The man who can't sffJId TO pay for his
paper after taking it several years, at the
expense of the editor, still swallows we'll
from fifteen to twenty-five cents worth Ol
beer or ale, per day, and smokes cigars to
the extent of from fifteen TO thirty cents in
the same time. Not much wonder. Yet
ne wastes enough in year to make his
family comfortable, and-pay for his paper
into the bargain.
At different towns along the leading rail-
roads, girls are in the habit of congregating
to witness the arrival and departure of trains.
Some nice young men" have recently been
playiugof on them, thusly: When the train
arrives they jump of, and huuying forward
ki-s the pretliest girls il the crowd, under
mistake thinking them, as they aver,
their sisters. The apology is made 50 nicely
that IT is laid, the gir.s rather like it We
wouldn' sdyise the young ladies' Of our city
to 20 ln the trains.
a new n.tbOd o. keeping FISH has been
put INTO operation, in Saudusky. The
fish ere taken fresh from the water, and
subjected TO freezing process, which in
two hours time, reduces each to a solid lump
they are then corded up in solid tiers to be
introduced in.o tie market at a time, when
no lake fish can be caught. By this process
fish can be frozen IN the warm days offspring
and transported in the patent Refrigerator
cars, TO any distance aud unpacked in a

Accounts are given in some of the foreign
journals of the healing properties of an oil.
1t is easily made from the yolks of eggs,
snd is sai1 TO be much employed by the
German cOlonists ofSouth Russia as means
of curing cuts, bruises. scratches, etc. The
eggs are boiled hard, the yoIks removed and
crushed and then placed over a fire and stir
red carefully till the whole substance is on
point of catching FIRE, when the oil separates
aud may be poured of. Hen eggs are consid-
cred the best, and nearly two teaspOonfuls
of oil may be gained from a single yolk.
As we started out toward our office, the
other morning, new Voice joined in the
chorus OF the Fish dealers cry. Following
the direction from whence the sound pro-
ceeded, we round a house that was not all a
house, but box, with the lid on one side,
that had grown out Of Fabings and Helms
block, or grown up to it, in a night; and its
occupant was growing eloquent over his
sDecimens of the funny tribe. Surely We
have no need to urge the necessity Of
market, when we have three-all fish mark
cts besides one dealer who sells by sam
ple and fills orders with his samples.
About three o clock on Wednesday morn
ing. the 9th ult, the citizens at Forest
Station, Ohio, were awakened from
their slumbers by the explosion of a large
meteor. 1t was seen passing Fort Wayne
about 2;45 A. NJ, taking an easterly course,
resembling streak of fire, and travelling
with the rapidity of lightning. The explosion
took place about two miles southwest OF
Forest Station, shattering window glass and
shaking houses. The shock was felt for
miles, there being three reports in quick
succession. In its course it resembled the
head lights of a locomotive, aud was of about
that size apparently. It was also seen a.
Dayton, where it was accompanied by a
noise, and long train of flames,
and filed the atmosphere with strong
sulphugie OdOr.
