PEPPERED THE SHERIFF.-A m

PEPPERED THE SHERIFF.-A man
in Columbus, Ga, who has for
some time been under heavy bonds,
went to the Sheriff after dark,
stating that his mother was un-
willing longer to have her name
remain on his bond. The sheriff
went with him to her residence,
where the writings were cancelled.
He was accompanying him to q
place of confinement, not dream
ing of an escape being attempted,
and had gone two squares, when
suddenly the prisoner threw q
handful of cayenne pepper, lightly
mixed with salt and powder, into
his eyes and ran. The mixture
was enough to kill a fellow. The
pain was 80 intense that the Off
Ger had no time to draw his pistol,
or do anything, save rub his op-
tics, which operation was contin-
ued some hours without much re-
lief. The prisoner has not been
seen since.

The Aberdeen Examiner

The Aberdeen Examiner is re-
sponsible for the following:
Prof. Leja is distinguished op.
tician of New Orleans, and visited
Corinth a few weeks since, stop
ping at the famous Scruggs House,
of course. One day, while sitting
at the table, conversing with Col.
johnson, the affable clerk of that
popular resort, the conversation
turned upon the yellow fever, with
the various phases of which the
Professor was quite familiar; and,
among other things, the course of
Gen. Sheridan, in neglecting while
controlling the affairs of the Gulf
Department, to take the usual
precautions to ward off, or, at
least, prepare the city for the visit
of Bronze John, was severely con-
demned. In this connection, Col,
johnson remarked:
"You must confess, Professor,
that Notwithstanding his many
faults, Gen. Butler exhibited great
administrative ability, in the cen
ception and prosecution of meas
ures to save New Orleans from the
dreaded pestilence, while in COM
mand there"
Up jumped the optician, his
face pale with i'll suppressed
wrath, his eyes darting fire;
"By gar, vat you take me vor ?
You no believe in a God ? You
no believe zere is merci? Yellow
fever and Genera | Butler at
the same time !! !"
And the choloric Creole walked
off almost foaming at the mouth,
with fists clinched, muttering be-
tween his teeth, "Y-low fever,
he cannot believe zere is God who
has merci."

JoKEONA CoNsTABLE.-A" "cute"
State constable, meeting a tin ped

to sell.
"No," was the reply.
The constable hastened to pro-
cure warrant, and after a long
days search, found the offending
person and brought him before a
magistrate, when he was asked,
Guilty, or not guilty?"
"Not guilty." he quietly an
swered.
"Don't you peddlegoods around
here ?" said the judge.
ayes, sirp'
"Well, then, sir, have you Ii
cense to do so?"
"Oh, yes!"
"Why, did. you not tell this gen.
tleman that you had no license?'
"No, sir" said the peddler.
Eyes, you did," shouted the
tipstaff.

the man.

officer. =

A Western paper notices the
prevalence of a new disease called
pipsey nipsey, and thinks it pecu
liar to that section. We do moi
know that the exact disease has
made its appearance here, but the
remedy is in general use. The
disease is described as follows: A
sudden depression of the collapsis
dindix, eaving of the spinality OF
the backbonibus, and feeling of
siimness in the immediate vicinity
of the diaphragm, may be regarded
as symptoms that the complaint is
coming on. The following RENE
dies will afford relief: Spiritus VIM
Otard z. i; Sugarum whitum, q. s.
icebus coolus v. r; shakistee violen.
ter; adus prigus mintus duss: and
suck ite cum strawum.

The CoTToN TAX.-Senator
Wilson writes that the cotton tax
must be repealed. 1t is feared
that even the negroes will vote
against the Jacobins next year
if this is not done, as they now
understand the tax reduces their

to heed this request from the ne
groes, though 1T declined to hear
a word from white men.

