A husband in Salem, Mass, re-
Gently overheard neighbor re-
mark with sympathy that he was
henpecked. OF course, he would
have been less or more than man if
he had quietly submitted to this
scandalous imputation, and he
forthwith took strong measures to
prove its groundlessness. He rush
ed home; he hurled bootjack at
his wife; he reduced to fragments
two of her best dresses; and as a
conclusive climax he smoked his
pipe in the parlor, with his feet on
the table in basket of artificial
flowers. 1t is now generally admit
ted by the people of Salem that
this gentleman isn't henpecked, in
asmuch as he still survives without
q scar.

Anecdote Of Joseph Ill.

Many stories are related OF the
quaint humors of Joseph III. OF
Germany, and with all his foibles
the spirit of humanity was his over
mastering genious. The Emperor
was walking one day alone upon a
public promenade of Vienna, when
The met a. young woman who seemed
to be in great distress. He spoke
with her and inquired the cause oil
her sorrow. She informed him
that she was the daughter of apet-
ty officer who had been killed in
the imperial service; that she and
her mother had for a time been en-
abled to support themselves by
their industry, but that they were
now unemployed, and reduced to
utter want.
"Have YOU received no assistance
from the government p asked Jo-
seph.
"None," replied the girl.
"Why do you not apply to the
Emperor
"Ah," was the reply, with a sad
shake of the head, "such n step
would be worse than useless"
"Why So"
because he is cold and stern,
and cares nothing for us who are
poor and unfortunate
"Why do you think thus p
"Because have been so inform
cd by those who ought to know"
"Upon my life, my good girl, l
believe you are sadly mistaken.
But you shall try for yourselves.
The Emperor is my friend, and is
indebted to me. Take this ring,
and tomorrow morning present |
yourself in the imperial anti-cham-
Der and show it to the usher Bring
your mother with you, and fear
not. will answer for the conse-
quences."
The girl took the ring and on the
following morning she and her
mother appeared at the palace. A
of dignitaries were in wait
ing for admission to the imperial
presence, but the presentation of
he ring gained them precedence of
III others. When the young lady
vas introduced to the Emperor she
1eheld in him her friend of the
previous day, and her first impulse {
vas one of alarm in memory of the I
words that she had spoken; but {
Joseph quickly treasured her. /

THE MELANCHOLY SUICIDE OF JUDGE
PECKHAM'S BROTHER.
From the Albany Journal. Dec. Al

from the Albany Journal. Dec. T..
An inexpressibly shocking announcement ap.
pears in the dispatches this morning, giving an
additional pang to the profound grief felt In the
community at the sad death OF Judge Rufus W.
Pecknam. George W. Peckham, an elder brother
OF the late Judge has long resided In Milwaukee,
and is well known to many OF our older citizens. On
hearing OF the terrible late OF his brother ne became
temporarily insane, and while In that conditton
wandered 10 the bridge which spans the Mi!wau-
kee River ell or leaped into the stream, and was
drowned. The double fatality Is sad and
mourniul one. Two distinguished men, who
have passed the best portion oil their lives IN
this city have met violent deaths in quick success
sion. Both were full Of years and honors, and the
tragic termination OF their lives OF usefulness ls
felt with peculiar force In this community. George
w. Peckham was the senior Of the Judge by lew
years, and possessed similar characteristics and
ability. The brothers opened law ONCE In this
city half century ago, ana they won well de-
served reputation together. After few years the
nrm dissolved and the brothers separated the
elder proceeding to the West, where ne gained ad-
ditional renown, and alter acquiring goodly
competence retired from the practice OF the law.
