of 10, or thereabouts, from Westminster.
Md. The second and last couple hailed
from Reading, Pa., and we believe, as in
the former case, the man was elderly and
married ; the lady single, youthful, pretty
and interesting. They were all discov
ered, and compelled to return home."
Rev. W. H. Rice, of the Moravian church,
at York, who has been absent in Europe
for six months, has returned to his home
in good health A. Ilam. Glessner, one
of Andy Johnson's Revenue officers in
York, was bound over for trial last week,
by the U. S. Commissioner at Philadel
phia, for aiding in whisky frauds. So also
were Emanuel Sheffer, of Glen Rock, Jas.
M. Blosser and Samuel M. Emminger.
THAT was an unfortunate yawn which
spoiled the pleasure of a party of young
men on Lake Michigan last week. They
sailed into a beautiful little cove, and
having laid out a sumptuous repast, were
sitting down to enjoy it, when Mr. S.,
the wit of the party, leaned back with
wide-stretched jaws to enjoy a tremendous
gape, when snap went his jaw, having
sprung out of joint with his mouth open
to its widest extent. He tried in vain to
close hisjaw, looking wildly around upon
his friends, who mistook his open mouth
and agonized appearance for some kind of
a joke. It was some time before his in
distinct articulations could be understood,
the party meanwhile roaring with laugh
ter at the appearance of S. When, finally,
they became aware of the truth, their
visions of a pleasant day vanished, they
hastily bundled their traps and afflicted
brother into the boat, took to their oars,
and pulled twelve long miles to Munising.
S., in the meantime, sat in the stern sheets
steering the boat, with distorted jaws,
and the strong south wind blowing so
freshly into his mouth as to make it neces
sary to stuff in a handkerchief to keep him
from being suffocated. Arriving at Mun
ising a doctor was procured, and, with
the help of several men, the unlucky jaw
was put in place.
THE Washington Star, of the 13th,
says: Rather an unpretending military
hero is General Sherman. The other
night he visited the National Theater,
and between acts took a tranquil smoke
in front, walking slowly up and downe
pavement, and, with his uneonspicMis
dress and quiet manners, was unrecog
nized by the loungers. A little fellow
approached him with the familiar appeal,
"Please, sir, give me a check!" "Why,
sonny," said the General s good-naturedly,
"I want to go in again myself," and
having taken a few more turns and whiffs,
he passed in again, no one of the by
standers aware that this was the man
who made the famous "March to the
Sea," renowned in history and in song.
LET HER Go.—The young lady who
rises early, rolls up her sleeves and walks
into the kitchen to get breakfast, or assist
in doing so, and afterwards, with cheer
fulness and sunny smiles, puts the house
in order without the assistance of mother,
is worth a thousand pallor beauties, who,
for the want of exercise, complain of
ennui and lounge in luxurious ease. The
former will make a good wife and render
home a paradise; the latter is a useless
piece of furniture, and will, to the annoy
ance of the householi, go whining to the
grave. Let her go.
P. S.
BEFORE AND AFTER
ThedDemocmcy are a curious study of
mingled folly and wisdom. Sometimes we
think that nobody can be so wise as they,
but before we have fairly gauged the wis
dom of their course we find them doing
something so exceedingly foolish that we
are all at sea again. When they enter
upon a canvass they so suit their meas
ures to the end, and compound for the un
certainty of their platforms by the parti
san strength of their candidates, that we
find ourselves wishing that we Republi
cans knew how, with purer purposes if tt d
better principles, to find the wisdom of
always selecting as our candidates the
true exponents of party policy. But, af
ter the Democrats have set their traps and
put up their little game, their wisdomends.
They do not know how to improviis a vic
tory, and a defeat makes them aliplutely
imbecile. The fabled ostrich, wNkburies
his head in the sand and leaves a vast bulk
of its body exposed to the pitiless hunter,
is their only symbol. Mr. Pendleton:luta
been defeated in Ohio; Mr. Hendricks
would be in even a worse case in Indititut,
Western Democracy has lost its twolk
vorite candidates for the Presidency; .
