NIGHT EoEHE III a BOARDING
#tIIhe- HOUSE.

A lady, whose husband is in Califor-
MIA, Calcutta or Chicago, suddenly awak-
ened from her sleep the other morning,
about two o'clock, and springing from
her bed, dashed out Of her room en- DIS
AobiNe, screaming at the top of her voice,
"Murderl Help! Murder Man in my
room" &C., &c. Under the circumstan-
ces this was quite natural, inasmuch as
more than one mistake of this kind had
happened in the house recently. Now,
it appeared that 10 less than three hus-
bands were absent when they should have
been there, and consequently there was
more or less wonder, mixed up with a
specie Of apprehension on the part Of
three wives, each wondering whether it
was her husband who had thus forgotten
himself or the room. szr
ooh, come up quickly" shouted the
terrified female, holding on to the outside
door knob. "I've got him in"
"If it's my Josey," said another dis
consolate, "I'll learn him better. Con-
found these night suppers, now he's been
at one of them, and has mistaken the
room, and there I've been alone all night" F."
"Has he got any whiskers ?" anxiously
asked the wife 1pon reaching the landing
on the upper floor.

the wife at the door.

grasping him by the hair.
The tableau was strikingly interesting
and graphic.
The resolute boarder almost fell from

TINE ENoUGH-DoN'T EAT SO FAST,
Like all Americans, we are inclined to
eat too fast at all times, whether we have
any thing to do or not But we have
learned to eat slowly at railroad stations,
whatever We may do at home or in the
restaurant. IF any one will take the
trouble to compare the capacity of the
human stomach with the amount of food
which may be inserted therein through
the aperture of the size of.the aesophagus
IN ten minutes, continuous labor, he will
find balance on the side of the knife
and fork-that Is, on the outside Talk
ing consumes much more time in the or
dlnary meal than the mere processes of
cutting the food, mastication and swallow
ing. When person has nothing to do
bat eat he can dispose of more than en-.
ough, and deliberately, too, in less than
ten minutes. Few persons realize this,
and it was only after several years of
travelling experience that we did so our
selves. Many time we have rushed of
the cars, dove into the refreshment room
in fever of anxiety, with only fifteen
minutes to eat dinner, while we had
always taken fully an hour at home. In
common with the rest of the passengers,
we would call four or five walters at once,
give our orders with haste that forbafs
choice, and move about nerviously on our
chair, with one eye on the clock, until
the food was before us; then came the tug
of war. Like those of all our companions,
our knife and fork would play to and
from onr mouths with a rapidity that
made thought of proper mastication
ridiculous It was like moving away
hay-one set of teeth could not keep up
with two hands and knife. They man

ach; but the most absurd part of all

We were through, waiting for the cars to

with a prospect of indigestion before us,
and Ave minutes to spare.-Ne'o York.

SHERMAN's DUPLICATED PLANS
Sherman, on his march to Atlanta, con-
stantly astonished the rebels with the ia
cility with which he restored the railroad
bridges they destroyed at his approach.
They would annihilate bridge just be-
fore he arrived, and the next morning
there it was again, just as it had been be-
fore they touched 1t.
At last light dawned upon them.
The original plans for the bridges had all
been furnished from Cleveland, Ohio.
and before Sherman started he took those
plans, had each bridge duplicated in all
its timbers and iron works, took the pieces
in a ''shook" state on his trains, and SO,
when he found bridge gone, he had
nothing to do but to get its mate out OF
the freight cars, bolt it together, and put
it up. This thing worried the rebels a
good deal when they found it out -a

The GREAT RACE HORSE DEXTER. -

THE GREAT RACE HORSE DEXTER. -
A dispatch of the 18th to the Chicago
Tribune, from Buffalo, gives the follow
ing account Of the last performance of the
unrivaed trotter Dexter and his sale to
Robert Bonner, of the New York Ledger,
who has now about the finest lot of hor-
ses and the most money invested in horse
flesh of any man in the country who does
not keep his horses for profit asal1aa
The great match of Dexter, for purse
of 1000, against his best recorded time
in harness, viz: 2.l9, came off amid the
greatest excitement ever known upon tho
course. Dexter trotted against Ethan
Aliens running mate. The first t1ial
afforded beautiful exhibition of clean
trotting, without skip or break The
quarter was made in "a, the half in LILO,
and the mile in 2:20.
Upon the second trial it soon becati,e
quickly evident that the incompatible
horse was making prodig1ous effort, snd
his fight around the course was watched
with intense interest. The quarter was
made in 334, the half turn in LOT, and
the mile completed in 2:I74, SURPRISING
even the extraordinary time which he
made in the saddle last year The an
nouncement of the result was greeted with
tremendous and repeated cheers. aam
Shortly after, Mayor Wells made ths
unexpected announcement from the
