own a dog—black and tan terrier. He
Is a nice dog ; used to look very ferocious
and fly around the room when anybody
said "rats," although I never knew him
to catch any. But he was great at raw
beef. In that respect I never saw his
equal. He answered ; to the name of
"Jack." I suppose there must be sever
million dogs who rejoice in the same
cOgnomen. Jack strayed away a week
or two ago; left the manna of my house
for the flesh pots of home beguiling
stranger, I suppose. Missed him when
I came home ; house seemed empty
without him. His "bark" wasn't "on
the sea," or in the parlor, or in the sec
ond story front or anywhere else. Chil.
dren cried for him, while our Thomas
cat no longer mounted hurriedly tin the
chairs and tables as he approached.
I was distressed. I consulted my wife;
I advertised for him ; offered five dol
lars reward. Advertisement appeared
in the morning papers.
Ring at the door-bell about
Whole family in bed. Bose and put my
head out of the window. Man with two
spotted dogs that looked as if they had
just recovered from a severe attack of the
measles. Fellow looked up and wanted
to know "lf either one of them was
him." Don't use profane language; so
simply said, "no" and abut the window.
Door bell rang eighteen times within
the next hour. (Jot up at last and dress
ed. Began to eat my breakfast. Anoth
er ring at the bell. Short man with
shiny hat. Wore what my oldest girl
called "spit curls." Had a head like a
cast-Iron water spout and crooked legs.
Said he'd found my dog. Told him that
wasn't him. Saldhe knew it was, rath
er savage. Dog began to growl, and
looked hard at me. Assumed is mild,
persuasive tone, and described-my-lost
canine. Fellow said, anyhow he was a
better dog than mine, and he guessed he
would leave him. I said I wouldn't
have him under any circumstances.
Fellow pushed the „dog and said s-a-s
ketch 'em. Dog made a dash at me.
Springing inside, shut the door in
his face. Went In the parlor and watch
ed him leave through the front gate.
Saw another man coming in. Had a
ridiculous poodle with a brass collar
around his neck. Threw up the win
dow and told him that wasn't my dog,
so lie needn't bring him in. He eyed
me with a sarcastic style, and said I
couldn't afford to oem a dog like that.
Told him I didn't want to, either. Said
that dog lityl killed his nineteen rats in
four minutes, he had. Said I wouldn't
believe him if he crossed his breast to it.
Fellow then dared me to COMP ont. Said
he would poke me in the nose, or some
thing of that sort.
I didn't go out.
Another ring at the bell. This time a
fellow in a fur cap, a with yellow mon
grel that had but one eye. Asked MP if
I had loot a dog. Said yes. Fur cap
said he had found him, and wanted the
reward. Told him that wasn't my dog.
Fur cap wanted to know if my dog
wasn't named Jack. Said he was. He
then called his bilious-looking canine
by that name. Dog flapped his atten
uated tail against the pa'ement three or
Ibur times, and flung his unmanged
-optic around in a wild sort of style.
Wasn't convinced however, and the fur
cap left after breaking the third com
mandment in a most horrid manner.

Didn't seem to take kindly to his edu

had "fetched back that dog of yourn."
Told him that was not the one I had lost.
Fellow insisted that it was. Seemed
rather down-hearted because I wouldn't
take him. Asked if I didn't observe

in my front yard. Put the sash up, and
attempted to disperse the crowd. Crowd
commenced to talk all at once. Dogs
all howled, yelped, barked, and snarled.
Couldn't hear my own voice, and shut
the window in disgust.
Haven't seen my dog yet. Don't ever

