SANDWICHES.

Stringy and old, and lame and halt,
Was the pig whose flesh was put in salt.
Such gristly stuff was the sailed meat,
That it seemed about half fit to eat.
They hacked it in chunks with knife SO
blunt,
That it almost made the animal grunt.
They offer the sandwich chunks for sale
To the hungry folks who rid. by rail.
A lunch for famished man to eat,
Two chunks of bread and chunk of meat.
The bread so sour and the meat so tough,
That bite or two is bite enough.
The buffers rank and the mustard's strong,
And that is the end Of my Sandwich Song.

INCIDENTS OF REGlsTRATIoN.-Few persons
have failed to observe the number of strange
darkies in town, most of them bearing evil
dence of their rural simplicity. Some OF these
imported voters caused considerable amuse-
ment around tho polls in answering the ques-
tions put to them. At one precinct an old ne
gro said that he lived in Smith-streot, by the
bakehouse, and could give no better descrip-
ton of his local habitation. Another wanted
to register, but was candid enough to tell the
managers that he did not live in town, and
would leave for homo after the election. His
vote will not be pollcd unless he is manipula-
ted more successfully to-day. At one or two
precincts the managers were armed with an
oath yard long, and compelled the applicants
to swear fealty to the constitution and laws Of
the State and United States, and also that they
had not done those things which they should
not have done during the war. The victims
were, in most instances, accustomed to swear
ing, and took the oath at gulp. Though
there was q large crowd and considerable
wire-pulling around the lower precincts, the
majesty ofthe law was not violated, and every
thing was conducted decently and in order.

CoaoNER's MoUEsr.-On Saturday Coroner
Whiting held e1 inquest on tho body OF John
Welsch, German, about twenty years OF ase.
Welsch had been working on Shepard's farm,
where he contracted a severe case OF chills and
fever. he refused to send for doctor, pre-
ferring to use the remedies recommended by
friends. Ono of these was to drink quart OF
whiskey. Welsch procured bottle and drank
o pint aud half in fifteen minutes. which
caused his death in short time. Tho jury
rendered verdict that the deceased came to
his death from congestion of the brain, caused
by excessive use of spirituous liquors.
