Contest of a Danbury Man with
a Stovepipe.
Putting up a stove is not so difficult in itself.
It is the pipe that raises four-fifths of the mis
chief and all the dust. You may take down a
stove with all the care in the world, and have
your wife put away the pipe in a secure place,
and yet that pipe won’t come together again
as it was before. You find this out when you
are standing on a chair with your arms
full of pipe and your mouth full of soot
Your wife is standing on the floor in a
position that enables her to see you, the
the chair, and her6 she givea
""utterance to those remarks that are cal
culated to hasten a man into the extremes of
insanity. Her dress is pinned over her waist,
and her hands rest on her hips. She has got
one of your hats on her head, and your linen
coat on her back, and a pair of your rubbers
on her feet. There is about five cents worth
of pot black on her nose, and a lot of flour on
her chin, and altogether, she is a spectacle
that would inspire a dead man with distrust.
And while you are up there trying to circum
vent the awful contrariness of the pipe, and
telling that you know some fool has been
mixing it, she stands safely on the floor, and
oombards you with such domestic mottoes as:
‘•what’s the use of swearing so?” “You
know no one has touched that pipe.” “You
ain’t got any more patience than a child. Do
be careful of that chair.” And then she goes
off and reappears with an armful of more
pipes, and before you are aware of it she has
got that pipe so horibly mixed up that it
does seem no two pieces a v e alike. You join
the ends, and work them to and fro, and take
them apart again and look at them. Then
you spread one out and jam the other to
gether, and mount them once more. But it
is no go. You begin to think the pieces are
inspired with life, and ache to kick them
through the window. But she doesn't
lose her patience. She goes around with that
awfully exasperating rigging on, with a length
of pipe under each arm, aud a long-handled
broom in her hand, and says she don’t see
how it is some people never have any trouble
in putting up a stove. Then you miss the
hammer. You don’t see it anywhere. You
stare into the pipe and along the mantle, and
down on the stove, and off to the floor. Your
wife watches you intently, and is finally
thoughtful enough to inquire what you are
looking afteT, and on learning pulls the article
from her pocket. Then you feel as if you
could go out doors and swear a hole twelve
feet square through a block of brick buildings,
but she merely observes:
‘ ‘ Why on earth don’t you speak when you
want anything, and not stare around like a
dummy ?” When that part of the pipe which
goes through the wall is up, 6he keeps it up
with her broom, while you are making the
connection, and stares at it with an intensity
that is entirely uncalled for. All the while
your position is coming more and more in
teresting. The pipe don’t go together, of
course. “ The soot shakes down in yonr eyes
and mouth, the sweat rolls down your face
and tickles your chin as it drops off, and it
seems as if your arms are slowly but surely
drawing out of their sockets. Here your
wife comes to the rescue by inquiring if you
are going to be all day doing nothing, and if
you think her arms are made of iron, and then
the broom slips off the pipe, and in her en
deavor to recover her hold she jabs you under
the chin with the handle, and the pipe comes
down on your head with its load ot fresh soot,
and then the chair tilts forward enough to
discharge your feet, and you come down on
the wrong end of that chair with a force that
would bankrupt a pile-driver. You don’t
touch that stove again. You leave your w ife
examining that chair and bemoaning its inju
ries, and go into the kitchen and wash your
skinned and bleeding hands with yellow soap.
Then you go down street after a man to do
the business, and your wife goes over to the
neighbors with her chair, and tells them about
its injuries, and drains the neighborhood dry
of its sympathy long before you get home.

