with a view to save travelihig expenses. It wu usually 
contrived that a good muy executions shcnld be fixed for 
the same deiy. The following bill, showing the amount 
earned by this fortunate and pains-taking functionary on 
December 17tb, 1712, is preserved In the archives of Am' 
sterdam : " To beheading a man, I6i} to breaUng e 
man on the wheel, 9 blows, at 90 the blow, 27fi; to hang 
Ing the same Individual afterwards, 6fl; to bangbg two 
others, with swords stuck in their he.ads, Ufl; to hanging 
four more atOfl eub, 24fl; to hanging two men and pla- 
carding their breasts, (N. B.— The placards appear to have 
coat nothing) 121fl; to flogging 24 persons, at 8fl. each, 
72fl; to flogghig 8 others, and fixlngswordson their heads, 
9fi; to putting a man In the pUIory, 6fl; to brandings 
man In the baok. £fl; eandrles, 24fl; fur my assistance, 120 
for ropes,- 49., 27fl.'^ 

A SriLLDio Match.— A match of a novel character was 
decided in Ban Franclaco on the SOtb June. It wu a 
spelling match between sixteen pupils of Metsra White 
and Well's schools, eight on a side, wnloh resulted Infavor 
of Mr. White's scholars, they only missbig eleven words 
to seventeen of Mr. Well's, out of 1406 given out. The 
i;etul( exhibits a remarkable degree of pronoenoy on either 
side. The words vfere taken from Sargent's Speller, In. 
discriminately. 

Girmta a Lift.— A lad, of fourteen qr fifteen years of 
age, wu enjoying himself a fbw days since, on abl{ 
swing, up LloKing, in Ohio, when he missed hit hold anu 
went kiting through the branches of the trees, dashed 
through a recce and fell upon a plank which he broke 
through. After this exploit he looked u mnoh worried 
u a steer totted by a locomotive, bnt wu scarcely hurt. 
He landed lull a hundnd fed from Qu poM vlure hi ttarlid.

a cow in thirty tnhntex 



THE SEEBIFF AND THE DOG FIGHT.^ 
Thbrb Is a tolerably good story told of one of the »• 

