his agency is accepted. If the Governor
and the Times and the Picayuee intend to
relieve US of this duty hereafter by select
ing our officers for U.s. and then refuse us
the poor privilege of quarreing about
them, life will be greatly simplifed in New
Orleans by being Invested Of half of its
most obnoxious duties. A notarial act
should be gotten up to certify this assump-
ton of authority on the part of our oracles
when they enter upon the discharge of
their fully developed functions. With
copy Of this in their pockets, the people
will then feel that they are discharged
from the consideration of political affairs,
and that come what may, the country can
not accuse them of any of her misfortunes.

/ There is no office within the gift of the

faction Of the disorganized opposition is
striving migh3 and main to obtain it.
Hitherto Mr.. Burke has proven the strong

A stupid Husband.

Riding horseback just at night
through the woods in Saginaw
county, Michigan, 1 came into a
clearing, in the middle of which
stood log house, its owner sitting
in the open door smoking his pipe.
Stopping my horse before him the
following conversation ensued:
"Good evening, SIR" said L.
"Good evening"
''Can get glass of milk of you
to drink?"
'cWell! 1 don't know. Ask the old
woman" -s--
BY this time his wife was stand
ing at his side.
While drinking it asked:
"Think we are going to get a
storm?"
"Well! I really don't know. Ask
the old woman-she can tell"
81 guess we shall get one right
away" said the wife.
"How much land have you got
cleared here2''
"Wel l don't really know. Ask
the old woman-she knows"
"AbOut nineteen acres" said she,
again answering.
Just then troop Of children came
running and shouting around the
corner of the shanty.
"All these your children" said 1.
"Don't know. Ask the old woman
she knows best.
didn't wait to hear her reply,
but drew rein, and left immedi-

Mark Twain lectured in Chicago

anecdote:
As Artemus was once travelling
in the cars, dreading to be bored and
feeling miserable, q man approached

''Did you hear that last thing on

"Greeley? Gree,ey?'' said Arte-

The man was quiet about five
minutes. Pretty soon he said:
George Francis Train is kicking
up a good deal OF row over in
England. Do you think they will
put him in a bastile?'
''Train2 Train? George Francis
Train?" said Artemus solemuly. Il
never heard of him."
This ignorance kept the man quiet
for fifteen minutes, then he said:
sEWhat do you think about Gener-

cy. Do you think they viii run

silver sPring.

This cup Of crystal water, which
bears the name of Crystal Spring,
has no streams running into il. The
fountains that furnish its waters
and form the river flOwi ing out OF it
come from below, aud burst up un-
der large ledges OF limestone rock
that form its bottom. It fills itself
to the brim, overtlOwing at a break
in the edge OF the cup. Owing 10
the uprush of this large stream,
there Is a constant undulatiOn i'm
parted to the whole mass of waters
that is never seen in lakes fed by
surface streams. The water seems
to vibrate, and this imparts a pecu-
liar appearance 10 everything seen
through it.
The ledges of white limestone
forming the floor of this cup are
each set in frame OF long, waving
green watergFass aud verdant moss,
whose vivid color and many shades
of green reflect The rays of the sun
as perfectly as in the open air. The
water is so perfectly transparent
that pearl button dropped on the
rocky floor can be as distinctly seen
as in the palm Of the hand. The
deep borders of long grasses undu-
late continually with the motion of
the water, and the limestone rocks
at the bottom assume the hue of
richly-burnished silver, tinged with
green. Myriads of fish of all kinds
aud sizes peculiar to this region, are
seen swimming and sporting in
these forests of grass and moss. 1t
is a pleasant sight to collect them a.
bout the boat and to see them scram-
bling for crumbs Of bread. The
trees around, cypress and moscow
cred live-oak, crowd the banks, and
thirstily dip their branches IN t-e
water.

things, but here have / ever seen

tenderness; and he at once cOmpre-

took a seat by her side.
"And you really care nothing for

DstestabIe.

If there is any one animal that is
particularly detestable, it is one of
your growlers. He growls at his
wife, aud children, at his grocer,
butcher, merchant and tailor. He
growls because his dinner is ready
and because il isn't ready. He
groWls when there are buttons on
his shirt and when there are no but
tons on his shirt; his coffee is not
sweet enough or it is too sweet; his
victuals are cooked too much, or
not cooked enough; the children are
too dirty or they are too clean, the
weather is too cold or too hot. His
growing Is heaviest at his newspa-
per--tbere is too -Inuch or not e.
nongh OF poetry in il; too much pol
itics or not enough; too much Of the
sensation or not enough, and 50 on
GA in fnitUBl. His growing is new
er ending, never ceasing, and when
he dies he viii get up big growl
at the devil for keeping such hot
fires during the warm weather.

KIND WORns.
How softly on the bruised heart
A word Of Kindness falls,

How softly on the bruised heart
A word Of kindness falls,
And to the dry and parched soul
The moistning tear drop calls;
Oh, II they knew who walked the earth
Mid sorrow, grief and pain,
The power 8 word Of Kindness hath,
'Twere paradise again.
The weakest and the poorest may
The simple pittance give,
And bid delight 20 withersd hearts
Return again and live;
Oh. what Is life If love be LOST
II mans unkind 10 man-
Or, Whist the heaven that waits beyond
This brief and mortsl span:
A stars upon the tranquil Sea
In minute glory shine;
- words Of Kindness in tie hesrf
Reflect the source divine;
Oh. then De Kind, whoe'er thou art,
That breathes the mortal breath,
Aud It shall brighten al thy life,
Aud sweeten even death
