A Dutchman's Joke.

We had German American fclow-citi-
zen, by the name of General Willch-and
good soldier, too by the way, 1t was
about the time of the battle of Stone River,
when one day Captain Allen, of General
WIS staff came riding up to his headquar-
ters, and the following conversation ensued
"Vell Caupitain said the General, in a
jolly mood, "voJ is der news nit der
frontsP' go, not much of any news,
General only a little Smelling going on"
The General jumped ON his feet, all excite
ment, and staff officers and orderlles gath
cred around to hear the news, while GeH-
eral Which exclaimed: Scholling schell-
ing vot schelling? Vot ish der damageY'
go, not much damage, General it was
only the boys "shelling" little corn for
their horses" To say that this called out
laugh is drawing it mild. 1t would have
brought the house down had there been any
house there to bring down. The General
laughed as heartily as the rest, exclaiming,
"Dot ish coot, dot is some funs r.
A little while after, General Harker,
upon whose staff / then had the honor to
be serving, rode over to Wllich's head
QUARTERS, and General, W., no doubt think
ing it good opportunity to air his joke,
replied, in answer to General Harker's
question. "Well, Which, what is the
newsqn go, veil, Shenencral, dare bees
not much newz-only der poys bees schelling
leedle corn for der horses" He looked at
us as much as to say, "now is the time for
the laugh to come in" and himself broke
into a boisterous "Ha ha ~ which came
to very sudden termination when he saw
that we did not join him. The officers
who had been present at the former scene
had by this time put in an appearance,
by the Generals merriment, and scratching
his head in much perplexity, he exclaimed:
"By dunder dare vas Something's funny
apout dat ven hears him, put don't not
see we're der laugh comes in alretty, aint
it?" About that time he found out.

ORDINANCE VIOLATIONS. - Acting
Police Justice Crew evidently believes with
President Grant that the best and speediest
way to get rid of bad law is to enforce it
rigidly. We do not mean to say that the
ordinances under which cases arose this
morning are all bad but determination
to enforce the enactments of the Council is
certainly manifested by Mr.. Grew. ~
We note several cases by way of warn
ing violators Of what they may expect.
One citizen was fined % for turning on the
gas after it had been turned off by the gas
inspector. One saloon keeper was fined
$40 for failing TO have his license posted
conspicuously in his place of business, and
another was fined in like sum for keep
ing his bar-room open on Sunday. A
woman was fined 50 for throwing filth into
the streets. The owner of horse was
fined 81 for allowing the animal to run at
large in the streets. A rider was fined SO
for racing his horse through the streets.
Another person was fined 81 for rolling
wheel-barrow on the sidewalk. And the
owner Of dray number $3.50 was fined 81 in
consequence Of the driver negligently going
to sleep and allowing his vehicle to come
in contact with a buggy and tearing it to
pieces. -.... t.a..--, s+--... .H....

my goods, struggled into one of the largest
groceries in the city; and the obliging pro-
prietor actually sold him fifty pounds of
sugar and thirty pounds of coffee at precise
ly the same figures he charged me for three
barrels sugar and two sacks coffee the day
before. Wanting some dry goods, he then
went into the house, where buy also, and
stated that he wanted three yards of do
nestle, one yard of drilling, two yards of
calico, and one yard of bed ticking. But
the prroprietors very positively informed
him that their trade was to merchants
exclusively, and they could not cell to q
farmer under any circumstances.
Now wasn't this the proper step to pur-
sue? Suppose they all came to this deter
minatiof! The wholesale merchant would
thereby be enabled to sell the retail mer-
chant more goods, and in not such small
quantities. | omitted to state that this
farmer tried several retail houses, and find
ing that the dry goods could be bought ofme
at about the same figures, came home and
bought them of me; and had the grocer
acted in the same manner, would have
also sold him his groceries.
We retailers must have small profit,
but if the aoholeS0le merchants fill every
order for few pounds of groceries at whole
sale prices, ask how is it possible for the
country merchant to do any business ? He
cannot afford to buy anything, and conse-
qnently, as | stated before, the trade of
Richmond will necessarily be retail bust
ness. Wholesalers ponder this thing seri-
ously, and you will at once perceive your
error. Refuse to sell except in quantities,
and your trade will be greatly increased.

CoLoEED Boy SHoT.-This morning
two colored boys, named Timothy Dabney
and Henry jackson, each about twelve
years of age, were employed in sweeping
out the Academy of Music. Henry jack
son picked up musket which he found in
the room, and was engaged in inspecting it
when Dabney told him to lay it down, as
it might be loaded. jackson at this point
ed the gun at Dabney and snapped it
twice. The gun was discharged, the entire
contents entering the foot and ankle Of
Dabney, causing most terrible wound.
Amputation will most certainly be neces-
sary, if it does not prove fatal. AS soon as
Jackson saw what mischief he had done he
ran out of the Academy, and as soon as
he got into the street, raised the cry of
"Catch that boy!" He ran down Locust
alley, and for the present made his escape,
notwithstanding several persons were after
him. Dabney was taken to the medical
college for treatment, and placed under the
care of DR.. Carter. .i'"5 NJ
