 OK SUNDAY last party of Miners from San Francisco started for the Burro Mines
 THAT SPRINKLER A couple of enterprise ing individuals observing fair opening through which to toaccumulate some greenbachs, set to work to put the scheme into practise After speculating upon the issues pro and con, one fobbed book and pencil aud stai ted forth to ascertain what the public though of the project. Well, the public admiration amount ed to about $2O0 per mouth, SD they pro- nounced it success. 4 few days afterward the peoples eyes were opened with wonder to witness, according to all appearance, first class sprinkler showering water all over the streets; bat the thing must be improved to be perfect, and so it WAS improved-negadvely. This effort rendered further improvements necessary, and further improvements were accordingly made; and so lhe thing progress ed from bad tU worse until 1t became one of the IT ost novel humbugs that ever put in an appearance on our streets. Rendered worth less by successive improvements the thing was at length remodeled and Is now somewhat better than an ordinary w4tering-pot
 THAT SEREXADE What delightful thing it is to be serenaded Yes sir Just fancy a solitary individual, about 10 o'clock a. m,, dreaming Of dirty proof-sheets,' 'pi," plotted manuscript, ink, &c, when all of sudden he is standing erect upon the floor, with every hair standing on end be has been serenaded; the l first notes which reach his ears stand him upon the floor, he knows not how; but there he stands in mortal terror. He thinks of coyotes, but no; coyotes can't scream so uch after the manner larger and more ferocious brutes. Suudry other perls suggest themselves; so hs proceeds to the door and opens it to ascertain, l if possible, the nature of the animals he is rushed upon by a dozen or more "boyS of the period"; he endeaVois to escape to bed when l ful-sIzed broean comes down on ns bare foot tearing all before 1t from the instep 10 the great toe but them 1t was a serenade. Apol0- gles fail to alleviate suffering music ditto. He begins 10 consider danger less than it would have been had the invaders been coyotes or other carnivora, so he dresses under protest and makes up his mind that serenading should have fallen into disuse Immediately after the fall of the inquisiton.
