Tbo Tilmville Herald oi this morning
ys: "Tbe Crawford Democrat and Petro
1 'itin Centre Record copy from the tele
graphio correspondence of the. New York
Herald what purports to be the testimony
of Messr. Pettii and Bishop, before the
January committee, la the matter or the
cadolsnlp !uvestlgation,"'.and tgoe on to
ridiculH Mr. Pettis' statement, but has not
word to say in regard to Mr. ili.han-. .i
deaoe, upon which tbe New York corres
pondent had the most to fay. Then the
lleralU gives a reply, which it claims Mr.
Pettis made to a question a.kcd by General
Logan. Now we do not believe the editor
of the Herald ever saw that in print before,
or that Mr. Pettis ever made it What
we said Frldsywe say lo-doy. If t,P
Titusvilie Herald and Oil City Times lud
published tbe New York correspondent's
report referred to, as they did that same
correspondent's letter giving the evidence
against Mr. Pettis, it would not have had
so much the appearance of a put up job, or
melt so strong of mnlica and hatred.
Does any one wuat to bet us that the Oil
City Times will not copy the Herald's arti
oie ot this morning? .
Reduction- ov Freight Demaxdkd At

A recently published book of "Nursery
Rhymes for Children" Is a very curious illus
tration of the remarkable Ignorance which
exists in tbo minds of some people concern
ing the real wants and needs of tbe little
folks in respect to their literature for they
certainly have one now-a-days. Here is a
"measly" lullaby lor n child suffering from
a common in fantllo disease:
"Feci her pulse.
It begins to convulse:
Soon the spasms will throttle her;
The blue spots will niottle her;
Tbeu the doctors will bottle her."
A "Whisper Song" imparts some useful
information:
Hi t! That noise! What was it!
See, there's a ghost in tho closet
And under tbe table, look!
Don't yon sen that creeping spook?
Ob! Oh! look out on tbo stnir,
Tbo devil is hidinu there?'
Moit people, we fancy, will take good care
that tbeir children are kept in ignorat ce of
such rhymes for several years after tbey
have lelt the nursery forerer.
Tub Baby Ball. An entertainment of a
somewhat singular nature took place on
Saturday afternoon and evening at living
Hall, New Yoik. It was, in fact, u baby
matinee ball, prolonged into an evening
concert, at which tbe guests were of every
age betweeu four and fourteen. Young
New York was thero In all Its glory.
"Nobby" boys and fair girls crowded the
Boor, and in a few cases lufants in arms
might be seen in as much of a ball-costume,
as swaddling clothes would admit of. It is
a tad fact that cigars and whisky were sur
reptitiously indulged in by some of the lud?,
and that the whole affair was an amazing
ir.slauce of precocity.
At a divorce trial before Judge Sample,
id Jluncie. Jnd., last week, the principals
the in suit, relating how lovingly they
used to lire lo gether when lirat manieri, be
came so affected over the recollection of
tbeir lost happiness that they commenced
cryiug; the Judge followed suit, the andi
cace ji.ined In, and handkerchiefs were in
general demand. Judge Sample, when
they had all got through crying, suggested
to the husband and wife 1 tbe propriety of
trying to live happily together once more.
After cotiBuUa'.ion, they concluded to try
it again, and tbe cubs was thus ended.

The Olit Book.
Quaint poems of a far off age,
In binding dark and old.
But strewn o'er each discolored pnge
Sweet fancies swecllj told.
That seem as though a child were I,
To take mo by the hand.
And lead me through tbe years gono by,
Back to a much loved land.
Where BUDshiue falls in golden bars,
Through woodland labyrinths,
And frail white wind-flowers lie liko stars
'Mid purple hyacinths.
Now, though I softly close the book,
The vision with me stays:
On Grcenyoung leaves and rippling brook
On flowers and sky I gxz '.
O poet! dead and gone thou art:
lint this, tby magic lore.
Doth entor in tbe reader heart,
And live there evermore.
O poo!! that didst sing so sweet, ; '
To gladden weary men,
Perchance some day we twajn shall meet,
And I may thank thee then.
