now A MARRIED MAN sEws ON A BUT
= - 50 TON. -

II is bad enough to see bachelor
sew on a button, but he is the embod-
iment OF grace alongside Of o married
man. Necessity has compelled ex-
perience in the case of the former, but
the latter has always depended on
some one else for this service, and
fortunately for the state Of society, II
is rarely he is obliged to resort to the
needle himself. Sometimes the pa
tient wife scalds her right hand, or
runs silver under the forefnger of
that hand and it 10 then that the man
clutches the needle around the neck,
and forgetting to tie knot in the
thread. commences TO put on the but.
ton. II is always In the morning,
aud from five to twenty minutes after
he is expected 70 be down street. He
lays the button exactly on the site of
its predecessor, and pushes the needle
through one eye, and carefully draws
the thread after, leaving about three
inches OF it sticking up for the lee
way. Hesays to himself-"Well, ifwo-
men don't have the easiest time ever
saw" Then he comes back the other
way, and gets the needle through the
cloth well enough, but in spite Of q
great deal of patient jabbing, the nee
die persists in bucking the solid part
of that button, and finally, when he
loses patience, his fingers catch the
thread, and that three inches he had
left TO hold the button slip through
the eye in twinkling, and the button
rolls leisnrely across the floor. He
picks il up without single remark,
out Of respect for his children, and
makes another attempt TO fasten it
This time when coming back with the
needle he keeps both the thread and
button from slipping BY covering
them with his thanh, ana 3: - out ci
regard for that part Of him, that be
feels around for the eye in q very
careful aud jndicious manner, but
eventually losing his patience and his
philosophy as the search becomes
more and moro hopeless, he falls to
jabbing about in lose and savage
manner, and il 10 just tten that the
needle finds the opening and comes
through the button and part way
through his thumb with celebrity
that no human ingenuity can guard
against. Then he lays down the
things, with a few familiar quotations,
and presses the injured hand between
his knees, and then holds 1t under and
finally jams it into his mouth, and calls
upon heaven and earth to witness that
there has never been anything like il
since the world has been created, and
howls aud whistles, and moans, and
sobs. After a while he calms down,
and puts on bis pants, and fastens
them together with stick, and goes
TO business changed man.

ANoTHER NATIONAL HUMILIa-
TIoN has befalien us throGeh the dis
graceful corruption and .rascality so
lamentably prevalent nowadays in
what used to be known as "high quar-
ters,n and the shame is. made all the
heavier by. the fact that the deeds OF
dishonor were committed by men who.
were supposed to represent the very
highest type of the American charac-
ter, in the capital of a foreign and
imperial nation on which the eyes of
the whole world are fixed just nows
We allude, of course, to the Vienna
scandal. A dispatch from the theatre
of the great Worlds Fair Informs us.
that the investigation into the charges
against the suspended American Com.
missioners to the Exhibition has, been
completed. and volumnious details
have been forwarded to Washington.
The inquiry developed the fact that
the appropriation made by the United
States Congress for the Exhibition is
nearly exhausted. The charges of
bribery have been fully sustained. It
was also brought TO light that $50, ,00e
were expended on the roof. Of the
sewing-machine department, when its
actual cost was not more than one
tenth, of that sum-. Other reckless
expenditures were also proven. This
public corruption has grown from an
amusing domestic pet to the vicious
and dangerous, proportions of a greedy
monster that must one day. tear out
the nations heart, if it be not crushed
out very soon.

A BROKEN HEART.

a LoufsvfIie Man, Overvvhelmed by the
Death Of his Twni Brother, Dies from
the ActAsl Bursting of His Heart.
We gave an account in yesterdays
issue Of the Courier Journal Of the
sudden death of john Hunt, O mem.
ber OF the Fire Department, at the
fire on Green street, near Eighth.
He was pipeman Of the Gilliss
engine, and was said to be one of the
strongest men on the force. A post
iuortem examination was held yester-
day, in which it was found that q
gupture OF the ascending vena caya
had occurred. The perciardium was
found profnsely flied with blood,
which probably accounts for the fact
that death did not occur simultane-
onsly with the rupture. The rup-
ture being between the heart and
the pericardium, or sac which sur
rounds the heart. the later being ELL
ed with blood, temporarily prevented
the escape OF more blood from. the
wound, and thus prolonged life for
about an hour. The physicians re-
gard this case as very singular one.
John Hunt whose age was "a
years. had . twin brother, Richard, !,
who died SUDDENLY few weeks ago,
being found dead in his bed one
morning. John was much affected
by bis brothers death, and for some
time afterwards would go into the
woods until his family, alarmed,
would send for him. In answer 10
inquiries he gave as reason for his
strange behavior that he was "wait-
ing for Dick" The first attack of
this nature which John suffered was
after his brothers death, when, on
coming into the house one day, he
fell TO the floor insensible. After
reviving he said thas he had seen
Dick, and it had so startled him that
he tainted. While dying yesterday
morning he called in his rawlings for
his twin brother, and said he wished
to die with him. Hunt was held in
high esteem by his comrades Of the
Gilliss Engine Company, and his
sudden death was quite q shock to
them.

