n0- A good joke is told, in legis.
lative circles, at the expense Of the
member Of the House from Coshoc-
ton, who was chairman of the joint
committee to examine Longview and
other luuatic asyIums. Among the
inmates of Longview was one who
Iabored under the hallucination that
he was not only owner Of the essab-
lishment but Of the surrounding coun-
try. Talking to Mr.. ThornhiIi and
Dragging about bis possessions. ntbe
member from Coshoctonl pretended
wish to purchase. This the lunatic
declined. "Rut," says Mr.. Thorn
hill, "can't you sell me small farm ;
| wish to live here, and you surely
will not miss it out of your large pos.
sessions ?" "That's true" said the
lunatic; ~ have got enough, but l

THE BIBLE OF ROBERT RURNs.--
The distinguished honor, says the
Macon Journal, is reserved to the
Grand Lodge Of Georgia of having
in its possession the ancient Bible
used by Burns in bis Lodge, and
which can be seen at every meeting
Of Macon Lodge, Constantine Chap
ter, or the Grand Lodge. Il bears
the evidence Of it's antiquity IN its
printing, quaint illustrations and bind
ing in boards Of the "beechen tree"
Its history is traced to its present
"deposit in our archives" in the foil
owing extract from the proceedings
Of the Grand Lodge Of 1850:
Brother D. G.. Gambler presented
Bible in German Text, from Colonel
Henry P. Thomas an elderly Scotch
lady owho-states that twas hsrlgrand-
fathers family Bible; that he was q
member Of Dumfriesshire Lodge, in
Scotland, and the Bible now presented
was used in tba. Lodge when Robert
Burns presided over it. Il is pow
presented to be deposited In the Ii.
brary Of the Grand Lodge, and the
following memorandum to be printed
and permanently affixed to the same :
'This book was presented to the
Grand Lodge Of the State Of Georgia
on the lst day Of November, 1850,
by Brother D. G.. Gambler, IN the
name Of Col. Henry P. Thomas, Of
Gwynoett country. 1t was obtained
by Col. Thomas from q Scotch lady,
ninety years Of ago, who states that
it was her grandfather's family Bible.
Her grandfather was native Of Ger
many, who iDtermarried with a Scotch
lady and settled in .Dumfriesshire,
and was member Of the Masonic
Lodge at that place when the poet
Burns D, esided over the Dumfriesshire
Lodge, and family tradition says that
it was at that time used in that
Lodge. 1t has been preserved since
that time with great care, on account
OF the "reminiscences that cluster
around it, and has been surrendered
up with the expressed understanding
that it be BY Brother Chandler deliv-
cred up to M. w. G. NJ. Rockwell,
and deposited in the Grand Lodge Of
Georgia, to be preserved"

~ A moustache spoon is sal,

n A moustache spoon is said to
be one of the latest Yankee inven-
tions. the object being to provide
spoon by means Of which soup, medi-
cine, ETC., may be carried to the
mouth without liability Of being
spilled or of soiling the moustache.
The invention consists in movable
cover 30 combined with the bowl of
the spoon that it may cover the
greater portion. It also consists in
the combination of lever and a
spring with. the spoon and the cover,
so that the latter may be readily
closed or opened. H.#@ .a21
