"CALL Me GEoRGE."-Apropos of
the personal gossip floating through the
press concerning the equestrian habits
of Hon. George Bancroft, our minister
to Germany, it is said that, notwith-
standing his venerable years, next to
his fondness for horse flesh is his pen
chant for harmless Irritation. A good
story is told of his weakness on this
subject. lie was promenading one eve
ming on the verandah of the Ocean
House, at Newport, with gay New
York belle, not yet out of her teens.
In course of conversation she addressed
her companion as Mr.. George Ban
croft"
"Now really, my dear Miss c."
said the ancient beau, "you must not
call mo lhat--call me George
A few momonts aftorward they re-
turned to the drawing-room and
mingled with the throng, when to the
ama2ement and horror of our embassa'
dor, the mischioyous girl exclaimed,
loud enough for the whole company to
hear: "Goorge, | have dropped my
glovo-ploase go and look for it,"
Bancroft went but did not return.

think tho most curious fact, taken
altogether, that ever hearfof the cleo
trio telegraph, was told me by cashier
| of the Bank Of England, You may have
heard of it. lam sure ii deserves to be.
"Once upon time" then, on certain
Saturday night, the folks at the Bank
could not mako The balance come right
by Just G100. This Is a serious matter
in that little establishment do not
mean the cash, but the mistake in
arithmetic for it occasions a world of
SCRUTINY. An error in balancing has
been known, am told, TO keep dele
CATION of clerks from each Office at work
sometimes through the whole night.
A hue and cry was of course made after
this G100 as If the old lady in Thread
needle street would be in the Gazette
for want OF ii. Luckily on the Sunday
morning clerk, lin the middle Of the
sermon, dare say, if the truth wore
known,) felt suspicion OF the truth
dart through his mind quicker than
any flash of the telegraph itself. He
told the chief cashier on Monday morn
ing, that perhaps the mistake might
have occurred in packing some boxes of
specie FOR the West Indies, which had
been sent to Southampton for shipment.
The suggestion was Immediately acted
upon. Here was q race,-lightning
against steam, with eight and forty
hours Start given. Instantly the wire
asked, "Whether such q vessel left the
harbor." "Just Weighing anchor" was
the answer. "StOp her!' frantically
shouted the electric telegraph; it was
done. "Have up on deck certain boxes
marked so and SO weigh them care
fully" They were weighed and one
the delinquent,-was found by just
one packet Of a hundred sovereigns
heavier than it ought to be. "Lct her
CO." said the mysterious telegraph.
Tho West India folks were debited with
just clQ0, more, and the error was cor
rccted without ever looking into the
boxes, Or delaying the voyage an hour.
Now that is what maybe called "doing
business. .'-Ncnry Rogers.

A CONSIDERABLE VICTIM.--We re-
member, says contemporary, reading
about husband going home tipsy one
night in a thunder storm, and who, in
ascending the stairs, lost his perpen-
dicular, and fell PROSTATE to the foot Of
the steps. Slowly gaining a sitting
posture, he gazed yacantly around, and
then exclaimed to his better-half who
had fastened to the scene of her lords s
discontinue:
"Wife, terrible clap that; did the
lightning strike any body cl5c?"
This story is somewhat oclipsod by
the following incident, which occurred
in Western city: Two men were en-
gagged in a quarrel on the railroad, and
train Of cars approaching, the atten-
ton of one of the bulligerents was drawn
to tho train. The other man, thinking
snow was his chance" let fly his fist
against the side Of the other mans
head, which felled him to the ground,
and he laid there apparently in an in
sensible condition. The other man,
seeing what he had done, became
frightened and ran away. Agentleman,
witnessing the affair, went to the assist
ance of the prostrate man, when the
latter, roviving and looking around,
asked
90! did the cars run over the other
fellow, too?"

The Hide Dealers Sign.

The proprietor Of lanyard, adjacent
TO certain town In Virginia, concluded
to build q stand, or sort Of store, on one
Of the main streets, for tho purpose of
vending his leather, buying raw hides,
and the like. After completing his
building, he began 10 consider what
sort OF Ia sign il would be bost to put up
for the purpose of attracting attention
to his new establishment ; and for days
and weeks he was sorely puzzled on
this subject. Several devices were, one
after another, adopted, and, on further
consideration, rejected. ....
AT last happy idea struck him. He
bored an auger hole through the door
post, and stuck calf's tail into 1t, with
the bushy end Haunting out. After q
while, he noticed grave-looking per-
sonsge standing near the door with his
spectacles, gazing intently on the sign.
And there he still continued to stand,
dumbly absorbed, gazing and gazing,
until the curiosity Of the hide. dealer
was greatly excited in turn. He
stepped out and addressed the in
dividual
"Good morning." said he.
Morning." said the other, without
moving his eyes from the sign.
"Do you want TO buy leather ?" in
quired the dealer.
"No.".
"Do you want TO sell hides ?"
"No.n
"Perhaps you arc farmer"
"No."