A LONDON letter states that Mrs.
Fawcett, wife Of the distinguished pro-

was recently requested to leave a free

the ground that it was not meant for

lady carried the .case to the Public
Library Commissioners, and was in
formed that women have right 70

THE WIDOW, . FAREWELL TO HER
anN
BY JOHN LOCKE,


Well, shamus, may God be with you.
And give me your parting kiss
Through all the troubles and changes
Thought twould ne'er come to thfsi
But yottTl think Of me sometimes, shamus,
When over the stormy sea-
When the vavee Of the windy ocean
Are rolling twixt you and me.
Yesi you1l think Of me. shamus darling.
When far from the lonely glen,
Though ! never may hear your footsteps
Or look in your face again,
For know they'll bury me, Shamus,
Down deep in the churchyard clay,
When the wintry winds are sweeping,
And ma bouchars" far awayi
Thought you'd be near me, shamrs.
When the long. long weary years
Should bow my head with their burdens
or sorrows and sD xious fears.
But you're going away "mavourneen,"
And never shall see you more;
When I'm dying sure you'll be roaming
Far on on the strangers shore.
Away in some crowded city,
Or down by the silent sea:
Longing, alasi but vatnly.
FOE message OF WORD from me:
But some of the kind old neighbors
VIII write TO you DER the sea-.
To tell you nos. heart and pulses
Are stilied "estor machree."
Then. II ever you come back. shamus.
Come back Ger the ocean wave,
Won't you steal In the hush Of the twilight.
To visit my lonely grayeZ
You know the spot in the churchyard
Where they'll lay nee down TO rest
Just under the slender hazel,
With my feet TO the starry west
Now, Shamus, may God be with you.
When over the stormy sea.
And remember ould Ireland always
Wherever your home may be.
And you won't forges. me, darling.
When far on the strangers shore.
Ma boucha1." my heart Is breaking.
And never shall see you more

AN A,iusINe STORY.
The Trials OF an Honest Legislator at
Albany.


Albany.
"Tbe Man in the Gallery" writes to
the Albany Times.
a gentleman who now occupies a
seat in the upper branch, but at the
time was member of the assembly,
relates the following: a
Perkins was as nonesJa u8au AS even
set foot in Albany. Money wouldn't
buy him. and / knew it, but I thought
/ would have little fun with him; so
1 went down to his room one evening
and said, Perkins what do you think
of that underground railroad bilis
Are you going to vote for it,"
aaWel1,n.. said Perkins, 81 hav'nt
made up my mind yet, exactly. / am
inclined to think it is a good bill; but
why do You ask2'
Il thought you were in favor of it,
said i; "and as long as you have con-
cluded to vote for it I just wanted to
say to you that the men interested in
it are paying FIVE hundred dollars for
votes, and as i. is coming up on its
final passage tomorrow, you can JUST
as well have the money as not; you'll
vote for the bill any way"
"vote for the bill I'll be hanged
frst,n cried the irate. Perkins. No
sir. If improper means are being
taken to pass this thing. as You say, l
for one will vote against it tevery time.
You can put me down ''no."
"Oh, I don't care anything about
the bill," said /; Il was only trying to
do you favor, and think can yet,
for, to tell the truth, the rival compa-.
nies are here in full force and are
moving heaven and earth to defeat it..
They are paying the same amcupt for
noes, and as long as you are bound
/ to vote that way. I'll get yan the i've
hundred all the same"
"Can such. things be?" exclaimed
Perkins, rising from his seat and tear
ing up and down the room iF a whirl-
wind of righteous wrath and yirtuous
indignation. "What state Of things
this is! A plague on both so1r Hou-
ses! 1 won't vote at ALL"
"All right said l as I laid my hand
on the door, "I'll get you five hum
dred dollars for Icing absent"

We learn from the Inyo Independent
that Al. Sesmith, formerly resident Of
Gold Hill, who made himself prominent
in that section about year ago in the
pursuit and capture Of some Of the es-
capped convicts from our State Prison,
died at Benton on the 9th of last month
under circumstances which indicated
assassination. He had been drinking
heavily that day and threatened the
lives Of people, and i'll the evening he
came to the hotel, opened the door and
fell dead upon the floor. On e1amina-
ton, his death was found to have result
ed from gui-shot wounds inflicted by
some unknown party, and the Coroner's
Jury rendered verdict accordingly.
