Tho daughter Of the host sat next to

much curiosity, finally making the
stereotyncd remark that "sho was sur
prised to see him 10 white; she had
thought that all Americans were cop.
per-coIored." Soon after some question
arose respecting our national currency,
and my friend took from his pocket
some specimens OF our bank notes,
among which was one bearing the por-
trait OF General Washington. The note
passed from hand to hand around the
table, and finally came TO the young
lady before mentioned. "Whose por-
trait is that ?" che asked Of my friend.
" General Westinghouse" he answered.
"And who was hc?" she queried.

Lcecllcs IN u Car.

a few weeks ago the passengers in II
carriage of night express train from
Vienna to Berlin were aroused from
sleep by tho shrleks or IL lady who in
sisted that she was being stabbed with
sharp instruments in several places.
She would not submit to I'M examina-
ton, and the guard was at his wits end
what to do when stout gentleman
roared out that he, too, was being
pricked cruolly in various parts of his
thigh, Fortunately the train was near
u station, 1T which the guard gave
orders To hnvo it stopped, and the Indy
and gentleman were hnnded out, their
companions following them, with no
small curiosity. into the waiting-room,
Tho gentleman was promptly searched,
and six colossal lccchcs were discovered
to be feasling themselves upon his leg.
Tho lady had swoonod from fright and
weakness, and had to be left behind in
the care Of II local doctor. II appears
that ono Of the passengers had brought
an insuilieiently covered jar of these
blood.suckers into the carriage, and
had placed il upon the seat. They os-
capped, and did the mischief.

" Xhar's Your HOss,o

Some years since, when the state of
Missouri was considered Ear West"
there lived on the bank of the river of
the same name as the state, substan-
tial farmer, who, by years of toll, had
accumulated tolerably pretty pile of
casting, owing, as he said, principally to
the fact that he didn't raise much taters
and unyuns, but right smart of corn.
This farmer, hearing that good land
was much cheaper further south, con-
cluded to move there. Accordingly he
provided his eldest son with good
horse, and q sutiiciency of the needful
to defray his travelling contingent ex-
penses, and instructed him to purchase
POO acres of good land, at the lowest
possible price, and return Immediately.
The next day Jeems started for Arkan-
sas, and after an absence of some six
weeks, returned home.
