A VORACIOUS GOAT.


An old lady named Mrs. Bingham. who
resides IN the southwestern part of this city,
has peculiar penchant for goats She has a
half dozen of these highly scented quadrupeds
about her premises, and makes great ado
about them she pets and treats them as if
they could comprehend all she says Yes
terday morning while she was in her yard
feeding her goats, she saw one of them, a
special favorte, hmping. She called the
animal by its name, and it came up close to
her. Mrs. Bingham stopped down to see
what allied its leg, and as she did so, a small
leathern pocket book, containing ten shares
of Sierra Nevada stock, and $l2 70 in small
gold and silver dropped out of her dress
pocket. The leather incased treasure had
scarcely touched the ground before the goat,
true to its nature, gobbled it up, and swal-
lowed the whole affair, without masticaton.
The old lady at once lost all interest in The |
disabled leg of her pet goat, and set up
loud cry for assistance. A man in the vicin-
aid, and she in a very few words, between
sobs and incipient Mysteries, informed him
what the trouble was. The man told the old
lady that the goat must be killed in order to
save her stock. At this Mrs. Bingham began
TO cry more violently, and unconsciously per-
oetrated bad pun by saying, 81 hate to have
t die just yet, but my property must be
recovered before it can digest it" By this
ime several other neighbors had gathered in
he yard, all expecting to see the old lady
Seltering i'll her gore from the effects of an
ssassin 9 knife or pistol but when advised as
o the nature of the trouble they all set up 1
loud shout of merriment, greatly to the dis 9
ust of the sufferer. AS goat S digestive or
ans are very nearly as powerful as those of
ertaln member of the editorial staff of the Vir-
lnia Chronicle, it was deemed necessary to cut
s Jugular without further delay. Mr.. Goat d
as caught, had his legs urely tied, and in t,
n minutes thereafter he gave his last kick q
4 earth. He was cut open and in his
omach was found the pocket book, with G
'ntents intact. !,

The hard times and suffering among la
boring people in England have led to q
more careful examination into strikes and
troubles between labor and capital. During
1877 there were Isl strikes on the island Of
Great Britain. Last year there was a greater
rumber. Mathemaliciaps have demon
sIraied thai if all the people who engaged in
these strikes were to work uninterruptedly
for the next ten years, at the advanced wages
for which they struck, they would not repay
themselves for the Losses they sustained

DISSATISFIED IMPORTERS.

great deal of dissatisfaction exists among the i'm
porters concerning order recently issued by the
Collector that all goods not removed within twenty
four hours after they have been examined will be
the General Order Warehouse and held for storage.
This action of the Collector is looked upon by the
merchants hardship. it entails additional cx-
pense upon them. At the same time It is annoying
We'll In many cases an entry is made i'll the Gus
tom House OF shipment of goods consisting of
four Ave invoices. Usually of each in
voice is ordered into the Public Store .or examna-
ton. IL there should happen to be different of
duties to pay on the various invoices the cases
go different divisions At present the Third or
silk division, is completely janmed up with goods,
the examiners being engaged until late at night
passing the merchandise. 1t often happens that it
takes three four days before such invoice
reaches its turn. The probability also exists that
other divisions complete their examinations before
the Third DIVISION it Is rule not to deliver any
of those ordered for examination into the store
an entire entry until all have been passed upon.
Several casds go to the bonded warehouse under
fault OF his. except that the government has not
sufficient room to accommodate the goods coming
into port When the Appraisers Department was
removed from New Church street to its present
location Washington, West, Hubert and Laight
