^9HPr OKKAT EXCITEMENTIJJ FKOGTOWN. gpT The rooet remarkable dog fight on ]Sf record came off at Frogtown, on the ?P frontier of Maine, soune years ago. It engroeaed the entire community in one general and indiscriminate melee, intermediate lawsuits, distraction of the town, its downfall ami ruin. A fanciful genius named Joe Tucker, a man about town \ a lounger?witbont visible means of support?a do-nothing, loafing, cigar-smoker, good-natured, good-tor-nothing sort of a fellow, owned a dog?a slick, intelligent and rather pretty beast, always at Joe's heels, ana known as well as his master, and liked far more by the citizens of Frogtown. One dav Joe and his doer whs """ ~ O passing Bunion's grocery store, when a great piebald, ugly looking cut eared dos, standing under a wood wagon, bounded on to Tucker's dog, knocked him heels over head, and so frightened Bob Carter's wife, who was then passing towards her husband's blacksmith shop with his dinner, that she stumbled backwards, and her old sunbonnet flopped off, and scared the horse attached to the wagon. He started?hit Lathercm's barbers-pole, upset the load of wood, all ot which falling down Gumbo's refreshment cellar, struck one of Gumbo's children on the head, killing it for a time stone dead, and so alarmed Mrs. Gumbo, that she dropped a stew-pan of hot boiling oysters into the lap of a customer, who sat waiting for the savory concoction, by a table in the corner. Mrs Gumbo rushed for the child?the customer for the door. Mrs. Gumbo screamed? the child screamed, and the scalded customer yolled! " Oh ! oh I oh 1 oh ! my poor child 1" cried Mrs. Gumbo. "Eh, eb, e-c e-c-o!" screamed the child. "Oh! mnrder-r-r! Oh my everlasting sin, I'm scalded to ull eter.iity. Murder,' roared the customer in great pain. The horse, the part of the wagon, and some of the wood went on their mud MTMI* Tll? nwnav I>r tlin otrnnnn dog came out of the store, just in time to see Joe Tucker seize a liugc stone, and elevate it nbovo his head to demolish the strange dog, and not waiting to see Joe let drive, gave him such a pop in the back that poor Joe fell many rods up the street, and striking the toot of a long ladder, upon which Jim J?lborry was perched, paint pot in hand, some thirty feet from terra-nrrua, brought ladder, Jim and paint pot sprawling on the earth, crippling poor Jim for life, and sprinkling blue paint copiously over the broadcloths, satinets, laces and other valuable goods of Abraham Miller, a formal and even tempered Quaker, who ran out of the door as the two dogs had got fairly at it hip and thigh, nip and catch. A glance , at mattors seemed to convince Abraham of the true state of the case, he evidently saw that Joe's dog stood rather a bad chance, for the cartman's piebald dog was using Joe's dog rather roughly just about this time, and in an unusually elevated voice, called out to Joe Tucker, who had righted up, "Joseph Tucker, thy dog's fighting." /x T .1 i /* i i ? * ? n i .i - ijci em nguc it out," yeuea tne pugnacious owner of the strange dog, ".Let'em tight it out?I'll bet a load of wood my dog can oat any dog in town, and I can eat the owner." Wc have said that Abraham Miller was a mild man ; Quakers arc proverbially so. Bet the gauntlet thrown down by the stranger from tho country, stirred the gall of Abraham, and he rushed into the store, but quickly returned, followed by a large cur, whose collar he had just slipped, and thus released from his kennel in tho rear of the store. This dog was a long, powerful looking animal. " Friend," said the oxcited Quaker, " thy dog shall be beaten, I promise thee ! Hike! seize upon him ! Tuck, hero boy 1" and the dog wont at it. Bob Cartor, the smith, coming up in time to hear tho stranger's banter to any citizen of frogtown, and bent on pitching into somebody for the insult and dumage done to his wife, clamped the collar of the stranger, and by plantinrs a aaii'oa /vf ui?f It V\5?

