Tho Trouble IN Danbury with G Pain. Pot and
Ladder.

Old Dir. Watson, on Nelson street,
has got nice little bill to pay: He
sent man down town for a pot of
paint and ladder. Then he tied the
paint pot on the ladder, and put the
ladder ON his shoulder. This Was a
very smart arrangement, and the man
himself admired it very much. lie
srtetad for home this way, and didn't
find any trouble in getting along the
first block, because the people had an
expression that a long ladder with a
pot Of yellow paint dangling on the
end of it wasn't exactly the thing to
tpife with, so they balanced along on
the cJlrbstone, or rubbed against the
buildings. Pretty soon the man saw
somebody in store he knew, and
turned around to speak to him, and
drove one end Of the ladder into 4 MILL
merry case and knocked the crown out
of an eighteen dollar bonnet Then
he backed off in alright, and knocked
down two sewing machine agents with
other end Then he started to turn
around, and an old gentleman who
was desperately endeayoring to pull his
wife out of danger, saw the peril, and
shouted out ''ii, there!" But it wasi
too late. The pot struck against sn'
awning post, tipped 10 one sids, and
the entire contents went over the aged
couple This SO startly the man that
he whirled bomDletely around, smash
ing in an entire store front, frigheen7'
ing milk mans team, and knocking
over some thirteen persons who were
actively lodging about to get out of
the way. Then he dropped the lad
ner and fled into the country, shouting
'murder" and ''ire" at every jump.

TEE NoDoc's REVENGE.

The treachery of the Modocs In
numbering she Peace Commissioners
brings the history of the former
massacre, in which eighteen Modocs,
peace men,, were murdered in 1852:
North California was disturbed by
Indian trubles that year, and com
pany, under the command OF Captain
Benjamin Wright, was organized and
proceeded from Yreke to the Indian
country around Tuls lake and the lava
beds, and fought three unsuccessful
battles, the force being insufficient fol
the subsection vt the Modocs. They
returned to Yreka and organized large
force and then marched again to the
Modoc country. Approaching they
found the Modocs' supply Of blankets:
ammunition and food entirely exhast-
ed, and consequently the Modoes were
anxious for cessation OF hostllltles
Captain Wright received the Modo cs
ovartures with great cordiality, a peace
conference was agreed upon and place
appointed in the immediate vicinity OF
the massacre Of General Candy. At the
conference about twenty-five lndlans
and thirty white men were assembled
while discussing terms. Wright gave
his men the signal and in moment
they killed eighteen Modoes, Seven
Modocs escaped and vert pursued
These wers the fathers of the present
Modoes. Capt Jack was then but
nino years old; John Schoncin, nine
teen; Boston Charley and Hooka Jim,
two years 1t is probable that revenge
grew with age, eliminating in the
Canby-Thomas Massacre.
Snme years afterwards Wright was
appointed Indian agent at Rogue river,
and was apprenhansive OF Modoc ven.
geance. One night all Indian Chief:
Enos, murdered and terribly mutulated
Wright, and was afterwards captured
and hanged. He died exulting that he
had wrcaked vengence on the leader o.
the massacre of his tribe.

South of Maryland is less favorable
than last year, and there are inaics:
tons of diminishing a'ea in the cotton

to be given in this report. Michigan,
the only State of the Northern border
in which winter wheat is mainly grown,
presents green and vigorous growth
wherever the snow has disappeared,
and makes far more favorable returns
than last year. In kentucky, more

Not long sinee gentleman visiting
a charity hospital, remembering that
he he had some illustrated papers in

would have forgotten the circumstances
if he had not been reminded Of it by
one of the physicians of the institution
whom Re met afterwards. "He has
not yet finished studying those pic
lures" continued the doctor after men

he gains nothing by it himself: His
latest performance in this direction
took place in San Francisco, where,
observing a gentleman examining the
heavens every night with telescope,
he thought he would vary the mono.
tony by giving him something to look
at. Full of this idea, he manufactured
an illuminated kite of peculiar shape
and, when it was about time for the
amateur astronomer to take his nighs
view of the siderial aky, raised it Ton
high, and managed to give it zig -zsg
motion, which ignited some combus-.
