A SHREwD EDIToR.-At a Welsh
celebration in New York, DR., Jones,
told the following alnuseing anecdote:
1.-THE speaker said that editors were
like other shrewd men, who had to
live with their eyes and ears OPEN
He related a story Of an editor who
started paper in new village at the
West. The town was infested by gam
blers, whose presence was source of
annoyance to the citizens, who told the
editor that if he did not come out
against them they would not patronize
his paper. He replied that he would
give them 'smasher'' next day
Sure enough, his next issue contained
the promised "smasher," and on the
following morning the redoubtable edi-
tor, with scissors in hand, was seated
in bis sanctum cutting out news, when
in walked a large man with club in
his hand, and demanded to know if the
editor was in. mo, sir" was the re-
ply; he has stepped out. Take a
seat and read the papers; he will re-
turn in a miaute." Down sat the in
dignant man Of cards, crossed his legs,
with his club between them, and COM
menced reading a paper. In the min
utesthe editor quietly vamosed down
stairs, and at the landing below he
met another excited man with crud-
gel in his hand, who asked him if the
editor was in. Eyes, sir" was the
prompt response "you will find him
seated up stairs reading newspaper"
The latter on entering the room, with
q furious oath commenced a violent
assault upon the former, which was
resisted with equal ferocity. The fight
was continued until they had both roll
ed to the foot of the stairs, and pound
ed each other to their hearts con-
tent

o. The word "buckwheat," is a
corruption of the word "beechwheat,"
the name formerly given to this grain
from the resemblance of its kernel to
the beachnut. 1t is supposed to have
originated in Asia, though this is I'M
certain. It's used for bread in China,
and the East, but in Great Britain its
main consumption has been in feeding
horses, and poultry. In America it is
much esteemed, as all know. for max.
ing cakes, which are eaten warm.

~ AT a Fillmore and Donelsor

II AT a Fillmore and Donelson
meeting in New York, the New York
Express says "that while Mr.. Brooks
was speaking, he was interrupted by
one Of the Fremont men present who
declared that John G. Fremont had
as good qualifications for the Presi-
dency as George Washington, and
that, like Washington, he was to 60
into the White House. The matter
was not more audacious than the man
ner was impudent, and the disturber
had leave to make more sudden exit
than the speaker desired. II is pity
that cur free speech" Republicans
cannot hear themselves and opinions
spoken Of, even with kindness, with
out betraying the weakness Of their
cause. The Fillmore men are in per-
feet good humor with themselves and
the prospect, because sanguine Of the
result"

10 The following touching story is
told in inevitable style. Small chill

by eagles. not only in Switzerland but
in Scotland and other mountainous
countries:
The saddest story that was ever
read was that of a little child in Swift

one bright morning rugged out in a
beautiful jacket all shining with gilt
and buttons, and gay as mothers
love could make it, and then permit
ted him to 60 out to play. lie had
scarcely stepped from the door Of the
Swiss cottage when a enormous
eagle scooped him from the earth, and
bore him to his nest, high up among
the mountains, and yet within sight OF
the house Of which he had been the
joy. There he was killed and devour-
ed, the eyrie being at q point which
was literally inaccessible to man, SO
that no relief could be afforded. In
tearing the child to pieces the eagle SO
placed his gay jacket in the nest that
it became fixture there, and when
ever the wind blew it would flutter,
and the sun would shine upon its love-
ly trimmings aud ornaments. For
years it was visible from the lowlands,
long after the eagle had abandoned
the nest What a sight it must have
been to the parents of the victim.
