Three-(ard Monte.

4 correspondent of the Louisville
Courier Journal, under date of Feb
ruary II, writes a long letter from
this place, in which he gives account
of an interview with George II. DevOl,
famous old-time Mississippi River
sport" He publishes a number of
instances in which Dcvol had swindled
umsuspecting parties out of large sums
of money, and tells it with as great
gusto as if he was relating some heroic
incident. This accomplished manip-
ulator of three-card monte, has been
making his headquarters here 70.
some time past, and, in connection
with accomplices, branches out on the
different roads from here, frequently
taking in green-horns, as he did a
couple coming up from jackson
Tuesday afternoon. We really don't
know that man deserves much SYM
pathy when he bets on another mans
trick, thinking he has got sure thing,
and then loses. Devol is man of
pleasant address, about 45 or 80 years
old, dark sandy hair, light sandy
whiskers, sprinkled with gray, and a
piercing gray eye.

Shooting ARRAY Near Atwood

Shooting ARRAY Near Atwood.
Last Sunday evening W. w. De-
shong and James Morris got into a
row at the residence of Lee Deshong,
near Atwood, in which Morris came
near losing his life, receiving shot in
the left breast, near the shoulder. The
ball only made flesh wonud, and he
is now recovering. Deshong had just
returned from Texas, where he and
Morris had been carrying arms for
each other some time before. The
affray grew out of family troubles.
The air is thick with rumors, but we
decline to give publicity to any of
them just now, as the trial has not yet
taken place. Deshong was arrested,
but the prosecutor was not ready for
trial, and an examination was post
poncd until next Monday, before Esq.
KeatOn.

stringent means to keep the " "soiled
dove" from becoming too bold upon
the streets.
The citizens of Huntingdon exper-
len ,ed a big scare last Saturday, by
an alarm of fire that was sounded
about y o'clock, NJ. The fire was
found to be in the large brick resi-
dence belonging to Mrs COrnelia Griz-
zard, on Nashville street. After a
prompt and vigorous fight on the part
Of the assembled crowd, the flames
were suhdued before they did much
damage The fire originated from
the burning out of chimney.

Gentlemen When you came into
our town and announced to the pub
lie through our paper and your circu-
lars that you could cure the piles in
their worst form, with but little incon-
venience to the patient, | regarded
your statement with many doubts;
to tell the whole truth, l felt a preju-
dice against you, as the statement
seemed an extravagant one; besides,
you were strangers, and | feared there
might be some deception about it.
As L had suffered severely for fifteen
years with the disease, was daily losing
quite an amount of blood and suffer-
ing at times severe pain, both of
which were undermining my health;
with all my misgivings, Gas | WAS con-
sitlered incurable by other surgeons,)
| concluded tc give you trial. You
have done more than you promised,
as in fact | suffered less, very much
less, during your treatment than dur
ing the same length of time preced-
ing it, and am now perfectly well so
tar as the piles are concerned; and
more, my general health is entirely
restored and better than at any time
for the last ten years. ] shall ever
esteem you as not only my own per-
sOnal friends, but friends to the suf-
fering, and ever remember you with
gratitude. Yours truly,
w. e. Turner.

Too ELOQUENT. AN unfortunate
young lawyer was head over heels in
love with beautiful girl and was about
to be married to her. On the eve of the
wedding-day he was called in to defend
an awful miscreant,-a man of thirty,
who had poisoned bis mother and
father. The case seemed lost one,
and when the prosecution had closed
the young lawyer was about giving up
the struggle without an effort. Sud-
denly he perceives in the extremity OF
the courtroom his beloved and her pa
rents, who had come to see what kind
of stuff he was made of. The presence
of the one he worships changes the train
of thought. He feels that he must make
show of talent, and, beginning his
argument, rises to the highest flights OF
eloquence. In word, he succeeds in
showing that the criminal is an upright,
virtuous and much abused man, and OBJ
tains his acquittal. In the evening the
lawyer, with triumphant air, calls at
the house of his future father-in-law,
expecting that his success will insure
him warm reception. To his surprise,
he finds the young girl cold and her
parents much embarrassed. He asks
what this sort of reception means. 'My
friend" said he whom the young man

Russia Leather.

Our late minister to ST. Petersburg.
the Hon. Marshall Jewell, was practi-
cal tanner, and as a thoroughly practi-
cal man, besides attending to the diplo-
matte duties of his office, made an ex-
animation into the progress and position
of the manufactures of the country.
Among other places he visited the tan
neries, and examined all the different
modes of curing and tanning hides.
What he specially sought is the source
of the Russian leather scent. This is
owing to the presence of the brickb bark
tar, which is used in dressing the skins
in place of tallow and grease, the latter
substances being so largely used Us
food among the lower classes. This
tar, which is carefully saved as it ex-
udes from the wood when burned, was
first used as substitute for wheel
grease in Russia, as it is to this day, and
then for the filling and dressing of skins
BY Il system of careful inquiry during
his visits to some of the great Russian
tanneries and curriers' shops, MI. Jewell
found this compound Ill great kettle
ready for use, and thus the mystery was
solved. 1t is not an expensive article
costing only some so barrel, and he
Immediately ordered ten barrels; and
sent them to various leading leather
manufacturers in this country with in
structions, and the result is that genu-
ine Russia leather goods are now made
in America, and doubtless will soon bt
sold at nearly fifty per cent below for
mer prices
