A Good Pus. A regular hoarder at one

for his adroitness, notwithstanding his
slowness of speech, was accosted by the
table waiter as to to whether a plate ol bash
would be agreeab'e or not, and his answer

When Is a cat lllio a teapot ! When yoii'io
Ak Incident or tbr Gold Panic. Here
is an Incident that transpired during tbe
tresendou 'gold excitement, when so many
fortunes were lost and won: A yonng man
who bad been In one of New Tork's largest
bankers' offices for some time and was tho
roughly conversant with tbe operations of
tbe "street" drew some $66(1 that ha had
saved and put in tbe bank and speculated
therewith. Fickle fortune smiled on him
and by Friday moroing he had made $15,
000 profit. Hi employers, surprised at bis
luck, advised him to invest that amount
with tbem and they would "makes bun-'
drwl thensand lor him. He very naively
replied: "Charley has made fifteen cool:
Charley will nop!" Chailey that night
was worth $1,000 Charley's employers
not lifteen cents. Such is lire; more strange
than fiction.
Sneinu in Meadvii.i.e The Meadville
Republican of tbe 85tta inst., brings us tbe
sad news of the death of Collin C. McClean
ny a pistol shot from his own hands, on
Saturday afternoon last, near the McUcnry
House, in Jtradville. Tbe deceased wa
a young man but 19 years of age,.. a resident
o t.cttysburg, this State, where bis parents
reside.- His father is a prominrnt lawyer
in tbe southern part of Pennsylvania, and
tbe deceased was highly respected at home
as a young man of promise, religiously in
clined, and withal one in whom , tbe com
munity placed the ntmost confidence. His
sad end is attributed to the fact that bis
eyes were growing very weak, and he labor"
ed under the impression that sooner or later
bo would bicome blind, and chose deatD
rather- than the misfortune of loosing his
oye-sight. He cime to Meadville at the
solicitation of bis patents, to spend some
timo with a relative near Meadville. think
ing that this change would benefit bis sight.
His death will cast a gloom over the quiet
Village of Gettysburg, and his parents will
deeply feel tbe loss of a beloved son.
The slung-sbot with which Twitcbeil, the
Philadelphia murderer, killed bis raotber-lo-law,
Mrs. Hill, has bee i found. It is a
pear-shaped lump or lead, the base of it be.
ing bollow, and the cavity is smeared with
blood. The handle of it is made ol strips of
leather being plaited together. Tbe lead
is very much battered, and there are about
half a dozen impressions of beads on its but
race. This corroborates tbo opinions or
several learned physicians, eubpcenafcd as
witnesses, who stoutly maintained tuh
out the trial that tbe wounds upon the skull
of Mrs. Hill could not have beeo caused by
tbe bloody poker which was produced at the
trial, and which was not at all bent.
Rip Van Winkle. Mr. James Fox, an
old gentleman of 65 years, and a citizen ol
Clarion county, mado bis first trip by mil
on tbe Frnnklin Branch one day last week
with Conduotor White. Tho locomotive
which moved the train was the first he bad
ever saw, and bis observations to the Con
ductor about railroad traveling were- de
cidedly original and amusing, ne is the
"Rip Van Winkle" of Clarion Jeatftitfe
Hepulicin.
A little six year old girl who uttended
church in a meeting house recently remod
eled, was enlarging eloquently on the beau
ties of tbe edifice, when a young friend
Interrupted her by Inquiring if she suppo
sed the minister preached any better than
be did in the old bouse. "Well," said the
enthusiast, "I guess be doss; at any rate
dinner tastes better when you have a nice
clean plate to eat off of." This settled tbe
matter.
A man by tbe name of Eke Ends, In
Greene county, N. Y., is stranuely deformed.
He is without ears, and never had auy. He
gathers sound through tbe .medium of his
mouth, and can bear anything said to bim
in an ordinary conversation. Equally as
strange, his hair Is black, with white spots
nearly as large as the palm of a man's
band interspersed through it. He Is about
45 years of sge, and is tbo happy possessor
of thirteen living children. Ilis occupation
is that of a ebairmaker.
Hera we rend of a clever invention: A
private soldier in California has invented a
new method of skimming milk. He fits'a
fine gauze seive to a hoop of tbe size of tbe
pan. The milk is then poured Into tbe pan
so as to a little more than cover the seive.
When the cream has risen the hoop Is lifled
and the eream is thus completely re
moved.
"Sim," the chief of the Washoe Indians,
ia dead. A newspaper published among tbe
Rocky mountains says of him: "Hewasa
good, though very dirty red man. He
possessed a well balanced bead of hair and
stomach enough for all be could get to eat,
His. regard tor truth was notable he never
meddled with it. He left no will, and bis
eBtate consiated of a pair of boots."
A yankee arllst recently painted a winter
scene so, true to nature, that a child which
slept near was frozen to death.

London, Oct. 25.
Nearlv all the metropolitan papers to-day
have oiituary notices of the late Earl
Derby.
Tbe Times, in an obituary on Lord
Derby, lavs: No man can be a statesman
without a statesmanlike temperament. With
this tbe Esrl ol Derby was never endowed.
He was too impulsive to resist tbe tempta
tion or miking sallies or enemies. His
sneer at the Italian struggles will always be
remembered as a proof of his recklessness in
speaking on foreign affairs. The Duke of
Wellington bequeathed to bim bis intluence
in the Houso of Lords, but the bequest
could not be executed, and tbe mantle of
tbe Duke's soldierlike virtues bad not de
scended on bis successor. Great as was bis
ascendancy among the Conservative Peers,
be never gained tne tonfldence of his coun-
ttyuien.
Tne Standard predicts that while the
present generation lives Lord Derby will be
remembered throughout his own province,
not only as an orator, scholar and statesman
of whom Lancashire may well bo proud
but as a man who in the direct trial took
bis place as leader in the work of relief and
charity, as the rich man who cared fur tbe
sorrows of tbe poor, and tbe great man who
respected the pride of tbe lowly, not as the
Premier of England, but as a kindly neigh
bor, generous friend, and Christian gentle
man.