Wonderful Invention.
A BOON TO JOURNALISM — BOGARDUS’ PATENT
IRRESISTIBLE COMBINATION KICKER.
[To the Editor of the Courier Journal. J
I have invented a machine for the purpose
of reducing the number of exchange fiends
now in existence. As many of your ex
changes know, exchange fiends are persons
of great perseverance who continually drop
into the room where the exchanges of a
newspaper office are kept, and wrestle with
them under the pretense of searching for
the Daily San Francisco Crusher, or the Waco
Weekly Bullwhaeker, or some other sheet
that they offer to swear they can’t find at the
news stands. These persons, as if their pres
ence alone were not sufficiently harrowing,
have a way of sitting for at least half an
hour at a time, and rattling the papers in the
exchange basket in a manner evidently in
tended to exasperate and confuse everyone at
work within range of the noise. They do
worse. When one of them is informed that
the paper wanted is not to be had, he invaria
bly says, “An old one will do just as well;”
and his brow darkens with unmanly suspicion
when he is told that the paper he wants has
positively been carried out. These persons
also make tedious and unnecessary explana
tions, consuming much valuable time and
wearing out the patience. They know every
thing that’s disagreeable, and practice it per
sistently. All their faults, if written of here,
would make this thing too long.
The invention to which I reier is known as
“Bogardus’ Patent Irresistible Combination
Kicker, for the use of Newpaper Offices;”
and it is in every respect superior to the buzz
saw now in use in some of the Western news
paper establishments. It consists mainly of—
first, a large, strongly constructed chair, in
the bottom of which were concealed numerous
remarkable springs of extraordinary power;
second, an immense boot made of a hard,
unyielding substance, and connected, beneath
the floor, with the chair; third, a number of
strong rods and things connecting the whole
with the steam engines of the establishment.
The boot and chair are also connected with a
powerful hook which is concealed in the
ceiling.
As the unsuspecting exchange fiend ap
proaches, he is requested to be seated in the
chair, which is placed close to, the basket in
which the exchanges are kept. Just as he
settles in the seat and reaches for an exchange,
a member of the editorial staff suddenly jerks
a convenient nob; the powerful and wonder
ful springs in the chair begin to toss the fiend
in a most extraordinary manner; a portion of
the floor slides away, and the immense boot
swings into view, making a kind of crashing
noise, as though the building were falling.
In a few seconds more the remarkable springs,
true to their task, throw the astonished fiend
into a position which makes him face the
door. The concealed hook then drops from
the ceiling and seizes him by the coat-collar,
and then the boot, with the rapidity of light
ning, is put where it will do the most good.
When the boot has gone rapidly back and
forth for about half a minute, the machinery
is stopped, the shattered fiend is lowered to a
litter and carried out, and for six weeks be
languishes under the impression that he has
been assaulted from behind by the tutelary
demon of the press, or some equally exasper
ated monster, too hideous to describe. He
never returns to the exchange basket.
The Patent Irresistible Kicker is very effec
tive, and has been known to shatter one of Dr.
Harding’s celebrated interviewing cushions at
one blow. 1 anticipate a great demand for it
as soon as its merits become known. The
specification of this patent is the spring-work
of the chair, with the connecting boot.

dKCCLAB LETTER FLOM GOVERNOR RROWX—
Vrtt.T BONDS WILL BE FUNDED AND
WHAT EEG1STEBED.
Governor John C. Brown, of Tennessee,
has issued a circnlar letter in response to nu
merous letters of inquiry respecting the
nuances of that State, in which he says:
Orders have been given for the engraving of
the new bonds, and the necessary books are
in course of preparation. We will certain
ly commence lunding and registering as
early as the first day of July next, per
haps sooner. Notice of the exact date
will be given in dne time. As to what
bonds will be rejected, it is proper to
state that those known as the Mineral Home
Railroad bonds, amounting to ¥100,000, and
numbered as lollows, to-wit: From No. 9,851
th 9,865, and from No. 9,896 to 9,989, ail of
said numbers included, all being green bonds
without letter denoting series, and those
known as the bonds of the Insurance Compa
ny of the Valley of Virginia, amounting to
$20,000, and numbered as follows, to-wit:
From 6,001 to 6,017, including both numbers;
also Nos. 6,740, 7,546 aud 7,547, all of green
issue—without letter denoting seties-as well
as the Tennessee Confederate war bonds, will
be rejected. If there be any others that may
not be registered or funded under the provis
ions of the funding act, their existence is pot
known at this department. And when it is
considered that ont of more than $13,000,000
retired since the early part of 1870, no such
bond has been detected, the presumption is
very strong that none such are in existence.
The bonds and coupons presented will, how
ever, be critically inspected, and if any are
found to have been fraudulently issued, or not
issued under laws existing at the time they
were issued, they will be rejected.
I see no necessity for an extra session of the
General Assembly. I believe the Assessment
act now in force will develop a largely increased
amount of taxable property—ample, under the
present law, to maet the necessities of the State.
Should I be mistaken in this, however, and
Bhould the assessment returns disclose the fact
that the revennes will not be sufficient to meet
the current wants of the State, after paying the
interest as provided for in the Funding act, the
General Assembly will certainly be called to
gether in ample time to meet the emergency.
No means within the warrant of the constitu
tion and laws that may be necessary to protect
the plighted faith and credit of the State will
he neglected or omitted.
The interest maturing July l, 1874, can
and will be met out of the revenues of 1873,
even should there be no improvement in the
asseeement returns, as a very simple calcula
tion (including the taxes on privileges) will
readily show. And if any improvement in
the Revenue laws should appear necessary to
meet the subsequent installments of interest,
it can and should be made in the assessments
and levies of 1874. In any aspect of the
case, therefore, there ia no existing necessity
for convening the General Assembly in extra
session.
Contbast Between Texas and Louisiana.
The increase of population in Texas since
I860—our authority is Mr. Dennett—has been
400,000; in Louisiana 18,000; in lands culti
vated in Texas 314,000 acres, against a de
crease of 1,600,000 acres In Louisiana. The
productions of Texas have kept pace with the
increase of population and of acres, while
the productions of Louisiana have decreased
one-third. Texas has built nearer 1,000
miles of railroad than Louisiana has 100.

