Who paid for that powder?


PERsoNAL.-Our city Clerk, F. W. Beckman
has been heavily afflicted the past week, BY
the loss of his wife, most affectionate com
panion, and an estimable woman.
SENATOR HOWE was in this city on Satur'
day of last week. He was on his way from
Washington to his home at Green Bay, and
called upon his nephew, Col. James FL. Howe
of Kenosha.
VIM. A. Gerken, well known to the citizens
of Kenosha is in town.
Hon. Mark Dresser after trip through
the east, has returned home, looking well.
From flock of % yearling ewes Cots
wolds), Mr.. VIM. Rhodes, of the Brighton
Farm, in this county, got an average of elev-
en- pounds of wool each. Can any one in the
state beat that a?

A TOUCHING INCIDENT.-In speaking ofthe food
which was so disastrous in several sections of
Virginia, the LynchbUTgh papers send the follow
ing sad event: mother and several little chill
dren were making their escape from narrow
neck of land, which lies between the river and
the canal, ween they were amazed to find that the
bridge was already gone, and that their only hope
was to cling on to the abutment of the bridge un'
til the angry waves should subside. But as they
stood there clinging to the abutment the waters
nued to rise higher and higher, while in the
deep darkness they could hear the crashing of
trees amid the thunders of bridge timbers that
were wildly dashlng all around them. They had
been in this desperate condition for some time,
when the little girl felt that her strength was
gone, and with wild shrek OF terror she exclam-
ed, kiss me, mother, for can't hold any longer!
And, with the warm pressure of that mothers lips
upon her cheeks, she was swept away and was
seen no more.

q new foundry the other day, discovered two
Indian graves From the number and char
acter of the utensils found in the graves,
they were vidently the remains Of chiefs.
Those who are well posted in Indian history

HYDRoPHoBIA.-A few weeks ago we call
ed attention to the fact shat the dogs had
been relieved OF their wire cages, and ex-
pressed sErprise at what we then thought
was q dangerous proceeding. Since then we
have learned that the common opinion con-
corning canine madness, that 1t is most prev
alent in The summer time, san old iogey no
tion; and as some ofsour readers may enter"
tain 1t, we give them q new idea In place OF
the old enc. From the +, cords kept at the
famous veterinary school of Abort near Paris,
1t appears that twice or three times as many
cases ofhydrophobia occur in April, Noysm
Der, and December, as in June, July. and
August. Canine madness is most prevalent
notin the hottest but III the wettcst months,
aud the summer months arc just tie period
of the year when 1t is least common.

bath School scholars and the pieces sung
were selections from those sung at the Sab

Iy become popular and generally draw full
houses. The church on the present occasion
was filled with music loving audience and
ali seemed to enjoy the music and to be well
pleased OF the musical performances we
cannot speak except to say that we in COM
mon with Others enjoyed the music. And
the enjoyment and satisfaction of an audi
ence is pretty good evidence that the music
is well rendered. Miss Louie Yule presided
at the organ, enc conducted the accompani.
ments in a manner highly creditable to her.
self. with satisfaction to the scholars, and
pleasure to the audience.
For change and variety the music was in
tiers persed with remarks by Rev. Mr.. Hender-
son, pastor of the Baptist Church. the con-
cert had one rare merit. It was not pro-
Ionged beyond an hour and quarter, and,
notwithstanding the heat Of the evening, it
was brought 10 a close without fatiguing

The Contrabandist

Travellers tell some strange tales, and

was travelling in upper Alsace
In journeyIng from Phlt tO Basle ! Jaw
at distance 81 about two hundred PAGES
from me a large dog leave the road, and
enter the brushwoUd The dog belonging
to my companion, a native Of Alsace. Was
about to follow the strange dog, but was
recalled by his master
No, no, you must leave him alone, ne
is on duty it does not do 70 interrupt
business
looked to him for an explanation of the
mystery conveyed in his words He then
told me that dogs were trained u bring
smuggled goods, such a. watches, &c,
from Switzerland into Alsace BY means Of
kind Of saddle fastened tO the back THE
manner Of training the dog was this
The dog is well fed at home, and then
after a while led across the border " the
village where he is 10 receive his load. He
is shut up some days without food. and
moreover beaten by man dressed in the
uniform Of custom-house official As
soon as the dog is set at liberty he natur-
ally starts for home at a double-uuick pace.
On the way, that is ON the high road,
which ne is pretty sure to take, people are
stationed with whips, or guns loaded with
peas, which are fired at him, until he learns
to take refuge from all strange men in the
brushwOod. Two or three such lessons
are sufficient to make the sagacious animal
comprehend what is required Of him, and
he then becomes the best contrabandist
going. Six dogs can thus support their
master.
