§mt\\ Simbct fetetie, ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTION $2 50. ¥aTURDAyTiOUNIXG, AUG. 29. 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. j®*Galveston is the place for game.
