THE STEAMER S. exploded several
years ago with terrible effect, and
burned to the waters edge. Captain
S. was blown into the air, alighting
near floating bale of cotton upon
which he floated uninjured, but much
blackened and muddied. Arriving at
last at village several miles below, to
which news of the disaster had preced-
ed him, he was accosted by the editor
of the village paper, with whom he was
well acquainted, eager for an item:
Il say, is the S. blown ups
"Yes.n
"Was Captain s. killed 7"

press, and not wishing to omit the
item of intelligence for the next issue,
two weeks of, he wrote as follows

TIos sETTLEp.-Two young medical students
were disputing the other day at the house of
mutual friend, al to the nature Of dyspepsia:
One said the primary cause was diseased

mated in the epigastrium. II can tell you
what dyspepsia is, for I've been there, OBJ

Aimless Education.

Here is rich mans son, who has
been educated at great expense and
pains, who has graduated from college,
and has come out a gentleman. He
has studied, not with view of fitting
himself for any vocation in life, but
with the view of being a gentleman.
Soon, his father breaks down; and he,
when he is about twenty-five years Oh,
finds himself poor mans son, and de-
pendent on his own exertions. And he
says to himself, "What shall / do for
a hvlng?" He asks his feet, and his
feet say, 81 do not know" He asks
his hands, and they say 81 do not
know y He asks his head, and it says,
"Inever learned anything about how
to get living" There is but one
man who can befriend this poor wretch
and that is the sexton. Could any
thing be more useless than such a per
sont Could there be anything more
pitable than such histories! And yet
they are occurring every day.

letter from pari,

A PRIVATE letter from Paris brings
to our notice curious case Of what is
called the irony of history. The Great
Exhibition of 1851 was supposed to be
the Inauguration Of period of perpet-
ual peace. A large collection Of French
wheats was sent to it by order of the
National Assembly. After the Exhibi
ton these samples were stored for the
benefit Of the curious in the galleries
of the Conservative DIES Arts ct Meters.
The directors of the museum aud their
families, and the sick and wounded (for
whom beds had been prepared IN the
building), have lived through the latter
portion of the siege upon good white
bread made out of the samples nbove
mentioned.

Two WAYS of Getting "Drawed. !,
The Office Of a dentist in this city is situated
in the same building with a photograph gall
Iery, and the entrance to both being through
the same hall. the dental rooms are often IN
vaded by those wishing TO get "struck." Now
the doctor is a capital hand at drawing, but
his special forte is teeth rather than pictures.
and when he has applications to transfer beau
tv to pastebord he is obliged to decline. The
other day man with three promising sons.
from the rural districts, appeared in the Office
and sanguinely enquired ''if they could be put
in a frame?" Now, the doctor is the most
accommodating person in the world, but to grant
such request was simply impossible, SO he
answered the man according. A shade of deep
disappointment passed over the face of the
expectant visitor, and he wanted to know of
they didn't draw ikenesses here, as he wanted
to git stuck in frame and thought this was
picture shop" A happy thought occurred
TO the doctor, and with an eye to business. he
informed his caller that he could dra,o his
teeth but not his likeness. The suggestion
worked like charm, and had the effect to re-
mind the farmer that he had tooth that
needed drawing, and down he sat, while the
doctor drct0ed to the eminent satisfaction of
Of all concerned. The picture seeker followed
the directions given him, as to where he could
get "struck, y after his own inimitiable direc--
tions.

