Bat we have known many ladies who could cafit a lino a* skillfully as any masculine adept. The young lady of Bu'iler who went to the creek the other day made a brave cast, but all sl»e hooked was her own nose. Not believing in the kind of adornment affected hy more savage belles she followed her nose to a sur geon's office and had herself unhooked from lie:* own line. A PITTSBURGH man—the word's a misnomer—recently reflected on the fair name of a lady of the Smoky City, whereupon one of her gentleman friends who happened to be present administered a severe trouncing to the slanderer, knocking him down like a ten-pin, and picking him up and setting him on his feet after each blow. This is said to have been repeated no le«s than ten times, by which time we may well believe the follow wa. pretty well used up. lie will be apt to be careful how ho speakes about ladies iu the future.

While (he friends of M. . Crthttiiw J.

She walked away from the Morgue with the man who had come there with her coffin prepared to give her a decent burial. The corpse greatly resembled Mrs. N-'.-le, except in the color of the hair; but this uiilerence had not been observed by the people who came to identify the remains at the Coroner's inquest. So much for human testimony. HUSELTON'S stock of Boots and Shoes are all made to his order. A NEW YORK paper commenting on the distracted condition of the Democratic party in that State savs: "Mr. Barnum, the cele brated showman, has shown how a happy fam ily may be composed of dogs and rabits, weasels, rats and doves. Animals naturally enemies to each other mav !>«* brought to live together in perfect jKjace." The instinct which prompts them to destroy one another may be overcome, aud love implanted in its place. It this can be done with wild animals, possess! of but very limited intelligence, cannot the same thing be effected with the enlightened Democracy of New York? WHEN out buying Gents' Furnishing Goods drop in at Charles R. Grieb's. THE ill-feeling between Germany and Russia is assuming more formidable pro portions than a mere newspaper war. At the same time we are informed tlie Austro-German relations are exceedingly friendly, while the Austro-Russian relations are right the reverse. In other words, the cable diswatches would have us believe that An-ma and Germany ar«* about ready to pounce upon distracted Russia and pound her. The Colossus ot the North having proved in the Turco-Russian war to be a weak-Kneed, wabbling Colossus, and having «inoe said war become still more weak-kfieed ami wabbling, it is onlv natural that his amia ble neighbors should be seized with'a desire to lick him. THE best fitting suits made in the countv come from J. IF. Keck s Merchant Tailoring establishment. A STARTLING rumor came jn from B> ler county, one morniug last wetlc. It was to the effect that u murder had been committed near Saxonburg, and u market woman had seen two men carrying the dead body away in a boggy. One of our local correspondents, who is always on the alert for an item, started on the trail; and after patiently following the story from mouth to mouth, he finally ran down the veritable market woman who had originated the story. What she said was that she had seen three men in a htigirv on the Saxonburg ro.nl, and one of them was dead drunk. l*rom this the story of the dead man and murder grew. People often wonder why things are not always correct in the paper. And the news paper man wonders how lie ever gets anything just right, as long as people lie so.— Freeport JoM 'CiA HCSELTON is selling Uoots and Shoes at very low figures to niakr room for fall stock. CONSIDERABLE dissatisfaction is ex pressed in some parts of our county at present with the operations of our patent laws. Many persons, but more especially farmer.-, who are obliged to make use of inanv of those small matters which might come under the head of patented trifles, are continually threatened with claims tud suit, at low for their enforcement by patent agents or owners of patents, until ilieir patience has become exhausted. In this way a strong popular feeling adverse to patent laws has arisen ; ami it needs no great prophetic capacity to prognosticate an early reform in some mann< r of the present law of patents, under which a thing that is old and antirjui dated, worn out ami discarded by our fathers perhaps, may be patented and made a source of trouble. Cases of this nature have become so frequent that it has passed into a byword, and the exacting patent agent, with his claims 011 fences, gates, harrows, churn" and other such matters, takes rank with those bothersome individuals who, styling themselves "agents," often develop into swindlers.
