4 Cupital Joke.

HNHM New Jersey Patriot tells the fol-
Il lowing story, which it says is all the
more palatable because it is true and can
be vouched for. II took place u few Sun
days since at one of the prominent 4th
street churches.
1t seems chat worthy deacon had been
very industrious in selling new church
book, costing IS cents. At the services
in question the minister, just before dis
missing the congregation, rose and said
All you who have children to baptize
will please present them next Sabbath"
The deacon, who, by the way, was Il
little deaf and having an eye to selling
the books, and supposing his pastor was
referring to them, Immediately jumped
up and shouted:
g All you who haven't any, can get as
many as you want sy calling on me, at
70 cents each"
The preacher looked cross-cyed at the
brothers, the brothers looked al the cler-
gyman, the audience punched each other
in the side, the bubble grew larger
until it burst into large guffaw. Ladies
colored up, crimsoned, blushed and then
thanked the Lord ior the low price of
peopling the earth.
There was no benedic:ion that morning
worth speaking of. The deacon, after he
found out his mistake, changed his pew
from the front Of the church to the
third from the rear and though he can
not hear the sermon. he is consoled with
the thought that the young ladies cannot
snicker at him.

Involuntary Suicide.

A gentleman was recently lound dead
N in his bed at hotel in New York
City with "a hole through his body, made
by pistol ball the circumstances po-
sition of the body, ETC., goiug to show
that the man shot himself while asleep,
and therefore unconscious of what he was
doing. The body, it appears, was care
fully covered up to the chin, proving that
the pistol must have been fired under the
sheets, and also from the left hand. No
possible cause for the suicide-if such it
was--could be assigned and it is sup
posed he was under the influence of
vivid dream. In support of this theory,
Il New York paper mentioned an instance
where gentleman came very near kill
ing his wife one night through dream
in which he saw himself in the act of
shooting burglar. He awoke just as he
was about to pull the trigger, and, to his
horror, found himself standing by the
side of the bed, with the weapon cooked
in his hand, leveled at the head of his
wife. Had he killed her. but few persons
would have believed the truth of his
protestations of innocence of murder.
Instances similar to this are not, we be-
lieve, without occasional mention in the
annals of crime. nor yet entirely unknown
to jurisprudence.

The district attorney gave me a trium-
phant wink; and when he stated to the
court that he desired the witness to be
detained till the close of the trial, the
sheriff was directed to take charge of
him. Mr.. Caleb Wye came down from

took a seat by the sheriff, looking decided

Mr.. Peasants was now loudly called
for by Che defence; but no one came for

heard nothing more OF this affair for
several weeks. Then o letter from the
district attorney, thanking me for the as
sistance | had rendered him, conveyed
more details.
The witness Wye" he wrote, whose
real name is Nicholas Bray, was
indicted for perjury. A very slight in
yestigation showed me that we could
prove that he had no right to the name of
Wye, that neither he nor any man by
the name af Peasants ever kept store in
Norcott, and that neither of them was
known there at all This, with your evil
dence, would have been sufficient to con-
Wet him; and understanding it as well as
anybody, he concluded to save trouble
and plead guilty. So he and Slifer are
both in the penitentiary, and will stay
there for tenn of years.

Doing her Duty.

During the war says the Boston Times,
Shere was little girl, and she always felt
" like she was in Gregory" because she
lived there. Writing to II Northern
friend one day. she remarked that there
was u wounded Yank at their house. and
that she was going to izen him. Wri-
ting again, she said that there were south
ern girls everlasting going" Tor these
bluc-coated Yanks, but she for one would
never be subiugated, anG she would
never speak to them no more. Another
letter said that the wounded Yank who
was stopping at her house, was getting
along finely, and she hated to kill him,
but she knew her duty. There were sew
eral letters after that and the last one
concluded Il BY the way, dear, that
wounded Yank wants 20 marry me, and l
have finally determined to let him do so,
and pizen him afterward l think / know

It has been customary heretofore to en-
gage on first class naval steamers from six
to eight and on secondclass from four TO
six assistant engineers, whose fitness for the
responsible duties deyolving upon them In
managing the engine and boilers has been
certified BY proper examining boards. When
We reflect that the safety Of vessel and crow,
as we'll as the preservation Of costly ma
ehlnery, depend upon the skill and courage
Of the engineer, too much Importance can
not be attached to tho measures adopted for
elevating the tone and infuslng q proper
sense Of selfrespect and responsibility into
the engineer corps. Yet II ls said that since

which has now been completed and agreed
upon, and which will be introduced as soon

those who have adopted the habits Of elvlll-
ration, those who have made some progress
In civilization, and those who roam about

chase. It divides the whole Indian country
into four superintendencies, appoints agents
within those superintendcncles, and requires
them to reside within the limits Of their
agencies. 1t directs the President 10 enter
into negotiation for the abrog Ition u GER

Of certain tribes within reservations, and
for their protection therein. II prevents the
alienation Of lands by Indians, and author
