The citizens of Douglas will have a rare treat on the 14th, inst., in the visit and lecture of Prof. Pound of Way cross.

Tii: Printing Office Towel. When I think of the towel, the old fashioned towel, that used to hang up by the piintinghouse door, I think that nobody in these days of shoddy can hammer iron to wear as it work. The tramp, who abused it, the deyil, who used it, the make-up and foreman, the editor (poor man), each rubbed some grime off while they put a heap on. In, over and under, twas blacker than thun der, ’twas harder than poverty, rougher than sin; from the roller suspended, it was never bended, and it flapped on the wall like a banner of tin. Itgrew thick er and rougher, and harder and tougher and daily put on an inkier hue, until one windy morning, without any warn ing, it fell to the floor and was broken in two.—Burdette.
