Mistake Of a Printer.-A correspon-
dent of the Boston Ledger, writes from
Exeter, N. H., as follows:
The Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton have alse lecture on Thursday
evening of each week, given only by
clergymen, Rev. Drs. Kirk and Haven
of your city have given acceptable dis
courses. Rev. james Nj. Buckley de.
livcrs the lecture this week. This
course of lectures is free, and collec-
ton is taken at the close of each lee.
ture, to defray expenses. Quite ludi.
crous incident occurred the last week.
A gentleman who happened that even
ing to be flush, put into the bag what
he supposed was a dime and one cent,
but before he slept found that ten
dollar piece had taken the place of the
copper coin, and instead of being in
his own pocket was elsewhere. In the
mean time great had been the Joy of
the Lecture Committee, at the supposed
llberality of some unknown. Imagine
their discontinue, when tho unknown
appeared and claimed the half agile.
Of course it was given up, and the poor
printer (for brother typo he was, Mr..
Editor, believes that the next time
he'll know gold from dino and q
cent.

The Fun Of a Male Race,

At the County Fair at New Albany,
Ind, the people had most hearty
laugh over mule race after the fashion
of an Irish Donkey race, where each
man rides his neighbours beast, and the
last one in wins. 1t is not a bad way
of closing up cattle show. 1t is de-
cldedly better than"female equestrian
ISM" AT New Albany seven entries
were made, and when the drum tapped,
they all started, but were in few
moments strung along the track for q
mile; persons were stationed at proper
intervals for the purpose of keeping the
mules in the track, which they did at
considerable trouble. We never saw
such frenzed excitement as the crowd
exhibited when the winning mule, enter
ed by Andy Huchilman, came stumb-
