GALL Is NOT LOST. The Milwaukee Sem
tinel comments with good-humored sarcasm
upon Mrs. Stanton's proposition that women
shall dress like men in all respects and says:
But we console ourselves with the redec-
ton that if our trousers are carried, all will
not be lost. We shall be measurably secure
until repeated assaults have battered us down
to the stature of women, wrenched out our
boards, hoisted our bass voices into soprano,
pared down our big feet and hands and noses,
contracted our chests, expanded our hips and
parted our hair in the middle. These things
accomplished, if we can be induced to climb
on a chair at the approach of mouse, and
screech violently at the unexpected appear
ance of a spider, the metamorphoses will be
complete, and we shall be at the mercy Of
brutal women, and compelled to suckle in
fants, sew on buttons, and do other disagree
able things for women's wages. And then
how humiliating to think that when women's
victory is thus completed she will appear far
more elegant and graceful than any real man!
The thing is dreadful to contemplate. Our
nerves are only quiet when we reflect that in
proportion as elegance and grace are more
conspicuous in women, in the same proper
ton will the concealment of sex be turned in
to revealment. We should be thankful for
even this little safeguard against the brutal
women, this trifiing protection against falling
desperately in love with other men, to our un-
doing.

SHARP PRACr1CE OF A TEXAN
That Texas is a great State none
will deny, and that a few, just a
few of her citizens are "devilish
sly" is a proposition equally incon-
trovertible. In years past it was
about drawn game between some
of the Texas wagoners and a friend
Of ours of the Jewish persuasion.
To pick up little things lying round
loose in the store while the NOR
chant may have been "giving him
the goose" in the matter of light
weights, was regarded by the lower
class of gentlemen wagoners" as
q fit subject of laughter around
the campfire at night. ..o1D
Of course the large mass Of
these wagoners were clever, and
honest men, but the most of them
were the hardest sort of cases, and
when a crowd were together, to
grossly insult ladies or gentlemen
on the public road was to them
the very highest order of fun
But whilst the war seems to have
demoralised the rest Of the, South
ern people it would seem to have
had a humanising effect upon Tex
as wagoners, for we never hear
complaints against them as Of old.
They have probably improved by
being brought in contact whit
yankee shreWdness. An incident
we heard Of the other dav would
serve tostrengthen the superstition.
"A gentleman, whom we will call
Thompson for short, was indebted
to q mercantile establishment ia
this place to the amount of some
eleven or twelve hundred dollars.
Brown we will call him, was a
neighbor OF Thompson's, and in
conversation with the merchant
hsd, some time previous to the
ooaPin question, expressed grave

B3- The late paper on the Gee
illogical Reconnaissance of Loui-
siana,' by Prof. Hilgard, to the
New Orleans Academy of Science,
contains matter of much interest.
In regard to the petroleum indica-
tons the Professor is not sanguine.
From the Oil Springs of Calcasieu
he does not anticipate a great or
long continued Aow, as he thinks
the supply small. He believes,
however, that the great sulphur
bed which lies beneath them is of
much greater value than almost
any supply ofaoil. This bed Of
sulphur is remarkably pure, and
though the arrangements for min
ing may prove expensive, yet it
can scarcely fail to prove highly
profitable. This is doubtless the
largest body of pure sulphur at
present accessible to commerce.
In Sicily; from which country most
of the sulphur used inthis country
is obtained. Sulphur beds are 4
mine of wealth. At present $40
pits are open, and the annual yield
has been about 100000 tons. In
1857 as much as 49,, 900 tons were
exported. The sulphurous soil of
Sicily extends over the whole
island, from Mount Etna in the east
Irapini, to near the wine district
Of Marsala, in the west. The sui
phur is found in layers Of minute
crystals alternating with calcare-
GUS deposits. The principal CEN
tres of production are Caltaniset-
To. Agrigentum, Palermo, Catania,
and Trapani. The Louisiana de-
posits are, perhaps, the purest
known, lie in compact bodies, and
are almost Immediately accessible

MUNICH has come to this city with
thewifs and four children Of man
named John Haag, of Kansas City,

Times, which, in its issue Of Sat
urday, contains half a column, de-
scribing the runaway. A portion
of it is as follows
Thursday evening last, John
Haag returned home found his
wife and Munich making love I'm

fully, it had been necessary for
Charles to press to his heart that
form which was Johns and to
whisper softly tender things IN
those ears which were Johns too.
He did all these things, and John
Haag, the husband, saw him and
smiled complacently, and smoked
his pipe. and mutterd mildly:
Dash ish goot. Tomorrow we

Yesterday morning these "some-
dings" came about. Haag and his
wife visited Squire Craven's Office
together, where she signed over to
her husband all right, title and in
terest belonging to her in their
Kansas City property, and then de-
parted. At three o'clock yester-
day Haag went to Marshal Keck
and said to him ..>.. sa
"Come with me and do me q
favor. Ny wife is running off. Go
with me and see her." W."
The Marshal, imagining Haag
drunk or crazy, would not go at
first, but finally consented, and at
the Missouri Pacific Railroad De-
pot they found Mrs. Haag, Munich,
and the four children en- route for
st. Louis. Haag seemed to take
everything as a matter of course.

They went to a saloon across the
street, wife children, husband and

then cigars, then Haag shook
hands with Munich. then with his
wife coolly, and at last with his

boys he showed some emotion
