How BUTLER ROBBED Two New Or
LEANS MEN.-One of the New Orleans
gentlemen present at late social party
in that city declared that Gen Butler
had robbed him of $4,000. To this
another New Orleans gentleman replied
''Now Bill, what is the use of your say
ing that ? He robbed me just as much
as he did you. You see." turning to
the strangers present, Butler had got
hold of a subscription paper to aid the
confederate cause; my name was down
for S25, 200 and so was Bills. Butler
called US altogether, and addressed US
after this fashion-sGentlemen, you in
tended to give this money to the con-
federate cause. Now, that has gone up
in this city, and, as | don't wish &C de-
prive you of exercising your benevolent
intentions. | will permit you TO turn
over the money for the support of the
poor That is the way in which We
were robbed

Il GoTs NUFF Nit SUCH FOOLISH
NESS. 1t is pleasant to become a pa
rent twice as pleasant to be blessed
with twins but when it comes to trip
lets, we are little dubious. Now, there
dwells in Jefferson county, Wisconsin, a
German, who, few years ago, was pre-
sented by his wife with son. Hans
said to her
Katrina, dat ish goot"
A couple of years later the good wife
placed before his astonished eyes pair
of twins.
"Vell." said Hans, 'dat vosh peter
ash der odder times | thinks more ash
ten glasses of peer on dat"
But the good woman next slime gave
birth to triplets, and that made him
'sphoke nit his mout shust liddle.'
"Mein Cott, Katrine vat ish de mat

ness fore der come more ash village

The KENTUCKY LoTTERY.-There is
an ancient legend which afirms that all
persons devoid of rational understanding
have not yet left this sublunary sphere
or, more briefly, that the fools are not
all dead yet. Quite number of persons
belonging to this am1able race invest
their money regularly in lottery schemes
and they are so strongly confirmed in
their folly that it is useless to argue
with them. The lottery just drawn in
Louisville for the benefit of the Public
Library of Kentucky is fair example
of this favorite species of swindle.
Sixty thousand tickets were advertised
to be sold, and the drawings were to
have aggregated $1,5OO.OOO. A very
short time before the sale the managers
announced that as only forty-fve thous-
and tickets had sold the prizes would
be shaved down to $1,125,OOO. The
interested ticket holders are now anxious
to find out, in the first place, how it
happened that exactly $4,000 tickets
were sold, and in the second place, why
it was that the remaining tickets were
destroyed privately instead of publicly.
These are certainly interesting points.
Accepting the managers statement,
however, the $4,000 tickets sold for
S2,25O,O0O, and S1,25O,OOO left after
paying the prizes leaves a very hand
some margin for profit to somebody.
As the library, which is the supposed
beneficial, is said after all the lottery
schemes in its aid, to be still wretched
affair, not worth over $4,000 at the
most, it would be pleasant thing for
the public to know where the spoils 60
to.

PETS IN THE HoUsE.-The house where
pets are made much of is usually cheer
full house-not only because they help
to make it so, but because, as their pres
ence indicates, kindness and gentleness
and all the elements of a happy home
are to be met there. The great silken-
cared settlers greet you Hospitality at the
gate; far is suspicion from their nature /;
they accompany you to the door; and as
it opens. the thrill of bird-song gives
suggestion of summer and flowers and
sunshine, though it be the dreariest day
of November the cat, asleep on the
cushion, does not open an eye at you !;
but the little Spitz in the window bris-
ties up inquiringly to know if it be a
trustworthy friend of the house, like the
faultless watchdog that he is ; and far
away in the region of the kitchen poor
Polls infectious laugh is heard and
you cannot help feeling that here is a
place where warm hearts and genuine
natures keep little corner of the world
fresh and sweet.