him or any other dog. Have seen
enough of dogs to last me the balance

A BAll COUNTRY.—The Salt Lake Vi
delic says.a wayfarer went into the Oc
cidental Hotel In that place a short time
since to get a square meal. Having
planted himself in a chair at one of the
tables, he was confronted by the waiter
with: "What will you have?" The
hungry One fastened his eyes on the
waiter, and said, "What have you got
that's good ?" "Oh, we've roast beef,
corned beef, roast mutton, fried ham,
and boiled curlew." , "What the deuce
is curlew?" said the stranger. "curlew
—why curlew is a bird something like
a snipe." "Did it - fly?" "Yes." "Did
it have wings?" "Yes." "Then 'don't
want any curlew in mine. Anything
that had wings, and didn't leave this
country, I don't want for dinner."
SAGACIOUS Dow.—An English paper
says: "A lady, residing near Ayr, has
a pet terrier, which, among other ac
cornplishmente, performs the duty of
domestic letteXcarrier. The other morn
ing his tank was easy, for there was only
one letter, and away he trotted with it as
usual. His mistress was returning to
the house, and passing the window, was
alarmed ut seeing Fido, instead of laying
the letter on the chair, ton it in the fire.
Rushing into the room, the lady rescued
the epistle, with only one corner singed.
Judge of her surprise (and account for
the fact, ye sceptics, as best ye cans to
find the letter the indignant Fido had
tried to commit to the flames wa a tax
paper, with a charge of 7s. for himself!
The incident is the more singular, as
he never previously took any such liber
ty."
NOT GoNe TO fir.onv.—Some amusing
things occur sometimes in very solemn
places. - A Methodist class meeting was
being held lately, when a brother who
had not been present for a considerable
time arose to.speak. "Glad to see you
here, my brother," said the leader of the
class ; "how is it•with you?" "Oh," said
he, "since I met with you last, my wife
has gone." At this point he broke down,
when the leader, to encourage him, said,
"gone to glory, has she? Hallelujah!"
and commenced singing: "We have
some friends before us gone," &c., when
the brother interrupted him with, "No,
that's not it—she's gone and run oft'
with another man."
WirEs Bishop Asbury "run" the
Methodist Chureh,there was one circ tilt
in Virginia where the ladies were no
fascinating that all the young preachers
rent there weresoon taken captive. The
Bishop thought to stop this by sending
thither two decrepit old men, but, to his
great eurprise, both were married the
same year. He exclaimed in disgust:
am afraid the women and the devil
will get all my preachers !"
AT a fashionable dinner a ge ntlenitin
observed a person who sat opposite use a
tooth-pick which bad just done the same
service to his neighbor. Wishing to ap

I am no novelist, and have never as

George Washington Harrison Socrates
Clay Dobbs, (that's me) unfortunately
married one Amy Amanda Maria Lou

Democrat, my Amy has been a follower

I married her because I loved her.
6onie said I married her for "Dobbs' Cot
tage," hut that is u copperhead lie. It is
true, her father made us a present of the
farm and cottage, but what of that? it
was his daughter, and she had a right to
it. I was master of the situation until
recently. This suffrage question in
volved me in a very serioussllftleulty.
had taken special pains to tantalire Amy
about copperheads, butternuts rind sym

tion came up she gave me hark upon the
Negro equality question.
I fended the best I could, but found
the position was getting untenable, and
so 1 declared straight out for equality'
and went at it upon general equality
principles.
went my whole length and declared
for outright equality.
Our people had got patriotic and had
admitted the. Negroes into the public
schools, and I hail the honor of moving
first in that important step.
One evening a few weeks ago I came
home and Amy and I had a set-to on the
equality question.
The children had been at school that
day. and each had a negm next to them.
I saw Amy was•working her wits, the
result of which was an announcement
that if the children had M associate with
negroes, T Should too. •
I regarded the threat as an idle boast,
and thought no more of it.
A few days, after I notified her that
General and his wife wOlllll dine
with us. Her eyes sparkled. I knew
there was mischief brewing, but I could
not foresee it.
I advised her that the General, his
wife and I would be at the cottage at one.
And sure enough we were.
And Amy was prepared for us. She
had prepared an excellent dinner and
met us at the door to, welcome us, an
nouncing at the !ilune time that dinner
was ready.
So soon as we were prepared she led
the way to the dining room, and to my
surprise had spread a large table, and
bad a saucy old negro by the name . of
Crow, with his wife and the two children
that were seated next to our children at
school already at the table. She apolo
gized for her haste in seating her tirst
guests, assuming that she had concluded
we were not coming, and then proceeded
to formally introduce old Crow and the
Crow family generally to the General
and his wife as brother Crow, sister
Crow, master Crow and little miss Crow.
1 felt a good deal like crowing some
myself. My legs began to show Ultras
takable signs of elasticity. I felt as if I
could heave out any six negroes in the
neighborhood. But - I fully compre
hended the nature of the situation. The
General's wife was about to explode.
The General, although an earnest Radi
cal, could not suppress his olfactory
from becoming, slightly elevated. My
Amy was extremely polite, and chat
tered away apparently in one of her hap
piest moods. Old Crow sat back with
his thumbs in the armholes of his dilap
idated 01,1 vest, whilst his wife, with
folded arms, was assuming an sir of
maiden innocence,
Amy banded the General a seat by
the wench, which tilled up that side of
the table, and hurriedly seated the Gen
eral's wife by old gums and ivory. Then
gathering up the children seated them
beside their sehonl fellows, after which
she took her seat M the head of the ta
ble, and requested me to he seated at the
further end to wait upon the guests.
Pp to this time I had managed well.
But the general's wife arose and re
marked that she did not intend to bear
the insult further. At this the General
flew into a passion, and accused me of
purposely arranging an insult. I pro
tested, and accused Amy, and as I did
so old Scraggy stepped in. The General
remarked, "you old butternut, you are
nt the bottom of this." My Amy re
minded him that that was her home,
and no one should insult her father there,
find ordered him to leave.
The General called her a dirty huzzy
for insulting his wife, and at this old
Seragge bit him with the knot end of a
butternut limb. I sprang between them
to protect my guest, when old Crow
placed the General and I upon an equal
ity. In the melee the wench assailed
the General's wife and the fight became
general. Amy in the meantime expos-
tulating and counseling peace.
Finally we had all succetsied in resum
ing our perpendicular positions but
Crow, who was just then the special ob
ject of a charge from the General.
Amy was playing Pocahontas, by lean
ing over the old carcass, and succeeded
in causing the General to retreat.
She then placed her arms around him
and attempted to raise him. I blew uif.
, Making a charge upon old manhood, I
ruined .s calf skin.
Mrs. Crow patted me on the back with
a chair, whilst the young C*ol{4 set up a
regular down South jubilee.
But I elearisl them. out. I dld, indeed.
The last words I heard from old Crow
were, "You'r no gonfalon."

