borers exclaimed
"That beats the dickens"
The mate came up at this moment and
unaware of the cause of delay, commenced
cursing them for their diiatoriness, wher
from within the cask the voice came forth
You're nobody let me out of this cask. .
What's that p said the mate.
Why, it's me- said the voice; " want
to get out; | won't stand it any longer.
"Up-end the cask, said the mate.
"Ob, DON'T You'll kill me, said the
voice. "Oh, how those nails prick Look
out--don't" again said the cased-up indi
vidual, as the men were turning it over.

and take that man out"
As the adj sundered the hoops aud the
head was coming out the voice again BROKE
forth
"Be easy now is there any one about
| don't want to be caught"
Quite a crowd had now gathered aroun,
the scene Of action, when a loud guttura
laugh broke forth, which made our hail
stand on end, as the cask was filled witt
bacon,
"What does it mean ~ says one.
at beats my time" said the mate.
We enjoyed the joke too well to blow
as we walked off arm-n.arm with the ven
trioquist and magician.

breaking Colts.

A correspondent writing to the Rural
Nei1 Yorker says; The genting Of
colts should begin when they are but few
weeks old. Frequent handling and occa-
sional sailing or feeding them from without
your hand and stroking their necks are all
good practices. From two to three years
old they should be accustomed by degrees
TO the saddle and bride. Thus treated,
breaking becomes an easy task. When first
being driven, they should be harnessed with
a good steady horse. In fact, kindness
and frmness, together with good common
sense, is what is needed in breaking colts
And IL they are rightly managed, they will
seldom, if ever, play any tricks. In the
first place, they should be made to under.
stand what is wanting Of them, and then
in the proper way make them perform ac-
cordingly."

The Danbury Neics man remarks :
" You know her. She lives on your street.
Her features are either pinched or full and
frowsy. Her dress is wet, ill-ftting, and
of no particular pattern; her slippers are
broken down her hair is uncombed her
voice is either shril or coarse. You have
seen her stand out in the back yard, and
put a bare arm up to her eyes, and under
1t peer out to the fence or barn, where a
man in an ill-itting coat is searching for
something, and have heard her shout, y ohm,
can't George bring me some water p And
when you have looked at her again, don'tit
seem impossible that those angry eyes have
dropped in maidenly reserve, or raised in
coquettish light to TIE face of the man in
the ill-6tting coat? Can you, by any pos
sible wrench Of the imagination, conceive
OF his tenderly passing peppermints to her;
of his taking that hand in his and bashful-
ly squeezing it a.? But it was so. The
tightly compressed lips have lovingly franz
ed tender invitations to him to take another
bite Of cake and pickle The hands that
are now parboiled and bistered and marked
with scars from the breadknife and scratches
from the last setting hen were once twined
lovingly about his neck, and the nose which
is now peaked and red, once followed the
figure Of his new vest pattern, or bore
heavily against his jugular vein. As little
probable as this seems to you, it seem less
to her. She has forgotten it. She won't
hear it talked of by others. She cannot bear
to see it acted by others. Two lovers are to
her passed. of fools.''

they report the discovery of a axe IN
that region which mas an outlet anu
inlet through one and the same chan
mel /; the water is kept in constant CIR
culation, but never leaves the basin,
only through evaporation. The outlet
is through a canyon at the upper end
of the lake, the water, almost on a
level with the main body, moving
sluggishly away in a circuitous course
for several miles, when it returns and
is precipitated into the lower end OF
the lake, over high and perpendlcu!ar
shore walls. Several streams empty
into the lake, which comprises many
square miles, but no positive outlet is
visible.

The War.

We have nothing definite from the
Modoc front this morning. 1t appears
that no courier arrived at Yreka yes
terday, and therefore there is nothing
known OF the movement of the
troops. The announcement of the
escape of the Modocs from their
stronghold in the Lava Beds is, how
ever, reaffirmed. Apprehensions of
. general outbreak of all the Indian
tribes in Northern California and
Southern Oregon are foreshadowed
in our dispatches. The belief is also
expressed that the Modocs have sen
out runners to stir up the war spirit
among all the adjacent tribes. Sew
eral days will doubtless elapse before
the situation is fully understood. In
the meantime everything connected
with the progress of our troops will
be eagerly looked for.
