A young lady in the Fast End Of
Cincinnati who has just returned from
completing her education in Boston,
wanted to kiss her old lover last
night, and her mother objected. The
daughter drew up her qucenly form
to its full height, and exclaimed j:
Smother, terrible, tragical and sub
timely retributive will be the course
pursued by me if you refuse to allow
him to place his a1abaster lips to
mine, and enrapture my immortal
soul by imprinting angelic sensations
of divine bliss upon the iudispensa-
bic members Of my human physiog-
Monty, and then kindly allowing me
to takca withdrawal from his bene.

admitted that her objections were

A Hot Bath.

A couple of gentlemen, whom we
shall call John Smith and James
Brown, were seated in the ante-room
Of a bath-house. awaiting their turns
for a bath. After they got tired Of
twirling their thumbs, Smith asked,
Brown whether he preferred a hot or
cold bath. Brown, who was remark
ably fond of running rig on any one,
said lie was partial to hot baths, and
enjoyed them so frequently that he
didn't think there was any other man
in creation that could remain in water
1t the temperature lie ordinarily used.
Smith was one of those kind Of men
who never permit themselves to he
outdone III anything, and one word
led to another, until at length Smith
proposed the following wager, to
which Brown agreed at once:
Two baths, in rooms adjoining,
were to be prepared. Cold water, to
the depth of six inches, to be let in.
They were to enter at the same in
stant--the hot water tap then to he
turned. and the one that first cried
"enougl, y was to pay for supper
and ''tixins." Smith went honestly
to work, entered the bath, and turned
on the hot water. taking special good
care to draw up his legs as far as pos.
sible. Brown turned the hot water
tap, but instead Of permitting the hot
water to remain in the bath, he let it
out BY means ofa contrlvance he man
aged to rig up. The tap was to he
turned" but there was nothing said
about where the water should go.
Brown said to himself:
"If l don't boil that Smith, it will
not he my fault"
Presently Smith found the water
too hot for comfort, and said, How
is it with you. Brown I"
"Hot enough" was the reply. II
shall have to give up right off, if'you
don't,' he continued, as he lay cool
enough at the bottom Of the bath.
Smith was thinking about giving in
beat, but Browns words encouraged
him to hold out a little longer.
"I'm perfectly cool yet" said Smith,
as he writhed and twisted about, land
can stand out two minutes longer, so
You'd better give up, Brown"
"The water is 'tarnal hot, you
know but shall hold out a few Sc
conds longer" said Brown.
Smith could not: With a half-sup-
pressed cry Of pain he sprang from
the hot water literally parboiled Has
tily drawing on some ofhis clothing,
he entered Browns roou, and saw
him lying very comfortably at the
bottom Of the empty bath, smoking a
cigar. He found that he had been
done brown as we'll as boiled, when
Brown insisted that his tap was turn.
I'll fairly, but as not a word was said
about where the water should 60,
lie preferred passing it through the
plug hole. Smith promises to pay
for the supper as soon as he congeals
which will not be just yet.

The MIss1ssIPP1.--Mr. Bancroft re-
marks in the tenth volume Of his His
tory of the United States, just out:
The Mississippi river is the guar
dian and the pledge Of the union of
the States of America. Had they
been confined to the eastern slope Of
the Alleghenies there would have
been no geographical unity between
them, and the thread Of connection
between lands that merely fringed
the Atlantic must soon have been
sundered. The Father of Rivers
gathers his waters from all the clouds
that break between the Alleghenies
and the further ranges Of tho Rocky
Mountains. The ridges Of the eastern
chain blow their heads at the North
and at the South, so that long before
science became the companion Of man
nature herself pointed out to the bar
barous races how short portages join
his tributary rivers to those Of the
Atlantic coast. At the other side his
mightiest arm interlocks with the
arms Of the Oregon and the Colorado,
and by the conformation of the earth
itself, marshals highways to the Paci-
fic. From his remotest springs lie
refuses to suffer his waters to be d.
vided but as he bears them all to
the bosom of the ocean the myriads
of flags that wave above his head are
all tho enhgns Of one great people.
States larger than kingdoms flourish
| where he passes, and beneath his steps
cities start into being more marvellous
! in their reality than tabled creations
of enchantment. His magnificent val
ley, lying in the best part Of the tenn
perate zone, salubrious, wonderfully
fertile, is tho chosen muster ground
of the most various of human culture
brought together by men summoned
from al the civilized nations of the
earth, and joined in the bonds of com.
mon citizenship by the strong, invis.
ible attraction Of republican freedom
Now that science has come to b. the
household friend of trade and com.
MERGE and travel, and that nature hal
lent to wealth and intellect her con
slant forces, the hills, once walls Of
ldivision, are scaled or pierced or lev
eled and the two oceans, between
which the republic has unassailabl!
intrenched itself against the outward
world, are bound together across tn
continent BY friendly links Of iron.

Mel cod and Kimmell were seized and hnhS

may he supposed to have consclences, we
do not envy the feelings of Douglass ac-
complices in this double ASSASSINATION wheh
thew. come to read his confession. Of the
two, itmay be doubted which was the more
guilty. Douglass had, at least, the Justl-
fication of self-preservation, whlie the ON
ers were urged on by pure thirst OF murder.
The episode, painful rs 1t Is, IS IN all pro
bability only one OF countless simiI@r IN
stances on the records of lynchIng. ne
murderer is the first to direct suspicion to-
v1ard the innocent, and the blind fury of
the mob. bent only on blood, does not pause
to weirh the evidence. How etfectual such
methods are for the suppression OF crlme
NAV be measured from the fact that IN COM
munities where lynching IS most frequent
crime fIourishes most defiantly. The mob
spirit. which falls with great gustO and
cheerfulness upon the bOnnd captive,

any force 4 free and armed desperate. For
example. in Missouri, another State motor

spectacle of the Governor appealing to the
Legislature for an armed force to capture =
party Of ruflians consisting, At the utmost,
of five. These men, for weeks, have been
making the roads Of that State and Arkan-
sas impossible, stopping and plunderIng

and shooting the Getectives-from Chicago
and New York be it uuderstCOd-ScDt IN
pursuit of them. But the ''lynchers'' who
would come forth in great numbers and fe-
rocity to butcher them if once they were
caught for them and tied hand and foot.
manifest a singular unUiliingnesS to at
tempt their capture. And the Governor,
who WAS not long since firing whole vol
levs of proclamations against the mobs who
had butchered unarmed prisoners and Sher
ifs officers IN cold blood, is compelled tc
ask for military protection against five
scoundrels who, If there was any redeeming
virtue in lynch law whatever, would have
been disposed of long ago.
The truth is that this whole business oi
lYnching is as base and cOwardly as it /!
cruel and utterly lawless. 1t is :he nature
of mobs all the world oyor 10 be ''tyrant:
