Biela's comet, however, which has estab-

again meet with disappointment. 1t

+ AN EVENING IN THE OLD CITY TAv-
ERN IN BosToN.-When Maine was a
district of Massachusetts Ezekiel Whit
man was chosen to represent the district
in the Massachusetts Legislature. He
was an eccentric man and one of the
best lawyers of his time. He owned q
farm, and did much work on his own
land; and when the time came for him
to set out for Boston, his best suit of
clothes was suit of homespun. His
wife objected to his going in that garb,
but he did not care. ~ will get nice,
fashionable, suit made as soon as / reach
Boston," he said.
Reaching his destination, Whitman
found rest at Doolittle's City Tavern.
Let it be understood that he was a grad
uate of Harvard, and at this tavern he was
at home. AS he entered the parlor of
the house he found several ladies and
gentlemen. assembled, and he heard re-
mark from one of them. "Ah, here
comes a couutryman of the real home
spun genus. Here's fun p Whitman
stared at the company and then sat
down.
"Say, my friend, are you from the
country ?" remarked one of the gentle
men.
"Ya-as," answered Ezekiel, with a
ludicrous twist of the face.
The ladies Uttered.
"And what do you think of our city ?"
"It's a pooty thick-settled place any
how. It's got sweepin' sight of houses
in it."
"And good many people, too"
"Ya.as, I should guess So" .
"Many people where you come from?"
"Wal, some"
"Plenty of ladies, I suppose?"
"Ya-as, far sprinklin'."
"And l don't doubt that you are quiet
beau among them"
"Ya-as, / beaus 'em home-tew meet
in and singin' schewl."
"Perhaps the gentleman from the
country will take glass of wine?"
"Thank-ee. Don't keer if do.'
The wine was brought.
"You must drink toast"
80, git out / eat toast-never heard
O. such a thing as drinkin' it. But I can
give ye sentiment"
The ladies clapped their hands, but
what was their surprise when the stranger,
raising, spoke calmly and clearly as fol-
lows:
"Ladies and gentlemen, permit me to
wish you health and happiness with ev-
cry blessing earth can afford; and may
YOU grow better with advancing years,
bearing ever in mind that outward ap-
pearances are often deceitful. You mis-
took me, from my dress, for a country
BOBBY, while I, from the same superficial
cause, thought you were ladies and gen.
tlemen. The mistake was mutual"
He had just spoken when Captain
Strong the, governor of the State, enter
ed and inquired for Mr.. Whitman.
"Ah, here I am, governor. Glad to
see you" Then Turning to the dumb
founded company, he said.
"I wish you very good evening"

- Galveston News Bosque county,
(Tex.) letter: The grasshoppers are as
thick now as the Radicals were in Ohio
at the late election, and the wheat, which
had come up beautifully since the late
rain, is being entirely eaten up by them.
Farmers tell me that it is past recovery,
and will have to be resown to be of any
account. More has been sown and had
come up better than for years past. It
time enough yet to resow if the seed
could be had, but unfortunately it is not
in the county and, again, their coming
now almost invariably insures full crop
of them mex: summer. 1t is hard on the
farmer to have gone through the drouth
of last spring and summer, and to have
the grasshoppers to commence the seed
ing season with.
After an enthusiastic lover spends
two hours hard labor over letter to his
pirl, and then mars its beauty by spilling
a drop of ink on it, he first swears in a
very scientific manner for few moments,

lasts through the year. The crop, this
year reached 100000 bushels. Two large

There are fifty-two members of the COM
mittee, and these meet for five days in
every three weeks. No salary is paid to
any one of them, but they are allowed
their travelling and inn expenses. These,
with other items, will bring the cost of
the first edition of the Revised Bible, as
estimated by the University Press Com
pany, which is responsible for it, to about
100000, and, consequently, it has been
determined to sell the first few copies at
high price. The new Bible will re-
ceive no Authorization" either from Par
lament or Convocation. 1t has been
discovered incidentally during the sit
tings of the committee that the so-called
authorized version never was in fact au-
thorized either enthusiastically or politi-
cally. 1t made its way by its own merits,
and the Revised Bible is expected to do
the same.

Since the hanging Of Kendall and Nc

regulators are extending their organiza-

are reported to have enrolled three thou

A large party visited Morehead, Rowan

Bath County Jail. They posted the fol-
lowing notice on the Court House door !:
"Notice.-To any court that may try
Rabourn for the murder Of Hyatt: If you
fail to give him justice you will be as
guilty as he; also, any attorney that may
raise any technicality in his defense will
be sent on visit to Kendall and McMil-
Ian without fail. Any person destroying
this notice will be dealt with according
to the law of Judge Lynch.
In Elliott County the regulators are
moving, and sent the following notice to
the Judge of the Circuit Court:
ITO the court now in session: Behold
we come again, not with fire and blood
in our tracks, but we come to this court
as suppliants at the throne of mercy,
begging and pleading that they will not
continue any cases OF felony that are on
the docket, or that may come on it du-
ring this term, on mere legal technicali-
ties, but give them what the law provides
for, viz. a speedy trial. Bear this in
mind. Country, justice and God de-
mand it, and we, as band Of over two
thousand in three counties, say that we
will give it to them in three days after
this court adjourns if you don't. We
don't want to threaten this or any part OF
it, because they are perfectly safe so far
as we are concerned; but we want
thieves, robbers. house, burners, men
who slay their wives and are so handy
with pistols, to distinctly understand
that we mean business. We don't like
this. 1t is no pleasure to us, but stern
and hard duty that we can perform, it

had better be tried here, for if we have to

unto you, for death is your portion, and

Getting a Check Caslled in Paris.

To one accustomed to our quick busi-
ness movements in New York, and the
especial rapidity with which banking
operations are performed, it is quite lu-
dicrous to enter Paris bank and watch
the performances there. If you present
check for payment, instead of handing
it directly to the teller.and getting your
money instantly, or in two or three
minutes at the latest, las in New York
bank, you walk up to an officer in uni
form, of whom there are dozen walking
about the counting room, in large banks
like the Credit Lyonnais, outside the
space reserved for the clerks. He con-
ducts you to one of the places con-
structed like cells, in which the book
keepers are serving out a sentence OF
solitary confinement. You hand your
check to the prisoners assistant, who
hands it to his "boss." The latter con-
suits big ledger. If there is a sufficient
"spondulix" to the credit of the drawer,
and the signature has all its is crossed,
and its t's dotted, he returns it to the
boy, who, in turn, hands it to you, with
the request that you pay 2 sous for q
revenue stamp. This being gummed
on the back, the deputy prisoner asks
your address, then indorses it on the
back of the draft, and you write your
name across the revenue stamp with
date, &C., and then second time under
meath your address. This done, you
are presented with q bronze medal the
size of saucer with a numeral upon
it. You accept it modestly, beliey-
ing it to be sort of Legion dillon

it. You then are requested to seat
Yourself on one of the numerous long
settees ranged around the room, which
you do, and wait prayerfully till your

what he means, and sit stupidity wonder
ing, but on repetition of the cry you
consult your brass door-plate and find
you hold "No 493." So up you march
to the crier and present your medal, and
in return he hands you out little bowl
which contains your lucre. I timed the
operation. There was just five persons
ahead of me when entered, and it took
