A FRIENDSHIP BETWEEN AN OWL AND A
CROW.
From The Cincinnati Enquirer.

Some weeks since Mr.. Pratt, the senior pro-
prietor Of the Spencer House, owned an owl and
a crow that had apparently formed deep at
tachment for each other. They were always to,
gether, and seemed to hold a kind of mutuai
conversation, which, however unintelligible to
Others must have given them great satisfaction.
The crow wauld often bring food to the owl, and
was always anxious to do some act that would
prove acceptable. The firm friendship existing
between the two birds was the subject of gener-
al remark by the guests and habitues of the ho-
TEL who frequently watched them by the hour.
Their intimate association and kindness were
really curious to witness, and elected many spec
ulations upon the nature of birds and their ca
pabilty of affection.
One day the owl fell ill, and the crow, ever at
his side, expressed as much sorrow and sympa-
thy as a human creature could, appealing ever
and anon by looks to passers-by, as if inviting
aid and comfort for his sick friend. The owl
was dangerously indisposed for nearly week,
and, at the termination of that period, died in
spite of every effort of the crow to prolong his
existence.
The crow was inconsolable. Nothing could
Danish the memory of his feathery friend, and
little doubt exists in our mind that had he been
apoet he would have written another "Adonais, "

THE PIXIES PEAK HUMBUG.

While there is little doubt that there will be
many thousands en- route for Pixies Peak so
soon as favorable Spring weather has arrived,
it is very evident that many who have passed
through the early stages of the "fever," are
under the wholesome warnings of the press not
pecuniarily interested in Misrepresentation
covering from the attack, and are beginning to
receive with more caution the uncorroborated
and extravagant stories concerning this new Ell
Dorado.
The fact is, the Pixies Peak vultures have
been cutting it little too fat; and in their anx-
iety to furnish marvellous accounts of the dis
covery Of almost untold wealth on Cherry Creek,
they have indulged in such unreasonable state
ments that many who at first wanted to be con-
vinced, are becoming incredulous and suspicious.
Unfortunately for the cormorants who hoped to
prey upon the hard earnings of the restless and
adventurous, parties are arriving every few days
from the Peak, nearly all of whom give very
unfavorable opinions of its richness and its in
yiting features. Even several Kansas newspa-
pers, whose editors would rejoice to know that
the hopes of profitable labor on their western
borders were well founded-who feel that Kan
sas would reap rich reward from a general
emigration thither-are expressing gravedoubts
of the authenticity of the glowing reports from
the Peak, and have raised their warning voice
against tne excitement. III is slgnlncant fact
that the only newspapers in Kansas which re-
ceive hattering accounts from the "gold region"
are published in towns which claim to be the
most favorable points for the purchase of out
fits, provisions and means Of conveyance.
A number of trading sharks are now on Cher
ry Creek, who, one year ago, took out large
stocks of goods, in anticipation of vast emf
grafton to Utah and California. But the dis
corded state of affairs amongst the Mormons,
effectually blocked the game; and in order to
find a market for their wares, it is stated they
originated the stories about Pixies Peak and
now hope to find plenty of purchasers next spring
for stocks which would otherwise have been left
to rot on the plains. We fear their nefarious
schemes will be in a measure successful but if
our feeble efforts will serve in any degree to al
lay this excitement, and induce men to stop and
reflect upon the hazard and folly of the move
ment they contemplate we shall feel that we
have done a good work. Let those who fatten
on the miseries and misfortunes of others, revile
us as they may, we shall continue to denounce
them.-Chicago Leader.

EVEN CHILD is KNOWN By HIS DoINGs.-
About ten years since, was in the country a
number Of weeks during the winter. There was
at one time large quantity of snow on the
ground. In the eastern part of the yard of the
house, where l was staying, was a snow drift
about three feet high. On the other side of the
drift from the house, was a large load of wood
on 4 farmers sled, that had been left there be-
fore the snow came. The man of the house said
to boy thirteen years old, who was staying
there awhile to do chores, "You 20 to that sled
and bring me a certain stick of wood (the man
specified it) from the top of the load"
The boy went Il was looking out of the win
dow,) and took hold of the stick, it was not as
heavy as he anticipated, and the jerk he gave it
sent him backwards into the snow-drift. There
he laid, flat his back, without stirring, giving
utterance, in loud tones, to the following:
"Why don't you come out here and get me
up; if you don't, I'll never get up; no business
to send me here I'll be blasted if don't lay
here until you come
No one went to his assistance-he laid there
until the snow cooled his temper
have always kept my eyes upon him, be-
cause thought he would make just such man
as he was boy. was right. He has spent ev-
cry dollar he has earned from that day to the
present time, and has been living for more than
year on his relatives, doing very little if any
thing, telling them if they wanted to get rid of
him they must look round and get him employ
ment, for he shall not stir himself - Cambridge
Chronicle.

