A GooD STORY is told of the Washinptons
Ind, Telegraph man, who on his way to Gin
clnnatl became somewhat elevated by sun
dry ssdrinks," but as good luck would have Il.
found a boat at the wharf, and was quickly on
his way. Soon after leaving the wharf man
came around for his fare. Horrall handed out
five dollar bill, and received four dollars and
ninety-fve cents in change. He rammed il
into his pocket-book with great eagerness,
supposing the clerk had made mistake.
That done he leaned over in his chair and fell
asleep. A little while and he was plucked a.
wake by the same man, who again demanded
fare. "Dscovered the mistake" thought he.
holding out a handful of change. The man
as before, took only five cents, and Horrall a.
gain went into doze. Ere he had got fairly
to dreaming of home and friends far away, a.
round came the collector again, and thus it
went for long time. At last Horral thought
it very inconvenient ard concluded to vote
tho conductor nuisance, and give him a bit
OF advice besides; so, said he, els (hic) this
d-a-n-g-e-r (hic) Gus bo-bo-at ?'' stBy no
means," said the man. Bran new.'' ssThen
(hic) why do (hic) don't you collect all the IA
(hic) fare at once not--not bother fel (hic)
heller for it every mile as it (hic) comes due ?''
ssReally,'' said the man, .swhere do you think
you are going 20 ssCincin(hic) cinnati,'' said
Horrall. ssCincinnati % said the polite con-
ductor sswhy you must be sadly out of your
reckoning. This is the ferry boat, and this
afternoon you have been riding to and fro be-
tween New Albany and Portland.'' That
night Horrall staid in Louisville.

The FLOYD GUN.-The experiments at Old
Point with this monster piece of ordnance
have been most satisfactory. 1t is by far the
largest ever cast in this or any country. 1t
will cripple, hopelessly, at single shot, any
hostile ship, no matter how large or strongly
built, that may venture within mile of its e.
normous muzzlc. 1t weighs, independently
of the carriage, 49,O99 pounds and its cost
was something over $4,000. The bore is
sixteen inches in diameter, and fifteen feet
in depth, the solid shot weighing four hun
drod and fifty pounds.

ORA. Bastian, who recently visited San Sal
vador, the capital of Congo, states that the
princesses Of the royal family enjoy remarka-
Bile, privileges. They make their selections
of husbands from the realm, and the happy
men have to prepare themselves for their
honors BY several months Of solitude. To in
sure conJugal fidelity-not on the part OF the
wife, who enjoys the greatest freedom-but
on the part of the husband, wherever he leaves
the house tantams are beaten before him, and
at the sound Of them all women must hasten
out of the way.

RACING IN SAN FRANCIsco.-Th following
from the Alta Californian would seem to indi-
cate that San Francisco is not improving very
rapidly in morality. The Roman. chariot race
over the Pioneer Course was curious attrac-
tion, and drew crowds. The drivers were
Misses Hortense Stevenson and Annette Ba-
ker, who drove three heats around the course
at full gallop. They were dressed in Roman
tunics, with not a superfuity of draperry,
while the trappings of the horses double
teams) were in imitation OF ancient regalia,
such as is seen in the antique paintings. The
first heat was made in minutes 10 seconds !;
the second in minutes % seconds the third
in minutes 81 seconds-the two competitors
coming in very nearly side by side, but Miss
Stevenson taking the prize, which was a dia-
mond cross from fuckers jewelry store. The
crowd cheered tremendously, bets ran high,
and there was an exciting time generally.
The driving was remarkable for its daring and
rapidity.

THE SUFFERERS IN SYRIA.

II Is now almost certain that the extent of suf-
fering in Syria is appalling. Nor have the full
dimensions of the misery of the poor Chris
tlan fugitives been even yet ascertained. The
n. I. Journal OF Commerce, by advices from
Syria, learns the following facts:-
ssEvery week, now that the strong arm of
Fuad Pacha is restoring some degree of order
IN the plain country, if not entirely in the
Lebanon districts, new masses of human
wrefchedness are coming to light. Only a
few days preceding the 23d of September,
some three thousand miserable creatures were
heard Of by the eAnglo-American Relief Com
mittee at Beirut, as ready to perish at or
near place called the s.Cedars of Lebanon
and 10000 piasters Cor 81 ,200) were sent up
TO save them from death by famine and desti-
tuition. About the same time 5000 wretched
beings had reached Sidon, from the region of
Hasbeya, whomust be cared for. And finally.
near 900 had come from another quarter. to
beirut-thus increasing the number of those
who must be fed by the committee at Beirut,
(and many of them clothed too0 from IA 900
up to more than q, 900. Nor does this include
all the poor creatures who must be fed through
the winter. As the autumn wears away and
the pinching cold commences on Lebanon.
hundreds and thousands who have been seek
ing miserable sustenance from herbs on its
sides and in its ravineS, will be compelled to
come down to Beirut and Sidon, and they
must be fed and clothed or die 20
In addition to the measures already in pro-
gress in the United States to send prompt re-
lief, it has been suggested that on the coming
thanksgiving day (Which will be observed
probably on the 29th of November in nearly
every State of the Union) collections in aid
OF the sufferers be taken up in churches of all
denominations. The Journal remarks that the
Presbyterian Synods of New York and New
Jersey have already adopted this suggestion,
and adds 1T is probable that other Synods
have done or will do the same. What can be
more appropriate than that liberal contribu-
tion should be made on that joyous occasion
by the churches of a country so wonderfully
blessed the past year with abundant harvests
and health throughout all its extent, for the
reHef of these sufferers who must now be
counted by tens OF thousands!
