DOG LOVE.

Talkin' about love an all
This high-fown affection,
Why, man alive, you can't call
It love at all, in connection
With that OF dog.
No use argyin' one way or t'other,
This question settled in my estimation;
Teller for gal, and child for mother,
Nay be called love, but it amt in relation
With that of dog.
Jest read the papers-that's all to it
Breaches of promise an SIGH like actions;
Man SEE he II do, and then won't do IT.
Life is chuck full Of SIGH Transactions;
'Taint so with dog.
When dog loves yer, he loves yer
Through the thick and thin in the sameq9eef
fashion;
'Tain't nothin' like them turtle doves yer
Read about with their silly passion,
This love of dog.
Take old Rove over there sleepin'
Side o. the cook stove, the darn old sinner
I'D bet a bill that pnTp's = keepie
One eye on me, and be sure winner;
know that dog.
I've tried women, also bosses,
An ain got nothin' TO say agin either;
But for downright lovin' when hard luck crosses
Yer pathway, tell yer neither
Is shucks to dog

The many friends of that famous turf
man, broker and diner-out, Leonard ",
Jerome, will learn with regret that he il

uncle, Judge Jerome of Rochester. win
his brother Lawrence he afterTaN
started the Rochester Native American

Fillmore made him consul to Trieste Inc
election of Franklin Pierce involved dig
Isretirement. He entered Wall street il
EaS54, and his first venture wa
$4,000 in Cleveland and Toledo stock,
which proved a loss. His Sec
ond venture was $500 in calls, out Of
which he realized $4,000. Soon after b
became partner of William r. Travis.
The training of thoroughbred stock vas
never undertaken on large scale IN lbs
Northern states until the establishment
of Jerome park. Leonard W. Jerom'
has done more to make the turf popular
in this country than any other mau. he

Clergymen's Sons.


There is an old SANDER, now happily nearly
extinct, to the effect that ministers sons are, as
a rule, more lavish sewers of wild oats than the
sons of laymen. The subject Of the clergymsn's
son in journalism has never yet been regarded
as az issue, and yet the profession with which
some of the newspaper offices Of Boston are
sprinkled with the sons of ministers might well
lead to a discussion of the topic. In the ONCE
of one Of the Boston daiiies, recently, group
of six attaches of the staff were in con-
versation when it became known that
OF the six five were sons OF minis
tiers. Stin another member OF the stah,
himself a Clergyman, is the SON of a clergyman.
From this same office, within the last year or
two three members OF the staff have gone, one
by one. To swell the staff of another great Boston
daily, and all three are sons of clergymen. All
of these nine men are of good repute, and are all
rather proud that they are able to refute the
saying, once SO frequently heard, but now rap
idly falling into disEse.

There has been discovered in India a strange
plant which possesses astonishing magnetic
power. The hand which breaks a leaf from it
receives INN sdiately shock equal to that pro-
duced by an induction coil. At distance of six
meters a magnetic needle is affected by it and
quite deranged if brought near. The energy of
this Singular influence varies with the hour of
the day. Powerful about O'Clock in the after
noon it is absolutely annulled during the night.
At times of storm its intensity augments. Dur
ing rain the plant seems to succumb. and bends
its head during thunder shower; it remaIpa
thus without force or virtue, even If one should
shelter it with an umbrella. No shock is felt at
that time in breaking the leaves and the needle
is unaffected by it. One never by any chance
sees bird or insect alight the electric plant;
an instinct seems to warn them that they would
find there sudden death. It is also important to
remark that where it grows none OF the magnetic
metals are found; neither iron, nor cobalt, nQE
nickel, an undeniable proof that the elegtsec
force belongs exclusively to the plants s.
