The Bon Homme Citizen of the 23d inst,
gives the particulars Of the performances
in Bon Homme county Of . tree peddler
named D. Berkshire from Troy, Ohio,
which have eliminated in an unfortunate
scandal, involving the family Of one of the
Oldest and best known citizens of the county.
The substance of the Citizens article, ex-
cepting the names of the family involved,
which We suppress, is that the apple tree
peddler has been stopping at . hotel in the
northeastern portion Of the county for some
time past. Last Saturday the l.ndlady and
her sister went to Tabor to hire girl, and
while there they met the tree peddler, who
treated them to something to drink, and as
q result of imbibing o freely, both ladies
became intoxicated. 1t is evident that the
lecherous tree peddler had an ohjecti in view
as the sequel will show. Our informant
says that the husband, after waiting for the
return of his wife and sister.in.law until he
had given up hopes of their safe return.
went in search Of them, and did not return
until near midnight; in the meanwhile the
wife, sister-in-law, and the tree peddler had
returned. The husband went up to his bed.
chamber and there he found his wife, sister.
in.law. and the lecherous tree peddler all
in one bed. He became enraged and got
two buckets Of water which he threw upon
the trio. This did not have the desired ef.
feet. He then went for a gun to shoot the
peddler, but in his absence, the peddler
Jumped out Of the second-story window and
in this way saved his body being perforated,
The peddler made good his escape and has
not been heard from since. The Citizen
concludes
The injured husband has ordered his wifi
and sister-in Law to leave his house At once
We are sorry TO hear of one Of Bon Homm,
county's esteemed citizens in such sor,
trouble, and the wroneed husband has tn
sympathy of the entire community. w

with deep regret for its necessity.

THE BROWN, BLUE AND GRAY.
b. II. G. PARSONS.

The watchers were weary. ana train time WAS
nigh,
There was protest and pleading, and fearful
goodbye,
We laid the three gently upon the white bed,
And tenderly piiiowed each sorrOwful head.
The lips were all silent aud soft were the sighs:
The lashes were hiding the beautiful eyes:
on the right lay the dark waves, that ripplcd
with god.
On the left flowed the silver that never was told,
And the wing 81 the raven between.
The brown eyes said, closng-'I hope you'll be
late
The blue eyes yet trembled-"How long can
you waltz
The gray, dark with pleading, We're closing in
prayer
The hush of His angel was stilling the air.
The brown hands lay crossed and pressed in
their place;
The white hands lay lost in the fold Of the lace;
In velvet and dimples, the hand that was stirred;
The breath OF the sleepers was all that heard,
And the Shrek of the incoming train.
twice kissed the proud lips,-the ruby lips
twice;
The lips that were poutng I turned 10 them
thrice
Then hurried forth blind in the ptiless rain
And into the night on the outgoing train
But think while bent over tresses ard bands
All my heart-strings We're caught by the notion
less hands;
For when, .er / wait and wherever roam
They are driving me on, they are drawing me
home,
While dream of the brown, blue ana gray.

AMONG the curious anecdotes of boards,
the Oldest is that told of the eminent
John Mayo, painter, at the court of
Charles v, whose beard was so losg that
he could stand upon it this cataract of
hair he kept tied up with ribbons to his
button holes, sometimes unfastening it
at the Emperor's wish, opening the doors
and windows that it might blow into the
faces of angry courtiers. Another famous
beard was that of a Bavarian merchant
who kept it inclosed in velvet bag to
prevent it from dragging IN the ground.
An old writer. of more gravity, we fear,
than veracity, asserts that the inhabitants
of Harndenburg had formerly the singular
custom of electing the Burgomaster who
had the longest beard and the biggest
foot.
