Those who go to the theater to-night
will certainly enjoy a pleasant evening.
Mr. Reade is a superb reader and never
fails to make those who hear him laugh
heartily. But more than this his read
ing is grand acting in its puest sim
plicity. In listening to his reading one
cannot fail to learn a lesson in elooulion
which he can never forget. No one
should fail to hear him to-night.
The Chattanooga Times says: "If it
were possible to make people die with
laughter. Prof. Reade could accomplish
that feat."

Divorces.
On the calendar for the special term
of Craven Superior Court there are fif
teen suits for divorce, all colored. Be-
fore'the war, so the old people tell us, a
divorce in North Carolina was seldom
heard of. But the way the thing
going on now, New England won't be
able to hold us a light in a few years
But it is gratifying to know that it is a
rare thing yet to hear or a divorce
among our white citizens; and wo hope
our colored citizens will learn to regard
the matrimonial relation . witu more
sacredness as they advance in intelll
gence. If their condition cannot bo im
proved, morally, then, verily, our
efforts to educate them aro in vain.

The City Marshall, with a portion of
his force, made a raid on Five Points on
Wednesday night, and; made a ten

result of the raid was . the arraigning of
nine persons, six women and three men;
all colored, before the Mayor's court
yesterday morning.
John SI ad e, col., who, we believe,
keeps a bar room in that section, was up
for keeping a disorderly house and also
under a second charge for being drunk
and disorderly. He was fined ten dol

five dollars and cost for the second. ; He

Death of Ex Vice-President Colfax,
Washington: D. C, Jan. 13. In the
House to-day Mr. Browne, of Indiana,
arising, said: "I perform the sad duty
of announcing to the House the death
of Schuyler Colfax, at one time Speaker
of this House and late Vice-President
of the United States. A telegJam was
received through the Associated Press
this afternoon, at about 2 o'clock, an
nouncing this sad event. I offer the
following resolution:"
Whereas, Intelligence has just reached

many years a member of this body and
its Speaker, and late Vice-President of
the United States, died this day at Man-
kato, Minn., and wnereupon the de
ceased was a distinguished citizen of
this Republic and a conspicuous figure
in its history, and, whereas it is fit that
this House, in which he so long served
and over which he presided as Speaker,
should give an expression of its sorrow
for his loss, its regard for his memory
and its sympathy for his . bereaved
family; therefore, be it
Resolved, That this House do now ad

The resolution, at 5:15 o clock, was

A Strange Fish.
John Brockets, our esteemed towns
man, was laying in a mess of Roanoke
Sound oysters on Water street on Wed
nesday whon he opened a shell and
found inside of it a queer fish, four
inches long, with a head like a sheeps-
head, but not a sheepshead. He had a
dorsal fin running one-third the length
of his spinal column and a fin on either
side near his gills. He was spotted
with gray and brown and black spots.
When Brockelt saw him he expanded
his eyes to a wonderful size and swore
(be will swear sometimes) it was a
young sea-serpent. The oyster had been
out of the water over two days when
Brockelt opened it and that queer fish
had lived out of his native elemont all
that time, and when he became ac
quainted with Brockett he was alive
and kicking his tail, and apparently
satisfied and happy. This shows that
the species had great tenacity of life
and one would suppose that he was of
the catfish or eel family, but for his
having no marks of family resemblance.
He must have intruded into the castle
of that oyster when he was a fishelette
or minnow, for an oyster, never hos
pitable to strangers, always peeps out
upon the outside world through a very
small aperture, and having no arma
ment of offensive or defensive warfare
except v his mouth, the - fish must
have intruded .when he was so
young and small as not to at
tract attention. Then as to the
time, that that sea-serpent (supposing
him to be a sea-serpent, as John Brock
ett believes) had occupied his luxurious
quarters and dined every day upon his
landlord s bowels. ao was evidently
more than a year, yes probably more
than two years old, for the oyster was
at least two years old, and the fishelette
could not, have entered that oyster's
luxurious apartments in the infantile
condition of the oyster, bo that he was
probably three years old and had been
living on his landlord a year or more,
According to the theory of the meta-
phorphosis of matter, that fish was an
oyster in another form and Brockett
might have eaten him with unusual en
joyment. The fish was sent alivo to
Uapt. Watters, who is the Agassizof
our section, and while Watters was
diagnosing his genesis he expired with
two gasps from his gills and a flirt of his
tail. He is preserved in alcohol to be
sent to the Economist. Brockett has
named the strange fish Skinner, in com
pliment to our congressman.
P. S. The strange animal has been
brought to us and we diagnosed it to be
of the ichtyosaurua species, resembling
the diabolos-ichthyoid, or devil-fish.

