While on the Peninsula during the
war, AN officer came across u private be
lodging to one of the most predatory
companies of the Irish brigade, with the
likeness bodies Ct a goose and hen tied
together by the legs, dangling from his
musket. "Wherc did You steal those,
you rascal" "Failh, | was marchinc .
along with the Color Sergcnt Mcguire,
and the goose-bad cessto it-came out
and Kissed at the American flag" "But
the hen, sir; how about her." t.The

An old man from Vermont was bca,

An old man from Vermont was bca,
out of $3.50 on an incoming train yes,er-
day morning. The old fellow said he
had read about monte men in the pa.
pers, but had no idea that the slick tel
lows he was talking to belonged to tha,
kind of a crowd. The worst feature OF
the affairsis, las far IS the old man is con-
cerned-here we will speak gravely-he
was on his way to Kansas 10 have a
tombstone erected over the grave of his
wife, who is buried in that State, and
the money he bet was for the purpose OF
paying for it. The old fellow can row
so it, as he has been party to the crime
of robbing cemetery.-JoRrnaicf Com

4 RicH JogZ.-The people OF Fair
field are splitting their sides oyer good
Joke on . prominent citizen of that place,
who with a hearty good will joins the
laugh a.ains; himself. A few days ago
be brought ms wife 10 Little Fails, both
having shopping TO DO. Finishing his
crrands, he hi;chcd UP his team, and,
completely forgetting his better hall,
who was still among the dry goods
stores, he travelled home, put ont the
horses, and went TO work doing the
"chsres" about the BAN. l
Mis.i lg her liegc lord, the wife soon
ascertained that he had started for home,
and procuring horse and buggy at the
livery stable, she started after him. She
reached homo while he vas at the .oarn,
and it was not till he cane - the house
and was ACTUALLY; Confronted by the for
gotten s.,..uco s.i her bundies, that
.'ca-,rasroSs him" ,hat there had been a
,n:staL.c som cwhcre. As he never touches
....c ardent, it is clear case OF forsscitul-
ness.
The above is nearly cqlaiel By TIL
case of Il lad who came from the coun-
try Il short time since expressly for DR..
otebbins TO visit a patient in his family,
and went back home entirely forgetting
his GRAND.
We should have hcs;.a:ed to acccp;
both of the above as entirely correct had
we not known many similar instance
on the part Of our most thoughtful sub
scrbcra, who have come To town, time
after time, purposciy to pay their sub
scriptioas and have gone home without
even squirting towards the printing
oiiice.-Liftls Fail Journal.

The Danger ahead.

The Chicago tribune has been study
ing tie Communist exhibitions and dc
clarations ia that city and elsewhere,
and it has come to The onclusion tina,
there is danger ahead. Il says:
"lf the struggle must come, It should
not find either government or society
anpreparcd for it. Organization must
be met by organization, and force
by force. Men whohave accoumula;'
cd property must be prepared 10
defend it rs well against domestic
as foreign invaders. They must Tight
tor itifnecessary, whit a better organ
iza:ioa andIn more determined spirit
than those who woueJ fight 10 wrench
it from them. We have already had the
tirstwarning. If it be allowed TO pass I'M
needed the second viii be lost upon US,
and some day We shall be surprised at
what we may already forcsee. Com
munism is hydrahcaded, and its venom
has tecn and is now being disclosed II,
places whcrs it WAS not suspected. Socie-
ty has numbers on its side, but umbers
without organization are chaotic and
inefficient. Communism is constantly
gaming organization, and has all the
desperation of those who have every
thing to gain. 1t is time that every
State in the Union should go honestly
to work to prepare for the onset Of the
followers OF Kari Marx, for they mean
businessmen in Paris and Berlin mere
Is, but in New York and Chicago.

