C’atchisg a Mouse.—A Keokuk lady, while
engaged in tire pursuit of domestic duties, en
countered a mouse in the ftour barrel. Now roost
Indies under similar circumstances would have ut
tered a few feminine shrieks and then sought
safety iu the gerretr Put this one possessed more
than su ordinary degree of lernale courage. She
summoned the hired man and told him to get
the shot gun, call the bull dog, and station him
self at n convenient distance. Then she climbed
half way up the stairs and piouuded the flour bar
rel vigorously with a pole. The bull dog at once
went in j ursnit. The man fired and the dog fell
dead. The lady fainted and fell down stairs, and
the hired mau, thinking that she was killed and
fearing that he would be arrested for murder, lit
out aud lias not been seen since. The mouse es
caped.

Oj?e exceedingly warm day in Jane, a neighbor
met the old man, and remarked that it was very
hot. “ Yes,” said Joe, “It it wasn’t for one thing,
1 should say we were going to have a thaw.”
” What Is that?” inquired the bluid. “There’s
nothing frozen,” said Joe.
An uudecided fellow courted a lady for twenty
eight yeais, aud then married her. She turned
out a perfect virago, but died two years after the
Wedding. •’Now,” said he, In a self-eongratnla
liug tone, “see what I have escaped by a long
courtship.

Trrx St. Louis Democrat is thus severe on the
press: “Every chucklehead iu Congress gets
more praise from the press of his party now, than
could truthfully have been bestowed upon Dan

•Can you steer the main-mast down the forecas

“Yes, sir, I eac, if you will stand below and coll
It up.” Captain didn’t catechise that man any
more.
Said a pompous husband, whose wife had
stolen up behind and given him a kiss. “ Madam,
I consider such an act indecorous.” “Excuse
me,” said the wife, “ I didn’t know it was you.”
Tuc Spaniards have a proverb, which reads
thus: At eighteen, marry your daughter to her
superior; at twenty, to her equal; but at thirty,
to anybody wbo will have her.

many th< m-and mere, are britfiy an follows;
It is a first rate mwspaper. All the news of the

presented in a eiear, inielligihle, and interesting
manner. ’
It is a first rate family pape-, full of entertain
ing and instructive r. auing ol every kind, but con
lan ing nothing that can offend the most delicate
and scrupulous taste.
It is a first tate story paper. The best tales and
romances ol current literature are carefully se
lected and legibly printed in its pages.
It is a first rate agricultural paper. The moat
fresh snd instinctive articles on agricultural top
ics regnlar.y appear in thb department.
It is an independent political paper, belonging
to no party and wearing no color! It fights tor
principal and lor the election of the best men to
office. Vt especially devotes its energies to the
exposure of the great c.irruptions that now weaken
and disgrace our country, and threaten to under
mine republican institutions altogether. It has
uo tear of knaves, and asks no favors from their
surporters.
It reports the fashions for the ladies and the

ard preparation, as has been
proved by the hundreds of
testimonials received by the
proprietors. It is acknowl
i edged by many prominent
physicians to be the most

troduced for the relief and
cure of all Lung complaints,
and is offered to the public,
sanctioned by the experience
of over forty years. AVhcn
resorted to in season it sel

cure in the most severe
cases of Coughs, Bronchitis,
Croup, "Whooping Cough,
Influenza, Asthma, Colds,
Sore Throat, Pains or Sore
ness in the Chest and Side,
Liver Complaint, Bleeding
at the Lungs, &c. Wistar’s"
Balsam does not dry up a
Cough, and leave the cause
behind, as is the ease with
most preparations, but it
loosens and cleanses the
lungs, -and allays irritation,
thus removing the cause of
the complaint.
