We re ally dou't know whether the story we are going to relate is true or otherwise, and it may be as well right here to state that we don't care a hooter. We got it seeondlmnded, but we propose to tell It as we got it. if it costs a second-hand law suit. That's the racket. Tlie story goes that a young and handsome female who lives on street, was the possessor ot a sweet, white, high-toned kitten. It "was the smartest, cunningest lightning-striker of a cat in the entire feline business. Some fraud of a young man. with a light mus tache had told the young lady that by dosing the cat with whisky its growth would stop there and then that it would always remain a. little, handsome, smart kitten, to the'enfl of its well, untlllt got old enough to wark up into sausage and Italian fiddle strings. The otfler morning there was no one at home, and the hand some young lady concluded to try the whisky experiment on kitty. We don't like to tell what followed, buta journal de vote! to the dissemination of knowledge should be fearless and even reckless in withholding nothing from its readers except facts therefore we rush along with the ower true tale of a kitten regardless of taste or expense : The j-oung and beaut i 4jhl damsel procured the whisky, corraled. the kitten, locked all the doors, and pro ceeded to dose the feline. It was a strug gle, as the pet didn't like to take whisky, being a blue ribboner; but the careful dose was eventually forced down kitty's throat, and the subject of coercion dropped on the floor, and the aforementioned yonng lady stepped back to see the fun. As the dose took effect Instatiter tlie "fun" wasn't delayed a moment. The cat looked as though it had seen its grandmother's ghost and was crazed at the sight for It sprang around that room like greased lightning, probably in search of a barroom, so fast that nothing but a white strcake ot fur could be seen for a few moments, when it gave a yell ard leaped on to the piano, tea ling the cover off and filling head first into the slop-bucket which, unfortunately, had not been taken from tlie room ; from thence it flew in its rage and terror upon tlie what-not, knocking the handsome vases, etc., on to the floor in an awful smash ; cat. card pictures, books, work boxes and clock all went madly crashing to the floor at once, when, with an ear splittlrg yowl, the cat.with tail erect, reached for the stand containing the flower pots, scattering them pell-mell in every direction; continuing its circus perform ance, the centre-table was knocked galley west, the mantle devasfed, the looking glass knocked endways and broken into a "tine business," the lace window curtains torn down, and things generally turned topsy-tnrvey ; and seemingly having lost all sense of propriety, aiid seeing nothing else to destroy, It gave one lofty bound, landing on the young lady's white neck, where it be ran making long furrows down her back, when tlie aforementioned young lady Began cavorting in such a style as probably never was equaled In the grand can-can, eventually reaching the door, where lady and kitten struck the sidewalk, .both ahead, amid the awfulest caterwaul ing' and maiden shrieks that ever greeted the air of a calm, staid, peaceful city. It was a tragic-comedy of the loudest kind. Tlie damsef arose with as much sudden ness as she came out, and pulled down her vest ; a white streak - in the air, and the kitten was gone. As we said, tlie young lady arose with great dignity, and repaired with no unnecessary delay to her room, to speak out her mind in regard to the young man with the light mustache nothing more. We don't propose to vouch for the truth of this tale ; une thing Is certain, the experiment was a success of the grandest kind. The pet kitten never returned it's the deadest cat anywhere.
