THE LANGUAGE OF THE HAT.-Wearing
the hat squarely on the head love you
madly.
Pulling it down over the ears-Will you
please treat me to ice cream?
Tipping 1t over the left ear-Vanilla,
please.
Tipping it over the right carly little
brother has the measles.
Wearing it on the back of the head-Ta-
ia. Awfslly ta-ta.
Taking it off and brushing it the wrong
way-My heart is broken.
Holding it out in the right hand-Lend
me a car ticket. H
Throwing it at a policeman-I love an
other.
Using it as a fan-Come and play copen-
hagen with my aunt. .....
Carrying brick in it-Your cruelty is
killing me.
Kicking it across the street, am en-
gagged.
Putting it on the ground and sitting on
it-Farewell forever Yankee Blade

HORACE.

The following-to say the least-singu-
lar item is from Wheelertown cor res
pondent:
II have read so many snake stories in
the papers this summer that 1 think it
about time for me to tell one. A farmer,
named Snyder, of Columbia county, n.
Y, had meadow which was we'll stocked
with rattlesnakes. 1t had not been
moved for the last few years, and peo-
pie were afraid of the reptiles. 1t is
said that Snyder offered nice sum of
money and plenty of whiskey to have
the meadow moved, and that Mr.. Jones
accepted the offer. He dressed himself
in sheepskin suit with the wool out.
The teeth of rattlesnake are shaped
like fish hooks, and when once they be-
came imbedded in the wool it was no
easy matter to detach them. During the
progress of the moving our hero never
stopped unless to take his bitters or
whet his scythe. AS he wended his way
homeward it was sight to behold-the
spectacle of one hundred and seventy
three rattlesnakes clinging to the fleece.
In weight they averaged one pound each.
Who can tell a better story?"

PROFESSOR.

THE LARGEST TREE IN THE WORLD. =
There is now in San Francisco one of ma
ture's wonders in the shape of one of the
largesttrees in the world. This gigantic
speciman of natures handiwork was dis
covered by Professor Chowles, a geologist
in 1874. 1t grew on Tule River. Tularo
County, California, about seyenty-five
miles from Visalia. At some far distant
period its top had been broken off by un-
known forces yet when discovered, it had
an elevation Of two hundred and forty
feet. The body of the tree where broken
was twelve feet in diameter and had two
vast limbs, measuring respectively nine
and ten feet in diameter-which would
seem to indicate that its original altitude
had been much greater than two hundred
and forty feet. The trunk of this collos-
sal product of vegetation reached the
enormus measurement of one hundred
and eleven feet. The huge tree is called
"Old Moses" from the faqh of its having
grown near mountain of that name, and
Is said to be four thousand eight hundred
and forty years old. There is supposed to
be nine hundred cords of wood in the
whole tree.

A w eird Scene.

1t is beautiful green, velvety yard,
that OF our neighbor just across the way,
with tasteful iron fence in front and a
high board fence on one side, finely set
out with fruit and ornamental trees,
which cast fine, deep shadows on the
rich green swarG, which is charmingiy
retouched with rare flowers. 1t has
fine back aground of choice shrubbery and
undulating hills over which and through
the openings of the foliage are seen beau
tiful touches of blue sky. Among the
trees is an apple tree whose fruit is
tempting TO those who are denied the
yard. Forbidden fruit has had special
charm ever since the days of mother
Eve. On the night of the incident L am
about to relate, Sunday night, the sun
was just setting and the background of
our picture was all aglow with crimson
and gold and a larming, soft, golden
tone was impaired to the picture. 1t
only needed central figure to complete
the picture. II soon appeared in the per-
son OF "a charming little Eve who had
came over the board fence, not quite in
| tig-leaf costume, but something quite as
! light and airy. She was not cncumbered
with superliuous clething. In short the
only thing that prevented her from ap-
pearng in n state of nudity was a slight
altered waist of what had been cotton
dress, just caught up on her tiny shOul-
ders, with a mere apology OF a skirt in
! front, scarcely reaching to her alabaster
knees. Her faxcn hair, charminSly
banged all over her lead, vas beautifully
| tinged with gold and her little chiseled
form seemed like golden angel as she
| fitted like spirit towards the coveted
. fruit, She gathered up her tattered skirt
in front, which gave the back of the gar
ment the appearance of anything but a
pull-back, and hurliedly snaching up the
apples that lay on the ground, put them
in her skirt and ran back to the fence
Finding il impossible to get lack ovel
the fence with her booty she rushed here
and there clutching her garment and
holding on to her apples, and finding nc
other way of escape ran out at the front
gate to the side walk and ran like an an
telope down street; her little polished
limbs flashing like firs.fiies in the twi
light. She turned in at the end of the
high board fence and attempted to crowe
herself through between it and the build
ing next, but for few minutes stucl
fast. Here little Adam, a confederate
on the other side of the fence, who, like
the first Adam, was willing to let his Eve
take the initiative in mischief, came tt
the rescue and took her apples, and sh,
clambered up and pushed through, annie
the applause of an appreciative audience
on the opposite side of the street.

