A certain merchant had occasion, the other day, to leave his store for a few minutes, and asked a countryman “to keep store" for him, to which the latter assented. But no sooner had he left than an ominous ringing of the bell attached to the cash drawer brought him back. "What are you fooling with my cash drawer for, sir ?’’ ho Inquired. "Is that ’ar darned bell a cash drawer ? Didn’t know it. I jlst rubbed my elbow 'ginst the thing and It rung, but I didn't mean no harm by it." "What were you doing behind the counter 7" roared the merchant. “That’s what I can’t understand,” re plied the countryman, as ho quietlyslided ont. Origin at the Polka Dance. This is the origin of the dance called tho Polka: A servant girl In a tradesman's family la Bohemia was, one afternoon, singing a village song and dancing to the tlmo of a peculiar step, and while doing so was observed by her employer, who made her repeat tho performance. In tho evening sho was brought into the parlor, and, in tho presence of some friends of the family, she sang and danced again. Not long afterward occurred a citizens’ ball in the town, and the step was introduced; and. In 1835, five years afterward, It came into fashion in Prague and was called the Polka, which means, In Teheque, half. Remember, you can get any shade you want in Zephyr wools from novlS eodtf J.

Editor (XilumbuH Times: The taking of the evidenco in the Melntka-Lyon mur der ease war concluded about 11 o’clock lost night. The case on the part of tho State was opened In a half hour’s speech from Col. Lyman W. Martin, In that ablo and elo quent manner peculiar to himself. Col. Samford followed In behalf of de fendants. He spoke three quarters of an hour. His speech was an able ono, every one being deeply Impressed with his earn estness and zeal in behalf of his clients. JudgoJ. F. Waddell concluded on the part of the State. Ho kept the floor about two hours, making one of the most mas terly efforts over listened to at the bar in this county. The court and audience seemed spell-bound at the aide and elo quent appeal made by him In liis effort to expound the law and convict the doubly guilty parties, in this, the foulest of all crimes that has ever saddened the hearts and|aroused the just Indignation of the citizens of this community. THE DECISION. The court rnudored its verdict about 4 o’clock this morning. Mr. and Mrs. Davis were acquitted, Charles Meinlkl and Mrs. Lyons were convicted of the charge preferred against them, that of murder, and committed to jail without ball. Crawford. ATLANTA NOTE*. — . ■ ) ..i— w Hon. Alexander H. Stephens, the great commoner, was In Atlanta yesterday, with his two faithful servants, en route to Washington. The (ommomwcalth, which has been so ably conducted by Col. Styles, has gone up. He has not given up tho field, how ever, and hereafter we will hear from him in concoction with Smith A Small, as the editor of the Atlanta Telegram. Mr. Harris, late tho faceteous editor of the Savannah News, is engaged on the editorial staff of tho Atlanta Constitution. Ho was afraid of another outbreak of the fever in Savannah, and left thus early be fore next summer. The local editor of the Commonwealth, on his side of the last issue of that paper, says; “The man trying to struggle through life without subscribinging for the Oommonu'ealth, is on tho wrong track to fortune.” The heavy editor on the other side announced the suspension of the paper. Anothor chance is afforded tho people to visit a jubilee iu Atlanta. This time H. 1. Kimball wants them to come together from all parts of the State and Jubilate over the first loom placed in his factory. These jubilees and meetings in Atlanta are becoming too seldom. Judge Tompkins, of the Savannah Cir cuit, has been quite sick in Atlanta, but Is convalescing. Atlanta notes are quite current among our State exchanges. An Atlanta note is good enough to be current anywhere.— Constitution. Our friend Is correct. They ought to bo good, for nearly everybody has them. DOWN THE CHATTAirOOCHEK. On Board Steamer Bio Foot, ! November 20,1876. j Dear Times We left Balnbridge Mon day last, Oapt. Walter Fry, commanding. Col. Barden was among the distinguished passengers, and killed two men for chang ing a liquid, he liked for one which we thought was pleasant, 1 viz: npiritus fru menti for molasses and water. The corpses were disposed of.ln a marine way, and we yet livo. That noble and chivalrous soul, Cox, of Harris county, was undoubtedly the life of the party. To him please express our thanks for more than we anticipated, in the dance alone. Frank Markham, with his Ox-Foot ties, eclipsed us all in the “light, fantastic toe.” En route, wo had the pleasure of meeting the accomplished Miss White, of Greenwood, Fla.; also the Misses Bryant and Gammon, of Green wood. At Woolfolk's bar we were de tained for Beveral hours, not on acoount of water, but the Big Foot was heavily loaded and could not stem the tido. Captain Fry, although young in the capacity of Master of a steamer, under stands his business, and every depart ment under hts management was con ducted much to his credit. Loug may he live to command! Btrd. An Overanxious Man. From tho Detroit Freo Press. | Ho was around yesterday alternoon in quiring after “the latest,” and he looked bo hard up and knocked about that many wondered what possible benefit a political viotory could be to him. When they made bold to ask him, he replied: “Well, you see, my brother Bill is fish ing for the office of Seoretary of War.” “Ho is, eh ?’’ “Yes, sir; and if ho gets it ho will get brother Sam appointed Revenue Collec tor.” “Yes.” “And then Sam will get the old man ap pointed rostmaster.” “Yes.” “And the old mao will get my brother in-law on as a letter carrier.” “Yes." “And my brother-in-law will use his in fluence to get me appointed weighmaster of the Western District, and then the whole family will walk around in clover knee high.

