LBESBURQ, VA. , June 1.-a. desperate
affray occurred yesterday evening be?
tween two of our best citizens, (oue of
them very wealthy,) on Heater's Island,
in the Po to m no Ki vor, just below the
Point of Rooks, Maryland. It seems
that Mr. Richard Heater and bis bro thor?
in law, Mr. Apple, were in/ their corn?
field, and got into a quarrel, aud finally
a fight, whereupon they each used their
knives freely-Heater killing Apple, and
Apple wounding Heater mortally. The
latter is now unconscious, aud the doc?
tor pronounces bim beyond the hope of
?. recovery. They were both ttrribly
hacked to pieces. The parties were
alone, so that auy evidence, if, per
obanoe, it shall be required, must be cir?
cumstantial.

The recent letter of Gen. Bradley T.
Johnson, formerly of Maryland, now of
Virginia, advising the complete identifi?
cation of the Southern cause with the
Liberal movement, as represented by
Greeley aud Brown, is accepted in Vir?
ginia as an offset to the Mosby endorse?
ment of Grant. He concludes his letter
in this vigorous fashion: ''We can give
Greeley 120 votes, and only require sixty
votes from the North or West to elect
him. Ii the Democracy will give him a
beurty support his ohances are first rate.
A separate Demooratio nomination means
a divided South, an utterly overwhelm?
ing Radical North, and anarchy at the
end of foar years more of military
rule. I sincerely think it is more than
folly-it is criminal-to countenance
such a thing. Uuitu on Greeley, and

EXTRAORDINARY FISHING.-The latest}
fish story, says tho Savannah Advertiser,
which wo are about to give to our read?
ers, bas the usual flavor of exaggeration
about it, but we are nshured by tho gen?
tleman that it is strictly true: A party
of six gentlomen from this oity visited
Lake Dunn, on the Atlautio and Gulf
Railroad, some fifty miles from Savan?
nah, last week, and iu a period of six
hours and-a-half, captured 487 tish, cou
Histing of trout, bream and peroh. This
is extraordinary sport, aud is enough to
excite the enthusiasm of the worst cynic
that ever wasted an entire morning over
a book and line without a bite.
The Tiohboroe claimant, being oat of
prison, is going about making speeches,
and we have report of one delivered at
Alresford, which begun in this confident
way: "My friends, tenants and neigh?
bors." Certainly, this claim, will not
stiffer for laok of persistent iteration.
"You knew me," said the self styled Sir
Roger, "in former days, and know I am
not an impostor, a villain, a scoundrel,
as branded by the Attorney-Qenoral."
There is something almost staggering in
the appeals which the maa made, snob
as: "I.have been continually with yon
who knew me in former days, and yet no
one here has ventured to call me an im?
postor, except tho connections of my
family who are interested in so doing."
And then how simply forcible is the in?
quiry: "Is my mother's evidence aud
my solicitor's to be ignored because a
lord comes forward and swears that be
tattooed me?" And so tbe speaker con?
cluded with hoping the time would
shortly come when "he should live
among them again." It is a noteworthy
fact that the tenants on the estates seem
thoroughly to believe in the justness of
this extraordinary olaim; but it is proba?
bly one of those which will never be
satisfactory settled. Half the world will
continue to believe tbe man to bo Sir
Roger, and tbe other moiety will cherish
a contrary opinion. It's something like
the case of the Man in the Iron Mask, or
of Louis XVTIih over again.
A coner, te is being used in Cbioago

Band, ashes and tho finer particles of
debris from the burnt' district. The
concrete is mixed somewhat thinner than
mortar, and is poured into the pine
board moulds which shape the wall, and
at the same time broken brick and stone
from the ruins are imbedded as thickly
ac may be in the mass, whioh sets firmly
in forty-eight hours. It is then coated
over with Portland oement, of which
also all the trimmings are composed, itu
surface being so cut and pointed as tc
be almost indistinguishable from dari
gray sand-Btone. Walls are built of con
crete two feet in thickness. The advan
tage claimed for this material is, thu
unskilled laborara are perfectly compe
tent to do the work uuder proper super
vision, and much expense is thereb;
saved. Experiments were made severs
years ago by the British Government, ii
whioh a similar oonorete was used in th
construction of army stables, tbe iabo
being supplied by soldiers who bad n
previous experience in such work. Th
result of the experiment was reported t
be satisfactory in every way.
The following is an editorial "poi

A S KV EUE PUNISHMENT.-An interest?
ing question has arisen between M.
Thiers' Government aod the French
press. The Administration, it is stated,
proposes to compass a law compelling
the journals to publish the official ab?
stract of the proceedings of the Assem?
bly whenever a newspaper deals with
the proceedings of that body, and to
print the report ia "leader" type sud
give it a prominent position in the
paper. The reason for this action is
found in the fact that the Frenob jour?
nalistic method of reporting the delibe?
rations of their Solons is to dramatise,
as it were, the scenes, incidents aud
speeches of the sessions, and to present
them in a highly-garnished shape and
full of spicy details. Thia may not be
regular, but it makes very entertaining
reading for the publio, especially, as is
often the case, when some pompons
rural deputy is shown up in all his ridi?
culous pretentiousness. In response to
this proposed law, the Paris journals,
correspondent says, will ignore the 720
deputies entirely. Thia will indeed be a
severe punishment; foi if there is any?
thing that thu average M. Gogo of legis?
lation becomes restive undar, it is to find
himself ignored by the morning paper,
winch preserves a provoking silence
upon his eloquence of the day before.
Neglected by the press, these deputies
will, in a certain way, have ceased to
exist.
MARRIAGE OFFICES -Late London
papers give a curious account of an
"Offioe for Marriages" which is in full
running order in Loudon, and in avery
flourishing condition. The office under?
takes to obtain matrimonial partners
with desirable qualifications for all ap?
plicants. The matches produced uy this
concern claim to be more satisfactory
than those said to be made io heaven,
and doubtless are better than the ma?
jority of those patched ap by parents and
friends.
