KICKED BY MULE.--This little anecdote,
like many another good thing, is going the
rounds without credit. 1t would make any
man laugh who was not "given over to hard
ness of heart and a sour stomach;
Jake johnson had mule. There was
nothing remarkable in the mere fact of his
being the possessor of such an animal; but
there was something peculiar about this
mule. He could kick higher, hit harder on
the slightest provocaton, and act uglier than
any mule on record
One morning, riding bis property to mar
ket, Jake net Jim Boggs, against whom he
held an old but concealed grudge. lie knew
Boggs weakness lay in Dragging and betting;
therefore he saluted him accordingly
Glow are you, Jim? Fine morning"
"Hearty, SQUIRE" replied JIM "Fire
weather Nice mule that. Will he do to
bet on ?"
"Bet on? Guess he will. I tell you,
Jim Boggs, he's the best mule in this coun-
try"
'"Great smashl Is that so ?" calculated
Jim.
"Soid truth, every word of it. Tell you
con6dentially, jim, l am taking him to town
for betting purposes. I'll bet he can kick a
fly off from any man without hurting him."
"Now, look here, squire, said jim, "l'm
not betting character, but I'll bet you
something on that myself"
"Jim, there's no use; don't you bet. l
don't want to win your money"
"Don't be alarmed, squire; III take such
bets as them every time"
"Well, if you are determined to bet, l will
risk small stake-say five dollars"
"All right, squire, you're my man. But
who will he kick the fly off? Nobodys here
but you and l. You try him."
"No," says johnson, 81 have to be by
the mules head, to order him.
ooh, yes!" says Jim. "Then probably
am the man. Well, III do it; but you are
to bet ten against my five if risk it"
can right" quoth the squire. "Now,
JIM there's fly on your shoulder. Stand
still" And johnson adjusted the mule
"Whist, Jervey!" said he.
The mule raised his heels, and Boggs rose
in the air like bird and lit on all fours in a
muddy ditch by the roadside. Rising, in a
towering rage, he exclaimed:
eyes, that is smart mule! knew the
darned cuss couldn't do it. You had
that all put up. wouldn't be kicked
like that for fifty dollars. You can just fork
over them stakes for it anyway"
"Not SO fast, jim! Jervey did just what
I said he could--tbat is, kick fly off man
without its hurting him. You see the mule
ain hurt particle. However, if you are
not satisfied we will try it again..
"No, I'll be darned if we do!' growled
jim. 'I'd rather have barn fall on me at
once than have that critter kick me again.
Keep the stakes, but don't say anything
about it,"
And Boggs limped off in bitterness Of soul
murmuring, "Sold again, and kicked by a
mule!'

ABOUT DOLLY VAREEN.
From the Detroit Free Press. I

Daily Warden was very nice girl and a
very good girl. II it were otherwise they
wouldn't have named striped dress goods,
smoking tobacco, and agricultural implements
after her. She lived in London when she
lived, but she has been dead these many
years. Poo girl But. then we must all
pass away, and the greatest female of the
day may die next week, and the week after
her name go forth on a new bedticking or a
new patent scoop-shovel
Dolly's father was very humble man.
He hHs also been dead for some time; but he
hadn't any "Dolly" before bis name, and
consequently bis name won't be cherished.
lie was humble, but honest. If he had
been humble and dishonest he would have
been a remarkable man. He worked at the
smith business. The smith business has
grown since his time, as any city directory
will show, but Varden's relations didn't
claim any credit for it. Mrs. Warden died
when Dolly was mere infant Dolly grew
up as children often do. She had her strug
giles with rash, Group, measles, whooping
cough and such things, and got the better Of
them. When ten years old she was the
handsomest girl in London. Her father said
so, and he was qualified to judge. She con-
tinued to grow handsome as she grew older,
and at seventeen was an angel She had
forty admirers at this time, everyone of whom
insisted on sitting up with her on Sunday
night She had to range them around the
room and take her place in the centre and
"spark' them in rotation. None of them
were-lower than lord, and she hadn't it in
the heart to turn any one away. 1t was
probably this "sitting up" which killed her.
She hadn't pursued it more than forty nights
before she began to fade. She practiced
Indian clubs and dumb bells, ate oat meal
and prepared wheat, but the fend of death
could not be thwarted. Sitting up with forty
lords forty nights was the same as sitting up
with one lord for sixteen hundred nights.
Some American girls may wonder that she
broke down under it; but Dolly was angelic
aud frail
Dolly finally died She faded and faded
and the allopathy and homeopathy and cold
water doctors couldn't save her. The forty
lords attended the funeral in a body, each
one knowing that she would have married
him but for the unfortunate circumstance.
The fnneral was a grand affair, and everyone
did their best to make Warden enjoy it; bat
the poor man couldn't. He lined and faded
and in about twenty-five years bis heart
broke with grief, and he was laid beside his
daughter.
This is all-these are all the reasons for
"Doly Warden excitement in dry goods and
other goods. But these are enough. Any
young man who will deliberately swear that
he won't wear "Dolly Warden shirt bosom
any man who goes back on a "DollyVar-
den" cane-any farmer who won't buy a
'Dolly Warden" shovel-any hotel keeper
who won't have "DolIy Warden" puddings-
in fact, any one who will malicously sneer
at the poor dead girl, Or refuse to be "Dolly
hardened % ought to be shot with ceaver.