"Don't the#strike nay dog Deacon Pugh!" cried Abraham Miller, advaswin^ towards Deacon who was about to cut loose right anil leit among the dogs with his cane. "Your dogs/" Bliouted the Deacon, with evident fervor. " Not my dogs Deacon Pugh 1" echoed the Quaker. "What did yon say so for then?" 6houted the Deacon. " I never said dogs Deacon Pngh 1" u You did," responded the Deacon, with excitement. "Deacon, theo speaks groundless," said the Quakor. "You tell a falsehood, Abraham M iller 1" "Theo utters a mendacious assertion," reiterated Abraham. " You?you?you lie 1" bawled Dea con Pngh. " Thee hast provoked my evil passion, Deacon Pugh," shouted the stal wart Quaker, "and I will chastise theo!" And into tho Deacon's wood wen I tho Quaker. Tho Deacon nothing loth entered into the spirit of the thing and wo leave them thus "nip ant] tuck," to look after Bob Carter who fil and fought and fought and fit, until Squiro Catchem and the town consta ble came up, and in their attempt tc {ireserve tho peace and arrest tho of euders, tho Squire wns thrust througt the window of a watchmaker, doing s heap of damage, while lawyer Hooker, in attempting to aid the constable, was hit in a mistake, by the furious black smith in tho 6hort, ribs, and wont reel ing down Gumbo's cellnr with a fright ful velocity 1 The friends and fellow churchmen of Deacon Pngh took sides against the Quaker antagonist, and the shop boys of Abraham seeing their employer thus beset, caine to the rescue; while two irishmen, full of fun and frolick, believing it to bo a " free fight," tried their hands and sticks upon the combatants indiscriminately ; so that in less than hulf an hour, the quiet and happy town of Frogtown was shaken from its propriety by one grand and sublimely ridiculous and terrific battlo. Ilcads and windows wore smashed?children and women screamed?dogs barked?dust flew? labor ceased?and so furious, mad miu excited, became the wboie community, that a cpiiet looker on, if there had been any, would certainly have sworn that tho ovil ones were in Freetown. A heavy thunder storm finally put an end to tho rows; tho dogs were more or less killed; a child severely wounded; a man ecalded badly, and such another scene was nover betore witnessed in Frogtown, and all occasioned by Joe Tucker's old worthless dog ! u Confidence."?The following incident is related of the lato run upon tho Savings Banks of New York city : " At a Sixpenny Saving Banks, a little newsboy, without a jacket, and only one suspender, (and that a string,} confronted the teller on Monday, and demanded to know whether " She was all right "?meaning the institution? because if she was, he didn't mean to lie scared, if everybody else was. lie had got 42 cents salted down there, and ull he wanted was his (the teller's) word of honor that it wouldn't spile. nn. . _11 ... -i i- ? *1.1 i aiivj iciier assured mm uiai ins monoy was ready for him at any moment.? " Nuft' 6aid, 'tween gen'I'men, but I don't want it," rejoined the vouth,and with a self-complacent, well satisfied uir, walked out of the bank. " Is she good ?" cried two or three more newsboys who awaited the result, at the door steps. " Yes, sir'ee !" ho replied " as good as wheat. Ketch our Dank, to stop! Yoos ought to seed tho goldI seed in dcr safe." "How much was they V inquired a companion. | " More'n a house full 1" was his prompt response. "An' yoos don't ketch die 'ere chile a makin' an old woman of hisself, and drawin' ont his money, I ain't 60 green, /ain't," Miw.pATrriNOTON.?" Your husband, I think, was always a man of liberal theological views," said the Kev. Mr. Sniffle to Mrs. Partington tho other morning, as ho dropped in on a tract penciling excursion. " un yes, .ranI was very free in his logical opinions all his life, bnt I think more so than over to tho close of it," said the dame. " I buried him when he was nigh on to seventy-five, and during his latter days ho was more of a libertine than I ever knew him afore." She bent her eyes on the corporal over tho mantel piece with a loving expression, and her spectacles began to grow dim. " Your husbnn.i was quite a liberalist, was he," said Mr. bniffies, w I am happy to be made acquainted with that fact, is these tracts treat?" " Yes, he was not only a federalist, but a regular black cockade federalist, wool dyed," mid the dame, who at that moment rose and looked daggers at Ike. He had got behind the J lev. gentleman and popped a big bumble bee in the pocket of his coat. Ike met the Her. gentleman an hour after 011 Boston Common with a rag ronnd his finger. Many persons talk like philorophers, 111a live like fools. 1 " Yoo musu't smoke here, sir," said the captain of a North ltiver eteambbnt, to a man who was smoking among the ladies on the quarter-deck. " I nmsn't ha I?why not ? replied he, opening his capacious mouth, and allowing the smoke lazily to escape.? " Didn't you see the sign ??all gentlemen are requested not to smoke abaft the engine. "Bless yonr soul,that don't mean me?I'm no gentleman? not a bit of it. You can't make a gentleman of me, no how you can fix it." So saying, he sucked away and took the responsibility. Littt.k Gibl?"

Little Girl?"Well, then, Pa, yon ought to whip mama's music teacher ': too, for he bit her yesterday right in ' J the month, and I know it hurt her, be 5! cause she put her arms around his j neck and tried to choke hira." >| Tiie other day Mrs, Snipkins, being ? unwell, sent for a medical man, and declared that she was poisoned, and l, that Mr. Snipkins did it. " I didn't ; do it," shouted Snipkins. " It's all ", gammon, she isn't poisoned. Prove } it doctor; open her on the spot?I am j willing." 1 j A certain cockney bluebeard, ovcr' co.ne by his sensibilities, fainted at the * grave of his fourth spouse. " What can we do with him?' asked a per' plcxed friend of his. " Let him alone," " said a waggish bystander, " he'll soon ( re'wive." Donas says that the people who en dorse notes aro called " sureties," for this reason, in nine cases out of ten, they are sure to be called on for tho monoy. , Striking Facts.?Before marriage L the inan is much struck with the woman, and after marriage tho woman is very much struck by the man.