Pablo Funds Used to pay for "Pr9oarlns
cyisl::!or'

Topeka, Jan. l6.-Your correspondent,
has just finished an examination of the
vouchers in the auditors Office, certified
as correct and just by ex-president Deni
son, Of the agricultural college. find
that out Of the 1872 appropriation Of iif
teen thousand dollars tor fencing and
improving the state farm, three hundred
and forty dollars were allowed persons
connected with the management of the
college tor servicesfn procuring legisia-
ton. 1t is supposed that tho so-ealled
service was 10 procure the passage OF
appropriation bills. The vouchers show
that +. Yale, superintendent OF hor,i-
culture, received fifty dollars; Alfred
Gray got fifty dollars; Il. ID. Parker
thirty-onc dollars and eighty cents; ex-
President Denison, forty-siX dollars and
seventy-fire cents J. Wheeler, tor SER
vices OF the same kind, rendered IN Is
73, received ono hlndred and fifteen
dollars and fifty eents. Wheeler has
taken an active part in the reform move
ment and has been immortalized by the
following verse in the grangers serenads
TO his love:
''sweet sniler, grasp her b. the horns; 80
Dear Wheeler. hold her by the TAIL
And let m. safely at between,
And calmly dA my milking psn !"
Dear Wheeler was one of the regents
Of the college, and rather doubled up on
his compatriots in the amount ofservice
rendered and pay received. The words,
''for procuring legislation" are iegibiy
inscribed on the vouchers aud admit OF
NO mistake in their construction.
The gross misuses OF the peoples
money is apparent in this instance and
doubtless rigid investigation will
follow.

A DESPERATE ENCOUNTER.

Major Geo. E. Ferrend, of Virginia CITY
Nevada, man well known everywhere on the
Pacific coast, shot hmselfin the head last week
iohictipp wound which soon proved fatal. IL
noticing his career the Virginia City Enterprise
relates the following
In CamptouvlIIe, California, in 1858 or 1859
he had q terrible personal encounter with a maj
of desperate character, and 10 the battle re
ceiyed horrible wound with an axe 1t ap'
pears that he had some trouble with this mat
and it was agreed that when they again met they
should meet fighting" The desperate, armed
with an axe, shortly after came into saloon,
where he saw the Major sitting 10 his shirt
sleeves. As he advanced the Major arose and
brew large knife The man with the, axe
moved cautiously forward, holding aloot his
terrible weapon The Major stood perfectly
uotioDless, warily watching the eyes OF bis
approaching foe. The only movement ne
made was to constantly turn the wrist Oh
the hand that held the knife. SO that the
weapon was ceaselessly moving and flashing
back and forth. fhe man advancing with
the axe at last could no longer retraln from
casting glance at the weapon thus flashed
before his eyes, and the moment he did Sc
the Major spraug forward with the leap OF
q tiger and drove his knife, not only through
the heart OF DIS Zoe, out tuFOu9A uts "uoie
body, the point projecting at his back. But
quick as had been the movement, bis oppoo'
nent was almost as alert-the blows OF both
men being struck almost at the same instant.
The handle of the axe struck the Major on the
shoulder, while the whole blade of it was
buried in the small of bis back, penetrating
and cutting one of his kidneys Both men fell
TO the floor together, and for time it was
thought that both we're dead; but contrary to
the expectations Of all the Major recovered
from bis fearful wound in due time, and was
as ready for fresh adventures, military or other
wise, as before. ..... !,
70 give sketch of even half of the Majors
many exploits would require whole columns,
indeed pages of this paper. All are now ended
and by his own hand. There we're rumors Of
financial embarrassment abroad yesterday, and
all manner of coojectures we're indu! ged in by
those in search of cause for the fearful deed
but the one We have given is proba bly, more
nearly correct than any other, that he feared
he was losing his sanity and would be sent 10
an insane asylum-he concluded to end his life
while he wac yet sufficiently in his right mind
to do 80. Major Ferrend was as brave man
as ever lived, and was man highly esteemed
by all who knew him, and particularly by his
old comparisons 10 arms. His death has greatly
shocked the whole community.
