9 TICKLING A WOMAN.

=. a few nights ago nne OF our cltizenS'
residing in the southern part ofthe city, was
aroused from his slumbers by the cries OF
woman, mingled with certain untranslata-
bic oaths, uttered in the yernacular of Fa-
Gerland. He hastily drew on his inexpressi-
1bles, and thusting his toes into pair of slip
uers, ran across the street to the scene of the
disturbance. Placing his shoulders against
the door, he leaned his weight Gone hundred
and sixty against it, and the next moment
tumbling headlong into small apartment,
which was the chamber of Gotheib Gotten
schneider. Picking himself up and looking
around, he beheld novel spectacle Be-
fore him stood the venerable Gotleib, d.
3 min;tive figure, standing about FIVE feet four,
without stockings a woolen night cap was
drawn over his ears, and was the only gar
ment that ornamented his person, except a
hickory shirt, which was world too wide
for his Lilliputian proportions. Gotleib held
in his hand stout hickory hoop-pole, which
was raised in the attitude of striking Be-
fore him was woman Of the dimensions of
q ahaystaek, dressed with some taste, and
wearing jaunty bonnet on the back OF her
head. This was Christini, the portly froW
Of Gotenschneider. -...-.
Tears were coursing down her fat rosy
cheeks, and she was talking low Dutch with
amazing volubility.

you been whipping your wife again, Got
ieib? Didn't I tell you that the next time
/ Icaught you striking a woman, I'd lam you
out of your boots 2"
