Powder i'm His Pocket.

The Reese River ReUeiiIe has the
following, which serves to exhibit the
extravagances of far Western humor
"a festive youth, who performs his
daily avocations in the mines of Lander
Hill, thought he would take home lit
tie blasting powder the other day it
might come in handy ~ split an obsti-
nate log he had at home. When he
started for his humble cabin in the
evening he wrapped few ounces care
fully in several thicknesses of paper,
and placed it in his pocket. When he
got home he got to thinking about how
long it would be before he was likely to
get crushing and then he thought
what nice perfume that handkerchief
extract that he bought last Saturday
night had, and he said within himself
that q miners life was hard and uncer-
tain. Then he thought he ought to
call ON that Smithers girl. He got his
necktie in proper shape, his handker-
chief was perfumed like unto new
blown rose one oiled lock hung grace
fully down on his forehead, and he
started for the domicile of his sweetness.
This young man is coloring a meer-
schaum, but his girl detests the horrid
smoke; so when he got to the door he
knocked the bowl of the meerschaum on
his manly heel, and put it in his pocket.
OF course he didn't intend to put it in
the same pocket with the powder. His
affinity met him at the door with a
sweet smile on her beauteous counte-
nance, welcomed him to her paterhal
mansion, and invited him into the par
lor and to q seat on the sofa. They
were engaged in conversation. He
asked her if it wasn't very beautiful
evening, and then she inquired how he
liked the dress Miss Brown wore at
church last Sunday. He said he didn't
like it bit, and she remarked that
Miss Brown was a stuck-up thing any
how and all this time that pipe was In
sidiously burning its way through that
paper. He agreed that Miss Brown was
stuck-up, and said he'd strike it pretty
soon, and then you'd see who would
wear plug hats. She told him she
thought plug hats so becoming, and
then he was going to tell her he adored
her; that she was the darling OF his
soul, and that all his happiness was
centered in her No. z boots. But he
was interrupted. He arose from the
floor and inquired if the lightning had
struck anybody else, and remarked
something about the Virginia explosion
being a warning to people not to keep
nitro glycerine in their houses. Then
he took off his coat. He said it was an
old coat, and he didn'twantitnohow. His
girls father suggested that this wasn't
4th of July, and if he wanted to set
off fireworks he ought to go up on the
hill and do it. Then the young man
said it was getting late, and he guessed
he'd go home, and suggested that he
would SEM a man around tomorrow
to fix the sofa. He says now that flax
seed amt worth cuss for poultice,
and he amt going to call on that Smith
ers gal any more; she's most too high
toned, and thinks herself too good for
miner, anyhow.

A BABE Dies FROM FRIGHT.
Boston Herald asserts that an infant
only five days old died from fright in
Newtonville, Mass, on Friday last,
under the following circumstances On
that evening very heavy thunder storm
prevailed in this vicinity, and at each
report of the thunder the babe jumped
systematically, and gave every evidence
of thorough fright possible in SO young
an infant. At last a terrific clap came,
and it died instantly. The lightning
struck house only few rods distant,
but it is not thought that the electricity
had any effect upon the child, for it was
not felt by any others.

IRON FOR ENGLAND.-A Youngstown,
Ohio, iron master, now in England,
writes to his partners that he thinks
iron can be shipped with advantage
from the mill to the London market.
And the Columbus (Ohio) State Jour
nal, regarding the fact, says: "There
is, or promises to be soon, no sufficient
reason why it should not be. We have
cheaper coal, and more of it, better ore
and more of it, in Ohio than all En-
gland, Wales and Ireland. Besides
that, the development of our coal and
iron interest is comparatively just be-
ginning. We have been picking over
the surface, SO to speak, as yet we
shall get fairly down to the merits of the
matter pretty soon.

Peaches and Nectarines Grown Under
Glass.

The art of growing peaches and necta-
rines under glass has been practiced
with much success for many years by
Thomas J. Pullen, of Hightstown, n: j.,
and his father, the late Isaac Pullen.
In England, this is called orchard house
culture. 1t is difficult art, and very
few succeed in it with anything like
profitable result Mr.. Pullen, however,
every year exhibits and sells large
quantity of magnificent fruit from his
forcing.houses. We yesterday saw some
specimens of Stanwick nectarines,
grown under glass by Mr.. Pullen,
which were really superb in size and
color. Also some Crawford's late and
old nixon free peaches, grown in the
same way, which are rarely surpassed
under any kind of culture. Phitadet-

To Stop THE RAvAGEs OF MOTHS

To Stop THE RAvAGEs OF MOTIFS
Camphor will not stop the ravages of
moths in carpets after they have COM
menced eating. Then they pay no re-
gard to the presence of camphor, cedar
or tobacco. A good way to kill them
is to take coarse crash towel and
wiring it out of clear water. Spread it
smoothly on the carpet, then iron it;
dry with good hot iron, repeating the
operation ON all suspected places, and
those least used. 1t does not injure the
pile or color of the carpet in the least !;
it is not necessary to press hard, heat
and steam being the agents, and they
do the work effectually ON worms and
eggs. Then the camphor will doubt
less prevent future depredations Of the
miller.

WITHIN few months several bakeries
have been established in the capital of
Japan, and bread is now sold regularly
in the streets to those wishing to cult
vate foreign tastes. 1t is sold either in
loaves or in slices, and vendors and pur-
chasers appear to be alike Indifferent as
to the freshness of the article. Some of
the loaves exposed are covered with a
rich green mold, which is apparently
regarded as an adornment by the Japan
ese. The slices are toasted brown, and
then eaten with the native soy. Butter
is not yet in demand among the Japan
csc, Notwithstanding that there are a
large number of COWS and dairies in

RECENT experiments prove that the
diamond is combustible at much lower

grave offenses committed prior to their cap

ington Chronicle publishes communication
from Judge Advocate General Holt, denying
the oft-repeated assertion that he wilfully
withheld the recommendation to mercy for
Mrs. Surratt offered by the military commits
sion which tried her and the other Liucoln
conspirators. Gen. Holt contends that Presi-
dent johnson received the whole of the rec
ords, and that his refusal to act ON the recon-
mendation of the court, and to see ths daugh-
ter of Mrs. Surratt when she applied at the
White House for an audience, was siDply his
own irresponsible act, uncontrolled and I'M
prejudiced by others.
