A GOOD YARN.
viteSrJsfcf'sS:
He kept a store and saw-mill, and
waa always sore to hare the best
of the bargain on his side, by
which be had gained an ample for
tune, and some did not hesitate to
ca|l him the biggest rascal in the
world. He was very conceited
withal, and used to brag of his
business capacity when any one
was near to listen. One rainy'day,
as quite a number were seated
•round the Itore, he begun as usu
al to tell of his great burgains, at and
at last wound up with the expres
sion :
“Nobody lias erer cheated me,
and they can’t neither."
“Judge," said an old man of
the company, “I’ve cheated yon
more than you ever did ms."
“How so f“ said the Judge.
“If you will promise you won’t
so to law about it, nor do any thing
’ll tell you oV else I won’t; you’re
too much of a law character for
me."
“Let’s hear ?” cried a half doz
en roiees at once.
“I’ll promise said the Jndge,
4i and treat in the bargain if you
have.’’
“Well, do you remember that
wagon you robbed me of ?"
“I never robbed you of any
wagon ; I only got the best of the
bargain*” said the Jndge.
“Well, I made up my mind to
have it back, and—’
“You nover did," interrupted
the cute Judge.
“Yes, I did, and interest too.”
“How so ?” thundered the now
enraged Judged ? 4
“Well, you see. Judge, I sold
you one day a very nice pine log,
and bargained with you for a lot
more. Well, that log I stole off
your pile down by the mill the
night bciore, and the next day I
sold it to you. The neat night I
drew it home, and sold it to you
the next day, and so I kept on un
til you had bought your own log
of me twenty-seven times !"
“That’s a lie 1” exclaimed the
infuriated Judge, running to his
book and examining his log ac
count ; “you never sold me twen
ty-soven logs of the same meas
urement.”
“I know it,” said the vender in
logs; “by drawing back and forth,
the end wore off, and as it wore
I kept cutting tho end off, until
it was ten feet long—just fourteen
feet shorter than it was the first
time I brought it—and when itgot
so short I drew it'home and worked
it up into shingles, and the next
week you bought the shingles, and
I concluded I had got the worth
of ray wagon—and stowed away
in my pocket book.”
The exclamation of the .Judge
was crowded in the shouts of the
byßtunders, and the log drawer
found the door with the promised
treat.
An auctioneer was selling a li
brary at auction. Ho was not
yery woll read in books, but ho
scanned the titles, trusting to luck,
and went ahead. “Hero you
have,” he said. “Bunyan’s Pil

offered for it; How much do I
hear for the Pilgrim’s Progress,
by John Bunyan f ‘Tis a first rate

96L. A storekeeper purchased
of an Irish woman a quantity of
butter, the lumps of which, intend
ed for pounds, he weighed in the
balance and found wanting. Sure
it’s your own fault, if they are
light, said Biddy, in reply to the
complaint of the buyer, it’s your
own fault, sir, for wasn’t it with a
pound of slap I bought hero mi
self, that I had weighed ’em ?
The had nothing mom
to say on y t subject. ”
It is stated that there is a
man in Boston who takes a bath
at one of tho wharves regularly ev
ery day at 5 A. M. and five P. M.
When is no ice he dives from
a boat; if frozen over ho places a
carpet on the ice and goes in where
there is an opening. He has done
this at times during tho fainter
when the thermometer
has stood eight degrees
below zero. lie does it for his
health.
The Cotton Combination —As
this organization has complete
Control of all the cotton in the
world, we presume the declines
will go on until it touches ten and
twelve cents. Then the members
will be released from their obliga
tions and all hands do their best to
get all the cotton they can. This
will cause an instant re-action,
and it will go np as rapidly as it
has gone down. We can do noth*
ing now but refuse to sell until the
re-action again raises the market
to twenty* five ceut3. The com
bination is ‘loo powerful for the
feeble, confiding unorganized plan
ters to make any headway against
it in any other manner.
New York speculators will soon
flood the country with false and
lying circulars, over-estimating
the crop and advising planters to
sell. These circulars and their
authors will not do to trust. The
New York cotton dealer is a scaly
fiah at best. He gets his living
and gets rich in anything but a
reputable manner. He cheats in
J weights, makes out false returns,
botes the market wrong, and Sad
ies an account sales with a list
of expense items as long as the
Declaration of Independence.—
There, aro some few exceptions,
but their unmber is very small.
You could find one of these last
about as easily as putting your
baud into a sack of fifty snakes to
pick out ons eel. We are sorry
for the planter credulous enough
to ship his cotton to New York.
Tho combination cannot possii
bly last long. The stock on hand
at Liverpool and Manchester, is
too light to admit of it holding out
longer than a few weoks. It.was
formed and put in operation a
month earlier thi« than list year
for the reason that the Southern
planters owe little money this time,
due between the Ist of September
and 15th of October. They are
making a desperate effort to get
all the cotton offered between these
dates at half price.
A STEAMBOAT SENSATION.
Outlandish Pranks of a Tipsy Parson —
He Gets the Jim-Jams and Loses SIOO,OOO.
The steamer Palestine, plying be
tween this point and Henderson, was
waked up the other day to one of the
liveliest sensations of tls* period. In
the still ot the afternoon, about the time
when passengers usually throw aside
tho papers, drop all their little coversa
tiona, and lean buck listlessly and bear
nothing bat the dashing and roaring of
the big wheel, the loud, quick, sharp
report of a revolver was heard near the
centre of the oabin, followed by a dull
thud, os of some heavy body striking
tho floor.
Instantly all was excitement, and
then there was a grand rush of passen
geru, officers, waitsrs, nod everybody
else for the stato, rooms in* the vicinity
from whioh the report had sounded, and
doors wore thrown open promiscuously,
regardless of locks and latches in the
general dive for a solution of the m*B/
tery. Ono ot the doors wrenched open
revealed the apparently lifeless body of
a middlesoged gentleman, dressed in
black, and a revolver lying upon the
floor near him. "Dead 1” "Dead 1"
“Shot himself I’’ went through the
crowd as the discovery was made; but
the oxoitement subsided somewhat as
the supposed dead man gave a broken
hiccough and showed some decided
signs of life. “Dead drunk and only
shot in the nook," explained gome one,
and then the fallen stranger was gently
lifted by two man into a berth from
which he had evidently rolled after dis
charging his revolver. The lifting
brought him out of the drunken stupor
imawhioh he bad fallen, and he began
tft fljrow himself around in as good
smßKis his peculiar condition would
permit. Seeing a number of person*
about him, he became excitod, and sud
denly discovered that he had lost no less
than a hundred thousand dollars since
getting aboard the boat. The laugh
that followed this announcement did not
in tho least shake his faith In the belief
that he had lost an immense sum, but
he was finally quieted and the state- room
door shut ob him.
Considerable curiosity was excited as
to who the eccentric party oould he, and
it wm finally ascertained that he had
got aboard at some Indiana port, and
he was a minister, as his dress had in
dicated. no had several times been
seen at the bar, but bad retired to his
stateroom without making any demon
strations.
Shortly after the first exoitement had
died away, another report from the
reverend gentleman’s stateroom sudden
ly resounded through the cabin, and
there was another rush to ascertain
what damage had been done. On the
door being thrown open, the occentrio
person was found to be still alive and
unharmed, though exceedingly hilarious
and disposed to make himself heard,
110 come out, and tho clerk took the re*,
volver from him. Upon this he resum
ed hi* cant about loosing a hundred
thousand dollars, and the bar-keeper de
cently suggesting that he hai spent it
at the bar, the parson and
began to abuse the clerk, differing that
the man who had disarmed him had
also robbed him of his hundred thousand
dollars. This was too muoh for the
elerk, and he let himself into the tipsy
traveler like a ten hundred of huildiug
material, laying the accuser straight out
upon the cabin floor, and completely us-*
ing up the parson Tot the rest of thevoyv
age. The fallen here was at once picked up
and put away in his state-room, where,
becoming somewhat sobered, he remain*
ed quietly until the boat touched at bis
destination, when be went ashore, much
to his own relief and that of all on
board, who were exceedingly shocked at
what bad occurred.
A Lrvtso Child Without a Heap.—
In the vicinity of Spoon rivnr in Illi
nois. is a child whioh was boro and has
lived five years without a head. Mrs.
dier, formerly living in Marshall coun
ty, who enlisted in the sixty-fifth or
Scotch regiment. and was killed in the
battle, of Devington, Mo. She was
standing her,ide her husband during the
engagement, when a cannon ball ears
ried his head completely away, bis body
falling into her arms and covering her
with blood. The shock affected her
greatly, and when, in seven months af
terwards, her child was born, there was
not the semblance of a head about it—
The limbs were perfectly developed, the
ifrme long, and the shoulders whore the
head and neck should .be, smoothly
rounded off.
But the movt surprising thing of all
is that the face is sit anted in the breast.
Os course, there being no neck, the
power of turning ite head is wanting,
exaept ss the whole body is moved ; but
this difficulty is overcome by the singu
lar faculty it possesse* of turning its
eyes in their sockets, enabling it to see
quite as well on either side as tllose
more perfectly formed. The npper por*
tion of its body is white as the purest
Caucasian; from the waist downwards
is a blood red. This strange creature,
now an active boy of five years old, as
if to compensate for its deformity, pos
sesses the most olear and bird-like tones
ever listened to, singing with singular
correctness everything it may hea-, and
its voice at this early age accomplishing
two octaves easily.
Those Blessed Results.—The great
argument of the Radicals seems to
be this:
If Grant is not elected, the results of
the late war will be lost.
The result which these precious pa
triots are so anxious to keep, may be
c imlogund as follows:
. Negro outrages in the South.
Stealing ana defaulting by Govern
ment officors.
Enormous taxation.
An overwhelming public debt.
High prices for all the necessaries of
life.
A depreciated currency.
A general stagnation in business.
A total lack of confidence in the Gov
ernment.
And a Pandora’s box full of sooial
and political evils, all growing out of
tho late war. -
Those who wish to preserve these re.,
suits, and multiply them year by year,
will vote for Grant.
There is a man in Maine,
the owner of a pretty piece of
crinoline; who Shows decided plnck.
He says that when the minister
was hugging and kissing his wife,
he peeped through the crack of
the door and saw it all ; and as
long as he has the spirit of man
remaining, he will peek on all such
occasions.
