PuuctuaI Ladies',

Did any body ever hear Of a paDctua
woman? IL is said that 10 lady yet ever
had the remotes5 idea of the duration OF
five minutes, or half an hour an hour, OF
any other space Of tine She treats ap-
poinimenis generally with the most SUI
preme Indifference, SO far rs punctuali.y is
concerned, and will miss q train almost any
time rather than miss putin on her gloves
before starting out, and the Goodness with
which young lady will express astorish.
meEt at being demonstrated with BY her es.
coEt, whom sic has probably kept waiting
three quarters Of an hour, while she puts
the finishing touches TO her toilet, is
truly refreshing.
However, the observations Of the femi.
nine mind, like the movements Of the
heavenly bodies, admit Of some approach to
calculation. Far instance; you may al
ways predict with absolute Certainty that e
lady will be ready 10 90 10 = theatre by the
time the play is hale over, or thai she will
make her appearance in the concert hall az
the proper time e Interrupt and annoy the
finest singer of The troupe.
Fortunately The foregoing observations do
not apply TO the Nashville ladies' bless 'eu,
for they ara always up 10 time when they
make an Of gsgenent 10 60 cut. They never
keep their company waiting, and they never
enter cl'u ca alter the services are half over,
oh 10 Z!

Police PickfBSs.

Daniel Z, ole is dead. That fact is es
tablishsd beyond all controversy. II this
were not the case, thu attaches of The NssG-
vile Police Court would be wi!,ii g TO tase
their solemn Oatll-egen after the Chinese
fas5lon--tO the effect thai that early settler
Of the Ozark and Bloody Ground" walked
into our police court room yesterday morn
ing. The individual bearing so close
resemblance to the famous hunter, was
dressed in back8oOdS costume, his heSd
protected from the inclemency Of the Weab-
er By the skin OF defuHct coon; by his side
hung leathern pouch, with buck-horn
charger and bOne-turkey caller, while upon
his broad shoulder rested an old-fashioned
squirrel rife with barrel five feet long.
But the similarity did not end here. The
CHAP referred 10 evidently possesses some Of
the chzracteristics which distinguished his
great prototype-among them being fond
ness for the open air, as be was found qai-
city sleeping on tho banks of the
placid Cumberland-diffeTing from
Boone, however, in that his sleep
was brought about by bis having
previously imbibed to excess st 8 neighbor-
ing gin mill, The arrested party thus
strangely tired, said that bis name is Reu-
ben Piuio0, and that he '.just happened in
town" He contributed two dollars in cur
rent funds towards iquidaIing the city's
debt Of million and = half aud left the
court room.
4 sad case Of domestic unrest was dis
closed by the testimony in Susan Browns
casa. It seems that BIr. Brown has wife,
ana ss It sometimes happens in
the experience Of other married
men, Mr.. Brown concluded that his wife
needed re-organizing, and being DESTROYS Of
securing, regardless ofany personal sacri-
fee, that pesce and tranquility in his DO
mes.ic relations for which his soul yearned,
he set about the procuring OF the desired
reorganization with his characteristic en-
erCy. The means he adopted were very
eifeciusl-s0 much so that Mrs. Brown was
forcai to baudage her head and buy
yard or so of sticking plaster, aud it is said
that she will remain ia seciusion
for > Few weeks In order that Der hair may
grow out again.
Brown left ten dollars with Judge Du-
ling, as a SLIGHT acknowledgment OF the
high appreciation he has OF his Honor's
abilities SIS 2 public magistrate.
James Meyers got into little argument
with woman the ether day, and in order
to convince her that he was right and she
was wrong, cut her with a knife. For the
next thirty days Meyers will uss his knife
in cutting an inferior article of beef at the
Workhouse.

The BIRD of NEinerHa.

A considerable friend residing in this
county has sent US 8 stalwart specimen of
the strix flammes, the bird of Minerva, or
an owl, SO called. The gentleman who
transfers all right, title and interest in the
aforesaid TO these apartments intimstes that
if We would install him as our oracle,
s'perched upon the bust of Pallas just above
the editorial door," bis faculty of looking
into "ways that arc dark" might enable us
to grope our way through the present polit-
icaI complications He argues that the pc
caliar anatomical structure of his neck,
which permits him TO see all around him
with the greatest facility, and gaze with
gravity at any point Of the political compass,
is another useful feature, and may be of
service in the present emergency. Though
usually shy of "triczs that are vain," trap
a night or two since vas not in vain, and
his sedate Owlship was taken in, and is
commended to our hospitality. We have
issued orders to have him furnished with
three live rats daily until further orders. If
all the rats in the city disappear between
this and Christmas, We will telegraph TO
China for more.
