MANY curious articles were declined by
he South Kensington Exhibition Csm-
missoEers. A lady wrote to say that she
could procure the shirt that Charles
l, was executed in IL was composed
of theft pest possible cambria, most elab-
orately worked, apd had been handed
down to her from early ancestors; but, un-
fortunately, it was then in the hands Of
the pawnbroker, who had advanced k10
upon it. If she could receive this sum,
and a further amount sufficient to
buy glass case for it, this would prove
one Of the greatest attractions 10 the
exhibition, and show how superior was
the needle work Of that age to any pro-
duced at the present time.
A man who was evidently ahead Of
the time for no one had then talked
about emation-wished to exhibit an
apparatus by which hundred pounds
OF animal matter could be reduced to
dust by six pounds Of charcoal, In few
hours, without causing an offensive
smell. "This," said he, labelling pac-
ket containing few ounces of dust, is
all that remains of a large dog" The
Commissioners were at loss to see the
utility Of his invention at that period,
and therefore refused to allow him
space.
A Norwegian sent chart Of the earth
to prove that it was not round, but fiat,
and asked that space may be given him
to lecture in, when he would show how
blind all the learned men had been on
this subject, and would teach the rising
generation truths that would be worthy
Of the exhibition to unfold. - Usdnab-

The anecdote related of John Jb
Aston as follows may be kno sn to
many of our readers:
In a public conveyance on a GER
tain occasion, Mr.. Astor overheard
young men expressing a wish
that he could possess 'that old
mans wealth" whereupon Mr.. As
tor turned to the speaker and said
to him.
young man, / sometimes feel
weary and would gladly throw off
my load. For what will you take
charge of my usiness, and take
care of my property, watching
with ever vigilant eye that no mis-
take occurs---that there be no
leak, and at the end of each quar-
ter rendering up clear and sure
balance sheeta'
The young man opened wide his
eyes. He knew not what to say.
Said Mr.. Astor:
IF you are capable and will do,
/ will pay your absolute necessary
expenses of life.
As may be supposed, the young
man expressed his surprise in his
looks, observing which, the old
merchant simply added:

FAILING OF A DENTAL TIsT-

A young man, living on Cum
berland street, this city, for many
days, suffered with severe tooth
ache, and as a dernier resort, he
decided to go to a dentist and have
the offending bi-cuspid taken ont.
With that resolution well fixed in
his mind and one dollar in his
pocket, he sought a well known
'.tooth carpenter on Greene aven
ne. The dentist at once decided
that two teeth would have to be
drawn. The young man had not
the nerve to stand the ''double ex-
tract" so he told the dentist to
bring forth the nitrous-oxide bag
and he would quaff himself away
into insensibility.
He took the mouth piece and
drank away at the gas. The den
fist at last thought he had enough
He spoke to him. A rational an
swer was returned. He must have
more gas and the mouthpiece was
again inserted between his lips.
When he had taken gas enough
to render two men insensible he
would try q well known dental
est to see if he was ''gone.
"Billy 2"
No answer.
He then touched the patients
eyelids to see if there was any
muscular contraction, and, in so
doing, accidently touched the eye
itself. No twitching of any kind.
He must be insensible. The for
cops at once brought out tooth
with tremendous root,and at the
same time. brought the young
man to his feet with yell.
"Why in the deuce, Doc, didn't
you wait until / had sucked some
more gass'
More gas? You took enough to
put two men to sleep, and besides
1 touched your eyelid and even
put my hand on your eye and you
never showed twinge, and that
is considered and infallible test.
That s good wondered what
in thunder you were fooling
around my glass eye for
The valve which was found to
be out of order, was repaired, the
mans second tooth drawn. and he
soon went away chuckling to him

The people of Virginia have
been severely criticised In some
Quarters for failing to pay the in
terest on their public debt. It is
urged that they have not been sub
jected to carpet bag rule, and that
therefore there is no excuse for
delinquency, The truth is that
the financial condition of Virginia
is exceptional. Her debt was
contracted before the war, while
the other Southern States owed
comparatively little then. The
agricultural resources of the cotton
States are adequate to their spec
dy restoration to prosperity under
good government; but what was,
unfortunately, Virginia's chief re-
sources, slaves, vanished as one OF
the effects of the war, and the
States main reliance hereafter,
must be in mining and agricul-
tural pursuits, which it will re-

KILLED IN NINE Row.-The old
friends and acquaintances of Wm. P.
Kellogg, who for many years was resi-
dent OF this county, will regret to learn of
his tragic death, which occurred at Gold
Hill, Nevada, last Saturday. From a
full report of the bloody affair, published
in the San Francisco Post, we CLEAN the
following : 1t appears that G. +. kel-
logg, (Bill's brother) hao been appointed
Superintendent of the Justice Mine, and
that Bill, with four others, went TO the
mine to take possession. They found the
works guarded by armed men, but on
consultation the Foreman agreed to give
up possession when Kellogg showed his
authority. Leaving the works and when
some distance away, Kellogg noticed hos
tile demonstrations, and returning, got
before his men and endeavored to keep
them back. Two of them, however,
pushed past him and one of them, raising
his revolver, volley was fired from the
building, and three of the Kellogg party
fell, two of whom died in few moments,
and the third being mortally wounded.
We now quote from the POST "A par
ley then ensued. Kellogg told them that
he desired to talk with them, and said
that this work must not go on; that he
didn't come there to have a battle with
those in possession, and asked if he might
enter. They answered that he might if
he came alone, but said that if another
attempted to follow, they would fire upon
the whole party. Mr.. Kellogg now ad
vanced toward the building, had reached
the door, and was in the act of raising his
foot to step in, when he was fired upon
by those inside and fell at the door. Mi
chael Cain ran up to bring Mr.. Kellogg
away, he being still alive, when he was
shot in the breast and killed. During
this time two or three shots were fired by
the Kellogg party at those in the building
but with what effect is not known. After
the killing OF Cain, there seems to have
been an entire cessation of hostlities on
both sides, and the outside parties were
allowed to approach and carry off their
dead. The presumption is that when
Kellogg advanced to the building some
Of his men made move to follow; other
wise the killing of him was n most treach
erous and cold blooded murder, MS he
went to the building after being assured
that he would not be harmed. The whole
thing is bloody and unwarranted piece
Of business, and will no doubt be very
strictly Investigated by the authorities.
There appears to have been m mucn rash
ness and hot-headedness on both sides I"
