Mr.. uudgc's Troabie.

Some years ago, when the writer was
reporter. it deyolved on him to write
for the same edition an account Of the
presentation Of a gold-headed cane to
the Rev. Mir. Nudge, the clergyman OF
the place, and description Of new
hog-killing machine that had just been
in operation at the factory. Now, what
made the Rev. Mr.. Nudge mad was
this (: The inconsiderate compositor who
made up the forms got the two accounts
mixed up in . frightful manner, and
when il went to press something like
this was the appalling result
Some Of the Rev. Mr. Mudgs's
friends called on him yesterday, and,
after brief consultation, the unsus-
pectiDg hog was seized by the hind legs
and slid along the beam until it reached
the hot-water tank. His friends ex-
planned the object Of the visit. and
presented him with gold-headed
butcher, who grabbed him by the tail
and swung him around, and in less
than a minute the carcass was in hot
water. Therefore he came forward and
said there were times when the feelings
oyerpowered one, and for that reason
he could not do more than TO attemPtto
thank those around for the manner in
which such an animal was cut into ffsg-
ments was astonishing. The Doctor
concluded his remarks, the machine
seized him, ard in less time than it
takes TO write it, the hog was cut into
fragments, and worked into delicious
sausages. The occasion will be remem-
bered by the Doctors friends al one Of
the most pleasant OF their lives. The
best pieces can be obtained for seven
cents pound, and we are sure those
who sat under his ministry will rejoice
TO hear that he has been so handsomely
treated"
Mad Well, about Q O'Clock that
morning the office had been abandoned
by every man but the advertising clerk,
and he assembled 10 the roof. so that no
could see the clergyman tearing around
down in the street with his congregs-
ton all wearing the panoply Of war,
and carrying stout cudgels and other
things. The next day We apologired,
but the Doctor stopped his paper.
