Celebration OF the Paas Festival.
The st. Nicholas Society celebrated the Paas festi-
val by banquet last evening at Demonlcos. This

resentative KnickerbocKers, faithfully as well as
iOv,ally honors all its customs, which generally
characterized the social hours OF our ancestors.
Although exclusive In degree, the St.
Nicholas Society is free from the snobbery that
marks other kindred organizations. The members
congregate for the purpose OF enjoying themselves
and with tie usual laccompeniments desire to smoke
their respective clay pipes IN peace. Moreover

STOCKS IRREGULAR AND HEAyy


The stock market was strong until after the boards
when 1t became heavy and declined rather sharply
for the Northwest shares St. Paul and New Jersey
Central. Northwest was especially weak in the
preferred shares which fell TO 843s on the report
that convertible b0Eds had been turned into stock
and that the rival aspirants for directoral hOnors
had fused on a mutually acceptable ticket. The real
secret of the decline, however, lies In the heavy de-
in earnings during the first quarter OF 1870
and in the gradual unloading OF the clique The

The Explosion OF Humbu ug The
Cardiff Giant Outdone.

From the st. Paul Pieneer. Feb. Is
The "Red River rebellion has at
length pegqed out" we might say has
Winnipegged out, and suggests a new
phrase 10 express the fzz 9 of humbugs
in general. That is what this was at the
stsrt, and all the wsy through. Those
half breeds have never sought inde-
! pendence, and, much less, annexation
They were dissatisfied from fear that
they might lose their title to the land on
which they had sqnatted, and q, few men,
among them 10. Rolette and S utsmsn
of Pembins, melted the commission
| of riot, and the occupancy of the
old deserted Fort Garry, important
| only because it contained supply
of Hudson Bay Company's stores.
All else that has been done has been
the merest farce, except McDougall's re-
treat which was forced, not by the Red
River tribes, but because 10. Roletie and
| Slutsman had caused them to be refused
articles of food at Pembins, by frighten-
| ing the tradesmen at that place with sto-
ries CT United States interference, and
that to furnish supplies TO McDougall
would be treason. The convention, the
proclamation, etc., have been ssucy rig
maroe, over which their authors laughed
in their composition. The column after
column published in the Press has, half
of it, been pure invention, and the bal
anee o grotesque exaggeration. The
entire affair never amounted, in extent
nor importance, to q tenth part OF what
the New York snti.rent riots did.
There has never been time, nor would
there hereafter have been q time, when
the outbreak would require the exertion
of over two companies of troops in it's
suppression. These would have reached
there early in the summer, had not the
disturbance been pesceably ended as it
has. These people express unbounded
surprise at the notice their little friendly
demonstration has attracted. They hear
with astoDshment what the ST. Paul
Press has published. and when they re-
ceive notice that Senator Rimsey pro.
poses plebiscitunl, they will hasten to
their Sioux dictionary to 6nd out what
laundering epeSation is to be provided,
and whether they can go through it with
out stripping off their breeehclouts.
We shall accept with complacency our
share of the ridieule. We we're flooded
with spontaneous letters from there of a
ample purport to those published in the
Press. We gave place to two or three,
aud then became sati, e ID of their spu.
rious character. The other newspapers
who we're bumbugged in the same wsy
adhered to the sensation sell, and the |
Press is still trying to make out that it
ioas great affair 1t never was even q
great fizzlp, and is not now, outside Of
the Press letters and Rsmsey's speech,
which Is the most ridiculous part of the
whole

Chicken ON the Brain.

Near Erie there lives colored person
by the name Of James Stewart, whom the
community, by common consent, have
dubbed Commodore Stewart. Hs is 6
talented but eccentric individual, sRd hgI
weakness for chickens. On one occa'
sion, being found near q poultry yard
under suspicious circu instances, he was
interrogsted rather sharply by the owner
of the premises as follows:
well, jim, what are you doing here p
"Oh, nufho, muffin; jess wslkin roun.
What do you want with my chickens 2
Muffin at ell. was only lookin' al
'em, deY look so nice" /"
This answer was both contradictory
aud conclusive, and would have baen sat
isfActory had it not been for J.m's hat.
This was rather worn soft felt, good
deal too large for it's wearer's head, and
it seemed to have a motion entirely unu-
susl in hats, and manifestly due to some
remarkable cause. Il seemed to coD-
tract and expand. snd move of itself, and
clearly without Jim's volitiou. So the
next inquiry was:
"What is the matter with your hat 2"
ny uat ual hh oie hat' &c AOuu
of that hat"
"well, take it off, and let's look at it
"T4ke off dis hai2 No, sab. I'd
ketch cold in my heard, sartin. Always
keep my hat on when Pm out Of doors"
And with that Jim was about beating
q hastY retreat, when. at his first step,
low kluk, kluk, kluk," was heard. COM
ing only too clearly from the region of
his head gear. This was fatal, aud Jim
was stopped and forced to remove bis hat,
when o plump, half grown chicken
Jumped out aud ran hastily sway. The
air with which the culprit gszsd after it
vas study for a painter; it expressed
10 perfection wonder and per2lexiiy
but not a trace of guilt. Slowly
be spoke, as though explaining the mat
ter to himself, and accounting for so re-
msrkable an incident.
"Well, If dat sin't de funniest ting
sbber did see. Why, dat dsr chicken
