THE GORILLA SUES FOR H1s.sALARY.

The Chicago Tribune says: "One of
the most remarkable human beings
that ever had existence, complained to
the mayor yesterday that he had been
swinded by the proprietors of Jones
Museum, a travelling show Of the hor-
rible order, now located at No. 40
Randolph street. 1t appears that
while the museum was being urged
through the neighboring state of Indi.
ana, the managers discovered the com
plainant, Frederick Hetlisch, at Toll
etson. lie resembled a gorilla so
much that they conceived the idea of
engaging him to personate a wild man
in their entertainment. The seductive
offer of s25 month and board was
thrown out as IL bait for Fred to rihble
at, and he gulped il down without
wasting time in consideration, and be.

his repulsive features and misshapen
body, struck terror to the hearts of the
simple rustics who patronized the show
on it's tour through the hoosier State.
He was a great card for the manage

firmly believed that his grandfather
was ut least a fine old African
gorilla who might have met Mungo
Park in his solitary wanderings. At
ter Indiana had been thoroughly can.
vassed the museum proprietors decided
to visit Chicago and take Fred with
them. They arrived hero a few days
ago, and ever since the wild man
has been a source uf wonder to those
who have seen him. Rut wild men
resemble tame men in two respects al
least; they will eat aud sleep, The
museum people, however, appear t'
have overlooked these minor matters
in their dealings with the wild man.
They have given him no money and
have never even asked him if crus
of bread would do him good. Natu

that he cannot live long under sucl

A dinner party was given in
Charleston, few days ago, ut which
some interesting revelations were
made by Judge Clifford, formerly At
torney General of Massachusetts,
According to the statements of y
Charleston paper, the Judge gave the
secret history o. the extraordinary le-
gal conferences which stopped all
proceedings against jefferson Davis
for the crime of treason. The story
runs to the effect that the most emf
nent lawyers of the North were called
together in Washington in 1860, for
consultation that the Federal COnstl-
ton, the laws of nations, the decisions
of the supreme Court in the case OF
Aaron Burr, all failed to show prece-
dent or authority for holding the ex.
President of the Southern Coniederacy
to account that although the council
OF great legal miEds engaged in the
discussion of this subject differed on
some points, they were agreed upon
the principle question at issue; aud
that, on their recommendation, the
case was abaadoned by the govern.
ment. The conclusion, ia brief, was
that the laws Of the United States had
not been So constructed as to afford
any certainty of punishment for high
treason or rebellion, and that, if ar
raigned, Davis could not have been
convicted.
They tell a good story in Law
renee of II professional gentleman and
wife, who bear the very highest repu-
tation for severe propriety. Last Sat

TIE CHANCES IN FAVOR OF CRIME.

The Foud du Lac, Wisconsin, Com.
monwealth thus hits off the absurdities
of our sytem of criminal law: IF any
body kills you the State will punish
him, if he is caught and convicted but
will not he particularly "desolate," as
the French say, if he gets of. Ger
tain it is, he will have every possible
chance afforded him, if he be caught,
to defeat justice, in spite Of all the tax
YOU paid during life, which according
to the compact, had direct reference
to the conviction Of your murderer.
He will be presumed innocent; the
burden of proof ill he thrown on the
prosecution there must he an actual
preponderance nf evidence tn cunvict

power. So you see there is very little
likelihood Of your names being aveng-
ed. But even if he is convicted and
punished, righc minded men unite in
declaring it should not be for killing
you, that would he the Lex talionis,
and everybody knows that's wrong.
1t would not bling you to life again
but would simply be barbarous re

not for killing yuu, but 10 keep him
from killing Us, and to deter others
from killing us. He is not to be pun

what he may do, or embolden Others
to do.

on examining the figures Of the lato
census relating to manufactures. In

to the relative Importance of several
principal cities, in the aggregate Of
their productions, we learn which
State excels in each separate branch
of manufacture, and how large pro.
portion of the country's total produc.
ton it supplies. Thus, in tho manu-
facture of cotton goods, Massachusetts
takes precedence, turning out about
one third Of the aggregate production
of ali the States. Massachusetts also
takes the lead in bleaching. byots and
shoes (producing nearly one. half Of
all made in the country, baskets.
brushes, cordage, cutlery Cover one
half) chairs, spinning and weaving
machinery, fish oils, paper, phato.

and woolen goods.

An occupation pursued in various
parts of Texas, aud peculiar to that
State, is the trade generally known
as "cattle skinning." A number oi
daring and not over scrupulous ifl-
lows will baud togeather and scour
the country at all hours, for the pur-
pose of"s "skinning" any luckless bovine
that may De found out of sight Of its
owner. The cattle are driven into
the hush or raviuc, shot down and
hastily deprived of their skin and the
carcasses left for the wolves or boz
yards. This has become real science
in Texas, and many are making mou-
ey at the business. The hide Of a
good steer will bring Sc, and as it is
all clear money it is bound to pay.
Efforts are being constantly made tn
catch these "skinnists," but they are
so sharp, that they always elude cap
ture. This is a branch of the cattle
trade with which the people of other
States are not generally acquainted
but as the old man said to his son, sit
shows what energy and perseverance
can accomplish"

NOVEL RUNAWAY MATCHES.

a singular incident happened on
the L. G. and L. train conducted by
Captain Clnhessy, the other day. An
old gentleman and his hopeful son of
about nineteen summers got on the
cars at Choppers Station, in company
with two blooming lasses. Their APP
rearance and actions excited some
suspicion, and upon inquiry il was
ascertained that the two gentlemen
were runaway lovers and the two la
dies cousins. who were going to be-
come of one flesh with the father and
son respectively. The father, discreet
man that he was, had chosen the elder
of the two maidens, who was about
twenty, and the son had taken the
Younger. n blooming miss of eighteen.
They accomplished their journey in
safety, were married in Jacksonville,
and returned ell Capt. Clohessy's train
again. 1t was quite amusing to see
them as they chuckled over they sue

Of the girls-leaning across the aisle to
whisper to each other, and resuming
their erect attitude to give an atiec
tionate squeeze to the fair ones by their
sides. We never betnre heard Of faith

OLD LETTERS Never burn kindly
written letters it is so pleasing to read
them over when the ink is brown. the
paper is yellow with age, and the hands
that traced the friendly words be folded
over the hearts that prompted them,
under the green sod. Above all, never
burn love letters TO read them in after
years is like resurrection to ones youth.
The elderly spinster finds in the impas-
stoned offer she foolishly rejected twenty
years ago fountain Of reiuvcnescence.
CHANGING over it she realizes that she was
once belle and beauty. and boholds
her former self In a mirror much more
congenial to her tastes than the one that
confronts her in her dressing room -
The widow indeed" derives sweet and
solemn consolation from the letters Of tho
beloved one who has journeyed before
her to the far-off land, from which there
comes no message, and whore she hopes
one day to join him. No photographs
can so wildly recall to the memory Of
the mother the tenderness and devotion
of the children who have left ut the call
of heaven, as The epistolary outpouriug
Of their love. The letter Of true son
or daughter to true mother is some-
thing better than an image Of the fca-
lures it is reflex Of the writer's soul.
Keep all loving letters. Burn only tho
harsh ones, aud in burning them forgive
and forget them.
