What = Mule Did.

About four miles east of Wheeling two fine farms.
owned by different parties, join each other The pro-
prietors OF the two sections Of land have been fast
friends for fifteen years. their fathers before
them, and would have SO continued but for fhe cir
cumstances which we are about to relate. They at
at each others board, partook Of each Others grub
and everything in partnership and fast and familiar
friendship. The sons of the one courted the daugh-
tiers Of the other, They were Of the same religion
| and sat undern the same preacher. They appro-
priated each others property as il 'twere owned in
lationshp never existed between two families. All
this friendship was broken up, and all these social
tiles were sundered by confounded stubborn mule,
whose great great great grandfather ought to have
been poisoned the minute he left Malta. The mule
belonged to farmer Wheat, as we shall call him. and
was as ugly and vagabondish specimen Of his race
as could be.
Well, this mule had none of what Prof Fowler
would call nor any other redeeming
| organ. He was always leaving his masters stock
| yard, and sticking his melancholy ph1 into farmer
kyes granares and choice stacks. Farmer Rye, with
commendable patience would conduct him hack "a
his breach Of hospitality, but said nothing to his ex
ceent neghb0r about the annoyance, until the long,
cared qaadruped became an uncomfortable nuisance.
promised to to securing his muleship and change
the latters predictions style Of living. Notwithstand
ing this promise the mule continued to trepass and
farmer Rye continued to grin and bear IT. A few
into Ryes barn.yard and after consuming about two
tuns Of hay and sheaf of OATS added insult to In
jury by kicking and manning for life available horse
belonging TO the last named exemplary gentleman.
This was the hair that broke the mules back. Here
forbearance ceased to be virtue, and Farmer Rye,
aroused by the noise in his barn yard from his
bed took down his rife and sent bullet straight to
the lank head of the cause of oil his rbulations and
dead jackass lay weltering in his own gore. When
Farmer Wheat the fate Of bis beloved ackass-
o jackass that had been in his family for years.
and was connected with SO many pleasant associa.
tons he went over to farmer Rye and rung his nose,
whereupon the son of the latter knocked him down
with fail, and all about poor, starveling Of
jackass. l0lri5is M 80 sssssl7sl ll5Fs'sa5 "a
Now all is discord and dissension between the two
families No more counting no more social gather
ings; no more drippings from the same sanctuary.
Al the little peasantries that go to make country
life so agreeable, knocked into the middle Of next
week. Farmer Rye is going to sue Farmer Wheat
for damages, and Farmer Wheat ia going to sue the
son of Farmer Rye for assault with intent to kill.
When the County Court comes on we will give the
sequel to " what mule did," ....sSsY..4 5ss
