Fox and the Pickpockets. One day
Edward Fox went with his brother, Charles
James Fox, to witness the first balloon as
cent made in England. There was a jrrcat
crowd, and Fox detected a pickpocket at
tempting to relieve him of his watch. 'My
friend,' said he, 'you hare chosen an oc
cupation which will be your ruin at last.'
The ibid burst, into tears, aud exclaimed,
'Oh, Mr. Fox, forgive me and let me go !
I have been driven to this by necessity
alone ; my wife aud children are starving '.'
For compassionately gave him a guinea,
and he went away with blessings on his
lips. Soou after Fox, wishing to know
what time it was. found his watch missing,
'(ood (lod ! be exclaimed, 'my watch is
gu'ie!' 'Yes,' answered his brother, "I
ki.-iw it is : I s;iw your friend tike it.
Saw him take it ami made no attempt to
stoji him Keaily,' said the brother, "you
ai:d he appeared to le on such good terms
wiih each oilier that I did not like to in
terfere." Wimtr Lightly. An Indiana editor
advises people agaiust using a hard pencil,
and goes on to tell why. His wife desired
him to write a note to a lady, inviting her
to meet a party of friends at her house.
After 'Hubby' has done as his wife desired,
aud started to post the note, she saw on
another piece of paper an impression of
what he had written. It was :
Mattic : Eflie desires your company
on Wednesday to meet the Smithers.
Don't fail to come ; aud, my darling, I shall
have the happiness of a long walk home
wilh you and a sweet goodnight kiss. I
dare not see you oiteu, or my all-consuming
love would betray us both. ut Mattie
dear, don't fail to come.'
Signob Blitz had a bright little fellow
on the stand to assist him in the "experi
ments.' 'Sir,' said the signor, 'do you
think I could put the coins which that lady
holds into your coat pocket V 'No,' said
the boy, confidently, 'Think not.' 'I kuow
you couldu't.' said the little fellow, with
great firmness. 'Why not V '"Cause the
pocket is ail torn out.'
An old farmer riding in a lumler wagon
with his son. when passing over a rough
place fell otT, and coming into close contact
with the wheel he cried out, 'My neck is
broke !' His son cxprtssttfg some doubt as
to the case being quite so bad, the old man
responded with some spirit, " Iout you
s"pose I know."
A SMALL boy, telling how he came to be
detected stealing apples in a grocery store,
proceeded thus; 'Well, I didn't care so
much about being 6ecn, but the clerk was
cross-eyed, and I thought he was watchin'
a dorg fight across the street, but he was
lookin square unto me nn ho helped me
clean into the gutter.'
'The fact is,' said an elderly wife, a man
does not know how to straighten up things,
lie dots nol kuow where to commence. I
don't wonder,' she remarked in conclusion,
'that when (lod made Adam he went right
to work and made a woman to toll him what
ti do.'
It seems to me I have seen your physiog
nomy somwhrrc before, ' said a swell to a
stranger whom he mot the other day, 'Lut
I cannot imagine where.' 'Very likely,'
replied the other, 'I have been the keeper
f a prison for the last twenty years.
A New Op.lkans darkey driving a cot
ton float, hearing the flagship firing a sa
lute, screamed 'Dar dey is at it agin, au"
jis war dey was lfo ! Good Lor ! CJit up,
Susan," and away dashed mules, float , and
darkey for the back of the town.
Tin: poet Longfellow in party, asked a
French g"Utleman who happened to be pre
sent why seemed so sad and unhappy at
that moment. To which the latter replied,
'Me very mosh dissatisfy. Me jus' ;:at my
fadere be dead.'
'Will you take a kiss?' said a young
beau to bis inamorats, as he passed the
plate of confections which bore the tempt
ing title. 'Fie!' exclaimed the blushing
fair one, 'not until we are out of the room.'
'Do you think,' asked Mrs. Pepper, 'that
a little temper is a bad thing in a woman ?'
'Certainly not, ma'am,' replied a gallant
philosopher, 'it is a good thing, nud she
ought never to lose it.'
A LITTLE Connecticut boy, asking a mate
who Good Friday was. received the wither
ing reply ; 'Well, you go homo and read
your Robinson Crusoe.'
AW a friend to a pale haggard smoker ;
'You look as if yu had got out r your
grave to light your cigar, aud ronldrrt find
your way back again."
