Yesterday morning, Mrs. Jennie Cros-land,
niece of "Wm. Shaw, Sr., took her
four children and went over to Shaker-
town, to make their future home. Mr.
.Shaw followed them to the depot, and
protested against the girls being taken
away, claiming that as he was their guardian,
he had the right to take charge of
them. Whilst in waiting for the train,
some unpleasant personal remarks were
uttered by both parties, but Mrs. C. was
finally permitted to take her children.
In expressing sympathy for Mrs.
Tom Bashford made some remarks
which were not complimentary to Mr.
Shaw. Mr. S. and Mr. B. then exchanged
a volley of words, after which they exchanged
blow Mr. S. striking
Ir. B. on the cheek with his cane, and
Mr. B. giving Mr. S. a slap on the cheek
with his open hand, calling it even. Mr.
B., being much younger, larger and more

war further, so hostilities ceased, and an
-armistice was declared.
SEIiliS BROTHERS'
Six Enormous Railroad Showfl,
Now United, Exhibiting
In Three Rings and
Under SixBlgients,
Etc., Etc
The Sells Brothers afe on the foadj
this season, with an exhibition which,
from its altogether unprecedented magnitude
and its startling departure from
the usages of canvass exhibitions, should,
and will prove a formidable rival to the
best of the monster entainmenta which
periodically visit us. Having effected u
consolidation of all the amusement enterprises,
they find the necessity Absolute to
to use six tents in order to satisfactorily
display theirmultiform attractions. These
tents are each of colossal construction
and number four more than haye ever
Deen used by kindred exhibitions. The
patronage of this great shofr has been
commensurate with its magnitude, and
the occasions are not infrequent when
the management are obliged to give three
exhibitions a day in order to hold the
people.
The parade, which is spoken of as
beingf one of the finest ever put upon the
streets, will introduce the "Four Handsomest
Women in America," who have
been selected in response to liberal advertising
during the past winter, and who
will appear in the new tableau of
"Columbia and her Court of Beauty."
The consolidation of the six extensive
menageries under their control enables
the Sells Brothers to offer for inspection
a zoological collection which has no precedent
and which will include a number
of recent importations of animals and
new to America. Among these are an
Aurochs, from the forests of Lithuania,
an Abyssinian Vlacke Vark and Malacca
Babiroussa. A pair of Woolly Elephants,
from the Malay Archipelago, will excite
the attention of the curious, and are the
only ones ever brought from their native
land. The monster pair of Hippopotami,
exhibited through America by this management
last season, and which were
then believed to have attained their full
growth, have still further proportions and
are still growing. It is confidently
that the female will soon add to the
hippopotami population of America.
The circus department is exceptionally
attractive, and within it are assembled
the most celebrated performers of the
day. The undisputed champion bareback
equestrian, Charles Fish, rides both
ifternoon and evening, and the the noted
Andalusian celebrity, Signorita Adelaide
Oordona, an equestrienne who has no
eqnal, has been especially engaged from
her European managers for a limited
season of twenty-eight weeks. The show
will exhibit at Paris, Tuesday April 25th.
Wicked Old Boh.
Bob Ingersoll replied to Talmage, Sunday
in New York. He said amongmany
pungent sayings, " 'I've misquoted the
story of Jonah,' Talmage says. "When
somebody had been guilty of blasphemy
the winds rose ; they tried to get Jonah
ashore, but couldn't do it. The sea waxed
He was swallowed by a whale. The people
of Minerva wrapped all their cattle up
in sackcloth, and if anything would have
pleased God, I should think that would.
Jonah sat under a gourd, and God made
a worm out of some omnipotence He had
left over, and set it at work on the gourd.
Talmase don't think Jonah was in the
whale's belly he staid in his mouth. He
says he might have been in the whale's
stomach, and avoided the action of the
gnstric juice by walking up and down
Imagine Jonah sitting on a back tooth,
leaning against the upper jaw, longingly
looking through the open mouth for sign&
of land ! But that's Scripture, and
you've got to believe it or be damned."

BARNES NOTES.
Cynthiana News.
There is no question but what Barnes
was whip-sawed in this lace.
We hope to hear a good report from
the great evangelist and his work at
Georg'etown,the "Belle of the Blue Grass."
Rev. J. R. Barbee was so edified with
Barnes' preaching that' he went over to
Georgetown Monday to remain during the
week.
Barnes is credited with having said in a
sermon at Georgetown "that the devil has
captured Cynthiana," A casual observer
would have thought so had he have hap
pened along last week.
As a whole we guess it was a success.
He leaves many admiring friends in this
place who believe firmly in Barnes and
his teachings. Also scores of persons who
like him but have a very poor opinion of
his teachings.
There were about $220 collected to pay
the expenses of the revival which was
disposed of as follows: Board bill at the
Smith House, $50; hall rent, $70; incidental
expenses, $5; leaving $100, which was
turned over to tie Barnes temily . t

It took Longfellow one month to write
