Some four or five years ago Gen
eral Bsauregard was serenaded il
Baltimore by some young bloods
who made Mandatory speeches ii
praise Of the chieftain, at the same
time triumphautly declaring thai
they we're not conquered in the con
fiict with the North, but merely
overcome by numbers. A fter list
ening to the cheap bravado. Beau.
regard said: Gentlemen did any OF
you do any fighting during the late
warf" To this there was only a
negative response. swell, Gentle
men, | did do some fighting and was
conquered. Good night, Gentle
men," Beauregard has since that
day been treated by the South with
the same contempt that has been
lavislled upon Longstreet.
Pittsburg is one of the blacklist
Of cities, by reason OF the smoke
from its manufactures; but a plan is
being tested that promises 70 make
it clean. The proposition is to wash
the smoke, and the way of doing it
is thus described The washing is
done by passing the smoke through
the spray caused by paddle.wlleels
revolving in a tank of water hold.
gag soda ash in solution. The tank
and wheels are placed in the fue,
between the furnace and chimney,
and, the wheels being made to re.
volve in the direction of the chin
ney, the draught is increased. The
smoke after being thus treated will
not soil white handkerchief.
The Philadelphia lawyers have
lately brought case before Judge
Hanna, involving the point wheth-
Or promise to pay after death is
Or is not valid. The judge rules
sffirnatively, saying: "If a debtor
can enter into verbal or written
for the payment either of
goods or chattels during
bis lifetime, and which can be en-
orced against him before his death,
md afterwards against his estate,
t is difficult to understand why he
,annot enter into similar contract
o be performed by his legal repre-.
after his death and
which would be sustained against

TINS morning it was very slippery
and along til" SLIPPERY portion of the
s'iprcriest street proceeded certain
commission merchant, dom. business
u the corner Of Fourth and King SITS.
Over his shoulder was thrown a couple
nI geese and on his arm was hung a
basket containing some twenty dozen
Of eggs. Placements he thought We're
made to walk on and he wasn't going
to display his weakness by slipping
and sliding all over the street, so he
kept upon the pavement. Trudgi.g
along trustlngly he went on, doubtless
Illuminating over the profits he would
receive. Sudsenly-like a hash-his
feet went from under him and he sat
down, sat down with such decided EN-
phasis that he Involuntary raised his
h and to his neck to feel whether lis
backbone hadnot been showed through
his shirt collar. His change of base
was so sudden that i, naturally sur
prlsed him, and recovering 9th one
glance his eye took in the basket and
the poo! Of 'yaller" b-ueath. "Gone
TO thunder by gum" muttered he, and
picking up his basket gingerly, he re-
:urnel to his stall, leaving the greater
portion Of his stock upon the icy pave
nent.

The patlor has always been an enc

Appalling SalUbrity.

A young gentleman and his blushing
bride, who were recently married in
Philadelphia, called the next week at an
apartment-house and were shown the fiat
that was to be let by the loquacious per-
son who officiated as janitor. This es-
timable woman, who would appear to be
a good motherly soul, went on to illus
trate how very healthy the house hap
paned to be. "There was Mrs. on
the first floor; she came here bride and
went away with three children, as
pretty little things as ever I saw, mem.
And there was Mrs. -. the second, who
had little son born to her here, mem,
and fourteen months after little daugh.
ter. And, mem, Mrs. -, the third
floor, she was a bride, too, mem, and il
was twins, mem, within a year. If you
please, mem, am the mother of four OF
the darlingest"- Thanks" said the
bridegroom, from whom 1 CLEANED thi.
interesting anecdote; "after all, l think
it would be better to go little further
up town." And he led the bride, blush
ing again, into the open air and out of thu
healthy neighborhood.
