A Coon THING TO HAvE.-No fami-
y should be without Ponds excelsior wash =
ing machine. 1t does . large or small
washing in less than half the time that it
can be done by hand, and consequently
with Lslft the labor 1t does the work we'll,
and takes away all the dread cr washing day.
All those familiee which have washing to do
land few there be that have none) should
not be without one Of these indispensable
articles. provided they have any mer-
cy upon the washwoman. The construc.
tion OF the machine is such that either large
or small articles may be washed with equal
facility. Having had one of these machines
in our family for sufficient time to know
its virtues. we do not hesitate to recon-
mend it. They are made and sold in this
city by B. Sage-shop on Third street be-
tween Brady and Perry. See ADVERTISE

PERsoNAL.-We learn by special
dispatch to the st. Louis Republican Of Sat
urday, dated Atchson, Sept. 80, that Mr..
John Warner. Of Rock Island, had just ar.
rived Is passenger from Denver City
Mr.. Warner reports discoveries of new and
rich diggings on the South Platte. He
brings in rich pecimeus of quartz and shot
gold.
DANGERous.-We learn there has
been considerable sickness among children
lately from eating freely of green hickory
and hazel nuts, which are 90 plenty all over
the bluffs this season. They are gathered
while green, and should be hulled and
stored away for winter use. instead of being
devoured in an unripe state. Eating them
thus 10 productive of chills and bilious
complaints, which should be guarded
against.
PRETTY GooD.-By reference to our
commercial column it will be seen that the
grain transactions Of the last week ending
yesterday are by no means msagrs. Some
81 900 bushsls ei grain were received. and
probably ons.fourth part Of It shippsd.-

How Mr.. Seward Dressed for tho
Queens Reception.

The London correspondent of the N. Y
Herald writes: ~.
Before closing, must relate an anecdote
which Governor Seward tells himself with
much gusto. When the messenger reached
him, announcing that Her Majesty had fixed
an hour for his audience, the Governor was
at the Derby races with Lord Napier and
other distinguished members of the nobility.
Her Majesty had fixed the audience for that
very day, and the Governors court dress
had not yet been ordered. What was to be
done? Lord Napier was consulted. In q
few moments, Lord N. and Governor s.
were flying towards London as fast as whip
and wheels could carry them. The city
gained, they soon reached the shop of
Prince Albert's tailor. A court suit was
ordered to be made in two hours time
The tailor demurred-said he could do won
ders, but that was impossible. But, happy
man that he is, he was never without an ex-
pedient. The Governor was required to
STRIP off his black pants, and with one dash
of the shears, off came the legs of the pants
at the knees.
There stood the Senator in his drawers,
coat, and hat Whisk went the tailors;
The gold knee buckles, diamond clasps, and
rosettes were soon adjusted. The long draw
ers and boots gave place to silk stockings
and pumps ornamented with elegant buckles
similar to those for the knees. Next went
on an exquisite cambria shirt with rufled
bosom and wristbands, clasped gold but
tons, set in diamonds. The hair-dresser
with his tongues, was meanwhile at work,
the cooked hat was jauntily put in place,
the straight sword was buckled to his side,
and our good friend, to all appearance was
the elegant courtier, fit to embellish the
drawing room of any Court. The hour of
audience arrived, and the splendid equipage
of the Governor rolled into the court yard
of St. James. The Queen was in waiting,
and the distinguished visitor was received
by Her Majesty in the most gracious man
ner, who condeseended to compliment Gov
ernor Seward on his eloquent efforts in be-
half of freedom in the American Senate

Bag~ A few years ago, Rev. Mr.. B., a
faithful, fearless preacher, in one of the
+" hill towns of Hampshire county, preach
ed a pointed sermon against the use of ar
dent spirits, especially designed for men,
Der of his congregation who was in the hab-
it of hiring his help at low price, in con-
sideration of the frequent " treats" that he
furnished his workmen "Old Nat" felt him
self particularly hit" by the discourse, as
the coat fitted him exactly, and, therefore,
absented himself from church for some two
years. A few weeks ago he was seized
with his last illness, and expressed desire
to see Rev. Mr.. B before he died His
son went post haste for the minister, who,
of course, was quite ready to respond to the
dying mans summons. On entering the
room he was greeted with the cool sal uta-
ton: "Mr. B, am about to die, and
have sent for you that you might have
chance to apologize to me for that liquor
sermon you preached to me two years ago."
