THAT UAMACA.-Our friend W. a.
Grow has hammock. Not one of
your onc-horsc, homemade affairs,
hut regular South American seal
grass hammock. Having heard how
the beautiful scnoritas of the Span
ish Main, with cigarette and fan, list
lessly lollcd in dreaming revcrics and
pulled their troubles away from their
,azily swinging hammocks all the day
long; how on that amourous couch of
sca-wced and air, the gazelle-cycd
maidcns sang their sweet songs of
wooing to senors brave and brown,
and how side by side the hot-blooded
lovers of that tropical cline snapped
each other their legends of love, the
special hammock reporter for the
TINES was detailed to inspect that
hammock and make his report. The
Spanish name is "hamaca," and our
reporter found it swung between and
under the grateful shade of two cot
tonwoods. He had never seen u
"hamaca" before, and as innocent Of
experience as Virginia editor is of
religion, our reporter at once mounted
chair and put No. II brogan into
that bed of sea-weed as he would have
put it into a saddle stirrup. Stirling
the ground on the back of his head,
the first fall didn't hurt him much !;
but when he got up and tried to ride
clothcs-pin fashion, that "hamaca"
bucked like black Spanish mule.
Those who have straddled a black
Spanish mule know how our reporter
felt when he lit on his left-thumb UNI
der that "damhamaca." And still the
prospect was inviting. Our reporter
don't let anything get away with him
not even a hammock. Truth crush
ed to the earth will rise again. So
with our reporter, every time. He
next essayed to crawl into it horizon
tally, and after falling over and under
it nine times, he finally made the
rifle. He pulled swing rope. He
swung and he sang and he swang and
ne sung and had just started out with
that song where "In slumbers of mid
night the sailor boy lay" when the
owner Of the machine came along
and asked him what the deuce he was
lying there on the ground and pulling
that hammock rope for9 Our re-
porter in falling over it the tenth
time struck his head against the body
of cottonwood tree, and on waking
"p forgot that he had failed.

How He Does It.-When Cleo
patrs; the beautiful and facinating
Queen of the Nile, to crafty her
vsnity and to please her lover, dis
solved . pearl and drank to the
health Of Marc Antony, that glori-
Gus embodiment of love and passion
imagined that genius had invented a
draught to make the gods Jealous
and angels thirsty. Think Of drink
ing liquid pearls!-think of slipping
from golden goblets the wine of
Elysian fields! dream of quafiing
the sparkling Nectar of Bacchus the
god of flowing rivers of wine! Yet
do not be surprised when we point
to a place where CleOpatra's fame
would have faded and her liquid
jewel would have been cast away AZ
tasteless-where Bacchus himself
would have turned his sparkling
rivers into irregating bitches and
tasted of them nevermOre! lis
the Chrysopolis, on Main street, and
the scienced fingers of =" Lester " are
the magic wand that turns sorrow
into singing, thirst into safety and
various compounds Of GOODNESS into
draughts that are transport to hap
piness and a continued blessing to
thirsty humanity. Ask Lester for a
milk punch, sherry cobbler, or the
fancy drinks of the season, and
you'll get it. The TINES boys are
at this minute drinking his health.

A STRANGE SroRT.-In her last let
ter from Paris to the Philadelphia
Press, Mrs Lucy Hooper relates the
following One Of the strangest and
most horrible Of sensational incidents
took place the other day at Puteaux.
A party of children who were playing
in the environs discovered floating in
the air, and partly entangled amid the
branches of a tree, white parcel up
borne by means Of some twenty or
thirty little toy-balloons, which were
attached to it The attention of the
police being called to this singular eb
ject, it was brought down and the
package opened, which proved to con-
tain the corpse of new born infant.
Investigations into the matter brought
to light the following facts: The child
was that of a poor toymaker and his
wife. Just after the confinement of
he latter the husband had died sud
denly, and all the household goods and
chattles had been siezed for rent. The
unhappy woman was driven mad by
this accumulation Of misfortunes; she
killed her infant, and then went out
and threw herself into the river, leav-
ing behind her written paper in
which she declared her intention of
committing suicide, and said that she
chad gotten her baby all ready to go
up to heaven" A sadder tale with a
stranger termination it would be hard
to find. The toy balloons evidently
had formed part Of the dead husbands
stock in trade.

LITTLE Rock, February 12.-The
grand jury have concluded their inves-
LEGATION of the charge of number of
ex federal soldiers that re- ign Of ter
ror existed in this State, and made
their report to day,in which they state
that about forty of the parties were
examined, and the jury was unable,
after diligert questioning, to find a
single instance in which any man had
been deprived of his right to vote or
any other but on the contrary, unuau~
al quiet prevailed. TIE report con
cludes:
The charges made as to Intimidation
and terrorism were confessedlv based
not upon personal Or positive informa
ton, but merely upon public rumor,
and the evidence as to the existence Of
secret organization known as the
White League of any similar organiza'
ton was absolutely nothing. We
could find but one man who knew Of
any one said to belong to such an Or
ganization to which he belonged and
upon which was based the rumor Of his
being White Lacquer was the Knights

cd with Thompson on the improperly OF
his conduct. but that worthy being deaf
to reason and entreaty, there was nothing
left but for MI Grim TO call officer Lam
gley, who proceeded to arrest Thompson
and give him his civil rights. He locked
him up for the night it, Jail, and on We'd
nesday morning he was brought before
Justice Cgcbs who fined him S. and cost
and to give security for his good behayi-
our for II mouths. In default of the lat
ter article, which no one seemed disposed
to furnish the coloured gentlen an, he
was sent 10 Jail until the requirements are
complied with. Subsequently he was
released on bail. Thus Mr.. Thompson was
too fast in claiming his rights under the
bill, and got what he justly deserved, as a
disturber OF the peace. Winchester Nous.
