SCRUPLEs REMovED.-In the city OF
Mobile there. are daily drawings of lot
teries, and the negroes are the principal
buyers of tickets. An honest old uncle
called Jeff, was opposed to the business,
and had forbidden his wife buying tick
cts. She secretly did buy one, and after
the drawing placed it in her market bas-
ket, intending to stop at the Office on her
way to market and learn her luck. The
old man discovered the ticket before she
left the house, took it from the basket,
and pasted it on the back Of the door OF
their cabin. The wife went on her way,
arrived at the office, and ascertained that
she had drawn a prize OF fifty dollars,
but was much excited at not finding the
ticket. Returning home, she searched in
vain for the ticket, until the old man
asked her what she was looking for. She
told him, and that it had drawn prize.
He rushed to the door, and finding he
could not remove the document without
destroying it, seized the door, took il
from its hinges, placed it on his head and
made tracks for the office. Arriving
almost out of breath, he thrust the door
at the clerk, and exclaimed "Dar's dc
ticket dar's de ticket Jes glib us de
money; dat's all we wants I" And like

On THE APPROACH OF DEATH.-Man
sets out in the morning of his day, high
in hope, and elated with joy. The most
important subjects TO him are the COM
panions of his journey. They set out to-
gether in the career of life, and after
many mutual endcarments, walk hand in
hand through the paths of childhood. IT
is with giddy recollection we look back
upon the past, when we consider the
number and nature of those whom un-
forseen disaster and the hand of destisy
have swept from our side. The friends
whom we knew, and valued and loved
our companions in the path of life, the
partners of our tender hours, with whom
we took sweet counsel, and walked in
company to the house of God-have pass
ed to the land of forgetfulness, and have
no more connection with the living world

SIGNAL FAILURE.-Mr. Huggins, of
Snyder county, is in trouble. He was a
candidate for coroner, and he thought he
might promote his interests by getting
all the women on his side, so he went
around visiting them and kissing their
babies. He was unfortunate in two in
stances. Once he picked up baby that
was playing on the doorstep, and was
about to kiss it, when the mother saw
him. She imagined he was a kidnapper,
and as she was red-haired woman, with
hot temper, she darted at Higgins with
a broomstick, and made things very SEN
sational for him for few moments, un-
til he could explain himself. Subse-
quently he kissed Mrs. Jones' baby,
which had the measels, and then he kiss
ed fourteen other babies, every one of
which was down with the measels before
night, having caught the disease from
Higgins. He lost fourteen votes by that
operation, and six Of the fathers have
sued him for the amount of their DOCTORS
bills. Huggin's was not elected, and
when he runs again lie will conduct the
campaign on different basis.
