OK vs. ENGINE.- Last Thursday ar a train Of
cars on the Wilmington a Reading r. II was
running along a short distance from Spring
field the engineer observed an OK on the track
The whistle Of the engine screamed and other
demonstrations customary on such occasions
took place. OF course the engineer thought
the OK would get ont of the way-but the OK
didn't-at least not as soon as the engineer ex-
pected. The engine struck the animal and
threw it up on the COW catcher where it re-
manned until the train passed over a small
bridge, whom it rolled OH and down twenty
feet emhanbment, and from there limped away,
apparently as badly muddled and no doubt feel
ing quite al sore as the fellows who are doing

His Troubles In Reconeiiipg the MonKreis.

His Troubles In Reconeilipg the MonGrels.
Nasty has been transferred from Ken
lucky to Chappaqua, where, under the di-
rection of the National Committee, he has
supervision OF the great and good Horace.
In describing his perplexities, he-says:
l hev, however, some trouble. My per-
sonal appearance is better sooted to the
latitood NV Kanetucky than Moo York,
and hev tn wear hat without any rim
to it, in the sun, to account for the redness
of my nose. Then / have to meet so
many kinds NV people. We hev here the
old Abolitionist and the old Democrat
which are the hardest to manage. Then
comes the modified Democrat who accepts
niger suffrage and sich, eff he kin be as
shoored of the Post Offs in his native viii
lage, and the modified Republican who is
willin' TO swallow amnesty, and likewise
to doubt whether universal suffrage wuz a
good thing after all, provided he kin be
asshoored up the Collectors Offs which
Grant refuzed to give him, and which is
now held Ivy minyun and nepot. In
short, we hev all shades here, and it's a
bother TO take cale of them all. / don't
like mulattC babies, becoz every one NV
'em is proof positive that there's bin adult
terry somewhere. For the same reason /
don't like coalishun parties. They amt
natral and every one Nv 'em bears the
mark NV the sin thro' which it kane into
the world. Ours Is a mule party, eff THAR
ever wuz one, and heartily wish we wuz
thro' with it.
On one occasion Free Trade delegation
and Protection committee collided, and,
as they only had one room for them, Hor-
ace had to faint and be carried out, to save
compromising himself. To remedy this
evil he has arranged the house differently
and submits plan as follows:
A room marked / is for Protectionists,
. for Free Traders, for the religious ele-
ment, for the boys Nv q convivial turp, 5
for extreme Southerners, and 9 is for old
time Abolitionists Z is a hall running
akross the house from which any one OF
the rooms kin be entered, and 5 Is where
we shell keep Mr.. Greeley hived, when the
weather won't admit of chopin. We
hev the rooms furnished in accordance
with the tastes NV the people who will see
the inside NV 'em. In the religious room
there will be tract or two and Bible left
carelessly on the table; in the room for
boys there will be stumps Nv cigars and a
bottle or two in the corners in the tariff
room there wilt be specimens NV ores and
coal, and in the free trade room there will
be the kards Nv all the importin' houses.
l shall reseve all the callers, and after as
sertainin' who they are, shall take 'em to
the appropriate room, and going out thro'
the hall, shell conduct the great and good
Horris in to 'em, and he kin talk to 'em
in satisfyin' manner. Ez we may hev,
ez in this case, more than one party, hev
he'd the walls lined, so that what is said in
one room can't he heard in another. From
this time out it will be easy sailin'. Sich
is the power NV mind over matter.
