GEORGE AUGUSTUS SALA has been study
ing the philosophy of drunkenness, and
argues in late magazine article that the
spread of cigar-smoking is one of the
chief causes of the decline of intemper-
ance in respectable and refined society.
He admits that this looks like a paradox,
but asserts that it is not, and supports
his assertion by saying: ga drunken
man cannot enjoy cigar at all; and a
sober one cannot appreciate any wine
save thin claret while he is smoking =
A doubter asks if Mr.. Sala has deter.
mined the relative amount of pleasue to
be derived from smoking and wine-sip-
ping.

The Jonesboro Herald and Tribune
of the 1st inst. says that Mr.. Samuel j.
Kirkpatrick, has on his farm, near that
place a brood of chickens which present
the rare features of a complete cross of
the Guinea with the common barn-yard
fowl. The eggs, which were laid by a
Guinea hen, Matched out in just three
weeks, while the ordinary Guinea egg
takes four weeks. The chickens are said
to have strange weired appearance, and
to give utterance to a sound unlike any
thing else in nature.

An enterprising husband in Minnesota
advertises his wife fer sale. He warrants
her to be gentle, affectionate and devoted,
and claims for her knowledge of human
nature which he himself does not possess.
In short, he thinks that she knows too
much to suit him, and he would like to
find a man of better education who would
be willing to marry her after she has been
divorced.

GREELEY,S CHIROGRAPHY.

Horace Greeley's handwriting sometimes
leads to different results from those in
tended. Thus when he wrote to gentle
man of Sandwich, Ill, in answer to an in
vitation to lecture, saying:
Dear Sir: am oyerwOrked and grow
ing old. l shall be 80 next February 8.
On the whole it seems must decline to
lecture henceforth, except in this immedi-
ate vicinity, if do at all. cannot prom
Use to visit Illinois on that errand-cer-
tainly not now. Yours,
HORACE GREELEY.
He was rather surprised by the inter-
probation and consequent reply:
SANDWICH, ILL, May 12.-Horace
Greeley, New York 1ri6lme-Dear Sir
Your acceptance to lecture before our
association next winter came to hand this
morning. Your pennmanship not being
the plainest, it took some time to translate
it; but we succeeded, and would say your
time-'E9d of Feb" and terms-''$60,"
are entirely satisfactory. As you suggest,
we may be able to get you other engage
ments in this immediate vicinity; if so,
we will advise you. Yours respectfully,
NJ. B. CASTLE.
He had the answer to this set up and
printed in the Tribune Office, carefully
reading the proof, so that there would be
no further mistake.

THE HEART IHhUE.
l never gave thee cause to break
Thy vow so freely given;
/ never thought that thou wouldst make
This heart so desolate, or shake
My souls belief in heaven!
1 never thought thou wouldst be one
To blast me with look Of scorn.
What to thee have ever done
To turn thy very heart to stone,
Or plant in mine q thorn
What have done, that thou shouldst wiring
These tears, that will unbidden start
Is there no balm to heal the sting
That thy cold look will always bring,
And chill the ife-blood of my heart
No! but in after years, when
Shall be forgotten-thou shalt see
From other realms beyond the sky
NY spirit from its home on high,
In visions bright watch over thee!

OBITUARY.-W hen death overtakes
the aged and decrepit, it is looked up
on as a happy deliverance from a
world of care, disease and pain.
When it comes on the wings of wars
leaden messenger. the victim is can
nonized as a martyr to his country,
and his name, wreathed in the lau-
rols he has won, lives forever in the
hearts of his countrymen. But when
the insidious vapors of a new and
strange climate silently steal upon
their victim, and before be is aware Of
the enemy's approach. seal his fate,
no lasting monument is his; no halo
of glory surrounds his memory, but
sinking silently into the sepulchre,
he is forgotten.
So died the learned and m~etaphys-
ical Ebenezer Stebbins, late of Fort
Wayne, Indiana, of bilious, nervous,
complicated COMPOSITIONS, as a conse-
quence of a sudden change of eli
mate.
His remains, in charge of his faith
ful friend and fellow sufferer, Colonel
Perkins MoCarty, went North on
Tuesday, in consequence of which the
Colonel was necessarily absent from
the hop of the Norma Club on that
evening.
The widow. Sabrina, will retire to
the privacy and seelusion of her log
hut, on the banks of the limpid Wa
bash Canal. near Eds grave. to spend
her days in sorrow.
Colonel Perkins McCarty, whose
fragile frame, (six feet nine,) unable
to stand the Southern climate, has
asked and received an appointment
at Pembina, where, in the cool atmos-
phere of that hyperborean climate, he
hopes to gain his usual weight of three
hundred pounds, his present averdu-
pois being a mere trife of two hun
dred and forty.

HIS WEAKNESS WAS HEREDITARY.
Poor Keys. who died a d~runkard's
death, evidently inherited his weak
ness for whisky. His father came to
the city yesterday, on hearing of his
death, but instead of taking posses
sion of his remains and giving them
such a burial as any decent father
would do, he proceeded to get drunk.
When the time for the train to go
north arrived, Mr.. Mauntel, the
Chief of Police, had to almost carry
him to the depot and put him on the
train for home. Like father, like
son."

Court OF COMMON PLEAs.-Di-
vorces were granted to Flora Eliza
Richardson from her husband James,
for abandoning his Flora. To Louisa
Dennison from Paul Dennison, who
went to Kentucky. Paul is described
as an old bird, whose face was well
known to habitues of the Criminal
Court. A colored Daniel. whose
first name is William. was separated
from another Daniel, whose euphoni-
Gus appellation is Lutetia.
The morning was taken up in this
Court by arguing on demurrers in the
Sinnissippi and other insurance
cases.
In the case of Wm. Munich and
Jos. Schafer VS.. Wendell Schmidt,
where the plaintiff sued for a balance
of $40, on contract for building, the
defendant, as an Offset, fled an afida-
Wit setting forth hat the work was
not done as the contract required, and
claimed $40 damages for the nom
compliance.
The Court rendered judgment for
the defendent for the fall amount of
his claim, and allowed the plaintiff
$23 for the balance. By this decision
the plaintiff gets SIT of a judgment
against him.