EFFECT OF AMMONIA ON WHOoPING
CoUGH.-A writer in the Medical Jour-
nal, London, states that in cases of
whooping cough in the last stage-that
is after the third week-he has had one
ounce of the strongest liquid ammonia
put into gallon of water in an open
pan, and the steam kept up by means
of half brick made red hot throughout,
and put into the boiling water contain
ing the ammonia, the pan being placed
in the middle of room, into which the
patients were brought as the ammonia
steam was passing off. The method, he
says, was used in the evening, before
bedtime, and it proved SO efhcacious in
abating the spasmodic attack, and after
three or four days terminating the NAL
ady, as to establish, beyond doubt, the
value of this mode of inhaling ammonia
as therapeutic agent in tranquilizing
the nervous system in the whoopiEg
cough.

RATHER SOCIAL GOVERNOR. Cover
nor Powell of Kentucky, was never an
orator. but his conversational, story-tell-
ing and social qualities were remarkable.
His great forte lay in establishing
personal intimacy with any he met, and
in this way he was powerful in election
eering. He chewed immense quantities
of tobacco, but never carried the weed
himself, and was always begging it of
every one he met. His residence was
in Henderson, and in coming up the
Ohio past that place gentleman over
heard characteristic anecdote of him.
A citizen of Henderson, comingon board,
fell into conversation with passenger,
who made inquiries about Powell.
He lives in your place, I believe,
don't he %
eyes, one of our oldest citizens"
Every sociable man, amt he?"

"Well, I thought so; 1 think he is
one of the most sociable men 1 ever met
in my life-wonderfully sociable. l

Springs last summer, and he hadn't
been with me ten minutes when he beg
ged all the tobacco l had, got his feet
up in my lap and spit all over mere

A good little boy out west undertook
to come the G. Washington on his
mother in this way: He cut off the cats
head with the traditional hatchet, and
then hid the defunct feline in the meal
barrel. When the old lady went for
meal to make the hoe cake for the fru-
gal morning repast she discovered that
cat and interviewed her little son. He
said: II did it mother, with my little
hatchet, but I'll be swizzled if | can tell
the whole truth about this affair" Now
most mothers would have kissed that
brave, truthful lad on his noble brow
and kept right ON using the meal out of
that barrel just the same, but this one
didn't. She said, come across my lap,
my son; come across my lap" He
came, and for awhile there rose cloud
of dust from the seat of his trousers
that efcctually hid the son from view,
and the old woman now sports goggles
and is lavish in the use of Petit's eye
salve. That good little boy had pep
pered the seat of his pants.

BUTLER AND HIS PERSONAL DANGEI

BUTLER AND HIS PERSONAL DANGER.
On the 18th of next November he
will be Sc years old. He has never
been sick. His constitution has been
like iron. He has worked for ten years
as few men ever work, even in this busi-
est of lands. His favorite saying has
been that when he retired at night, un-
less he was asleep in five minutes, he
thought something was the matter. He
has enjoyed absolute, uninterrupted
health, and has reveled in it. But
there must be an end to all things, and
especially to overworked men, Butler
has grown obese, and, inferentially,
apoplectic. His political fights begin
to tell on him. The contests at Wor.
oester have help pull him down. The
Simmons fight set his nerves into a
frenzy. His head was clear, but his
blood was hot, and his face llvid at
times. He had wound himself up to a
fearful pitch of excitement. When the
victory was won and the relapse came,
the blood left his face, he became quiet
and seemed to have weakened percepta-
bly,. His friends on the floor said he
looked fifteen years older. But with
his immense interests on his hands there
is no release from the tread-mill-nc
long hours of relaxation. His affairs
are as inexorable as those of an emperor
Some day his life will 60 out like the
light of a hastily snufed candle.

Plutarch says 1.-The eyes of the hog
are so formed and disposed of in the
head, that it is always looking upon the
lowest objects, and can in no manner
contemplate things elevated and lofty.
1t cannot look upward unless thrown
back with its feet upward. Although
this animal is addicted to the most dis
cordant squealing and grunting, yet as
soon as it is laid on its back it is imme-
diately silent, so great is its astonish-
ment at the heavens, to the sight of
which it is unaccustomed, and which
causes such fear that it Is unable to cry. .
