politician. / propose telling the curious
reader one of his clectionecring dpdges,
and how nicely he got caught at it. In
Gle Joe was about to make speech to
the unterTifed of long Tom, and stopped
at Tom Browns for dinner lie knew
Tom was n little shaky--in fact. quite in
olincd TO be anti-Is----, and nclc Joe
determined to bring him over. As soon
as he enteicd the house he commenced his
usual tactics:
swell, God bless you Mi.. Brown.
how do you do, and how are all the little
ones g.
After kissing the dirty brood all round,
he asks for mothers pipe.
elf there is anything 'lo like, il is TO
smoke mothers pipe; it's got some
strength into il, and does fellow some
good. Ry-the-by, Mrs. Brown, they say
Tom ia going 10 vote apn me. hope he
won't. lie and ! have fit Indians togeth-
er up on Rogue River, and camped ont
in the mountains, and been good friends
and Dimercrats ever since we came to
Oregon.
Presently dinner is ready and they
have pork and beans, OF course. Mr..
Brown is sorry they have nothing better.
But says Uncle Joe, ''You could not have
anything better; bless your soul we don't
\ hny half
ton. Why, my friend, the President,
would give half his salary to get such
beans as these. Have you got a pint
you could spare / would SO like to take
them to mm for seed"
"Wc've got bushels of them," says Mrs
Brown.
"Well, now, how lucky. If you will,
do put up pint of them. / will put
them in my saddle-bags and take them on
to Mr.. Buchanan, and | would not he
surprised it it were the means Of Tom
getting one Of the best offices in the
state"
So the beans were put up and slowed
away in Uncle .Ioes saddle bags, and
Toms vote and influence were all made
sure.
In about a week Tom and his wife 20
up to Eugene. to visit TOMS sister. Mrs.
Smith. Uncle Joe had been there and
made flrst-rate impression. Mrs. Saith
tells Mrs. Brown,
! "What nice gentleman Squire l.
$50 kind and sociablc like; and then
2 hn ,,,,l.s - IL,
you believe it, he brought us pint of
beans all the way from Washington, the
very kind the President has on his ta-
! bic"
AT this Mrs. Brown begins to smell u
very big mice. Says she:
''Mrs. Smith, what kind OF beans are
those he brought you from Washington :"
''Oh, they are nice bcans-twice aa
large ms our white ones, with pinkish
eye"
81 thought so p says Mrs. Brown. -
''Niav | see those beans ?"
Certainly" says Mrs. Smith. 81 have
them in the bag with the garden seeds.
The beans were produced, still tied up
in piece of Jane Browns calico dres,
This produced an explosion. Brown and
smith Mt once became i, aud
worked hard to defeat him. Mcssr>
Brown and Smith were host in them

THE LATE ACCIDENT IN THE A'rs.-
Referring to the accident on the Matt 'rhorn
the Flaneur' Of the London Star writes
"The unfortunate gentlemen who perish
ed fell 1000 feet, ljust ten times the hcigh,
of 81. Paul's. Had It been sheer des-
cent, they would have fallen that dirtance
in sixteen seconds If they reached the
ground at the speed usually attributed TO
falling bodies, they would have fallen at
the rate of $40 miles an hour, or six
times the speed OF our swiftest express
trains, striking the earth with momen-
tum of 81, 600 pounds, or 40 tons No
wonder that the remains were in that aw-
ful condition described in the Abeille de
Cbamounix, or that 20 trace OF Lord
Francis Dop2lps' body has. been found"
We do not understand, however, that 1t
was sheer fall Of 200 feet.