QriLl', who has heretofore Wen a Uni
versalis!, now ltelieves there are two things
destined to be eternally lost his umbrella
aud the man who stole it. '
We are told nothing was made in vain ; j
but bow about a pretty girl V Isn't she j
maiden vaiu V j
The difference between a barber and a j
mother is that one has razors to shave and :
the other shavers raise. j
A PiTTsnuKf woman was cured of'
speechlessness by the prayers of a priest, i
Ilei husband is now prowling around after !
the priest with a shot-gun. !
Foknkv says the English girls are not !
half as pretty as ours, but they have the
"low, sweet voice.' And Forney had bet-1
ter come home. We need him for the Ccn- j
terinial, and the low, sweet voice has play-
ed the deuce before now, with older and j
vier nu-n than he. '
'Give mt; a bid, gentlemen some one j
tattthe cart do give me a bid, if you
please anything to start the cart !' tried j
an exdted Yankee auctioneer, who stood i
on the cart lie was endeavoring to sell.
Anything you please to start it.' 'If that's
ail you wants, I'll start her for you,' ex- j
claimed a broad-backed countryman, ap- 1
plying his shoulder to the wheel, and giving
the cart a sudden push forward, tumbled
the auctioneer over the side. 15y the lime
the auctioneer had regained hi feet, the
countryman had started too.
A gentleman of a mechanical turu of
mind took off the gas-meter to repair it
himself, and put it up again upside-down.
At the end of the quarter it was proved
with mathematical correctness that the gas
company owed him eight dollars and lifty j
cents !
A traveler stopping oyer night with '
a Texan farmer, whose estate was miles
upon miles in extent, said to him :
'You must have beguu life, early to w-;
cumulate such an estate as this.'
'Yes,' said the farmer, 'I began life when i
I was a mere baby.'
It is told of a man poorly dressed that!
he went to church, seeking an opportunity j
to worship. The usher did not notice him,
bnt seated several well dressed persona who
presented themselves, when finally the man
addressed the usher, saying, 'Can you tell
rao whose church this is ?' ' Yes : this Ls
Clirisfs Church.' 'Is He in ? was the j
next question, after which a sent was not
so hard to find.

Dr. J. Walker's Califomia Vine
gar Killers arc a purely Vegetable
preparation, made cliielly from tbe native
herbs found on the lower ranges of the
Sierra Nevada mountains of California,
tho mcdieinal properties of which are
extracted therefrom without the u e of
Alcohol. Tlio question is almost dnily
asked, " What is tho cause of the nn;';ir
alleled success of Vinkgau Uittkiis .' "
Our answer is, that they remove the
cause of disease, and the patient recov
ers his health. They are the ;ne.it
blood purifier and a life-giving princi
ple, a perfect Renovator andlnvigovtor
of the system. Never before in the his
tory of the world has a medicine been
compounded possessing the remarkable
qualities of Vinegar Bittf.ks in healing
the sick of every disease man is heir to.
They are a gentle Purgative well as a
Tonic, relieving Congestion or Inflammation
of the Liver and Visceral Organs in liilio.is
Diseases.
The properties of I'i- Wai.kf.ks
Vinegar Bitters are Aperient, Diaphoretic,
Carminative, Nutritious, Laxative. Diuretic,
Sedative, Counter-irritant, Sudoritie, Altera
tive, and Anti-Iilious.
Grateful Thousands proclaim Vrs
egar Bitters the most wonderful Invigor
ant that ever sustained the sinking system.
No Person can take these Bitters
according to directions, and remain long
nnwell, provided their bones are not de
stroyed by mineral poison or other means,
and vital organs wasted beyond repair.
Hilions, Remittent, and Inter
mittent Fevers, which are so prev
alent in tho valleys of our great rivers
throughout the United States, especially
those, of the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri,
Illinois, Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkan
sas, Red, Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grande,
Pearl, Alabama, Mobile, Savannah, Ro
anoke, James, and many others, with
their vast tributaries, throughout our
entire country during the Summer and
Autumn, and remarkably so daring sea
sons of unusual heat and dryness, are
invariably accompanied by extensive
derangements of the stomach and liver,
and other abdominal viscera. In their
treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow
erful influence upon these various or
gans, is essentially necessary. There is
no cathartic for the purpose equal to De.
J. Walker's Vixkgak Bitters, as
they will speedily rcmovo tho dark
colored viscid matter with which tho
bowels aio loaded, at tho samo time
stimulating the secretions of tho liver,
and generally restoring tho healthy
functions of the digestive organs. K,
Fortify the body against disease
by purifying all its fluids with Vinegar
Litters. No epidemic can take hold of
a system thus fore-armed.
