On Monday morning, ar hour be-
fore Aurora appeared ON the horizon
with her fiery chariot, the quiet and
repose of one Of our citizens was
broken in upon by that. irritating
nuisance, a feline serenade. Hav-
ing been awakened several times
during the night from the same
cause, and a respectable time hav-
ing passed after the Sabbath, he
sailed forth with a shotgun to de-
fend himself against the outrages
Of early rising cats. One old fellow
was seen sitting off by the fence
with his back bowed in true chart
vari style and his tail lashing the
rain and mud. The enraged citizen
took aim at this old patriarch and
fired. Scarcely had the charge left
the gun when q party concealed in
the dark shadows Of the shade trees
in front of the residence of his girls
pap, broke forth from his conceal
mer.t and ran; making about the
same amount of noise and clatter in
bringing his feet in contact with the
pavement as is produced by a nail
mill in full operation. The party
has been interviewed and, following
the prestage OF O'Reilly and Brogan,
gives several reasons for his location
and his unusual hours. Essays "the
early bird catches the worm," that
he "wus out for the purpose Of
jumping a claim and that "his
neighbors sent him for the doctor"
but the impression left on the wit
ness was that he had squeezed the
night out to a late hour in the morn
ing; owing to an ungovernable re-
greet to leave his girl. The party
firing the gun killed the cat, how
ever.

A few mornings since upon enter

lying on the table, addressed To-
- marked dynamite, and sign
ed by one of the chloroform dealers.
W. yer scared; we ran from the
room, called for the Devil, (our
printers devil), who is generally
considered proof against all COM
bustibles and explosives, but he was
not to be found; and each moment
of suspense made the thing more
horrible. We thought Of the Irish
league, the Phoenix Park murders,
the government Office explosion of
England, and Russian nihilism, all
Of which we felt were planning our
destruction, and destined to be our
doom. Our agitated movements up
and down the stairs, however,
brought the devil to his post, who,
seeing us somewhat exercised over
the affair. began suggesting plans for
the removal of the dynamite. FL
nally we ordered him to hold a gal
ley to the edge Of the table while
we, with the long crooked poker.
pulled the package off onto the gal
ley, then taking the bellows we blew
wind on it to keep it cool while he
dumped it INTO the water pail.
When the wrapper became saturated
with water, it came off and'the con.
tents fell into the bucket, when 10
and behold they proved nothing

wads which some malicious person
had so arranged a. to trighten us al
