The Tampa, Fla., Peninsular, says the Seminole Indians are about to leave Big Cipress and go to Lake Okechobie, where it is more healthy. A modest old lady in Lowell, Jfass., characterized her canine, when she ap plied for a license, as "a boy dog of the black spaniel variety." Taking the total vote cast at the recent election as a basis, (counting six inhab itants to every voter), the present popu lation of the State of Illinois is estimated at 2,686,314, which, is an increase of 974561 since 1860. The New York Sun's Washington special says: "Admiral Porter is refitting and furnishing his house here ready for occupancy next spring when be expects to come here as Secretary of the Navy under Kien.

Columbus, Kentucky, is a hard place. An old farmer who had been badly swin dled there, said of it: "If the angel Gabriel happpens to light at Columbus, there'll be bo resurrection, for they'll swindle him out of his trumpet 'before he can make a toot I" A young Albany girl, after receiving the attentions of a young man for several months, abruptly asked him when he in tended to marry her. The young man then said he wa3 not on the marry. She then broke a tea-pot, filled with boiling water, over his head. Too bad, to waste it tea-pot 1 Here is a family puzzle : In the fam ily of Stephen Herrick, of Middlesex, Vermont, there are three mothers, two grandmothers, one great grandmother, tnree daughters, two grana-daugnters, one great grand-daughter, two wives, one widow,' two husbands, two fathers, two Sons-in-law, and one grandfather, and only six in the family. Grant's Justice to Soldiers. " .e .Passionate, but Honest. The Cork - Reporter describes Mr. John Mitchell as "passionate, suspicious, and implacable by nature;" but it says "his faults are counterbalanced by one great virtue. He is one of the honestest men that ever lived. He hates a lie with a refreshing hatred, and is at the throat of him who utters it, be he friend or foe: lollowinsr We should judge from the rarasrraph which we clip from the Dalles Mountaineer, :i that its' editor, our old bachelor friend, Wm. M. Hand, was liv ing in clover. We are glad to know there is one place where editors are cared for. The editor says: We have re ceived a number of presents this week, and we feel we i are very fortunate for havinsr so many friends. Among the list were several bottles of champagne, two of . rjort, one box of apples, a large fine eared ham of venison and a large fruit ake.-" For all orwmcn ine aonors will please accept oar sincere thanks. We glean the following interesting in cident of the late war from Phelp's Life of Grant : When the steamers ran into Vicks burg after the capture -of that city by our forces, for the purpose of carrying the iurloughed soldiers hoiae, some of the Captains took advautage of the sol diers' eagerness to charge the most outra geous rates. One of these heartless money grabbers was brought to terms by Grant in the following manner : The steamer had its decks crowded with soldiers. Grant asked a man stand ing on the wheel-house and giving orders loudly : "Are you the Captain of this boat?" "Yes, General." "How many soldiers have you on board?" "About twelve hundred and fifty." "What have you charged for tare to Cairo?" 1 From ten to twenty-five dollars each, General." "Ten to twenty-fiva dollars each ! Is that all? Why that is too modorate ! It is a pity that you should have to take the boys for so small a sum. You had better wait awhile." ? Speaking to the officer on board, he walked away. Then the steam whistled, the bell rang, and the wheels began to move slowly, but for somo reason she was not cast off. The men could not under stand it until, in a few moments, the or der came for the guard to keen the steamer until the Captain paid back all over seven dollars taken for fare from each officer and all over five dollars from each soldier and the ordeT was obeyed. The men knew that they had been victimized, but felt helpless. When they learned what the General had done, they gave three cheers lor Grant with a will. urant said to oue of his staif: "Pll teach these steamboat men that the boys who have opened the river for them are not to be plundered of their hard earnings on their first trip home. If trade is to tollow that flag so soon, it shall be honest trade so far as I can con trol it." A Marriage Feast Singular Customs iu Aorniaucfy. A wedding dinner iu Normandy is a seriou.9 affair to undertake, and demands both time and patience on the part of a novice. As for the futbttits, they seem to enjoy it very highly. The company sat down to eat at noon, and when we left at noon the next day they had not yet left the table, but proposed staying another twenty-four hours. Although there was occasionally some sleepiness among the conviver, there was no lack of gayety. Roguish old uncles detailed all the old staple wedding jokes, more or less indecent, which were laughed at as heartily as if they had never been heard of before, and teasing old aunts and grand dames told or hinted all the old scandal that might hector or bring the blushes td the faces of any of the young fellows present. Incessantly the unfailing bottles pass ed round from hand to hand, thcglasses clicked together, and the health of every body was toasted over and over airain. During the festivities it is the duty of the groomsman to sit by the bride and see that she is" served with everj'thing on the table; also, he must watch, or at the moment when his eye3 are turned away, or when he has left her pjace for an instant, another will steal away the j bride, take her to another seat and as sume the honors of groomsman. This causes a great many stratagems and fur nishes from time to time a laughing scene. The company would often leave the table and walk in procession, two by two, around the streets. The drink was wine and that favorite of the Norman countrymen apple brandy. The latter is, undoubtedly, the most villainous liquor in the world ; forty rod whisky is nectar in comparison. The farmers distill their own brandy, and make it of a very high proof, from 7 to 10 per cent, higher than other bran dies. Again, it is used when quite new, and, in consequence, harsh. For any one whose stomach is not already well cau terized with drink, a single glass of brandy is enough to make him