REsIGNATIoN.-The telegraph announc.
es the resignation of Hon. Benjamin Rob-
bins Curtis, an associate Justice Of the
Supreme Court of the United States. AS
he was one of the minority on that bench,
protesting against the decision of the
Chief Justice in the Dred Scott case, the
President, who foreshadowed the deci-
sion and approved it, will, perhaps, hon
or Rufus Choale, or some other convert
to the new doctrine with the ermined robe
which Mr.. Curtis so worthily wore, and
laid aside so soon. Mr. Justice Curtis is
a native of Watertown, near Boston, and
is yet not forty-eight years of age. He
graduated at Harvard before he had com
pleted his twentieth year. In the law
School of that University, he commenced
with ardor the study of the legal profes-
sion, under the teaching of Professor
Ashman, and the accomplished Ameri-
can Jurist and Commentator on the Con-
stitution. Judge Story. Admitted to the
bar in 1882, he devoted two years to his
profession in the Western counties, re-
moving to Boston in 1884, where for
seventeen years he was distinguished for
his abilities, interrupted only on two oc-
caslons, when. to secure some legal re-
forms, he became member of the Mass
achusetts Legislature.
Mr.. Curtis had been Wing, but not
a partizan. On the death of Judge Levi
Woodbury., in September, 1851, he was
appointed by President Fillmore to the
distinguished position on the Supreme
Bench, which he now resigns.

How GUANo GREW UP YANKEE BoY.
A Yankee lad whose father was far
mer, went into the barn yard to play, a
short time ago, and being detained pris-
oner by a thunder storm, he fell asleep
on a bag of guano. The old gentleman,
when the storm was over, went into the
barn yard to look after his son, and met
a giant eight feet high, coming out of the
barn.
Hullo who are you ?" he cried,
:" what are you doing here ?"
"Why. father" squeaked the Goliah,
" it's me don't you know Tommy"
You y the astonished parent ex-
claimed, "why, Tommy, how on earth
did You get stretched out so long in so
short time 90
Why, father" replied the boy, look
ing down upon the gaping old man,
slept on those bags of guano as you put
in the barn, and that and the lightning
together has done the business"

My Cruelties to my Relatives.

don't know what evil genius prompted

in my eyes that it was such which
perpetrated towards my wife and my an

day before my aunt's arrival, "you know
Aunt Mary is coming tomorrow +; well,
forgot to mention rather annoying cir
cumstance with regard to her. She S
very deaf; and although she can heai
my voice, to which she is accustomed,
in its ordinary tones, yet you will be
obliged to speak extremely loud in order
to be heard. 1t will be rather inconve-
nient, but know you will do everything
in your power to make her stay agreea-
ble."
Mrs. S. announced her determination
to make herself heard if possible.
then went to John Thomas, who
loves joke about as well as any person |
know of, told him to be at my house at
6. P. NJ, on the following evening, and
felt comparatively happy.

said, My, dear aunt, there is one rather
annoying infrmity that Amelia has,
which l forgot to mention before. She's
very deaf; and although she can hear
my voice, to which she is accustomed, in
iits ordinary tones, yet you, will be obliged
to speak extremely loud in order to be

Aunt Mary, in the goodness of her
heart, protested that she rather liked
speaking loud, and to do so would afford
her great pleasure.

"Ia am delighted tosee you" shricked
my wife. and the policeman on the oppo-
site side of the street started, and my
'aunt nearly fell down the steps.
:" Kiss me, my DEAR" howled my
aunt; and the hall lamp clattered, and
the windows shook as with the fever and

had disappeared. Human nature could
stand it no longer. Ipoked my head in
10 the carriage, and went into strong con
yulsions.

Truly great men have ever been the

Truly great men have ever been the
workers of the world,
An English writer in paper upon
Andrew Euler says: Walk around the
cathedral aisles where the memories of
the great dead are found, and you will
see the tombs at which the crowd stop
and hold their breath in reverence, are
not the tembs of dreamers but of work
ers, all of workers. Mark them as they
pass from statue to statue They come
to Shakespeare, and the memory of pleas
ant hours of quiet enjoyment finds its
way to the face. But moving on to
Howard, see how they pause before the
tall figure with a brothers love beaming
from the cold marble, and the chained
prisoner at his side while the lifeless
memorial of love yet warm and living,
bids the big tear steal unchallenged to
its shrine.

Pork" A fat hog is the very quint-
essence of scrofular and carbonic acid
gas, and he who eats it must not expect
thereby to build up sound physical or
ganism. While it contributes heat, there
is not one twentieth part of it nitrogen,
the base of MUSCLE"
This is sound practical truth, Fat
pork was never designed for human food
it is material for breath and nothing
more ;see Liebig and other organic chem

Travelling on the cars from O. to
M, not long since, in the night, we
happened to have the good fortune to get
in the same box with a regular blue devil
exterminator, by whom, let it be surmi-
sed, our drowsy optics were kept expand
ed. This individual answered to the
name of !" Bat" and his description Of
"Norf Kerliner," her manners and Gus
toms, gave the listener anything but a
favorable impression of the tar and tur-
pentine State...Thus
Why, sin dog with a long tail in
North Carolina, would be as great a show
as a nigger with three heads"
"Why SO 90 was asked.
"Why they cut them off, to prevent
'em from knocking off all the buckle
berries when they're chasin' TIE foxes
and rabbits through the woods"
"Phew ~ came from listener.
"Fact, certain as rain and you'll new
er see man or boy there with buttons on
his pants
"What then ?" asked one.
Pegs !" answered the imperturbable
Bat "wear the buttons all off climbing
after persimmons.
" Go it, Bat" cheered an acquaint-
ance.
"And III tell you another thing"
said he, they have to bell their little
niggers just as we do our calves"
What for 90
90 SO that their owners can tell which
gopher hole they're in %
a general scream followed this the
cars screamed, and we all jumped off at
M. Hope We'll see him again.
