A correspondent of the American Xews
Reporter comes to the defence of the
muoh-abuBed ?'intelligent compositor."
He says: It is a notioable faot?and the
statement can be verified?that manu?
script is often placed in the hands of
compositors that cannot bo deciphered
by the writers themselves. How would
some of them like to see their effusions
in print exactly as thoy put it down on
paper? They, doubtless, would bo hor?
rified, and deny the paternity Of their
offspring.
Circuses have to pay a license tax of
$1,000 per day for exhibiting in North
Carolina. This was adopted oy the Le?
gislature as a reform measure. The
members counted on paying the State
debt by this circuitous means until it
was found the' clowns would not come
there at all.
A Delaware man married a woman be?
cause she was deaf, and ho thought she'd
e'eep her tongue. So she did, but when
he fell into the well and yelled himself
hoarse trying to make her hear, ho wished
that sho had ears a foot long and could
hear a whisper a mile away.
A Philadolphion named Keelcr has
discovered a vapor which is far more
powerful than steam as a motor, costs
nothing, takes up but little space, and
will move steamers around the world as
cheaply as sailing vessels, and will re?
duce freights to one-half rates.
London now claims to possess the
largest gas meter in the world. Its
capacity is Biaied to be the enormous
quanity of 150,000 cubic feet of gas per
hour, and the measuring drum delivers
for each revolution 1,000 feet.
Facts are constantly proving what a
lucrative profession journalism is. A
young Kentucky editor, whoso paper is
email and has been in existence, a short
time only*, has already $25,000 cash in
hand?just left him by a relative.
The latest thing out in the way of cele?
brations is a re-union on the grounds of
Dr. Bollard, of New Haven, a practicing
physician for fifty years, of about 1,000
persons at whose birth he professionally
assisted.
If everybody could feel themselves
able to paint up their houses and white-1
wash their fences, and plant flowers all
about their* premises and invite birds to
come and inhabit their lots, it would add
much to their happiness.
The great constitutional question now I
before the country is: In quitting Grant's
Cabinet, did Attorney-General Williams
resign his office and the Government,
landau both?
He who betrays another's secret, be?
cause he has quarreled with him, was
never worthy of the name of friend; a
breaoh of kindness will not justify a
breaoh of trust
At a, spiritual seance in Paris ?lately,
the spirit of Cartouohe, the famous thief,
was called up and came so practically I
that nearly every one present subsequent-1
ly missed a watch or purse.
Josh Billings has been writing for the
Erosa twenty years, and he doesn't know
ow to spell any better now than the day
he commenced.
On the Japanese coast there has lately I
been captured a whale, in the stomach I
of which was found a hide bag contain?
ing goid and silver coins.
The boy who finds pleasure in the suf-1
ferings of weaker things will never be a |
nobio, generous, kindly man?a gentle?
man.
Here is a first-rate conundrum: Does |
the Lord love a man who spends at
chnoh festival the money be owes his |
washer-woman?
The best writer is he who can convey I
the clearest thoughts in the shortest]
space.
Gentle behavior and liberality will
procure the lovo even of our enemies.
