TIIE INTELLIGENCER. SATURDAY MORNING, NOV. 0, 1858. Largest Circulation of any Paper in West em Virginia. Ni'jh { Injure luit, soinc dozen or more raga muftin looking young fellows, with their faces painted black, made tlieir appearance in the streets. They were disguised as negroes, with wigs resembling black wool stretched over their heads. . Some were dressed in female apparel, and others were grotesquely attired in breeches, toothpick coats and shocking bad hats. When we first got a glimpse of them they were in a .Main street barroom, and although some of those rigged in calico were quite young, they were all drinking thirstily of whisky, and, like Oliver Twist, eternally "asking for more." This party of self made Africans were accompanied by a fellow who played the violin, and occasionally they would divide oil', form a cotillion, and in dulge in a regular breakdown. After play the thing out pretty effectually, and getting about as "drunk as the articles of war would consistently permit," the thing broke up in a terrific row at the MeLnre Honse corner. A little fellow encased in calico, voluminously hooped, fancied that somebody struck him, whereupon he drew a long knife, put on a pair of brass knucklers, and made at one of his lar ger negro companions. After making two or three desperate cuts, the little fellow was mas tered by superior strength, thrown down and disarmed. It was an exciting scene, and was vastly enjoyed by a large crowd which had col lected about the corner. As we intimated yesterday morning, there is a fair chance for same analytical chemist to immortalize himself and do the city a service by ascertaining the parts and ingredients of which our modern whisky iscoinposed. It is playing some strange pranks. -O ?Cf ? A Dark Time.?Umbrellas and tarpaulin coats greeted us yesterday upon every turn and glistened in the universal gloom. The air was raw, damp, and chilly, as productive of colds chilblains. The cold rain splashed agaiust the windows as if mad at being barred out, and a still", wintry wind sustained it bravely. The night was one of Egyptian darkness, foggy and humid. The gas lamps cast but a dim ilght, and pedestrians went groping through the more obscure parts of the town, with their hand lights, moving about like so many Jack o Lan tern-i. Maguifiecent opportunities were pre sented to the perambulating public to pitch into any of the hundred man-traps along the streets, and many adventurous persons availed them selves of the same with most happy results.? We saw an old gentleman, whose form tended to obesity, sort o' squirming or struggling out of a red mud cellar, to which he had just paid a short und unceremonious visit, during the performance of a most remarkable acrobatic feat, lie looked likejthe hind quarters of bad luck. liunaMay Jfegroct.?Ten negroes, three wo men, two children and 5 men, ran away from I'runtytown on Sunday night about eleven o clock, taking with them seven horses. Their horses were discovered near the residence of Thos. 15. Petty, about six miles south of Mor gantown, on the Fairmont Pike, on Monday morning about live o'clock. Three of them be longed to Zed. Shields, three to Cornelius Eun nells, three to Col. E. J. Armstrong, and one to Jas. W. Huston.?Alorganloton Star. We lears from a gentleman just arrived from the scene, that the negroes were overtaken in Fayette county, Pa., where a desperate fight took place, and the owners and others pursuing were beaten back. Col. Armstrong, of the pur suing parly, was attacked by one of the negroes with a corn cleaver, and would have been killed but for the interference of one of his own ser vants, who stepped in to protect his master.? Another of the party pursuing was fiercely at tacked and badly injured, while the negroes made their escape. The fight took place on what is known as the Bachelor Farm. Day be fore yesterday a party of about twenty-five per sons, from Morgantown, started in pursuit of the negroes, but nothing additional had been heard at hist accounts from cither the pursuing or pursued. A Dog Fancier in Trouble.?A man from Ohio, named James Macrone, was passing down Main street, yesterday, leading a villianous look ing bull dog. Seeing a good proportioned speci men of the canine race chained in the ware house of the Messrs. Reed, near the stone bridge, Macrone impudently thrust his {dog upon the other, to see which could whip. A disturbance ensued when Macrone was ordered to avaunt mid quit the place with his savage cur. Instead of complying with this request Macrone stood proclaiming his dogs fighting capacity in a very profane manner. He was arrested, taken be fore Aid. McCourtney and fined two dolars and a half. Anniversary.?We have received a circular stating that the citizens of Western Pennsylva nia aro making arrangements to appropriately celebrate the 25th inst. at Pittsburgh-the con tinental anniversary of the capture of Fort Du quesne, or in other words, the overthrow of the French and the establishment of Anglo-Saxon dominion in the Valley of the Ohio. A grand procession of the citizens of Western Pennsyl vania is proposed in which prominence will be Riven to the Municipal, County, State and Na tional officers who may honor the event by their presence. Edward Everett has been invited to deliver his address on "Washington" on the occasion. The Riter.-The river was coming up still at the rate of about one inch every twenty-four hours, the channel showing a depth last night of three feet fivo inches. Despatches from Pittsbuigh announce a slight improvement in the river with good prospects. The rains of yesterday and night before last must keep up the swelL The Health.?During the last month there were but nine deaths in the city. Five of them were of consumption. Seven of the number were under one year of age. This shows the city to be in a remarkably healthy condition. Curing tlamx.?The following useful rcceipt which wo find credited to tho Scientific Ameri can, wc publish for tho benefit of our city as well as country readers:?"As the time is at hand for preparing these useful stores of rich and savory food, a few words will not be out r.f place in regard to them. The legs of hogs short in the hock, arc the best for hams, and should be chosen in preference to bulky bogs. They may be salted by immersion in a clean pickle, containing a little sugar and saltpetre dissolved, or they may be salted by rubbing ground solar evaporated salt over them, turning them every day and giving them a good rubbing. A little sugar and ground black pepper added to the salt will materially improve tho flavor of tho meat. It requires about a month to salt hams by the wet process, and three weeks by the dry system. At the end of this period, they should be hung up for a few days to drip, and then they arc ready for smoking. Much depends on the kind of material used for smoking them so as to secure a sweet flavor. Whatever kind is used for this purpose one condition should nev er be overlooked; it should be perfectly dry, or else it will be liable to impart a bitter taste to the meat Dry corn cobs, and some dry sweet hay aro superior to any other agents that wc have seen employed for smoking beef and hams. Mutton hams may be prepared in the same manner as those of pork, and they are exceedingly palatable when the meat is good and care exercised to smoke them slowly." Attempt to Commit Suicide.?Joseph B. Sapp, confined in the Morgantown jail, for the mur der of liis wife, attempted to cut his throat with a case knife, a few days since. He succeeded in making a ghastly wound in his ncck, which was sewed up and dressed without material in jury to the desperate man. BUSINESS NOTICES. Another Letter.?The Captain of the steain boat Creole writes as follows: dit. A. S. Todd.?Dear Sir: I have for a number of years, used ill my family, your Anti bilious or Liver Pills, and have found them tru ly valuable. I use but little other medicine in my family. I find them safe, easy in their ope ration and they cleanse the stomach and bowles, better than any other physic that I have any knowledge of. I have also used them for many years on my boat, on the Ohio and Mississippi l ivers. I have found them to suit the bilious deseases of the South, better than any other medicine I have ever used.
