The DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE
Mr. jefferson used to relate, with
much merriment, that the final sign
ing af the declaration of Independ-
ence WAS fastened by an absurdly
trivial cause Near the hall in which
the debates were then held was a
livery stable, from which swarms of
flies came into the open windows and
assailed the silk-stockinged legs of
honorable members Handkerchiefs
in hand they lashed the flies with
such vigor as they could command on
a July afternoon but the annoyance
came at length 80 extreme MS to rem
der them impatient ut delay, and
they made haste to bring the mo-
mentous business to conclusion.
After such long and severe stain
upon their minds, members seem to
have indulged in many joc,llar OBJ
servation as they stood around the
table. Tradition has it That when
John Hancock had affixed his mag
nifcent signature to the paper he
said There, John Bull may read my
name withoutspectacles !" Tradition,
also, win never relinquish the pleas
ure of repeating that, when Mr.. Han
cock reminded the members of the
necessity of hanging together, DIR.
Franklin was ready with his Eyes,
me must indeed all hang together, OF
else, most assuredly, we shall all hang
separately And this may have sug-
gested to the portly Harrison-a
Luxurious, heavy gentleman" as
John Adams described him-his re-
mark to slender Eldridge Gerry, that
when the hanging came he should
have the advantage, for poor Gerry,
would be kicked in the air long after
it was all over with himself. French
critics censure Shakespeare for mixing
buffoonery with scenes of the deep
est tragic of interest But hero we
find one of the most important as
semblies ever convened, at tlie SUI
preme moment of its existence, while
performing tho act which gives it its
rank among deliberate bodies, crack-
ing jokes, and hurrying up to the
stable to sign, in order to get away
from the flies. 1t is precisely sc
that Shakespeare would have imagin'
cd the scene. From Pdrtons LII;
Of Jefferson.

in modern times ever achieved SC

where he married o woman who
brought him some property. Then,

animal almost wearied out Bssett' 5
patience, and he was about giving up
the task 10 dispair when he bethought
himself Of new way Of tanning the
young pig. After sixteen months of
unwearied perseverance,, he at last
was rewarded by instilling little
reison into the pigs unreasoning
Uranium, thus proving that pigs can
not only see the wind by common
belief, but that they can be made
useful in raising the wind" During
the teaching of his pig, Bissett used
to keep young young pigs under
his shoemaker Il seat while he worked.
In 1888 Bissett brought his Learned
pig into Doublin, procured the leave
of the lord mayor for his exhibition,
and carried the city Ivy storm. 1t

Home from the war.

Just at the close of the Revolution.
ary War, there was seen somewhere
in one of the small towns of Centrnl
Massachusetts,, n ragged and fore
lorn-looking soldier, coming up the
dusty street. He looked about on
the corn fields tasselling for the har-
vest on the rich bright patches Of
wheat for the sickle, and on the
green potatoe fields, with curious
eyes-so, at least, thought Mr..
Tawne, who was walking leasurly be-
hind him, going home from the reap
ing to his supper. The latter was q
stout farmer, dressed in homemade
linen trousers, without suspenders,
vest or coat. The ragged soldier
stopped under the shade Of great
sugarmaple, and Mr.. Towne, over
taking him, stopped also.
"Home from the war 7" he asked.
'Just out Of the British clutches,
replied the man "I've been a prison
er for years. Can you tell me who
lives in the next house Is it yoursi'
mo, replied Towne, ''Tomkins lives
there. That house and barn used to
belong to comradc Of yours, as I
suppose his name was Jones, but
he was shot at Bunker Hill, and his
widow married again"
The soldier leaned against tree.
'eWllat kind Of Q man is he 7

the Tyrone Herald, was q square,

DELICATE CREATUREs.-This Is the
phrase applied by His Blackness, the
Moor OF Venice, to the fair ladies Of
Italy. 1t was the lovely complexion Of
Desdemona, such brilliant contrast to
his own, that won his heart; and sooth
to cay, every man of. discernment con-
siders fair skin, like sweet voice, ian
excellent thing in woman" Now this
is a charm which can be acquired,
There is a healthlul and odoriferous
toilet article, known everywhere as
Hagan's Magnolia Balm, which liter
ally transfgures a cloudy or sallow
skin, suffusing the discolored face, neck,
arms and bosom with soft, pearly
tinge, and imparting to the surface a
smoothness and gloss like that of pol.
ished marble. Instead of clogging the
pores, like the sticky enamels, or con-
tracing them, and thus obstructing per-
spration, like the astringent cosmetics,
it cleanses the skin from all impurities
and wonderfully improves its texture.
This popularity is particularly appre'
ciated by our rural bellies, who find that
the coarseness and roughness, which
country air is apt to engender, are speed
lily removed from their faces, hands and
arms, by this delightful preparation.

small piece in the neighborhood OF
Squire Schultz's office, intended to con-
meet Denny and Jacob streets. As we
say above, the denizeus Of the late Re
public are happy in the thought Of soon
having full supply Of the aqueous.
That is most of them. We were talking
with one Of them about it yesterday.

make 90 much fuss about sgetting q lot
of water down there. Water" said

when you want to wash your feet or
when your house is on fire, but for
drinking, it's too thin. Then why make
a fuss about it? II twas whisky now"
and he smiled 80 sweetly that his mouth
looked like a ripe tomato run over by .
