THE swINDLER TO THE DUPE

Oh! do sell me those lean horses,
Says the swindler to the dupe;
viii pay you with a mortgage on some
land;
You can see Draper Tall, Particle,
Stensgaard or some other fellow,
Who 1 know are men of honor, nerve ana
sand.
II
They will cash this pretty mortgage
In a wink of your big lop ear,
And the money you viii get shall be your
own:
Or nole they'll kindly give you,
With big interest as rule,
And what fields of hope and pleasure you
may roam.

But when you would collect it
You will find yourself detected,
As you see that you have been
A cuSsed fool;
You will have pictured copy
OF forgery most rocky,
Which accounts for the big interest

You will then cry out o'hellum

And you'll wonder why they rudely
Pass you by:

There Gagged up to the eleventh
That they may do saltwater jobs

A MONOLOGUE.

The shad fly is a curious animal, appar
emily all wings and tail. She is gregarious
never being seen in less numbers than
l 5000 at time She has nomanners and
few customs. Her habits show utter reck-
lessness and entire absence of regard for re-
suits. Her life is short and her death almost
invariably tragical. Where she comes from
no one knows except those fellows whose
entire lives are spent with net in
hand securing the country in search
of bugs. But all the general public
knows of her is that suddenly she appears in
swarms and spends all her time around gas
and electric lights. She goes wild with Joy
and dances quadrilles and lancers around the
light till her wings get singed and she drops.
One of her special delights is to roost on a
pink and white awning in close proximity
TO light. On some hot nights at the latter
end of June and the beginning of July such
places as the windows of the Boston, the
lamp opposite the Merchants hotel or
Brunswick are made dark by the big i'll
Sects, as they whirr around the lights in
their crazy efforts at suicide by burning
The sidewalks become slippery, the cutters
become choked with their dead bodies. Last
Monday morning they lay over foot thick
i'll the gutter at the corner of Third and Jack
son streets. Their sole object in life seems
to be to be burned to death. but they gen
orally manage 10 lay big white egg as large
as their whole body, just before expiring.

AN SENATOR.

With no disposition to interfere
in the choice of a Senotor by the
Democrats of West Virginia and
their Labor sympathizcrs, we are
still constrained to remark that Mr..
Kenna has made an admirable SEN
ator and that it must be a better
new man than appears to be in sight
in that State who can fill his place.
Experience counts for a great deal
in Congress. Mr.. Kenna is a hun
dred per cent. better fitted than he
was six years ago to be useful to his
State and his party in the Senate.
He has so near a unanimous vote
that he appears at this distance to
merit re-elcction.-N. y. World.
