The Wilmington On. C.) Star vouches
for the following rather transparent
story: "Mr. Norment, well-known
politician of Robson county, was en-
gagged in fishing in Lumber river, using a
hook and line, when by some cans he
lost overheard a valuable gold ring
which he had worn upon one Of his fin
gers. The water was deep and the bot
tom of the river soft and muddy, so of
course no attempt was made to recover
the lost trinket Nine weeks alter
wards he was again fishing in the same
locality. when he caught large trout,
which he took home with him, and
upon opening the fish preparatory to
cooking il, he was astonished to find ia
its stomach the identical ring which he
had lost overheard more than two
months previously"

Half of house was cut of in Napa,
California, and moved away. The family
that continued to reside in the remains
der temporarily stretched muslin across
the open sp g ce. Thot evening crowd
gathered to see the shadow pantomime
that the inmates unc0nsciously made
for public amusement. The supper
table was close to the curtain, so that
the movements of the eaters were seen
in grotesque silhouette on the cloth.
Then the husband kissed his wife, and
that night made the spectators laugh so
loud that the show was instantly
broken up.

LONDON, January 9.--The stagna-

the Times of this morning, in its
financial article, exceeds anything ex-
perienced for a long time The rise in

posal of large sums of money which
can he used In the way of loans. There
seems no longer any justification for
the bank of England maintaining

Dining and Winning Them.
London, Sunday July 28.-The Carl
ton club gave grand banquet last
night to the British Plenipotentiaries
to the congress, Lords Beaconsfield and
Salisbury. The Duke of Bucclench and
Queensbury presided. Five hundred
peers and commoners were present.
Lord Beaconsfield replying to toast
awarded Lord Salisbury the greater
share of the merit in the labors at Ber-
lin. He defended his conduct toward
Greece, saying he had counseled
Greece to abstention, and the facts
proved that Greece obtained more than
the revolted principalities which had
layished blood and treasure. He passed
great eulogium on the present Sultan
who. throughout, was desirous of act
ing in conciliatory manner TO Greece.
Lord Beaconsfeld maintained that by
convention with Turkey we diminished,
not increased our responsibilities. He
brought back from Berlin conviction
that neither the Crimean nor last war
would ever have occurred if England
had spoken out firmly. In repelling
the assertion of Mr.. Gladstone that the
Turkish convention was an insane con-
vention Lord Beaconsfeld spoke of
Gladstone as sophistical rhetorician,
inebriated with an exuberance of his
own verbosity and egotistical emana-
tion. Lord Salisbury and Sir Stafford
NorthcoJe also spoke.

PRELUDE.
AT Fort Fred. Steele not long ago,
The Devil came with pomp and show
And his old eyes were all aglow
As be captured the Fort without blow.
And rirst the plain he laid quite risky
And filled the brief with the Majors whisl ";
And sorry am to tell his sadIot
For the boys call 1t the Majors Rot
The Devil first assaulted one Scotty and
Young.
Else of Brigham's virtues never had sung,
To lead deserters oward the morning star
Where all is peace and no sign of war.
The road thus opened one Parker and speese
Concluded ofollow and be at their ease,
But like Paul Revere, they warning gave
To Corporals, Sergants and privates brave.
Then and there was hurrying to and fro
As 1t was, years ago. at grim Waterloo.
One Sergeant went east and one went west
While the privates hung over the Cuckoo's
N nest. HftH Z Z
And first from Rawiins came the report
While the geese broke water far to port.
The blue coats stated they couldn't fail,
But TO make the thing certain they cap

After searching the place from pit to dome
And finding no blue coats they teiegraphed
home:

Oh. give us our liberty, Captain Bis"

oppressed.

If you see blue coat attached to chain,
Just say to yourself that you will refrain
From life of woe that leads to Jim Jams,
And obey all orders as meek as eve lambs.

NOTWITHSTANDING the calm acaui-
escence to the results of the Berlin
Congress of Gambetta, and the tacit en-
dorsement by other French statesmen,
the average Frenchman is moved to
complain of the big "divy" which Eng
land received while France profited not.
The feeling is not by any means allayed
by the suspicion that Bismarck had an
eye on matters so that France shouldn't
get more than half the continent.

REPORTS are in circulation that
England is negotiating for more real
estate in Asia, now belonging to Turkey.
Should the latter power see fit to give
slice of Syria to England it will come
within the agreement between the two
governments. England guaranteed
Turkish territory against all comers.
But there is nothing to prevent her
from getting as much for herself as her
greed can stand.

ONE subscription of million and a
quarter to the four per cent. loan was
made by the Nevada bank, of Califor-
mia. 1t is payable in standard dollars.
1t will be remembered that the bank
sold large amount of fine silver to
the government the other day, getting
standard dollars for it. Now bonds
are purchased by the bank. The direct
thing is that the bank has got bonds
for its bullion, as only these two arti-
cles will travel to consumaate the
arrangement.

The Austrian subjects in Servia be-