NO LOVE FOR THEM.

Henry Wilson, the man whom General
Grant has selected to run on his ticket for
Vice President, is evidently no loversof our
foreign born citizens. He was the leader OF
the Know Nothing party in Massachusetts,
and is the author of some of the btterest,
most vindictive, and withal untruthful trades
ever uttered against the foreigner who has
sought to make our land his land and our
laws his laws. In speech delivered in Bos-
ton in 1856 Henry Wilson used the language
we copy below:
'In the heart of the foreigner beats not sim
gle noble impulse, not one single throb of patri-
otism, He is so brutal and degraded that he has
no sympathy for anything but cabbage and lager
beer. potatoes and buttermilk or some other
outandsh dish, fit only for hogs of the street or
pen All the oaths in the world cannot bind
them"
''Son,e tell me that many foreigners are intelligent
yes, intelligenU Ho,o IN the name Of Almighty
God can they sag it3 Look at the Dutchmdn smoh-
ing his pipe, and if you see rag Of intelligence IN
that diriy idiotic looking face Of his, show II TO me
'sWe must CHANGE THE LAWS OF THE
LAND AND PREVENT THESE IGNORANT, DEGRA DED
pAUPERs HERE FROM VOTING AND HOLDING OFFICE
Villains and ruffians who congregate IN and
around our villages and large cities, and live by
stealing and begging from the Americans. some
THEY HAVE RIGHTS. so THEY HAVE-THE
RIGHT TO LIVE UNDER OUR LAWS AND TILL THE SOIL
AND DO AS WE BID. They are inferior in
intellect and intelligence to the Americans, and
then must and,shaH be put dorm AND KEPT DOWN
IF 1T HAS TO BE DONE AT THE POINT OF
THE BAYONET, AND WITH POWDER AND
LEAD"
The Iliberal organs have the impudence to
deny tIiti their candidate for Vice President
ever used this language. 1t is useless for
them to do so. Wilson himself does not at
tempt it. The speech is matter of record,
and the Congressional Globe contains nume-
rous speeches made by Wilson in which he
made not one but many attacks on the for
egn born citizen. This man now implores
the German "with his dirty, idiotic-looking
face" to aid in making him Vice President.
This man, who wants the laws of the land
changed to prevent fore gu born citizens.
whom he designates as ignorant, degraded
paupers," from voting or holding office. We
presume great many foreign born citizens
will vote the Grant ticket with the name of
the man who used the language quoted above
thereon for Vice President. We are aware
that political prejudice will do much-will
mpel men to acts which their Judgment cam
not indorse-but it seems incredible to us
that citizens who have become such by virtue
of the law which makes our land the home OF
all who seek il, can subdue their feelings to
the point which will enable them to vote for
Henry Wilson, Grants candidate for Vice
President. .-Stockton Republican.
