IT is related that the Postmaster
Of Monticello, Ga, recently perform
ed the feat of reading a letter with.
out hearing its contents. An old wo-
man, who had never been to school
got letter the other day, and asked
the Postmaster to read it for her.
She did not want him to hear it, SO
she took a wad of cotton out of her
pocket and stuffed his ears with it,
She then had him read the letter in a
low voice, and was perfectly satisfied
that the reader did not hear word
of it.

MODERATELY Coon STEPpERs."-
A good joke is told Of a wealthy New

who, shortly after betaking himself tt
his summer residence on Long Island
in April last, was sitting on his piazza
one fine morning, and noticing pair Of
fine steppcrs that we're being driven on
the road in front of the house. The
team consisted of a bay and gray
mare, and the driver was an unassum

The New Yorker noticed them again
on the following day, and was more
than ever impressed with their fine
style and graceful step, and he decided
at once to buy them. Accordingly,
on the next day he stationed himself
at his gate, and when the team came
jogging by, he signaIled the driver IL,

reply. "Send them along down tue

and at length the gentleman seemed
satisfied, and signalled the driver to

'pretty we'll, and will buy them if the

CAPTAIN Webb, the marvellous
swimmer who lately crossed the Eng

muscle, has been examined by dis
tinguisHed surgeon, who reports the
results in the Lancet. The Captain
is said to be 5 feet 8 inches in height;
weight, '2o3 pounds; chest measure,
Al inches; biceps, 134 inches; fore
arm, III inches. One remarkable
thing about the Captains physical
development is his weight, which is
