"The course of true love never did run
smooth" and lovers mishaps have been among
the uppermost themes with all writers, from the
remotest ages of the past up to the present In
fact, the trouble seems TO have commenced with
the history of our first parents, in the garden of
Eden when Eve got hold of green apple and
was tackled by the cramp collie. As Adam had
never attended medical institute and was but
little skilled in the diagnosis of diseases, and the
family physician having gone down the Eu
pirates for fortnght's frolic, he concluded that
the jig was up with Eve; and, as they had been
married but IL short time and the sweets of the
honey moon had not given place to connubial
cussedness, he very naturally fell into q fine
frenzy, tore his hair, and il is said, got off an
excellent piece OF acting, (after the style of the
dime novel hero,) and climaxed the tragedy by
eating the remaining piece of the apple that had
made Eve sick, vowing that he would die with
her rather than live without her. "a great many
lovers have since plagiarized on this passage
from ADAM. This piece of supreme nonsense,
though they temporarily recovered from the ef-
fects of the unwholesome fruit, cbst them both

he has been brazenly plagiarized upon in modern
times)
Parental damphoolitiveness has long been the
greatest obstacle in the way of the even flow of
true love. In the feudal ages the penalty for be-
ing soft on an old fellows daughter-or rather
for being caught up with-was sure death, some
times TO one, oftener to both; knowing which,
the young folks frequently had recourse to tooth
picks and such like, to let the blood out OF their
veins But, Notwithstanding all this, foolish and
desperate young fellows would run all sorts of
risks for equally desperate and foolish young
women-such things as scaling castle walls at
midnight, climbing up rope ladders let down
from high up back windows sometimes only to
find an irate and awful parent waiting for them

or carving knife bulldogs and box toed boots

many and persistent attempts to suppress the
nuisance win ever be successfully. The bulldog
and box-bool, above referred to, now take the
livehest kind OF a pan in such affairs; and many

broken jews-harp and demolished accordeon,

and slops are also occasionally called int SER
vice; and, in obstinate and aggravating cases,
squirrel shot sometimes prove e6ectual in re-
moving the malady. But there Is growing
popularity in favor OF the bulldog; in conse-
quence of which, an unusually large crop is be-
ing cultivated, and the yield at present promises
TO supply the demand for the next season.
Appropos to this, is an incident that happened
in our own town few evenings since: A gay
widOwer of not many months was spending the
evening in the smiles Of one Of bis adored. He
tarried late, 10th to Danish him from her pres
ence; but the near approach of the warning hand
to twelve finally made it necessary for him to
start But, getting no further than the head of the
precipitous stairway, he turned and went back
and fingered still. Essaying q second time to go,
at the head of the stairway again, he remem-
bered to 60 back and get a light for his cigar,
forgetting, though, the box of matches in his
pocket When he started the third time he had
become totally oblvous to the existence of the
stairway and, the hall being unlighted, he made
a sudden and unceremonious dive for the bot
tom, which he succeeded in finding together
with several severe bruises. Picking himself
up, confused and chagrined, he began beating a
hasty retreat from the scene of his disaster. He
had proceeded some distance before becoming
aware that the fall had ignited the box Of
matches in his coat pocket, and that the skirt
was in blaze. He did become aware of it,
though, and-well thus were marred the pleas
ures of an evenings courtship.

"A Druggist at Portland Maine, was aroused
in the night by man who wanted to buy some
brandy. The druggist refused 10 sell it, fearing
prosecution under the Prohibition law. The
man declared the liquor was for his wife, who
had been taken violently ill., and might die unless
she got it; so he was given a small quantity.
He was really temperance spy, and on the fol-
lowing day had the dealer arrested.

Some OF the groups are nodded in dozen

The material of these groups, as
you know, is composition of two
or three superior sorts of plaster, or
ground gypsum, with mixture of silicious
powder to improve its quality. This is
mixed to the consistency of a thickish
fluid, and run into molds of glue. This

quarters of an hour, till, by slight accre-
tions, the statue is built up on the inside
of the mold thick enough to cut off the
glue. The statuettes are all hollow, but
they are solid enough to be handled with
safety. They are not very frangible, and,
when broken can be mended, as the mate
rial all through is now of the same color
as the surface.

"STUFFED" MoNEY.-The following is

STUFFED MONEf,- Hc lolloWluS Is
from the Nevada City Herald of August
l4th
A few days ago as E. NJ. Preston, of the
Citizens Bank, was counting over num-
ber of $50 pieces, he noticed that one OF
them did not sound right. He weighed it
and found it to be genuine Government
stamped $50 of the exact weight. But ON
close examination he discovered that it
was stuffed. What is meant by stuffed
$50 is a genuine $40 piece filled with other
metal. The means used for filling coins
with such is as follows The piece Of
money is split on the edge and then a
small drill is used for the purpose of boring
a hole and taking out all the gold possible
without doing too much damage to the
coin. The hole is then stuffed with other
metal and the exact amount as the gold
taken from the piece is inserted. The hole
is then closed and so neatly mended that
it requires close scrutiny to detect the
flaw. The only way they are generally
discovered is owing to the dullness of the
sound. A. D. Tower, Wells, Fargo & Co.'S
agent, found stuffed s. piece this week
among some money.
