LEWISBUKG CHRONICLE & WEST BRANCH FARMER. ' lUit anft fiiimor. Blitz la a Tight Placa Signnr Bliti is well known throughout this country as the prince of magicians and ventriloquists, who can hocus-pocus any thing into other places in the most inexpli cable and mysterious manner, while his audience are wrapped in astonishment. He ean throw his voice into any spot with in hearing distance, and imitate the lan guage of animals themselves. He is noted for tact and self-possession, and is usually equal to any emergency in which he finds himself placed. We never knew the Sig nor ' set back' and completely ' flabbergas ted' but once, and then it happened in a country town in Connecticut, in this wise. The Signor, contrary to his usual custom, bad consented to stop at this town on his route through New England, by the assu rance of certain persons that it would pay binf well for the trouble, as amusements were scarce, and the ' free list' small. He accordingly gave a scries of performances in a large ball in the principal tavern in the place, which was a large, old fashioned Structure. The ball was crowded to its fullest on each of the evenings, and every thing worked to admiration until the last evening, when a mischievous boarder con ceived the idea of varying the entertain stent slightly. One of the most popular things in the whole entertainment was the ventriloquism. when the Signor held an animated conver sation with ' Peter in the chimney, which was situa'.cd on one side of the hall, near the middle. The aforesaid boarder waa aware that the smoke-house, in which hit daily slice of bacon was cured, was situs ted over the ball, and an aperture in the main chimney at that spot gave access t a flue which led from tic fire-place to tb ball room. He accordingly captured -cat, and ci)c n?ed h mself in the emok house, just before the feat of ventriloquism was to bepn. W hen the Signor com menced calling for ' Peter,' he allowed him to converse with the imaginary intcrlocu cor for a short time without interruption, but wLcn Blitz requested ' Peter' to come down near the fire-place for a familiar chat. the boarder's voice replied that he would sec him in the place of punishment first. and then he wouldn't' Bliti was hardly able to conceal his as tonishment at this reply, but the audience thought the magician was outdoing him self, and ciiccred tremendously. " Peter, come down, will you ?" " See you in my home, first ! Nor my name ain't Peter, neither. He keeps tht keys of t'other place." " What is your name ?" " lam Old Scratch." Blitz scratched hishcad.and the audience thought he was getting profane. He knew that he was sold, but could think of nothing better than to continue the ' tork.' j " Are you old Scratch, the Fire King?'' j "Yes." "I would be happy to see Old Scratch here." . "Well, are you ready?" " Yes." The word scarcely entered the chimney, when the big cat came tumbling and scratching down, filling the magician's eyes with soot, and the audience with in extinguishable laughter. The cat's eyes glared like the flash from two locofoco matches, and she disappeared with abouud. Bliti was utterly discomfited, and was compelled to close the performance without finishing the last act Yankee Blade. A farmer's daughter in this State was visited by a youngster, who, findiug it dif ficult to keep np the conversation, asked the girl, after an embarrassing silence bad prevailed for some time, " If she knew anybody that wanted to buy a shirt?" " No, I don't," she replied, " have you one to sell?" "Ob, no," said he, I only asked to make talk." I The following Bible aathoritj is cited bj the opponent of the Bloomer costume. Of course the attempt to introduce the fashion will be at once abandoned : " The woman shall not wear that which pcrtain cth unto man, neither shall man put ou woman' garment ; for all that do so are an abomination unto the Lord thj God." Peut. 22: 5. An old soldier was court-martialed for drunkenness; the offence wasclearljr proved, and the culprit was called upon for defence. It was short, simple and successful.
