LARGEST CITY CIRCULATION.
SATURDAY MORNING May 5, 1868
SCISSORS.
—Wigfall (of Texas) and wife, are in
London, where they are received with
great honor by the aristocratic sympa
thizers with the South.
—The London Times announces that
a marriage is about to take place be
tween the Princess Many of Cambridge
and the Prince DeTeck, son of the Duke
Alexander, of Wurtemberg.
—The rivers in the West continue
high. The upper Mississippi and its
tributaries were still rising at last ad
vices. The denizens of the great valley
see nothing but disaster before them,
unless the flood should speedily abate.
—An old bachelor having been
laughed at by a bevy of pretty girls,
told them they were small potatoes.
“We may be small potatoes,” replied
one of them, “but we are sweet ones.”
—The entire population of New York
City, including its suburbs, is 1,458,388.
Os this number 859,980 are natives, and
307,403 foreigners—four aliens to every
six native born. There are 208,700
Irish, 109,977 Germans, 27,049 English,
8049 French, 9207 Scotch, and 1771
Swiss.
—The prepartions on board the Great
Eastern for receiving the new Atlantic
cable have been completed, and the
stowing away of the cable in the tanks
commenced on- Saturday. At the end
of June or the beginning of July the
Great Eastern will commence lying the
cable.
—The eccentric Lord Holland, of the
reign of William 111., used to give his
horses a weekly concert in a covered
gallery specially erected for the purpose.
He maintained that it cheered their
hearts, and improved their temper, and
an eye-witness says that “they seemed
delighted therewith.”
—A young lady from the East has
brought suit against a prominent St-
Louis merchant for a breach of promise;
$25,000 is the sum required to heal the
pectoral fracture. [A youthful member
of the feminine persuasion says that any
gentleman is welcome to break her heart
at that figure.
—A boy brought an egg to school
lately in Linn county, lowa. The
teacher broke it over the childs head,
and told him to go home and have his
mother wash his hair. Boy did so.
Mother came with a club, hit the teacher
with it over the head, and then closed
one eye with her first.
—The misery of being called upon
suddenly to make an extempore speech
was once got over by a noted English
mathematician, who delivered himself
in this fahsion : “Gentlemen, a morbid
desire for originality prevents me from
saying, ‘ This is the proudest moment of
my life,’ and it does not occur to me to
say anything else.”
—Along the line of the Nashville and
Decatur Rail Road, between Columbia
and Pulaski, during a thunder storm late
ly, a half mile of the telegraph wire was
melted, and divided into small frag
ments, irregular in shape, and many of
them no larger than a buckshot or a
small rifle ball. The glass insulators
were fused, and the poles were shivered
into fragments.
—A wide-awake minister, who found
his congregation going to sleep one
Sunday before he had fairly commenced,
suddenly stopped and exclaimed :
“Brethren, this isn’t fair ; it isn’t giving
a man a half a chance. Wait till I get
ajong a piece, and then if it aint worth
listening to, go to sleep ; but don’t go
before I get commenced ; give a man a
chance.”
—When extraordinary exertion and
wakefulness are needed for some emer
gency, strong coffee is the best antidote
against drowsiness, as the foes of Fred
erick the great once discovered to their
cost, when fragrant Mocho had enabled
him to pass three days and nights with
out sleeping. This pecular property
makes it one of the greatest use to all
whose pursuits require close and yet
vividly active attention, to those in fine,
who, to use our home-bred expression,
are anxious to keep “wide-awake.”
Hence, the French have justly called it
the “intellectual drink,” and students
everywhere will cordially accept the
phrase.
