ExoELLEST Acting.

A Yorkshiremau having killed pig,
aud not wishing to divide with his neigh
bors, as was the custom (who by the
way, was a son of the Emereld lsle)
Pat, II give the neighbors, who have
given to me, piece Of my pork, III have
none for myself. Can you tell me what
am to dol
Bedad, sir, said Pat, It's myself that
can do that same thing.
Good, said the Yorkshireman, rubbing
his hands, and looking at Pat. Now tell
me what am to do.
Faith sir, said Pat, sure aud when the
crathur is claned, just be atther hanging
it against the door, where livery mothers
son of them will see 1t, and early in the
morning, before any one is about, get up
and take in your pig aud hide il away !.
Thin when your neighbors come be after
telling them that the pig was stbole.
Capital idea, Patl exclaimed the York
shireman. III do 1t.
So when the pig was cleaned, 1t was
hung mp outside, so that the neigbbors
might see it. The countryman anxiously
awaited the approaching night, and at
last retired to bed, but not TO sleep. Pat,
under the cover Of the darkness of the
night, crept round the house and stole
the pig.
! What was the astonislment Of The
Yorkshireman when, at early dawn, be
arose to hide away the pig, but found no
pig there, can be better imagined than
described. Pat came Ia with his top o
the mornin' to ye, sir, aud giving him .
knowing wink, said:
Master, how about the pigi
Well, Pat, the pig was stolen 10 re.
ality.
Faith, and that sounds jnst as natural
as If you bad lost your pig, said Pat witt
another knowing wink.
But you block head, tell you thl pig
was stolen.
Faith, aud the sorra Bit o me thought
you could act so well just stick to that
it's natural as life.
But, roared the now irate Yorkshire
man, tell you the pig was stolen!
Oeh said Pat, stick 10 il, and yer na
bors will behave ye, aud sorra bit OF !
they'll get. Faith, didn't think ye coulc
do il so well

Two SIDES OF THE SAME SToRY.-The
report of the subcommittee of the Com
mltiee on Louisiana Affairs which was
charged with The investigation of the "Cou-
shatta affair" Of last May, otherwise known
as the shooting Of King and attempted as
sassnaii0n Of the Slate Senator Twitchell,
has made lis appearance with the accom-
panying testimony. The subcommittee,
after failing TO ascertain who the assassin
was, are of the opinion that the testimony
is explicit in showing that the shooting
was not Of a political character, that
Twtchell had made number of persons
enemies within his own political party,
and that threats against his life had been
made by one or moro of these parties.
On the other hand Mr.. Darrall of the
committee who particularly inquired into
the Coushaita outrages, submits separate
paper TO the effect that the murder of King
and The attempted murder OF Twichell was
of political character, and for political
reasons entirely, and, second, that 1t is
very unsafe for member of the republic
can party to actively advocate his princi-
Piles in that part of the state. We are not
able to certify as TO The status aud degree
of reliability TO be placed ON these conflict
ing reports, but we think Windham Coun-
ty people have good reason for believing
the second part, at least, of Mr.. Darrelps
statement 10 lie strictly in accordance with
the facts in the case. Ii not, few more
murders of men from this section would
probably be convincing.

The proceedings at the Republican eau
Gus for choosing delegates to the District
convention, as also that for the cbUice of
delegates TO the recent county convention,
show the existence of clique, who, In re-
venge for the defeat Of their candidate for
tho governorsbip, are determined TO run
the party "machine" at home TO suit them
selves and pay of old scores, as far as pos
sibc. The election of delegates TO White
River Junction was "cut and dried" af.
fair, aud tho names Of the delegates were
known on the morning previous to their
election. They were all Estey" men
and when, in the caucus, some one, out of
nero sport or curiosity, nominated well
known and staunch Republican who did
not favor Mr.. Estey in the recent guborna-
torial canvass, he was unceremoniously
voted wn,-though it would be difficult
to tell what the district convention had TO
do with Mr.. Estey. In the name Of party
unity and political decency we protest
against a resort 10 such tactics by Republic
cans, al this time or at any other time.
II is tho employment of just such selfish
and disreputable measures which gives
the "rolorm" cry of the period its potency
and occasion. Revenge may be sweet, but
it is poor capital to work upon in politics,
as in everything else; and If the party in
Brattleboro il to be run by a clique, no
matter how respectable or high toned, the
result will be that many good Republicans
will hold aloof from The party, or, III their
disgust, join the ranks OF its enemies, i'm
either case working injury to the party and
reducing its proper majorities. Have done,
gentlemen, with this nonsense!
