RAVAGES OF AN ESCAPED RHINOCEROS. Chicago, August 16.—A letter from Red Bird, a small town in Mon roe county, 111* gives thrilling ac- ttoui.l oi the escape from its keeper? of the rhinoceros, belonging to Warner A Co’sfcuenagerie and cir cus on the occasion -of its being •brought into the ring for the first time. The showmen had prepared the animal lor exhibition by attach ing a ring in its nose by two strong wire ropes, and twenty-four men were deemed sufficient to control the 1 icast. It submitted quietly to being led from the cage, but on entering the arena suddenly threw up its bead, and, plunging madly to the right and left, broke loose from the men and dashed forward through the tents. Its first victim was John (lilleni, a eanvasinan, who was knocked down, and. the beast, tramp ling upon his breast, he was killed instantly. It next ran its nose against Mar tin Ready, another canvasman, striking him in the stomach, ripping out his bowels, and killing him on the spot. It then made a dash in the direction of the seats, which by tiiis time were cleared by the frigh tened spectators, and knocked down nearly all the seats on one sale of the tent, dislocating the shoulder of one of thC' employes and breaking the arm of a spectator. Running next into the menagerie tent, it upset Mr. Forepaugh’s den ot performing animals, after which it struck the centcr-poje with its head, bringing it down with a crash upon the cages of the tigar and leop ard. but not breaking them so as to allow the animals to escape. Dash ing into the museum tent, it broke all the curiosities, frightened all the people in the neighborhood, and rushed out through the canvas into the street, finally stopping \n a va cant house, the door of which stood open. Here the meu succeeded in capturing the animal and getting it mto a cage. The damage to the show was about $3,000! THE VEXATIONS OF A FRONT YARD. We have recently moved into a house that has a front yard. We have always lived in Rouses whose front yard was the street. Children " ill play in the yard whether there is a street running through it or not. After two or three oftthem had bare ly escaped being run over by the teams that insisted in running through our front yard, wife said she mu >t rent a house that hadn’t any street in it. So we did. But lord ! the children don’t make any account i" 1 it- They are in tire street as much l a ' ever, accumulating their daily | * apply of escapes. * " said the yard looked bare l Wu h°ut shrubs, and flowers, and ,,aes - I hinted a little grass would ^ 0: P it. too. She asked me if I knew ’diere I could get some, and I told * ler 1 knew a little grass widow on :he next street, if she would do. I r °t rented, followed by the rolling fin. One morning as I was going away, asked me to bring her a few annuals" when I came back. I Pondered what she wanted of annu- als as I rode down town in the street Car . but 1 am accustomed to a blind C'hedience to her requests, so when 1 went taotue at nigh I brought her *° me annuals. There were <4 Dr. Jayne's Medical Almacao,” I re- member, aud “The Odd Fellow’s Annual Offering,” and a “New Year's Address” for 1872, and the “Birth Day Gift,” and numerous annual addresses before agricultural associations that had accumulated on my hands. “Good gracious!” exclaimed Mrs. Boggs, (she never swears like that unless under great excitement,) “what have you brought me ?” “Annuals, Mrs. Boggs,” said I “You said you wanted some annuals, and here they are.” Then Mrs. Boggs burst out laugh ing and cried, “Why, you old fool you (we have been married twenty years, but Mrs. B. calls me pet names), the annnals I meant are flowers, such as verbenas, pansies, (Jaisies, morning glories, mignonette and the like, to set out in our front ya:’d.” Then she took aH the annu als I liad been at so much pains to collect arid set them out in the bapk yard among the,other rubbish. The next morning she asked me if I thought I could get some roses for the front yard. Told her I knew a man who had - got a lot of early rose potatoes, but it .wasn’t the right time a year for setting them out.— (I have an idea that the ground is much better employed in raising a potato than in raising flowers, unless it be a barrel of flower.) Wife said I hadn't a bit of taste. She then gave me a memoranda of the roses she wanted. I was busy all day, but just .as I was about taking a car for home, I thought of the roses. I re ferred to the memoranda, and found the following: “Get a few geraniums, iuchias, heliotrope, roses, bourbon, running rose, ‘Prairie Queen,’ golden tea plant, vines, English ivy, Wander ing Jew, seeds,.etc.” I studied it hard, but it was slightly incomprehensible. She had evidently got tilings mixed up.