Spring;©,
NEAR ROCERSVILLE, TENNESSEE.
A writer in Chamber’s Journal, on “Short
Speeches and Curt Correspondence,” gives a
budget of anecdotes, some of which are
fresh, and others, well—otherwise. Here are
the best of them: “An American judge once
intervened in an odd way to prevent a waste
of words. He was sitting in chambers, and
seeing, from the piles of papers in the law
yers’ hands, that the first case was likely to
be hardly contested, he asked, ‘What is th e
amount in question ? ‘Two dollars,’said the
plaintiff’s counsel. ‘I'll pay it,’ said the
fudge, handing over the money; ‘call the
next case.’ He had not the patience
of taciturn Sir William Grant, who,
after listening for a couple of days to the
arguments of counsel as to the construc
tion of an act, quietly observed, when they
had done, ‘The act is repealed.’ One morn
ing a woman was shown into Dr. Abernethy’s
room; before he could speak, she bared her
arm, saying, ‘Burn.’ ‘A poultice,’ said the
doctor. Next daj T she called again, showed
her arm, and said, ‘Better.’ ‘Continue the
poultice.’ Some days elapsed before Aber-
nethy saw her again; then she said, ‘Well,
your fee ?’ ‘Nothing,’ quoth the great medico:
'‘you arc the most sensible woman I ever saw!’
Lord Aberdeen, the Premier of the Coalition
Ministry, was remarkable for the little use he
made of his tongue. When, by way of recon
ciling him to accompany heT on a sea trip, the
Queen smilingly observed: ‘I believe, my
lord, you are not often sea-sick ?’ ‘Always,
madam,’ was the brief but significant reply.
‘But,’said she, ‘not very sea-sick ?' ‘Very, mad
am,’ said the uncompromising minister. An
inquisitive French bishop once caught a Tar
tar in the Duke do Roquelaire. The latter,
passing in haste through Lyons, was hailed
by the bishop with ‘Hi ! hi!’ The duke
stopped. ‘Where have you come from?’in
quired the prelate. ‘Paris,’ said the duke.
‘What is there fresh in Paris ?’ ‘Green peas. ’
‘But what were the people saying when you
left?’ ‘Vespers.’ Goodness, man,’ broke out
the angry questioner, ‘who are you? What
are you called ?’ ‘Ignorant people call me
Hi! hi! gentlemen term me the Duke de
Roquelaire. Drive on postillion !’ Talley
rand acknowledged a pathetic letter from a
lady friend, announcing her widowhood, with
a note of two words: “Helas, madarne !’
And, when the easily consoled dame wrote
not very long afterward soliciting his influ
ence on behalf of an officer she was about to
marry, he merely replied: ‘Ko ! ho ! mad
am 1 ? r ”

A Cemetery Washed Away.
From Cornelius Brown, member of the
House from Little Rock county, Arkansas,
the Gazette has the following particulars con
cerning the destruction by water of the Per
kins graveyard. The cemetery was opened in
1854, at which time it was owned by Constan
tine Perkins, who died daring the war, and is
sixteen miles below Little Rock on the
Arkansas river. The river was very high on
a Friday, at which time the yard commenced
caving into the river,exposing to view mouldy
coffins and some times their contents. The
water kept rising until the cemetery was swept
completely away, and about 500 coffins were
washed into the river. It is thought they will all
be recovered, as the graveyard is situated in
what is known as the “Horse Shoe,” between
the river and a lake, where the water forms an
eddy. When the graveyard was opened it was
sitnated about 800 yards from the river, but
each succeeding rise has washed more and
more of the bank away, until the last flood
came which destroyed every aestige of the
hallowed spot wherein were the loved remains
of many citizens. The last body was washed
into the river Sunday, at which time the citi-
cens of the neighborhood were summoned ont
by a justice of the peace to rescue tho bodies
from the river, and at which time thirty-five
were recovered. It is though t all of the bod
ies will be recovered, except those who have
laid in the ground until their bodies have de
cayed. Among the bodies'recovered and rec
ognized were Seeley Pillow, a woman who
died six weeks ago, ana Sbado Shaley, a man
who had beou dead about a year. The wildest
j excitement prevails in tho vicinity of the <
i etery, us the men and women are scurcbing
I the muddy waters of the Arkansas for the rc-
j mains of tlieir dear friends.

Dear Sir—In reply to yonr inquiry, I wonld
state that my opinion of PETERS’ EUREKA
TANNING PROCESS may be inferred from
the fact that I am now wearing a pair of
boots, the leather of which was tanned by
that process before the same was perfected
and a patent obtained; that the said boots
have now been in wear for the period of three
years—are the most pliable and easy to the
feet of any boot I ever wore, and are in a
good state of preservation yet.

The undersigned take pleasure in affirming
their knowledge of the faqts, and the trath of
the statements set forth, in the foregoing let
ter ot their fellow-townsman, S. M. Nicboalds,
and also in attesting the unsurpassed excel
lence and great superiority of the leather
tanned by the Eureka Tanning Process.
