A Serious Mistake for Married Man to
Make.

A little incident occurred in front of
the International Hotel Virginia City,
few days ago, which is worth the room
of q local to relate. There relidos in
Gold Hill o married mana tall, good
natured Scotsman--whose wife went on
visit to the East some eight months
ago. A couple Of weeks ago she wrote
him letter that she would leave for
home, and that he might expect her to
arrive in Virginia City on a certain day.
At the appointed time our Gold Hitler,
(who had scarcely talked to any living
woman since his wife left for the East,
anxlously waited on the sidewalk in
front of the stage Office to embrace his
long-absent wife; and several of his
friends noticing his impatiencc, inquired
the cause, whom he enthusiastically in
formed them that he expected his dear
wife, who had been absent for eight long
months, and he would be SO happy when
she arrived, that it would be equal to
getting married again, and he was sure
she was on the incoming stage, as she
wrote exactly the day she would start
for home, and it took just so many days
to come on the cars, and the time was up,
etc The stage arrived and drew up in
front of the International Hotel, where
our friend had already engaged u COM
Portable chamber, as he knew his wife
must be tired and sleepy after such
long journey, etc. The passengers all
got out of the coach except one lady on
the back seat, who was deeply yelled
and had on thick, checked shawl Our
Gold Hill friend made rush into the
stage to embrace and kiss his wife-he
knew it was her by the check shawl she
had on, us it was the one she left home
in-and Just as he was about throwing
his arms around her neck, and pushing
the heavy brown veil aside to get good
smacl, at her lips, a deep, sonorous voice
from under the veil exclaimed: Never
mind chile, kin get out myself, kin ~
Horror of horrors could such n thing be
that it was not the long-eXpected wife:
The would-be husband Withdrew from
the stage, and out bounced big, fat
colorcd woman, of at least two hundred
and fifty pounds in weight, and, throw
ing aside her VEIL she cast terrible pair
of black eyes at the intruder, with this
remark: You can't fool dis gal afore
all dis crowd" The disappointed hus-
band asked tho crowd into Captain We
sey's saloon to take drink, provided the
whole thing was kept a secret-which
has been strictly observed. His wife has
since arrived, and he is happy, but he
swears he will burn up that check shawl
she Wore when she left home. No more
check shawls for him.-Gold Hill (Ner0-
dd) Ne,rs. a

The Only Difficulty.

Unclo Peter, who Aourished in the
mountains of Vermont, as horse deal
er, was called upon the other day by an
amateur of equine" who was in search
of something fast. The result is told as
follows: "There," said Uncle Peter,
pointing to an animal in the meadow
before the house; "there, sir, is an ami
nal who would trot her mile in two
minutes and seventeen seconds were it
not for one thing" "Indeed~ "Yes," +"
continued Uncle Peter, " she is four years
old this spring, is in good condition,
looks well, is first-rate mare, and she
could go mile in two seventeen if it
was not for one thing" "Well, what is
it :" "That mare" resumed the jockey,
sis in every way good piece of proper
.ty. She has heavy lnane, switch
tail, trots fair, and yet there is one thing
only why she can't trot her mile in two
minutes and seventeen seconds" "What,
in conscience, is it, them" cried the
amateur. "The distance is too great for
the time" was the old wags reply.-OhiO

An Exciting Adventure Al Sea.

i disngreeable incident seems to have
in somo degree interfercd with the COM
fort of three hundred passengers on board
the vessel Glenarvnoy on its voyage to
Calcutta. One night when they were
slumbering tween decks in tho Straits
Of Malacca, they were disturbed by the
gambols of black panther who had cs-
capped from cage i'll which it was con-
fined, and amused itself by making
springs over their PROSTATE bodies. Their
screams having attracted attention, cv-
cry available lseans Of exit was thrown
open, and al the passengers reached the
deck in safety. One man alone appeared
to have suffered from the claws of the
animal, q large strip of skin and flesh be-
ing torn off his back. AS the panther
could not be found, it was concluded that
he must have jumped out of the port into
the sea, and the next evening the passen-
gers settled down in their quarters as
before, During the night, however, the
panther turned up again. Some boat
swain's stores being required from for
ward, one of the Chinese lascars was sent
down to get them, when he presently
returned, exclaiming in trembling ac-
cents, Tiger gotee down there" The
captain, determined to stand no further
nonsense, Immediately sent for his breech-
loading rifle and cartridges, and went
down she hatch by himself, and ordered
it to be closed after him, for fear the
beast should again get on deck, and cause
further annoyance and alarm to the pas
sengers. On reaching the deck of the
storeroom and looking around, the large
yellow lit eyes of the animal glared down
on him from the top of some spars slowed
along by the ships side. Taking advan-
tage of the dim light admitted by the
port, the captain took a steady aim at
what he considered tho center of the ami
mails body, and fired. Still the yellow
eyes glared on, until second shot being
fired, the panther, measuring seven feet
eight inches in length, rolled dead at the
captains feet, to his great relief, and no
doubt to that of his passengers also.