Iesounded with the cry, and buyer and

While the traffic was going on a little cpl
sode occurred in one of our thorough

A little fellow, barefooted, ragged and
bright, who was afflicted with the loss of
his palate, was screaming at the top of
his voice "Hunkleberries, sit thents a

another boy better dressed aud possess

Summer is past and now. with bounteous cheer.
sobered eptember speeds the waning year
With bcnedietions and farewells of peace
While his brown are filled with earths in
crease.
In yonder fields are ranged the shining gheavcs;
From ch smut groves the ripe nut rattles down.
And rusted foliage shows in scarlet brown:
And where the whirring partridge flies
The sportsman seeks his feathc tered prize:
The harvest-moon resumes her nightly reign
And casts her tender radiance DER the plain
And swallows southwark steer their flights once
more,
As on fleet wings to warmer climes they soar;
Bright sunlight gilds the distant hills.
And with .oft sheen the vista fills,
While rom the orchards swaying top.
The red-cheeked apples laugh and drop;
Along the lanes of golden grain
The farmer drives his rafting vain
And far along the yellow giades
Is heard the ring of sickle-biades
Oh. sweet and sweet is the song of the wheat!
As it floats on the cool breeze all day long,
In a musical ripple of silver song!
The groves are filled with fallen leaves
The sawllows leave their plastered caves;
And hush oh, bark /
In the dry leaves the locust stir
The evening with his tireless whirr-
And vocalizing all the dark
How sweet to roam at close of day,
Along some wild, sequestered way,
Some pasture path, upland walk.
And with some cheerful friend to talk,
Or watch the faint auroras play
On the worlds margin. far away;
Or muse beside some rocky stream,
Absorbed in some poetic dream;
Or watch the large moons lucent beam
Touch the glad waves with dancing glcam!
Or roam some unfrequented strand,
Writing sunnets the sand,
Lost i'll q sad love-reverie
BY the margin OF the sea
Though other months more glad TO some may seen
And longer dlys more charms to them UNFOLD
Subdued September fills my fsncy's dream
With mists AMI azurrs, and AN air of gold

CUR WAsHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec, 10th, 1879.
The House yesterday agreed to adjourn
on the 10th for the holidays. The Sen
ate is yet to act OH the resolution, which
is of course concurrent, and many be-
lieve an earlier day will be fixed. The
adjournment will be the 9th of January.
One or two of the minor regular ap-
preparation bills may be ready by the
18th. The Military Academy (West
Point) bill is one of them.
The fortification bill is another. These
bills provide for very small amounts,
aud very little from year to year. But
the adjournment, whether Oh the 10th or
10Th, will precede actio. on the bills in
the House. The more important appro-
iations, such as those fos the army and
navy, the Post Office Department, the
Department of Justice, &C., cannot pos.
sibly be reached before the holidays.
Senator Call, of Florida, desires cor
rection of Il report, lately made, that he
| had said he thought the radicals would
| have chance of carrying the State. He
says the State is solidly Democratic.
aud that nearly every Intelligent voter
added to the LISTS whether by immigra-
ton or otherwise, increases the Demo
cratic vote.
Of the many constitutional amend
ments proposed lately i'll Congress-, one
is of particular Importance. 1t prohibits
general legislation on regular appr"pria
ton bills. Another makes the Presi
dents term six years, and .orblds Il re
election at tie end of the term. Tue
common sense of the country is asains
unnecessary or frequent changes of tn
organic law, and certainly no good rea
son can be given for submitting to TIL

THE CANNON SPIKED.

Several trips past the new
Natchez passed the John w.
Cannon, under way, which very
naturally created a sensation in
river circles. The Cannon is
a rapid craft and glides DER the
bosom of the Mighty Missis-
sippi in a majestic manner, but
it seems the Big Injun is just a
little too much for her. Capt.
Leathers is deservedly proud
of his boat since her victory.
