Cry INGENUITY.-Our teilOwtowns-
man, Mr.. Christian Siebkc, has patented
a rein-holIer which for utility and prac-
ticabie use must receive the Commenda-
ton of all who have occasion to drive
either for pleasure or business, but AT all
times desire that they may feel secure
from the accidents which are apt to occur
from fractions horse.
His patent consists OF Il frame OF IRON
which he applys to the dash board
in manner which is perfectly
secure, and cangot be detached from the
vehicle to which it may be attached.
Two horizontal springs stand upright IN
which the rcins rest; these springs are
so situated that it is impossible for the
horse to get his tail entangled in the
relns and thereby cause an accident, as
frequently occurs, and in stopping the
gus rupeI all that Is necessary Is to
place the reins in the spring. You then
stop the horse, and, SO rest
the lines, that it is i'm
possible for him to start, or for the
lines to drop from the wagon to which
he may be hitched.
The invention displays considerable
ingenuity, and its usefulness cannot be
contradictrd. We wish Mr. Sickle sue
cess pccuniurly, and we can insure to al
who use the invention safeguard to
obituaries from accidents by runaways.

THE PROCEEDINGS.


The mayor of the city, in anticipation
of the TumOred invasion by the Great
King of the Carnival, called his great
Sanhedrin (the common council) to-
gether IN solemn conclave just inside
the great gate of the city in front of the
Peabody hotel. There his trembling
council met in majestic though fearful
conclave, anxiously expecting and
dreading the approach Of the mighty
hero, who had subdued other cities
worthy of his steel, and whose victories
over municipalities, municipalities and
powers had come to his ears. AfteI
awaiting his dreadful approach, expect
ing every minute to be the next, the city
herald responded to the four terrible
trumpetsrs laundering aloud at the city
gates with their Gathering gongs. The
herald, in alarm, gave to the modern
monarch of Memph. lin common par
lance the mayor OF Memphis) the news
of the presence Of our dreaded foe. Oul
worthy mayor ordered his trumpters tC
sound blast in reply, and his herald tC
read aloud the following message:

After the King entered, he was met
by q Bachaute and three handsomely
dressed pages, who had stood
ready at the gate to wait upon hi

and comely youth, approached, anC
handing him a cup Of wine, thus ad
dressed the Monarch:

our earliest and honorable custom, AM
in behalfof our worthy Mayor Loagu
and other city dignitsries, present
you our "Momus Cup" filled with win
of our cloister vintage, as token of on

sented to Mr. Joe Specht four years ag,
by the order, as testimonial Of thei
appreciation of his services in the rOya
family of mirth-and drained its con
tents. When he had gulped tn
sparkling wine, the page said: "Lont