"No.n

Thero /. a GOOD deal of dry humor in

There IL a good deal of dry humor in
the American press. The following OK
tract from the louisville Courier is a
goln in lis way; 1.-THE New York ,Slm,
which is seldom satisfied with things,
objects to the proportions of rattle
snake recently seen in Carer Comfy, in
this State, and described as reaching
from one side of the road to the other,
while its dody was as big rs an ordinary
churn. The Sun says that was a very
badly-proportiloned snake, and that it
should have been q good deal longer or
else good deal thinner We should
like to know who is running the snakes
of this state, herself or the editor Of the
New York San. When things come to

herself the right to dictate TO Kentucky
the ;ize and shape Of her serpents, ii is

About Umbrellas.

Among the uses to which the umbrel-
la may be put is polling an utter stran-
ger afflicted with lumbago in the back,
under the impression that he is Smith.
1t also serves to keep of rain; first,
when it does rain; second, when it does
not rain. It's uses in the first event are
palpable to the naked eye. The second
case may be practically illustrated by
taking an umbrella down on cloudy
morning. The inevitable result is that
the skies clear up toward 8 O'Clock, and
you may return home in a sweltering
glare of sunlight and sufi'Ocated with
dust, bearing with you an umbrella,
which convinces all who meet you that
you are littlo erratic or shiftless. If
the table talker were an honest farmer
suffering from cOrnerin rain, he would
put on pair Of patent leather boots
and a light spring suit, and go on long
walk without an umbrella. 1t would
be sure to rain combined reapers and
mowers let alone NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
night. Umbrellas are not considered
private property amy more than the air
Of heaven and The rain which falleth
alike upon the Democratic and the Re
publican. You may take one with inn
punity at any time, if you are not OBJ
served. The last characteristic Of the
umbrella is its protean power of chang
ing shapes. You may leave bran new
mulberry silk with an ivory and rose
wood handle at any public gathering,
taking therefore a check, and within
three hours it will transform itself into
"a light blue or faded brown cotton,
somewhat less in size than a circus tent,
with 4 handle like a telegraph polo and
llyo broken ribs.

BABIEs.-We love little babies, and
love everybody who docs lovo babies.
No man has music in his soul who don't
love babies. Babies were made to be
loved-especialIy girl babies when they
grow up. A man isn't worth shuck
who hasn't baby; and the same rule
applies to woman. A baby is spring
day i'll winter--a ray of sunshine in
frigid winter-and if it is healthy and
good-natured, and you're sure it's yours,
it is bushel of sunshine, no matter
how cold the weather. A man cannot
be q hopeless case so long as he loves
babies-one at time. We love babies
all over, no matter how dirty they are.
Babies were born TO be dirty. We love
babies because they are babies, and be-
cause their mothers were lovable and
lovely women. Our love for babies is
only bounded by the number Of babies
in the world. We always look for ba.
bies-Wo do-with anxiety and paternal
affection. We do Indeed we do! We
always have sorrOwful feelings for wo.
men that have no babies, and don't eX-
pect any. Women always look down
hearted who have no babies and men
who have no babies always gamble, and
drink whisky, and stay out nights try
ing to get music In their souls; but
they can't como it. Babies are babies,
and nothing can take their places.
Pianos play out, and good living plays
out, and sweet tempers play out, and
beauty plays out, unless there's a baby
in the house. We've tried it! We
know; and We say, there's nothing
like 4 baby!

A LESSON FOR BoYs.-One day fine
Newfoundland dog and mastiff had a
sharp discussion over a bone or some
other tritiing matter, and warred away
as angrily as two boys. They were
fighting on bridges and being blind
with rage, as is often the case, the first
thing they knew over they went into
the water. The banks were so high
that they were forced to swim some
distance before they came to landing
place. 1t was very easy for the New
foundlander; he was as much at home
in the water as seal. But not 80 poor
Bruce; he struggled and tried his best
TO swim, but made but little headway.
Old Bravo (the Newfoundlander) had
reached the land, and then turned to
look at his old enemy. He saw plainly
that his strength was fast falling, and
that he was likely to drown. SO, what
should the noble fellow do but plunge
in, seize him gently by the collar, and
keeping his nose above water, tow him
safely into port! 1t was funny to see
these dogs look at each other as they
shook their wet coats. Their glances
said as plainly as words, "We'll never
quarrel any more! !"
