The lnseleSce Of Humor.

: How much of all that passes for humor-
ous il simply profane, or indecent, or bru-
tall Half the humorous stories that pass
current in the world are unit for publica-
ton. The great humorists from Rabelais
to Swift or Sterne are no longer quotable
in their naked reality, and as the world be-
comes more decOrous humOr becomes
tongue-tied and obsolete. OF the jes e that
survive, half, again, owe their merit to their
inhumsnity. Look at any of the current
stories of Douglass Jerrold, who passed for
a humorist in these later days. Every re-
corded jest Of his that I have seen ID
gross incivility made palatsble by pun.
The substance of each phrase is: you are
q fool" The art is in 80 wrapping the in
science in play of words that the hearers
laugh, and the victim is deprived of sym
patty. cit was your father, then, who was
not so handsome!" is ono Of Tslleyrand's
brilliant retorts to man who spoke Of his
mothers beauty. What is this but to say:
"You are an ugly BEAST" and yet to evade
the legitimate resentment OF the sutterer9"
If the poor wretch had some harmless van
ity, and fancied that some reflection of q
mothers beauty still fingered upon his mis-
shapen features, would any mau of decent
klnd-heartedneas tear away this poor little
salve to elf-esteem for the sake OF . laugb9

The Fate of General Custer.

The fate Of General Custer ia sadly felt

aged twenty seven, both unmarried, are the
brothers killed. The brother in-law killed
was captain, and is the husband of Cen

Custer, are with the expedition. Mrs. Gus
ter was the onAy child Of Judge Bacon, Of
Monroe City, Michigan, wbers the parents
OF General Custer aiao reside. His parents
are old and feeble, 10Th being upward Of
seventy. His moth II and all the family
were devotedly attached to the General,
and his awful death will doubtless kill his
mother. As son, he hOnored his father
and mother to the full letter and spirit of
the law given on Mount Sinai. But, ALA!
his days were not IA long in the land a a

duty called him to battle her distress was
next to the bottomless depths Of anxiety

(SufbOrd,s Tombstone,

What may be called the epilogue Of the
GuibOrd drama took place June q, and
consisted in dep0siting an immense tomb.
stone upon the grave of the prosecuted
printer. The tombstone chosen was one OF
the blocks of the stone sarcophagus which
was cut last autumn and destined to inclOse
the coffin of Guibord. Two immense blocks
of granite were hewn out, and cavity
was cut out in each of them, in which
the coffin was to be placed as o pre-
caution against the disinterment of Gui-
bord's remains by fanatics. On the eve OF
burial, however, in obedience to the urgent
demonstrations of Mayor Kingston, the
sarcophagus was abandoned. Mr.. Bois seau,
the superintendent of the 1nstitut Cana
diem. applied at the Office of the fabrlque
to obtain q permit for the entry Of the
no response to make to his application, and
that they ignored the Institut Canadien,
and consequently would neither grant nor
refuse the permit. The block of granite
was lying in the yard of Mr.. Robert Reid,
marble cutter, St. Catherine street, who
was charged with the preparation OF the
sarcophagus last year.
Early this morning four of Mr.. Rei1's men
loaded the block upon . carriage and con-
veyed it around the mountain to the Roman
Catholic cemetery. The stone is seven feet

and one foot nine inches high, and weighs
about two and half tons. At ten o'clock
Mr.. Reid, accompanied by Mr.. Boisseau,
went to the Catholic cemetery in carriage
BY way Of Mount Royal cemetery. Ga
reaching the ground they found the work
men already rolling the stone into its place.
They said that no one had interfered with
them, and indeed no one knew what was on
the carriage, as the stone was covered by q
wooden box.
Soon after the party reached the grave,
Mr.. Des Rochee, the guardian Of che ceme-
terry, came up and asked if they were going
to but it upon Gnibord's grave. They re-
piled in the affirmative, whereupon hs
turned and walked of without saying any
thing moro. In order to ascertain the Goa.
dition of the Portland cement, with viii n
the coffin had been surrounded, Mr.. Reid
dug down to it, and found 1t quite Inn.

WlnAsld Scott,s Early Friend.

Major Richard Houston, who tor fifty
four years was an inmate of the Pennsyl-
vania Hospital for the Insane, died in the
institution last Friday evening. The major
was born. in 1856. in Savannah, Georgia.
His early tendencies we're martial in
character, and he joined the regular army
a. private, from which position he rose to
the early part of the war of 1872, and
would probably have been distinguished
on the pages of history but for his untime-
" mental affection. He was the superior
officer of General Winfield Scott, and was
80 warm o friend Of that soldier that the
latter chose him a. his second in Q duel
which he fought in Natohez, Mississippi.
The affair of honor was brought about by
Scott's attachment to . lady who Was 81.
ready the sffisnced bride of ono Lieutenant
Wimbledon. 1t was . desperate contest,
and resulted, after . second fire, in the
serious woundiDg of the General. He was
shot in the forehead, and the disfguring
mark was perceptible till the day Of his
death. The climax of tho meeting seems
to have been the initial cause Of Major
Houston's lunacy, for, . ahors time after
ward, he BETRAYED symptoms Of alarming
ment, his condition dswned upon him, he
resigned his commission and came to Phila-
delphia. Some friends subsequently, put
him in the Pennsylvania Hospital, 1T Eighth
and Spruce streets, in 1924. In 1853 he was
taken to the aeylum across the river. During
forty years the majors board was paid p1nc-
tually by some person or persons In New
Jersey, but for the last fifteen years he has
been . pensioner on the institution. Hin
many entlemanly traits, interesting poetic
disposition, the fund Of aneodote which he
possessed, and the general jolly natufo Of
the man made him . favorite with his ut
tendants and the ph ysicia1s Of the institu-
ton. 1t vas his custom every morning to
collect his fellow-suferers and "put them
| through" the process of broOm-handle
drill. Since 1860 he recalled nothing Of
his former life. He had no prem0nition of
his death, and only two hours before he
breathed his last he. requested Of Mr..
Mealey, his nurse. - chew Of tobacco" His
successor in priority of residence at the in
stitrtion is David Rogers, who is more than
| asylum for fourteen years; was once q
| wealthy and energetic farmer in New JeF-
sew, and ia . connection of an old and
| highly respectable Quaker family Of that
State. He imaRines himself himself to be
| King David, and to be likewise the objeoi
| Of universal calumny. He makes constant
| warfare against hiee, and boasts that he
has been chosen by Providence to rid the
earth Of them. AT times he is violent, and
! is worked into paroxysns of passion by his
| recital of the Bible. He can repeat Holy

citing, verbatim, whatever he may read

How the Loudon Times Reported the
Cincinnati Convention.

The London Times cabled full accounts
of the Cincinna convention. On the four
teenth, fifteenth and sixteenth it had all
the news. The dispatches appear to have
fallen into the hands of some one at the
Times office who knew very little about
the intricacies of Republican convention.
Here are some of the blunders of the editor:
1.-THE committee on credentials reported
in favor of admitting the Florida. District
of Columbia, delegates." 1.-The Blaine dele.
