sALiNING A MARRIAGE LIcEA..

- "
Tho Buffalo Courier tells Of q gentle
man Of that city whose heart was won
by o belle in neighboring Pennsyl-
vania town. An engagement followed,
and in due time the wedding-day was
set The prospective groom it appears,
regarded his abnegation OF bachelor
hood with o sort Of rueful misgiving,
which increased as the days Of his
liberty waned. His last revolt against
the shackles Of matrimony occurred
when he was sent TO procure the mar
riage license, few days before the
ceremony. He sought the city official
who presided over the license depart
ment and asked, gravely;
- " Is this where licenses are kept ?"
Eyes, sir" answered the clerk,
politely; what kind Of license do
you want?"
"Well, what kind havo you got ?"
reioined our friend, with superhuman
gravity.
The clerk had begun to look upon his
visitant MS lunatic, but ho obligingly
ratified oil the list,
"Give you a license to drive hack,
give you :. license to pull teeth or prao-
tice medicine, give you pawnbroker
or huckster's license, give you license
to keep gunpowder in the house"
J "Stop," said our friend, Quietly,
"that's what / want"

A Texas Judge has decided that
when one man in that State APP
proaches another with his hands in
hispockets tits an invitation to shoot.
A Virginia Judge, ofhappy mem
DRY, once decided that calling a man
liar was equivalent to knocking
him down, and he could thereafter
govern himself accordingly.
A valuable discovery ofpetroleum
has been made on Vancouver Island.
A sample was taken to Victoria, and
gave very satisfactory test as to its
burning quality and specific gravity.
The scene of the discovery is a point
near the eastern side of Vancouver
Island, and within five miles of the
seashore, where there is good har-
Dor for ships.

Entertaining An Angel

He was "A real nice young man, wore
good clothes went to Sunday with
regularity and had an excellent opinion
of his own moral character. He walked
into great clothing store in search of a
situation, and said; Il would like a place"
ANY experience asked the head of the
great establishment. Not much, but
am man of good habits" "So?" ayes;
] never swear drink or chew; never play
cards or 20 to races; don't bet on base
ball games or 60 round at night" "Any-
thing else?' 81 don't gamble, frequent
bucket-shops or bet on elections" The
employer seemed satisfied, for he called
out to the head salesman with James,
just see if our angel department is full,
and if not send this young man up"

THE reporter of the New York
Sun shows the situation of the Dem
ocratic party in regard to the
gubernatorial question and other
issues. In speaking of the political
organization, says, "the little COM
monwealth is nevertheless torn by
one of the most earnest contests she
has ever known" The situation is
highly colored, and considerable
guess work INDUCED in. The state
may be nicely fixed for the 14th Of
August, but may be badly broken
on the 18th.
