MONTENEGRO WoMEN.-Deprived of
all moral or social pleasures enjoyed by
her sex elsewhere, it might be fancied
that the women of the Black Mountain
would find IN her home reward for the
hardships she endures, and for her un-
remitting devotion to the men of her
family. Nothing of the kind. Within
the compass of the domestic walls the
men are even more brutal than despotic.
However careful the wife, the husband
finds pretext for scolding and
grumbling. The wife who demonstrates
is soon convinced that silence is the best
policy. No Montengrin woman dares
concern herself in her husbands affairs.
Whether he goes out or comes in, she is
not permitted to make any inquiry nor
show IN any way that she worries over
his prolonged or unusual absences.
When he is absent, his wife, though
threatened with death, will never reveal
his whereabouts. No husband writes to
his wife, no matter how long he is away
from home. In the vicinity of Mustar 1
met woman whose husband had been
two years in Constantinople. Through a
fnend's indiscretion she learned of his
whereabouts sixteen months after the
separation. At first thought I had
met with very rare exception. but
soon discovered that it was the general
rule A Montengrin laughed at me
when I expressed indignant surprise.
ssWrite to w0man-to ones own wlfe!'
said he in scorn. Are we doves or
men?"

An Emperor Who Would Have Dunn
plings.

Ferdinand I. was, from all accounts, AN
amiable weak-minded man, and took no
interest whatever in the government,
which was managed by the chief minis
ter, the Prince Metternich, the real
monarch. An amusing anecdote, was
current of the Emperor, which his SUBJ
jects took great delight in repeating.
It appears that His Majesty was hunting
that summer in the Syrian mountains,
and was overtaken by violent thunder
storm. He took refuge in farm house,
whose occupants were just then at din
ner. The Emperor's eye was caught by
some smoking dumplings made of coarse
flour, and he said he would like to
taste them. The farmers wife was over
ioyed, and helped him plentifully. His
chamberlains were astonished to see
their master eat with more relish than
he had evidently done before. When he
got back to Vienna he ordered the same
kind Of dumplings served up daily, to
the horror of the royal cooks. The
courtiers were scandalized at such q
homely dish figuring on the menu, and
even the physicians demonstrated against
such coarse food. The Emperor, who
had always been the most plant of men,
now showed that he had will of his
OHu, auu peTSlSteu LII gratifying LIS oWA
fancy. Finally, after long consulta-
tion, the physicians decided that it waa
dangerous to his health to be living on
dumplings, and insisted on his giving
them up. To their astonishment the
docile monarch stamped his foot and de-
clared he would never sign another
official document if his diet was denied
him. Emperor I am" he shouted.
"and dumplings will havep' To pre-
vent stoppage of the government
machinery, all opposition was withdrawn
and His Majesty clung tenacieusly to his
dumplings. The imperial phrase is
likely to become proverbial, for already

words were sure to be thrown at him:

THE SERGEANT's CORK LEG.-Modern
science has brought the cork leg. to a
state of perfection which renders it al
most impossible for the casual observer
to detect the difference between the real
sergeant-at-law some years ago who had
a cork leg that was triumph of artistic
deception. None but his intimates knew
for certain which was the real and which
was the sham limb. A wild young wag
of the "utter bar" who knew the SER
geant pretty well, once thought to utilize
this knowledge of the sergeant's secret to
take in green, newly-fedged young
barrister. The sergeant was addressing
special jury at Westminster in his
usual earnest and vehement style, and
the wag whispered to has neighbor.
ssYou see how hot old Buzfuz is over his
case; now, I'll bet you sovereign I'll
run this pm into his leg up to the head,
and he'll never notice it, he's SO absorbed
in his case. He's most extraordinary
man in that way This was more than
the greenhorn could swallow, so he took
the bet. The wag drew large pin from
his waistcoat, and leaning forward drove
it up to the head into the sergeant's leg.
A yell that froze the blood of all who
heard it, that made the hair of the jury
stand on end and caused the judges wig
almost to fall off, ran through the court.
"By Jove! it's the wrong leg, and I've
lost my money" exclaimed the dismayed
and conscience-stricken wag, quite re-
gardless of the pain he had inflicted
upon the learned sergeant.

SIMPsoNBURG's CoNUNDRUM. - Simp-
sonburg is not noted for his activity ;
quite the contrary. At the club the
otner evening he got up energy suf-
ficient to PROFOUND conundrum. Said
he, ssBoys, why am I like torpedo?"
After having recovered from the shock
produced from Simpsonburg's unwonted
activity, the guesses flowed In quick sue
cession, Jones thought it was because a
torpedo is full of empty noise; but that
was not right, Simpsonburg said.
Neither was Robinson's guess, that it
was because torpedo doesn't say any
thing when it speaks. Smith tried to
work out pun on torpedo, torpid oh,
but failed miserably. Everybody began
to look sick. Then Brown tried. He
said it was because torpedo is not good
for anything till its neck is twisted.
Simpsonburg shock his head with some
thing like animation One of the boys
said It was because it was relief when
either went off, and another ventured the
guess, in an undertone, that it was a
blasted nuisance. Finally Simpsonburg
had to divu1ge; he couldn't contain him
self longer. He said it was because he
was full of snap. The boys yawned LAM
guidly; every one of them acknowledged
to Simpsonburg that he should never
have guessed it, which pleased Simpson

A CLAP-TRAP TRICK.

Last night parties hired by the Democrats
sent large invoices Of candles around to the
Chinese wash ouses with instructions to the
Chinese to illuminate, and thus to cast dis

Wells Fargo, hearing of this nipped the game
in the bud by telling the Chinese that they
were intended to be burned at o'clock in the
morning as tribute ef respect to Gen. Han
cock who will be defeated to-day. The Chi.
nese, religicusly believing in the Hancock
version, lighted up their houses at the hour

the mostinexcusiblean and offensive in society

SOZODONT. 1t puri6es and sweetens the

Gentlemen who indulge in smoking should

it removes all unpleasant odors Of the weed.

TIE SACK ARRIVES IN PERsoN.-For some
months past the influence of Col. Fairs sack
has been plainly visible in Ormsby county,
and the distribution of his yellow twenty
pieces was a matter of common Hoteriety.
Yesterday the fountain head of the menied
inspiration of the Democratic party arrived in
person, and he had the same effect upon his
constituents that barrel of Y X Y molasses
has, when unheaded, in the fly season.
Crowds of delighted Democrats who Swallowed
his footsteps; who walked when he walked and
stopped when he stopped. Yet at the same
time it was observed that the crowd kept at a
respectful distance, and only approached him
singly or in pairs When he stood ON Carson
street near the Ormsby House and talked with
a friend it did not take five minutes for sew
eral dozen people to collect within radius of
fifty yards. They stood in groups apparently
to discuss the failure of the wheat crop in Car
son Valley, or the prospects of the west cross
cut in Union. but the conversation on these
subjects tagged as it was quite evident that
no one could keep his eyes off the Monarch of
the Sack for more than two minutes at time
Occasionally he moved about and mingled
with these groups, being received with bows
smiles and hand shakes from all sides, and
some who barely received a nod of recognition
felt as proud and happy as if a mortgage had
been lifted off their homestead.
