The NeIson.street Boy Cuts Wood.


The NeIsOn.street Boy Cuts Wood.
From the Danbury News.l
There was a boy in Nelson street
yard cutting wood yesterday, and he
worked at it in strikingly natural man
ner. First he set the stick on one end
and prepared to strike it, when it tum-
bled down. Then he stood it up, and
put silver under the weak side to sus-
tain it, and lifted the ak for the blow,
when it tumbled again. AS he had got
the ak up quite a ways this time, aud
was fairly quivering with expectation,
the reaction was net pleasant. 1t APP
peared to weaken him, and before an
other trial be leaned on the ak and
looked around on the scenery. At the
third trial he put several slivers under
the stick, and was some FIVE minutes
doing it. Then he raised the ak care
fully, deliberately took aim, and brought
the blade down with terrible force, and
within about an inch and half of the
stick, which Immediately tipped over.
This surprised him. He looked at the
ak, then at the stick, and then around at
the house TO see if anybody was looking.
He was ten minutes propping the stick
up the fourth time. When be got il SO it
would stand without being held, he took
up the ak, and after several mock
motions so as to get the right aim, he
swung the implement down again. The
blade struck the stick with terrible force
within about sixteenth c. an inch from
the edge. aud took of slip about FIVE
inches long. We don't suppose there is
anything quite so Gggravating as this.
Splitting your shin open to the bone is a
pastime in comparison. The Nelson
street boy stood that stick up again with
out any ceremony. and with the least
display in the world swung the ak over
his head and brought it spitefully down.
The blade this time clipped off half
inch chip, aud thea swung around with
such momentum as to throw the boy of
his feet aud drive him headlong over a
pile of other sticks, every one Of which
he struck with his knees or face. We
don't think we ever Jaw any boy get on
his feet as quick as that boy did. And
We we're not in the least surprised to sec
him snatch up that ak, and, with screams
and sobs, beat that stick until be was
exhausted. With this unpleasant duty
performed, be flung thea in among the
tomato vines, and went in the house for
piece Of cake.

ANECDOTE OF HON. ANDREW
JOHNSON.
How the Ex-President Recovered
His Old Tailoring Table.

Now sue Ex-President Recovered
His old Tailoring Table.
From the Bristol Ncws.l
Ex-President johnson has beer noted
for his kindness to tailors. Some
time since he loaned to one of them the
old table on which he used to ply his
shears and needle, and from which he,
in an unparalleled career, rose to the
Presidency During the cholera alarm
Of June last this brother left Greenville
in hurry, taking his family with him
to Bristol. In the confusion he neg.
lected to leave behind this celebrated
table. Mr. johnson was Frustrated by
violent attack of cholera, and could
not attend to outdoor business, and so
the table found its way to Bristol. OF
course it was regarded by the family as
a relic too interesting to be lost, and on
Wednesday last Mr.. Andy johnson, jr., a
son Of the ex President, arrived at Bris-
toll in quest Of it, and found it safely
locked in one Of the A., NJ. and 0. cars,
and snugly billed for distant Virginia
town, to which the aforesaid tailor had
already removed. There was no use in
warrant in detinue, for the service
could not be made, and as both table and
tailor were in Virginia, an attachm emit
could not be gotten in the State, and one
from Tennessee justice could not be
served.
Did the pursuit end here2 Not bit
Of it. Learning that many of the Vir-
ginia cars are backed across the State
| line to the Tennessee switch in order to
get them on the proper track, Mr.. John
son procured from justice on the Ten
nessee side a warrant Of replevin, and
when this car was being switched for its
Virginia journey, there was present a
Tennessee officer, who very dexterously
switched the celebrated table out Of it,
and turned it over to the son of the ex-
President, who now has it again in
GreenVille.

In its financial article, the Baltimore Sun
saws that there is Il system of killing, or
rather Of fnaucicrug, by borrowing sterling
bills on stock collatcras, which for the past
year has extensively obtained in New York.
1t is the most dangerous aud weakest spot 10
the financial situation Of the country, and places
the whole Of our monetary affairs at the mercy
OF Euglish BANKERS. 1t appears from an arti-
Gle in the Loudon Times OF late date. that
the London banks and bankers have become
alarmed at the extent Of this false system, and
have imposed check upon the further dis
count Of such bills. The extent Of these fcti-
tious credits, the same paper says, is estimated
as now amounting to ,elS,000, 900, or about
ninety millions Of dollars 1t must not be for
gotten that this vast amount natures within
the next sixty days, when the spectators are
liable to fud that while the bills supplied to
them brought only l0S4 when sold at New
York; they must at the end of 60 days pay
l04 for sight drafts to close the transaction,
or plead for renewals on any terms which may
be accorded them. Iu all such affairs the ulti-
mate break up can only be question Of time,
and it will depend upon the prudence of bank
managers aud shareholders as to the side OF tho
Atlantic on which the consequences are to fall.
