Miss COriSande.

Miss Corisande was born only two
years earlier than her brother Tom
When Tom was ten years old she gloried
because she was twelve When Tom
was fourteen she confessed to sweet six
teen. When Tom boosted of eighteen
she timidly acknowledged herself past
nineteen. When he came home from
college, with moustache and vote,
and had a party in honor of his twenty
first birthday, she said, to her friends,
What a boyish fellow he is; who would
think he was only year younger than
II" And when Tom declared he was
twenty-five and old enough to get mar
ried, she said to a gentleman friend,
Do you know, I feel savagely jealous
to think of Tom getting married? But
then suppose twins are always more
attached to each other than other broth
ers and sisters.' And two years later,
at Toms wedding, she said with a girl
ish vivacity to the wedding guests,
" Dear old Tom, to see him married to-
night, and then think how, when he
was only five years old, they brought
him in to see me, his baby sister, You
know Miss Corisande, probably; she

An enterprising female was observed
in Dayton; she had large basket filled
with provisions on her right arm, and
grasped an umbrella in her right hand !;
her left arm encircled a watermelon;
the left hand clutched a portemonnaie,
and she carried her door-key IN her
mouth. Moreover she wore a suit with
long trail, and that trail she tucked
around the handle of her market
basket. e.

The Felicianas are rebuked in tenn
perate language by clear headed
Southern man, whom President Hayes
has wisely put in his Cabinet. The
affair need not be converted solely
to purposes of party capital. There
ought to be, within the Felicianas, q
sufficient number of even ordinarily
sagacious counsellors who must realize
how utterly indefensible and unrea-
sonable it is to expect good results
from any exercise of mob law what
ever. In this instance a voluntary
grist has been forwarded to the " out
rage mill,n of character so authentic
as to forbid any attempt to break its
full force against the fair fame of a
constituency in the complete enjoy
ment of its long demanded "home
rule" Let the visa men of the Fell
cianas speak out, organize if need be,
give loyal support to the State and
national administrations, and compel
the redress of grievances through civ
ilized and legitimate agencies. Down
with mob law, and up with the stand
ard of justice, then prosperity will
come, and reign in the Felieianas.

A good deal of very tiresome rub
bish in the way of caricaturing the
conversation of colored people is to be
found in the productions of funny
newspaper men. A sample from the
Washington correspondence of one of
our contemporaries illustrates the
worst and most extlavagant style:

The $ them referred to are Du-
mont, Stamps, Newman and Lewis,
colored politicians from Louisiana,
and this sprightly correspondent gives
long dialogue in which he seriously
claims TO ''give the words of one
of the party. Stamps and Lewis are
in great measure self educated men.

language, free from grammatical
errors and above the average purity
of pronunciation. Newman is ply