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Head
ache, I'aia in tho Shoulders, Coughs,
Tightness of the Chest, Dizziness, Sour
Eructations of the stomach, Bad Taste in
the Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpitation
of the Heart. Inflammation of the Lung?,
Pain in the region of tho Kidneys, and a
hundred other painful symptoms, are
the offsprings of Dyspepsia. One bottle
will prove a better guarantee of its
merits than a lengthy advertisement.
Scrofula, or King's Evil, White
i Swellings, Ulcers. Erysipelas, Swelled
i Ncrk, Goitre, Scrofulous Inflammations,
! Indolent Inflammations, Mercurial Affec
tions. Old Sores, Eruptions of the Skin,
Sore Eyes, etc., etc. In these, as in all
other constitutional Diseases, Walker'3
Vinegar Bitters have shown their
great curative powers in tho most ob
stinate and intractable cases.
For Inflammatory and Chronic
Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, Remit
tent and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases
of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Blad
der, these Bitters have no equal. Such
Diseases are caused by Vitiated Blood.
Mechanical Diseases. Persons en
gaged in Paints and Minerals, such as
Plumbers, Type-setters, Gold-beaters,
and Miners, as they advance in life, are
subject to paralysis of the Bowels. To
guard against this, take a dose of Walk
er's Vinegar Bitters occasionally.
For Skin Diseases, Eruptions, Tet
ter, Snlt-Uheum, Blotches, Spots, Pimples,
Pustule. Boil. Carbuncles, Ring-worms,
Scald-head, Sore Eyes. Erysipelas, Itch,
Scurfs, Discoloratioiis of the Skin, Humors
nud Discnscs of the Skin of whatever name
' or nature, are literally dug up and carried
I out of the nystem in a r-hrt timo by the use
I of these Bitter.-.
I Pin, Tape, and other Worms,
lurking in the t-v.-tein of so many thousands,
! are elicctually destroyed ;;r.d removed. No
i svstein of medicine," xm vermifuges, no nu-
ihi-lminitie will f:v- the system from worms
like these Bitters.
I or i emale i omplaiiiis, in younj
or old, married or Mnff!'. the dawn of wo
manhood, or the turn of life, these Tonic Bit
ters display so decided an influence that im
Iirovemeut U soon perceptible.
Cleanse fhe Vitiated Blood when
ever you rind itslmpurities bursting through
the .-dun in Timplcs, Eruptions, or Sores;
cleanse it when you tied it obstructed and
sluggish in the veins: cleanse it when it ii
foul ; vour feelings will tell you when. Keep
the blood pure, aiid the health of the system
will follow.

TS THE SHOP OF THE TOWN nnd long
A. has been ; ask hi.-tory and she will tell you
Men have trrown old in our patronage
Babies on their mothers' breast
To bonnciug boys at play ;
And youths by maidens fair caressed,
To stalwart men with cares oppressed.
And old men silver gray.
And among the honored and lasting impres
sions of time, and the crash of revolutions in
circumstances, we stand a living monumental
memento of the ingenuity and perseverance ap
pprtaining to the identity of progression, plying
our vocation with the highest style of art and
perfection, and aspiring to achieve the highest
reward of merit attainable in our humble capaci
ty, and the sentiment of respect and approbation
which the presence of superior appliances and es
tablishment are always wont to inspire.
Always to please
We shave with case
Cut and comb with taste the hair ;
Shampoo the head with soothing cure,
And color the whiskers black or brown,
To suit the people about the town.
Then allow me politely request you to stop.
And not go past nor from around our shop.
To get shaved on the basis of ability nor as
some have done for our use of the ballot for prin
ciple snereil and right nor under tho common
secret and invidious guise of enmity to complex
ion ; for the cut of a man's cont, or the color of
his skin, ought not to affect his usefulness nor
bis qualifications. A fair chance is all that we
demand, to irive the proof to all the land.

Jcdoing at Exhibitions. One of our Illus
trated papers recently sketched a scene at an
agricultural exhibition. The three judges are
lookiDg at one poor little ewe of such doubtful
character that the "first committee-man'' is
quite pardonable for the inquiry "What is this
for?" The second responds with an inquiring
emphasis, "This why, that is Judge Jones' im
ported ewe, the mother of Sockdolager, that sold
for 2,0i'0, and Judge Jones is worth 1100,000."
"Indeed !" responds the third, "then we must
put her down for a premium of course the
first."
It is a pity if this little sketch should excite
but a ludicrous smile and then be forgotten.
