Harper's Weekly says that Mr..
Stephen B. Guion has presented to
the Central Park Commissioners a

The city authorities of Mobile have
rejected the petition of Miss Augusta
Evans, for permission to erect mon
ument TO the Confederate dead in
Beinyille Square. The reason assign
ed by the committee is that monu-
ment would make visitors to the park
feel sorry.

JACK SPRAT AND HIS WIFE.-Mr.
Miller was at the Police Court yester-
day, charged with the common offence
of beating his wife. She, with great
volubility, related the numerous IN
stances of brutal treatment, and told
with much feeling how, only the day
before. he had taken leg of mutton,
all cooked, all luxuriating in gravy,
and had beaten her over the head
Herewith, to the destruction of water
fall, dress, and leg; and, said she,
smacking her lips, it was most ele-
CANT little leg of mutton-fat, oh, so
nice.
Mr.. Miller then obtained the floor
and delivered himself after somewhat
the following fashion: :" Now, Squire,
I know its rather rough for a fellow
to be a-beating of his wife. Public
sentiments always agin him. I'm
agin it myself ON principle, | am But
it ain no use talking, Squire, there's
some things as can't be stood no how,
and fat meat and ash is two of EN-.
Now when [ courted this woman,
and | done it for a long time, steady
never training with any other girls
she had a right good chance of find
ing my likes; and by the way she runs
counter to EN-, Judge she did learn
EN- Andif she thought she couldn't
get on easy in my ways she ought not
to have married me, [ say. If she
doesn't honor my opinion she doesn't
honor me.
swell, Squire, I'm a hardworking
man that's got no time to buy victuals
and truck generally, so gives her the
money and tells her to buy the grub
only says [ at first, Lucy, don't go to
getting any fat meat, for [ can't stand
it anyhow. | amt that kind" She
got sort of grumpy, and said she
guessed she didn't need any telling
Since then, Squire, she's bought
nothing but the latest kind of fat
meat, with a strong preference for the
sleeps tail. Now, it's nearly ruined
me-derned if it amt. I've not eat a
square meal at home since | married
her; and then she goes and works up
this stuff into hash, what boarding
house prisoners are fed on
So when she got that meat yester-
day, just clean grease, | thought it
was rather rough, and [ hit her. /
know | did. It's no use trying, [ can
stand it.

The Louisville Courier is as earnest
in its rebel doctrines as any Southern
paper was during the war. The glo
rifcation of everybody who ever
fought in the rebel army seems to be
its present principal mission. 1t late
ly contained the following respecting
a returned rebel officer Familiarity
known as g Burb Blackburn ~:
At a recent large wedding in
Nashville, Burb was one of the
grooms, and it so happened that his
partner on that occasion was a
'sprightly and beautiful young lady of
the Union persuasion. After eleven
attempts on her part to subjugate
Burb and make him take the several
oaths, &C., Burb acknowledged as fol-
lows:
Burb-' Well, Miss -, [ had a
heap of fun in the rebel army, and am
sorry for oaly one ching | did while
fighting you Yanks.'

Blackburn? Do tell US
