SOMETHING NEw.-An Austrian pub
Usher advertises for 1877 a hanging
calendar, which is meant to put into the
shade all hitherto seen. On the left Of
the border above the figure is the name
of the saint to whom The day is dedi-
Gated. on the right some golden maxim.
The lower part of the tablet, separated
from the upper by cross rule, is verti-
cally divided into two columns. The
left of these contains course of lessons
in modern languages, lasting up to the
the end of June. If the owner of the
calendar is industrious, and begins
punotually on January /, he will by the
end Of the frst-half year have learned
to speak in six different tongues. The
right-hand columns contain, from Janu-
airy to June, Schiller's collected poems.
From July l to December 81 the left
hand columns the last romance of Jules
Verne, and the right-hand translation
of the most frequent foreign words &C.
curing in German, followed by an
epitome of universal history from Char
lemagne to the end of 1876. The backs
of the leaves of the block contain inform
alton on mythology and geography,
"every man his own lawyer" ready
reckoning tables and useful receipts in
cooking and housekeeping. That is not
all. The leaves are so prepared that
during the summer months they can be
stepped in q saucer of water as fy-kil-
lers, while from October l to the end of
April they can b made into cigarettes.

Sc The London Court Journal de.
MES that the American custom of wear.
ing citizens clothes at court had any
better origin than accident. 1t says
that the fact that the American minister
always appears at court in plain clothes
instead Of in the usual regulation cos
tune is due, not TO the republican
squeamishness of Benjamin Franklin,
as is generally supposed, but to the
laziness of Banjamin Franklin's tailor
Said tailor disappointed Franklin in the
very gorgeous court dress he had or.
dered, and he had no alternative but to
appear in ordinary clothes. He was
shrewd enough to make a very great
merit of what was to him very un'
pleasant necessity. The fame Of the
republicans courage rang out through
the world, and from that time down
ward American ministers have claimed
as privilege what was originally dis
agreeable accident.

ANovEL PLEASURE JAUNT.-The Stock
ton Independent says that Dio Lewis, OF
Boston, with party of ten ladies and
gentlemen, are making tour through
the State, in rather a novel, although
exceedingly comfortable manner. They
are provided with carriages, wagons,
saddle horses and full outfit with all
the paraphernalia of a camp, including
tents, bedding, etc., and journey from
place to place by slow and easy stages,
camping on the way and carrying with
them all the conveniences and comforst
of life. They are thus entirely indepen.
dent of all the ordinary routes and re.
strictions of travel, and they. can GO
where they like, stay as long as they
please and move on when they happen
to be in the mood for SO doing. We
can imagine no more agreeable or thor
ough method of travelling and sight see.

on Saturday, pitching their tents on the

oaks west of the Female Insane Asylum
building, and yesterday "folded THEN

to Oregon. DR.. Lewis is steadfasi
advocate of pure air and the "sun

no question that the party have chosen

The II. D. Appropriation Bill.
WASN'T AFRAID OF BEES

As they saw the bees passing them
selves around Familiarity, the lady ut
tered q timid "Good gracious! we
can't get by there !" Pshaw! ejac-
ulated her lord and master, "don't
be foolish. Bees never moles! any one
that does not modest them. They are
perfectly harmless if yon let themaIone.
All YOU need is Il little ne.ve; when
they come buzzing about You walk
right along, and don't SO muca rs make
o motion toward them, even ii they
should light on your face. Come on,
now, if you haven't nerve, just look at
me, and see how simple it is" With
a pardonable feeling of pride in her
noble husband, the wife watched him
as he moved steadily along toward the
tree where the. greater portion OF the
insects were having rehearsal a la
Gilmore's band, while number were
doing the Skidmore Guard on the
fence, and still others were sliding
around in the air, evidently on picket
duty, humming We'll march around
Jerusalem, Seeing that her husband
was not annoyed at the little fellows,
the lady followed him, but took the
precaution to throw light shawl over
her head and shoulders, leaving only q
peek-hole for one eye. Running up
to her husband-who was walking
along looking cross-eyed at a bee which
had lit upon his nose, and wondered
whether the cussed little creature was
going to give him one, just for luck,
aud thinking how sweet he would look
with proboscis resembling quarter
section of lobster-she inquired, John,
amt you afraid ?" not thinking of any
thing else appropriate to the occasion.
He curled up his lip and the tip of his
nose in disdaia at the thought, and just
then he 20: it from the boa on the
upper deck! His wife will never forget
the exclamation he gave utterance to, and
the bystanders generally remarked that
it was exhaustive, and fully did justice
to the occasion. He struck at the bee
viciously, and in a second the whole
Skidmore Guard, Jerusalem warblers,
and Gilmore band were upon him.
They took him on the face aud hands,
nibbled his ears, prospected his back,
ran up his nose and sank more shafts
on the top of his bald head than there
are on the Comstock lode. If he had
been possessed of thousand hands he
could not have kept the enemy of, and
If his name had been Job he could not
have helped calling down maledictions
1 upon all the women as he heard his
wife advising under her shawl, "Don't
hit at them, John! Don't fight them!
There was general roar of laughter
from all the spectators as the man Of
nerve" took to his heels, his arms work
ing like an old fashioned windmill dur
