Strange Story Of a Drunkard

In Paris, a worthy musician be-
longing to The orchestra Of thea.
ire, residing on the Bouleyards.-
This fine fellow. having toasted BAG
chus for q considerable length Of
time, returned hoI.e at two ia the
morning, staggering and singing
Arrived at his door, be finds a
drunken man on his Threshold
He interests himself ID his fellow
Itippler.
Come, my good man, says he, you
can't stop there My. bed is large =
Il offer you my hospitality
So saying, he raises the man who
is drunken than him, and can't sus-
tain himself Our musician half
pushing him reaches at last the
fourth. story;. he opens. his door,
put him in. bis chamber, draws the
Ecurtains and puts him in the bed.
Tranquil then as to the condition
i Of bis new friend. he says to him
self: Its shameful, my boy
Here's a fellow drnnkere than you
are II ought not to be. And it
shan't be- s
And reasoning thus, be. leaves
his room, going down the street,
istumbles against a man stretched
on the ground. Its another drum
ken man, drunken than the first
lie tries to raise him. but he is.se
drunk it is impossible. BY great
Efforts, however, be finally gets him
up and carries him TO his ROOM
lie places him on his bed, then
goes out fof something to drink,
with the laudable intention of being
as drunk as his guests. At his door
he finds a third drunken man.
What S tbis!' said he. Another
one: There'll be three in my bed.
No matter, they can settle it among
themselves. $
He takesthe third 'drunkard on
his back, carries him TO his cham
Der and throws him on bis bed, then
worn by fatigue, falls on the arm
chair and goes to sleep.
Presently day begins to dawn
A fresh breeze awakens our musi-
eian.. He looks; around. His bed
is empty and the window open.
. How said be, have they gone
without saying good bye2 Most
decidedly ! won't dosa good action
again.
He raises and looking out the
window sees a man lying on the
ground. WELL thinks be, this is
a night for drunkards. Humanity
induces him to descend; and be
finds the man dead and horribly
manned on the pavement. 1t was
his friend whom he had thrown cut
of the Window three times, inten-
ding to throw him on the bed!

TERRIBLE EXPLOSION.

We find in the New York Herald the following
particulars Of the terrible explosion which took place
in that city ON Wednesday night last, and which was
briefly noticed in the elegraphc column Of the Union
ON the following day:
''About 5 o'clock yesterday evening the plaster mills
owned by King Brothers, in West street, between Jane
and Hoaio, destroyed by the bursting of boiler
Adjoining the mills at the north side two tenement
houses occupied by Irish and Germans consisting in all
of two hundred persons These houses also fell be-
meath the terrific explosion and it is supposed that
al of the inmates buried in the ruins. The shock
caused by 1t felt for considerable distance throwing
the people in the vicinity and all within its reach into
the utmost alarm and confusion Various opinions
expressed regarding the of it, Some attribute it to
tho careessness OF the engineer while Others say the
boiler totally unfit for At the time left there
could not be less than ten thousand people looking at the
ruins of whom aiding the fremen in roscung
the sufferers from the awful fate that otherwise awaited
them. The police also efficient They had ropes
all around the ruins and kept the crowd at bay thereby
giving those working among the ruins better opportun
ty of being of service to those buried beneath The
gineer at time almost rescued he talked with
the remen and they had reached him to touch his
leg, when of sudden another pile of the materials fell
and buried the poor fellow still further down We sub
sequeny waited considerable time and up to the time
of leaving they had not found him.
"Unt the ruins are cleared it will be difficult to find
out how many lost Some persons under the i'm
preston that there must be good number Of those who
lived in the tenement houses The friends Of the differ
ent persons paradng the ruins raising melancholy
cry for their husbands fathers and mothers On the
whole it sad and distressing to witness The
different houses in the neighborhood which escaped unn
jured were open to the wounded. In man

of the wounded taken away before arrival

Mr. Banks and Mr.. Burlingame addressed the peo-
pie of Springfield on Friday night Of last week in
favor of the election of Mr. NJ p. Banks to the Office
of governor of Massachusetts,. The Boston Courier
says that an enterprising journalist Of that city de-
spatched photographer to Springfield to take notes
of the 4lite iron mans" speech, with instructions to
return in the New York train at III o'clock The
reporter was faithful but the paper, in the mean
time having changed its politics, did not print the
address, and the next morning advocated the candi-
