BUrrER OpERATIor.-A large dealer in
butter was yesterday accosted by an up
river purchaser, who was in quest Of an
article Of butter of superior quality,
when something like the following occur
rcd. The up-river man requested to see
the best butter at the disposal of the other,
who, with a knowing look and -ly wink,
took him to lot very nicely put up, and
standing IN the back part of his store
"There sir," said he, pointing to 1t, "is
the finest article in this market; there Is
NOT such another in town, and, between
you and me, I'l tell you, under the rose,'
| paid two cents a pound more than the
regular market price for that butter.
arm determined to have none but the best.
know my customers, and intend TO do all
I can 10 furnish them with the finest that
can be had; indeed, poor hutter is a
cursed bad speculation, and I'll none of
it," The key was open, the butter looked
fresh and bright, and emitted rosy smell,
the trying rod was sticking in the surface,
and appearances were all in favor of the
article. "But, my dear sir" observed
the up-river man, ''just consider, | am
going to buy large quantity, and two
cents on pound Is considerable of fig
ure." eyes, hut you don't consider, my
dear fellow, that had to pay that myself,
and do not charge you any profit on the
expense. Indeed, had an eye to you
when purchased, as thought the article
would . ease your customers. Here, just
try that rod"
The up river man took the rod and
forced il steadi y through the yielding
mass. "lhere =" cried the vender, "does
it not prove solid and clear" eyes,"
replied the up river man, | must say it
feels well enough"
Just then, the vender thought he had Il
"dead thing" and in his minds eye the
butter was sold Without more ado, he
rapidly extracted the rod from the butter,
and without smelling it himself, thrust 1t
under the nose Of the up-river man, ex-
claiming with triumphant shout rs he
did so, which he thought would be con-
clusive-"rhere smell Of that!"
The up-river man did smel and such
a smel ! A combination of chloride of
lime and assafGtida won d be nothing to
it. Without word he clapped his hand
kerchief to his o factory and the last that
was seen of him he was making rapid
tracks for the lower end Of Pacific wharf.
In the meantime the merchant who had
originally sold the butter, got wind of the
transaction and stepping round to his dis
comftted friend, said. "How about the
extra two cents per pound you say you
paid me tor that butter1 No 60, ehr

The First RIoonner.

-
In the library of GEN. B1ERcE, at Akron, is an
old edition of the Bible, pablshed in 1899, almost
three centuries ago. Eisa venerable relic of the
art of printing, as ii was developed in the sixteenth
century The peculiar phraseology of the antique
English, with the different translation from the
present Bible, makes it an interesting volumne to
the curious reader, and an invaluable treasure to
the Antiquarian. We are informed that this is
one ofthe only three existing copies of this edition.
We have taken the liberty to quote passage
from the third chapter of Genesis, being the third
verse entire:
"Then the eyes of them both were opened, and
they knew that they were naked, they sewed figge
treeleayes and made themselves breeches.''
Thus it will be seen that Mother EVE, and not
Mother BLooMER, was the first Of her seq that soore
the 6reeches, at least the bible says SO.

Horrible Affair.

We understand that most horrible and bloody
outrage occurred at Franklin on Sunady night,
by which man named Beach was SO severely in
injured as to render his recovery extremely doubt
full. The particulars of the affair we have not
learned, but we understand that Beach with two
or three other persons, whose names we did not
learn, were gambling, when a quarrel ensued,
Beach charging some of the company with steal
ing his money. He then left the room and had
proceeded as far the bridge, when he was over
taken by others of the company who fell upon
him with clubs and beat him so horribly as to
der his recovery is regarded as uncertlin. One Of
the offenders, named Hall, has been arrested, the
other, colored barber, has not yet been found.
The examination of Hall it te take place on Fri
day.
