Local Intelligence.

A LITTLE RUsHER.-A little chunk of
curly headed humanity was deposited in
the first precinct calaboose Tuesday night
by his guardians, who declared their in
ability to make him walk in the straight
and narrow path. His name is Harry Hays,
his age about ten years, his size not larger
than big thumb, yet he contains more &C.
centric wickedness than the worst lived of
Dryades street. Being an orphan, in charge
OF woodworking people. he feels disposed
to run and ruin his chances in life by chew
ing tobacco. cursing and keeping late hours,
greatly TO the chagrin of his pious guard
ians. At their urgent request Recorder
Houghton will label him for close institu-
ton. where bad boys will soon teach him
that the way of the transgressor is hard

ton. Now have lost all, and have nothing
to live Of am sick, and not able to help
myself; and the floor of my house is partly
gone-my door is gone also-and am too
poor to replace it; and hope you will take
pity on poor widow lady, as l am old, and
not able to do much to help myself and re-
place my loss. MRS. MARY BRAXTON.
The following rather equivocal certificate
was appended to the document:
l certify that the old lady is reliable
one, and her loss is correct.
ERNEST LONGPRE.
The certifer is the same gentleman who
made claim on the authorities for losses
by the overflow amounting to $4,000, among
other items in which account was shuck

EDITOR REPUBLICAN,:


AS subscriber and constant reader of
your valuable paper from the first number,
ask you to correct the statement in yes
terday's issue announcing the reorganiza-
ton of the Fourth District Central German
Republican Club and my impeachment as
its president, which never took place. The
secretary having called special meeting,
without my consent and knowledge, to take
place last Monday, l did not deem it proper
to attend; and to impeaeh any man without
giving him chance to defend himself was
never heard of before. All the other Off
GERS of the club were there, and a commit
tee was appointed to investigate the pur-
ported charges against me, after which the
club adjourned regularly to some other day

The New York Herald saws:

The hop crop in England, it is feared, will
be failure. According to our cable dis
patch, all accounts concur in predicting a
small yield. High-priced beer is tantamount
to calamity to the British mind. The Eng
lishman of the lower order must have his
beer and his grumble; but if bereft of the
sedative stimulant his grumble would be apt
to lose balance, shift tor itself and seek
vent in such dangerous pastimes as reform
agitations, riots and revolutions

Tuesday night, and it is thought that Maria

set the fire with evil intent. Fortunately
smoke was discovered issuing from room

FROM HIS SHoULDER.-Captain Mccain,
third precinct, carries two strong arms of
flesh not altogether unconnected with a
healthy body, and he can shoot out his left
or right in scientific style when needful.
Having been called on by Mr., and Mrs.
Wenger, Bourbon street, to squelch Tom
killilea, who had insulted them in their
own domicile, the captain proceeded to
perform his duty, not suspecting Interrupt
ton from any source. James Foley, friend
of Killilea, proposed to assist the culprit
q out of his difficulty. but the officer put in a
denial and his dexter at the same moment.
Foley went to grass, suddenly followed by
the insulter, after which the PAIR took a
leisure look at the calaboose, only to have a
short conversation with Recorder Staes,
who gave them their deservings.

eat two-quart pitcher of shrimps, heaped
up, and wash them down with a bottle of
champagne. He did it, and at a late hour
last night his body had not been inter
