!)—The Pope’s rheviiaat- rexcruciatiog. 5nge cars!” is what a boot black said to a Chicago man the other day, when he had finished one of his bro^ gans. Why do the newspapers speak of '“bouncing babie3?” We’ve seen a good many babie9 fall and not one of them bounced much to speak of— thev’re too soft. It is said that Mary E. Tillotson, the dress reformer, has written a poem en titled: “Shorten my Skirts. Mother- Shorten Your Own.” Shorten to talk so to her mother. An eccentric clergyman lately said in one of his sermons, that about the commonest proof we have that man is made of clay, is the bricks so often found'in his hat. A witness on the stand, in reply to a question as to what the chaiacter of Mr. was for truth and veracity, said: “Well, I should say that he hand les the truth very carelessly.” He gave her a hearty smack. “Don’t kiss like that,” she said. “I want a street, tender pressure when I’m kissed. I don’t want any fire-works.” He left out the explosion in the next act. Washington, Dec. 18.—Blaine has decided to seek balm at the Hot Springs Arkansas. He leaevs to-morrow iD company with Senators Chaffee and Dorsey, ex-Secretary Robeson and Con gressman Hale. A Lowell man keeps up his wood pile by making bets that his wife can saw and split two cords in twelve hours. The poor woman is so vain of her hus band’s praise that she never can be brought to see the speculation in it. Will the capitalists and manufactur ers listen to the demand that is rising up in one long, irrepressible wail all over free America, for a cheap grade of Christmas presents, adapted to the wants of young men on salaries..— Hawleyc. A sixteen-year-old girl out on Colum bus street has a button string four yards long, containing 1,973 buttons. And that girl’s father fastens hiB suspenders on his trousers with a shawl-pin, a piece of twine and a sharp stick.- Haiclcjc. Proverbs from the Talmud. The ass complains of the cold even in July. A single light answers as well for a hundred men as for one. Teach thy tongue to say, “I do not know.” Tby friend has a friend, and thy friend’s friend has a friend; be dis creet. Deal with those who are fortunate. The doctor who prescribes gratuitous ly gives a worthless prescription. If a word spoken in its time is worth one piece of money, silence in its time is worth two. The wine belongs to the master, but- the waiter receives the thanks. The soldiers fight and the Kings are heroes. Make but one sale, and thou art called a merchant. If the fox is king, bow before him. The rivalry of scholars advances TUTT>S PILLS! A Noted Divine Says They are Worth Their Weight in Gold. BEAD WHAT HE SAYS' Do. Tott—Dear Sir: For ten years I hare been a martyr to Dyspepsia. Constipation and Pil-s Last springyoor pills were recommended to me; I used them (but with little faith). I am now a well man* have good appetite, digestion perfect, regular stools, piles gone, and 1 have gaineo forty pounds solid fh ah. They a'e worth their weight in gold. Rev. R. L. SIMPSON, Louisville, K7. TUTT’S PILLS TINTS PULS CUBE DYSPEPSIA A maiden of twenty-five was lately throwing out some affected sneers at matrimony, when a grave friend in the company observed that “marriages were made in heaven.” “Can you tell me sir,” rejoined the sly nymph, “why they are so slow in coming down ?” Nashville, Dec. 18.—Hughes & Co.’s hardware establishment was partial ly burned. Cotton had been saturateu with coal oil and powder and placed in four different localities. Had the fin progressed as incendiaries intended near ly all the firemen would have been killed. London, Dec. IS.—Osman is alive The Pest says: Another Cabinet Coun cil will he held to-day. The serious as pect of foreign affairs engages the con stant attention of the Ministry. It is felt the time has arrived when moment ous questions may have to be consid ered.” A singular case of petrifaction is told by an engineer on the Union Pacific. The principal cross-ties, wnich have been laid for several years, are nearly all petrified, the number of miles being estimated at one hundred. So solid are the cross-ties that it is impossible to draw the spikes from them. Mothers should be very careful to see that their daughters are well wrap ped up while sitting out on the piazza to see “the satellites of Mars.” A coat sleeve, of conrse, is good as far as it goes, and, to tell the truth, it generally goes as far it can, but at best it can cover only about so much territory. An Englishman told an Irishman that porter was his mpat and drink, and soon after Pat found him, having be come too heavily loaded, lying in a ditch. After surveying him for some time, he exclaimed: “Arrah, my honey, you said it was meat and drink to you; by my soul, it’s a much better thing, for it’s washing and lodging too!” St. Johns, N. B., Dec. 18.—There was some excitement here, last evening owing to the arrest of Chari* s Chapman by De tective Bailie, of Georgia. Chapman registered at the Queen’s Hotel, Decem ber 3, informing the proprietor he was a detective seeking a Kuklux who com mitted depredations during the war. Detective Bailie says Chapman’s last op eration was a forgery for $15,000 in Geor gia. He will be examined to-day. The two United States Senators who ever served the longest terms, were both North Carolinians by birth—Benton, of Missouri, and King, of Alabama. The former served thirty, the latter, twenty- nine years. It is related, in reference to Mr. King’s extreme courtesy, that when he presided over the Senate the two Senators from Arkansas pronounced the name of their State differently, and that he punctiliously observed this difference. He invariably recognized one as “thegentlemanfrom Arkan-saw,” and the other as “the gentleman from Arkansas.” Constantinople, Dec. 18.—Errone ous interpretations having been g^yen to the circular of the Porte inviting mediation, it is officially explained that Turkey does not approach the powers as a vanquished State, since she still has two lines of defense which the Government believes she would be able to hold. The Porte, by its circular, de sires to intimate its willingness to con sider the proposals made by the Con stantinople Conference. As the war began owing to Turkey’s refusal to ad here to those proposals, the Porte thinkB it might be determined now on that basis. Washington, Dec. 18.