The next and last ball on the pro-
gramme so far fer this season will be
that of the fire department on the
night of the 22d. If you wish to en-
joy yourself be sure and attend for
that it will be a success there can be
no doubt as the fire boys intend to
get everything up in good shape and
already have the money on hand to
do it with. The nominal price ol
the tickets—one dollar—shows that
it is not a money makingseheme,but
that the boys mean business.
About two or three years ago Mr.
F. C. J. Lebermann missed a barrel
of fine imported French brandy.
When he moved to his present quar-
ters in the News building, an 0I5J
barrel supposed to be filled with
water, was placed on the sidewalk
in front of his establishment. The
barrel has been there for over a year.
On Monday Mr. Lebermann having
occasion to move the barrel, he no-
ticed that the bung hole was sealed
with a tin covering. This he thought
was rather strange, and determined
to open the barrel and examine the
contents. To his great surprise he
discovered that the barrel was filled
with the choicest vintage—old
French brandy. It was the missing
barrel 1
The brandy is very' valuable. It
is worth, perhaps, $200. That the
barrel should remain on the side-
walk for so long a time without any-
one suspecting its contents, is some-
thing remarkable. Lebermann, on
the strength ot his good luck, will,
we presume, feel willing to set’em
up to his friends.

We regret exceedingly to learn of
the death of Col. John R. Diamond,
j ol Whitesboro, which took place on
the 9th inst. Tiie Col. had been
sick about six weeks, of infiamation
of the bowels. Col. Diamond was
about 57 years of age. He filled the
responsible office of justice of the
peace a number of years and at the
time of his death was mayor of
Whitesboro, and one of the most effi
cient presiding officers the town ever
had. He was also a member of the
Odd Fellow and Masonic lodges,
and was. a charter member of the
Whitesboro lodge, A. F. <S: A. M.,
which was organized in 1S60. He
was also a member of the M. E.
Church, South. In the death ot Col.
Diamond Whitesboro lost one ol its
most public spirited citizens. We
knew him well and can bear testimo-
ny to his many noble qualities of
head and heart. He was one of the
old citizens of the county, having
located at Whitesboro a quarter of a
century ago.
John Tenny and John Myers, two
young men who arrived in this city

money and some min r articles,
were taken to the county jail Mon-
day by marshal Hardwich. They
had their examination before mayor
Beck Saturday and were held in a
bond of one hundred dollars each for
their appearance in February. They
were, however, unable to give the
same.
Rev. H. H. Hall preached in the
M. E. Church Sunday evening to a
very large congregation. It was
perhaps the gentleman’s Inst uff011 in
our city. He was listened to with
great interest by the congregation.
Mr. Hall leaves for Oregon in a few
days, to engage in missionary work.
A morning or two since, a butch-
er visited a gentleman living on west
Main street, tor the purpose of pur-
chasing a cow. He told tlie owner
that he would pay him liberally if
he would bring the cow to bis
slaughter pen in the suburbs of the
city.
The cow had heretofore borne a
good character and was considered
a meek, docile cow, in fact one of
those pastoral cows that poets love
so much to dwell on while describ-
ing a country barnyard scene. But
this cow like some men we know ot,
was a devil incarnate when aicused,
as the sequel of this narrative will
show.
In the evening the owner ot the
cow, together with another rnan,
concluded they would take the cow
to the butcher. Whether or no the
cow had some idea of the fate in
store for her we know not, but as
the two men approached with a
rope, she raised her head, elevated
her tail, commenced to paw the
earth and bellowed terribly.
One of the men very dexterously
threw the rope with a slip-noose at
the end, over the cow’s head. Then
they both look hold of the end ot the
rope and endeavored to walk away
with the cow. But the cow was im-
movable. They then commenced to
belabor the poor animal with fence
rails. This was more than the cow
would stand. She lowered her head
and made a furiouscharge. Picking
up one man on her horns she threw
him several feet into the air. After
this performance she charged the
other man who took to his heels, es-
caping over a fence. In the mean-
time the man first tossed had recov-
ered from his surprise, and got on a
horse that was tied to a tree. The
cow was now thoroughly aroused,
and was eager for the frav. She re-
turned to the charge, plunging her
horns into the horses’s side, making
a frightful gash, the poor animai dy-
ing the next morning from the effect
of the wound. After putting the
manaiid horse to flight, she attacked
a dog goring it to death.
One adventursome spirit who said
“that he was not afraid of any d—n
cow that ever walked on four legs,"
took off his coat after the manner of
the Spanish bull figher, and advanced
on the cow but when she was within
a few yards of him his spirit failed
and tie “lit out,” the cow in hot pur-
suit. Very luckily a line" was m ar at
hand; over this the man bounded,
the cow leaving the impression
of her horns on the seat ot his pants.
Several times the cow charged the
fence, tearing it down lor several
feet. This ended the battle. 1 he
men were satisfied and returned to
their respective homes.
The next morning the cow was
discovered browsing in the woods as
serene as if nothingliadevcrhappen-
ed to disturb her equanimity, she
even permuted the owner to saw off
the ends of her terrible horns.
