IN A FIT.-Yesterday afternoon a colored
youth, about seventeen years of age, fell down
suddenly in q fit at the corner OF Shepherd and
King streets. A large crowd gathered around
the PROSTATE figure and watched Its contor-
lions as the youth struggled and foamed at the
mouth. Every effort to restore him to coz
seriousness was made on the spot, but proved
unavailing, and the boy was at length taken
home 81 in an insensible condition. Later he re-
covered somewhat, but ls still in a critical con-
dltion.

great success of the past may induce the early
erection of an additional mill.

DEAR CIGARs.-About dusk yesterday after
noon a colored lad named Richard Ford was
arrested IN the King William cigar store, on
the charge of stealing cigars. Richard had
been a frequent visitor at the store, and after
each of his visits cigars were missed. On the
present occasion he was seized as he was about
leaving the store and searched. Cigars in
lunches and loose were found secreted among
his clothing, und also packages of tobacco
That he secreted such a quantity without be-
ing observed reflects high credit upon his
kleptomaulc skill and must remain a mystery
to all but the Straightforward fraternity. The
prisonerwas lodged at the Guardhouse, and is
held for examination.

VALUE OLA NEWSPAPER following
is the experience of a mechanic concerning
the benefits of newspaper.
Ten years ago lived in town in Indiana.
On returning home one night, for | am a
carpenter by trade, l saw a little girl leave
my door, and | asked my wife who she was!
She said Mrs. Harris had sent her after their
newspaper, which my wife had borrowed.
AS we sat down to tea my wife said to me
81 wish you would subscribe for the news
paper; it is so much comfort to me when you
are away from home"
'I would like to do so, said /, "but you
know l owe payment on the house and lot.

She replied: eff you will take the paper,
l will sew for the tailor to pay for it."

time to the shop. While resting one noon
and looking over it, saw an advertisement
of the county commissioners to let bridge
that was to be built. put in a bid for the
bridge and the Job was awarded to me, on
which cleared $500, which enabled me to
pay for my house and lot easily, and for the
newspaper. If had not subscribed for the
newspaper would not have known anything
about the contract, and could not have met

POPULAR D1sGUsT.-The New Haven
Conn Register says "Never in the politi-
cal history of our country has there been a
greater popular disgust manifested with an
administration or such stampede from the
ranks of its supporters, as at present. 1t
does not seem confined to any particular To-
cality, but it breaks out in all quarters.
There is not town in this county but in
which we have the names of Republicans
who who will vote for Greeley; our letters
from every part of the State tell the same
story, and so do our subscribers of their Re-
publican neighbors, and so does our subscrip-
ton book--perhaps the best criterion Of all.
Connecticut will vote for Greeley, Or we have
no knowledge Of our people"

MADE HIM PAY.--When General Jackson
was President, heartless clerk in the Treas
ury Department ran up an Indebtedness with
poor landlady to $50, and then turued her
off as he did other creditors. She finally
went to the President with her complaint
and asked him if he could not compel the
clerk to pay the bill.
"He offers his note, she said, "but his
note is good for nothing"
Said the President, "get his note and
bring it to me.
The clerk gave her the note, with the jeer-
ing request, "she would let him know when
she got the money on it.
Taking it to the President he wrote can
drew Jackson" on the back of it, and told
her she would get the money at the bank.
When it became due the clerk refused to
pay the note, but when he learned who was
the endorser, he made haste to "raise the
wind" The next morning he found a note
on his desk saying that his services were nc
longer required by the government-and ii
served him right.

Poor FELLows.-lnh his indianapolis speech
Mr.. Morton expressed the opinion that Hor-
ace Gaeeley, if elected, would infallbly turn
Democrat, and his Liberal Republican sup
porters would be dissolved in Democracy
like flies in vinegar. That is the reason,
remarks an exchange, the Grant men fight
the liberal movement with such desperation.
They are afraid it will strengthen the Dem
ocratic party so they will never get Office
again. Poor fellows they fight for bread
and butter!

The Grant Democrats are preIa ing to
hold their boiling convention at Louisville.
They have secured the country for enough
sore-heads and ira tors to make respectable
showing. They may get few hundred to-
gcther, but each one will represent his own
vote and no more. That the call has met
with no responce is evident from the fact that
no movement, with single exception, has
been made in its favor and that has been
made by one man. 1t is the deadest failure
of the kind ever witnessed.

HORACE GREELEY was in Congress three
months, and during that time he instituted
three reforms, which were then sneered at,
but have since triumphed, while the glory
has been claimed by the Republican party.
These reforms were the abolition of mileage,
the Homestead Act and the international
principle that man may change his citizen
ship and allegience. These were called
"Greeley's crotchets" when he instituted
them. m.-WOuntain Democrat.

BEEcHER's COMPLETE LETTER w RITTER. -
Henry Ward Beecher closes characteristic
article in the Nea0 York Ledger on letter
writing, with the following sensible advice:
"Do not begin letter with an apology or
an explanation. Time is precious. Letters
are mutitudinous. Men do not like to open
and clean a letter Ike fish before they can
eat it. State your business in the first line.
Then, when you have stated your business,
you can 90 on, if you wish, with expana-
tions and apologies, which the receiver can
read or not, as he pleases. Thus, if one
writes, "Dear Sir-I desire to borrow a
thousand dollars, without interest or secur-
ity," and adds eight or ten reasons why, the
receiver does not need to read farther than
the first line.
Never begin thus: "Dear Sir-You will
be surprised to receive letter from an entire
stranger" etc. Bless your dear heart, one
now -a-days is surprised at anything else!
Surprised! am surprised when ! do not get a
peck week.
There are a few rules which men should
commit to memory, in corresponding with
busy people.
l. Don't write at all.
2. When you can't help it. be sharp,
short and legible.
3. When you write on your own business,
pay for the answer.
A. When you want money, don't begin
with piety or fattery. Beg first and be
pious afterward.
s. Don't beg of anyone with whom you
are not personally acquainted. Die, but
| don't beg.
