Woman’s Rights.
Mrs. Skinner observed: Miss Pres
dent, fellow wirnmea and male trash
generally —I am bore to-day for the
purpose of discussiug woman's rights,
re-cussing her wrongs, and cussing
the men. I believe the sexes were
created perfectly equal, with thewim
men a little more equal than the men.
I also believe that the world would to
day be happier if man had never exist
ed. Asa failure, man is a success,
and I bless my stars that my mother
was a woman. [Applause.] I not
only maintain these principles, but I
maintain a shiftless husband besides.
They say man was created first. Well,
suppose he was. Ain’t first experi
ments always failures ? If I was a
betting man, I would bet $2 they are.
The only decent thing about him was
a rib, and that went to make some
thing better. [Applause.] And then
they threw into our face about eating
an apple. I'll bet $5 that Adam boos
ted Eve up the tree, and only gave
her the core. And what did he do
when he was found out? Tiue to
his masculine instincts, ho sneaked
behind Eve’s Grecian bend, and said:
“’Twasn’t me; ’twas her.” and woman
had to father everything mean, and
mother it too. What we want is the
ballot, and the ballot we are bound to
have, if we have to let down our back
hair and swim in a sea of sauguinary
gore. [Sensation.]
A Teprihle Threat. —Talking of
prisons recalls a ouco celebrated char
acter, known to the oldest inhabitants
in bygone times as Old Jack Dade.
Ho was a representative of ono of the
classes of old Virginia gentlemen. He
called on President Tyler for an filoce
where ho would liavo the lenßt to do
at the highest salary. The President
appointed him warden of the Wash
ington Penitoutiary, preserved to his
tory by the execution of tho Lincoln
conspirators. Upon entering on his
official duties, after a joviftl evening
with tho President’s gay son, Warden
Dade had all tho prisoners assembled,
and thus addressed them:
“Gentlemen ! A pretty looking set
of gentlemen you are 1 Fellow-citi
zens! No; cursed if you are any fel
low-citizens of mine. Convicts! That’s
the word. As long as I am at tho
head of this institution and you do
right I’ll treat you kindly; but the
first man, recollect, that misbehaves
himself, I’ll turn him out, by Gad 1”
A Love Stoby. —“Phairest of the
phair,” sighed the lover, “pliancy my
pheelings when I phoresee the phear
ful consequences of our phleeiug
phrom your phather’s pbamily. Phew
phellows could have phaced the mu
sic with so much phortitude as I have;
and as phickle phortune rephases to
smile upon our love, I phind myself
phorced to phorego the pleasure of
becoming your husband. Phair Phran
ces, pharewell phorever.’
“Hold, Phrauklin, hold,” screamed
Phrances. I will phollow you phor
ever.”
But Phranklin phled, a fid loving
Phrances phainted.
A young mechanic saw an over
coat in a South street clothing store,
which,he thought he would be glad to
possess at a reasonable price.
“How much ?” he asked.
' “Twenty-one dollars,” was the an
swer. The usual haggling took place,
and the mechanic started to leave the
store.
“How much you gif? asked the
merchant.
“Three dollars.”
f “Take it, then. ’’ I shall shust be
ruin of myself. I only make two dol
lars on dat coat, so help me gracious.”
Keokuk lady, while engaged
in the pursuit of her domestic duties,
encountered a mouse in the flour bar
rel. ’Now, most ladies, under similar
circumstances, would have uttered a
few femine shrieks aud then sought
safety in the garret. But this one
possessed more than the ordinary de
gree of feminine courage. She sum
moned the hired-man and told him to
the shot-gun, call the bull dog,
and station himself at a convenient
distance. Then she climbed half way
up stairs and commenced to punch
the flour barrel vigorously w ith a pole.
Presently the mouse made its appear
ance and started across the floor. The
dog at once went in pursuit. The
man fired, and the dog dropped dead.
The lady fainted and fell down stairs,
and the hired man, thinking she was
killed, and fearing he would be arrest
ed for murder, disappeared, and has
not been seen since. The mouse es
caped.
