This is true in a hih decree of cV-r'.ain New York par.ers, inc'.j.l'p ths Sur, the Sun and the World, the first named often pitching into one rf the other two as occasion nny oitvr. The .."est in stance is a fine specimen rf criticism, and has much humor in it. It is from The Star, of New York, and is found in the department of "The man about Towa." Esteemed afternoon contemporaries often publish remarkable pieces of news; which, somehow or otner, are usually superciliously neglected by the morning pajiers. The following, from the Evening Sun, however, is too good not to be noticed; Policeman Murphy of the First Pre cinct, Tersev Citv. attempted last night to break up a fight between a gang of roughs at the corner ot i mra avenue and Colgate street. He partially sue ceeded, when Thomas Hartgaa of No. 400 First street dealt him three terrific blows in the face, stunning him, and and tearing his uniform into pieces. Murphy finally conquered him by club bine him on the head until he became unconscious. A man, who by three terrific blows in the face, could tear another's uniform to pieces, must have a power of execution far superior, not only to John 1 sumvan. out to uruur do Jack the Giant Killer, Hercules, Guy of Warwick, or any of the great fighters of old. Besides tearing the the policeman's uniform to pieces, Mr. Hartigan stunned him. But neither! that nor the loss of his clothes naa any effect upon the gallant "copper." Stunned as he was he went on ciuo bing, and finally reduced theobstreper i ous Harticran to the, same unconcious to ... . .,u.ct. .. it wurw sometime,. 1, v:n,t)re . tov say, before even'the EveningSun surpasses this story in ltsrattempts at the woncienui, Some Antler. On one of the box freight rars bound for Raleigh, this morning; couid be seen a real wonder in the way of the head and horns of an im mense stag, which was crated in substantial manner lad marked, 'W. J. Hawkins, Raleigh. J From the size of the neck' and antle one woulJ doubt if such a creature iould be a native of this continent; bit it comes from Louisville, Ky. The great weight of the antlers would wets to have made it necessary for the animal who sported them to have- weighed over five hundred pounds. 'These antler consist of two prongs which grow out on each tide to the distance of yt feet apart at the points, with two ' or three sharp spurs at irregular distances, in addition to which there are four in dependent boms projecting from the forehead and in shape resemblir? pitchfork. The elevation of the horns is s-s feet above the roots, the whole making one of the most formid ablyitooking fighters that one could imagine. The neck at the point of severance from the - shoulders is 14 inches one way and 18 inches theoth- er. " Try to imagine such an animal turn ing on a pack of hounds and throwing them fifteen feet in the air, or running his antlers into the flank of a horse and putting the horse to flight, provi ded he was not wounded so tartly as to be unable to fly. , . Car Croiiliers. ' ' ' Some nerrons remember the old fel low of South Carolina who was never satisfied with' Providence' as displayed in the weather and the crops. He was so addicted to croaking; that at one time, when the crops were so- fine as to produce'gencral rejoicing, some of his neighbors expi essed the opunon that he still had Rome complaint to make to test which they approached him and congratulated him on the splendid out look. "Mr Parker," said one of the men, "I guess you will admit- that we have as fine a ctop prospecjtas one could ask for." "Yes," said Mr Parker, with shrugging of his sholders, the crops are fine, but I've just been thinking that the strain on the land in produc ing the presentcrop will be so great that we shall lnve a failure next year ' '- " " " " ' ' ' Unwise- . : ' - How the Atlanta Constitution and Cnrdon could have so lost their heads as to advocate a boycott of the North on .account of the Federal .Elec tions bill, under consideration by the Senate, it will be difficult to deter mine. The main point is that such a boycott would be impracticable, and if impracticable its adoption as a meas ure of retaliation would show up our Southern section in a very sad plight A sham boycott and no other sort would be practicable would simply be ridiculous. . ; ' ' UU Wanhinae. . wv Iparmfrom the Madison Leader that Mr. P.

'wB.a mm4 wlaa, rlu These words come to mind while reading the account in the Asheville Citizen of a very deplorable affair which occurred in a drinking saloon ot that city on Friday night last. The particular are too horrible to relate. Two men lost their lives, one dying on the spot, the other breathing his last next morning. The names of the men killed were Milster and Mcln tire. They seem to have disagreed about a certain disreputable woman( and it is natural to conclude that the inspiration and the occasion ot the shooting were found in the bar room. We have an account of the affair from a correspondent at Asheville, but as the matter is undergoing investiga tion, we think it well to withhold the opinion thus expressed. At the close of the services at the Baptist church yesterday morning the pastor greatly surprised the people by the following t "I now offer my tesignation as pas tor of this- church. After much prayerful consideration I have con eluded that it is my duty to accept the call to Wake Forest Not longer ago than last June I told some of the dea cons of that church that they need not call me ; for I did not see it my duty to leave my work here to go to any other field. I have been unanimously called and the whole field put before me in such light as thoroughly con vinces me that it is my duty to go.

Guatemala s loss was by far the most severe, less than one hundred and fifty men being killed on the side of Salvador. v .vV.'- At our Conference day: evening I v someoftlieconsiu Jed me to take tie 1 rang it ftir ' here I si '! 1 n. 1 ,ui' Fri iV iiy btie-you ons which have .If I canar v. ith thejeburch 1 to begin my work Dreadful Cyclone-: .
