brothel slang, coupling on to his nouns
a string ofadjectives, like filthy cattle

hausted his supply Of vituperative

he has gone to New Orleans to hang
around the back yards of rebellion to

his filthy paper. The paper claims an

A Model Report.

The locals" Of Chicago indulge in a
style of writing up Police Court cases
which gives peculiar spice to their columns
and wonderfully lightens up the entire
paper, Here is specimen brick from the
Republican.
On Wednesday last the honeymoon of Mr..
and Mrs. Barton ended. 1t ended by mu'
tual agreement, and without any of those
chickering's which too often lend a charm to
married life. That morning Mr.. Barton
bought a latch key, and, when ne came home
to dinner, showed it to his wife. She under
stood it at once. Like all women, she knew
that latch KEYS and honeymoons were incom-
patable things. When the honeymoon is
over. the husband cares for his wife in a
practical point of view He does not want
her to come down to the door late at night
and let him in She might get cold, and
thus become sick.
To show her husband that she agreed to
the ending of the honeymoon Mrs. Barton
invited three elderly married ladies to take
tea with her. The three ladies were prom
inent members Of the NeIghbors' Mission
ary Society. The objects of that society
are to see that ones neighbors live as they
ought to-, and to discuss and investigate
every ones character. Meetings may be
held at any time and at any place. Two
women constitute q quorum. For some
years past the society has been in perpetual
session.
When Mrs. Barton told her husband of
the invitations she had given, he felt happy.
lie saw that she had quietly accepted the
inevitable. He had his supper that evening
at a restaurant When he left there, he met
some friends They asked him how he liked
matrimony. He replied, 8 Let's take
drink" The answer was satisfactory, and
they drank to it, Then they drank to Mr..
Barton, to his wife, to his married lfe-the
last in silence. Becoming confidential, Mr..
Barton told his friends that he knew he
should be the father of large and flourish
ing family of eight or nine children
Would they not drink to those children?-
Separate drinks were had for each of the
nine children. Then they drank to Mr..
Barton's next wife.
At that moment Mr.. Barton was deeply
affected and wept Never. he told his
friends, would he marry again. Even il his
wife died, the greater part of her would
remain with him. He would put her false
hair, teeth, and the numerous other falsities
in glass case, and in gazing on them he
would be gazing on his wife. She was
superior to, and better than any other
woman. She wasn't made out of dust
She was one of Mrs. Demorest's best
articles.
One of Mr.. Barton's friends, Mr.. Cameron,
said those remarks were reflection on a
woman. His fathers grandmother was a
woman, and that made the thing personal.
He would have to knock his friend Barton
down. 1t was his duty to do So and he
trusted Barton would take it in a friendly
spirit.
He knocked Mr.. Barton down and fight
followed.
Then came policeman and arrests.

A Pretty Tough Story.

George Kendall, of the New Orleans Pic
ayune, tells the following story:
" While talking with Captain Wilson, who
is an old salt, and good one, | find in COM
parinc notes that sailed or steamed with
him some sixteen or eighteen years ago, be-
tween Charleston and Philadelphia, on the
Osprey, then running regularly in that trade.
She was slow steamer, but staunch one.
We had a species of adventure on board,
which shall not soon forget. The first NOR
ming after crossing Charleston bar, some
where off Georgetown, if my memory serves
me- we were all, good number of passen-
gers, quietly enjoying ourselves under the
awnings, the weather delightful and the sea
smooth, when suddenly the bow of the steam
er struck some hard substance k'chug, check
ing her up suddenly, and causing her to
culver from stem to stern All rushed to
the sides, both larboard and starloard ex
pecting to see huge log or piece of a wreck
pass by; but nothing could be discovered
not even a limb or piece of plank. There
was wonder and excitement on board, and
as the steamer passed on, many eyes we're
cast astern, expecting to see some kind of
n drift turn up but all was smooth-not a
speck came to the surface the passengers
soon returned to their books or cigars, and in
half an hour all was forgotten.
This was about 10 O'Clock in the morn
ing. After dinner, while | was talking with
the Captain, the engineer came up and qui-
etly said that something was wrong; he had
on his usual head of steam, but the Osprey
was running q knot or a knot and a half
slower than usual be had examined every
part of the machinery, had found it all right,
and could not account for the falling off,
The mate was called, and he, too, was at a
loss he had noticed that the vessel was not
up to her usual speed, yet could not account
for it. Blu. in looking well over the bow,
the whole thing was explained the cutwa
ter of the steamer, crank and deep, had
struck an enormous trunk turtle directly in
the side, had gone aboat half way through
the monster, had fastened to him, and was
pushing him through the water ahead, to
the great detriment of her speed. A church
door, showed sideways, could not have impe
ded the steamers PROCESS much more than
this huge turtle, who was, of course, lying
fast asleer on the surface when struck. Nor
was it an easy matter to disengage him. A
number of men, with hatchets aad axes. were
sentdowu, and first cut off the turtles head
which, rs large as bucket. was drawn on
deck, and taken on to Philadelphia as tro-
phy. The carcass which was thought to
weigh eleven or twelve hundred pounds. was
next cut away, and when once loose from
the strange companion, the Osprey sped at
her usual rate. In all my nautical remini s.
ceuces, do not recollect having read of q
similar occurrence"
