THEY tell of 8 jolly sugar-planter
who, in the days Of specie and slavery,
found himself In New Orleans with
the proceeds of his crop in hif pockets
anxious to invest them in the pursuit
of happiness. Having duly primed
him slf At the ST. Charles, he was
YFanderiAg along the streets IN search
of faro bank, when his attention was
attracted by an Italian who was turn
ing the crank of his hand-organ, on
top of which moved and danced a
number of puppets, one of which held
q plate for contributions. Taxing this
for q novel game of chance, the plan
ter, wholly unsophisticated and more
than half inebriated, resolved to buck
the tiger, and placed SIS piece on the
plate. The italian ground on. the
figure dexterously tilted the money
into basket, the Italian solemnIy
placed 1t in his pocket. "Here goes
to get eveny said the planter, as he
planked . ten. which shared the same
fate. ssEffteen out; here's a twenty"
The imperthrbable Italian pocketed
the twenty and still turned the crank.
The disgusted planter departed with
the remark: ssWell, / never was
lucky, but blamed if ever l see game
before where all the percentage was
in favor of the dealer !" Doesn't it
strike our Republican contempories
that this is about the first time. that
two oh-years came together P World.

THE LARGEST sEKAsG EEGIzE INTHE

Pittsburgh claims to have in process
of construction q pair of engines
which are the most powerful in the
world. Reducing the capacity OF
the largest pumping engines to uni
form lift of one foot in tWenty-four
hours, it is found that the Lehigh
zinc mines will lift three billions four
hundred and fifty-six million gallons !;
the pair at the Chicago Water-Works,
four billions five hundred million gal
Ions the pair at Harlem, Holland,
ten billion gallons; while the new
Pittsburgh engines win lift fourteen
billions two-hundred and forty mill
ion gallons. The pair will weigh one
thousand five hundred tons, and Will
cost S423, $50, The following dimen-

the magnitude; Cranks, nine tons (;

.BETRER WHISTLE THAN WHNE.-As 8
I was taking . walk early in Septem-
Der, noticed two little boys on their
way to school. The smaller one
stumbled and fell, and though he be-
gan to whine in babyish way-not a
regular roaring boy cry, as though he
were half killed, but a little, cross
whine.
The older boy took his hand in a
kind and fatherly way, and said:
ssOh, never mind, Jimmy don't
whine; it is a great deal better to
whistle.
And the cheerful boy began to
whistle ia the lnerriest way.
Jimmy tried to join in the whistle.
81 can't whistle as nice as you, Char
lie, said he, ssmy lips won't pucker
up good
sfOh, that is because you have not
got all the whine out yet" said Char
lie, "bnt you try a minute, and the
whistle viii drive the whine away"
So he did, and the last i saw or.
heard of the little fellows, they were
whistling away as earnestly as though
that were the chief end of life. l
learned lesson which I hope / shall
not soon forget, and it called out these
few lines, which NAV possibly cheer
another wilmer of mature years, as
this class is by no means confined to
the children.

The Hanging Of n school Teacher for the
Murder Of His Father-in-Law.
Parsons (Kansasl Cor. New York sun
In Labette County. about twelve
miles east of this town, yesterday, a
double tregedy was enacted. On the
previous night, John r.. Pierce, a
school teacher, slept in the house of
his father-in-law, Anthony Amen,
with his (Pieree's) little child. In the
night the child was sick and trouble
some, and Pierce was SO rough in his
treatment of the little sufferer that his
father-in-laW demonstrated. The next
day Piorce approached Amen and
said, tsD-n you, you have reported
that I was. trying to smother my child
and now you must take it back or |
will kill you right here"
Amen replied that he had not given
currency to such report, and would
not take it back, as he had nothing to
take back. Thereupon Pierce drew
his navy revolver and shot his father
in-law through the breast. In the
evening Mr.. Amen died. The mur-
derer fed and concealed himself in
the grass; but vigilance committee
found his hiding place, and took him
before 3 Justice of the Peace for trial
last night, guarded by four men with
muskets, Soon after the trial was
commenced men on horseback began
to file in, and shortly afterwards one
hundred men surrounded the Court
room Ia country school-house) and
qnietlyi took the murderer out to a
shady nook and hanged him to the
limb of an oak by the roadside. They
then rode away leaving the body
dangling in tbs air.
