There once lived on the banks of the Beaver
river man by the name of Smith who took it
into his head, to raise ducks. Unfortunately
for him ducks would go into the river and swim
off. He got tired of losing his ducks; so one
morning he and his son Jake got boat and
went out on the river to capture all of them
which they did except one old drake who baf-
fed all attempts to catch him. The old man
was not noted for his patience, so he told Jake
to take one of the paddles and when the boat
got near enough to kill the drake; and he con-
tinued, NOW, Jake be sure and strike the fatal
blow" When the boat got within reach of the
drake. Jake brought the paddle down with all
his might, and the old man exclaimed. ooh,
Jakey, did you strike the fatal blow?" eyes,

WHAT THEY EAT, IN CHICAGO.

The Chicago board of health is after the
dealers in meat, in that city. 1t is shown
that the best cattle, sheep and hogs are not
purchased by the Chicago butchers, but are
sold for the New York and other eastern
markets-while the old bulls, played-out
stays, widowed cows, diseased cattle, feverish
hogs, swollen sheep, immature calves, etc. are
eaten in Chicago.
''E. A. Cornwell, police superintendent of the
Union stock yards, by request, made statement
relative to the nitary condition of the stock
yards, and the method of cattle traffic transacted
in the yards. He said that all the No l cattle
were sent to eastern markets, and that nothing
bat fsealawag cattle were sold here AT the yards,
among Dealers all thin kinds of cattle were termed
Kinzie street stock, from the fact that dealers in
that street buy up all the crippled hogs sick beeves
and sheep in the market for sale. He said that
only last Wednesday i32 crippled, feverish hogs
and beeves were sold to 'kinzie street dealers.
One of the beeves had large lump tumor on
the side, another had an abseess on the jaw, and
another had its throat cut in order that it should
die after the manner of butchered cattle, and not
in natural manner. Every description of cattle
are received, cripples and diseased, and sold to
city dealers. Cows in calf, thin hogs, feverish
and crippled, immature veal and swollen mutton
were the principal qualities sold in the yards"
Can anything more unutterably disgusting
and nauseating than this statement be pro-
duced many portion of civilization? Cattle
with tumors and assesses; feverish and
crippled hogs; immature veal swollen nut
ton ;-these are the materials from which
Chicago gets its meat

There was riot in Richmond, Va, and
some blood shed, few days ago, and the
general in command threatened to treat the
mob to grape-shot. Horace Greeley after
wards addressed the motley multitude as
"my friends and fellow-citizens." ~ shall
speak," he said, "as citizen of New York
to citizens of Virginia, on topics which con-
Germ our common interests, our common
country; and while I shall speak with entire
fankness, ] trust you will realize that /
speak in spirit of kindness to all, and with
Difference to the feelings ofall." Applause. !
And his remarks were full of conciliation.-
This was sensible; but how long is it since
Greeley denounced Gov. Seymour as the
associate of assassins because he addressed
q meeting in New York as ''friends," while
laboring to arrest the riots there
