This was the cause of all the trouble: LOST—On the 10'h inst., a small Terrier Dog, with a brass collar upon bis neck, and the tip of bis tail gone. Answers to the name of “Jack.” Five dollars reward will bo gived to the per son who returns him to JOHN QUILL, No. 84, Rickety How. 1 inserted the above in the Daily Flipftap, in the hope that 1 might recov er the animal, to which I was attached. The Flipflap goes to press at 5 a. m. At halt past six I was awakened by a pull at my door bell. 1 got out and opened the window. As 1 looked out I saw a man standing in the front yard with a mongrel dog, tied to a rope - He gaz -d up aud observed : “llel|o ! are you tho fellow who lost a doig X" “Yes, I am.” “ VY r eil, then, I’ve fetched him,”caid the man. 1 iben oxplained to this wretched hu man being that my dog was a terrier, while his looked more like a dog of wood with half tbc bark off aud propped up ou four sticks, than a dog of any kind. “Well, ain’t you a going 'to take him ?" “I wouldn’t have him as a gift. And I want you to move off now, or l’lt call the k polioe.” “Nuw, i guess you think you are smart, don’t you ? I’d bust you ovei the jaw for live cent-, I would, kou don't know a good durg when you see him, you don’t,” aud he went out, after ripping the pailiugs off the fence. In about a hall hour there was anoth er riDg at tho bell. 1 went down.— Xkero was a man with six dogs of a va lietv of breedjj, “VVh-wbioh of ’cm’s him, bsb-boss,” said Ibis fellow, for ho stuttered as it he would strangle on a small sylable. “Nii her of them.” “Y-you said his n-na Dame was J- Jack, if didn’t you V* “Yes, that's it*’* “\\-well, then, wh-wh-what de you call that I” says he, as he suDg out “Jack,’ and the whole six dogs looked upend waggod their tails like a lot of spavined oxcuiu fly time. * “Why, I call it confounded nonsense to expect me to take the whole six dog 6 becauso they're named Jack. 1 dou t want to start a sausage mill, you unde, stand. Mmco meet isn’t in my line.” “W-w-w-well, ain’t you going to take him ?” “Certainly net, do you snrvpndo T am a gibbering idiot !” “ W-w-weli, ycu sh shant have him now it you want him. I w-w.wouldn’t trust a decent d-dog with a m-m-man like you anyway.” And the six canines fe'.l into line and troitep down the rtreet af.er him. I bad not got luirly into the house belore there was another ring. Seedy looking wi;h a semi-decayed yellow dog. His riL-s stuck out so that he look as if Be had gorged himself with a spiral spring. •‘leu advertised for a dog, I believe Well, I caught biiu around aero in the ally, alter a desperate struggle. Fine dog, sir.” •'■Well, I don’t think he is. He looks to Die il he wasn’t well. He is too elherial foi this world, young mao, dc peud upon it." l Oh not at all, sir.

Bee that,” a .id the man, as he t>e:z-id him, “that’s a sign he’s woll trained ; no raw dog b'ebavev like that, I want you to know. Now s,p 'Be you fork ovtr that five." •‘Not much ! 1 don’t wai t him my ft i lid.” “You won’t do it? Well tbeo, take Lina Lrscv n j-fivc cents, and say uo more about it. lie’s a valuable annual Y’uu’ll never get auothersuoh a cliauoe.’ “I tell you I wont have him.,’ “Well don’t then,” said the man as he kicked the auitnal over on my flower pots and broke three oi (hem, while (he brute dashed madly down the middle of the street. Just then a big ruffian in a slouch hat catne Up with a bull-dog, sprung in the knees, and lamenting tho entire 10-s of his tail. When the ruffian spoke to hitu ho waggad tho whole of tbo last half of him. ‘‘l’ve brought tba.*, there dog,” was the observation made by tho ruffian, and I’ll fiinger them thifo stamps, I reckon.” “My friend,” says I, “that is not my dog.” ‘•Yes, it is, though.” “Hut it is not.” “Dju’t I tell you it is? Didn’t you say the tip of his tail was gone 't Well just look at him, will you ?” “Well, I won’t have him, anvh tw !’ “You want to cheat me, do you ? I’ll fix you. S-sick him, bull !” said the outrageous ruffian, as the dbg flew at me, giviug me barely time to get iunde and shut tho door on his frontispiece. I guess I sqneeZid the nose off of that dog. Hut the man cursed me for about five minutes, and then flung a brick at my door and wont away. In less than twenty minutes another ring: Bmall pock-marked man in red shirt, this timo. Had a speckled that looked as if be had been out without an umbrel a when it was raining ink. B»ys this victim of the small pox : “You know that dog you advertised for ?” Well, here he is.” j ‘ 0 pshaw,” said I “you know that tflD’t my dog.” j “Your name’s Qiill, ain’t it ?” | “It is,” said I. 1 “ Well, then, this here is the dbg He is the best ratter you ever seen.