NEVER HAD SEEN A PgASuT.-They were
standing on the stone steps leading up to
the Capitol at 2:30 r. NJ. yesterday, and
were evidently from the most rural local
ity OF the rural districts, as indicated by
their persons, dress and manners, and the
every day hustle Of our Wheeling streets
appeared TO them n wonderful and
strangely unusual sight. The peculiar ac-
tons OF the pair proclaimed them new
ly-wedded couple, and probably unin-
spircd by the romance OF honey moon
at Niagara, had concluded to enjoy tho cX-
periences Of a wedding tour TO the city Of
smoke, and dirt, and iron mills and glass
manufactures. Presently their fond and
mutual mcditations were Interrupted by
the gentle voice OF "pcanut Scott" who
wanted to sell them some OF his stock in
trade, and emphasized his interrogation
by displaying a basket filled with the
tempting product.
"What dye call them?" inquired the
groom.
The question almost staggered Scott, who
had firmly believed that every man, wo-
man and child in the universe had in
dulged in peanuts, and consequently knew
all about them. But he repeated the name
BY which his stock is commonly known,
and limited that their cheapness was an
object to the. purchaser. A quart
was purchased, and Scott left with
lighter basket and heavier pocket,
while the unsophisticated rustics proceed
ed at once to test the delicacy which had
boon an unknown thing to them before.
They were comparatively quiet for a few
minutes, when finally the groom spit the
peanut out OF his mouth, the shell OF
which had not yet been cracked, and in a
tone of incilable disgust, exclaimed,
"'rhcrc, Mandy, know'd we'd been sold.
rvo been suckin' that there darn'd thing
for five minutes, and there's not bit OF
