UNAPPREcIArED.

An editor in New Jersey had lit
tie nephew only six months old, and
the little nephew died. Some of the
editors friends considered that 1t
would be good thing to give the af-
hicted uncle substantial expression
of their sympathy; so they contract
ed with a local sculptor for grave
stone. TIE design consisted of an
angel carrying the little one in her
arms and flying away, while woman
sat weeping on the ground. It was
executed horribly. The gravestone
was sent to the editor, with the sim
pie request that he would accept it.
As he was absent, the junior editor
determined to acknowledge it, al
though he hadn't the slightest idea
what it meant. So the next day he
burst out in the paper with the fol-
lowing remarks:
'Art Netcs.-We have received
from the hands of our eminent sculp-
tor, Felix Mullens, q comic bas-relief.
designed for an ornamental freboard
1t represents an Irishman in his
night-shirt, running away with the
little god, Cupid, while the Irish
mans sweetheart hides her head in
differently in the corner. Every
true work of art tells its own story !;
and we understand, as soon as we
glance at this, that our Irish friend
has been coquetted with by the fair
one, and is pretending to transfer
his love to other quarters. There is
lurking smile on the Irishman's'
lips which expresses his mischievous
intentions perfectly. We think it
would have been better, however, to
have clothed him IN something else
than a night-shitt. and to have
smoothed down his hair. We have
placed this chef dGurre beneath our
parlor mantel-piece, where it will
surely be admired by our friends
when they call. We are glad to en-
courage such progress in local art. "

ing their way 10 Look ~ the Condemned
Man.
New YoRK, January 9.-Tt is Hot
generally known in this city that
Stokes failed in nerve on Saturday
night when the verdict of guilty wa
given. The verdict surprised the
crowded Court and none more than
the prisoner, his counsel and friends.
The prisoner completely broke down
and while waiting for the verdict he
was obliged to doctor his nerves with
brandy in the ante-chamber. After
the verdict the prisoner walked ont
side and water had TO be dashed over
him IN the adjoining passage. The
scene in the Court to-day will never
be forgotten by the spectators. The
prisoner looked gentlemanly and
bore the scrutiniziDg gaze of the
thousands of spectators, led by
morbid curiosity. He was ashy pale.
Before the sentence and just after
the Judge entered the Courtroom, d
curious scene took place. Mr.. Beach;
the counsel for the prosecution, who
kept bis eyes fixed on the prisoner,
arose, and addressing Sheriff Brennan.
asked whether the prisoner had been
searched for pistol or any other
deadly weapon. The Sheriff replied
that he presumed so, but took the
prisoner, who looked sick on leaving.
to an adjoining room and had him
searched. Evidently Beach feared
sudden shooting. hut there was moth
ing in the prisoners demeanor or ac-
tons TO suggest the fears, which must
have resulted from nervous excite
ment.
The prisoner tainted to-day after
the sentence, but the fact is not known
beyond four five persons. Disgust
ing is the fact of the presence of So
called ladies in Court, fighting their
way through the closely packed miss
of men, to wrtpesss the deatbiike yet
handsome face of the prisoner. The
sympathy of most of the spectators
was with Stokes, and the people think
that General Dix will exert executive
clemency. The general feeling over
the sentence of Stokes is a salutary
warning against the use of dangerous
weapons.-SpeciaI Telegram to the
Chicago Times.

Gently arrived from Paris says that
the notorious Josephine Mansfield
appeared in that city some weeks
since. She had about $37 900 in
money. This she deposited IN the
banking house of Bowles Bros.
When the failure of that house was
announced she wrung her hands in
grief, and declared that she was
ruined. It is not probable that she
will recover cent of her money.

The Rothschilds have told the
Mayor Of Paris that they will annually
give to the respectable poor of that
city $4,000 to pay rents with. It is
to assist that saddest class of poor
who suffer many of the pangs of pow

charity, or too proud to receive aid

Did you ever light a cigar with

Did you ever run yourself until

your ear and the other on your

Did you ever hang yourself over
