An Uuceremonious Undertaken.

There is upon our long list of acquaint-
ances a long, lean, lank fellow, who
though " a hard 'un TO look at" has a
perfect mania for playing practical Jokes
and little does it concern HIM whether
they are of gay or grave character,
and he is equally indifferent upon the
subject of whether the victim be an &C
ouaintance or an entire stranger.
One OF Joe's latest jokes was played
off upon a stranger, who came into the
city by the Jackson train during the re-
cent yellow fever scare.
The cars had emptied out their cargo
of passengers, and one greenish, coun.
try.looSing chap stood apart from the
crowd, with carpet-bag in hand, evil
pently at loss as to what he should do
with himself. He had not stood long
before Joe went for him."
Five feet nine high twoteet eleven
across the breast, eighteen inches
through said Joe, looking the new ar
rival as straight in the face as his crook
ed neck would allow, not cracking a
smile, and drawing from his pocket a
tape line with which he was about to
verify his estimated measurement.
Hdl w yOu nC"h' Sii N'SSAAy
inquired the stranger.
"Why, its all right said Joe, put
ting the tape line back in his pocket.
You measure five feet nine, by two
feet eleven by eighteen. It'll be ready
for you by 9 o'clock in the morning"
"What have you to do with my meas
urement. sir? What is to be ready by
9 o'clock in the morning, sir ? What
are you driving at, sir? inquired the
countryman, excitedly and angrily.
"Why, you see," said he, /" Pm the
city undertaken, and the yellow fever is
killing the strangers off SO rapidly that
/ have to get their measure as they
come into the city. If didn't, you see,
sir, the dead bodies would accumulate on
my hands"
AT this an unusual pallor came over
the features of the. countryman his
whole body was in a culver, and turning
to the baggage-master, he said: " Look
here, mister Check my baggage up the
road !''-Ne,0 Orleans Picayune.

The Nature of an Oath.

Early in the rebellion when the Fed
eral forces were stationed at Beaufort,
5. c., there was an old darkey by the
name Of Lige Jackson, who, deserted
by his master, was left to take care of
himself as best he might Lige was
considered chat Of weak intellect,
and, moreover, he was exceedingly awk.
ward in his attempts to play the role Of
house'servant. He smashed and de.
stroyed pretty nearly everything he laid
his hands upon, and, having waited
upon nearly every officer at the post,
each in turn, after giving him the benefit
OF good cursing for his stupidity,
turned him adrift.
1t happened that Lige was witness
in a case that came before court mar
tial, and, being called up to give his tes-
timony, was objected to on the part of
the defendant, who stated that he didn't
believe the'nigger was of sound mind
i" Stand up Lige," said the Court.
Do you understand the nature of an
oath?'
Lige scratched his wool for moment,
and then turning up the whites of his
eyes, replied: look a yeare, marse;
dis niger had waited on bout hat de
ossifers since dey fus cum TO dis place,
an if he don't stand de nature of an oaf
by dis time, den dare no wirtu in GUS
sing
The Court considered Lige a compe
tent witness.

A Tight Squeeze.

The plea of Mr.. Whittemore, urged
so disastlo usly to his client by General
Butler, that the cadet money all went
to the poor, has revived the story OF the
miller who sometimes had crazy fits, in
which he always imagined himself to be
the Lord judging the world.
On these occasions he would put on a
paper crown, ascend pile of meal bags
with great dignity, and call his neighbors
in succession. The same ones were al
ways judged, and these were the millers
in his vicinity.
The first summoned was Hans
Schmidt.
CLANS Schmidt slant opp!'

"Vos you yoost man ??
"Nell, ven de water vas low ind de

a little extra doles."
Veil, Hans, you shall go ofer nit de
goats already yet"
And soin succession all were tried and
Immediately sentenced to 90 over to the
goats.
Last Of all, the miller inevitably tried
himself in the following style;
-" Yacob, vat ish been your pishnes,

We'll, o Lort, ven Gle water vas a lee

After a long pause. Veil, Yacob
Miller, you can 90 over nit der sheep
but it vas a tam light Squeeze.'

singular Experience in Diphtheria.

The Lewiston Me- Journal says: DR..
Hill has in his possession q diphtheria
membrane removed from the throat OF
a girl of fifteen, who was attacked with
the severest type Of this terrible disease.
The false membrane is about three
inches in length, completely preserved,
and is perfect cast of the air passages
from which it came. The film is a
thick, white, tough, leathery substance,
presenting the well-known characters
ties observed in attacks of thAs disease.
The girl and her sister came to this city
from the eastern part OF the state to
work in the mills, and was unweli on
her arrival. She went to work one day,
however, when she was taken down Ill
with diphtheria. The usual treatment
in such cases was resorted to, but the
patient grew worse, and breathed with
great difficulty. On Sunday she had a
violent fit of coughing, and seemed to
be strangling. The nurse who had
charge of her had the presence OF mlnd
to put her finger down the girls throat,
and seized the end of something which
appeared loose there, and pulled out
what proved to be the false membrane
of which we have spoken. The pres
ence of mind of the nurse saved the
girl who is recovering.

The House Attire.

A gentleman once offered to bet that
he would empty the whole of a good
winter fire in drawing-room out of the
CRATE, and place it upon the carpet in
the center OF the room, all the company
to be seated around it in q circle, and
that the room should not take fire.
Mr.. Braidwood, formerly Captain of the
London Fire Brigade, said that he would
have backed such bet and that the
fire in such case would probably have
died out OF itself. 1t is not very easy
to set fire to a house without first light
ing curtains or other articles that pro-
6uoe a lively flame This fact, however,
should not make us less careful respect
ing the causes of fires. Nearly all fires
can be managed at the outset by the
inmates of the house. BY shutting the
doors and windows, so as to prevent the
supply of air to the fire, and by reso-
lutely attacking the flames with water,
rugs or blankets, door. mats, etc., the
larger part of fires in dwelling-houses
may be smothered,
