DEATH OF ARTEMAS WARD"

Charles F. Browne, better known as
"Artemas Ward" died, as we learn by
Cable dispatches of the 18th inst, at
Southampton, on the 9th. We made
the acquaintance of "Artemas" while
he was employed as local editor on the
Cleveland (O.) Ploindea5er, and before
his reputation as a humorous writer and
lecturer, had become worldwide. He
left Cleveland, went to New York and
became editor-in-chief Of Family Fair.
We met him several times after, and
always found him the same modest, I'M
assuming, genial, chivalric gentleman.
1t is with the most profound feelings of
regret, that we announce his early
demise, in a foreign land. Lightly rest
the sod upon his bosom.

II would appear that we have not
only disturbed the equanimity of the
Berkeley Union, but judging from its
last article in reply to the "NEw ERA, !"
have considerably riled the eoncern-so
much so, indeed, that it is induced to
lay heavy stress and a doubt upon the
word gentlemen" as applied to us,
just as though we cared fig for its
opinion in that respect, or in fact any
other. It's bombastic announcement
that tive write our own articles,o and
that our article entitled More Bladder
dash'' is "beneath the notice. of the
inflated conductors of that concern,
would be amusing if it were not simply
ridiculous. But as Hudibras has it,
Many a goose has fancied himself swan,
And many monkey man."
The Union, if we rightly understand
it, insinuates that former editor of
this paper is the author of the articles
which seem to have so deeply wounded
it's tender sensibilities. In justice to the
party referred to, whoever he be, and
not from any desire to satisfy the Union,
we will state that such is not the fact.
No former editor of the NEW ERA"
has written line for it since it came
under our control. Were we possessed
of like vanity we might follow the very
bad taste of the Onion, and flamingly
announce to the public that tive write
our own articles ;" but as none, save
those whom we would not take the
trouble to satisfy, seem to have any
doubts, or at least desire for information
i'll regard to the matter, we refrain from
such a gratuitous manifestation of ego
tistieal folly.

UNRAvELING.-Am man coming home
late one night, little more than half
seas over, feeling thirsty procured a glass
of water and drank it. In doing so, he
swallowed a ball of silk, that lay in the
bottom OF the lumber, the end catching
in his teeth. Feeling something in his
noutil, and not knowing what it was,
he began pulling at the end, and, the
little ball unrolling, he soon had several
feet in his hands, and still no end, APP
parently. Terrified, he shouted at the
top of his voice, "wife! wife! ] say
wife! come here! [ am unraveling."
