John Rau is married man. 1t is difficult to COM
prehend that he is longer of the boys. Yet it
is true. When he comes to town, he walks up the
street with that peculiar expression of sefcompa-
cency known only to a married man; with that dig
nified afiability which says:
II monarch Of all I survey

That sages have seen In thy face
Better dwell In tho midst Of alarms,
Then reign in q bachelors place."

Our jeweller, 8. n. Sarber, has the most complete
calendar clock ever brought to this place, and We
doubt If it has an equal in the County Besides the
minute and hour hands, it shows the day Of the week,
the day of the month"; the time Of the rising and
ting of the sun, and the age and phases Of the
1t also has figure which appears only once in four
years, marking leap-year This Ia all to be seen on
the dial face but il could just look in at the back
window Of that clock, presume We should see an
other face that would tell every man his age, the
amount of his bill at the drygoois store, his sweet
hearts thoughts her fathers wealth, the number of
times Lac kisses her in a month, and the number of
water1nelons eaten during the season. REISDEEK.
