| A cookery book says, always smell
a salt goldfish before buying it." We
always do, and after buying it, too
for three or four days after. The fact
is, you can smell sailed Goldfish with
out buying it at all, if you get within
ten rods of where it is. The odor of
sailed Goldfish is like the darkness
that once settled on Egypt; it is some
hing that can be felt.

which has caused sensation in high social

fruits of the union up to August, 1881, when
he secured a position in the navy and

given birth to child last May. The Doc
| tors statement was corroborated by the
Sarah TasEcr a colored midwife, who at.
| tended Mrs Perry in her accouchment.
| Perry went home, accused his wife of inf
deity, aud then returned to his parents
house where he is now residing. Mrs. Per-
| ry still retains possession of the dwelling
where Perry and his wife had resided for
several years previous TO his leaving on the

dtion she deceived the neighbors by pre-
tending to be dropsical. The child was
born at midnight of May &c, and immedi
atcly given in charge of colored woman to
raise. 1t died in July last and was buried
in Perry's family lot in Western Cemetery.

ton of her husband forbiddiug persons
