MAD Doc IN A School RooM-The Wash
ington Star of juno 10th says: No little ex-
element was created yesterday in the female
department of the Fourth District School, Miss
Milburn,0 by, the entrance into the school room
of a rabid dog, foaming at the mouth, snap
ping as he ran along the passing, and exhibiting
the usual signs of madness in such sort that
the greatest alarm was naturally excited in the
school room Mr.. John 4. Thompson, principal
of the male department, with much presence
of mind, restrained some of the larger boys,
who courageously volunteered to assail the
unguardedly some of them might be bitten
Mr.. Thompson then undertook the dangerous
task of e%jecting the dog from the room, and
was so fortunate as to succeed in so doing, with
out injury to himself or any of the pupils
The dog died in great apparent agony shortly
after.

JOAN Don PEDRo.-This distinguished Sc
ger, "a native of Spain, a resident of Cuba,
and a Spanish Missionary"-so he described
himself in his Observation-Disclosures a
Lecture in the Town Hall in Ashland, on Fri
day and Saturday evenings last. Joan is a
missionary among our Republican fellow-ci-
%tizens, to enlighten them upon the question of
the Annexation of Cuba. To what extent he
sasaeeded in his Missionary efforts here we
cannot say but the Republicans were evident
ly not pleased with his discourse or his ways
Joan Don Pedro, Esq, &c, &C., has not a very
fair skin-and some of our Republican friends
thought they smelled the blood of a "niger,"
and turned up their noses in disgust. The il
lustrious Don talks Spanish, and we understand
that when he left he uoazhed Spanish. He con-
cluded his visit here by giving apractical illus
tration of his annexation doctrines in taking
with him the last and only specimen of the fe-
male aboriginal race we had in our midst-the
last daughter of the last Moheean.

WHY Is IT 2-"Why is it," we are frequent
ly questioned, that every one prefers to pur-
chase their books of the great Gift Book Estab-
lishment of d. w. Evans & Co. 677 Broad
way, New York City, when there are so many
competitors in the field of trade, each striving
TO call the attention of the public to the various
advantages offered by them. Having had some
dealings with this House, we are prepared to
state that they owe their unparalleled success,
not to their wealth or experience, which has
given them so high a standing among their
compeers, but simply to the undeviated line of
integrity which they have followed from the
commencement of their business career.
The firm of D. w. Evans & Co.. is not to
be COMPOUNDED with others advertising in diff
ferent cities under a similar name; they loca-
ted their business in 1854, long before any firm
now in operation had an existence, and it is
known as the Pioneer Gift Book Store, being
the Oldest established, and most extensive in
the world.
To enumerate their various advantages and
facilities, in advance of their competitors,
would fill a column, but among the more mott
ceable features, we may call attention to the fact
that they take all risk of loss through the mail,
trade SO that any one, by following the direc-
tions, can purchase as safely and cheaply. with
the assurance of a quick and abundant return
for their investment, as at their own doors.
Owing to the immense business transacted
with the different Express Companies, the
freight charges on packages are comparatively
light, while they are forwarded with the great
est dispatch to their different points of destin-
alton. From two hundred to three hundred
packages daily are whirled over the iron rail to
every section of the country, each parcel of
different values, ranging from ten dollars to
hundred.
Nor is their patronage entirely confined to
this country. 1t is a strange item of this Won
derful system that Messrs. Evans & Co. have
their business transactions to every
known quarter of the globe-South America,
Asia, Africa, Australia, and even the
Sandwich Islands,, in the midst of the wild
Pacific; all have lent their patronage to the
sOriginal Gift Book Store" of D. w. Evans
& Co.
The number of persons who directly or indi-
rectly find honorable and lucrative employment
through their business is scarcely credible
Aside from the many clerks employed night
md day at the store in New York, over three
agents are located in different parts
IF the United States, to collect and forward or
lers to their great Receiving House. Their
is to have a permanent agent located
n every town throughout the country, SO that
the end of the present year the number of
heir employees will exceed tr0cnty thousand.
Ashland, and all who desire books will do
veil to call and leave their orders, as they may
assured of a safe and abundant return for
my investment they may make.

ANOTHER v1cronY OF THE sw1NE!-Tb

ANOTHER VICTORY OF THE SWINE The
town authorities, after employing about three
weeks in passing the proper Ordinance, and
adopting 1other measures with a view of ma
king "a good ready" determined to have an
election on Monday and elect a Marshal clothed
with authority to F'put through" the refractory
Swine. The polls were accordingly opened on
the morning of that day, and after some vo-
ting and some fuss and scolding, it was discov-
-ered that the legal notice had not been given,
and the election would consequently be void /!
So here we have another triumph of the Pork
ers-making their third victory over the Town
authorities. The Swine will have the freedom
of the Town on the Fourth, andmay gruntard
.squal as loud as the Caliope without violating
the public peace. TIL Council, however, are
a persevering body, and they are resolved to
"pick their fints" and give the quadrupeds
another "~tussle.""
P. s. Since uniting the above, We learn that
the election sewent ON" and that Mr.. HILDER-I
BRAND waselected Treasurer, and Mr.. DEsEN-
BURG was elected Marshal. The Swine, how
ever, it is understood, will contest the election.
They nose too much to give up to any force of
an election. The Hogs evidently understand
they are aboat, and they nose what they
pose. They dos.
