A gentleman Of this city was asked BY
his two little daughters what a platitude
was. He told them it was something
that everybody knew One Of the girls
said that yankee Doodle" must be

A reporter for New York paper has
been Intervening George Wilkes on the
subject of his opposition to the re-elec-
ton Of Grant. In the course OF the
conversation Wilkes referred to the
President as "a sordid, grasping, greedy
money-getting man." who "lcoks upon
the Presidency as if he had won 1t at a
rattle This opinion is chiefly vaiu-
able as showing what one horse-j jockey
thinks of another.

his responsibility; he may go about his
business. She is to be markswoman
she will send the ball to its mark with
the same unerring precision as now she
does the end of thread through the eye
of a fine'cambric needle. She will alone
in the darkness safely traverse the high
ways and byways of the city. Bloody
corpses of imprudently forward men