sick for a a week. How the people at the wed ding were nble to do so, I cannot under stand, but I know that for 24 hours they continued to drink at short intervals of this brandy, alternately with wine and cider, yet nobody was seriously intoxi cated, and I venture to say they contin ued the operation for 24 hours more, yet were able to go soberly enough to their homes. " Wedding festivities, especially when there is dancing, often lasts for three or four days of a continual carouse, during which nobody sleeps, unless it is to take a nap in their chairs, at the table, or, perhaps, lay down for a couple of hours. The happy pair usually quit the . com- fany at the end of" 24 hours or so, and eave them to feast and frolic until fa tigue compels them to go home. To Drive Off Rats. Take a bunch oi matcnes ana soaic tnem over mgnt in a teacupful of water with Indian meal to a stiff dough, adding a spoonful of sugar and a Ittle lard, and lay it about the premises where the rats and nothing else will get it. I have tried different kinds of exterminatorswith poor success until 1 tried this. ' Rats are now strangers about my premises, and make short stops when they call, and go away with a ter rible squeak, the stomach. and a terrible gripping in : A butcher let a sailor have a shoulder of mutton on trust; but finding, in a day or two after, that he had gone to a foreign land, said. -- -.- '!My word ! but if I had known he never intended paying, I: would have charged a penny a pound more for it 1" VARIOUS ITEMS. The man who was caught napping is supposed to have been a hatter. If you would look "spruce" in your age, don't "pine" in your youth. Laugh at no man for his pug nose; you never can tell what may turn up. Quilp suggests hair pins as the only preventive against hair tailing off. A chemist, even iu tha streets, ia known hy his lineaments. Heavy charge of the light brigade Gas bills. The opposite of the seeds of discontent caraway seeds. Was any barber ever applied to to shave tho beard of an oyster ? A popular work of art drawing one's Pay Good men to attend auctions men whose faces are forbidding. "You make my blood'boil!" as tho live lobster cried out in the saucepan. A burden which was thoughtlessly got must be patiently borne, s "La, me, they don't send the paper, but they send the writing in a fluid state." The question is raised whether the grief of a mullatto can be considered yel low pine. A bore the man who persists in talk ing about himself when you wish to talk about yourself. The newmoou reminds one of a giddy girl, because she is too young to show much reflection. j It may be a fair question whether a man can be said to be wedded to cel ibacy. True in one sense A writer may be said to be more free than a King, inas much as he can choose- his own subjects. The object some wives have in blowing up their husbands is doubtless to have them come down. The man who minds liis own business was in the city a few days ago, but left immediately, he felt so lonesome. Mr. Pollywog says there is no danger of being capsized if you only go to the hat store. Wheels, like men, are often tired, and very frequently from a kindred cause going round so much. 'The noblest sight on j earth is a man talking reason and his wife listening to him. . What is the difference between a hen and an idle musician? . One lays at pleas ure and the other plays at leisure. Slander not others because they have slandered J'ou, bite not; a reptile because you have felt his bite. !- j If a gentleman marries, tho lady must be won before theyi;are married after they are both one. 1 "Well, wife, I don't see how they can send a letter on them wires without tear ing on 'em all to bits." The lady who took a fancy,' concluded on second thought to return it, and did so. ; What is more natural that sentimental young ladies, when they get married, should cease to be pensive and get ex pensive. When no prognostics of rain can be observed, if we see a lot of young fellows turn into a tavern, we may; be certain there will be a few drops, even in the dryest weather. j . Humble cerson3 The husband who does his wife'sMmurning, the wife who blacks her husbands boots, and the man who thinks 'ou do him mueh honor. Gentle people Tho young lady who lets her mother do the ironing for fear of spoiling her hands, the miss who wears thin shoes on a rainy day, and the young gentleman who is ashamed to be seen walkiujr with his lather. .; A painfully religious old woman being asked her opinion of the organ in a church, the first time she had ever seen or heard one, replied : ! "It is a pretty box of whistles, but oh! it's an awful way to spend the Sabbath." A good story is told of two young ladies who were visiting some friends in the eastern part of Maine. One day a young gent took them out to ride. Of course they must make a display of. their rural knowledge, discussing volubly upon various objects as they rode along. ' Com ing in sight of a field in! which some grain was in the bunch and covered with hay caps,' one of them exclaimed. "Oh, what a tunny grave yard! to which the other responded : , "O, you goose, that s nothing but a flock of sheep !" ! Tobacco Dealers. Under the In ternal Revenue Act of July 20, 1868, it is provided that all taxes on tobacco and snuffs shall be 'paid by stamps attached to the paekages containing the same. The following is an extract from Sec. 28 : "After the first day of January, eighteen hundred and sixty-nine, all smoking, fine cut chewing tobacco or snuff shall be taken and deemed as manufactured after tho passage of this act, and shall not be sold or offered for sale unless put up in packages and stamped as prescribed by this act and any persons who shall sell or offer for sale, after the first day of January, 1869, any smoking, fine cut chewing tobacco or snuff not so put up in packages and stamped, shall on con viction be fined not less than five hun dred dollars , , and imprison ment not less than six months." Sec. 70 says, "The absence of the proper , stamp on any package of manufactured tobacco or snuff shall be notice to all per sons that the tax has not been paid there on and shall be prima facie evidence of the non-payment thereof, and such to bacco or snuff shall be forfeited to the United States." - - -A volumn of poems by George D.
