I take my banjer frum de wall.
I pick de big strings and de small.
And out d&r comes insoluiun straine
A reek-wum for de mighty slain.
Dar’s Morton in de bluddy shirt,
Dar's Hartranft sprallin’ iu dedirt.
I>ar stiff and Btark lies bold Bristow,
By too much honesty lade below.
De Jewel dat did use to shine
I look for but I cannot fine;
While Conklin* dun shot and open his eyes,
An* ded as any herrin’ lies.
But now de strings doo giro a wale
Dat tells uv all de saddest tale;
De great man from do of Maine,
We’ll never see his like again.
Oh, where is he ? Oh, where is Blaine?
Dom Cincinnati fellers sot
An' filled dar guns wid liis own shot;
Dey blazed away an* in amaze
Dey saw him go off in a htuc.
Bleak blow de winds from State uv Maine,
Cold am de snows and cold de rain;
But colder is de sad refrain
Dat sings de chilling fate of Blaine.

WIT AAII HUMOR.
The New York J Car Id says: Blaine
is likely to be of some use to the
country yet. He will kill the tlrst
haud-orgau man who plays “Mulli
gan Guards” in his hearing.
A young man of Cleveland objects
to the new silver coins because the
Goddess of Lioerty is dressed just
as she was lifteen years ago, aud
"That’s so horriblyold fashioned.”
A Detroit citizen notifies the'eom
mon council that his ancestors have
been dug up by the city, and he
wants pecuniary compensation.
Dust for dust is the way he reads
it, and he makes no bones about it
either.
The parents of a South-side young
lady who invariably usk her what
the text was upon her return, as they
suppose, from the evening church
service, have figured out lately that
their minister has preached on
“Blessed are the peace makers” 117
times during the last year.
A Texas revivalist who saw a lady
writhing at a camp meeting thought
that his words had made an impres
sion, but saw his mistake when a
lizard was taken out ot her bustle.
An editor, quoting Dr. Hall’s ad
vice to “eat regular, not over three
times a day, and nothing between
meals”adds: “Tramps will do well
to out this out and paste it, on their
bank books.”
A Chicago wife asked for a divorce
because her husband was habitual
ly drunk. He admitted being hab
itually drunk, and pleftded that as
an excuse for not bringing the suit
himself.
Little Alice was crying bitterly,aud
on being questioned, confessed to
have received a slap from one of her
playfellows. “You should have re
turned it,” unwisely said the ques
tioner. “Oh, I returned it before,”
said the little girl.
“Mrs. Henry,” said John, the
other evening, “why are you like
the devil?” And when she went for
him with the needle he had hardly
time to save himself by a quotation
about “sowing tares”—thevother rea
sons he prudently kept to himself.
An eminentphysician was once re
counting to Hector Malet the sad
death of one of his patients. “Poor
fellow!” he sighed, “he breathed his
last in my arms.” “Had you not
better say in your hands, doctor?”
queried Malet.
“How much did he leave?” said a
lady, on learning of the death of a
wealthy citizen. “Everything,” re
sponded the lawyer; “he didu’t tako
a shilling with him.”
A Scotch gentleman of fortune on
his death-bed asked the minister
whether, if he left a large sum to
the Kirk, his salvation would be se
cured. The cautious minister re
sponded : “I would not like to be
positive, but it’s weel worth trying.”
A boy defines salt as “the stuff that
makes potatoes taste bad when you
don’t put on any.”
Two ladies contended for prece
dence at the court of Charles V. They
appealed to the monarch, who, like
Solomon, awarded, "Let the elder go
first.” Such a dispute was never
heard of afterward.
A Holyoke man had his revenge on
an enemy: he tied a rock to a cat’s
tail and anchored her in the back
yard for an all night serenade.
Now is the time for lovers to get
spooney over ice cream, she taking a
few pretty dabs at his vanilla and he
borrowing a taste of her chocolate.
Tltis process inspires confidence in
the dav when they will be throwing
corn beef and cabbage across the ta
ble.
A story is told of Martin Van Bu
ren, that when a candidate for office,
as he frequently was, tie once found
his wife weeping over a bitter perso
nal attack upon him in one of the
newspapers. “Why, my dear,” said
the wily Sage of Kinderhook, “I paid