Among the rare old books most careful ly treasured by bibliomaniacs in this coun try, none is more valued than Eliot’s In dian Bible. There are but few copies of tho first or 1663 edition extant, and It is very rarely that ono of these is offered for sale. Tho copy sold on Tuesday night from tiio Menziea collection is an excep tion, as it has been sold and resold seve ral times since it was received here from England in 1861. Never until Tuesday night, however, lias it changed hands for less than one thousand dollars. In face of tho fact that it had been recently ren dered perfect, and that its real value had been enhanced by perhaps tho most beau tiful and costly binding with which a book was over garnished, it commanded only S9OO. There are but twenty-six copies of the edition in 1663 In this country. Of these tho New York Historical Society owns one, the Long Island Historical Society one, James Lenox two, T. W. Field, of Brooklyn, one, the Hon. Henry C. Mur phy, of Brooklyn, two, and the Hon. Samuel B. Gardner, of Easthampton, L. 1., one. Mr. Gardner’s copy is the only one known to have been printed with out a rubricated title page. It was given to one of his ancestors, then “Lord of the Isle of Wight,” (now Gardener’s Island,) nearly two hundred years ago, by tho last Indian missionary in the Massachusetts colony, and Is held by the owner as be yond price. The Menzies copy which now goes to Providence, R. 1., where there are already two—one in John Carter Brown’s librury, and one In the library of Brown University—was a duplicate from the Bodleian Library at Oxford, and was brought here in 1862, lor sale at SI,OOO. It was bought by Mr. Bruce, and in 1868 was sold to Joseph Sabin, who purchased It for Mr. Rice’s library In Chicago, at a cost of $1,150. Discovering that the book wan ted the table of contents, Mr. Rice, after much trouble, succeeded in purchasing for a large amount, the missing leaf, and this mado bis copy perfect. In 1870, Mr. Rice sent his collection to Sabin for sale, and the Elliott Bible was bougt by Mr. Boulton, for one thousand and fifty dollars. He afterward sold it to Sabin, who, in turn, sold It to Mr. Menzies. It is now absolutely perfect throughout, and is a genuine first edition from the title page to the colophon. The binding, which was done by Bedford, is a magnifi cent specimen of this artist’s work. There are but two persons in the world who can receive any spiritual benefit from the, study of this rare work, name ly, Col. J. Hammond Trumbull of Connec ticut, and Professor S. S. Haldoman of Pennsylvania; and even they must ex perience a feeling of groat distrust In their ability to grapple with some of its hen deoasyllables.