There is unfortunately a depth in it, which is
well worth probing to the bottom. We all know
that our agricultural exhibitious, useful as ihey
' B ' ao meaDa wnai iney migni De ; ana
I among the depressing influences, incompetency
i of the judges is often not amonir the least. In
competency is uot the word generally nsed ly
the suffering exhibitor. He prefer to say injus
tice ; but it is not ex-ictly this. The average
judge wants to encourage the production of arti
cles for exbibitiou. Every one who brings an
article for exhibition must "get something" in
j order to encourage him tocomc again. It cost
! somethi"S to bring things to the exhibition, and
' "80metDlng" must be awarded in order to pay
j for the trouble. Then again, this is Judge Jonev
article. le is worth S100.000. A society can
not get along without money ; only with money
can the poor exhibitors be paid. Judge Jones is
a liberal contributor. His ?100,000 has often
helped the Bociety in an emergency. Even the
exhibitor of superior stock is indebted to Jndgt
Jones' liberality for even the money for tbt
second premium. It will please Judge Jones to
have the first premium, and thus he with his
money comes again. There is of course injus
tice to the other exhibitors, but this is not inten
tional. Justice to the exhibitor is forgotten iu
what is supposed to be justice to the success of
the exhibition.
But it is all a mistake. The most flourishing
societies are those in which the law is unswerv
ing adherence to rule and exact justice to all
and those who are the least sncee&sfut are thosi
in which iu vjrder to "satisfy all" an equal dis
tribution of the money is awarded among the ex
hibitoi.
It is often said that our exhibitions do no
seem to show much marked improvement in ag
riculturc, and perhaps the evil we have referre.
to is one of the causes. Judges and manager
are over-anxious for mere display. They car
more for people bringing things than for the ex
cellencies of the things themselves. The forme
is aided by the rule of an equal distribution c
the money. Lots of persons will run'tothei
fields the day before exhibition and take anj
thing they have when they are sure they will gf
something for the little trouble ; but it takr
time and labor to grow things with an epecis
view to excellence, and this will not be take
unless the exhibitor feels that the article is t
be judged on its merits alone.
This is but one field in which judges with tl
best intentions often err. There are othci
which we may refer to some other time. Ot

Keepino Bitter Fresh. The best way i
keep butter that is prime is to exclude the a
from it and put it In a cool, sweet place ; but tl
first is the most important. If the butter is in
pail, tub, or jar, cover it one or two inches wi
the strongest brine, made from the best Ononda;
salt. Remember, it will not do to simplyacov
it with salt ; the air will pass through the sa!
but not through the brine. If the package h.
a tightly fining cover, so much the better. Ti
best bntter exposed to the air, in the summe
will not keep perfect for twenty-four hours. Br
ter for the family should be kept constantly n
der brine.
The Ftirmft Advocate recently offered a pri
fore the best method of keeping eggs over w!
ter. The recipe given below took the prize :
Whatever excludes the air prevents the dee
of the egg. What I have found to be the m
successful method of doing so is to place a smi
quantity of salt butter in the palm of the 1
hand and turn the egg round in it, so that eve
pore of the shell is closed ; then dry a suflicu
quantity of bran in an oven (be sure yon ba
the bran well dried, or it will rnst.) Then pa
them with the small ends down, a layer of br
and another of eggs, until your box is full ; th
place in a cool, dry place. If done when n
laid, they will retain the sweet milk and curd
a new laid egg for at least eight or ten montl
Any oil will do, but salt butter never beeoa
rancid, and a very small quantity of butter
a very large quantity of eggs. To insure fre
ness I rub them when gathered in from the cest
then pack when there is a sufficient quantity.

A Novel Addition to the Dinner Table.
The Brtwtrt' Gazette says, and it onght tc- kuc
that we are to have a revolution, it appenrs,
wine glasses. London porter requires pewt
and hock a green glass, and it has cow been d
covered that sherry is not sherry unless dm
out of wood, so that we shall shortly have
dining tables laid out with tiny carved cups,
stead of the orthodox wine glass with which '
have long been familiar. At present the idea
only iu its infancy, awaiting the artists w
have under consideration the design of the n
cherry cups. We may, however, mention tl
they will be larger than the presort wine gla
more like the old port glasses which onr grar
fathers used.
Cooking Corn in Fattsmsg Hocs. The m
we think about the stereotyped claim of a ga
of 33 or even 25 per cent. in favor of cooki
corn fed to bogs, the more we don't believe
So far as we know, there have never been a
reaily conclusive experiments made. Corn
now high, and it is worth while to save all
can. It would be an admirable thing if farrui
in different sections would try parallel exp
ments, feeding one lot of hogs on 100 bushels
raw corn and another similar lot 100 bushels
ground and cooked corn. Of course, the Ik
each be weighed before and after the expe
ment, and the result reported to the rress, w
