CoNsIsrExcY.-When. at last meeting
OF the Council. Hon. E. d. Palmer, ting
member from I'd Ward, offered the rcso-
luton for the city to appropriate a sum
|of money to assist in defraying the ex
penses Of the Sen2erfest, he was only
acting up to his highest notions Of con-
sistency. Giving $50 more in the 900
for doing the city printing is parallel
case Of reaching iato the City Treasury
and taking therefrom money to assist in
defraying the expenses Of this Society,
and We are not surprised that he made
the efort-it seems natural for him to
have A,gA notions of taking care of the
public interests! The matter was re
ferred to the Committee on Claims,
where We trust it viii be strangled: for
we believe it was q streak Of toddyisns on
Mr. Palmer's part, neither asked for or
1t Unacceptable to our German fellow
citizens, who, We are quite sure, would
seriously object to the same disposition
Of public funds to any other social, re-
ligious, or political organisation, out of
the City Treasury, and they have too
much of a sense of justice to ask for an
appropriation to aid a favorite society
OF theirs, that they would object to hav-
ing extended to others. As long as the
city depends on borrowing money to
defray its necessary expenses and pro-
vide for. the public debt and interest, we
3
suggest to the member from the I'd Ward
to have more of an eye to strict econo-
my regarding the public money. and
less disposition to waste it ON his very
peculiar consistsncy! We do not charge
q red cent for this advice.
TRYING THEIR New BELL.-On Tues
day night of last week, tue No. Is hav-
ing procured new bell and placed it in

and accordingly, a few taps was given
thereon, and the sound falling on the
ear of an over sensitive individual sud-
denly, and ct 10 o'clock, it had the ef-
feds of descending his jaws and forcing
the little word s.fre!" from between his
Hips. TO the full compass OF his strong
pair Of lungs. The cry was taken up
by others and soon the bells Of the 9TH

their brazen throats a most terrible din
and clatter-the people we're at once
.roused-the firemen rushed frantically
TO their Engine Houses, and soon all

way to the south part of the city with

On Thursday last, 25th inst, the Ad-
dieman family held a family gathering
at Whitewater (Hillsboro) in this county.
and about three hundred Of the connex-
ion were present. This being the first
gathering, very little over one third Of
this numerous family were there; but by
next year an effort will be made to get
them all together.
In a beautiful grove stand was erec-
ted, which was decorated with the stars
and stripes. from which the Rev. Mr..
Oglesby, one of the relatives. from Mid
dletown, Ohio, addressed his kindred.
His remarks were pertinent. excellent
and interesting-giving brief history
of the early fathers of the family, and
he exhibited some ancient relics of the
great grand father, who came from Ger
many, in the year 1851. The greetings
of the relatives-the hearty shaking of
hands, and forming new acquaintances,
was full Of hear: and soul, and our infor-
mant says such pleasant and inspiring
scene he had never before witnessed.

THE SEVEN sLEEPERs.

Everybody has heard of the seven
Christian martyrs of Ephesus, who were
enclosed in cave in the third century,
and discovered two centuries after The
legend says they slept all this time. and
SO did dog they had with them, and all
walked up and came out after their great
slumbcr. Mark Twain, who has recent
ly visited Ephesus, gives us, in letter
to the Alta California, the following as
his version of the legend: .'~..1 NV
SIN the Mount of Pion, yonder, is the
Cave of the Seven Sleepers. Once upon
time, about fifteen hundred years ago,
seven young men lived near each other in
Ephesus, who belonged to despised sect
of the Christians. It came to pass that
the good King Maximilianus & am tell
ing this story Tor nice little boys and
sirls) it came to pass, l say, that the good
King Miximilianus got to prosecuting the
Christians, and as time rolled on he made
it very warm for them. So the seven
young men said one to the other, Let US
60 up and dust And they got up and
busted. They .tarried not to bid their
fathers and mothers goodbye, or any
friend they knew. They only took GER
tain moneys which their parents had, and
garments that belonged unto their friends,
whereby they might remember them
when..far away, and they took also the
dog Ketmehr, which was the property of
their neighbor Malchus, because the beast
did run his head into a moose which one
OF the young men was carrying carelessly,
and they had not time to release him !;
aud they took also certain chickens that
seemed lonely in the neighboring coops,
and likewise some bottles of curious IL
quors that stood near the groc9r's window;
and then they departed from the city.
By and by they came to marvellous
cave in the Hill of Pion. and entered in
to it and feasted, and presently they hur-
ried on again. But they forgot e bot
tie of curious liquors, and left them be-
hind. They travelled in many lands,
and had many strange adventures, They
were virtuous young men, and lost no op-
portunity that fell in their way to make
a livelihood. Their. motto was these
words: "Procras ination is the thief Of
time" And so, Whenever they did come
upon man who was alone they said:
Behold this person has the wherewithal
let us go through him And they
went through him. AT the end of five
years they had waxed tired of travel and
adventure, and longed to revisit their old
home again and hear the voices and SET
the faces that were dear unto their youth
! Therefore they went through such partie
