editor-in-chief for his knowledge of
the situation.
It will be something like nine thou
sand years before Coggia's comet
flaunts its horrid hair in these re-
gions again, and perhaps by that time
the average Chicago woman will have
learned better manners than to prop
her feet up on the horizon, and pre-
vent people seeing the celestial wan
derer.
A Chicago reporter went to party
the other day and was good enough
to remark the next morning, that q
certain young lady had the smallest
waist in the room. There is no sense
in getting wrathful with the young
man; the other girls killed him the
next day, and they made him a grave
where the sunbeams rest
An exchange ridiculing the ridicu-
lous county fairs, which make no eff

ate the pumpkin, and thief prowl-
ing around stole the calf, and that
ended the fair.

Don't Marry Him.

The american Register prints the
views of correspondent, lady, as
to whom girls ought not to marry
The list is so long that we fear nc
men will be left for those that follow
! her advice. Her catalogue is formi
dable; whether it is just we leave to
the readers judgment from the few
specimen extracts:
Don't mary any man over forty.
He bristles with habits as English
young ladies do with angles. Don't
marry the lively man.
Don't marry man who stops your
mouth with compliments, makes des-
perate love to you the first time he
sees you, and talks about kissing.
That man thinks women are fools, but
he is mistaken.
Don't marry man who tells won
derful stories of which he is always
the hero and in which he always dis
tinguishes himself by extraordi
nary wit, or sagacity or courage or
presence of mind-these qualitiesnot
being, as rule, conspicuous in him.
Don't marry a man who has great
many sisters. Such man is always
spoiled; beside which it is not pleas
ant to be engaged to a man who
knows all about your false hair, and
how much your dress cost yard.
No woman can ever be an ideal di-
vinity to a man who has whole
squadron of sisters.
Don't marry man who says every
woman ought to know how to cook.
Don't marry a man who wears an
eye-glass or tight boots with high
heels, who curls his hair or his mus
>tache, who puts scent in his whiskers
or bleaches his eye-lids, who lisps,
who has his finger nails long and
pointed, carefully cut in an almond
shape, who wears -buttoned
gloves, takes six and three-quarters,
and tells you so; who, if he be dark,
wears a red cravat; if he be fair, a
sky blue One-there is no surer indi-
cation of a mans character than his
neck tie--I always look at that first,
who has enameled visiting cards and
a brilliant monogram, and who al
ways wears rosebud in his button
hole.
Don't marry a man who keeps bull
dogs. He is sure to be like them.
Don't marry a man who gets up
early. Nothing makes a person so
insutferably conceited.
Don't mary a man WHO nobody ever
saw any evil of. Be sure that he is
poor creature.
Don't marry a man who doesn't
smoke and prides himself upon it.
Don't marry man who has great
admiration for Dr. johnson. He is
sure to be bear.
Don't marry a man who invents
things. Invention is the offspring
of necessity.

A Red Hot Democrat.

Scene, railroad station in Mary
land, not far from the National Capi
tai. District politician and a coun
try constituent meet and shak'
hands:
Politician. All, Jones! going t.
the city, l see!
Countryman. Just so; thought /;
trip would do ME good.
Politician. Well, how does the
nomination suit you?
Countryman. Didn't like it! Cant
swallow that fellow anyhow. He
amt Democrat enough for me, no
how.
Politician. Why, how so? He is
red hot Democrat, he is. You cant
beat him on Democracy. l tell you
Jones, he knows all About it.
Countryman. Yes he may be al
right now, but I can't forget where he
stood during the war. That fellow
was war Democrat and agin us all
the time. He wasn't no friend of the
South nohow! l am one of those
fellows that can't forget the past, ]
can't.
Politician. oh, that's all right. !
wouldn't touch him myself, if he stood
where he did during the war. But
things have changed, you know, and
tell you in confidence, no man on
earth feels meaner of his record than
he does to-day. 1 tell you he is a
red hot Democrat.
Countryman. Well, I'll see about
it. If he is dead agin the nigger,
and with us agin the Radicals, l may
take him in for lack of a better, but
it goes agin the grain to swallow one
that wasn't of us.
Politician. Now, Jones, give me
your hand. Let's take a drink
that's what cali patriotism! Exit
arm in arm, to bind the bargain with
a glass of old rye.

The Great Efforts of a Repudia.
tiOnlSt.


From the Sandusky Register.
The Cincinnati Enquirer, which
can boast not only that it is the lead
ing organ of the Democratic party of
Ohio, but that it has crushed Allen G.
Thurman, forced reputation npon all
the Democratic candidates, and led
captive the country Democratic press.
is flooding the State with circulars.
calling upon the faithful to subscribe.
The circular says: "Vote for the
Congressional candidate and the
Democratic State ticket upon the fol-
lowing Enquirer. platform: The 500
bonds were made payable in green
backs by the law which created them;
therefore, we pronounce the law of
1869, providing for their payment in
gold, as a monstrous fraud.
We demand immediate expansion of
the circulating medium" And this
is the platform Of the Enquirer, and
all it has to commend it to the peo-
pie.

our merchants received a large box of
new prints and thought he would try
his hand on Sensation" Rowland
prInted him some bills In which it was
announced that the best prints were
selling at seven and eight cents. An
other merchant Immediately put the
best prints down to six cents, and the
women folks began 70 rush In. Before
the sun sat on "calico day. prints were
down TO five cents. All day long the
rushrcOntinued, anil gentlemen began
searching the odd corners of their old
forgotten wallets for fifty cent piece
to buy their wives q new dress. Ths
rush to the stores was great and many 9
heart was made happy over new calico
gowns that night. It is not ali over
yet, and our merchants have been re-
falling the best prints at ~ to 8 cents
all this week.
