An EXPENSIVE JoKE.--We learn
from Mr.. Rosewater, Manager of
of the Western Union Telegraph
office at Omaha. tho following ex-
pensive joke:
=. When the news of the successful
laying of the Atlantic cable reached
Denver, one of the operators at that
place wrote and sent message to
the Emperor of France, signing it
John GlIpin, former Governor OF
Colorado. The message was re-
ceived at Omaha, and the operator
supposing it to be all right repeated
it to New York, from thence over
the cable: aud requesting the New
York operator to give him the
"check," as he did not know tho
tariffrates. Yesterday they received
the "check" which amounts to only
1857 so in gold. Notice was sent
to the operator at Denver, when he
cody replied that he twas only jok.
ing, and supposed the message would
not go beyond Julesburg." The Wes-
tern Union is responsible for tho joke
and they will be obliged to make the
Denver man g. foot the bill. ."-Er.

A BAD DArKEY.-An exchange
says:
We never heard Fred Douglass
speak but once. He is pretty sharp
darkey, we'll formed, rather graceful
and entirely ready. On the occasion
to which we allude, in Philadelphia,
his harranguc was violent, made up
chiefly of descriptions of the outrages
practiced upon slaves by their mas.
ters, which wrought a very decided
effect upon the crowd. Perceiving
this, Fred took his advantage at the
flood, aud went higher into the
realms of eloquence.
"My friends" said he, " do not
speak from hearsay. l stand before
you a living-1 was going to say Q
blceding-witness to the truth of all
I relate. If you bcheld the strips
and scars upon my back"
Just here an Irishman vociferated :
"Hould on Freddy, darling-is it
truth you are telling us!" The dar-
key orator lifted his finger tragically
towards heaven in the affirmative.
Och, murder did they lascerate
vou!" Fred answered they did.
"Did they thumbscrcw you: Fred
answered they did. Did they buck

SUICIDE "A few day ago we published an
account of young man named Lewis Rhine
hardt, employed ia Sir. Herman's clothing
store, in Washington, attempting to commit
suicide by shooting, because he had been accus-
ed of stealing some clothing which was found
in his yalise The Washington Star says, it
was thought by some that the job had been
put up" and that another clerk in the store
naDcd Jacob Burwanger was the guilty party,
and on Saturday a fellow clerk swore out a war
rant before Justice Boswell charging Burwan-
ger with the larceny Of the goods found in
Rhinehardt's trunk, which was placed in the
hands of officer Walliogsford. Burwanger was
made aware of the tact, ard Saturday afternoon
he left the store, but was followed in the direc
ton of the steamboat wharf, where he was lost
sight Of. Not returning at night, inquiry was
made for him, but without success. Yesterday
morning his body was seen floating near the
end of one of the wharves. The deceased had
on his person silver watch (which had stopped
at 20 minutes past one clock) and some small
change. He has brother and some other rel
atiyes in Georgetown, but he came from Baltis
more He was about Is years Of age. "