— Blings them around like he was amus ing hisself, he does, and—” “But he is not my dog.” “An 1 he is a bully watch dog. Laok at him 1 Look at him now—he’s watch iDg new l Why he will sit there and watch and watoh uutil he goes stone i blind, he will. He watch all night if lyou only let him. I’ll just chain him ' up while you go in and got the V ” | “No you needn’t,” said I. “I’ll blow his Drains out if you don't take him away.” “Well, say, stranger, I’m a little strapped to-day ; jugt lend mo five on him this morniog, will you? I’ll pay you to morrow.” “See here, now, you just git out of here, or I’ll take the bide off of you,” t said, for I began to get exoited, you know. “Aw ! you ain’t worth a oent, you ac tually ain’t,” said the pock-marked man as he walked off, after clipping the dog over the head with one of my nice palling o , and then putting his lingers up to his nose. Not a minute after up comes a man with a mastiff as big as a small horse. “Say, boss, want that five,” was all he remarked, by way of introducing tho subject. “Well,you cant gru it, and if you don’t leave I’ll call the police,” I ex claimed in do-pair. “Watch him Zip !” said the man,in stancy, and tho dog flew at me, throw mo down, and bit a slice of muscle out of my leg, and di-figured my nose for life. Tneu the assassin whs owned him oalled him off and went away laugh ing. I didn’t answer any more tings that about four o’clock in me af ternoon I looked out of the second story window, and the yard was full of men with all kinds of dogs. Black dog,», white dogs, yellow dogs, variegated dogs, flea bitten dogs, deg 6 with ta 1, dogs without tails, rat tamers, bull pups, poo dles, fox hounds, spaniels, Newt.und lands, mixed breeds, pointers, setters, and a multitude of other varieties, alt growling, yelping, barking, snapping aud jumping about, until there wasn't a flower pot left in the plac6, at,d the noise was worse than a menagorie at meal time. 1 havu’t got my dog yet. I don’t want him eitner. I don’t care if I nev er see another dog between this and the silent grave. I only wish that all the dogs from here to .Russian America were collected into a convention, and Dad hold of that man with the mastiff, ihai they might kuaw on him until he had not a morsel of meat left on bis skeleton. That is all I waDt in the dog line in this world. Going Rack for Reform. Tbtr; has been something of surprise created among the Hxdicais of New Hampshire at the discovery of a law for the puaishuient of “profanity and other vices.” It appears from tho statistics giveD, that there has been a steady growth of profanity, and other kindred vices, in the Bta’e of New Hampshire, during the past eight years. Ot late it has becomo so fearful.y prevalent, evt n among a large number ot Radical cLu-ch members, who had anticipations of office whioh have not, of oour»e,becn gratified, that the more rcspectablo citizens of the various towns have held meetings with a view to petitioning the Legislature for a law by which the growing e7i!s might at least be cut bca. Before apjliomon had been made, however, it was ascer- tained that there was no hope of sococs ! for the reason that the Radical members t tereof wero (r jncunced the most advan ced and confirmed publicly known oases in the State. Respectability was in a quandary, until an antiquarian of Con cord discovered among (ho statutes a law passed by tbs ruling Democracy of that d»y, designed for the correction of circus riders acd ether profane stran gers who occasionally visited that re gion, and, when drunk, gave offense to decency, in accordance with this law, a prominent liadical, just returned from an un uceessful trip to tho National Capital, was brought up and “fined” for “damning" his neighbor. The dis covery has given joy to decency and disagreeable suprise to advanced fixdi callism. The law, although as we have said, had been forgotten, for the reason that, under dominant Democracy, there had never been occasion for its applica tion to any native there.— Pomeroy's Democrat. Recipe for stinking Tattlers. This business is generally very well undershood, but lest there should be a community devoid of that important of ficer, (sometimes the duties are per iormed by ladies,) we givo the follow ing, warrented never to fail : Tuko a handful of the weed called Hun about, the tame quantity of root called Niiable-tongue, a sprig of the herb, Backbite, (either before or after dogdays,) a table spoon full of Don’t you tell it, six drachms of Malice, a few drops of Envy, which can be pur chased at the shops of Miss Nancy Badbea'rt or Mist Tabithe Hatred Stir them well together, and simmer for half an hour over the fire of discon tent, k ndled with a little jealousy, then strain it through the rag of Mis conception, and cork it up in tho,bot tle ot Malevolence and hang upon a skeiil of Street Yarn; shake it occa sionally for a few days, and it will be fit for use. Let a lew drops be taken before walking out, and the subject will be enabled to speak all manner of jevil and that continually. VOL. IV.