A Singular Cat Story.

A queer cat story comes from Preston.
A farmer had been troubled with rats
for some time, and finally purchased a cat
that was recommended as a good mouser.
The cat sustained its reputation, and the
rats were soon an unknown quantity in
the house, and the farmer congratulated
himself greatly. His dreams of freedom
from rats were dispelled one day, howev-
er by the cries of the servant girl, who
stated that on going down cellar where
the cat was INDUCING in its monday re-
past, she saw large rat eating at the
same dish with the cat, and solemnly
averred that when she went toward them
the rat chased her, and made her run up
stairs. The cat, she said, seemed to en-
joy the company of his ratship, and ap-
peared as if charmed by the rat, the
same as a snake charms bird. The
girl, who was superstitious, declared the
rat was possessed of devil. The farm
er would not credit the story until he
saw the same thing day or two after
ward. He allowed the strange friend
ship to exist for several days, the rat
coming regularly to partake of meals
with the cat. Finally the farmer decid-
ed to put an end to the singular friend
ship which existed, and taking a gun
went tor the rat, but his attempts to
shoot proved futile, he having missed
the rat. No sooner had he fired at, and
missed it, than the cat jumped upon the
rat and killed it. Now the farmer wants
to know why the cat didn't kill the rat
before.-Ne1U Hdven ReQister.

What He Was Fishing For.

The other day the harbor master came
across a stranger on the wharf, at the
foot of Randolph street, fishing with q
cotton string to which was attached a
hook made of stove pipe wire and baited
with an apple core.
"Do you expect to catch any fish with
such tackle as that?" inquired the
official.
"No SIR" was the prompt reply.
care you fishing for bites?"
Ono, SIR"
"Fishing for fun?"
"No, sir"
The nettled harbor master was about
to tell the calm minded stranger to fish
away and be hanged to him, when he
carefully lifted his hook out of water,
spit on the apple core and said:
"Pve been in this city two days and
over, sleeping in boxes and living on air,
and | was just experimenting to see if
there was a burned reptile in this neigh
borhood as hungry as ! am"
The officer lent him a chew of tobacco
and permitted him to continue his ex-
pertinent in peace.-Detroit Free Press.
"GLEN MITCHELL" famous resort
at Saratoga, which cost its former pro-
prietor about $4,000, was sold at auc-
ton the other day for So, 400, subject to
a 5000 mortgage.

HAIR OF THE PRESIDENTS.
An Interesting Collection In the Pat.
emit Office at washington.

An interesting collection In the Pat
emit Office at washington.
In the patent Office at Washington
there are many objects of interest con-
nected with the government and those
who administered its affairs in times
gone by. While examining some of
objects of curiosity nothing struck us so
forcibly as the samples of small locks of
hair, taken from the heads of different
chief magistrates, from Washington
down to President Pierce, secured in q
frame covered with glass. Here is, in
fact, part and parcel of what once cor
stited the living bodies of those Illus
trious individuals whose names are as
familiar as household words, but who
now live only in history and the remem-
brance of the past.
The hair of Washington is nearly a
pure white, fine and smooth in its APP
pearance.
That of John Adams is nearly the
same in color, though perhaps a little
cOarser.
The hair of Jefferson is of different
character, being a mixture of white and
auburn, or a sandy brown, and rather
coarse. In his youth Mr.. Jeferson's
hair was remarkable for its bright color.
The hair of Madison is coarse and q
mixed white and dark.
The hair of Monroe is handsome
dark auburn, smooth and free from any
mixture. He is the only president, ex-
cepting Pierce, whose hair has undergone
no change in color.
The hair of John Quincy Adams is
somewhat peculiar, being coarse and q
yellowish-gray in color.
The hair of Gen. Jackson is almost a
perfect white, but coarse in its character,
as might be supposed by those who have
examined the portraits Of the old hero.
The hair of Van Buren, is white and
smooth in appearance
The hair of Gen. Harrison is fine
white, with slight admixture of black.
The hair of John Tyler is mixture of
white and brown.
The hair of James K. Polk is almost q
pure white.
The hair of Gen. Taylor is white, with
slight admixture of brown.
The hair of Willard Fillmore is, on the
other hand, brown, with slight admix-
ture of white.
The hair of Franklin Pierce is dark
brown, of which he has plentiful crop.
1t is somewhat remarkable, however,
that since Pierce's time no one has
thought of preserving the hair of his
successors. There are vacancies in the
case; but there is no hair either OF
Buchanan, Lincoln, johnson, or Grant,
for the inspection of futurity.

He stopped talking, and we silently
lay on the floor; thinking of his story,
he, probably, regretting his wasted
years, could not offer consolation. The
wreck was SO complete that felt it to
be past help, and so said nothing.-Nea0

SIX steamers have been chartered in
England to make trading voyages to the
mouth of the ODE river, where they will

The vast wheat-producing regions of
Northern Asia are thus brought into
competition with other sources of SUD
ply for European consumption.