DOMESTIC REcEIPTs.-A HARD AND DURA-
BILE SoAP.-A patent has been granted in Eng
land for an improvement in the manufacture Of
soap, by the addition of sulphate of lime to the
usual ingredients employed in its manufacture
The sulphate may be added to the soap in dry
powder, or in admixture with any of the usual
ingredients employed in the manufacture of soap.
The proportions of the sulphate which it is best
to employ, vary according to the article nanipu-
lated upon, and the quality of the soap to be
produced. Thus about twelve ounces of dry
sulphate is sufficient for one ton of best soap,
whereas, in common or highly lquored soap,
six or eight pounds may be used with advantage.
Soap, made with the addition of sulphate of lime,
becomes hardened, keeps dry, and is not liable
to shrink while in water, its durability is increas
ed, and it does not wear or waste away before
its cleansing properties are brought into action.

or '1n Memoriam,' upon his mournful bereave-
mcnt lie would eat nothing, no sayory morsel
could tempt him, and the choicest bits of his fa-
vorite food lay near him, day and night, un-
touched. The dark luster of the eyes of the la
menting fowl grew DINNER and DINNER; his
dimunitive legs weaker and weaker; famine
was in his every aspect; but still he would not
eat. In the hippant language of the day, he
would "die frst"-and he did.
nemorning early, the senior proprietor, who
was much attached to both the owl and the crow,
found the latter lying lfeless in the courtyard.
The poor bird was nothing but bones, not par
ticle of flesh remaining beneath his ebony plu-
mage. The crow had been true to his friend
ship as an ornithological Orestes, and had res
olutcly conquered, with heroic self-denial, life
not worth preserving after the loss of his 10Th
er soul"-the owl.

A SUCKER AT THE "PLANTER,"-The other
evening, a traveller from our sister State, full
blooded "Sucker," arrived in this city, and put
up at the "Planters' House" He rose betimes,
nextmorning, and discovered that his boots were
missing. Somewhat alarmed at the loss of his
understanding, and half attired he rushed out
into and through the passages, shouting for a
"waiter" at the top of his voice, to the great
noyance of the sundry young gentlemen in the
upper story, who are in the habit of always "sleep
ing it o6." Doors were opened and slammed
too again, and mutterings, not suited for ears
polite, might have been heard, on learning the
cause of the "fuss."
At length the "Sucker" found servant and
demanded his boots.
"Boots-boots, yes sir !"
"What number, sir P" asked the obsequious
attendant.
The Sucker looked rather obviously for a
moment, but frightened up as he answered.
"Pegged soles and heels, and number ticelres."

Three fishers vent sailing ort into the West
Out into the West, rs the nm went down;
Each thought of the woman That loved him best,
And the children stood watching them out Of the
town;
For mon must worknn women must weep,
And there's little to arn and many TO keep,
Though the harbor hr be moaning.
Three wives sat up in the lighthouse tower
Aud they trimud the lamp rs the sun went down,
They lookd at the squall, and they look'd at the
show'r
And the night-rack came rolling up ragged and
brown;
But men must work aud women must weep,
Tho storms be sudden and waters deep,
And the harbor bar be moaning.
Three corpses lay out on the shining sand,
In the morning CLEAN when the sun went down;
And the women are watching and wringng their
hands
For those that will never com, back to the town;
For men must toll and women must weep,
And the sooner it's DER the sooner to sleep,
And goodbye to the bar aud its moaning.

THE THREE MERCHANTS.

Three merchants wont riding out into the West.
On the top of the bus, rs the sun went down;
Each thought Of his wife and how richly she dre>t,
And the growing circumference of her new gown
For wives must dress and husbands must pay,
And there's plenty to get and little to say
While the milliner's bill is running
Three wives sat up in Jane Clark's for hours,
And they told her to put every article down;
They ordered the silks and they ordered the flowers
And the bill kept rolling up, gown upon gown;
For wives must dress and husbands will pay,
Though perhaps they will he in a terrible way
When they're duuned for the bill that is running.
Three bankrupts were figuring in the gazette,
On a Tuesday night when the sun went down,
And the women were weeping and quite in pet
For the dresses they will never show to the town;
For wives will dress, though husbands can't pay
And bankrupt Us surely the pleasantest way
To get rid Of the bill and the dunning