— However, I went to a florist and told him what I wanted. Said I, “Give me a few geraniums and a few she’s, and—” “A lew what ?” asked the flower 1 man, looking very puzzled. “A few she's,” said I, turning very red, I know, for I couldn’t tell for the life of me what my with want ed ot a few stie s about the place, as she never could live in the same house with another woman. As the florist looked more stag gered than ever, I handed him the memoranda, when be bursted out in a loud laugh. “Why, man,* cried he, “its fucJdas she wants 1” and then he roared again. “Well, whatever it is, give me a couple of yards of it, anyhow, lront and back yard, too.” You see I was mad. I got the things the memoranda seemed to call for at various places, and went home. “Here, M rsT Boggs, are the things for your front .yard,” said I testily. “Why, what is this ?” she cried, as I thrust a two-gallon jug upon her, among other things. “Bonibon, my deafc, I found it on the memoranda. 'Pretty thing to set out in the front yard, though.— How long do you s'pose it’ll stay there with the neighbors we’ve got ?” “Boggs, you arc an infernal—; that memorandum was a ‘Bourbon Rose.’ But what is this nasty little book ?” holding up a dime novel with a highly colored title-page, repre senting a gorgeous squaw on a fiery and untamed mustang. “That ? Why you ordered it, didn't you ? That is ‘Running Rose: or the Prairie Queen,’ one of Beadle's you know.” My wife carried it at arm’s length and threw it into the stove. Then she *ook the jag of Bourbon and emptied it into the back gutter.— While she was gqpe, I concealed Alexander Dumas* “Wandering Jew,” fthich I also had purchased, tor I Iregau to see that I had made a terrible blunder in filliug that order. I have since ascertained that “Wan dering Jew” is the nqme of a vine, but how was I expected to know all about it ?—Fat Contributor's Satur day Night. THE SOLDIER AND THE PACK OF CARDS. . A private soldier by the r.ame of Richard Lee, was taken before the magistrate of Glasgow for playing cards during divine service. The Account is given in the English Journal. A sergeant commanded the soldiers at the church, aud when the Parson read the prayers he took his text. Those who had a Bible took it out, but the soldier had neither Bible nor common Prayer Book, but pulling out a pack of catds, h^spread them out before him. He first look ed at one and then at another. The sergeant of the command saw him and said: “Richard, pnt up the cards; this is no place for them.” “Never mind that,’ said Richard, When the service was over the Constable took Richard prisoner and cairied him before the Mayor. “Wfiat. have you brought this sol dier here for ?” ‘For playing cards in church.” “Well, soldier, what have you got to Say for yourself?” ‘Much sir, I hope.’ ‘Very good, if not, I will punish you more than ever a man was pun ished.’ *1 have been,’ said the soldier, about six weeks on the march,’ have neither Bible nor common Praygy Book. I have nothing out a pack of cards, and I hope to satis fy your lordship with the purity of niv intentions.’ Then, spreading the cards before the Mayor, he began with the ace: ‘When I see the acc, it reminds me that there is but'one God. •. ‘When I see the deuce, it reminds me of the Fattier and Son. ‘When I see the tray, it reminds me of the’ gather, Son, and Holy Ghost. ‘When I see the four, it reminds me of the .four Evangelists that preacltcd—Mathew, Mark. Luke,- and John. ‘When I see the five, it reminds me of the wise virgins that trimmed tlreir lamps—there were ten-, .five were shut out. ‘Wjien I see the six,- it reminds me that in six days the .Lord made Heaven and egrta.’ ‘When I sec the seven, it reminds me that on the seventh day God rested from the great work he had made and hallowed it. ‘When I see the eight, it reminds me of the eight, righteous persons that were saved, when God destroy ed the world—Noah and his wife, his three sons and their Wives.’ ‘When I see the nine, it reminds me of the nine fopers that were cleansed by our Saviour; there were nine out of the ten who never return ed thanks. • ‘When I see the ten, it reminds me nf the ten commanrimenta which which God handed down to Moses on the tables of stone. When I see the king, it reminds me of the Great King of Ileavcn, which is God Almighty. ‘When I see the queen, it reminds me of the Queen of Sheba* whovisit ed Solomon, for she was as wise a woman as he was a man. She brought with her fifty girls and fifty boys, all dressed in boys apparel, for King Solomon sent for wa&r for them to wash; the girls washed to the elbows and the boys to the wrist, so King Solomon told by this. ‘W,’ said fire Mayor, ‘you have given a description of all the cards in the pack except one. What is that?’ The Knave,’ said the Mayor. I will give your honor a descrip tion ot that, too, if you will not be angry.’ ‘I will not,’ said the Mayor. If youvlo not term me to be the Knave.’ ‘Well,’ said the soldier, -the great est, knave that I know of is the Con stable that brought me here.’ ‘I do not know,’ said the Mayor, ‘if he is the greatest knave, but I believe he is the greatest fool.’ ‘When I count flow many spots in a pack of cards, I find three hundred and sixty-five—as many as there are days in a year ‘When I count the number of cards in a pack I find there are fifty-two —the number of weeks in a year, and I find four suits—the number of weeks in *a month. ‘I find there are twelve picture cards in a pack representing the number of months in a year. ‘And on counting the tricks I fir.d thirteen—the number of weeks in a quarter. So you see, sir, a pack of cards serves lor a bible. Almanac and a Prayer Book,—This will teH you all about a pack of cards/ TT-T?, NUMBER 63 Is. You Wifi march Upon their gar rison with equal step. When suf ficiently near their posts you will fire upon them. The Prussians will reply. You continue to advance and fire. When one falls the other may turn upon his heels, and his re treat shall be covered by one of my companies/’ “In this way,” concluded the com mandant, “the blood which yon both demand will be spilled with profit and glory, and he who comes back will do so without regret, without the remorse of having killed or \vpunded, with his own hands, a Frenchman, at a time when France needs all her defending, and all her children. If you both fall who shall say that you are cowards ? I may also add that I thus give you an ex cellent opportunity for puttiqg a couple of Germans out of the way, a Service that will procure for you a good recommendation for reward and promotion.” The matter was arranged as the commandant ’had dictated. At twenty paces from the walls of Mai maison* one of the adversaries was wounded, staggered and tell. The other rqn to him, raised him up, and carried him away on his shoulders amid a regular hailstorm of balls— both, thenceforth, entitled to the reatest honor and respect from the whole regiment. THE HAPPIEST MAN YET. George C. Harding, of Che St. Louis Democrat, who has recently given an account of a visit to a com mune settlement m ♦Dallas county, Missouri, tells about meeting with a man ont there who must*certainly be the happiest mortal alive: Strange as it may seem, too, he is an euitor. Says Harding: Mr. A. W. Carson publishes the ediinty paper, which is called the Reflex. Carson is better contented and more philosophic than any other pi inter I ever saw. He sets his own type, writes his own editorials, uses a Chicago inside, has plenty to cat, digests bis food well, sleeps sound, and tranquilly looks ou the scramble in wmeu tiio worm is erigugcu, witfi a profane! indifference as to whether school keeps or not. He never duns a subscriber, as his list is too small to incur any useless risk of losing one. He never asks a man to sub scribe, for fear of increasing the amount of press work he has to do. He has no ambition for .office, be cause he expects to die an honest man; he don’t want to get rich, be cause it is so harrasing to take care of a large property, and so tight a squeeze for a humped camel to pass through the optic of a cambric needle. So “Kit,” as he is playfully called by tbe Buffalonians, witfi whom he is a great favorite, goes in the even tenor of his way, observing*a majori ty of the Ten Commandments, print ing his paper regularly, reaping his annual spring harvest of-stud horse bills, and enjoying life in a sensible and rational manner. A NOYEL DUEL. ' Among the reminiscenes told of the Franco-Prussian war is the ac count of a curious duel between two subordinate officers of the French army. “You intend to fight a duel, eh ?” asked the commandarft. “Yes, Colonel. Words have passed which can only bewiped out with blood. We don't want to pass lor cowards.” Very well,.you shaH fight, but it must be in this way: Take your car bines, place yourselves on a line facing the mansionjwhere the enemy NANCY WAS WILLING BUT JOSH WAS BASHFUL. A correspondent of the Herald, from Ashtabula, tells the following story: . Ou a farm not many miles from Ashtabula there resided until recent ly a brown-haired, blue-eyed, fair- complexioned, buxom country maid en, who would have been happy as the day is long but for tbe fact that Josiah , a bashful country lad, the owner of a large farm and a little colored moustache, the admira tion of the girls and the envy of the boys for miles around, had been per sistently courting her at the pater nal mansion for two years, but could never be brought to propose. Y et Josh wanted the girl as bad, if not worse, than the girl wanted him; and he was always on the point ot saying something, but never yet had it got to this expectant listener’s ears.At length, at the end of two years, Mary Ann got so excited that she could hardly wipe her mother’s dishes, while Josh would stop and lean upon his hoe in the corn-field and think to himself. ‘^V hy ami such a born fool ? I really think she would have me if I had only gumption enough to ask her.” With this he resolved to take her to ride that very day, anil have a set tlement once for all. At first he thought he would hire a livery rig and go in style, but the expenses de terred him. “Darned if dads shay and our nag won’t d6> she needn’t have me.” So said Josh: as he threw down hishoe, put on his coat and started to the house to hitch up old “Nanny” and get biasweetheart. The chaise which had done service for many centuries, was drawn obt, and Josiah, arranged in ruffled shirt-front, scarlet necktie, dark-blue vest and white linen pants, with swallow-tailed coat and stove-pipe hat, the colored moustache displayed to the best advantage, stepped in behind his fiery steed and drove for his Dulcinea. She seemed coquet tish about “going out in the hot sun with a. man she wasn't engaged to, even if he had gone with her so long,” but she was pursuaded, and Josh helped her into the “shay.” With