THE GONG.
Sl,e,aking or gongs, a trio of old ladies,
delegates to the Wotnan's .aigh.ts Conven
tion, lately stopped at the ..Itrnett Douse,
T„hey had nev,cr beard a gong
and -cre give :)-;.'frodyrell's ovn desoription
it:
"We hadn' . t . been in our mem very long
jimmeny erimcny, of all the noises that
ever were heard—grvwlin, Nowlin,
gceechiu and thanderin, all rumblin up in
one tuns! of sound. We thought the day
of insurrfttior had come, and sure enough
:we were a*ft4ly frightened. :Hiss Sa...ffrou
vowed that it was Gabriel blowing his last
trump, and that lie was a little hoarse.—
Miss Skinflint, she bounced into her bed,
crying (nit "Feathers is non-conductors'."—
Directly. the 41-tired bowlin thing shut up,
and then was a sound of folks reaning down
Ftaits fit to break their necks. We were
teekla for the floor to rua too, when
Somethi knoe ke4. just then. We were
afraid to open,but at lest Miss SaflNn, bold
a, a lion, r,dvanced and peeped through the
key hole. There we stood shivering with
fright; jur-tat thi , ;}foment the door opened,
and who in the name of flogging du Sou
think it was? . 17;'hr nothing but a poor de
ceitful, yaller nigger, wanting to know it
ne could come to eupper.
"na,, the telegraphic um tn; i t iff exploded?"
asked Mrs. Skintlint.
")r tarn?" :ays he again.
"'Chen," said I, "what, was that infernal
howlin about, yott great stupid silly nig-
gPc."
"That Doi , o , jest rn - w? oh, nothing but
the gong, 1 reckon!" and the critter went
pi? grinning.
What a gong was we euulil,n't tell, but
from its voice lve guessed it was some sav
age beast about the house to skeer pc9ple
put of their senses
COULDN'T COPPER HIM
A corre.pondent, %I-riling to a Bo4ton pa

cents. Coppers are hardly known. I was
amused at a little incident wiiich I saw on
board of one of the Western boats. A man
from the north tried to pass ten coppers
upon a Sucker, a native of Illinois, for a
;dime.
"What be thPy?" inqnired the Sucker,
turning over the coppers in unfeigned ignu-

"I calculate they are cents," replied the
Northerner. "Can't you read?"
"I reckon rot," said the other; "and whate
more, old boss, I allow I don't want
What is cents, ntister?"
"I vow to the judges," said the Northern
er, "you are worse than the heathen! Cents
is money, sar':.ain! Ten of them are worth
one dime. Can't you se,e it says'EPluribus
Unum,' that's the Latia for Mail Columbia!
and here it is inscrihed, one cent."
•'Look here, stranger," reoponded the
Sucker, putting the thumb of his hand into
his ear, and inclining his f,ngers forward,
"you may ruu that saw on a Hoosier or a
Wolverine, but I'm clod rotted if you Yan
kee me with the contusive stuff."
And he marched off to the social hall to
indulge in a drink of corn whisky, in com
pliment to his own sagacity.
#X..",5'.4 good story is told at Washington
ofan old man whocame all the way from New
.Orleans exclusively to witness the Inaugu
ration ceremonies. The fatigue occasioned
by travelling, Jay and night, and some little
dissipation on the road, matte him feel fiery
tired and sleepy by the time he reached

had slept over a whole day and never saw
any portion of the inauguration eeranonies.

FISHING TN MINNECOTA.-A private letter
from Crow Wing, 11linnesuta Territory, says
that a party which lately visittd Otter Tail
Lake caught seven white fish of delicious
flavor, through the ice, all of which weighed
sixty-nine pounds. The writer seems to
consider this Otter Tail Lake region a par
adise. The Lake is between thirty and
forty miles in length. Mr. Andrews, in his
letters on Minnesota and Pacotah, describes
the country fur forty miles around the Lake
as "one of the 'finest regions now unoccu
pied." lle also says: •'in beauty, in fertil
ity, and in the various collateral resources
which make a farming country desirable, it
is not surpassed." Itappears that this land
is now open for settlers.
To Pa Sort: DAD Onuns.—The Euston Med
ical Journal mentions the following simple
and economical apparatus for overcoming
bad odors, and purifying any apartment
where the air is loaded with noxious mate
rials. Take one of any of the various kinds
of glass lamps—for burning campliene for
example—and till it with chloric ether, and
light the wiclz. In a few minutes the object
will be accomplished. In dissecting rooms,
in the damp, deep vaults where drains allow
the escape of offensive gases, in out-build
ings, and in short, in any spot where it is
desirable to purify the atmosphere, burn
one of these lamps. Oue tube charged with
a wick is sufficient.
DISTILLATION OF TIM BEf:T.—We see it
stated in our last English papers, that over
510,000,000 in value of beet rout spirits
were distilled in France the last year, while
the amount in 7.553, was only sloo,ooo—
showing the entire success of the busi
ness. This success has induced the excise
commis,ioncrs of England, to establish an
experimental beet rout distillery, which is
now in operation in Farmingham, in Kent,
and which promises to equal the expecta
tions which have been excited in regard to
it.