Sheriffs of , and said story Is a tine bill, not to be 

doubted u to veracity. It wu relatedby a friend of ours. 
Sheriff — (we pubuah no names) Is a man of the right 
stripe, and Is u food of a good joke, when not played 
open biaseir,u any person living on this half-civlllEed 
hemisphere. Now the sheriff Is one of that kind of men 
who always go in for peace, and aoytUng in the way of 
fighting— whether man or beut— he Is particularly down 
on. The sheriff wu the sole owner and' poaaessor of a 
splendid oanhie, of that species known u bull dogs, which 
weighed about 76 pounds, and could whip any four-footed 
animal, from a bear to a ground-hog, that would dare in 
anywise to offend bis majesty. Notwltbstandlog bis 
ability so to do, Oaric (for this wu his name) wunot 
generally of a pugnacious disposition, yet he liked a 
rongh and tumble fight u well u he did nis dinner. He 
had the guardianship of a large mill, store and garden, 
and woe be to that unlucky strange canine who bad the 
audacity to set his unhallowed teet in either of these 
places; tor he conld never be healthy after It, If he should 
be so lucky y to escape with bis life. To proceed with the 
etoiy, one dark rainy night In the spring, after the family 
had retired to rest, and were In dreamland, they were 
suddenly awakened by a fierce growl— a yelp— and then 
a slow.gluttural sound like wind coning out of a broken 
bellows. Two of the sheriff's sou at onoe started down 
stairs to see what waa the row, and in going Into the yard 
they spied Carlo performing a beautiful yet very patnfUl 
surgical operation on the body of an unfortunate canine 
who had dared to enter the garden without an invitation. 
Carlo bad him down in a large patch of stinging nettles, 
and bad about two-thirds of tbe neck of the aforesaid 
oanhie In bis ospaclou mouth, and wu dohig bis best to 
slop tbe wind ttom coming np the windpipe. The canhie's 
testing sppBTatna wu sticking out about four inches, and 
his eyes looked like two pigeon eggs lying on a dung- 
heap. The boye rememberbg that " blessed are peace- 
makers," commenced trying to part tbe belligerent ca- 
nines, whom they saw were very badly natched, u Carlo 
wu havhig It all his own way. They procured a large 
pall of cold water, and sensed It on the warriors, which 
water served to revive the spirits of the dying dog, and 
he raised to Us feet, caught one «f Carlo's ears, and the 
fight then commenced In earnest 'Twu " nip and tuek" 
for five minutes, when Carlo succeeded hi selzhig his an- 
oigonist by the left fore leg, which caused the stranger to 
>^Tp in imitation of a half doaen Indian wa^whoopx At 
this Juncture tbe sheriff, who had been looking out of the 
window, oame runnhig down stahrs, minus pants, coat, 
bat or boots, and rushing out, commenced belabcrlog the 
dogs severely; bnt flndlog that of no particular use, he 
Odught hold of the narrative of Carlo, and one of tbe boys 
canght hold of the stranger's narrative, and then com- 
menced pulling; suddenly the sherlfTs " tall hold" slipped, 
and he found himielf Iq a sitting poatnre, in a large 
patch of ttlnging nettles. Now, reader, I suppose you 
know what stlogiog nettles are like: youmlgutjuetu 
well sit down on a' red hot stove, and then put camphor 
on the scorched plaoea Tbe sheriff wu not long k gain- 
ing a standing position, and u there wunothfig to In- 
terpose between the nettles and the cuticle, you may 
imagine the pain which It canted blm. He ran Into the 
house, got out the medlolne-boz, seized on a bottle ot 
liniment, and oommenoed rubbing the most painful parts. 
Buffioe It to say that It was about two weeks before he 
could reinme a sitting position; and now he Is more than 
ever down on fights of any kind, but particularly dog 
fights. A 

Novn. PBDBBTmNUii.— At the Bangor, (Me.,) Trotting 
Park, on tbe 21tt IntL, James Smith, of Albany, ran round 
the track (mile) four times, drawing a light sulky, hi Sl:9l. 
A toot raos then cams off between an Indlai^ and two 
white men, wbloh waxwon by the red (kin, who made 
bis five miles In 90:12.

Thi BoeDPS I am aboat to derorlbe happened In tbe

Id'ge la biglier and more dry than tbe reat of ibe ooanty, 
md for this reaeon the land le now more valuable tban 
n other portions. It la called Sugar R''dge, from the 
)leasant eager maple grovea that court tbe gentle 
)reezeB, and refreah tbe weary traveler with a anmpiuoua 
ihsde. This ridge la eeveral miles wide la aome plaoeK. 
md tbe roads are never very had. Tbe nortbrro and 
reatern part of ihls ooanty la atlll «lld and anaopy, wltb 
trge foreeta. Tbrongb theae foreats atlll roam ibe deer, 
war, wolf, and wild oat. It was oa Ibia lonely ridgp, 
ibont six miles ttom tbe pleasant town of Yaowrkt, wbiob 
lonnty seat la eltaated In tbe oeatre of tbe eounty, that 
me of tbe most terrlflo haod-to band struggles ever wa« 
oaght. Tbia fatal combat ooonrred In iha year 1837. 
md many of oar oUlzena have a vivid rronlleotlon of tbe 
iloody trantaottoD, Qalte a number of duula have been 
'ooght by ladlana In thia coonty. Among tbe nnmber, 
waldeB the one above referred to, waa a oootfat between 
Beartkln and Cherokee. Thla light only leatfd a few 
Blnutet. A apeotator of the scene iDforms as that tbe 
itrokea of the knife end tomahawk were eo rap'd that It 
ras Impossible to follow the blows wltb tbe eye. Uaoy 
ilowa were waid«d off with tbe dexterity of a boier. 
Iparriog, parrying off, and preventlDic tbe effeols of the 
)10W8, was a afllenoe among the ludlans, carried to a 
[Teat degree of perfeotlon. In Ibis Bubt Cherokee waa 
mooked oat of time, and after beldtc hacked np bsdiy, 
;rle4 "ago," and tbe fight ended. Cherokee laid arouod 
alth tala aorea for a long time, while Seankhi received 
inly one savere gash on his arm. 

