When Governor Gerry managed Mas
sachusetts, country deacon happened
to catch fine salmon, and knowing
that the governor had particular liking
for that sort of fish, he determined to
present it to him. So the salmon was
carefully packed, and the deacon, in the
absence of railroads, started in his wa
gon for Boston. On the Journey he
stopped to dine, and telling at the table
his errand in regard to the fish, prac-
teal joker present could not resist the
temptation of slipping out to the wagon
and changing the salmon for a poor
Goldfish. The unconscious deacon went
OH to the governors house, and after
announcing his gift, the two worthless
opened the box and discovered the fla
vorous Goldfish. Mortified. the poor
deacon started for home with his cod
fish, and stopping for lunch at his din
ing place, the wag secretly removed
the Goldfish and replaced the salmon.
When he reached home, the deacon
mournfully told the story TO an incred.
ulous wife, who had herself packed the
! salmon; they opened the box together
The deacon stared. "Well, YOU are
pretty good salmon when you are in
the country" said he; "but when YOU
are in Boston you are miserable cod
fish,"

The Rrour MEN AT LAsT.-At last a
class of witnesses have been found

Thursday, six men were found who
distinctly remembered their purchases

could state assuredly that the purchase
was not minute more than three years
past. Temperance people will remem-
Der these witnesses, and il is likely they
will be wanted again.

A short time since, saloon keeper
moved to Oberlin. TO carry on his ruin
GUS trade. The people at once held
public meetings, surrounded his build
ing for hours, till, uneasy from lack of
congenial surroundings, the intruder
departed. Just now, they are having
serious trouble with druggist. The
clergy unite with the people in
holding union meetings TO protest
against such an outrage. A saloon
keeper is to be honored in contrast with
one who, under cloak of respectable
ity, works the greater ruin.

A great moral question is about to be

A great moral question is about to be
settled, GLOW so many people can live
without employment" A gentleman
who declares that he has had nothing to
do for months advertises that he is
ready, for proper compensation, to
yield himself to the experiments of the
medical faculty. Poor fellow. The
chances arc that though the doctors
may be able to tell the precise effect
which ovcrdoses produce, the man him
self won't be able to say anything
after little while. Just think of dv-
ing at dollar a day! This is really n
case in which man gets his board as a
compensation for his agreeable COM
pany. All he has TO do is to 'takc
things" in order to insure welcome.
Such man is an anomaly, and ought
to have full employment in his chosen
profession. lie will certainly have no
cause for complaint, for he will proba-
bly, enjoy an unqucstioned monopoly.

an intimate friend to what, under God,
he attributed his success in life. ''To

of many bad examples of youths of my

Some people are very superstitious
in regard TO signs, and believe that
when your nose itches you'll have com
pany, or when YOU dream of a lover
you'll die an old maid. But the only
sign that will not fail is, when you see
dog tearing down the street yelling
at every jump it's a sign that there's a
tin can following him up mighty close.

The daily dispatch. [volume] (Richmond [Va.]) 1850-1884, 1877-02-14


Editors of the Dispatch: The future OF
the police and the Reorganization OF the
Board Of Commissioners is the absorbing
topic of the day. In it every citizen natu-
rally feels interested. To enable them to
support, Us they desire to do, the best and
most feasible plan, we should present to
their consideration views neither visionary
nor originating in prejudice to members Of
the force or Board. Throwing aside the
unfortunate desire for change which pre-
walls to such distressing extent in later
days, we should look at the matter from
.common-sense standpoint, and see If we are
not forced to conclude that it is better to
let we'll enough alone. I can conceive
of no board OF men more able to per-
form the duties of such commission than
the Mayor of q city, the President of the
Board OF Aldermen. and the Police jus
tice. Just here it may be we'll to call atten-
ton to the fact that on this Board are two
officers elected directly by the people, and
one elected indirectly by them through the
City Council. That, it strikes me, is quite
fair, and think already meets the ideas OF
those in favor OF the members Of this Board
being elected by the people. 49,.
Any change made will be but an indirect
charge of failure Of duty and lack Of honesty
on the part OF the now existing bOafQ. L
am opposed to indirect attacks-to this
thing Of striking man in the dark. II any
member of this Board has proved false to
the charge with which he has been entrust-
ed, let the man who can prove the fact
make his accusation openly, without fear
or favor. ...
I really believe there are some persons
who think that policemen should be I'M
maculate-iust little below the angels,
but far above their fellow-men in moral
excellence. I am satisfied if they tread q
middle ground, which I think they do as
nearly as any other police force in the
Union. r.
