m BY JULIAN A. SELBY. One of the men who writes to the papers wants to know "What is tho advantage of boxing up clerks?" espe? cially those who sell tickets at railway stations. Perhaps it is ont of regard to tho safety of the public. If these fellows who ore generally so lavish-of impudence through n little hole in n partition had a free ohanco at humani? ty, they might be dangerous. The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals has compelled the sweet cider man up Broadway, New York, to take that dog out of that cider | mill, and he has substituted a "cullud pusBon." It was cruel to the dog, but it is all right for Sambo. Has the negro no friends in that community ? Where is the Civil Bights Bill? The gallant secretary of a life insnr ance company, being in command oi a platoon during the late unpleasantness in Arkansas, struck up the gun of ono of his men about to tire on n stall officer, with the exclamation: "D?n it. don't Bhoot at him; we've got a policy on him." Every fashionable woman in Paris hangs to her belt an alms-bag, a fun, a card-case, a pocket-book, an umbrella, a turnip-watch, a pin-cushion, some I ivory tablets and a little mirror. And the houb of women like these are ex? pected to knook the nonsense out of Germany some day. An Eastern debating society is try? ing to settle which is tho hardest to keep, a diary or an umbrella.