On this dellghlfal ridge, where we now tpark tbe lovely 
^alefaoed naldeo, a fine foang chief wooed and won the 
leait of (he beeatirol, Ark eyed lodlaa belle of Sugar 
lldge. Their honeyed interviews ot paaaloDed eoetaoy

rate ; bat, as other lovers, they eijeyed a good tine gen- 
irally, and rambled tbrough flowery grovee, and made 
kappy vltlts, and paaaed tbrongh pleaaant actines. But It 
b said " the ooarse of tne love never rnoa smooth." An 
irll day cane upon them. Another youog chief, of tbe 
kighest lodlan penonal attraotiODS and tasoloailona, fell 
Into her soolity. Her cbarmlog, lovely conotenanci),

tbe other to Immediately accept the challenge. 

Three weeks previons to battle, lbs time and plaoe

narrates Ibe glories of these two Indian bravee. Here 
slumbers the pride ol a doUog mother, and the blaeted 
bnpps of a atrlcken father. The fair boy grow np a noble 
youth. Like a well-onltlvated tree, aeekiog a deep base, 
and bearing a high and floarlsbleg bead, as he wu be- 
glnolDg to bloom with the glories aod vlrtaee of man- 
hood. Like tbe lofty pine that waa beglaolog to rise 
In ila grandeor, and overlooking the aarroandlog trees, 



beoontng tbe glory of tbe forest, when, alasl a fiery bolt, 
let loose l^om tbe floating batteries of the olonds, lays Its 
aymmetrloal form and branches in a»bes. But does be

mother who dandled him upon her knees— of the father 
that looked open blm with a bosom swelling with pride, 
and tbe fair maiden that gazed npon htm with eyes of 
love, were crashed together with his bleeding heart and 
laoereted body, that has lon^ since tnrned to dost, and 
over whose heaid now smiles the green f od, regardless of 
tbe hf ro wboae breast It coven. What a beart-plnrolng 
spectacle, lo behold tbIe solemn group wllb their friends, 
aa la the agony of despair they olothe that hero form 
with tbe clod— ebroad-mantle of death. Ton behold the 
beart-reodlog convulelons of grief, as they gaze upon that 
face for the last time. At ibe base or the mound be 
sleeps bis last sleep, while the gentle zephyrs wave, tbe 
bloomlog flowers and nodding groas, softly aod slleiitly 
oaatiog their fragrance over thla mighty chamber of 
death. Here now la pillowed the poor Indian I Tbe 
battle-ground was near tbe cherished graves of tbeir

Behold tbe beautiful monnd that riees like a temple- the 
massive heap of mouldering olay, where sleeps the 
mighty warrler, tbe fair iqaaw, the beautiful maiden, tbe 
mighty ohleftalu, and friend and rival, la one everUallng 
bed. 

Tbe fair maiden returned to her wigwam to die of a 
broken heart. No noble, youthful chief, retomed from 
the bold feats of war to wrap his .love In strong, bnt ten- 
der arms of affeotlon. No love-beaming counteDance, 
retorned from tbe suooeeafal pleasares of the obese, laden 
with wild game to be dressed by her finely moulded 
bands, while her smUIng, obarmlog face painted the glo- 
rious love of an lodlan maiden hear^in all the parity of 
nature. No majestic and symmelrlcabform to real when 
weary apon the fura spread q.ut apon the floor of the 
oabla by gentle bands, and lolled to sweet repoM by the 
bird-like oarrolling aonga of the gentle voice of the queen-
