nle tronble themsely, to think what the effect
would be if the eclipse of Saturday were to last

not only would horror Of darkness cover the
earth, but the moisture OF the air would De
precipitated In vast showers to the earth, and
the temperature fall to fearful point OF cold

would be the seat Of darkness, and more than
Arctic desolAtion. Nothing could survive such
freezing cold moment, more than one could

Now. then. gentlemen, we desire q bona .fde

made by this company, !. c., that Of taking the

is made q point Of difference for the sakc OF a
convenient loop.holc to crawl out OF; and at the
samc time making an appearance OF acceptance.
As will be seen, all other conditions and ar
ranUements have been LEFT entirely with the
challenged company. No arguments can be nd.
duccd to prove TINT n trnck !" outside ofthe lin

ourhly familiar. But, as Is stated by Mr.. Young.
on bekalr OF his company, this race grows out OF

A RuNAwAY.-About ii o'clock to-
day, a gray horse attached to a job
wagon took it into his head 10 run away
from Clark & Ordway's store on South
C street, Virginia. He was evidently a
polite horse, as he took to the sidewalk
for hi. trial Of speed-and in his course
he made a smash Of several docile look
ing awning posts, store-boxes, etc., and
to let folks know that he was a fast
horse he came near running into tho
place where Wood Goes store was
swallowed up by the cave IN the Choiiar
mine. There was great excitement at the
event. Charley Legate says he will
have to get the committee on
~"leather and rawhides" to see about
these runaway horses, as they are get
ting faster than tho committee Itself.

The PROFESSOR IN A FIx.-Some stu
dents in one of our colleges being fre-
quently annoyed by the nocturnal and
inquisitorial visits of professor, who sus-
pected them of playing cards, one eve
ming prepared a kettle of mush, other
wise called hasty pudding, aud by the
time it was boiled, had seated themselves
around the table in the attitude of card
playing, waiting patiently for the well
known step of the professor. 1t wps no
sooner heard than large outside pock-
ct of one Of them was forthwith filed
with hasty pudding, and all were seated
as before. As soon as the professor had
opened the door the student who was
loaded with the mush made a sudden
sweep over the table with his hand as if
to gather up the cards, and with another
motion apparently put them into the
pocket containing the mush. These
movements could not help being noticed,
as they were intended to be, by the pro-
fessor, who, considering them as a pretty
strong evidence of guilt, broke out with
the following Well, young gentle
men, I've caught you at last, have II"
Why, yes, sir, we are all here"
So | see you are, and you have been
playing cards, too"
"No, it is not SO"
1t isn't, hal what have you got in
your pocket, young man 2"
Hot hasty pudding, SIR"
Hot hasty pudding, ha ! hasty pud-
ding, have you I? I'll hasty pudding you"
