Almost every night of his life for the lust twenty-three years a De troiter has been aroused fr,>m his slumbers by a poke in the ribs and a voice whispering: John! John! do you hear that? On such occasions the conversa tion Ins always run In one channel, and about as follows: Whazzer want? Don't you hear that noise? No. Liston! I tell you someone is rats ing a window! Ob J bosh! l'’or heaven sake, JoltD, got up or we‘il be murderod in our bods! I hear some onojnoying around in the dining room! Let em move! Therejit is again! If you and n't get up I will, fur I'm all in a chili! Thero was no penoe until John got up and stumbled around the house with an old rusty revolver in his giip. Ho never expected it was anything more than the wind or the frost or the cat, but almost ev ery night brought a repetition. The other night ushered an en tire change of programme. Just before midnight the wife eibowed his spine and whispered: Mercy on me! but I feel a draught or cold air! Nonsense! gro'wlod the sleepy husband And I hear somoouo walking around. It's the cat! Get out of tho bed this minute, or I'll yell murder and arouse the neighborhood! John obeyed. 110 felt tho cold air on his logs ns he tramped across the upper hall, and wliou ho was half way down stuirs a dark figure skipped out of tiro open front door. When ho reached the threshold ho saw a man running uoross tho street and he called out: H-IIow! thore-'liold on! The man halted. Come back hero, you burglar* Come back and I'll give you tho run of tho home! I've becu waiting for au-i .-per*'’ng you lor over twen ty years, a- . ow J don't want to ho shook in this u.u, . m! You go to South A" ’on! snout ed Die men. Well, I’ll leade tho door open for you, and you can outer and burglar around for a whole hour it you warn to and I won't lift a finger: i‘m glad you got in—powerful glad, and sorry I drove you out before you had loaded up! He left tne door open nnd walked up stairs and jumped into t-ed, but his wife threw up the window and whistlo-l for the uolice nnd raised such a racket that tho neighbors were arowsed. It was found that tho robber had opened the front door with a (also key, but had been driven away before ho had time to secure any plunder. I‘vo just got tired of poking around for burglary when there are no burglars, exclaimed tho man as he waived the crowd out of the hall, nnd if this chap had only stopped long onough to fire at me a couple ol limes, hanged if I wouldn't have bought him a now overcoal! Startlinff. There in a very forcible temper ance argument m the following par agraph elipppod 'rom tlio Journal ofComiunrcc: It isjassumed that the people of Missouri consume al colmlic liquors to the amount ol $39,000,090 annually. This nuin is sufficient to build 30,000 dwellings amply sufficient to c,,uifortably shel ter 150,000 people. Suppose we shut down our grog for a year, ap propriate tho usual annual cost of it to budding these 30,000 houses and donate them to sober, honest, in dustrious immigrants who willcoire and settle in this State’ Wouldn't that be a magnificent and munifi cent act of wisdom and benevoWncu? Wo would not only be no worse off at tho end of the year becunes we bad given away $30,000,000 for a wise purpose, but would save our people front ail the ills and degre dutious resulting from habits of in temperance, and give comfortable homes to 150,000 men, women and children. Let os stop our grog for a year and build the 30,000 hou ses. Scene at a railway station. What time does the next traiu for Blank go, sor? Fifty minutes past one (Bewildered Hibernian looking at the clock), I’m too late for that thin; when is the next wun? Ten minutes of two. Thank you sor; 111 take that, Ered'k Sineatb, 210 Charlton st. Savant nti. G*., says: I derived much benefit from the u*eof Brown's Iron Bitters. All Sorts.

The expence of running the City of Columbus for ths past year was $109,050.84, and there was a bal ance in tbu Treasury DocombePlst of $2,958.08. Tonoy Jones, ooli.red, was on Wednesday last convicted ot the murder ot Prince Anderson, colored in Mclntosh county, nnd was sen tenced by Judge Adams to be hanged on tho Blli day of January, 1883. Tho Hibernians were passing a stable which had a rooster on t for a weather vane, when ono ad dressed the other thus. Pat what's the reason they didn't put a lion up thero instud of a rooster? An' suro replied Pat, tints ai.sy enough, dont you see it would be iucouva nieut to go for eggs? Some idea of the size of Queen Victoria’s carriage can be formed from the report that it took forty min utes to pass it. In California the aesthetic sunflower is abundantly utilized. It produces sixty-two bushels of seeb to the acre and from each bushel of seed one gal lon of oil is obtained which makes a firsi-class iilumluinant. The cows and chickens are fed fattened on the meal of the seed after the oil’is extracted. A careful calculation shows that $2,- 000,000 woith of alcoholic drinks is used, each day, in this country — more than enough to pay the Nation al debt in two years. Ex-Senator Robert Toombs who has been in Washington recently, was on the floor of the U. S. Senate, the first time he has been in the senate chamber since he left tliat body in 1861. If a fair valuation of the taxable property of Ceorgia weie given in, it would not be less than $310,000,- 000. Railroad property is given in at only $18,729,427. Could it be bought for double that amount to mor row? Watches, jewelry and silver ware are given in at only $1,183,327.

The total value of property in Geor gia in 1882, is $287,249,403. In crease in value over 1881, 16,255,515. The amount of property returned by colored tax payers, $6,589,876, an in crease over 1881 0f5m,285. A paper lately read before the Society de Biologie foreshadows results which may be of great use to agriculturlists. A series of ex. perimenta were reported, intended to demonstrate the value cf boiled and dried blood as ar, ailment for cattle when it is finely powdered and spi inkl- and into their ordinary vegetable diet. The method has thus far proved very successful with sheep, and a few casas have been reported of delicate children being restored to healtli by this means.
