How An EprroR LOST Hat AND Won
FIVE HoRsEs.-The editor Of the Albany
Register the other day, on reading some-
thing very clever in the Atlas Of that ilk,
begged his brother Of the latter journal to
accept hat, provided he could find any
any one willing to trust the Register for
the same. Strange as it may appear, the
Atlas man did find such reckless and
imprudent halter, obtained the article, for
which in due time the bill was sent in.
Upon this the Register acknowledges the
corn-did not think the thing possible
finds to his sorrow that it was possible
even offers (which seems a wilder offer
than the first to pay the bill some day.
He then goes on to recount his melancho-
" experience in betting. When General
Jackson was the last time in the field for
the Presidency, neighbor Of his offered
to bet = horse against fifty dollars that the
Ajax Of New Orleans would not be elec-
ted Nj. Register took the bet. More
|palaver ensuing more horses were bet,
until five horses on one side, and $3.50 on
the other were staked on the issue of the
election. 1--WE" won. But tive" had
forgotten to designate the animals, and

their sorry persons, ringbone, SPAWN.

AoA Poo"o uuSny, suSSes'eo NY
wife.
30, no, dearest, bread pudding, always
was fond of it,
"Call this breed pudding q" exclaimed
my wife, while her pretty lips curled
slightly with contempt.
Certainly, love - reckon I've had
enough at the Sherwood house to know.
Bread pudding my love by all means.''
Husband, this is really too bad-plum
budding is twice as hard to make as bread
pudding, and is NOR expensive and is a
great deal better. l say that is plum pud-
ding, sir" and my pretty wife's brow
flushed with excitement.
g My love, my sweet, my dear love-"
exclaimed we soothingly, ''do not get an
CRY; I'm sure it is very good, if it is bread
pudding TEL.
'But sir, say it amt bread pudding"
s'But my love, I'm sure it must be bread
pudding"
''Yoa mean, low wretch" fiercely re-
piled my wife, ''you know it is plum pud-
ding"
Then ma am, it is SO meanly put to.
gether, and so badly burned, that the devil
himself wouldn't know it. tell you
madam, most distinctly and emphatically,
and will not be contradicted, that it is
bread pudding, and the meanest kind at
that"
sit is plum pudding" shrieked my wife,
as she hurled a glass Of clarret in my face
the glass itself tipping the claret from
my nose.
':Bread pudding!" gasped we; pluck
to the last, and grasping a roasted chick
en- hy the left leg.
"Plum pudding!" rose above the din,
as had distinctive perception Of feeling
two plates smash across my head.
''Bread pudding!" we groaned in rage
as the chicken left our hand, and flying
with swift wings across the table landed
in madame's bosom.
Plum pudding I" resounded the war
cry from the enemy, as the gravy dish took
US where he had been depositing the first
Of our dinner, and plate Of beets landed
upon white vest.
''Bread pudding, forever!' shouted we
in defiance, dodging the soup tureen and
falling beneath its contents.
"PIum pudding!' yelled the amiable
spouse, as noticing our misfortune, she de-
termined to keep US down by piling upon
our head the dishes with no gentle hand.
Then in rapid succession followed the war
cries. "Plum puddidg! - shrieked she
with every dish.
"Bread pudding!'' p in smothered tones
came up from the pile in reply. Then it
was s.pIum pudding in rapid succession,
the las, cry growing feebler, till just as |
can distinctly recolIect, it had grown to a
whisper. Plum pudding, resounded like
thunder, followed bya tremendous crash
as my wife leaped upon the pile with her
delicate feet, and commenced jumping up
and down-when, thank Heaven, we
awoke, and thus saved our life. We shall
never dream on wedding cake again
that's the moral. s5
