ANECpOTE.

A capital story is told Of Forrest, the
iragcdan and an eminent Judge. When
they were both young and unknown to fame
and each other they met at a western inn,
and by chance were put to sleep IN the
same room. Both rullred IN the dark,
each suspicious of the other. Thoy slept
pretty comfortably, so well indeed, that
they both refused to rlso in the morning.
They were lying, cyeing each other with
lorocious looks until noon, when Forrest
making desperate effort called out:
Stranger, why don't you get upl"
What's that to you
al have particular reason for ASKING,
mnltered Forrest, and then plunged his
head beneath the clothes.
Presently the other raised his head and
said say, my friend, perhaps you will
answer me, II put tho question to you
which refuse to reply to yourself"
Well, them" said Forrest, rolling the
clothes off slowly, aud striking his heels
npon the floor, 81 have no shirt, and did
not want to expose my poverty"
"Oh ~ said the other, leaping with a
grey hound like bound into the middle OF
the apartment, "why didn't you say SO
before, that is Just precisely the case totth

MORALS OF NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
INFIDELITY BY WHOLESALE.

INT lDEisl III fOIE- a IE.
A late number Of the Cincinnati Com
mercial, after giving tho particulars Of a
strange case Of conlugal inhdelity in that
city, then goes on to make the following
statement. We hardly know what to
make Of ii. The editor, after mentioning
one aggravated case, then goes on to say !:
The above may DO considered squally
affair, but ii is not up TO a ruse, the knowl-
edge Of which we are ~ possession Of, by
at least three hundred per cent Oppor-
iunity 10 cheat husband is considered
more Than half the game. To effect this
without The least suspicion, society Of the
elite Of the l,dics Of this city had been
formed, each Of whom belonging, has a
lover. They pay visits 10 each others
houses, and where two or three arc met
together" the lover Of one or more is pre-
sent by invitation or appointment. The
others being equally cupabIe at another or
the same time, no Information IS gwen in
fact, protection ample is afforded, the loy.
ers are allowed 10 ENJOY a private and pas
sionale meeting to their hearts content,
under cover OF "A company OF highly re.
spectacle associates. 80 perfectly sy stem.
ATTIC has this thing been carried on in our
city that one unsuspected room has often
been the place Of meeting for three or
four guilty ones-the presence OF one not
acting IN the least as "a hiudrance to the
criminal pleasure Of another. Implicated
as members Of the unheard.ol society are,
those who, if named now, would be pow
criul enough IN accredited virtue 10 over,
power almost any exponent Of the schemes
practised But the time is not far distant
when Tho whole will be exploded and the
names known. That day will be one Of
extraordinary weeping, walling and aston.
ishment. Tie society was founded for
the convenience and revenge, by two of the
most celebrated women OF the city, but n
few years since, and as means of retail.
alton upon falthless husbands ii has grown
10 fearful extent-the inroads daily max.
ing upon the vruous are fearful. What
are we to think Of the inventions Of socie.
~ as now organized I! If it continue as
now, what shall we not see