The young man from the city now
goes hunting in the woods and loses his
way. In this dilemma he determines to
trust to the instincts of his dog, and fol-
lows the sagacious animal at mad pace
through underground and across gulches,
and finally pulls up at woodchuck's
hole in the heart of the forest, as much
Ost as ever.

The crockery dealers of New York
have declared "war to the knife" on the
tea dealers, the latter of whom give
crockery, etc., away to purchasers of tea.
The crockery dealers have notified them
to stop this practice or suffer the penalty
in having tea and coffee given as gratui-
ties to purchasers of crockery and glass
ware. One large tea dealer has promised
the crockery dealers his earnest co-opera-
ton in breaking up the practice, as he
claims that there is but little, if any
profit, in it.

The yellow fever is a curious disease,
says the Memphis AuoIcache, and the
more it is studied the less we seem to
know about it. One of the greatest
curiosities in connection with this
plague of mankind is the case of the
island of Jamaica, where the disease
prevailed for years, but where during
the last half century it has not been
known. Yellow fever is round it on
every side, in Cuba and in San Domingo,
but in Jamaica it is unknown. Jamaica
has no state board nor national board,
and consequently does not quarantine.

Twas jolly cid pedagogue, long ago,
Iali and slender, and salIow and dry;
His form was bent and his gait was slow,
bis long, thin hair was white as snow,
But wonderful twinkle shone in his eve;
And he sang every night as he went to bed,
Let us be happy down here below;
The living should live, though the dead be dead,

Soon after the Rcumenical council had
pronounced by reclamation the dogma
of papal infallibilty, there was falling
of in the contributions Familiarity known
as "St. Peters Pence" AS years went
on, until the death of Pic Mono, a
steady diminution continued, and at last
they dwindled down to a comparatively
insignificant sum. Since the accession
OF Cardinal Pecci the pence have been
coming into the vatican with the pro-
fusion of former years. For the
semester of the present year termi-
uating on June 30th, the amount yielded
exceeded by $4,000 the proceeds for
the corresponding semester of 1878. The
present pope has cut down the expenses
of his household from $4,000 to $500.
and has effected important economies in
other directions. His thrift has made an
excellent impression upon the Catholic
world.

A MAGNIFICENT plan has been brought
forward for the construction of under
ground railways in Paris at cost calcu-
lated at not far from $40, 100000. Those
who are acquainted with the topography
of that city will understand the vastness
of the scheme thus contemplated, from
the statement that the central terminus
would be in the garden of the Palais
Royal, st depth of about twenty-four
feet, and from that point three main
lines would branch of-one bv the
Bourse, Opera, st. LAHORE station and
Batignolles; another by the central mar
kets to the eastern and northern rail-
ways, with branches at the Boulevard
Sebastopol to the Lyons, Vincennes and
Orleans termini; the third to the Place
Saint Germain-des-Pres, Montparnasse
and Sceaux railway stations. Besides
these principal lines, there would be
subsidiary ones in various directions,
and it is believed that the undertaking
presents no obstacles in an engineering
point of view, that may not be over
come.

A WRITER in an English naval maya
zine states that the best petroleum
equipment for naval warfare, at present
devised, consists of a steam cylinder,
fifteen feet long by twelve inches in
diameter, to which is attached a pipe
terminating in nozzle at the bow of a
torpedo boat. From this cylinder the
Greek fire is elected with great force
under pressure of about 500 pounds to
the square inch. 1t has been intimated,
on pretty high authority, that the Rus
sian government, recognizing the value
of petroleum as most powerful agent of
destruction in this direction, would
probably have resorted to it in the late
contest, if the experiments proving its
effectiveness has been concluded in time.

AN earnest effort is being made by the
state department, both through the reg
ular diplomatic channels and by means
OF special government agents, to secure
the cooperation of foreign powers in q
reconsideration of the bi-metallic stan
dard question. The department believes
that Germany is disposed to regard
favorably the proposals Of this govern
ment for further joint consideration of
the subject, and it is thought that the
efforts of Mr.. Evarts will result in the
bi-metallic congress in which all the
leading states of Europe will participate.

ALL accounts agree that the cotton
crop in the south this year will CORE
spond with the enormous crop of wheat
Just harvested in the northern and west
ern states. This will make business
boom all along the line, and the whole
country will feel the impetus. The re-
port of the executive committee of the
National Cotton Exchange, just published,
says that during the last five years
cotton culture in the United States has
outstripped the most sanguine expecta-
tions; that the problem of free labor has
been virtually solved; and that the
south must be regarded as the future
reliance of the cotton manufacturers of
both America ana Europe"