out a word of conversation between them, the first mile was passed. Mary Ann satiu one corner of the vehicle blushing, red as a peony, while Josiah was hesitating whether t,o pop the question now or wait awhile. A second half mile was passed and still silence reigned, broken only occasionally by the Crack of Josfah’s whip against “Nhn- cy’s” lean sides. They now eutereda forest bordering on Josiah’s domaifi, and out of the sunlight Josh grew bolder. He began to talk about his crops, and another mile was passed; still he eould not muster up sufficient courage to say the word which must decide his fate. For two long and weary _ years the lassie had also waited"and watched for- the ques tion, and now "“Barks was willing,” yet unable to. ask her. Outwardly sile^f, but inwardly fretting and fafniiig, this queen of country dam sels sa^revolviug in her mind how she could bring matters to a crisis. At length, as the hors? stopped for an instant, on the brow of the hill to nibble a bit of grass, she bethought herself <ff a plan. She begged her lover to go to a farm house not far distant and bring her a cup of cold water. Then the sly creature kept watch until he was half way back to the carriage with thp cup and par tially hidden from view by a clump of trees, when she-seized the .yhip and psnehed it ipto the horse’s ribs with such fbrcetHs almost to cause them to crack. “Nancy” gave a spring forward rushed madly down cup o* wateralid flying in hotspur- suit. At length he reached them, after a hard run. The “shay” lay broken and overturned in the middle of the road, the horse was quietly browsing the grass near by, while Nancy Ann her face as pale as marble an., her beautiful white dress soiled with dust, lay apparently insensible a short distance off. Josh’s attempts to rouse her were of no avail,' until, hecoming thoroughly frightened, he began to cover her cheeks with im passioned kisses, calling upon her to live for him.’ Then, rind -"not until then, did the beautiful thing deign to open her eyes, when, with tears gusing forth, she said: “Oh, Josh 1 if you'd only said it afore, this never would have happened.” rrnE profits of; carpet- bagging^ . The Dstroit(Michigaji)Free Press, on the authority of a correspondent at Napoleon, Ohio, gives the follow ing little biographical sketch of Gov. R. K. Scott, of South Carolina: Gov. Scott, of South Corolina, I suppose, is really a resident of this place yet. His family was still liv ing''here, when he was first eleeted Governor, and they have since spent about one-half o£ their time here. R. K. Scott came* to this country some twelve or fifteen .years ago, and located in the little one-horse town of Florida, in this (Henry) county, as a doctor, having, never graduated or attended medical lec tures, content to practice some five or six years. He was a candidate •for Justice of the Peace, and beaten in his township, while h.s party had a majority. Afterward he sought and obtained the nomination for County Treasurer, and was de feated. He then went info the dry goods.trade in his own town. Afterward be came to this town and engaged in the same business and failed totally, worth nothing. Then he went iuto the army as Lieu tenant-Colonel, and got to be Briga dier General, and came home, and through the influence of Jim Ashley, he got the appointment in command oft he Freedman's Bureau at Charles ton, South- Carolina, and was finally elected Gbvernor. Dr. Scott »-a very clever fellow, large and portly,, ami very go^d lookiug, but very ig norant,- yet tells a good story well. In writing letters, fails in ortho graphy very much. -1 presume he is now worth a million of dollars. He owns a large amount of real es tate in this^nd adjoining counties, and thousands of acres in the north ern part of Michigan, in company with other men, atffi he has made this money off the people of South Carolina. It is said'tbat Jay Cooke loaned him the money, and he - - South Caro lina bonds for forty-four percent, on the dollar, and then* as Gover nor, recommended that the interest on the State bonds be paid in gold semi-annually. The Legislature'passed the bill, and immediately the bonds were worth ninety cents on the dollar. 1 suppose hb had several thousand or hundred thousand dollars of these bonds, many of which Were fraudu lently issued and, had he not bought, off the Legislature last winter, he would have been impeached-as Gov ernor. Perhaps you saw some aC- coflntofit. When he came home from the war, before he got the appoint ment in South Carolia, I asked him how he stood politically, and he told me he should go with the party that he had the least to do with the ne groes. He is now building a fine brick house in this place; laid it "out into town lots, and has sold the most ot them. He has some very valua- blp.propcrty here, including a tavern- .stand. ‘M.B0LEY&G0,, Wholesale and Retail Dealers in PARLOR, PH AMBER and -V f iti'i'eHET*. • v> ■THE, 18# BROUGHTON ST., Corner Jtffema and Broughton, oppoaitc St. Andrews Hall, SAVANNAS’,............GEORGIA. ’ All* the latest Styles kept on hand, Mattrass renovating and repairing of fnrnir ture executed promptly and at reasonable Prices.mch21 ly - NEW Drs.
