WoNDEBFUL PHESoIESON.-It l. fact
that our bump of maryelousness Is not large
~ develOped-at least so phreuOiogists tell
us-stiH we cannot doubt that there are
many marvellous things in this little world of
Ours-many occurrences which are strangely
significant, if We could but read them-di-
vine their mystic characters, Witness the
following During the visit of the late comet
to this earth, it will be remembered there
was season Of great excitement. Nillerism
was in its glory. Sights, signs and wonders
were the entire order of the day, and no one
was qualified for the "kingdom," without
ample experience in visions.
Among the multitude Of signs and Won
ders that were announced as having appear
ed, some Western papers put forth one per
haps that will not be uninteresting in this
year 1881, for which such wonderful phe
nomena dire occurrences have heen predict
ed. We think the warning impellsd is high
ly appropriate at this time, and we hore it
viii strike deep into the hearts of many of
our readers. The strange phenomenon is
reported as follows
Mr.. Biindman, pilot on a fiatboat on the
Ohio, recently saw a most wonderful sight in
the heavens. He ewas watching, eagerly, the
comets tail when, ali at once, he saw it
curled up and form, in big letters, the word
PAY"
He didn't pay much attention to it. but in
a few minutes he looked round again, and
saw distinctly, in the same place, the word
"THE."
Astonished at this, lie ran below to inform
the captain, and when he got back and look
ed up at the tail, he found that it had chang
ed again, and had formed the word
PRINTER"
Whereupon he and the captain marveIed
greatly. and did resolve, instantly to heed
the admonition, and as soon as they got
home, to Pay The Printer ~
Miss PAILAs EUDoKA VoS BLURKY,
She didn't know chicken from turkey;
High Spanish and Greek
She could nuently speak,
But her knowledge Of peultry was murky.
She could tell tne great uncle of Moses,
And the date Of the wars of the Roses,
And the reason OF things
Why the Indians wore rings.
In their red aboriginal noses.
Why ySha5espearew was wrong in his grammar,
And the meaning of Emerson's "BTahma." "
And she went choppmg rocks,
With a little black box
And a small geographical hammer
She had views upon co-educatiOn,
And the principal need of the nation,
And her glasses were blue,
And the number she knew
| OF the stars in each high constellation.
/ And she wrote i'm handwriting clerky,
/ And she talked with an emphasis jerby
And she painted on tiles
In the sweetest Of styles,
BuE she d.dg't know chicken from turkey.

WASHINGTON. ON. THE VETO.

Washington, March 3.-The Republicans in
Washington are highly rrltated at the veto Of the
funding bill, They say that the President had no
right at the end of his term to commit the party
to the cause Of the national bankp, which have
just alarmed aud angered even the most conserV
alive classes OF the community by their manifes
tatiOn Of the will and Of the power to throw all
the business Of the country into confusion at a
moments notice, In defense Of what they chose
ID imagine to be their own interests They are
equally displessed at the way In which the Presl
dent, as they think has arrayed the party in op'
position to the 8 per cent. rate without directly
making that rate an issue in his veto message In
short, the President has pleased nobody but those
democrats who have been in doubt whether the
Funding Bill would be q success as passed, and
Who now being relieved OF all anxiety on that
subject see their way clear to applaud the action
Of Congress without hesitation.