Our Park.-There is no duty which an
editor has to perform, SO unpleasant as that
which compels frequent re-iteration of one
subject. In doing this he incurs the displeas-
ure of many who pronounce him fault find
er, and the suggestions inconsiderate and un-
wise. Be this as it may, and while we have
no occasion to speak complainingly of the
general condition of our city, yet there are
places where improvements could and should
be made. We have several times referred to
the deplorable condition in which our city
park is allowed to remain. If it is neither
necessary nor desirable why did our city go
to the expense of enclosing it with new
fence, when it could SO easily have been con
verted into common. 1t is now nicely
fenced, well shaded by handsome growing
trees, but beyond this is nothing but pasture
and occupied exclusively by the Sheriff for his
horse. Now, we don't suppose that the Sheriff
intended to trespass upon our public park, but
unquestionably mistook it for public pas
ture, kept for the use of county officers, and
such strangers wodd invariably conclude it to
be in passing. 1t is not large, it is true, but
there is abundant room for walks and seats
and for well kept lawns, making it place
attractive and ornamental and much fre-
quented, whereas now no one ever thinks Of
walking within the gates.

Anew words to the Ladies,

Many ladies, particularly mothers nursing, COM
plain of tired, istless feeling, or complete ex-
haustiOn, on arising in the morning. On the
wife and mother devolyes the responsibility of
regulating the duties of the household. Her cares
are numerous, and the mental as we'll as the phys
ical powers frequently called into requisiton.
She aften finds her slightest occupation weary
task and existence bulden, while at the same
time she has no regular disease. Hostetters
Stomach Bitters if resorted to at this period, will
prove an unfailing remedy for this annoying las
situde. The effects of this potent agent are soon
seen the rosy cheek and elastic step of the head
of the family, as with restored health and renewed
spirits she takes her accustomed place in the fam
lily circle: If this friend in need be regularly used
those depressing symptoms will never be COM
planned of, and not only would lsssitude not be
experienced, but many diseases following its ad-
vent be avoided. As q medical agent it has no
equal, while its pleasing flavor and healthful
effects have made it general favorite. It is free
from ali properties calculated to impair the sys
TEN, and its operations az once mild, soothing
and efficient. All who have used the Bitters at
test its virtues and commend its use.

Look Out Boys.--We know that youth
ful eyes look longingliy upon ripe cherries and
luscious peaches, on red apples and water
melons, and the desire to possess the same be-
comes an irreI ,ressible fever, which impels
boys to risk an unceremonious shaking by a
big dog, or a Wholesome cudgeling by the ow-
ner of the pr operty. The law of W1eaam ct
tuatn', has n ever conneced itself with fruit in
their eyes, but rather the mistaken supposition
that posses ion carries with it the ownership
And it mu be confessed that, until recently.
the civil ls was about as derilect in this
matter as the perverted ideas of the boys, and
offered no protection to the fruit grower
against Il fle rapacity of boys or men, who often
wantOnEy visited fruit fields and carried of
property of value.-often times destroying
more u IAN was carried of. The Legislature
has, however, taken a step forward, and a law
on th statute book, recognizes the right Of
property, and deals out a harsh penalty to
these caught SteGzing-that is the word
stealing the fruit produced by the combined
capital and labor of the owner, assisted by the
hand of the nature. We published the law in
full in last weeks paper, and give here a sy-
nopsis:
After reciting iu relation to cutting Or car
rying away timber, &c, from lands belonging
to another, the law provides that any one who
''shalI pluck of, or carry away any cultivated
root, or plant, fruit, or any other vegetable
production, standing or growing on or at
tached to lands of another" "shal be guilty
of Iarcency, and on conviction thereof, shall
be adjudged to make restitution to the party
two-fold the value of the property so taken,
in and shall befned in any sum not exceeding
two hundred dollars, or shall be imprisoned
/ in the county jail, in dungeon or cell thereOfi
and shall be fed on bread and water only, moi
exceeding thirty days, and shall be adj judged
to pay the costs of prosecution"
The penalty may seem pretty severe but it is
right. Citizens pay taxes to government fol
protection, and every species of property is
! entitled to protection from the wantonness or
| viciousness of depredators. Let owners who
miss their fruit watch until they catch the
| depredators, and then have them dealt with
| according to law, and it will soon have the
! effect of producing a f'new departure" in Their
ideas, and they may come to realize the fact
that it is wrong TO take or carry off the poper-
ty of others, no matter in what that property
consists,
