Never Recovered.

You see" ne exclaimed, as We sat on
the tavern steps at Sharpsburg and
looked around, this town has never re-
covered from the war"
"What did you have hear before the
war;"
Everything, almost. 1t was the
liveliest little town you ever saw. why,
sir,l sat on these very steps before the
war, and counted six fights all going on
at once. Then we had cooper shop,
three saloons, a tannery, and four shoe
shops"
"All are gone now, | observe"
Every one of EN-, and what's wuss.
you can't start fight here to save your
life. If you should jump out there and
crow and crack your heels, and offer tC
fight the best man in Sharpsburg. nc
one would raise hand
"They wouldn't, eh?"
Not a one. We are humble peo
pie. Here it is, sixteen years after the
close ofthe war, and we are still so down
cast that tin Reddler comes in here
and bluffs the Mayor, ticks the Clerk
sasses the Postmaster and runs away
with the only looking woman we
ever had. and not a man threw brick
bat!"-M Quad.

Two Pairs.

A scene considerably outside of the
common greeted the crowded circus
amphitheater at the afternoon per-
formance yesterday, and produced a
wave of merriment throughout the can
vas. The show band had Just about
concluded the overture, and the crowd
was in expectancy of the initial act,
when two couples made their appear
ance at the entrance near The arena at
tired in wedding costume. The brides
were in full trosseau, with light wells
and orange blossoms, while the grooms
wore the conventional black, which left
no doubt in the minds of those who
gazed at them that they were Just from
Hymen's altar. A Juror, which was
started at the first seats, was quickly
caught up and passed along the long
row of benches with lightning rapidity.
and the bridal party had hardly gotten
fairly into the canvas before ii was the
cynosure of all eyes. An applause
started at the wall benches for the par
ty, and passed along until the amphi-
theater fairly shook under the hearty
encore. The couples, unmindful of the
fact that they had caused the convul-
sion of the benches, quickened their
pace, under the impression that the
uproar was to ring in the performance,
and after walking clear around the
arena in full view of everybody, quiet
ly and unconcernedly took seats in the
reserved quarters -LouiSmHe Courier