ROBNIAN women, THK FAIR HEX OF THE DANUBIAN FBI NCI FAI.TTIFS-MAIDENS AH TAX AS prize nos. lr.au lull Correspondence New York Timer.: Of the fatr sex little can l>e said In their praise, although there were plenty of sfe clmona to judge from. They wore light colored tunics, with two or three aprons above,and short fur-trimmed jackets, em broldcred in blue or scarlet, according to their religion. Some of the older ones had on long cloth pelisses, open in front over linen trousers reaching to the ankles, with slippers or boots of colored leather, and among the poorer classes theOpanka san dal. The usual coiffure was a scarlet skull cap, wound around with plates of their own hair Interwoven with small coins, but some few had on folds of linen with a flow er coquetlshly stuck on one side, after the maiiner of the peasantry of the Abruzzl. The Mussulman women were dressed much like their co-religionists of Southern Turkey, except that the unmarried girls wear no veils. This is a peculiarly Bos nian prerogative of the fair sex. which possesses another unknown, elsewhere in Islam, to-wit: The right to choose its husbands and to converse freely from their casements with any gallant who may wish to indulge In gossip or flirta tion. Nor does this unorthodox license, denounced by strict Mohammedans as an abomination in the sight of Allah, appear to be attended by any evil results. Mar riage Is the consequence of Inclination, not of family arrangement, but once by the hymenial knot tied, the veiling be comes more rigorous than in the other provinces of the empire. At Constantino ple, and in BoumeUa, the diaphanous gahsmak, at least, leaves the eyes and forehead bare; in Arabia, Hyria and Egypt, among strict observers of the Ko ran, a horse hair mask Is added, which entirely conceals the brow, but here every matron must wear two handkerchiefs, one over the chin, mouth and nose, the other superpoeed and attached to the head dress, with only a narrow line of light be tween them, through which she can see what Is on the ground in front of her feet, so that, If she would glance at the person with whom she is conversing, she must throw her head backward, and stand, as It were, entirely upon her heels. Naturally, these dingy bundles of old clothes are as spiteful and decorous as their ynunger sisters are the opposite, for it must be confessed that the Bania luka damsels are not a bit shy, and stand being looked at with much complacency. I failed, however, to discover any beauty among them, at least according to our standard, which is different from that of the Turks, with whom immense “embonpoint” united to extreme youth Is the groatest of ail attractions. Conse quently, the first care of the Bosnian mother is to prepare her daughter for the hymenial market, nor does sho think she has fulfilled her duty until, by the priva tion of all exercise, by repeated baths, and a very nourishing faranacious diet of a prize pig. Many certainly had most dazzling complexions, but this is not as tonishing when one remembers the abuse made of cosmetics by all classes and re ligions in the East. Among It lie dwellers in the plains, dark hair and eyes are common; among the mountaineers, blue eyes and auburn or flaxen hair are gener ally noticed. Their hands were of course stained with henna, which gives them the appearance of having dabbled in tar water, although to the poetic ntind it should be an attraction, as it is supposed to be a souvenir of the rainbow-tinted wings worn by our Mother Eve—accord ing to Moslem tradition—before she was driven from Paradise. Murder Will Out. A few years ago “August Flower” was discovered to be a certain cure for dys pepsia and liver complaint. A few thin dyspeptics made known to their friends how easily had been cured by its use. The great merits of Green’s August Flower, became heralded through the country by one sufferer to another, until, without advertising, its sale has become immense.

New York Letter ft ChinqfS Yflbnuc j There is a young man and his name Is Joseph. His other name is Ku chenback, which is neither elegant nor euphonious. Joseph Is sixty yeursold, a husband of a second wife ami fai her of a numerous family. In this respect hediftered from the orig inal Joseph, but in another respeet ho resembles him. In a word, he was beguiled and tempted, and, al though young Joseph was innocent, he bad strength enough to resist his Mrs. Potiphar; but when old Joseph was tempted he yielded, and Mrs. Potiphar was happv. Her other name is Dtilong, and she is a French woman. Joseph left his own abode and took up his resldenoe with the other, and, as a change of cli mate was necessary for his health, he removed to Elizabeth,New Jersey. There he Introduced Duiong as his wife, and even insured his life for her benefit. After six months he tired of her—did this Joseph—and left her. Then her French blood rose up and cried for vengeance, and she haa him arrested for desertion. When the case was called, and the Justice had heard the facts of the unlawful co habitation, he suggested marriage as a reparation; but Joseph stopped him by exclaiming: “My God, Judge, would you have me marry a woman who has seduced mo ?” That sound ed nicely for an already married man, and now Joseph is lingering in jail awaiting trial for a stronger cnarge arising out of his abandonment of his lawful wife and children—another monument of masculine depravity. Basting the Baron.— The remains of Baron De Palm are to be cremated by the Theosophlsts at Washington.
