The Sorrows of Tammany.

There is fresh trouble in the ranks of
the N. Y. Democracy. Some of the
leaders have come to the conclusion
that it is extremely desirable to take
the advice we have more than once Civ
en- them, and get rid of the reproach
which the government of this City has
long been to the whole party. 1t is
not too much to say that the fragrant
corruption and proAigacy exhibited in
New York have made the Democratic
party by-word all the world over. It
has injured it almost irreparably in the
eyes of the great body of the Ameri-
can people. Nothing can be more nat
ural than for thoughtful persons to say.
"We can judge what a Democratic
rule would lead us to from the condi-
tion of New York. The Democrats are
the masters of that city, and see what
they have made of it. There is no mys-
terry with regard to the fruit which
comes from that tree. We have only
to look to New York city to see it in
perfection" The city is, in fact, a
standing warning to the nation against
permitting itself to fall into the hands
OF the Democrats. The example makes
a greater impression upon the public
mind than all the argument or invec-
tive of political adyersaries.-N 2.

Melancholy Tragedy.

! 1t becomes ou1duty, this morning
to narrate the parhSSlars of one of The
most painful suicides that has occurred
IN this vicinity for considerable length
of time.
Last Thursday the steamer Maggie
Hays, on her way from New Orleans
to Memphis, exploded one of her boil
ers, just below Helena, Ark. Cant
Barney G. Martin, the captain of the
boat, was badly scalded, and died in a
few moments on board the steamer
Commercial, to which boat he was con-
veyed after the accident. His body
was sent to this city by rail, arrived
here yesterday, and was forwarded by
the steamer R. r. Hudson to Sisters
vile, West Virginia, for iuterment.
Captain Martin was married several
years ago to Miss Sallie Limebaugh, of
this city, and lived with his Bife's fam
lily, on Water street, below Plum. The
marriage was secret one, and had new
er been made public. When the news
OF the Captains terrible death reached
his wife, she swooned, and has ever
since been very much detected.
When the body reached this city,
Mrs. Martin begged permission of her
husbands brothers to see the corpse.
The request was finally granted, and
when she gazed upon the loved features
now cold in death, she remarked to the
brothers, in significant tone, 81 will
never trouble you again"
The steamer Mary Ament left for
the up river country two or three hours
in advance of the r. R. Hudson, and
upon this boat Mrs. Martin engaged
passage for New Richmond, Ohio. As
she went on board she remarked to the
Captain that she would not long be
separated from her husband. In her
conversation with him she seemed very
respondent, and frequently inquired
when the Hudson, which was faster
boat, would Overtake them. When
they arrived at New Richmond the
Hudson had not come up, and she
then paid her fare to Shiloh. Pres
emily it was noticed that the door of
her state-room was standing open. On
examination her clothing was found
lying on the floor, but she was no.
where to be found. 1t seems certain
that the unfortunate woman, distracted
with grief at the loss of her husband,
waited until the Hudson came along
side, and then, when the remains of
her beloved were nearest her, plunged
into the Ohio and buried her grief be-
meath the dark waters.
Mr.. Limebaugh has been very un-
fortunate Of late. The husband of his
eldest daughter was accidentally shot
and killed, at Springfield, Ohio, about
six weeks ago. A few days ago anoth-
er son-in-law was killed, and as if to
crown his sorrows, the daughter her
self has now committed suicide. These
calamities, occurring Ia sueh quick sue
cession, have completely prostrated
him. Cin Gazette, FEB. 17M.

How He Came to be Married.

1t may be funny, but I've done it.
I've a rib and a baby. Shadows de-
parted-oyster stews, brandy cocktails,
cigar-boxes, boot-jacks, absconding
shirt buttons, whist and demijohn.-
Shadows present-hoop skirts, band
boxes, ribbons, garters, long stockings,
Juvenile dresses, tin trumpets, little
willow chairs, cradles, bibs, sugar
teats, paragoric, hive syrup, rhubarb,
senna, salts, squills, and Doctors bills.
I'll just tell you how got caught. 1

it was kinder in my line to be taken

pretty gal approaching, and I'd cross
the street any time rather than face
one; 'twasn't because / didn't like the
critters, for l was behind a fence, look
ing through knot-hole. 1 could not
look long enough. Well, my sister Lib
gave party one night, and l started
away from home because l was too
bashful to face the music. 1 hung
around the house whistling "Old Dan
Tucker" dancing to keep my feet
warm, watching the heads bobbing up
and down behind the window curtains,
and wishing the laundering party
would break, so l could get to my
room. l smoked up bunch Of cigars,
and as it was getting late and mighty
uncomfortable, l concluded to shin up
the door-post. No sooner said than
done, and 1 soon found myself in
bed.
"Now," says 1, "let her rip! Dance
till your wind gives out" And cud-
ding down under the quilts, Morpheus

