Mr. Eliphalet Brown was a bachelor of thirty-five or thereabouts; one of those men who seem born to pass through the world alone. Save tliis peculiarity there was nothing to distinguish Mr. Brown from the multitude of other Browns who are born, grow up, and die in this world of ours. It chanced that Brown had occasion to visit the town, some fifty miles distant, on matters of business. It was his first visit to the place, and he proposed stop ping for a day in order to give himself an opportunity to look about. Walking leisurely through the streets, he was all at once accosted by a child of five, who ran up to him exclaiming : ‘ Father, 1 want you to buy me some candy. ‘ Father.’ Was it possible that he, a bachelor, was addressed by that title ? lie could not believe it. ‘ Who are you speaking to, my dear ?’ he inquired of the little girl. ‘ 1 spoke to you, father,’ said the little girl, surprised. ‘ lleally, thought Mr. Eliphalet Brown, ‘ this is embarrassing.’ ‘ 1 am not you father, my dear,’ he es sayed. ‘ What is your name ?’ The child laughed heartily, evidently thinking it a good joke. ‘ What a funny father you are,’ she said, 1 but you are going to buy some can dy ?’ ‘ Yes, yes, I’ll buy you a pound if you won’t call me father any more,’ said Mr. Brown, nervously. ’ The little girl clapped her hands with delight. The promise was all she remem bered. In coming out of the store, they en countered the child’s mother. 1 O mother,’ said the little girl, ‘just see how much candy father has bought me.’ ‘ ou shouldn’t have bought her so much at a time, Mr. Jones,’ said the la dy ; ‘I am afraid she will make herself sick. But bow did you happen to get back so quick 't 1 did not expect you till night. ‘ Jones—l—Madam,’ said the embar rassed Mr. Brown,’ ‘ it’s all a mistake ; I ain’t Jones at all. It isn’t my name. L am Eliphalet Brown, of W , and this is the first time I ever came to this city. ‘ Good heavens ! Mr. Jones, what has put this silly tale into your head ? You have concluded to change your name, have you ? Perhaps you have also con cluded to change your wife V Mrs. Jones’ tone was defiant, and thus tended to increase Mr. Brown’s embar rassment. But he must not leave matters in this position. ‘ 1 haven’t any wife, madam ; I never had any. On my word, as a gentleman, I never was married.’ ‘And do you intend to palm this story oil upon me ? said Mrs. Jones, with ex citement. ‘lf you arc not married, I’d like to know who I am ?’ ‘ I have no doubt you are a most re spectable lady,’ said Mr. Brown, and I .conjecture, from what you have said, that your name is Jones; but my name is Brown, madam, and always was.’ ‘ Melinda,’ said her mother, suddenly taking the child by the arm and leading her up to Mr. Brown, ‘ Melinda, who is this gentleman V 1 \V hy, that’s father !’ was the child’s immediate reply, as she confidently placed her hand in his. ‘You hear that, Mr. Jones, do you ? You hear what that innocent child says, and yet you have the unblushing impu dence to deny that you are my husband. The voice of nature speaking through that child should overwhelm you. I’d like to know, if you are not her father, why you were buying the candy for her? i would like to have you answer this. But I pre sume you never saw her before in your life.’ ‘1 never did. On my honor, l never did. I told her I would give her the can dy if she would not call me father any more.’ ‘ You did, diil you ? Bribing our own child not to call you father? (), Mr. Jones, this is infamous ! Do you intend to desert me, sir, and leave me to the cold charities of tin; world ? and this is your first step !’ Mrs. Jones was so overcome, that with out any warning, she fell back upon the sidewalk in a fainting fit. Instantly a number of persons ran to her assistance. ‘ Is your wife subject to fainting in this way?’ asked the first comer of Brown. ‘ I don’t known. She isn’t my wife. I don’t know anything about her.’ ‘ Why, it’s Mrs. Jones, ain’t it?’ ‘ Yes, but I am not Mr. Jones.’ ‘Sir,’ said the first speaker, sternly, ‘it is no time to jest. I trust you are not the cause of the excitement which must, have caused your wife’s fainting fit. You had better call a coach and carry her home directly.’ Poor Brown was dumb-founded. ‘ l wonder,’ thought he, ‘ whether it is possible that l am Mr. Jones without I knowing it ? Perhaps lam really Jones, COLUMBUS, GA.. SEPTEMBER ‘24, 185(5. and have gone crazy, in consequence of which 1 fancy my name Brown. And yet I don’t think I’m Jones. In spite of all, 1 will insist that my name is Brown.’ ‘ oil, sir, what are you waiting for? It is necessary that your wife should be removed at one®. Will you order a car riage ?’ Brown saw it was no use to protract the discussion hy a denial. He, therefore, without contesting the point, ordered a hackney coach on the spot. ‘ Help your wife in, Mr. -Jones.’ Mr. Brown accordingly lent an arm to Mrs. Jones, who had somewhat recovered, and was about to close the door upon her. ‘ W hat, are you not going yourself?* ‘ Why no ; why should 1 ?’ ‘ \ our wife should not go alone ; she has hardly recovered.’ Brown gave a despairing glance at the crowd around him, and deeming it use less to make opposition where so many seemed thoroughly convinced that lie was Mr. Jonas, followed the lady in. ‘ Where shall 1 drive ?’ asked the dri ver. ‘I - 1 don t know !’ said Mr, Brown. ‘ Where would you like to be carried ?’ 1 Home, of course.’ murmured Mrs. Jones. ‘ Where is that ?’ asked the driver. ‘ 1 do not know,’ said Mr. Brown. • Ino. 1.9 II street,’ said the gen tleman already introduced, glancing con temptuously at Brown. ‘Will you help me out, Mr. Jones?’ said the lady. ‘ I have not fully recov ered from the fainting fit into wliicli you cruelly drove me.’ ‘Are you quite sure that lam Mr. Jones ?’ asked Brown with anxiety. ‘ Os course,’ said Mrs. Jones. ‘ 1 lien, said lie, resignedly, ‘ I suppose 1 am. But if you will believe me, ! was thoroughly convinced this morning that my name was Brown, and to tell the truth, 1 haven’t any recollection of (his house. ’ Brown helped Mrs. Jones into the par lor ; but, good heavens ! conceive the as tonishment of all when a man was dis covered, seated in an arm chair, who was the very personation of Mr. Brown, in form, features, and every other respect. ‘ Gracious !’ ejaculated the lady, ‘which —which is my husband ?’ An explanation was given, the mystery cleared up, and Mr. Brown’s pardon sought for the embarrassing mistake. It was freely accorded by Mr. Brown, who was quite delighted to think that, after all, he was not Mr. Jones, with a wife and child to boot. Mr. Brown has not since visited the place where this ‘ Comedy of Errors’ hap pened. Ifo is afraid of losing his iden tity. A Flan Story. Some days ago the captain of a ship, at anchor outside the Pass, threw overboard a shark hook, baited, not expecting in the least, as the captain himself ftfjys, to catch anything of the fish tribe. There was booked, however, a shark of the spotted kind, and, as it afterwards proved, a reg ular “ man-eater.” He had to be har pooned before his capture could be effect ed. His size and weight may be imag ined, from the fact'that it took eleven men to hoist him in, with a double lift on the main yard. The monster measured seventeen feet, ten inches in length, from tail to snout, and nine feet in circumference, lie had seven rows of teeth, three of the rows be ing almost hidden in the upper gums, llis liver exactly filled up a beef barael. In his paunch was found the body of a man in a half decomposed state. So far as could bo judged, the corpse was that of a well-dressed man, of medium size— shirt white with pearl buttons, coarse silk undershirt, cotton socks, and shoes, nearly | new, of the Congress gaiter kind. The shark had also in his stomach sev eral pieces of old canvas, such as are used by vessels on their rigging. The jaw bune of this sea pirate bus I been brought up to the city. It is large enough to take in a sugar barrel.— Pica i/vnn. — Bhh IK of s Jut* Spring*. A lady brought a child to a physician to consult him about its precious health. Among other things she inquired if he did not think the springs would be useful ? ‘ Certainly, madam,’ replied the doctor, as he eyed the child, and then took a large pinch of snuff. ‘ I haven’t the least hes itation in recommending the springs— and the sooner you apply the remedy the bettor.’ ‘ You really think it would be good for the dear little thing, don’t you ?’ ‘ Upon my word it’s the best remedy 1 know of.’ ‘ What springs do you recommend, doc tor ?’ ‘ Any will do, madam, where you can get plenty of map and water.’ ‘ I say, friend, is there anything to shoot about here ?’ asked a Kentucky sports man of a little boy. Boy —‘ Wal, nothing just about here, stranger, but the schoolmaster is down the hill, yonder—you mought pop him I over.’ C ARRIAGESMCARRI AGES!!
