ne A rentleman in Californi

re- A gentleman in California
having made a lady present of 8
pair of pistols, after several trials Of
skill they concluded to go through
the forms of a duel. They took
their positions, fired at the word,
and, to the terror of the lady the
gentleman fell. She threw herself
frantically upon the corpse, embrac-
ing and kissing it with every emo
ton of endearment. Under such
magical influence the gentleman re-
vived, and rose unhurt from the
ground, and--and-they are to be
married.

Princes Metallic Paint.
ANINDESTRUCTIBLEC COATING
FOR
NN@Ms NM NM MNNN .

A TTENTION is respectfully called to
N the above mentioned Paint, and the
qualities upon which are based its claims to
superior advantages, established by the most
incontrovertible evidence as to fact, as al
ready fully demonstrated in this ana neigh
boring cities by many of the largest Gas
Companies, Iron Establishments, Iron Safe
Manufacturers, Ship Builders, Painters, Su-
gar Re6ners, Carriage Manufacturers, Build
ers, Steamboat and Railroad Companies,
Roofers, etc.
II consists of seventy two parts Oxide of
Iron, and twenty eight parts Cement Lime
Stone, in the one hundred pounds.
The Ore from which this Paint is manu-
featured is from vein discovered in Carbon
County, Pa which is overlaid with hydraulic
cement lime stone. through which the waters
of ages have percolated, and which in con-
nection with the Iron, gives to it the peculiar
property of withstanding heat and moisture,
which no other of the so-called metallic
paints possess.
lead. 1t is warranted perfectly water and
fire proof, and to withstand greater heat on
metals, without scaling, than any other paint
in use; hence it is unquestionably the
Best Coating euer applied on Steam

Where It is prooen that eoen Red Lead VIII
not stand.
1t is a perfect cover for ships bottoms, of
iron or wood; and all kinds of iron, tin,
brick or wood work, out-houses and canvass
coverings. 1t prevents and arrests the eorro-
sion of metals, and is not affected by the ac-
- r j.,
Ithardens under water, as has been fully
demonstrated by its application to gas hold
ers, by many of the largest Gas companies in
the United States; which companies, have
thoroughly tested its properties as herein
claimed, pronounce in its favor over any 9TH
er paints in the market, even though sold at
double its price.
AS coating for patterns of iron or wood,
when mixed with shellae, it is much superior
to beeswax, oil, or shellac alone, as has been
proven at the largest foundries in the country.
For patching boilers and making joints, 1t
is considered superior to red lead, or any 9th
er preparation.
For cleaning metals 1t takes the place of
erocus. rouge and emery, being better and
cheaper.
This Paint requires no more oil than dry
lead or zinc, and much less than the ordina
ry mineral paints. 1t is free from any waste,
and possesses spreading and covering pow

Ali orders or communications, by mail or
otherwise. will receive prompt attention.

Unfortunate-VerY.

A young medical student from MICHIGAN,
who had been attending lectures in New
York for some time, and who considered
himself exceedingly good looking and fasci-
mating, made deadly onset on the heart
and fortune Of blooming young lady in
the same family with him. After long
siege the lady surrendered. They were
married on Wednesday morning. The same
afternoon the young wife sent for, and ex-
hibited to the astonished husband, beau
tiful little daughter, aged three years and a
half
Good heavens then you was widow?"
exclaimed the student.
Yes, my dear and this is Amelia, my
youngest; tomorrow Augustus james
and Reuben will arrive from the country,
and then / shall have my children together
once more"
The unhappy student replied not word;
his feelings were too deep for utterance
The other darlings arrived Rueben was
six years, James nine, and Augustus a
saucy boy of twelve. They were delighted
to hear that they had new papa, because
they would now live at home, and have al
the playthings they wanted. The new
papa, as soon as be could speak, remarked
that Augustus and James did not resemble
Rueben and Amelia much.
Well, no." said the happy mother
"my first husband was quite another style
Of man from my second-complexion
temperament, the color Of the hair and eye:
all different.
This was too much. He had not only
married a widow, but was her third hus
band, and the astonished step father of -four
children.
But the fortune, thought he, that vii
make amends. He spoke of her fortune
These are my treasures" said she, II

children
The conceit was quite out of the Michi
gander, who, finding he had made com
plete goose of himself, retired to farm il
his own native state, where he would have
chance of making his boys useful ant
make them sweat for the deceit practicec
upon him by their mother.

