AN INGRATE'-The worst case Of in
gratitude we ever heard of is that one of
the victims of the Minnesota fire, which
caused such devastation. A kind-hearted
citizen of Detroit sent bundle of his cast

and one ofthem, who got pair of his pants,
wrote to him, in recognition of the gift,
in the following ungrateful strain:

other things what he called pare of pants,

SHASTA COURIER.
The Moral OF ..Othello.o

When John @. Adams was President, he
was travelling "incog' through New York
State and never having seen Chancellor
Kent, concluded to give him call. He
reached his house quite late in the evening,
and without sending up his name was ush-
cred into the library, where the Chancellor
was busy reading. He looked up from his
book, requested his unknown visitor to be
seated, and resumed his reading. After
looking around for a few minutes, the Pres
ident addressed the Chancellor, and the
following conversation ensued.
"I see you have great many books
here," said the President.
s,Yes."

President, shave you ever read it?"

"Do you know the moral of Othello ?"
"Certainly every one knows the moral
of Othello," said the Chancellor.
"Well, what is it I" said the President
"Why, to beware of jealousy, &c"
"No, sir, you are wrong"
"What is it then ?" said the Chancellor,
greatly surprised.
"The moral Of Othello," said the Presi-
dent, ''is, that white woman must not
marry black man."
At doctrine SO novel, and moral so
original, the Chancellor concluded that his
visitor was an escaped lunatic, SO he ran to
the door, civilian! William! (his sony
come up here, there is a crazy man in my
room" AS soon as John @. could suf6-
ciently control his laughter to speak, he
introduced himself, and the Chancellor then
had some doubts as to his own sanity.

View of DR.. Uuston on the Ears

Letter from Laura Ream to the Missouri Democrat
Speaking of SHINING and being sinned
against, on my way home or the Balti-
more and Ohio route, was told that DIR.
Huston was on the train. Turning my
head, he was pointed out to me. He was
seated in the rear end of the coach with
his back to the front. By his side was a
lady closely veiled-hiswifc. He was en-
gagged in reading, and had the air of not
taking in the sense of what was before
his eyes. l noticed minutes passed with
out his turning page. Innocent or gull
ty, there was everything i'll his appearance
to indicate a miserable man. He looked
neither to the right nor left, and talked to
people without raising his eyes. He talk
ed considerably to his wife, and seemed to
be pointing to the scenery. But l doubt
if their worst misery hereafter be not each
others society.
1t is impossible to give very correct
idea of a man who does not look at one,
but as far as outward seeming goes, he is a
man about five feet ten inches in height,
and squarely built, with an appearance of
having lost flesh. His clothes hung loose
ly upon him, or were i'll the first place.
an abominable fit. Apparently over fifty
years of age, he has the dragging step and
gate of three score and ten. His hair
which was originally brown, is pretty we'll
mixed with gray, and his beard, which he
wears long, is bordered and underlaid with
gray, the surface varying from brown to
fox and blasted yellow. He wore an old
black straw hat which, when removed
revealed large head and narrow forehead,
the nose being on a straight line from the
bridge to tip. 1t was the nose of bon Vi-
rant without being red and then there
was no particular expression in the mus
tached mouth. The pale, round blue eyes
were cold and dead, and there was altogeth-
er i'll the face, and limp, nerveless hands,
the personitication of under the ban. He
may rally, but there seems nothing to him
but to die
He was accompanied by sleek brother
i'll the Lord. who was painfully watchful
of his comfort and guarded him strictly
from intrusion. The curiosity of the fel-
passengers was manifested by each
walking back to look at him, which was
enough of itself to have embarrassed an in
nOCent man.
