in the shekels OF the people, and that
the wonders Of the tent were all imag-

more wanting in truth. A visit to the
menagerie disclosed the fact that all
the rare and curious animals advertised

that there were also number Of won.

Henry Watterson, writing from
New York to his paper-The Louis
Vile Cowier.JouInai-of the situation
in New York, says; at is only pity
that the democrats are so poorly Of in
New York, in point of both leaders
and condition, as to be unable to de-
rive much profit out of the discussions
among the Republicans. We have
really nobody, or next to nobody to
put up for Governor. Even il We
had, a union among the democrats
seems impossible. So the party may
as well dismiss New York from their
calculations, and prepare to go West
for a presidential nominee in 1884"

How the World says "HOE ID

Most of us say "Howdedo 2" and
think we have said, "How do you do?"
"How are you?" is more elegant, per

In old times English speaking peo-

and "God save you;" and long ago
men as we'll as women, "kissed for
courtesy" English and American
men now consider such salutation as
absurd between persons of their own
sex.
Frenchmen, however, are not asham-

carry yourself?" and Germans crush
each other, bear fashion, as they cry,
"How do you find yourself?"
The italian gives both airy clasp

fingers in the air and cried, How dc

''How do you fare 2" is generally only
followed by clap on the shoulder.

shoulders, they ask, "How can your
