A JOURNALISTIC CATASTROPHE
The Glasgow Mail says:
"An incident occurred in connection
with the printing of our paper on Mon
day, which, we imagine, is unparalleled
in the annals of the press. A cat had
esconced herself in the large cylinder
of the four-feeder Hoe printing machine
employed to throw off the first side of
our impression. Before starting a ma
chine of this sort there is considerable
noise and hustle in putting on the
forms of type, ETC., and during the
first few revolutions are driven very
slowly. The cat however, remained
quite quiet during these preliminaries,
and escaped notice until the machine
was running at full speed, and had
thrown off some 800 copies of the PAPER.
She then apparently thought she had
enough. of it and attempted to spring
out of the cylinder, but, being giddy
after her 200 full-speed revolutions,
fell underneath it and was crushed to a
jelly by the revolving forms, her head
making a large dent against one of the
columns, and her flesh, blood and bones
being so evenly distributed over the
type that it was only after great deal
of washing that printing could be re.
sumed. So completely triturated was
the unfortunate animal, that, as one of
the hands expressed it, nothing was
left of her but the skim"
Weekly Calaveras chronicle., 1867-03-30

1t was cherries afternoon. A bit
ing, freezing wind drove the slowly sift-
ing snow before it like binding mist;
and the clouds hung so low as tc almost
touch the black roofs of the houses.
"How desolate it is" Mrs. Halpine
sighed, glancing out from her attic
window on the gloomy prospect below,
as she smoothed and folded the garment
she had just completed; "and the
colds bitter l don't like to send you
out, Louise, but there's not a lump of
coal, or a dust of flour, and Willie must
have that medicine. I'd go myself,
but"
"Oh, mother, no let me go-I don't
mind if it is cold. I'll hurry back )"
and the little girl sprang up from her
low seat beside the infants cradle and
began to fasten on her faded cloak and
hood.
"Well I suppose you must" the
mother continued, as she wrapped up
the delicately embroidered garment.
=" You know the place? Mr.. Rawdon's
on Tenth street that brownstone.
Yes, yes, mother 1 know"
"Well, dear, run fast, and keep
yourself warm; and say to Mrs. Rawdon
that I'd have finished the work before,
if Willie hadn't been so sick. Three
dollars she owes me. You can call at
the bakers and get loaf or two"
The child took the bundle, and van
ished out of sight down the dreary
flight of steps; while the mother turn
ed back to the cradle, where the sick
child lay. He held up his little hands
and moaned piteously. 60 Give me
some tea, mamma, I'm so dry"
Yes, darling, just as soon as Louise
comes"
Her eyes filled with tears as she rails
ed the little fellow to her bosom, clasp
ing him closely to keep him warm, for
there was no fire in the stove, and the
desolate attic room was very comfort
less. Yet there had been a day when
this same pale-faced, meek-eyed woman
sat in luxurious chamber, with every
comfort that her heart could wish with
in its reach; and doting husbands
strong arms of love to encircle and pro-
tect her. But her husband was dead,
lying unknown, on some distant battle
field, and her riches had made them
selves wings and flown away. Forlorn
