RATHER INQUIsITIvE.- Gov. L, was
one of the most inveterate jokers of the early
times in which he figured. An anecdote is told
Of him which has never been related in print,
and never can be, perhaps, with much effect,
but we will try to do it.
One fall, as he was returning from the Legis-
lature on horseback, as usual at that day. he
was hailed from house by a garrulous old
maid, who had often annoyed him with ques-
tions respecting public affairs.
"Well, Governor" said she, coming towards
the road, "what new laws have you passed at
Montpelier this time?'
"Well, one rather singular law among the
rest, he replied.
"Now tell Now, what is it, Governor? "
said the excited querist.
"Why, that the woman in each town who
has the smallest mouth shall be warranted a
husband.o
" What " said the other, drawing up her
mouth to the smallest compass, what a queer,
curious law that is
:" Yes, but we have passed another that beats
that-the woman who has the largest mouth is
to have two husbands
"Why, w-h-a-t?" exclaimed she old maid,
instantly relaxing her mouth and stretching it
wider at every syllable. " What a remarkable
law that is when does it come in force, Gov
ernor +"
At this the Governor put spurs to his horse
and vanished

Burial of an Indian.

" Tuck-a-lix-tah, or The Owner of Many
Horses, one of the delegations of Pawnees, now
in this city on official business, died at Mrs.
Maher's Union Hotel. He came up their af-
hicted with severe cold, and although every
attention has been paid him by his kind host
ess, he has gradually grown worse, until his
recovery was hopeless The acting commission
er Of Indian affairs had the best medical atten-
dance provided for him, but the poor fellow
had little faith in the medicine Of the white
man, because it did not cure him instantly
Shortly before his death he expressed regret
that he could not have fallen in battle, and
hoped that his Great Father (the government)
would give his brother horse as memento
of him. He had his pipe, tomahawk and jew
elry placed in a box, and desired that they
might be buried with him. The remainder of
the Pawnee delegation, especially nephew of
the deceased appeared greatly afflicted at his
death. The funeral took place Tuesday morn.
ing. The corpse was neatly dressed in a cit
izen's black suit, and laid on new blanket in
handsome mahogany coffin, in which were
strewed natural flowers from the public green
house. After few remarks at the hotel by the
Rev. John G. Smith, of the Ninth Street
Presbyterian Church, the coffin was placed in
hearse, and long procession was formed, in
Guiding twenty seven carriages. The acting
commissioner of Indian affairs, several clerks of
the Indian Bureau, the agents and interpreters,
and the Indians now here, followed the corpse
to its last resting place, in the congressional
burial ground. After the coffin had been depos-
tied in the grave, the Rev. Mr. Smith offered an
impressive prayer, which was followed by a
brief eulogy from Loup, chief of the pawnees
now here, and few appropriate remarks by
acting commissioner Mix. The interpreter then
placed on the coffin, box containing the person
al decorations of the deceased, with his club and
tomahawk, and covered the whole with his buff
falo robe. The grave was then filed and the
large encourse of spectators dispersed. > Wash

WArER-SpoUr-A water-spout is whirl-
wind over the surface of water; it differs from
whirlwind on land in the fact that water, in
stead of objects on the surface of the earth, is
acted on by the wind. The spout at the base
ranges in diameter from few feet to several
hundreds, and its altitude is supposed to be up
ward Of mile.
When an observer is near the spout, loud
Kissing noise is heard, and the interior of the
column seems to be traversed by running
stream.
The successive appearances of water-spout
are as follows At first it appears to be dark
cone, extending from the clouds to the water !;
then it becomes column uniting with the wa
ter. After continuing for little time, the col
umn becomes disunited, the cone reappears, and
is gradually drawn up into the clouds.
1t is q common belief that water is sucked up
by the action of the spout into the cloud; but
there is reason to suppose that water rather de-
scends from the clouds, as water which has
fallen from spout upon the deck of a vessel
has been found to be fresh. Further, there is
no evidence that continuous column of water
exists within the whirling pillar.

Fight with a Wildcat.

