MARTHA TROY is a woman of great
avordupois. At least we suppose she is,
as she finds it necessary to have team
with which to convey herself around.
Martha has figured somewhat in the
Courts of Jackson, having been arrested
here for taking too close fancy to other
peoples rigs. But Martha, like other
bits of driftwood floating upon the stream
of time, passed away, and was almost
forgotten, when 10! a few days ago who
should come driving into town but Mar
tha, in all the glory of rig alleged to
have been Borrowed" away up in
Holmes county, Ohio. Marshal Owens,
who is ever kind to horse, and gallant
to the women, persuaded Martha to put
up her horse, and gallant to the women,
persuaded Martha to put up her horse
and abide with him day or two, as he
was expecting company" in the shape of
an official friend or two from Holmes
county.
Owens arrested the gentle Martha for
larceny.
On Tuesday, Constable Selders, of
Holmes county, came and took the slip
perry Martha away. She had stolen three
horses, the horse and buggy she brought
here having been stolen from Jonathan
Bailey, of Licking county.

Uncle PETE on Nobility.

spell out the thread of Juvenile Historical Work
what is a nobleman ?''
My chile" said the old man, dat word has dfent
meanins. Iu some kentries it men who are
suck away above mos of therfeller creaurs, by
son of wealth. and social and cial position. Accor-
din to my idee- any honest upright is noble
man. Eut whar ye'z reedn dar it means man ele-
waited by reason of wealth, edlcashen bravery,
or somethin of dat kind"
Dem said Jim Mr. Limberger, who keeps de
sloon dar is Nobleman-l.ase he red he was

''Now Jim, you gway. know what kind of Count
the inside Now i'm let me tell We somethin to re-
member. Whenever ye hear man talkin bout de
grand times he had in his own kentry and tryin to
force his outlandish views dis kentry you js set
him down a fraud. Eff he'd liked de ways well
in his own kentry, he'd stayed dar. Whenever a
set o. men thro atens to control dis kentry by
men of certain nationality votin sofdy way or

Guy'ment-dey is turnin it into of races. Sfch
Count as Limberger is no account in any kentry.
His idea is dat only three qualifications is necessary
in a statesman dat is to drink to stink, to howl
ribald songs on Sunday. Ye'z got portant 'spon-
sibility yer shoulders, Jim. Ye mus use every

To have one mans measure meted
out to him again is sometimes severe
test. Il have weighed the two pounds
Of butter you sent me this morning. y
said an irate customer to a dealer in
the above mentioned article, land am
surprised to find that it is short weight
just three ounces. If that is your
way of dealing [ must buy my butter
somewhere else" The butter mer-
chant looked surprised, but without
declaring his innocence replied: well,
that is very strange, because | put the
two pounds of sugar | bought of you
in the scales, and gave you the full
weight in butter.

Martha, DEAR beg of you let this Sabbath pass
Without continual teazn' of me to go to Glass;
| know you think it duty, but then, sometimes, You

In performances of duty am prone 10 be too slow

And keep my own immortal soul above all worldly
strife,
But I've learned, from observation, that you canno
righteous man by what he says-and, Martha, it is
well.
have myself got up to give my Testimony in,
And have felt while doin' that was free from
sin,
Yet when come to think it er and view the matter
right,
fear my stock of righteousness would lily bear the
light.
Then there's Deacon Bluff shoves up his cheek and
says that he is sure
That all within his righteous heart absolutely pure
And when the Deacon settles down, relapsing into
sleep,
His Testimony upward goes and makes the angels
weep.
Then Brother Bady bounces up aud tells, with SOL
emn face,
That down the Western slope of life' he runs with
rapid pace;
And thus he tells, in solemn tones, with many blink
That, while he shonld be climbing up, he's swiftly
sliding doDn.
And as with Baldy and with Bluff it runs the whole
way through,
Each speaks of his purity, but tells nothing
have doubt but God does give his blessings rich
and free,
To all who go to him in ftl-I know He's kind me
But, though from every Class' loud professions
upward roll,
Our works must be Christian claims-acords can
not save soul.
And, Martha people wiH beyond the mere profession
look
They not for tie title page, they the
book;
And if our earthly records made up of sin and
crime,
In making loud professions only waste time !;
How sad, should get up and say that sancti fed
To hear some one who knows say: 1.-The wretch
he knew he liedr'
So, Martha have thought it best for stay away
And in the quiet of my home daily watch and pray
And ever try to keep the Path by all Christians

The path that leads away from sin, and leads up

Without continual teazin mel cannot go to Glass!

FROM Wells. in Somersetshire. a

FROM Wells, in Somersetshire, an
extraordinary case of superstition is
reported. The wife of workingman
became mentally affected, and was re-
moved to lunatic asylum. Immedi-
ately before her departure it was
stated that she was bewitched, and
the following mode of removing the
spell was proposed to the husband
First he must stick large number of
pins in an animals heart, which in
the dead of night was to be roasted
before a quick fire, the revolutions Of
the heart to be as regular as possible
After roasting, the heart was to be
placed in the chimney and left there,
the belief being that, as the heart
rotted away, so would the heart of
the witch rot, and the bewitched
would be released from the power of
her enemy.

He was a shrewd grocer; and, when
the lady who was going to have the
sewing society came down for jug OF
vinegar, he filled the jug with whisky
And folks quietly asked her where she
bought her vinegar, and the next day
the grocer sold six barrels Of cheap
vinegar to the customers who thronged
his store. And, though they were all
pretty mad, they couldn't very well
kick, as he had given them what they
had called for, and then to say any
thing would be to get laughed at.
