RtTSBTILLK.

Jan. 10.—A hotel sensation has been brewing all day that culminated to-night. About six months ago Porter «fc G&rtin, who were then proprietors of the Grand, disposed of their fixtures and lease to Levinston & Son, of Richmond, Indiana, To-day they again made a transfer to J. W. Anderson, owner of the building, claiming that Levinston & Son had failed to make the necessary payments, and that the contract was subject to cancellation. Levinston says that they can take the fixtures but that he will stick to the lease. There is trouble settling all around that is going to complicate matters seriously.

NEW AUJANT.

January 10.—The up-river ice did not reacbitbis city tintii to day, when it came pouring down on the awolleu current in dense masses, covering the river from shore to shore. The onlv damage sustained here was the sweeping away of a lot of oak logs belonging to Murray & Co., of the New Albany Ship yard. Loss about $200.

Two men, Jacob Pfoiffer mid William Weber, of Jeffersonvllle, came down over the falls at noon to-day on a cake of ice, landing in safety. The daring feat was performed on a'banter. The river is now open all the way out to the mouth, and navigation will"be resumed this week.

Lewis Tansel tried to pick a flght out of a man named Henry Miller, from Wisconsin, a cousin of the Wood bovs. He struck Miller with a club» or billy, and at the same time called to Leland to shoot. Leland instantly shot at Wm. Wood, and immediately after at John D. Wood. Upon this, John D. Wood phot Leland Tansel fatally. He (Wood), then came and gave himself up to the constable, who had a warrant for him.

Bishop Qlark, of Rhode Island, iu a Ledger article, emphasiaes'the value of these societies by describing Fortbridgo in 1870 and in 1880. This is Fortbridge as it was: "The houses bordering the main street are all enclosed by rail fences, picket fences, and dilapidated stone walls, with creaky turn-stiles and gates half unhinged, and drunken posts leaning against an old stump fpr support: patches of unshorn gru&s and weedy gravel, faggots of bark and wood and brush, fragments of ancient carts, and broken plows .and disabled harrows, heaps of mortar and stones, piles of bottles, and all other conceivable forms of rubbish dumped into the gutter. The barns and sheds and dwelling houses are all much of the same pattern and the same color, if they can be said to have any color at all cold, bare, dreary, with no piazzas, or porches or window hoods, or any other attempt at ornamentation." This is Fortbridgo as it is now Most of tho old houses reappear, but with broad piazzas, tasteful porches, and bay windows peeping out from the vines and tlowers with altered roofs and fancy chimneys and rich coloring. The ugly fences are gone, flowers bloom in front of all the houses, the streets are all reformed, the weeds and rubbish are seen there no more. Good, clean sidewalks have beon laid from one end of tho village to the other, and the roadway is so fine and smooth that even Mr. Bonner would not hesitate to drive the marvelous Rarus or any other of his swift-footed steeds through the town at any pace of which they might be capable. The barren common has been converted into a park, the duck ponds into romantic lakes, with a swan or two sailing about."

How a Man Stitches on a Button.

HE had never tried it before, but he was naturally a self-reliant man, and felt confident of his ability to do it. Moreover, his wife had gone to tlie country. Therefore, carof ully selecting from that lady's work-basket the thickest needle and stoutest thread, he resolutely set himself to the task. Spitting upon his fingers, he carefully rolled the end of the thread into a point, and then, closing one of his own optics, he attempted to fill up the needle's solitary eye but the thread either passed by one side or the other of the needle, or worked itself against the glittering steel, and refused to be persuaded. However, the thread suddenly bolted through the eye to the extent of an inch, and, fearing to lose this advantage, he quickly drew the ends together and united them with a knot about the st«e of a buckshot. The button was a trouper one, b'lt he liked the dimensions of its holes, and it was only going on the back of his shirt., ahyhow. As he passed the needle gently upward througn the linen, he felt a mingled pity and disdain for men bungling over such easy jobs a?»d as he let the button gracefully glide down the thread to lt» appointed place, he «aid to hiro«e!f that if ever he married in second time it should be for seme nobler reasoi than a dread of sewing on his own buttons. The first downward thrust had the same hapoy result, and holding the button down firmly with his thumb, be came up again with all that con* fidwnce which uniform success inspires* Perhaps the point of the needle did not enter to the bone, bat It seemed to him that it did, and his comment upon tlie efrctunstanoe was emphatic. But he was very ingenious, and the next time he would hold the button by one edge, and come up through the bole nearest the other. Of coarse he would. But the needle had an independent way of auto hol'-. .and it chose tl wie Where the thumb wae. Then ti*. nwdkt got «ttlky. It didn't care aKm'11 itoie*, anyhow, It it was going to beah'u«ed:.- iading them, and thebutton might hate been aa imperforate disc fcT all the j^jertares whMsit that needle con3d thencefwwarrf be made to discover, without Infinite poking and prodding, it alway* came Urc«igh wlwns st was least expected, and never when it

wanted. Still be persevered, and it was not until he finally diapered that he had stitched over the edge of the button sod had sewed it on the wrong sid* at the shirt that be utterly broke down. ijj
