DisousTKii Citizens. The flood in
our city has brought to our especial no
tice many traits of huiinn ,churac!er,
.ind we are glad to note that those of
hospitality and good w ill were predomi
nant; yet there was one instanco where
the opposite cliuruoteristic wasconspicn-
ins. While one of our leading hotels
was taxed to the uttermost to supply the
large crowd, rendered homeless by the
Hood, with the necessities of life, one of
he neighbors tried to prevent parties
from gaining entrance by fencing up the
rear door. It was speedily removed,
however, by two of our citizens who had
the barrier kicked down before the party
who hud nailed it was out of hearing
listance.
A Pto Takbs a Ridk on a Raft. One
f the queerest incident that ever hap
pened came to the writer b ears lust

as it started to float down the river. It
went over the falls and the owner sup-
posed the pig was drowned. But lo.
and behold ! when lie went out in the
yard next day, there was Ins porker,
loakine: as smiling as could be, and
seemingly feeling nono the worse for
the b.mt rulu. Tins story seems increu-
ble, but it is nevertheless true.