During the late canvass, a young
man whose face nature had form,
ed little on the pick-ax style,
was one day;.surrounded by a
number of hearers, attentively lis
tening to his efforts at electioneer-
ing, amongst whom was a plain old
farmer, who was afflicted with
stammering, who thus accosted the
said gentleman:
'T-telf me, my friend, d-did-

Yes, the people are all we'll

Sea Sickness and Pro-
family,
from the Boston Bulletin. I

L rom Tue Dc5tO1 Dutletln.
Sea sickness is a sad levcler, to
which the strongest minds sue
cumb, leaving nothing but the de-
sire to touch terra frnla again. An
eminent dramatic artist, who has
recently made a tour in California,
returned East by steamer. Scarce
ly had the ship got out Of sight
of land before the thespian was
laid by the heels with NAL az mer:.
In the depths of his dispair he
called for the captain, and when
that worthy arrived. the tragedian
gazed at him for few moments,
and then asked:
"Ar-r-e-you the captain?'
81 have that honor" said the
son of Neptune.
"Ver-r-y well, sir. I want you
to run this blasted ship ashore.
I'll pay for her hull, engines and
cargo"
The Captain smiled, and told his
unhappy passenger it was impossi-
bic.
"Ver-r-y well, sir-r-r. Tie her
to rock, then, and stop this BIAS
ted rolling"
Being assured that this was I'M
possible, the wretched actor retired
to his state-room, and lying there
in mortal agony, cursed the sea and
all that appertained to it, with
oaths both loud and deep.
Now it so happened that the
Rev. Mr.. Chadband, who had col
lected large amount of money in
California to purchase fine tooth
combs and tracts for the Digger
Indians, was on his way East to
invest his funds, and occupied the
state-room next to the actors.
Horrifed at the roars of the sick
lion, he walked into his state-room
just as ne let OFT another volley Of
anathemas which extorted a deep
groan from Chadband. "Hallo,"
said the player, care you sick z"
"Sick at heart, brother" was
the response, "to hear you use
such language"
cit is a bad habit" said the
wretched artist, "but d-n it, sir,
here have been turned inside out
for three days, throwing up every
thing possible, and, if I'm sick any
longer, curse me if / don't think
| shall throw UP my engagement in
New York. Blast the sea p
''Don't, my dear sir, curse so.
Remember One who was patient
under much greater suffering than.
yours"
The tragedian rose to his full
height and, running his fingers
through his hair as he chewed
bis voice for q moment, replied:
81 do remember Him, sir-r-r,
and remember when He was caught
at sea, He got out and walked, and
| wish could follow His example
in that respect, at least"
Mr.. Chadband concluded that
any more missionary effort in that
direction would not be very profit
able.

How to take a Whipping.

The Western Morning Sun, al
English journal, has the follow
ing fresh version of an old story
Mr.. Dickens in one of his book
on American journalists, repre-
sents them as turning every Incl
dent into a point with a sensation
header, or that even when the ed
itor got thrashed for personalities
he at once brought out special
edition with the flaming an.
nouncement: "The Editor Cow
hided Again 1t is not, l think,
generally known that Mr.. Dick
ems was referring to an actual
case, which is tolerably notorious
in America, and is told with great
glee by the person most deeply In
terested. That person is no other
than the notorious James Gordon
Bennett, of the New York Herald,
and thus he tells his story to his
friends. The Herald had for some
time violently attacked o certain
actress. One day the lady's hus-
band, himself an actor, came to the
Herald office, walked into Mr.. Ben
nett's room, and said, care you Mr..
Bennett?" "I am" was the reply:
"take a seat" ''No sir, 1 will not
take a seat; you have insulted my
wife" "Whois your wife?" Name
mentioned. "Neverheard of her.
"But your dramatic critic has in
suited her." "This is his affair"
"But l hold you responsible
and thereupon the angry husband
took the proprietor of the Herald
from his chair and flung him on
the floor, and kicked him in the
rear, rolled him over, kicked again,
clutched hold of his throat, and
left the office. What did the vic
tim do? He called upon one of
his employees; wrote out an ac-
count of the affair, caused sensa-
tion cards to be struck off-Fourth

and sapn all New York was buy
ing the Herald. But, said Ben |
nett, | added little garnish which |
was not strictly true. Isaid, "We |
would have pardoned this unman-
nerly, cowardly assault upon an
unarmed man, but for one circum-
stance: This despicable wretch, |
not content with ferocious vio-
lenCe, had the unspeakable mean
ness to take up quarter-dollar
piece, which was lying upon the
table and pocket it." The next |
day when the actor appeared up
on the stage, he was greeted with
cries of who stole Bennett's quar-
teri and whenever he appeared
the same ory greeted him, until he
and his wife were driven off the
stage and ruined. This, adds
bennett, was my revenge.

"When y9H see a man spending
two or three dollars a week fool

that he'll live long enough to knoW
