A pEn1LoUs FEAT.

The Saa Francisco, tCal) Chronicle
of May 18th, gives the following &C.
count of an eriel ride on bycicle in
that6city:i 9stt;fsk tse @sits q
At the Mechanics Pavilion yester-
day, Paul Martinetti accomplished one
of the most perilous feats ever at
tempted stsa public exhibition in this
city, by riding velocipede backward
and forward on a single wire the
whole length of the mammoth building
The wire was stretched from the front
entrance of the pavilion to the old
picture gallery at the back, q distance
of 200 feet. In the center of the foan-.
tain was placed an upright post to
hold up the sag of the. wire, SO that
the velocipede had to pass over a
rather steep inclination to get over
this post. lMartinetti, on the first
velocipede ever used in the pavilion,
run the machine at a smart pace to the
top of the post and remained there
several seconds, when he started down
the decline on the other side, and bal
lanced the yelocipede at the lowest
level on thewire and then came the
whole distance to the starting place
without turning himself or the ma
chine. When il is taken into consid-
Grafton that the wire, less than half an
inch thick, was suspended twenty
feet from the floor, and stumble
would have probably been fatal, some
idea of the peril of the feat may be
formed. It was performed with as
much ease as if the velocipede5 had
been ON the floor.

JOSH BILLINGS CONCERNING CoURr-
ING.-Thare is wimmen who are az ca
zy to court as lint.
"Luv at fust sight" is like eating
honey. 1T tduz seem az tho yu never
could get enuff oft. ao3ez3e q
This kind ov luv is apt to make
blunders, and IL az hard to back out ot
azsWell..ai-.s igsiait 2 zi.iz4 % asi=7tts.ssf
But thare amt no such thing az pure
mathumathicks in courting. If it il
all nature, it IL too innocent for earth
and if it IL all science, it IL much like
job.TaAa ~lt- fslf
Perhaps the best way to court is to
begin without much ov3 emmy plan
WHARF yu are going tew fetch up, and
see bow Fu and she likes it, then let
the thing Kind ov worry along kare-
less, like throwing stones into a mill
pond. s','
You will find ONE thing tew be
strictly true, the moro advice you un-
dertake to follow, the less amount OF
good courting yon will do.

AETIDoFE FOR BEE STING.4-A cor
respondent of the Bee Journal gives
the following as an effectual antidote
for bee sting: :.
A few days ago I was stung on the
right wrist. I removed the sting with
the point Of my penknife and applied
a little kerosene oil. The pain imme-
diately subsidized, and no Inflammation
appeared. Yesterday I was stung
again, on the other wrist, and applied
the same remedy, with the same hap
py results. 4.a.i5,
1 think I may rejoicingly say that
the discovery is made, that kerosene
oil is an effectual antidote for the poi
son Of the bee-stiiig. Let others try
it.
AT a duel the parties discharged
their pistols without effect, whereup-
on one of the seconds entered, and
proposed that the combatants should
shake hands. To this the other Sec
ond objected as unnecessary, ss.For, .
said he, "their hands have been shak-
ing this half hour"
