One day this week Marshal Keller was in

out for two men, described He did so. but
only one Of them arriving here the Marshal
walked him back, to find the only charge
against him was that of neglecting to nav
some board account. This manner of tanner

say the least of it, reprehensible, unless a
criminal charge is involved.

Or The 666 pig iron furnaces in
the country only 4O3 are in operation.
The same proportion exists in the
mills for reducing pig iron, and as a
consequence 1880 men are thrown
out of employment. So says the

The result shows that the Pres
ident's veto of the previous bill had
not worked any change in the senti
mems of the Senate, but the major
ity there were still satisfied that the
want of the country was more cur
rency. 1t is possible the bill may
undergo other changes before il
passes the House.

TOLEDO STEAM CAN FACTORY

Prominent among the leading manufactur-
ing firms in the prosperous "Corn City"-To-
ledo-ranks that of Messrs. H. M. Clark &
Co., manufacturers of tin and Japanned ware.
whose spacious factory is located en- the cor
ner OF Water and Lagrange streets. Having
long experienced feeling of curiosity as to
how 1t was possible for any firm to produce,
within paying radius, the innumerable at
tractlve and compact cannisters, boxes, cases,
cans, &C., so extensively used for the cenve-
nience of packing merchandise in the present
age of commercial enterprise, we last week
availed ourselves Of the kind invitation ex
tended by the leading member in the above
firm, to view their extensive establishment.
Our surprise with the sight was beyond meas

we received patiently submitted detailed in
formation, We fear our descriptive genius may
even yet fail us in conveying so lucid an ac-
count as we could desire Of all we learned and
witnessed. However, we proceed to furnish
our readers with some idea. The original es-

was conducted by them at the corner of Swan
Creek and Lafayette street. A year later, and
it was moved on to Monroe street, where for |
tune still lent willing smile to the enterprise,
and it next became necessary tc adopt steam. |
To this end another move in 1869, was found |
imperative, and this time an eligible location |
was discovered at I2l Water street. Here |
the business still continued to prosper, and in |
April, 1871, Mr.. H. n. Clark succeeded to it. |
As is frequently the case, upon "an infusion /
of new blood" increased prosperity resulted, |
and two years later another step up the Glad

fer of the business to yet more commodious
premises, where it is now carried on, and, if
we..may be permitted to draw conclusion, it
affords still brighter prospects of far more
radiant future, Now this is what we should
call "busiuess"-the old prOverb of the "rolI-

On Wednesday the largest black
rhinoceros ever exhibited IN the world
was added TO the collection in the
wild beasts in Barnum's HippodroEae.
This enormous mountain of flesh
weight $500 pounds. This is 200
pounds more then the rhinoceros in
the Geological Gardens in London.
His body is encased in heavy leath-
sr-like hide, which oVerlaps at the
Joints, making folds nearly two inch
es thick. His legs are short and
sfumpy, and his tail resembles the
black snakes used by teamsters in
the wv estern country. His mead is
covered with the same thick hide
which envelopes his body, and upon
his forehead and about his eyes and
ears it is piled up like plates. The
animal had large, sharp horn, which
projected from his sn0ut just above
his nostrils, but the monsters head
was chained down, and in spite of his
angry snorts and endeayors to get
away, this horn was sawed of close
to his snout. A cage upon wheels
was made on purpose for the rhinoc-
cross accommodation. 1t is heavily
barred with steels upon the sides and
front. His head is chained to q stout
beam, and heavy oak plank prevents
his backing. There il barely room for
the rhin0ceros to stand and lie in. 1T
he was given more space his immense
strength would enable him to break
from all restrains, and the havoc he
would make if loose may be imagined
but cannot be estimated. His inn
mense weight may be realized from
the TACT that when the cage containing
him was drawn into the Hippodrome
the wheels crushed through the con-
crete flooring in many places to the
depth of from two to three inches

A South Byheld man bought new
fr0ck-coat the other day. It had q
velvet collar, and he paid twenty
eight dollars for it, the South Byfeld
man did. He brought il home and
put it on, just TO break it in, and sat
down to his accounts. He spread
himself out over the table, and went
to work. His wife said that she was
going to make call, and he might
come for her about ten o'clock p. m.
The South Byfield man had his books
and papers spraWled out all over the
table, and his wife asked him If he
wouldn't like to have the other leaf
turned mp, and he thought that on the
Wh0le he would. His wife turned up
the leaf and it caught the sleeve OF
his new frock coat that cost twenty
eight dollars, and nipped it as in q
vice. His wife had been gone about
three minutes when ne essayed TO
move his arm, but he could not move
his arm, as the sleeve of that new
frock-coat that cost twenty-eight dol
lars was caught fast in the leaf Of the
table. The South Byfield man tried to
reach the brace that held up the leaf,
to turn il back, but he couldnxt reach
it; then he tried to kick it, but he
couldn't kick it; it wouldn't do to pull
himself free for it would tear that
coat that cost twenty-eight dollars.
SO he waited, that South Byfeld man
did, also his wife waited-waited till
ten, till half-past ten, till eleven, till
half-past eleven, and then the gentle
man of the house where she was vis-
iting went home with her-and-here

MY DEAR THEODORE: To-day
through the ministry of Catherine
Gaunt, character of fiction, my eyes
have been opened for the first time in
my experience, SO that i SEQ clearly
my sin. It was when / knew that /
was loved, to suffer il to grow to
passion. A virtuous woman should
check instantly an absorbing love, hut
it appeared to me in such false light,
that the love felt and received could
harm no one, not even yOu.s I have
believed unfatteringlY until four
O'Clock this aftern oon, when the heav-
enly vision daWned upon me. + see
now, as never before, the wrong i
have done you, and hasten Immediate
ly to ask your pardon with penitence
so sincere that henceforth Gf reason
remains) you may trust me implicitly.
OH my dear Teeodore, though your
opinions are not restful or congeniai
to NV soul, yet my own Integrity and
purity are sacred and holy things to
me. Bless God with me for Catherine
Gannt, for ali the sure leadings of an
all-Wise Providence. Yes, nowI feel
quite prepared to renew MY marriage
VOW with you, to keep it as the Savior
requireth, who looketh at the eye and
heart. Never before could say this.
When you yearn toward me with
true feeling, be assured of the tried,
purified and restored love of

Jones went out TO the deaf and
dumb asylum the other day to inspect
the institution. UIon entering he en-
cOuntered man, evidently an inmate
and he at once endeaYored to explain
to the man by making si2ns upon his
fingers that he wanted to look through
the place. The man also made signs
which Jones could not comprehend.
Then Jones made other and more Ella
borate motions, which set the man at
work with great violence, and for the
next ten minutes they stood in the
hall gesticulsting and twisting their
fingers without being able to compre-
hend what the other meant. Finally
Jones became angry, and IN an out
burst Of wrath exclaimed:
'sOh get out, you idlotl I'm tired
OF bothering with you !"
Whereupon the man said, ssThat's
just what | was going to say about
you."
.'Oh, you can speak, can your Then
why didn't you do so, and not keep

said Jones, "and | toek you for a pa

thought you were an attendant" said
the man.
Here Jones and the man shook
hands and hunted up genuine attend
ant and went away happy. After this,
Jones will always use his tongue, no
matter where he is.
