A PRACTICAL JOKE. Mr.. d. w.
Doll, our genial clerk of the County
Court, who has a great fancy for pre-
serving all sorts of relics, showed us
Geographic message the other day,
that was received here, or at least
purported to have been received, IS
years ago, and called to mind hoax
that was practiced on the Court, which
was in session at the time, the Mayor
of the town, the late Anthony S.
Chambers, and others, by some ways
of the town. Many of our citizens
will recognize the subjoined despatch
es, as having been exhibited and read
in open court with all seriousness in
August, 1858, when the first of exper-
iment of an Atlantic cable was in pro-
gress, and public expectation was on
tip toe, as to the success or failure of
the project, as being the first messages
exchanged between the old and new
worlds ON the completion of the cable.
Everybody was so much impressed
with the Importance of the occasion
that the judge adjourned court, the
mayor had the bells rung and issued
a congratulatory proclamation, and a
wonderful time was being had over
the event, until it was discovered
that the whole thing was huge joke,
and the cable had not been completed
at all. The following are the bogus
messages:
