A Iff ah Eatek av Woi/vaa, -~On lion- j day fart, ao a Oaraan- farmer vm oomlng i oat of |ba wood*, about < twenty mi Je? North of Perry's Mills, ha found a man's boots, with the feet left in them, parti clea of clothing, a few bones, a dead dog and two dead wolves. The unfortu? nate man's name is not known as yet. The supposition is that he was going from one lumbering camp to another, when the wolres, who were starving on aooonnt of the deep snow preventing them from running down their game, overtook him in the road before he could climb a tree,.and devoured him. The story is probably true, as the wolves are famishing and will attack anything at this time.?New London (Wis.) Times. ? The minister who preached the fune? ral sermon of Napoleon III related the following anecdote: "It is told of him, that once, when a boy, he oame home to hie mother without shoes. His mo? ther asked: 'Louis, what have you done with yu?r shoes?' 'Mother,' he replied. 'I met a poor beggar, boy; he had no shoes, so I gave him mine.' That has been the history of the man all through his life." In New Orleans, recently, a city lady and a country gentleman paid a visit to the skating rink. After seeing the ladies and gentlemen hying around for a while, the lady asked the gentleman what he thought of the exhibition. "Oh," he replied, "it is pretty good, bnt not near as good as the blondes." "Yon just wait a moment until you see one of the ladies tumble, and you will think it is fifty times better," said his oompanion. "Do you retail things hero?" asked a green-looking specimen of humanity, as e poked his nose into a drng store. "Yes," replied'the clerk, thinking he had got a customer. "Then I wish you would retail my dog?he had it bitten of about a month ago." And greeny strolled* down the street with one eye closed. - Feeling is a muoh slower senso than sight. It is said that if a man had an arm long enough to reach the snn, and were to touoh that body with the tip of his finger, he would never find out whether it were hot or cold, as he would be dead before the sensation arrived at headquarters, which would require 100 years. "Iam not used to begging," said a little girl to a lady of whom sbo had asked alms, "because only two weeks ago my father was a merchant." "Why, ohild, how oould he be reduoed to pover? ty ao soon?" "My father took a bad two dollar bill at his peanut stand, and it ruined him," sobbed the ohild. Mr. Oakea Ames, it is said, considers himself to be the most hobest man in Congress.

Tho United States Snprome Conrt, in tho case of the Northern Central Railroad vs. Jackson, (see 7 Wallace, Supreme Conrt U. S., page 207,) decided that, when a Railroad mortgage is a joint ono.on property lying in two or moro btateB, tbo bonds se? cured thereby are not liable to bo] taxed by either of thoStatos; and the saroo principle relievoa them from taxation by County, City, or Town.

Tuibd.?Because the sale ot the first mort? gage bonda will extinguish the lloating debt of the road, and the prococils of the seoond mortgago bonds will bo exclusively applied to improving tbo road and adding to its equipments; thus enhancing tho value of tho property mortgaged. hFouhtu ?Because tl.o bonds aro coupon bonds, and the interost payablo in New York, Charlotte, Columbia or Augusta, at the op? tion of the bolder. Thus th y can be col? lected through any bank without txponso. Finn.?The buttincss of tho Road is rapidly increasing, and the property and franchise daily becoming more valuable?tbo not earn? ings for tho last five months being over fifty por cent, more than for tho corresponding months of tho preceding year. Sixth?Theso Bonds aro practically re? deemable in gold, for specie payment will cer? tainly bo resumed holore their maturity.

Finally.?As these Bonds havo a fixed value in Now York, Charlotto, Columbia aod Augusta, tlmv aro considered good collate? rals, on which monoy can always bo borrowed for tomporary purposes. J01IN B.
