A Mid-Air Compromise.

bi Not many. years ago, and not far from the
city Of Eimira, at locality known as the
"Female College, the circumstances we are
about to relate took place. 1t seems that the
principal of the college overheard plan
among number of his young lady students
for drawing q young gentleman up to one Of
the third-story rooms in basket at night"
as no gentlemen suitors were permitted to
visit their college lady-loves, aud see them
alone, under strict rules of the institution.
The principal acted accordingly; and at the
appointed time was on the designated spot.
and when the basket was let down, took the
levers. place, gave the ''signal SWITCH" and
commenced going up toward heaven, drawn
by trinity of angels. When two-thirds up,
the angel eXpectant on looking down from
the window discovered to her terror and dis
may, that instead of her lover she had another
man in the basket; and, nearly frightened
out of her wits, made the facts known 10 her
fair helpers in mischief with the pertinent IN
quiry of

low voice said, "Who are you in that basket ?''

9dJohn Morrissey has recently discovered
that man in his employ who had charge of
the game of faro, by collusion with one or
two outside parties, would deal the cards so
that whenever they played against the bank
the house was always certain to lose. 1t is
said that during race-week one of the parties
in the secret with the dishonest dealer won
upwards of $4,000, which of course was di-
yided between them. The losses at the table
when this particular employee dealt, were SO
fa-se- ee to attract Morrisscy's attention, the
matter was investigated and the man dis
charged in disgrace. baA f.a- -..lo vi b.lEil.s

d -TnIUAPHANr FOR TWENTY YBAns.-Mor
than twenty years ago the MUSTANG LISIMRNT
made its debut in the West. Its cures of the
various external diseases of horses and cattle
astonished the planters and farmers of the
Mississippi and Ohio Valleys, and a demand
for it sprang up which necessitated its manu-
faeture ON an extensive scale, Soon the dis
coyery was made that it was grand specific
for rheumatism, gout, neuralgia, earache, tooth
ache, and other external ailments of mankind
Then it was tried as a healing pain killing APP
plieatien, in cases of outward injury, snch as
cuts, bruises, burns, spasms, &c. and was
found equally serviceable. The fame of the
new remedy for some of. the most painful ills
that afflict mankind and the lower animals,
spread rapidly, and MUSTANG LNDIENT soon
took rank in every State and Territory of the
Union as a STANDARD CURE. ... .f..,.-.- ,,... ..