—-NO. Ik Pea*. Editor Journal iL Messenger : I no-' lice that since tho war very few far mers grow peas. Why is this ? Have they lostßeed? Have they forgotten that a good pea field furnishes fine grazing in tho full for stock? We aio neglecting an important interest. The' peactop is valuable in many respects,, aod is one of the cheapest crops raised. 1 ho fanner needs pea fields to fatten his h. or Has and rnu/es in the I*ll, and it puya well to raise them for that pur pose, even if we have no hogs or cows. But the great value of tho pea crop i» not ao much in its fertilizing effects upon our worn and exhausted soil. A heavy crop of cow pea vinos grsatly benefit the land, by furnishing it vege table mould, which our exhausted 6oil mostly Deeds. The whole catalogue of guano, ph ephates, etc., about whieh our farmers are now so much excited, will fail to keep up our luuds without a due supply of vegetable mould.— This is furnished in abundance by the pea crop. Plant peas on every acre of your land, whether you gather a bushel or graze a hog, cow, or mule. Let them lie and rot, and turn them under in the spring. The succeeding crop of what ever kind will report good interest. Plant peas to restore exhausted soil. Plant peas to enticb your land and assist in keeping it rich. Method or Planting. —Mr. Dick son says : “After the second plowing of com, run a shovel lurrow to the middle of a corn row ; drop one bush el of peas to every eight acres—say six to eight peas to a hill—and cover with a barrow.” I suggest the following amendment to Mr Dicksnn’a plan: Alter 6iding the corn, run a shovel furrow in the middle, and drop the peas. The two remaining furrows to split out the middles, when plowing the corn with eweeps, will cover the peas nicely without the additional barrow. This saves labor which is the great desider atum in this age of farming. The crop ol peas will only cost you one furrow to the row; and the ultimate per cent ago in the way ol ben fit to the land will bo incalculable. Try this plan. J. D. 8. Sunny Home, Houston co, Apr. 28. Tkruiblb Xletribution. —The wheels of rime, in their revolving, sel dom fail to distribute justice and pun ishment where it is deserved, and there are few instances on record of speedier punishment or more terrible retribution than in tho case of those who were the main instruments in getting poor mary But ratt hanged. Upon the testament of four of the vilest scoundrel—Baker, Montgomery, Clever and Conover—she was convict.d. Now mark the terrible disposition a just God has made of the murderers. Baber, not otg siDce, died a miserable death ; Montgomery is dow in prison for embezlement; Clever has been convicted for an infamous outrage and Conover would have been deserv edly serving out his time in the peni tentiary had net Johnson pardoned him. Preston King, who prevented Miss An- Dio Surratt seeisg the President in her mother’s behalf, committed suicide- by drowning in the North river, while Lane, who supported King in his con duct toward Miss Surratt, shot himself in St. Louis. There remain but Stan ton, Bingham and Holt, who stand, like the murderous cowards they are, trem bling in fear of the reckoning day. The mills of God grind slowly, But they grind exceedingly small. The Itigar Trade-Revolution it! tlic Old System. Special attention is invited to the fol lowing article from tho Louisville Cou . tier Journal : It has been for many years a fixed belief among practical men, that tbe success of sorghum as a producer of su gar would revolutionize the entire sugar interest of the West Indies and tbe Southern S a'es. About a year ago a company was es-» tahlish'd iu Keutneky, la.log for its objeot a thorough manufacture of sugar from tie Chinese cane. This compa ny made its hoadqnaiters at Louisville, ad work in a quiet and busi ngs like way. Its experiment is now an undoubted success. About eight miles out of tvwn, on the ylantation of Mr. John 11. Seebolt, supax of the very finest de crip’ion is being made out of siighum in l»rgi quantises. All tbo origin i 1 and ULuities Lave been van q used. Not an ob.'-ttcle'remains in the way of tbe ci t rprise. It is a complatrf success. N) rna cen investigate the matter wi bouUccming away with a strong im press:oa on bis mind that the threat en and r volution is in rapid progress of lu li mont This sugar is no way infe rior to the b st Wett India sugar. It would be tedious and perhaps im possible to make plain to the mind of the re dir the details of tbe process of mat u icture. It is simple, and thema chtn ry, as we learo, i no expensive; bat it is necessarily full t f tecl ntcalilies which would require tbe aid of illus r»- tioas to be described. Saffiac it to say fiat the tram f.ictureis iu atual progress, and that there is uo reasonable doubt that it wi’l become a leading article of rxpori Irom this market before the end ot tbe present year.