"Let us in." said she.
"I won't" said 1; "can't you let q

still, small voice, very much like sister
Lib's, and it said:

E New York has a horse that
recently performed a curious freak.
He walked out of the stable and
pushing open the door of his owner 9
house, began quickly to ascend the
stairs. The first story reached, some
twelve steps, his horseship quietly
oazed out of the windows and con-
tinued his ascent to the second story.
There again he paused to take breath,
and soon arrived at the landing OF
the third story, where, after resting
awhile, he began to descend, having
managed to turn around on the mar
row landing. Going down, however,
was more difficult than going up, and
his fore feet slipping he went
through the sash of the second story
window, thrusting his head -snd
shoulders out and presenting very
contented appearance. At this juno
ture an alarm was raised. A colored
man was so frightened at the apparl-
ton that he made the best OF his
way through another second story
window and fell to the ground. The
police having been sent for, they
succeeded in extricating the horse
from the window, but had terrific
time after tsking him into custody in
getting him down the two flight OF
stairs.

RUINED.-A bankrupt merchant
returning home one night said to his
noble wife, "My dear, 1 am ruined,
every thing we have is in the hands
of the sheriff"
After a few moments of silence,
the wife looked calmly into his face
and said:
"Will he sell your Oh, no. Will
the sheriff sell me2 Oh, no. Will the
sheriff sell all the children? Oh no.
Then do not say we have lost every
thing. All that is most valuable re-
mains to us-manhood, womsnhood,
and childhood. We have lost but
the results of our skill and industry.
We can make another fortune, if our
hearts and hands are left u.s."

Mr.. Joseph Powell, Commercial
Agent of the United States at Port
Stanley, Falkland Islands, writes home
as follows:
"You may be aware that this is the
last sailing point next to the South
Pole. Beyond this no vessel ever sails,
and human footsteps are never seen.
1t is perpetual winter-snOw every
month in the year. The islands are
naked of tree and bush, and very little
soil--high mountains and hills of vol
canic rock over nine-tenths of the sur
face. Nothing of the grain kind is
raised--no seed time or harvest. There
are no animals, except wild horses and
cattle. Foxes and rabbits have been
brought here and increased--much
larger than those in the United States.
No snakes, frogs, feas, spiders, bed
bugs, or insects of any kind. The
wind blows all the time-often so strong
that you can not look out. The popu-
lation, all told, does not exceed three
hundred on all the islands, and are
very poor. This is only a harbor for
wrecks. Expenses are very high, and
living poor-no comforts of life what
ever. Board and lodging, annually.

"Bad PantaloOns don't keep bOy

E The Philadelphia Ledger scouts
the idea which some timid persons
have come to entertain, that the coun-
try is on tie eve of bankruptcy in
trade. 1t says: 'Trade. for the last
half year has not shown that hustle
which we have sometimes witnessed,
and many articles of produce are GER
tainly lower. But inquiry among in
diyiduals has left the impression on our
mind that the markets have been mod
erately active in nearly all commercial
departments, and that the aggregate
amount of business in the channels of
legitimate trade is now probably as
large as usual at this stage of the sea-
son, but there is much less speculative
animation, and prices of most descrip-
tions of merchandise show a decline
from the earlier rates"

DRINKING HEALTHs.-A correspond
ent in speaking of the absurd custom
of drinking healths, says, with good
deal Of force:
"How in the name of common sense
and reason, do show an affection and
regard for my friend by pouring into
my own stomach that which oppresses
and distresses nature, and which nature
does not want? Or what sense is there
in my drinking his health while 1 am
destroying my own? Drinking his
health! Why the very words are silly
upon the face of them, if man will
but stop to consider their meaning
How can 1 possibly drink another
mans health? 1 may wish his health,
or 1 may pray for his health; but that
has no rational connection with my
drinking. 1 might as well dance his
health, or whistle his health, for any
real connection between the means and
the end"