TERRIBLE ACCIDENT IN A COAI
MINE IN NAXONY.
The Newton (111amv.) Journal puldbdi
eq the following letter enntaining a full
account 4if a recent coal mine accident
which occurred with inthirty-flve miles
of the City of Frieberg, in Saxony. The
writer Any.: '
"An unusual and most terrible acei
dent—if the result of sues carelessness
as is charged upon the managers :41r the
mine deserves the name of welde 't—bas
just occurred in the little Saxnn vil age of
"Logan. I have not been able tb visit
the spot in person, but will glee 4s s con
nected an account as I can from te best
sources of information within lily' reach.
For a considerable time past the shaft
of the coal mine, the Neue Fundgube,
has been considered, by some at least,
unsafe, but no steps were taken toward
repairing it. A week ago last Monday
morning (July 1) the workmen upon
going under ground thought they no
ticed fresh signs of weakness and wanted
to return, but were not allowed to do so
by the captain of the gang. He did not
share their fears at all, but nevertheless
ordered three carpenters to go up and
make an inspection of the suspected spot,
and begin any repairs that might be nec
essary. But it was coo late. Just as the
three teen reached the peace the shaft
timbering gave way, and masses of
rook, earth and timbering fell thunder
ing into the mine These three men
succeeded with great difficulty in esca
ping with their lives. But their com
rades, more than a hundred in number,
the above-mentioned captain included,
were shut off at a depth of 1,600 feet
from all communication with thosu,rface.
-Constant efforta have been made to reach
the lower mine, but so far all have been
fruitless, and there now remains scarce
ly any hope that the unibrtunate mitten;
are still alive. By the telling in of the
shaft all circulation of air Vies stopped,
and there was no escape for the poison
ous gases which are so apt to collect in a
coal mine. The miners were exposed to
a temperature of from 119 deg. to 160 deg.
or more, and were very likely suffoca
ted within the first few hours of the ac
cident. Hopes were entertained at first
of being able to break tlitough the mass
by dropping heavy weights from the
mouth of the shaft. The principal break
was at a depth of about 2:50 feet front the
top, and the broken mass hung in the
shaft at a depth of 720 feet. Weights
were let fall this distance and gave at
first promise of success.
A passage was forced through suffi
cient to restore a circulation of air, and
measures were taken to let down provi
sions for the men. It was impossible
for any person to descend, of course, and
other plans were proposed, but all was
of no use. The first great breaking in
was followed by others on the same day
and the day after; the . circulation of air
was again stopped. Boring - machines

were then I
operation, but as yet
with equally unsuccessful results. For
ty-four of the men were married, and
leave 137 children. The Superintendent
of the mine was immediately
_taken in
charge by the Police, partly to protect
hint froth the fury of the populace, and
partly because an investigation is about
to be held, even if It le not already com
menced. It seems tliatneeessary repairs

coal the mine mould be made to yield
shove a certain quantity. This accident
has exeited lite lit ellest feelings of com
passion in the whole community. .it
was not thought possible that such a
thing could happen in Saxony, where
the Mille , are in general so carefully
managed. But In this ease there was
but one shaft for Ingress and egress,
and it would be impossible to run a gal
lery through from the neighboring mines
in less than a fortnight."
SFR4TITFTE FOR RAILROAD TIE.C.-A
foreign paper says that the "increasing
deurnea of cross-ties has given rise to a
plan, now being tried by the railroad
company of the Rhine, by which the ne
cessity of their use is avoided. The rails
employed are nine inches high (instead
of fire,) a little narrow on the top and
about three-fourths of an inch broader at
the bottom than the ordinary_rail, twen
ty-four feet long and nine hundred zell
pounds each iu weight. They are
buried Live inches in gravel, which is
covered with three inches of earth, so
that only the top of the rail remains
above ground. The rails are OW 1I ee ted
with chains, in the usual way, and the
two sides of the track are fastened to
gether, at intervals of three feet, with
round iron braces. It is claimed that
this construction is as safe as the use of
cross-ties. Whether-it is as economical,
time alone will show."

were sixty-two million:1; In 11016, the
Treasury estimates them at two hundred
