TICKLING A WOMAN.
. A few nights ago nne of onr citizens, j
residing in the southern part of the citj, was
arbused from his slumbers bj the cries of a
, woman, mingled with certain untranslatable
oaths, uttered in the vernacular of Fao'erland.
He hastily drew on his inexpressibles,
and thusting his toes into a pair of slippers,
rah across the street to the scene of the
disturbance. Placing his shoulders against
the door, he leaned his weight (one hundred
and sixty) against it, and the next moment
tumbling headlong into a small apartment,
- which was the chamber of Gotheib Gotenschneider.
Picking himself up and looking
around, he beheld a novel spectacle. Be,
fore him stood the venerable Gotleib, a di'
minitive figure, standing about five feet four,
without stockings; a woolen night cap was
drawn over his ears, and was the only garment
that ornamented his person, except a
l:-'- J.S.4 mKInli wnft ft world too wide
iUVAVlJ OUKVj nutvu -w ? .
for "his Lilliputian proportions. Gotleib held
in his hand a stout hickory hoop-pole, which
wap raised in the attitude of striking. Before
him was a woman of the dimensions of
a haystack, dressscd with some taste, and
wearing a jaunty bonnet on the back of ber
head. This was Christini, the portly frow
of Gotenschneider.
. Tears were coursing down her fat rosy
cheeks, and she was talking low Dutch with
amazing volubility.
"Hotwts this ?" said the citizen, "have
you been whipping your wife again, Got
. leib ? Didn't I tell you that the next time
I caught you striking a woman, I'd lam you
out of your boots ?"
"Mine Got! I no vip mine vife, never at
all, I shust tickly her mit dis leetle stick to
make her feel gooder as better."
"Well what in the thunder do you want
tQ tiolcle her for, as you call it ? What has
she done now ?" "Vy,
you see, mine vife ish one foorst
rate frow; der neber was so gooder woman
as him, but sometimes she go wrong; de
debil git in her head and she make me nev
er so mad. Dis night 1 go to mine snop to
vork, and I tells mine frow to stay here and
keep cferhaus. Yen I comes pack, she pees

to der peer bans and dere I finds mine frow
drinking lager peer mit von American feller
vat you call Shinkins; he run on de riber
T and he comes ever so many times, and he
talks to mine frow eber so much. I shust

Shinkins and mine frow both drinking lager
peerout of von mug, and Shinkins he had
von arm on de middle of mine frow, and she
no say von tarn vort, but shest let him hug
her ever so hard as I never did see. Den

and kisses her von, tree, four times, and it

The New York Evening Post publishes

The sufferer tells his troubles feelingly, and
leaves the imagination free to supply any
deficiency:

The Assets of a Merchantile House.
?A commission merchant, whose name it
as familiar on Buffalo Change as household
words, and whose wit and humor never 'dry
up' under any condition of things, a few
years since went to Oswego, and, as has been
publicly announced, has 'suspended.' It is
now said of him that an eastern banker,
whose institution was among his largest creditors,
paid him a visit with a view to look
into bis affairs. After the usual salutations
and greetings due to politeness, a colloquy
something like the following is said to have
occurred.
'Well, Mr. , I understand that you
have suspended.
'That is so, I believe, sir/
'Yes?well, as our bank is y<5hr largest
creditor, we should be glad to know what
shape the affair is likely to take.'
'Certainly, sir.'
'What is your indebtedness ?'
'Well, sir, as near as I can get at it, I owe
about 8550,000.'
This was a poser?things began to look a
little' blue.
'Have assets, I suppose V
'Certainly, plenty of assets.'
'Well, to what amount, and in what do
they consits?'
'Well, sir, I value my assets at an amount
greater than my indebtedness, and they consist
of a wife and four fgt babies, worth more
than 8100,000 each.'
The banker looked astonished, while the
merchant proceeded to whistle the air of 'Old
Uncle Ned,' and keeping time to the music
with his fingers, on a desk which
had kept a history of his rise and fall in
trade.
"None of No Sort."?On last Monday
evening, shortly after the news was received
in this city of the suspension of
some of the South Carolina Banks, we
met Tops making a bee line for home, consternation
depioted on his countenance, his
eye in "fine phrenzy rolling," and his coattail
describing an angle of about forty-five
degrees. "Hallo! Tops !" said we, "what
is the matter ?t' "Matter!" said he, and
he gave us a look which contained a cart
load of misery, and no little disgust for our
phlegmatic temperament; "Matter! why, all
the South Carolina Banks are breaking, and
I am going home to see if I have got any
bills on any of them !" and he struck off into
a dog-trot, looking as lugubrious as though
he had just lost his grandmother, who died
with a will cutting him off with a shilling.?
On yesterday morning we met him again,
"looking as pleasing as a basket of chips,"
and as happy as a dead pig in the sunshine.
Teour friendly salutation he replied. "Well,
old fellow, by George, I'm safe; 1 went
home and examined my pocket-book, money-drawer,
and every place where I ever
keep money, and, by thunder, as good luck
would have it, I never had narry bill on a
South Carolina Bank, and none of no sort.
That's what I call luck," and he went his
way, looking as well pleased as if his grandmother
had died, and left him the heir to
forty wool hats and twenty-five blind bridles.
How many Tops are there to be found in
every community??Columbus Sun.
Married vs. Unmarried.?"You've
no wife, I believe," said Mr. Blank to his
neighbor.
"No, sir," was the reply, "I never was
married."
"Ah," said Mr. Blank, "you are a happy
dog."
A short time after, Mr. Blank,, in addressing
a married man, said?
"You have a wife, sir?"
"Yes, sir, a wife and three children."
"Indeed," said Mr. Blank, "you are a
happy man."
"Why, Mr. Blank, said one of the company,
"your remarks to the unmarried and
the marrried seems to conflict somewhat!"
"Not at all?not at all, sir. There is a
difference in my statement. Pleas be more
observing, sir. I said the man who had no
wife was a "happy dogand the man who
had a wife was a "happy mannothing
conflicting, sir, nothing at all. I know what I
I say, sir!"
t&*A young lady once had a beau. He
was anxious to to enjoy some private conversation
with his channel, but there were
two children in the room. The gentleman
"looked to see them sent to bed, but he was
disappointed. The youngest child, a little
boy about three years old, slept with the
young lady, andjhad no idea of retiring without
his bedfellow. Stretching his chubby
length upon the carpet, be watched the
twain with resolutely wide-awake eyes, untill
the bell rung for nine, when, his patience
became exhausted, he raised his head and
said to the visitor. "Nine o'clock is bedtime.
Don't yon think your mother wants
you now ?" The mingling of embarrassment,
vexation, and mirth produced by this hint,
which was-as good as a kick, was curiodfe to
behold. Sonny was sent to bed after that,
and the young gentleman had a chanoe to
"free his mind." I

To Manage a Peaking Horse.?Id
the "British Sportsman" we find the following
hints respecting the management of a
rearing horse, which strikes us as being
worthy, as it is easy of trial:
Whenever you perceive a horse's inclination
to rear seperate your reins and prepare
for him. The instant he is about to rise
Blacken one hand and bend or twist his head
with the other, keeping your hands low.?
This bending compels him to move a hind
leg, and of necessity brings his fore feet
down. Instantly twist him completely round
two or three times, which will confuse him
very much, and completely throw him off
his gnard. The moment you have finished
twisting him rohnd place his head in in the
direction you wish to proceed, apply the
spurs, he will not fail to go forward. If the
situation be favorable press him into a gal
lop ; and apply the spurs and whip two or
three times severely. The horse will not
perhaps be quite satisfied with the hrst defeat,
but may feel disposed to try again for
the mastery. Should this be the case, you
hare only to twist him, &o., as before, and
you will find that in the second struggle he
will be more easily subdued than on the former
occasion; occasion; in fact you will sec
him quail under the operation. It rarely
happens that a rearing horse, after having
been treated in the way described, will resort
to this trick a third time."
A Calf shoqld never be changed suddenly
from all milk to all grass, but it should be
brought about gradually; otherwise the
growth may be injuriously affected. The food
with which they are fed has a powerful influence
on the milking properties of all cows ;
and the mode in which they are reared has a
considerable effect on their capacity to give
milk. In milk we have all that is necessary
for the growth of the young animal, and it is
the type and representative of all food; for
unless an aliment contains the principles of
milk, it is not fitted for the promotion of the
health and perfect development of the body.
It is a bad thing td feed calves on skimmilk,
as both the butter and casein have been
removed in the shape of cream. Earl Spencer,
of England, who was very successful in
weaning his calves, fed them first with new
milk and then with skim milk and meal?the
latter supplying the necessary nitrogen and
itrogenized materials.
Exercise for a calf that is to be ruised is a
necessity, but for all fatting animals the
reverse. Care also should be taken not to
expose them to the cold, and particularly to
sudden changes. Much exercise of milk cows
decreases the production of butter, and
increases the yield 01 casein, roor pastures
pruduce, most cheese, and stall feeding most
butter.?Patent Office Report.
A Singular Fact.?A stock raiser of
Fayette county, Ky., lost eight colts one
season, four of them thorough-bred, and four
of tbem commou scrub stock. He- amputated
the legs of all of them, and boiled off
the flesh, cleaning the bones thoroughly, to
learn, by examination, what difference, in
respect of bone, there was, between pure
blooded and common ones. On taking the
bones of tkc^ thorough-bred, and holding
them up to the light, he noticed that they
were almost transparent, as much as white
corn. lie tried the experiment with the
bones of the inferior stock. They were opaque,
and transmitted light no more than
buffalo horn. He then tested the bones by
weight, and found the thorough-bred by far
the heavier, showing their superior substance,
and solidity. They were hard and dense as
ivory. , . *
To Drive Away Rats.?Some years
siDce a correspondent of the Boston Caltivator
recommended potash for the purpose.?
The rats troubled him very much, so that
he felt justified in resorting to extreme measures
to effect their expulsion from his premises.
He pounded up potash and strewed
it around their holes, and rubbed some under
the boards and on the sides where they
come through. The next night he heard a
equealling among them, which he supposed
was from the caustic nature of the potash
that got among their hair, or on their bare
feet. They disappeared, and for a along time
he was exempt from any further annoyance.
A Sweet Potatoe Pone.?Stir togethertill
very white, three qoarters of pound of
of fresh butter, and three quarter of a pound
of powdered white sugar, addiDg two table
spoonfuls of ginger.' Grate a pound and a
half of sweet potatoes. Beat eight eggs, very
light, and stir them gragually into the butter
and sugar, in turn, with the greated
sweet potatoe. Dissolve a teaspoonful of
salacratus or soda in a gill of sour milk, and
stir it in at the last, beating the wnole veryhard.
Butter the inside of a tin pan; put
in the mixture and bake, it four hours or
more. It should be eaten fresh.
To Stop Bleeding from the Cavity
of an Extracted tooth.?Noticing the
case of Mrs. Locke, who bled todeath, in consequence
of the extraction of a tooth, Dr.
Addington, of Richmond, Va., says he never
fails to stop the bleeding by packing the
alveolus from which the blood continued to
trickle, fully and firmly with cotton moistened
in a strong solutiou of alum and water.
He cured a brother physician in this way,
whose jaws had bled for two weeks.
i??i ?
Fall set Trees.?While in the West,
two years since, an old nursery man told me
he had been setting fruit trees for fifteen
years, and those he set in the fall bore annually,
while those set in the spring were
very indifferent bearers. My experienoe
and observations satisfy me that fall-setting
is much the best, aside from this consideration.
They should be well mulched the
first winter to protect the roots from frost,
and the next summer, to guard against
drought.
Cultivation op Vines.?I have, until
this season, dug holes in the ground, filled
them even full with manure, then planted
my seeds. The cold rains of spring and
early summef would nearly drown them out
by water settling into the holes, the vines
make a slow growth and be easier devoured
by the bugs. I now build my hills upon
the top of the ground; the rains do not affect
them but to make them grow. They
come forward more rapidly, and defy the
ravages of the bugs.
Bed Bugs.?The weed known as "smart
weed which may be found in abundance
along ditches, roads, lanes and barn yards,
in an effectual and certain destroyer of the
bed bug. A strong decoction is mado of
the herb, and the places infested with the
insects well washed with it. 18