lawless Miners.
Columbus, Ohio, Jan. 12. Last night
news was received at the Hocking Iron
and Coal, office in this city that one of
their mines at New Straitsville, known
as No. 8, had ' been set on fire and was
burning so fiercely as to be beyond con
trol. Later reports confirmed the first
accounts, and the mine is still burning.
It is the largest mine in the Hocking
Valley, and, it is said, in the world. It
is ascertained that the party that set fire
to the mine obtained entrance through
W. P. Rend 'a mine, which is connected
with No. 5, thus making discovery by
the guards on the outside of the mines
impossible. The fire was not discov
rfld bv thn pimrnR nnt.il ahnnt l nV.lor.V

mud nt rniiw tn nTlinoiiiuh thn flnmps.
but without success.
Later efforts were said to have been
made to induce some of the Straitsville
miners to assist in setting control ovnr
the flames, but no one seemed willing
Inland a hnlninirhnnri. An enirinnnnrt
some, miners from Buchtel were taken
to New Straitsville this morning, and it
is thought that the lorce sent may be
sufficient to master the fire.
A' rumor was current among the
miners to-day that 125 cowboys had as
sembled at New Straitsville, who would
shortly make a raid on all the working
miners, uuarus are ueing uouuieu ai
the mines in the valley, and crisis is
near at band. Mine no, o, wmcn nas a
capacity ot 120 cars per day, had been
closed lor Bometime, and it was supposed
to be securely blocked at the mouth;
DU eutrauuo who tjuiueu oy uiggmg un-
der or through the stone and wood
work,
Attempts on the part of some guards
to get at the burning mine were met
with a shower of Btones, and nothing
could be done to extinguish the fire
then.' The Division Superintendent at
Buchtel was ordered this morning to go
up to Straitsville with a force of men to
assist in closing up the burning mine to
prevent further damage. No assistance
for this purpose could be obtained at
Straitsville. Col. Churchill, Treasurer
of the Columbus and Hocking Coal and
Iron Company, says
"There will be a grand walk around
before long if this thing doesn't stop,
and we won't get licked either. We
have become tired, and if - the State
Government will not take a hand in
suppressing these murderers, incendi
aries, and cutthroats we must look after
our interests in our own way. The
country will hear of something that will
wake it up from one end to the other
unless some official action is taken to
put an end to lawlessness."
Col. unurcniii said tnat notwithstand
ing the heavy expense of guarding its
property and miners,, the company
cleared- $3,000 last mo :th, but it was
done under disadvantages, and scarcely
a member of the firm had been able to
spend an evening with his family for
three months.
Gov. Hoadly is in Indianapolis attend
ing the inauguration of Gov. Gray. He
has been informed by telegraph of the
alarming situation in the valley, and
asked to call out the militia. This he
will undoubtedly refuse to do unless
the Sheriff of Hocking county says that
the civil authorities are powerless.
Paris, Jan. 12. The Government has
received news from Saigon of a slight
agitation in Cambodia. A band of ma
rauders had surprised a French military
post, The Government has taken such
action as the circumstances required.
Another version of the Cambodian
trouble is as follows: It is learned from
semi-official sources that a serious re
volt, headed by a brother of the Kins',
has occurred in Cambodia. The revolu
tionists have obtained complete' posses
sion of a number of the French posts
and murdered the garrisons. It is sus
pected that Chinese intrigue is at the
bottom of the uprising, and a general
massacre of the French at the military
posts is feared. . The King nas tele
graphed that he is powerless to resist
the revolutionists ana a large force ot
French troops has been ordered to hold
itself in readiness to proceed from ai-
gontoaidthe King in restoring order
and Dunishinz the offenders.
Advices from camnodia to tne Temps
state that the outbreak in that country
is very serious. The King's brother is
at the head of the insurgents, who have
made a successful attack on the troops.

Arsenic bj the Pint.
J. A. Smith, a Gainesville, Ga., mer
chant, says: "For years I was a victim
to the combined effects of Erysipelas
and an aggravated type of Eczema, that
battled all medical skill. I consulted
the -very best physicians in the United
States to no good purpose. I gave every
patent medicine that was recommended
a faithful trial and received no benefit.
I took large quantities of potash and a
pint cup full of arsenic pills.' The pat
ent medicine, pills, and potash mixtures
fed instead of curing the disease. They
destroyed my appetite and wrecked my
system I lost flesh and energy I lost
three years from my business and spent
$3,000 in a fruitless effort to regain my
health. At last when I began to con-
siuer my cauu nupeiess, commenced
taking S. S. - S., and in a short time I
wa8 entirely cured, i waited a year
aIter a cure was effected, and continued
to take Swift's Specific off and on as a
80rt ot safeguard, before I was willing
to make PUDllO thlB marVClOUS CUTO,
Being assured beyond the possibility of
a doubt that the cure was permanent, I
w U1BW"J my case iur mo
benefit of my f ellowmen
My skin Is now as smooth as it was
when a boy. I weigh more than I ever
did in my life, and my general health
was never better. I passed through last
winter (which was an unusually cold
one) without losing a single day from
my business. For the last twelve
months I have had no return of the ery
sipelas in any shape or form, or any
touch of eczema. "
