POETRY.
WOman's Rights,

One day at school
told tho boys
Twas wrong to chew tobacco.
A six year old,
Grown very bold,
Presumed to give his veto.
Says he, 81 saw
A Fellow chaw
Because he had the toothache:
faint never wrong
For ny one
To chaw that has the toothache
The school agreed
With him; indeed
His logic charmed the urchins.
Quite puzzled,
Could scarce reply
AT fir to bis assertions.
A happy thought
However brought
Relief from Greeley's namesake.
Horace" said,
"If girl instead
Should chance to have the toothache,
And want 10 chew,
What should she do?"
Like older ones by time unschooled
He scratched his head,
Ana then he said,
"She',i orter have the tooth pulled"

witnessing a Suicide.

A young man named Benjamin
c. Scobee, of Bowling Green KY,
got into a difficulty with another
pure Kentucky blood named Parrish,
and Scobee shot and killed Parrish.
That brought Scobee into addition
al trouble. His offence was reduced
to bailable one, aud his old grand
father and granduncle and his father
went on his bond until his trial In
the meantime he went to work on his
grandfather's farm, and was conduct
ing himself properly. The other
day he went to town and fell in with
some young crOnies' and the meet
ing was celebrated in several libs-
tions. In the evening Scobes rcturo-
ed to his grandfather's, accompanied
by one of bis young friends. He ap-
peared to be little, but very little,
the worse for liquor, and expressed
10 his friend regret that be had
been weak enough to taste strong
drink, especially as a serious trial was
hanging over him, and he was at
Liberty only on his good behavior
and th4 bounty Of his relatives.
Soon after reaching home he went
20 the cabin of q negro near and got
pistol which he knew he would find
there. He then went into a grove,
where be accidentally met the negro
to whom the pistol belonged, and told
him he was about to shoot himself
The old negro pleaded with him not
tOdo it, as the pistol belonged to
him, and the affair would c'use
ttonble, He would probably be
charged with murder, aud the cir
cunstances would look ugly against
him. This was very thoughtful Of
the poor negro, and it brought con-
siderate response from The young
man. He said; "My troubles are
greater than any other boys. | find
| cannot meet them; bat | Away:
liked you, and will do nothing to 10
Ijure you. Go to the house and tel
grand pa to come down here, and
you shall have q witness The ne
gro obeyed, and presently the old
man came out into the grove will
him.
The grs Ddfather treated the boy,
expressed design rather lightly; told
him to put the pistol away, and com,
into the house and entertain bi
young friend. The boy made q mo
ton to aecede to the proposition, sbC
the next instant be sent a pisto-bal
crashing through his brain, and died
almost before his kind old grapdla
tber could reach bis side. The bo
is out Of bis troubles, and tie old ne
gro doubtless saved himself from
charge of murder that might hsv'
gone hard with him.

PRESCRIPTION FOR CHoLEBA.-
TIE following prescription was adopt

Philadelphia 10 1866. IL has been
repeatedly published, but, as it has
stood the test for many years Of expe-
rieuce, it will bear republication at
this time: 1t is regarded by many
as probably the very best prescrip-
ton that can be used for cholera in
i,s locipient stages:
"Laudauum,2 ounces, spirits Of
campbor, 2 ounces; tincisre Of caps

MISCELLANY.
A Famous Lump.

Colonel S. T. Aanser, Of the First
National Bank of Helena, proposes
to place upon exhibition at the Vien-
ma Worlds Fair q solid ipgot Of Mon
taua gold weighing 400 pounds. This
immense brick would be worth, in
coin, nearly s9O,00O-more money
than many a man who will be at the
Vienna Exposition has ever seen at
one time-and the talk of shipping
it calls to mind a similar incident
which occurred in 1851, when some
enterprising Californian shipped to
Paris for exhibition CaliforDis gold
ingot, the weight Of which was 100
pounds. Its exhibition in France
caused no little excitement about the
newly discovered land of gold, and
put happy thought into the head
of the French Government, and one
which afterward proved of great ad
vantage to California. Purchasing
the huge specimen, the Government
advertised it to be disposed of by lot
at one franc a ticket, the proceeds of
the lottery to be used in giving free
passage to as many of the poor men OF
Paris and other cities of France as
desired but we're unable, from lack
of means, to emigratO to the Golden
State beyond the seas. An immense
n numb Der Of tickets we're printed and
distributed throughout France, Bel
GUM, ahd other parts of Europe, met
with a ready sale, and very large
"emigration fund" was thus accumu
lated. At the day Of the drawing it
was found that poor brick mason of
Paris held the lucky number, and was
placed in possession of the handsome
prlze-nearly or quite $4,000. Pro
vision for the passage was made, and
from all parts of France came the
INDECENT to embark. Many 10 the
great citi.s-especislly 10 Paris
who, though poor, did not wish to
accept a free passage from the couu-
try, received q gentle hint from the
authorities that the scheme was gotten
up for their benefit, and they had
best accept its conditions. Among
these latter whom the city government
wished to get rid Of were class of
dissipated, good for nothing noble
meu, whose title was their only pos
session, and whose room was consid-
cred better than their company. We
do not now remember the exact pum-
Der who accepted the free passage,
but it was in the thousands, and thus
while France ridded herself Of
large pauper population, California
was a gamer by several thossond,
hardy laborers. In France. as also
by the French in this country, these
emigrants are known as "L'Ingots,"
so called from the manner in which
the emigration fund was raised. Sew
ersl ofthese L'lugots are now scatter
ed through Montana, and quite q
number are at the present writing
tirifty citizens Of our own country.