"A GAINESVILLE correspondent gives to the
Chicago Times an account of a desperate fight
between John Weber and ferocious wildcat.
Weber and few other amateur sportsmen
were hunting for rabbits in the woods skirting
the banks of Rock river Weber supposing he
mad burrowed rabbit on the top of the bluff,
about one hundred feet above the water, pro-
cured a stick and undertook to dislodge The
game by punching. His efforts were to success
iul, Tor, instead of rabbit. formidable look
ing wildcat sprang out of the hole and PITCHED
IN for a fight. Weber not knowing the ma
ture OF his antagonist, was taken at a disad-
vantage. He had no knife, End the yarrnint's
teeth and claws were sharp. Mein Gott du
peest der fader Won all rabbits = he exclaimed,
as the cat made a leap at his throat. The
bank was very steep, and at the first onset,
Weber lost his footing, and hunter and wildcat
rolled in rough-and tumble to the bottom. It
was battle for life or death, and the cat was
most at home in that sort of a contest. The
hunter gave the varmint a few well-put eye
openers with his fist, but his catship soon put
a stop to that gain by seizing Weber's hand
with his teeth and holding it fast. With the
other hand he then tried to throstle the mon
ster, but he soon found his claws in the way.
After rolling down the bank distanc of ninety
feet from where the fight commenced, the hun
ter succeeded in getting uppermost of his
antagonist when he hastily halloed Murder =
This brought one of his companions to the rescue,
who, crawling down the steep bank, placed
his rifle to the varmint's head and made hole
through it. The wildcat then gave up beat.
1t was found that Weber had been bit
through the hands five times, besides numer-
Gus severe scratches upon his body. The
wounded parts Immediately commenced swell
ing in an alarming manner, and he was visited
by dizziness and faintness to such degree that
his companions were obliged to carry him home,
and provide medical assistance. He was found
to be severely but not dangerously wounded.
the wildcat was one of the ordinary northern
species, and weighed twenty pounds.

A MIxED-UP LAW SUIT.-An exchange tells
of a" mixed-up law suit (which came off in
Vermont last fall. 1t seems that Smith shot a
rabid dog that was trespassing on his lot, and
belonging to one Davidson. Dog ran into the
road and frightened a horse belonging to one
Shufelt. Shufelt's horse ran away, upset a
wagon, and broke leg belonging to W. Ii.
Patterson. The question now is-who shall
Patterson sue for damages-Smth, Shufelt,
or Davidson? As Smith had caused the acci-
dent. Shufelt allows that Smith should foot
the bill. Smiths counsel objects TO this by
saying that Smith was doing lawful act in a
lawful manner, and that as the horse was
frightened by the dog, the owner of the dog
(Davidson) should pay the damages. David
sons lawyer claims, on the contrary, that he is
not holden, because the dog was not mad; and
lif he were mad, he would not have frightened the
horse had Smith attended to his own business
and let the dog alone How the question will
come out, will be known in June, when the
Court sits.

over the spirit of Stephens dream he took
up the business of being respectable man !!
and well and honorably did he follow that busi-

girl of nineteen, who, in about twelve-montl
after the knot was tied, presented her aged bu
loved and loving lord, with as fine and healthy
female baby, as ever filled fathers hear
with joy. He supported himself and little fam
lily, for several years, by receiving and educating
at his residence, young lads, the sons of wealth,
gentlemen of Montreal, Three-Rivers, Quebec
and other places. These young lads looked VI
to their aged tutor-who had an exceedingl,
happy tact of imparting knowledge to his pu
pils-as to kind father and, at the expira
ton of their studies, quilted Ibis pleasant dwell
ing, with the utmost regret. Although tn
morning and noon of his life was cloudy AM
forbdding, the evening was blameless ant
peaceful. Reformation never got hold of

Burroughs in hand, and never did she perform
her work more completely or effcctually. Hi
many virtues will ever be remembered wit

ings of this man well assured, that a long ca
rcer of error, closed by an exemplary life

CaOtAer Ne,O CounteEtsit.-Another exceed
ingly dangerous counterfeit on the State Bank
of Ohio has been discovered, which has UNI
doubtedy had an extensive circulation. It is

so well executed that the very best judges find
difficulty in detecting it. Engravers are Of the
opinion that the impression must have been
taken, in part at least from genuine engravings,
so perfect is the imitation. There is no mark
by which the counterfeit can be distinguished
from the genuine, and as the former have un-
dOnbtedly been changed in the filing up so as
to represent the several branches, the only safe
plan is to refuse all notes OF tie denomination
Of $40 on the Stute Bank of Ohio. The coun-
terfeit is not new one, and some of our bank