Changing Text Books in Schools.

While one would hardly feel warranted
in saying that the multiplicity of school
books has become nuisance, it is neverthe-
less true that the great number of text
books which publishers and their agents
seek to, and do introduce into our schools.
has become crying evil to both parents and
children, and we are glad that the last leg
islature has come to the general relief with
a law upon the subject The necessity of
good text books need not be argued, as all
teachers and scholars know how great aux
illiaries they are to successful prosecution
of the business of acqu iring an education,
but that there is need of this continual
changing in these days Of good books, We
do not believe.
Col. McMynn, the excellent Superintend-
ent of public instruction, has issued a circu-
lar to school officers, calling their attention
to certain amendments of the school laws,
and making other valuable suggestions Els
pecial attention is directed to the following:
The amendment of section AZ, giving to
the majority of the district board the au-
thority to hire a teacher, if the clerk shall
neglect to hire one in time to open the
school when it should be commenced.
The amendment to section As, giving the
board authority to purchase record books,
and to pay for the same.
The amendment to section SO, providing
that when list of text books for district
has been selected by the board, it cannot
be changed for three years.
The amendment to section 81, giving the
County Superintendent power to direct dis
trict boards to alter and repair school houses,
and in concurrence with the town board OF
supervisors, to condemn school houses as
unfit for use.
Members of school boards who have not
received this circular, will have one sent
by addressing Colonel McMynn, at Madi
son.

The Democratic Party,

EDWARD BEEsoN, an old and experienced
newspaper publisher, has commenced the
publication Of Democratic paper in Fond
du Lac-the Journol-and gives the fol-
lowing reasons why he espouses the cause of
the Democratic party:
"We do this publish a Democratic
paper because the principles of Democracy
have always seemed to us the safest, best
and surest foundation upon which to erect
a political structure; the principles upon
which our government was founded, kept
in life, and reared into an enviable position
among the nations of the world.
Because Democracy serves to unite dis
ordered factions by its liberal principles OF
equality by recognizing the rights of the
poor as well as the rich; by its lenity and
brotherly feeling, and by charity, concession
and Cancellation to all mankind.
Because Democracy demands reverence
for those principles incucated by wise men
and patriots who had not been educated by
disgusting lessons of prejudice and revenge,
and which defes the attacks of secession,
radicalism and treason, and upon whom we
can only rely for safe conduct through the
present political connections.
Because we cannot but conceive danger
and decentralization in the headstrong, re-
vengeful disposition of radicalism, and that
it must bring sad disorder and contention in
the affairs of our government"

Tho EIGHT Hour system in Chicago.

On the LIST inst, great procession OF
working men favorable to the Eight Hour
System marched through the principal
streets of Chicago. From Chicago paper
we learn that the procession formed in five
divisions with General j. B. TURcHIN as
chief marshal.
In the fifth division the stone cutters
were represented by three trucks, contain
ing specimens of ornamental work, stone
cutting masonry, ETC., exhibiting men at
work at their several occupations.
Also, moulders at work, with flag, attach

The appearance of the procession as it
moved through the streets was truly i'm

every available point of observation, block
aiding the sidewalks, covering the steps OF
every building along the line of march and
pcering out of the windows of business
blocks and dwellings.
An almost countless number of flags BAN
ners, devices, notices, ETC., were carried In
the procession. The following are some OF
the inscriptions upon the flags and banners:
