Mr. Prott occupies the second story, and his

The Ne,o Era is indignant because the Gov
ernor of Texas has appointed two eolored men
to fill aldermanic chairs in one of the counties
of that State. The Era, at the same time,
claims to be a friend to the colored people.
Consistency is jewel that is very often tram
pied upon
in looking over the last win and testament
of the late Mr.. John Bates, formerly wealthy
citizen of Cincinnati, we find that he has left
one of his brothers-in-law promise of $1,000.
The old gentleman was determined to have his
joke, even at the risk of disappointing the ex-
pectatons of a friend.
"A buxom young lady of Pekin, ILL.,, few
days since, secured divorce from her third
husband, and in seven hours later had started
on a bridal tour to the East with her fourth hus-
band The most remarkable circumstance con-
nected with the matter is that the courting pro-
posal and marriage of No. 4 were accomplished
within the time stated.
"A school commissioner of Troy, In addition
to having injured the head ofa brother commits
sioner during a free fight at recent board meet
ing, is now accused of having deserted the part
ner of his Joys and sorrows in order to take up
his residence with one less worthy. The Troians
feel themselves good deal scandalized in con-
sequence of the matter.
A male child is reported to have been re-
Gently born at Warren, r. l., with curly moss
of hair three inches in length, covering that part
of the head which, in females, is usually oceu-
pied by the chignon. The hair on the remainder
of the head is short, thin, and very light in
color. The fathers hair is red, and the mothers
brown.
An attorney of New Orleans has commenced
an action for libel against the defendant in a
case recently argued by him, in consequence of
words spoken and subsequently printed in the
newspapers. He looks for damages in the sum
of $50 The very modesty of the demand has
attracted good deal of attention to the case.
