From the Courierl A Man Who Did Not Mistake His Calling. AS usual, MaIley is making things lively on Chapel street. Yesterday during the entire day his establish ment was a scene of activity marvellous to behold. Thousands people rushed to the great bazaar early in day eager to the first selection of those goods damaged by fire and water. Table linens, tow els, crashes mems underwear, ladies' muslin under wear, goods cloaks, cotons etc., etc., were dis posed of at rapid rate at prices far below market value.
 From the Register.l
 More Common Sense Is displayed by the inhabitants of Connecticut in leaving their dollars with Ma1ley than they placed the same in the savings bank. Why? you ask. We'll, we creditay informed that Malley is at present selling goods at about fifty cents the dollar. In this you double your money at once the oth hand, you wait twelve years for the suit. The place crowded to-day, and every cus- toner had parcel with Maley's wrapper around it. The constant query is for the wet goods.

HuniOr in the Family.

Good humor is rightly reckoned a
most valuable aid to happy home life.
An equally good aud useful faculty is
a sense Of humor, or the capacity to
have q little fun along with the hum
drum of life. We all know how it
brightens things up generally to have
q lively, witty companion, who sees
the ridiculous points Of things, and
who can turn any annoyance into an
occasion for laughter. 1t does a great
deal better to laugh over some domes-
tic mishaps than TO cry or Scold over
them. Many homes and lives are dull
because they are allowed to become
too deeply impressed with a sense of
the care and responsibilities of life
TO recognize its bright and especially
its mirthtul side. l,to such a house.
hold, good, but dull, the advent of
witty, humorous friend is like sun
shine to cloudy day. While it is
oppressive TO hear people constantly
striving to say funny things, it is
comfortable, seeing what brightener
little fun is, to make an effort to
have some at home. 1t is well to turn
off an impatient question sometimes
and to regard it from a humorous point
Of view, instead OF becoming irritated
about it. "What, what is the reason
can never find n clean shirtw ex-
claimed good but rather impatient
husband, after rumaging through the
wrong drawer His wife looked at
him steadily for moment, half in
clincd to be provoked, then with a
comical look replied: 81 never could
guess conundrums; must give it up"
Then he laughed, and they both laugh
ed, and she went and got his shirt, and
he felt ashamed of himself and he kiss
ed her, and then she felt happy; and
so what might have been all occasion
for hard words and unkind feelings
became ust the contrary. Laughter
is better than tears. Let us have lit
tie more at home.

Mr.. Swamp's Funeral.

Recently Mr.. swamp was engaged
in digging well at the back OF his
house, when he became alh.rst and
went down town 10 get drink, lcav-
ing his coat beside tue mouth OF the
well. While down town he took sew
eral drink, and having assaulted q
negro, kicke out window and COM
mitted other excuses, he was arrested
and sent 10 the island underan assum-
ed name. Meanwhile his well caved
in and his coat being found near it,
his family thought he was buried
alive. They made great fuss and
tried 70 find his body, but failing in
that they determined to hold tune-
raj and bury q coffin in his honor
However, they didn't let it he known
that they hadn't got his body. The
day of the funeral was the day swamp
got out of Jail. On approaching his
house he saw something was going on
there, and stepped up to a man and
asked him what it was. The man
took one look at Swamp, turned pale
and fed. Swamp was puzzled and
entered the house to investigate
When the servant saw him enter, she
gave one yell and tainted. More sur
prised, he pushed ahead and met two
or three who also fled from him in ter
ror. Afterrepeated failures to discover
what the matter was he stole up behind
man, grabbed him, and dragged
him into a corner under tue stairs and
sat upon him until, after the fellow
had nearly died of terror, he got calm
enough toexplain what was going on.
Then swamp ran to the parlor where
the ceremony was in progress. The
clergyman had Just said You all
know he was q sober, peaceable and i'll
dustriUus citizen, a man against whom
no charge Of wrong doing or disgrace-
nl conduct was ever raised !" Then
swamp roared out: For heavens
sake, parson, hold onw And then,
while the people who recognized him
and thought it was his ghost began to
| yell, amt some piled OUT OF the Win
dows while Others tainted, he contln-
ued "pm much obliged for your
certificate of character but It's a lie,
Tor I'm just out OF jail for getting
drunk, fighting u Niger ami making
an ass Of myself generally. But
though amt tit subject for a funer-
al, TT be glad to have thi, crowd join
me in a dance to cele Jrate my return"
But the par-on locke / severe aud took
his hat and lett; owamp's wife gotup
from a swoouund SAIL 10 her husuanI:
Don't act like fool, you old idioJw
and the people who naln't run away
in terror went home i'll gloomy
frame OF mnd, fully satisfied Ihat
Swamp ought to Ue ashamed ot him

CHASTITY Discovery In a Cave.

Messrs. Doanc, Enfield 4 Blake
were surveying and locating the boun-
diaries of the chihuahua Mino in the
Magdalona mountains, about twenty
five miles west OF Socorro, where they
made a somewhat startling discovery.
In claiming down the hill from the
center stake TO the west side line they
passed nearly over All opening in the
rocks that was about three feet long
and fourteen inches wide. A small
dead tree about fifteen feet in length
was let down into the aperture
and Immediately disappeared from
view. A young pine tree thirty feet
long was then chopped down and a
ladder hastily improviscd theretrom.
Carefully let down it finally found Sc
sure foothold, and two Of the party
descended into the cavern. By the aid
of some lighted pine knots they dis
covered that they were in tho centre
Of room about thirty feet square,
continuing their explorations they
found natural tunnels leading to two
Other but smaller chambers. The cell.
ing Of the main room was fully twelve
feet from the floor. In one corner O,
this room were found the bones of a
human being. Part Of tho rock over
head had fallen in and buried the
greater number of the bones, but ono
of the collar blades and bone from
the forearm were obtained in an excel
lent state Of preservation.

Ayenging Her Daughters Wrong

Ayenging Her Daughters Wrong.
New ORLEANS February Yesterday
noon a scene occurred at Philip Hirsch's
cooper shop, middle-aged woman, who to
all appearances seemed to be German,
being the central figure. There shone an
unusual glitter in the womans eyes that
BODIED 10 good to some one She looked
about the shop until her vision rested upon
young man of about "a years, who, seem.
ing to understand that he was wanted,
reluctantly approached the lady, and once
being within herreach, sheproduCed stout
hickory stick and began furiously using
it over the body of the young man,
who took to his heels pursued by the
woman who, while keeping up the ohas-
tisement, accompanied the blows by de-
nouucing him as d scoundrel, He, how.
ever, proved feeter of foot than his assail,
ant and soon widened the distance, when
she, from sheer exhaustion, had TO give up
the chase. Ii was ascertained that the
woman was Mrs. Henry Kans,
who, with her two daughters, Caro-
line and Annie, resides on St. Anna,
between Miro and Tonti streets. At
the Klaus residence it was learned that
the individual was John Krantz, but was
also known as Jonn Jacobs. He had been
visiting the family for the year, and
has been alternately playing the
Don Juan with the two daughters
until the mother, some months since, was
astounded to find that both would shortly
become mothers. She tried to bring
Krantz to terms. He promised to marry
Caroline, but would never agree on date,
and, from day to day and week to week,
postponed the event until the mother re.
Gently ascertained the cause of his procras-
tinatlon in the fact that he was a married
man. Resolved to avenge her daughters
wrongs, she visttd his place Of business for
that purpose, when he escaped with few
blows, but she VOWS that if she ever lays
hands on him she will kill him. Krantz
has not been heard of or seen since, and it
| is said he has left the city,
