A VERY HsAD BOY.

Max Adolcr mentions u report
that tho chief astronomer Mt tho
Washington Observatory was
dreadfqliy sold fow days ago.
A wicked boy, whose Sunday.

caught IL tire.hy, and stuck it.,
with tho aid Of somo mucilage, in
tho contro of tho largest lens in
tho telescope. That night, when
tho astronomer won't to work, he
perceived blnzo of light appa-
rently in the heavens, and, what
amazed him more, was that it
would givo a couple Of spurts and
thon dio out, only to burst forth
again in second or two. Ho ex.
aminod it carefully for fow mo,
ments, and then ho began to do
sums to discover whore in tho hoav.
ons that extraordinary star was
placed. Ho thought ho found tho
locality, and tho noXt morning he
tolographod all over the universe
that ho had discovered u now and
remarkable star Of tho third mag
nitudo in Orion. In a day or two
all tho astronomers in Europe and
America wore studying Orion, and
thcy gazod ut it for hours until
thoy wore mad, and then thoy bo,
gan to telegraph to tho man in
Washington to know what "ho
meant. The discovcrcr took an.
other LOOK, and found that the new
star had moved about eighteen
billion miles in twenty.four hours
aud upon examining it closely he
was alarmed to perceive that it
had legs! Whom ho won't on the

tho rcst. He was a large, portly
man, wcll dressed, and of gentle.
manly bearing. There were sharp
thrusts ut the liquor business, and
those ongagod in it. Indeed tho
whole subject was thoroughly
canvassod and handled without
gloves. Meanwhile this gentleman
slowed himself away in one cor.

as no could, with pompous and
magisterial manner he broke whom

Mdnure.-A gentleman who attended the sale
OF the personal property of Erastus Lodge of
New Castle Hundred, on Monday last, states
that he had frequently heard of the accumula-
ton OF manure on farms out west, until the
farmers were forced TO move their barns, but
the rearess approach to this state of things That
| he had ever witnessed was found on this prop
erty, the pig pen having actually been removed
In consequence ofthe great accumulation of the
| manure. 1t was estimated that 1000 loads of ma
nure were scattered about thepremises the wards
| not having been cleaned out for two or three
years. 1t is not surprising that such manage
ment lead TO visit from the Sheriff AIMED with
Wits of levaria facias, or venditioni exponas
