RETALIATION years sipce, in the coun-
ty of Ponobscott, there lived a man by the name
of H, whose greatest pleasure was in tor
menting others his own family was generally
the butt of his sport.
One cold, clustering night he retired to bed
at an early hour, his wife being absent Some
time after she returned and finding the door
closed, demanded admittance.
who are you ?" cried II.
"You know very well who am let me in,
it'sv very cold"
"Begone, you strolling vagabond, want no.
thing of you here"
"But | must come in"
What's your name ~
You know my name it's Mrs. H.
/" Begone Mrs. H. is a likely woman, and
never keeps such hours as this"
If you do not let me in will drown myself
in the we'll"
Do ifyou please he replied.
She took up big log, plunged it into the
well. and returned to the side of the door.
Mr.. H., hearing the noise, rushed from the
house to save, he supposed his drowning wife.
She at the same time slipped into the house
and closed the door after her H., almost ma
ked, in turn demanded admittance.
Who are you," she demanded.
d" You know who | am; let me in or I shall
freeze"
"Begone, you thievish rogue, don't want
you here"
But must come in
/" What is your name ?"
q" You know my name it is Fl"
I" Mr.. II. is very likely man he don't keep
late hours"
Suffice it to say, she, after keeping him in the
cold until she was satisfied, opened the door
and let him in.

THE LovE-TEsr.-Single ladies, said Captain
Morgan, often cross the water under the especial
protection of the captain of the ship and, if n
love affair occurs among the passengers, the
captain is usually the confdante of one or both
parties. A very fascinating young lady was
placed under my care, and three young gentle
men all desperately in love with her. They
were all equally agreeable, and the young lady
was puzzled which to encourage. She asked
my advice. Come on deck" said I, {" the first
day when it is perfectly calm-the gentlemen of
course will all be near you. will have boat
quietly lowered down; then do you jump over
board, and see which of the gentlemen will be
the first to jump after you-l will take care of
you" calm day soon came, the captain
suggestion was soon followed, and two of the
gentlemen jumped after the lady at the same
moment. But between these the lady could not
decide, so exactly had been their DEVOTION
She again consulted me. g. Take the man that
didn't jump; he's the most sensible fellow, and
will make the best husband"

In our town there are any number of aspi-
rants for the offices of Postmaster and Superin-
tendent of Indian Affairs for the Northern Dis

Weeks Weeks assured him, upon his honor,
that his appointment should be all right when
he-Weeks saw Uncle Abe This aspirant
also thinks that his competitors have not the
least show for an appointment, because they
don't spend their money freely with Weeks 4

New EYTERPRIsE.-0u old friend and neigh
Dor, Calvin B. Mcdonald, with whom many OF
our readers are acquainted, informs us that he
has established a regular News Agency at San
Francisco, for the purpose of making up a gen.
eral summary of news for the accommodation OF
the interior press His charges are very mode
rate, to say nothing of the advantages of having
a regular correspondent at the Bay. We do
not know of a man that is more peculiarly fitted
for this position than Mcdonald. We hope the
press generally will assist him in his new enter
prise. Put us down for one chance Mac.

A PETTY THIEF.-On Sunday last Sheriff
Follansbee arrested JOAN SiIk Portuguese,
for having stolen number OF articles from sew
eral of our shop-keepers. At the time he was
arrested he had his overshirt filled with apples,
eggs, pipes, tobacco cigaritas, &C., all of which
he had stolen that day After Silva had been
committed to Jail, the Sheriff went to his cabin,
on Middle Greek, and there found any quantity
of plunder. To give the names of the different
articles stolen would be tedious matter; suf-
fee it to say that he bad articles enough to set
up a small dry goods and hardware store. All
the articles brought in and deposited in
the Sheriif-s office, where most of the property
was recognized by our merchants.
How comes it that Silva was let off SO easily
by paying fine of $50 and costs-when the
proof of his rascality was so strong? Why did
not those persons who recognized their property
prosecute him? We much fear that if these
cases are dealt with SO lightly, our SheIifs and
Constables will think it hardly worth their while
to make arrests.
