Old Mary Jackson is never sober ex-
cept through some unavoidable and un-
foreseen accident. She is such regu-
lar guest of the calaboose that her plate
and name has lately been nailed on the
door of her cell. She no sooner gets
discharged from one " drunk and
down" than she strikes petroleum at
the nearest grocery and goes in again
under a steady pull. Yesterday Mary
put her mug to the mouth of a stone
jug of calamity water, and kept it there
until she refrigerated to a state of SUI
perb indifference as to when and how
she was going to put her next best foot
forward. Mary was evidently looking
with anxious sOlicitude for the bridge
Of her nose which she appeared to have
lost, when the policeman hooked on
to her arm. This made Mary very in
dignant, and she took seat suddenly
on the back other head, while her feet
flew around like pair of threshing
fails. With the aid of six policemen,
Mary was carried to the station house,
followed by long procession OF
darkeys, boys and barking dogs. This
morning the policeman thus POLITICALLY
described the condition in which he
found Mary:
mo useless coffin enclosed her breast,
| Nor in sheet in shroud we wound her;
But she lay like dead duck taking her rest
| With her skirticoats scattered around her.
The court made out bill of So, in
Guiding the scattered crinoline, and
Mary went up to work it out.
