Anna Dickinson's trials and tribulations,
and finally, her triumphs in reaching various
lecture'stands to the great gratification of
huge audiences, says the Rochester Demovrat,
have been frequently writteu about.
Once she crossed tho Hudson at Catskill on
a old day in January, very nearly freezing
and drowning on the way. At another time
she hired a special locomotive, as all other
,1a aaa*bIai>?11.?. nn/1 t Vtnrt arrftin fillA

was drawn a hundred miles in two hours by
six reindeer, standing bolt upright in a fairy
stone boat and handling the reins with the
dexterity of the class known as old sports.
Her latest adventure is graphically related
in the Jersey City Journal. She was engaged
to lecture before the people of Newark
Wednesday evening of last week at the
Opera House. She was a passenger from
Jersey City on the 7:10 evening train, of
which 0. H. Crane is the "gentlemanly conductor."
She intended to alight at the Market
street depot, but for some unexplained
reason she was taken to South Broad street,
some distance beyond When Mr. Crane's
train stopped ho found that the only
way he could get Miss Dickinson over the
swamp which lies between the tracks and
the street on which was a horse car, was to
take her on his back and wade through the
.t> mnd and quagmire, in some places knee deep,
to dry land. Miss Dickixson sa* there was
no help for it. and, covering her face with
her veil to hide her blushes, pot her arms
around Mr. C.'s neck, which, doubtless for
him was not an altogether unpleasant operation.
and left the rest to fate. When about
half way through the swamp of dangers,
the conductor called lustily to the driver of
the horse car, which was about to start, to
'hold on,' but the Jehu was dull of hearing,
bo the louder the oonductor yelled, the more
energetically (he driver whipped into a ran
his "jaded stated."
Hut we canuot continue this painful sceneSuffice
it to say that the conductor finally
yelled " bloody murder;" that some passengers
on the car heard the cry, and finally
both Miss Dickinson and her jaded steed
were lifed up to dry land and happiness.
" Anna." concludes the Journal, " never
looked prettier, smiled sweeter, or delivered
her thoughts in a more musical tone than
she did on last Wednesday night, and it was
noticed all through the lecture her eyes fair
41 - _1!A
ly laughed at tne runny manner in wuicu
she was landed in Newark.
A Disgusted Landlord.?The Missouri
JiepuUiean is responsible for the following:
"Once on a time there dwelt in oar sister
city of Alton a worthy, but rather irrilablo,
gentleman, who was the host of a famous
hotel there, known as the Franklin House.
Numerous citixens drew their rations from
his liberally furnished table, and now a few
visitors from the rural districts preferred
the substantial fare of the Franklin House
to the mere pretentious board of the Alton
House. One day, in addition to all the
good things with which the dinner table
was loaded, there was at the lower end a
nice roast pig, that might have tickled the
palate of the gentle 'Ella/ who discourses so
eloquently of that savory viand. At the
conclusion of the meal, this roast pig remained
intact, when along came a belated drover,
who sat down beside it, and, having a good,
' -S *1. L _1_
wholesome appetite, soon aovourea me waoie
of it. The landlord looked on amazed, and
was puzzled to see where his profit was to
come in, after deductings dollar and a half
pig from a fifty cent dinner ticket. Giving
vent to his disgust, he said very sarcastically
to the drover: 'Isn't there something
else you would like to be helped to?' 'Wal
yes,' drawled the drover, 'I don't care if I
take another of them little hogs.' This was
too much for the equanimity of the landlord,
and. to keep himself from 'spontaneously
combusting," like Dorothea, he was compellto
rush out in the open air, where he oonld
give vent to a few unorthodox expressions
without being overheard by the elect, of
which he was one."
Trick oka Berlin Photographer.?
The Latest trick in Berlin photographs is
thus described: The artist pretended he
could make photographs of gentlemen so lifelike
that their dogs would be able to recognizethem.
When these photographs were
held up before the dogs of the owners, the
dogs would wag their tails and lick the pictures.
The other photographers of Berlin,
who wero unable to perform anything simi

covered bis secret. It was a very simple
proceeding. All he did was to cover the
photograph with a thin layer of lard, which
the dogs, of course, smelted, and then lickod
off. lie succeeded in taking in a good many
of the aristocracy, and has therefore been
sent to the penitentiary.
Pacific Gnano Company's
(CAPITAL $1,000,000.)
Soluble Pacific Guano.
rnms GUANO is now so well known in^all the
J. Southern State* for its remarkable'effects
as an agency for increasing the products of labor
as not to require special recommendation from
us. Its use for seven years past has established
its character for reliable excellence. The large
fixed capitul invested by the Company in this
trade affords the surest guarantee of the continued
excellence of this Guano.
The supplies put into the market this season,
are, as heretofore, prepared under the personal
supervision of Dr. St. Julien Kavenel, chemist of
the company at Charleston, hence planter may
rest assured that its <|itality and composition is
precisely the same ns that heretofore sold.

DIABOM^^mLES^
THESE Spectacles are manufactured from "MINUTE
CRYSTAL PEBBLES," melted together, and are
called DIAMOND on account or their hardness and
brilliancy.
It is well known that Spectacles cut from Brazilian or
Scotch Pebbles are very Injurious to the eye, because of
their polarizing effect.
Having been tested with the polarscope, the diamond
lenses have been fonnd to admit fifteen per cent, less
heated rays than any other pebble.
They are ground with great scientific accuracy, are
free from chromatic aberrations, and produce a bright
ness and distinctness of vision not before attained In
Spectacles.
Manufactured bj the Rpenoer Optical Manufacturing
Company, New York. For sale by
J. A. YOUNG, Camden, 8. C.
From whom they can only be obtained. No peddlers
employed.
The groat demand for these Spectacles has Induced
unscrupulous dealers to palm an Inferior and spurious
article for the " Diamond." Great care should be taken
to see that the trade mark (which Is protected )>y American
Letters Patent) are stamped on every pair.
