Hartmann and Rosa.

The New York Times, in discoursng on
pretended Fiends, gives the following first
class notice to two of those who have recently
obtained much notorety in that city:
The truth undoubtedly is that Mr.. Hart
mann is an enterprising man of uncertain ma
tionality, who intends either to open a beer
shop, to start life insurance company, or
possibly to organize scheme for erecting a
monument to the memory of the late Edgar
A. Poe. In order to succeed in either of
these occupations, he needs to bring himself
into notice, and he is now claiming to be a
dynamite iiend, merely as o business adver-
tsement. In the course of the next two
months we shall find him selling beer in oppo-
sition to Mr.. Justus Schwab, or lecturing on
longevity and a new system of life insurance,
by which every holder of policy is to receive
two thousand dollars annually as dividends
upon an investment of fifty dollars, or hiring
the Academy of Music and announcing that
Tennyson, Browning, the Pope of Rome and
the Turkish Sultan will take part in a grand
Poe memorial concert. In all probability he
never saw an ounce of dynamite, and never
blew up anything except toy balloon. He
comes here and annoys Mr.. Blaine and upsets
Mr.. Wendell Phillips digestion with his mis-
cradle false pretences, with no other thought
than that of advertising himself in a cheap
and effective way.
Unfortunately, Mr.. Hartmann is not the
only person who is doing a lourishing bust
ness under dynamite pretenses. Mr.. O'Don
ovan Ressa, and a number of other lazy pa
triots, are collecting rich harvest of SIX
penses from Irish servant girls, by pretend
ing to be dynamite fiends. Whenever an
explosion occurs anywhere on English soil
or on board an English vessel, Mr.. O'Dono-
van Rosa and his pals instantly claim that 1t
was their own dynamite that did the work.
In the intervals between accidental explosions
they hold secret meetings at which they pub
licly announce that they are making active
to blow the greater part Of the
British Empire into fragments. Thinking
men will at once perceive the absurdlty OF
Imposing that Mr.. O'Donoyan Rosa or any
other patriot of his particular species would
waste, in buying dynamite, the money col
lected from servant girls. Undoubtedly they
hate England aud would like to produce an
inexpensive explosion, whereby a
few Englishmen might be killed, bat, with
whisky and cigars at their present price, they
have too much sense to spend money IN such
work. Mr.. o'DonOyan Rosa
may be weak man-and from the fact that
he cannot make up his mind whether his
name is O'Douovan or Rosa, he probably IS
very weak indeed-but no man with inteliect
enough to collect a skirmishing fund will ever
be guilty of the folly Of buying dynamite IN
preference TO whisky.

Not Buried, But Married.

A solemn ceremony was performed in New
ark, n. J., last Saturday, with peculiar &C
eessories The characters participating we're
a widower, his four daughters and young
man, the lover OF the second daughter. The
eldest aud younges, daughters were spending
a vacation in the Adirondacks at a quiet
hotel, while the other daughters remained 81
home with their father. On Friday the ah-
seat sisters received a telegram announcing
that .'Emma will be buried on Saturday az
ternoon. Will yoa Gomez The two sad
girls started for the depot, but missed the
train. They ielegraphed back the words,
''What Emma aud in the morning received
this answer to their telegram: "I0 our sister
Emma, of course" They started at once for
their desolate home, eoniaring up All manner
Of sudden ealamtties 70 aecoHnt for the taking
OF Of poor Emma On reaching Newark
their father joined them in the carriage, and
was astoaisked al seeing them in tears, and
wondered al theirsobs Of ''Emms, oh Emma. =
He said "You both knew this was gong on
for a year. aae al last il WAS explained shat
Emma was to be married, not buried. Ia
the evening the wedding took place, but the
sisters, who we're absent, have not yet recov.
cred from the shock caused BY the stupid
earelessness Of the telegraph operator. The
people al the hotel have been apprised q the
dsaoument hy brief telegram, sisaply saying
s'Not buried, bat married - which, ii IS 10 be
hoped, ihey have received without masilssi0a.

In the district OF Saratow, in Russia, new
religious sect, called The Underground
Sect, is said to be gaining followers. The
peculiar name is derived iroa The habit,
praciiced by the followers of this eccentric
form Of belief, Of seeking out caves and other
subterranean places Of refuge as habitations.
They live an ascetic life, taking only bread
and water for food aud drink. aud tolerating
no union Of the sexes. Their dead are bur
led under cover of night, from which the no
ton has gained currency among the peasaniry
that they throw the bodies into the Voiga.

A WIFE SOLD FOR A DoLLAR.-A. Lauten,

wife with being too intimate with Ferdinand
Jeueen, builder, in the presence OF the
latter, whereupon the rate Mrs. I-autcn chal-
lenged her husband to make good his proffer
tovsell her to Jansen for one dollar. Lauten
executed the sale, with a written agreement,
and Jansen paid the dollar. The next day
Mrs. Lauten removed her trarpings, and
made her home with her new purchaser.
Lauten has begun suit for an absolute divorce
from his wife, and she responds by instituting
suit for a divorce from her husband. In the
long run, it is probable that Jansen will find
out that he has the worse part of the bargain