—Commission er Williamson, of the General Land Of fice, has a report from Special Agent Hester, of Florida, that a writ of replevin has been issued from the United States Court for the possession of 900,000 feet of sawed lumber and 4,000 pine logs, cut from the public lands. Gov. George F. Drew, Lewis Bucki. James Parker and Lafayette Dickens are the defendants. Hester also reports suits instituted for the possession of several hundred bar rels of rosin and turpentine, and that warrants have been issued for the arrest of various parties, including Parker and Dickens above referred to. Several curious cases of mistaken identity have occurred in this city re cently. A son, for instance, indentified a body at-the Morgue as that of his father, who, however, made his appear ance-after the Coroner’s inquest had been held and as a prisoner was on the eve of being tried for his talking off. In another case the father of a family was met on the streets by one of his chil dren while his supposed remains were awaiting burial at his residence. In the courts another curious case came up yesterday. The accused was, fortuna tely, able to prove he was not criminal but ‘.'some other fellow,” and so saved himBelffrom the Penitentiary.—H. Herald The world is saved by the breath of school children. Even to rebuild the temple, the schools must not be closed. Blessed is the son who has studied with his father, and blessed the father who has instructed his son. Rabbi Eleazer said: “Who gives charity in secret is greater than Moses," Rab said : “Men should be careful lest they cause women to weep, for God counts their tears.” In cases of charity, where both men and women claim relief, the latter should be first assisted. If there should not be enough for both, the men Bhould cheerfully relinquish their claims. Rabbah said: “When one stands at the judgment seat of God these ques tions are asked: ‘Hast thou been hon est in all thy dealings? Hast thou set aside a portion of thy time for the study of the law ? Hast thou observed the first commandment? Hast thou in trouble still hoped and believed in God ? Hast thou spoken wisely ?’ ” A Resistless Magnet. Prof. Smyth was once lecturing on Natural Philosophy, and in the course of his experiments he introduced one of Carrington's most powerful magnets, with which he attracted a block of ii from a distance of two feet “Can any of you conceive a greater attractive power?” the lecturer damand ed. “I ken !” answered a voice from the audience. “Not a natural terrestial object!” “Yes, sir.” Tha professor challenged the man who had spoken to name the thing. Then up rose old Seth Wamlet. He was a genius in this way, and original, Said he: “I ken give ye the facts, and you can judge for yourself. When I were a young man there were a little piece natural magnet done up in kaliker and dimity, as was called Betsy Jane. She could draw me fourteen miles every Sunday. Shakes alive! it were just as natural as sliding down hill. Thar wan't no resistin’ her. That ere magnet o’ youm is pooty good, but tain’t a circumstance to the one that drawed me.” Washington, Dec. 16. The Supreme Court adjourns on Fri day for two weeks. Blaine, Hale, Dorsey and Robeson cer tainly left for Hot Springs, Ark. The President has pardoned Col. Jno. A. Joyce. He has served his term, and the pardon relieves him from the fine and restores him to citizenship. William Poor, who was slightly bitten by a small dog eight weeks ago, died of hydrophobia. Governor Hubbard telegraphs the Sec retary of War. confirming the surrender of the rangers and the shooting of How ard, Atkinson and McBride. Gov. Hub bard adds: “Ihe balance of the State troops are held as prisoners. These lat ter will doubtless share the same fate, un less rescued by the United States forces who were under your orders, marching to their relief. We have information of large bodies of Mexican citizens partici pating in this massacre.” A commission has issued for Wade, Collector of the Third Georgia District. When his bond for $50,000 is approved he will take possession of the office. Gen. Lazareff, who as commander of the right wing of the Russian army, opened the successful attack upon the fortifications at Kars, is an American by race, and a native of Shushi, where he was born Nov, 28,1820. When 19 years old he enlisted as a private in a infantry regiment. He has passed through every grade in rank, reaching that of Lieuten ant General in 1868, and besides receiv ing from the Czar every Russian decora tion in the latter’s power to grant, he was presented with a heavy gold and jeweled cimeter inscribed, “for courage.” His head has been cracked by a heavy stone, his left shoulder blade dislocated by a piece of shell, his neck pierced through by a bullet, while his body has been well tattooed by the implements of civilized destruction. It is said that Chinamen who have re sided in California, having learned to prefer wheat to rice, have on their return to their native land, increased the taste for and cultivation of wheat in China. They cultivate so much more closely than we, that forty bushels to the acre is about the lowest yield, and this pays well at 25 cents per bushel delivered at Hong Kong. Their sweep of country adapted to wheat exceeds that of the Pacific slope ten-fold, and their cost of labor seventy- five per cent. less. As a competitor of California China may very shortly become formidable. A recent advertisement contains the following startling information: “If the gentleman who keeps the shoe store with a red head will return the umbrella of a young lady with the ivory handle to slate-roofed grocer’s shop, he will hear of something to his advantage, as the same is the gift of a deceased mother, now no more, with the name engraved npon it.” An elderly darkey was inquiring of a'policeman if he knew anything of his son Pete. The policemkn replied that there was a young daikey in the lock up for breaking up a prayer-meeting with an ax-handle. “Dat’s him,” exclaimed the over joyed parent, “he told me he was gwine to‘muse hisself.’” A notorious French criminal named Hass, who had been sentenced to death for murder, has escaped the guillotine through a clerical blunder. In mak ing up the verdict the foreman wrote that a “margorite” of the jurors found him guilty. I would I were aschoolmarm, and in a schoolmarm’s band, with a small boy stretched across my knee, and a ruler in my hand. TUTI’S PILLS TUTT’S PULS CURE PILES.
