How Bill Got Shot.

10 BUY shotI asked young urchin Of
brother somewhat his senior who was max
ing purchase Of that article.
You just never mind me. I'll thank
you to attend to your business, Mister Bob;
don't care what dad allows +; I'll buy what
please.
Little boy slightly agitated. "I'm going
to tell dad," he said, rushing out Of the
room where the old man was quietly reading
the morning paper.
dad, dad, Bills went and got shot.
Good Heaven p cried the old man.
dropping the paper in CONSERVATION, and
boiling for the door, "Where is he?''
Down to Thompson's store" responds
Bob.
In his excitement the old man forgot to
remove his reading specs, and in going down
the steps misjudged tho distance to tho
pavement, stepped off too soon and came
sprawling on all fours.
He gathered himself up, and started for
the store. The pavement appeared to be
about the level Of his knees, consequently,
in his violent efforts to keep it under him,
he cut very ridiculous figure, and drcw
from the astonished by-standc-s such q roar
as was never bestowed upon a single indi-
vidual since the world began.
At length his tedious run was brought to
close by arriving at the store where Bill
was stretched out taking it easy. The old
man supposing him badly hurt, rushed
frantically up to him, cxclaiming-
20, William William! where are you
woundcd?"
whats the matter, dadl Are you
crazy?" asked Bill, raising on his elbow,
and casting look of astonishmcnt at the
old man.
"Why, Robert said you'd got shot!"
$50 l did-got half a pound Of tho best
buck shot in the store.
The old man left amid noise enough to
drown thunder-clap. As might be sup
posed, Bob got the Aoggins and Bill didn't
JOHN VAN BUREN.-Mr. Van Buren was
trying cause between tho Croton Aque-
duct Board and the St. Nicholas Hotel. 1t
appeared that the water did not rise of it.
self to the upper stories Of the hotel, but
was carried up by means of forcing pumps.
The board demanded extra payment for the
additional water used by these means; and
the only question really at issue was, as to
the third floor, whether it was supplied by
the means Of the forcing pumps or by the
natural rise Of the water. The evidence ON
the point being somewhat conflicting, tho
judge (Rooscvelt) loosely suggested that
the counsel on both sides should visit the
hotel, and ascertain the true state Of the
case ly ocular inspection.
Mr. Van Buren-''May it please the
Court, I greatly fear that if my learned
brother and myself should visit the st.
Nicholas Hotel in company, neither Of US
would find his way above the ground floor"
We do not know whether the Judge was
aware that the bar is situated on this ground
floor.
A certain lady Of Albany was said to
have imbibed feeling Of dislike towards
Mr.. Van Buren; and an acquaintance Of
that gentleman rallied him about it and
claimed he should tell the cause. With all
tho seeming truthfulness Of manner possible
and in his passible and in his passive,
pleasant, off-hand way he, no doubt invent
cd the following:
"It dates back to my childhood, when I
refused her a ride down hill on my sled"

The Light.Fingcred Gentry g
Paris.

The ambition of Gaul is boundless.- -
Whatever another can do he can do, and,
If possible, do it better. He is a renowned
adoptcr Of and improver uyon the inventive
genius of other nations. This ambition
seems even to extend to such arts as picking
pockets. lfcredit may be given to an ac-
count in French review, this felonious art
has been carried by the Partisan thieves to
degree of perfections leaves the rascality
of the "rest of mankind far behind.
The operation is thus described as per-
formed in French omnibus:
''Ihe thief of course well dressed, enters
the omnibus armed with very small morsel
of lead attached to very fine thread Of black
silk. The extremity of this thread he holds
between his iore6nger and thumb, and as
soon as his nearest ncighbor takes out hisor
her portmonniae for the purpose Of paying
the fare-which is paid in Paris on entering
the omnibus-the thief, his eyes Of course
apparently fixed in contemplation Of some
far off object, dexterously launches the bit
of lead into the portmonnaie just as the
owner is closing it, The purse is then re.
turned to the pocket of the unconscious own
cr, who never sees the thread, by which he
is now in the power of the thief. As soon
as an opportunity occurs, or is provided by
the thief himself, who tumbles apparently
clumsily against his neighbor at the first
stoppage of the omnibus, the purse is gently
drawn from the owners pocket, and trans
ferrcd to that Of the rogue, who, as soon as
possible leaves the conveyance, with po-
lite salutation to his victim and the rest
of the travellers"
Here is juggling that throws the dextcrity
Of Signor Blitz & Co, into the shade. A
fellow who could successfully perform feat
of such delicacy and skill would almost
deserve the reward Of genius. And if he
was caught he would be very likely to get
reward not whole unlike that which genius
too often receives at the hands Of an unap-
prcciative community.
