The cats in the well. Lord Byron.
Thursday morning of last week,
at about 9 o'clock, pensive cat be
longing to Mr.. G. S. Townsend,
while musing and doing on the
curblng of a deep well in the yard,
lost her balance and fell in, strik
ing the water forty-one feet below
with a splash that speedily dispell-
ed any immaterial reflections she
may have been indulging in. By
some means or other the unfortu-
nate feline managed to keep afioat
until IL o'clock the next day, when,
with great difficulty, she was haule d
up in the well-bueket and lande d
wet and dripping on terra frma.
In the meantime, Mr.. Townsend and
his family took their aqueous bev-
erage not with a straw but with a cat
in it; which gave rise to some seri-
Gus reflections and several two edg-
ed. remarks when Pussy's sudden
appearance in the well-bucket made
them aware of that fact. 1t is some
" udG 4 hdDlC 1ndO ohC
to keep adoat for twenty-seven
hours, the exact time she was in
the well; but it is by no means
strange that the water had q queer
taste during her stay or that Mr..
Townsend's rosy gills turn pale even
at this late day when his glance
roves in the direction of the wind
lass. What happened to Pussy
during the long and damp hours of
her confinement is not positively
known, but it is thought she was
sick at the stomach most of the
time. A small boy in the neigh
borhood saw her tumble in but
failed to mention the catastrophe
until she was rescued the next day.
When reproached for his silence he
said by way of excuse that she
looked as if good soaking for two
or three days in clean water would
improve her sanitary condition, and
he didn't feel like mentioning the
matter until she had received q
good bath.

come good in the shape of dinings,
at which were recounted the scenes
of other days, enlivened occasional

occasions, and to enhance the pleas

of several social parties, at which
were gathered the elite of the neigh

and amiable disposition render her
a favorite in the social circle here

that we see sometimes justifies the
remark that some one will have a
severe attack of the Texas fever.
