o. Sunday night, about three weeks ago, a
house on Mr.. Geo. W. McCords farm, occu-
pied by J. B. Odil and family, was struck by
lightning. The family were all in the house
hurt. A dog however, that was lying under
the stove was killed as dead as a door nail. Mr.
odil thinks that the lightning run down the
stove pipe. That house does not now require
a lightning rod, as lightning was never known
to strike twice in the same place.

uPu,s" and " Calls. {"

(Prou the Philadelphia LedgerJ
Question BY CorrEspOndent-Can you
give me an intelligent definition Of the
words put and call, which appear 10 belong
10 the business Of stock brokering! There
seems TO be loggy idea of their meaning,
and myself, in common with others
would like TO understand them.
.AnNner by Edii0r-"Put" is a technical
or slang term among brokers, and means
that one party will give down round
sum Of money, say fifty dollars, a hundred
dollars, or any otlDr amount agreed upon
for tho pIrihge Of delivering to another q
given number oil shares Of stock at spec
flied price within a limited time. Thu
party may or may not deliver the shares
II the price within the time goes down
sufficiently to give him profit over what
he paid for the priUilege, he will deliver
or, rather, he will demand the difference
between the stipulated price Of the stock
and the market price on the day that he
prOffers himself ready to put it to the
others order, for the stock is rarely, il
ever, put; the transaction Is simply 9
wager that the stock will go down, and Is
purely gambling operation. A call
Is the same sort Of transaction as &
put" only In an opposite direction; &c
much cash down is paid for the pririItg'
Of calling given amount Of stock at 6
price named, and Is simply a bet that The
price viii advance within the time stipu-
lated more than has been paid for the
privilege Of the ''csll." In this rather
discTeditablo sort Of business the party
buying q Privtlgs can lose no more than
the amount he pays down, as he neither
puts" nor calls" unless the prlce has
changed to suit his particular case, while
on the other hand, the seller Is liable tC
an Indefinite amount Of loss.

I'm extract from d private letter, If we re-
member correctly, written from Parkers-

politicians OF distinction. II was sug'
pested that conference was held
with reference to the impeachment
ri Gov, JACOB, but the shrewder surmise
is that the business discussed was oil o
more practical nature. There seems to
be reason to connect the election OF the
next Senator with the removal OF the
Csnital. WALKER Is understood to be q
candidate; and as he must be aware that
bis race at Charleston as Public Printer is
about run, what more natural than that
lie should attempt by bold stroke to. win
