HUMOROUS.
Hunting a Boarding House.

A few days since sprightly looking youth,
clad in the latest fashion and wearing de-
cidely gorgeous frill upon his bosom, applied
at a st. Charles street mansion for board
He was told by the servant that no boarders
were taken, but if he would apply further up
he could doubtless be accommodated. Not
satisfied with this information, he insisted
upon seeing the lady of the house. Notwith.
standing the request was somewhat imperti-
nent she went down, when the following con-
versatiOn ensued:
MADAM, you keep boarders ~
~ do not, sir ~
81 thought you did At all events YOU
will have no objections to keeping me p was
the self-satisfcd reply.
"Indeed. | should have very serious OBJ
jections sir "
"Why, I'm your daughters beau ~
"You are insolent, sir; l have no daughter"
"No daughter exclaimed the youth in
astonlshment. No daughter! Why, amt
that young lady with jesty curls, who wears
blue dress, your daughter ~ exclaimed the
young man, the Pcrspiration standing in thick
beads upon his forehead.
just then the individual alluded to passed
through the room, giving slight shrek when
che saw the applicant for board, and shaking
her head onlinously.
That's her; amt she your daughtcr?"
"NO, sir; that IS my guadroon seryant!?'
1t would be impossible to depict an e1-
hibition Of more utter despair than the picture
of the youth when this information was given
him. He sat for moment as if spell bound,
and then grOaned out:
'She told me she was your daughter, and
ran eli 'gh her and got n,orried!'
1t is needless to say the young man could
not see the point Of the lady's congratulations,
Notwithstanding they were preluse and ap.
pareRtly sincere. He left with the conviction
that he had been completely taken in and
done for.--Ne'c Orleans paper.

Death Of the Great occulist Of Europe

JUAN VI tnc vi oshL OCGAi4ok u
The telegram received a few days since
announcing the death of Won Graefe, the
great German OccuIist, has been confirmed
by Berlin letters. He died on the morning
o: the 2lsi of July, and 10 his death Prussia
has sustained los, that will be felt quite
as much as the loss OF q battle, for he stood
among occulists like Bismark among polti-
cIans-a head aud shoulders above them.
He died in the prime of life, at the age of
forty two, the chief occullst of the world.
Although the son Of rich father aud
inheritor of a large fortune, he eutered upon
his profession with great enthusiasm,
pursued it with energy and success, and
introduced many new processes. He was
the first to operate successfully ireide ctomy
and one OF the first TO briug the opmoscope
into use, when be commenced Practice
but two operations out of three for
cataracts succeeded. Now, nine out of ten
under his system succeed. He devoted q
large part of his inheritance and fees to
hospital for one or two hundred patient,
one third of whom were supported and
operated upon gratultousiy.
His fame was such, before he was thirty,
that the mobiles and crowned heads of Europe
came TO him for relief, and many patients
from America crossed the ocean to secure
his services. His course with his patients
was that OF a nObleman he never made
charge or presented bill. His patients
made their own estimates of his service. 1t
was usually liberal one by the rich, and if
by chance ANY one sent less than rea
sonsble, IL was al once returned.

drew students from all parts of Europe and
America and threw Paris and Vienna quite

with the flowers and bouquets they sent

THE CROPS ON THE THEATRE OF WAR.-A
more unfortunate time for the outbreak Of
hos,ilities could hardly have been selected.
The crops are nearly ready for the sickle,
and there is but sca2ty supply of labor.
Throughout the vast tract of country have
traversed, from the fertile valleys of the
Rhine and Moselle to the sandy plains which
encompass Berlin, the sight of Wing corn
fields was the one which uniformly met the
eve. Here and there few women were
cutting down the ripe grain, yet, in the
ma ority of the fields there were no signs of
the husbandman plying his necessary task.
In the vicinity of the Rhine the crops appear
to be unusually lnxuriant The drought. Of
which complaints are made here as else
where, does not seem to have proved very
injurious. 1t Is expected that the vintage
will be unexceptlonably good, provided an
opportunity is afforded for peacable pluck
ing the grapes. When gazing upon the
glorious promises of the prolific earth it is
almost impossible to realize the fact that
tremendous effort is being made to undo the
work which has been accomplished with
much toll, and to convert the smiling corn
fields and VINEYARDS into barren and
blackened battle ground.
