The exception to the general rule was an old
man with hairs upon his upper lip and chin,
all the others of the tribe were as innocent of
hair as woman's. The boards Of Kane's par
ty excited great curiosity and admiration among
the native residents of the Arctic regions.

Too FuNSY BY HALF.--A correspondent Of
the Sacramento Bee, inclined to be iacetious in
disposing of what he calls the inaccuracfes Of
Bayard Taylor's letters on California, ridicules
the idea ofthe "large beet weighing 5pounds,"
which Bayard says he saw at the last State
Fair There is mistake in the statement, to-
be-sure, inasmuch as that beet weighed
something nearer one hudred and mn than
one hundred and fifteen pounds, and was larger
round than the body Of common man Fact
we saw it!--GOlden Era.

little boy of his acquaintance on the cars, and
said to him, "This is quite a stormy day, my
SON" "Yes, sir" said the boy, "ths is quite
a wet rain" The clergyman, thinking to re-
buke such hyperbolc asked il he ever knew of
other than wet rain. The boy answered that
he never knew personally OF any other, but he
had read in d certain hook of a time when II
raiued fire aad birthstone, aud he guessed that
was not a wet rain.

e9~ However much we may pride our
selves upor our advanced state of civiliza
tion, 1t cannot we'll be denied that the en-.
Joyment OF our lives, property and civil rights
depends to a considerable extent upon the
position we hold in society. If we nave
wealth at our command, OF the power to in,
Huence the interests of our fellow men. our
lives, property and civil rights become
more sacred in the public estimation, and
the administration of justice guards us
with more tender solcitude.
If we are poor, friendless and unknown
we may be murdered in cold blood and
justice, hobbling along upon the crutches Of
self ease, interest, and public opinion,l will
oVertake the murderer, if he be too lazy to
leave the city. A few evenings ago poor
and comparatively friendless Irishman was
brutally murdered, and the murd erers are
still at large II, instead of the poor Irish
man, it had beon one of our wealthy and
influential citizens, how long would the
murderers escape2 No longer, we think, than
an excited populace and stimulated police
could reach them by every means at their
command.

devoted toward the erection aud furnishing OF
Oalisihenic Hall, to be devoted TO the health.
ful exercise Of the young ladies' of Cooper Sem,
inaryj this should be inducement enough for ali
the young gentlemen to attend. Then the mu,
sical programme will be under the direction Of
Miss orton--than whom a swteter singer does
not live; this should be au inducement to younp
and old who have heard her exquisite warb,
ling, 10 60 And then il there are those who
are not moved by the attractions we have emu
merated. we have for them to say, that Mrs

Gentlemen noted for their musical abilities have
consented to assist in making the entertainment,
agreeable.
Altogether. the Concert, ETC., tonight offer
very great inducements to all appreciative peo-
