his book, from which it is said he will realize
the snug sum of SIOO,OOO.
A society has been formed in Philadelphia

Coon hunters were cutting down a tree at

Avery old man voted three times at Wash

voted.

The export of iron ore from Spain in the
first half of this year was ICO per cent, more
than in 18G9. Spain is now full of com
mercial Englishmen, who run the railroads,
mines, and vineyards. The Spaniards are not
very fond of these Britons, but can't get
along without them. Nearly every engine
is Spain hails from Manchester or Birming
ham.
Lemuel McGee, on his way to work in
Vicksburg, said to his companions : “ I'm
dry, and I ain’t got a cent; but I’m going to
have some whisk}' if I die for it.” He led
them into Samuel Hawthorne’s saloon, where
they had the drinks, and McGee announced
that he couldn’t pay. Then he did “ die for
it.” Hawthorne killed him at once with a
pistol.
Jim Lyon, who was killed in a bar-room
fight at Milliard, Nebraska, was found to be
clad in a complete though penetrable suit of
armor. Shields for his back and front were
made of heavy leather, padded with an inch
of cotton bating, and suspended under his
clothing by straps over his shoulders. This
protection had long given him the courage to
figure as a bully.
Jack Rafferty made a wager that he could
drink without paying in every saloon on
Spring street, Jeffersonville, Ind. He got
safely into and out of seven places, but in
the eight, when he said, “ Hand it up,” the
bar-tender gave him a dreadful whipping.
There wore six more bars to cover, and he
struggled on ; but his appearance was now
against him, and at the eleventh his skull
was fractured with a club; so he lost the bet.
Major Thomas L. Butler died at 91, in
Louisville, a few’ days ago. llis fateer and
four uncles distinguished themselves in the
Revolution. Washington one gave this toast
at. a dinner: “The Butlers and their five
sons,” and Lafa\ r ette wrote in a letter:
“ When I wanted a thing well done I order
ed a Butler to do it.” Members of the fam
ily moved to Kentucky, and became of social
consequence there.
Captain Eads will sail from New Orleans
for Mexico on November 4, accompanied by
a party of engineers, who will examine tiie
Isthmus of Tehuantepec, in order to verify
the Captain's ideas as to its adaptability to
the purpose of a ship railway. Captain
Eads will, at the same time, endeavor to se
cure government sanction for his proposed
survey, and to ascertain what the Mexican
Congress will be willing to do if he decides
to make the railway.
Within the week before the last mail left
there were no less than six persons in civilized
England who had murdered their wives. And
on the other hand we hear of a devoted wife
hurling alighted paraffine lamp at her husband,
disabling him with the blow, pouring the in
llammuble oil all over his person, and setting
him completely in flames. Another wife had
struck a husband—whose only fault was that
he was 77 years old—with a brass candlestick
on the head, killing him at once.
An intelligent dog had for a long time been
-sent every morning to a butcher shop at Logan,
Ohio, to buy meat for himself, lie always
brought a tive-eent piece in his mouth, and
laid it down on the block. One day he
deposited a dollar instead, and wagged his
tail with unwonted vigor, as though expecting
a proportionately larger chunk of meat. An
investigation proved that, his master having
gone away, he had broken ir.to the money
drawer and helped himself to a coin.
For some time past a question of thrilling
interest to the Bavarian bar has occupied the
attention of the judicial authorities at Munich.
It is this : May a barrister wear colored
trousers in court, or must they be black ?
This point was raised several weeks ago by a
Bavarian Judge, who, perceiving the lower
limbs of an advocate then addressing him to
be encased in garments of tender tone, re
proved him severely. The barrister treated
these admonitions with scorn. Both parties
to the dispute laid their arguments before a
Court ol Appeal, which has been deliberating
on them ever since. Meanwhile the well
known Munich counsel, Dr. llelbling, has
just been solemnly warned by another Judge
tlmt if he attempts to defend his clients Tn
colored trousers it will he the worse for him.
