A Collision Between Union and NonUnion Sailors, At half past sir o'clock last evening occurred the first trouble of the season between union and non-union sailors.
Three of the latter shipped oll the schooner George Sherman which was to have left last evening for Black River, and several union sailors appeared and ordered the men off the schoouer and when they Ceached the dock assaulted them.

The Fourteenth could not have a better representative in the Council than George R. Canfield, and "Billy" Monroe will make a valuable member of the School Board.

It is said that the dozen musicians who compose this band know nothing of the science or theory of music.
If this is true they must play by inspiration. They enter into their playing with remarkable fervor. The audience was largely composed of lungarians resident in this city, who were aroused to 3. high pitch of enthusiasm by their national music, applauding and cheering right lustily. The cymbalum playing was a novel and altogether charming feature of the concert.

In his prime he was active in military affairs and at the beginning of the war shouldered his musket and saw some service in the ranks.

One of the Berner jurymen, L. A. Phillips, says there was none of the jury who thought the prisoner should hang. The confession was extorted from him, which, according to the opinion of such an eminent jurist as Judge Thurman, should under 110 circumstances be admitted in evidence and should not be given the least weight in considering the merits of the case. Thillips says Berner made six confessions, in only one of which did he implicate himself.