Hoffman is well enough as an elegant w
York gentleman, and may make a se , -
tion at; Saratoga or Jerome Park; bn
the West and Northwest he could
.cstrry-a. Countac....Cdst •• • . • 7'l
all these distinguished and possible aspir
anti for the Presidency being out of the
way, tho Louisville Courier goes back to
Judge Chase as the next Democratic can
didate. If our readers can fully take in
the idea of the Louisville Courier, the
ultra-organ of the ultra-Democracy of the
ultra-Democratic State ot Kentucky, pro
posing Judge Chase for the Presidency,
they will get a measure of the abyss of
folly into which Democratic editors have
been precipitated by the October elections.
FINE SENTIMENT
On a recent visit to Catskill, an artist
was standing on the main highway back
of the village, contemplating a rare sun
set. The heavens seemed flooded with
golden and purple light, and field and
mountain glittered with the reflected
glories of the sky. Our artist stood mute
with rapture, cheerfully noticing the
changing and intermingling hues. Just
then he perceived a person standing by
his side, and turning to him he exclaimed
with enthusiasm:
"What a magnificent picture you have
here, my dear furl"
"Whereabouts?" was the very indiffer
ent reply of the stranger.
"Look all around—the mountains, the
heavens, the setting sun. What picturs
can surpass such a view!"
This was spoken with a spice of vexa
tion and disappointment at the others
want of sympathy with the scene.
"Why, yea, I have often thought that
if I—"
Our artist then began to feel that lie
had done injustice to the unimaginative
gentleman, and turned towards him, in
expectation of some line sentiment in
spired by the occasion.
"Why, yes, I have often thought that
if I could only raise money enough to set
up a cake and beer stand in this location,
it wouldn't pay bad, because lots of folks
travel along in this neighborhoodl”
THE MAN OF THE PERIOD.—Fanny
Fern is after the "pretty man" of the
period, who scents his handkerchief,
twirls a switch cane parts big hair in the
middle, and places himself in conspicuous
positions that the ladies may admire him.
She says: "Your conventional handsome
man of the barber's window, wax-ligure
head pattern, with pet lock in the middle
of his forehead, an apple head, and a
raspberry moustache with six hairs in it,
paint-pot on his cheek, and a little dot of
a goatee on his chin, with pretty blinking
little studs in his shirt-bosom, and a little
necktie that looks as if ho would faint
were it tumbled, I'd as lief look at a
poodle. I always feel a desire to nip it up
with a pair of sugar-tongs, drop it gently
into a bowl of cream, and strew pink rose
leaves over the little remains.
A CONSTABLE SOLD.—A Michigan
constable, from whose custody a prisoner
had escaped with only a shirt on, while
in search of the convict was told by one
of the neighbors that there had appeared
at the house of the latter, during the
night, an individual who was stark naked,
and who refused to give any account of
himself. The neighbor further said that
the stranger was still in the house and
might yet be taken. The constable flow
around, got his handeuffis, and rode up to
the residence of his informant, to find that
the lady of othe house had given birth
during the night to a very flue baby.

We do not wish to inform you, reader that
Dr. Wonderful, or any other man, has discov
ered a remedy that cures Consumption, when
the lungs are half consumed, in short, will cure
all diseases whether of mind, body or estate,
make men live forever anti leave death to play
i
for want of work, and s designed to make our
sublunary sphere a blissful paradise to which
Ileaven itself shall be but a side show. You
have heard enough of that kind of humbuggery,
and we do not wonder that you have by this
time become disgusted with it. But when I
tell you that Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy will
positively cure the worst oases of Catarrh, I only
assert that which thousands can testify to.
Try it and you will be convinced. I will pay
OW it KWA no for a case of Catarrh that I cannot
cure.
