A Whistline Laborer.

4 mason was in the habit of whistl-
ing to his laborer whenever he wanted
fresh supply of mortar, and as the
scaffold on which he wrought was
rather small, this occurred very often
during days job. A joiner noticing
Pat answer dutifully to every call from
the mason, thought of playing a trick
on him by initiating the whistle, and
thus brought him up with hodful of
mortrr when there was no room for it.
The mason told Pat that he had not
whistled, so he had no other alterna-
tive than to trudge back with the load.
This having occurred the third time
during the day, Pat thought he would
watch to hear where the whistle came
from. He had not waited long with
the bod on his shoulder when he
heard the identical whistle underneath
where he stood. and leaning over, he
saw the head of the joiner protruding
out of the window Immediately below.
Pat without more ado emptied the hod
over the whistler's head. The joiner
yelled and sputtered while attempting
to clear himself from the adhesive
mass; and in the midst of his confu-
sion heard Pat above shouting at the
top of his voice, whistle, me bhoy,
when you want some more mortar"

A letter was received at Hartland,
on the Goth from Washington, stating
that George Seoville, counsel for the
assassin of the late President, had
received an offer of $3.50 for the
clothes which Guiteau wore when ne
fired the fatal shot. The letter was
signed by Geo. ScoviIle himself, and
is therefore pretty authentic it also
stated that the warden of the district
prison refused to give up the clothes
until Guiteau shall consent to the
bargain, and Guiteau refuses to agree
unless the money shall be paid to him.
1t is supposed the clothes are wanted
for exhibition.

In the state of Wisconsin there are
1857 places licenced to sell liquor,
the fees from which in the graud
aggregate amount to $188,851O4, of
which $50, 405.49 are turned over to
the poor fund. There are 1876 places
in the state where liquor is sold with
out licence. Adams county grants no
licenses to saloons whatever, and is
the only one in the state that does
not. Milwaukee derives revenue to
the amount of $5O,O52.5o from the
1,056 saloons which are licensed to
sell liquor in that city. In this con-
nection it may be stated that the total
cost of pauperiSm in the state during
the year just passed was $301,00

Advices from Boston say that
Messrs, Colby and Abbot have succeed
ed in securing promises Of pecumiary
aid sufficient to begin the comtemplat-
ed line between Milwaukee and Mena-
sha, and it is stated that Manager
Finney has ordered that construction
be commenced at once. There seems
to be a good deal Of doubt among
railroad officials about the efficacy of
the company's plans as it is generally
acknowledged that there are now more
roads in Northern Wisconsin than the
business warrants.

The LEONARD SCOTT PUBLISHING Co., Al
Barclay Street, New York, have issued their
reprints of the London Quarterly and Edinburgh
Revies0s for January. The former review will
attract much attention, as 1t contains further
criticism OF the Revised Version of the New
Testament. The article In the number for last
October confined itself to an examination Of
the new Greek text that In the present num-
Der handles with severity the new renderings
II the Greek into English. Both articles are
reported TO be from the pen Of Dean Burgcn,
of Chichester. The other articles In this num-
Der worthy OF note are: 'American Politics
and PARTIES 1.-THE Jacobin Conquest Oar
win on Earth Worms" and 1.-THE Comte de
Montlosier." The Edinburgh Review Is a very
full and interesting number. It contains eley-
en- articles. the principal Of which are: "Taine's
Conquest Of the Iacobins,, 1.-THE Life Of Mr..
Cobdep," Ancient Animals Of South Ameri-
Ca" Three artio eg are devoted to subjects
which at present possess unusual interest. viz:
"Tunis and Carthage" . very readable histor-
ical sketch Of a portion Of North Africa hither
to little known; '.Electro-Motive Power" q
popular account Of the steps made toward the,
application of electrical force to mechanical
purposes; and Irish Discomfort" which con-
tains extracts from the literature most widely
read by the Irish people. and attributes much
of the gdisaffection to the publication of the
Young Ireland school. p

DR.. T. F. BLISS EYE AND EAR INSTITUTE
We have frequently heretofore had occasion to
notice the successful esta blishment here of
an Eye and Ear Institute by DR.. T. F. Bliss. It
has now been in operation over year and we
have before us the Annual Report from which
welearn that at the close ofthe first year, the
Register OF the Institute shows that over six
hundred patients have applied for treatment,
representing twenty-eight counties in the vir
Rinias, and ten States OF the Union. Ofthis num-
Der. some diseases were of an organic nature,
admitting oflittle or no benefit from treatment.
A larger classl Of chronic cases that came
with little expectation Of relief. as they had
been led to believe that their diseases were in.
durable. have been greatly benefted-some OF
the most brilliant results occurring in this
class. while OF the large number OF acute dis
eases treated, nearly every one has been fully
restored. -
So great in fact, has been Its success that the
Institute has already gained the confidence Of
all classes in this community.
The Institute is under the entire control of
Or. T. F. Bliss. who Is a regularly educated
Physician, in addition to his special training
as an Oculist and Aurist, with thirteen years
Of practical experience. and has already proved
by his works his eminent fitness for the posi-
ton which he occupies. q....
