THE BARoN's RUsE.-Among the
bravest and most energetic Of the Slesian
noblemen who gave trouble to Frederick
the Great of Prussia was Baron Lieben.
Once upon time crowd of riotous
peasants came to the Barons castle of
Falconberg, making the most outrageous
demands, threatening to burn, kill and
lay waste if their demands were not com
| piled with. The nobeman retired 10 his
armorial chamber. and directed that the
deputation be admitted. The aggressive
| peasants to the number of fifty or more,
well heated with liquor, entered the room,
and when they were all in the Baron shut
the heavy oaken door and locked it and
threw the key out through the open win
dow then he sat down upon his sofa ;
with powder-barre at his elbow, and
taking from his mouth n wel-lighted eli
gar which he had been smoking, he ex-
claimed, in tones Of dire and dreadful
wrath
Mscreants, if you don't Immediate
ly go down upon your knees and ask my
pardon. and then go out at yonder win
dow, | will apply my cigar to this barrel
ofpowder, and we will all 60 to destruc-
ton together !"
The effect was magical. The peasants
knew the old warrior too well to think of
doubling the truth Of his diabolcal threat.
Down they went upon their knees, sober
ed enough to ask his pardon, and then
they went cut at the window, after the
key, much preferring the risk of injury
from the lean to remaining in the neigh
5orhoo o. that dreadful magaz ne with the
lighted cigar Of the Baron Lieben in such
terrible Juxtaposition.

AN Eastern paper, in answering ques-
ton on etiquette, says: "When a gentle
man and lady are walking upon the street,
the lady should walk inside Of the gentle.
man" This may be etiquette, but we
should think it would be somewhat un
comfortable for the gentleman as well as
very inconvenient for tho lady Vallejo

A few days ago we found the following. in the
streets of our village. II was evidently written
by some enthusiast who thought that he also was
endowed with prophetic vision. The document
bears date of Aprii, 1875: land 1t came to pass,
In the second year Of the reign of King
Rutherford. the inconsistent. that there dwelt IN
the city OF Frogs. which lieth on the banks OF
tue mighty steam. Sivad. q prophet called
Elijah, = wise man and very great. And It came
to pass that in the month Koran. being the
third month Of the year. that Elijah prophesied
and said: ''They. the heather and barbarisns.
that dwell in the city OF the Praries. have given
of their revenues, tithes to the task-Lnasters Of the
East that they may bring among them the demon
of iestruction-even the iron Juggernaut of the
East. For this cause shall they be cut Oh. aud
their name shall NO longer be known in the landi
but we. the elect, shall prosper.' On the con-
trary 1t hath come to pass that the city Of the
Prairirs hath grown and increased unit! her
boundaries on the east run through the country
of the salt men and encompass the city OF the
springs. and on the south near into the country
of the Hoop-poleites. including the city of
Frogs. which hath. by city ordinance. been
changed into . goose-pondi and on the west and
north est until the city OF the Mounds and the
ancient village Of Eotgnixsl are under her do
minion; and on the north to the great river.
Ydtum Glib. taking under he. " sy the veners-
bic hamlet OF Rsvod. And now 1t IL that her
bounds are exceedingly great and within her
walls trades, arts and sciences Of all kinds
flourish, and there is no city in all the broad
land TO be likened unto her. That the doom of
the prophet OF evil to the city OF the Prairies may
be clearly Set forth IS An example, the future
chronicler further saith: And after Elijah had
prophesi.d 40 hath been above written, he lived
five and twenty years. and being sore at heart
AT the prosperity Of the city Of the frairies. and
troubled In mind he slept with his fathers; and
since then there hath not arisen, among the
Aullviile!tes, another prophet. IL.