fifty dollars to have that printed.”
The Herald, of San Antonio, Texas,
has a good many items about stage
robbing. It says: “Bobbing stages
has got to be such an easy amuse
ment, that when a San Antonio boy
is not on hand at dinner, the old man
says, ‘Just as like as not we will have
a stage robbery in our family before
night.’ ”
A female witness in a court in Plu
mas couuty, California, asked per
mission to return to the stand for a
moment, and this was her additional
testimony: “Well, what I wanted to
say is, that the complainant’s wife
had the reputation of wearing false
teeth and doing her hair up in paper
to make it curl. I forgot to swear to
it when I was up here before.”
Two girls, near Adams, Jefferson
county, says an exchange, determin
ed last week to “go in swimming as
the toys do.” They had a splendid
batb, in a secluded place,but a stroll
ing cow took up a position near their
clothes, and on the opposite
bank all the afternoon and called
that cow hard names. They were re
lieved when a farmer’s boy came af
ter the cow at milking time.
A milkman was lately seeking the
aid of the police to trace the where
abouts of a family who had left the
neighborhood, owing him eighteen
shillings. “Well, I suppose there
VOL. 2.
was nine shillings worth of water in
that milk account,” remarked the
inspector. “That’s where it galls me
—that’s where it hurts!” replied the
dealer. “They were new customers,
and I hadn’t commenced to water the
milk yet!”
"James, my love, perhaps, what do
you think? perhaps, may be you
know, dear, it just occurred to me
that it might be cheaper to get a
couple more silk dresses this sum
mer, because, you see, the mulberry
has blighted the silk in the south of
Franco, and the crop will be short
and dress goods awful high next
year.”
Brigham Young spoke a few words
of wisdom the other day to a youth
ful Chicago enthusiast who called
upon him. He said: “Young man,
be sure you are through with your
search for the kind of partner you
want—be sure you have got the pat
tern of the woman that suits you be
fore leading her to the altar. Don’t
wait till after marriage, as I did, and
then be obliged to keep on sam
pling.”
A timid young man was visiting a
beautiful young woman the other
evening, when, after a pause, she
said, looking at him closely, “Now, I
want to propose to you—” “You are
very kind,” said the diffident young
man, between gasps and blushes;
“but I am not wort hy of such happi
ness —and, in fact, none of our fam
ily are marrying people; besides, my
income is limited.” “No, not that,
said the young woman : “I wanted
to propose to you to get up a spelling
bee iu our village school-room.”
At a “wake” in St. Louis two wo
men, mourners,got drunk and fought
for the possession of a bottle of whis
key. One of them was killed; and
the coroner’s jury,convinced that she
was in the last, stage of consumption,
and would have died soon under any
circumstancea, returned this verdict:
“Mrs. Brundeg came to her death by
emaciation, aided by blows received
from Mrs. Fitzpatrick.”

City of Mexico, June I(s.—The mili
tary situation remains unchanged.
The Pronunciados are said to
have about 8,000 men badly
armed and provisioned, at
Flaxco aud San Juan de
Louos Plaoe, fifteen leagues apart.
The Government General Alatorre,
with 5,000 well armed and equipped
troops is at Apisco, at the junction of
the Vera Cruz. Mexico aud Pueblo
railroads, ready to march to the re
lief of either or these places if they
are attacked. Gen. Alatorre expects
re-int'orcements from Gen. Escope
dti’s command at Matamoras, by
way of Vera Cruz. After their arri
val he will commence active opera
tions against the pronunciados with
a part of his force. This will alter
the situation considerably and prob
ably give a death blow to' the revolu
tionary chiefs iu Oaxaca and other
States. The revolutionists treat
foreigners witli much severity,
especially Americans, who are all
iu favor of a constitutional gov
ernment.
Gustavus Nolte, an Amerioian citi

heres alone in the House of Repre
sentatives ; that Executive officers
squander money so long as the Con
gress appropriates it, and that there
fore a radical reform is demanded by
the people.
The vote on the resolution stood

made that not a quorum had voted,
