New Boot and Shoe Store, I California Street, Those of our readers acquainted on Mason street will remember that the root to Mr. Forceps’ saloon adjoins his house, anti is approached by two win dows. One of these windows is in Mr. Forceps’ bed-room. On this roof Mrs. Forceps has spread hesitating to matoes with a view to hasten their ripeness. Last Wednesday she put five more with their fellows, making thirty in all. The Forceps have a niece visiting them—a young lady named llall, of Thomaston. She has made the acquaintance of many of our young people, and on Wednesday night several of them got together to give her a serenade. Providing them selves with requisite instruments, the young men took up a position near this addition we speak of, and struck upon their instruments. Mrs. Forceps was first awakened by the music, and nudged her husband. He also awoke. The music was grand—not loud or coarse, but soft, low and harmonious. Mr. Forceps was very much pleased, and got up to the window to hear it. Then Mrs. Forceps got up also, and re tying her night-cap, stood beside For ceps. “They’re serenading Ellen,” said she. “I know it, ” said Forceps, “Who can they be,” she asked. “I don’t know, I am sun*, ” said he; “but 1 suppose I could find out if I could creep out on the roof and look over. “Why don’t you ? ” said she, her curi- osity increasing. “I’m afraid they might see me,” he said. “I don’t think they would,” she said ; “they wouldn’t be looking up on the roof, would they ?” Mr. Forceps thought a moment and then concluded no one could see him, as the moon had gone into a bank of clouds, and objects were quite dim. And then he softly opened the blind and cautiously crawled out on the shingles, encased in rod flannel underclothes and a night-cap of the same rich material, The music still continued, coming up through the night air in wave's of ecstatic harmony. Mr. Forceps sat down on the roof and laboriously worked his way to the eaves. Then lie lifted himself up to*, turn over and look down, and just then he stepped on something soft and yielding, felt his feet give, made a des perate clutch at the shingles, was too late, gave a piercing shriek, and shot off the roof and went revolving and howling in among the band, followed by the tomatoes, and madly cleaving the air with his red flanneled limbs, lie struck on his back on the bass viol, and with one leg tore the entrails from an accord eon, and with the other knocked all the keys from a silver mounted flute. The man who played the bass-viol was driven senseless into a pile of pea-brush, and the flute play er, with his mouth full of blood and splinters, jumped over the fence and fled. What became of the others, Mr. Forceps does not know, he being too busily engaged in getting on his feet and into the house, to make a critical examination of the field. It is pre sumed the bass-viol man died on the spot and was surreptitiously removed and buried by his companions, as there was no sign of him al»out the premises the next morning.— Danbury News. I —AND Jacksonville Stamm No. 11S I’. 0. R. M., HOW ENGLISH BEEF IS FATTENE!». ! the meals, chiefly that a man wants a wife. If this is all he needs, hired help can do it cheaper than a wife. If this all, when a young num calls to see a lady, send him into the pantry to taste the bread anti cake she made ; send him to inspect the needle-work and bed-making ; or put a broom into her hands and sent! him to witness its use. Such things are important, and the wise young man will quietly look after them. But what the true man most wants of a wife is her companion ship, sympathy, courage and love. The way of life has many dreary places in it, and man needs a companion to go with him. A man is sometimes over taken by misfortunes ; trialsand temp tations beset him, and he needs one to stand by and sympathize. He has some stern battles to fight with pover ty, with enemies, and with sin ; and he needs a woman that, while he puts bls arm around her and feels that he has something to fight for, will help him to fight; that will put her lips to his ear and whisper words of counsel, and her hand to his heart and impart new inspiration. All through life— through storm and through sunshine, conflict and victory, through adverse and through favoring winds, man PLAIN AND FANCY CANDIES, needs a woman’s love. The heart yearns for it. A sister’s or a mother’s ND EVERYTHING THAT CAN BE love will hardly supply the need. Yet found in a first-class variety store. many seek A Produce taken in exchange. Please give me for nothing further than The following, which we take from the San Francisco Post of the 9th ult, shows what a pompous ass Ben. Hol laday makes of himself. No man but a pompous ass would so act, for men who are really gentlemen have a pro per respect for the rights of others. No wonder such a vainglorious nin compoop failed in his financial opera tions, from a lack both of capacity and integrity. See the Post: It must be a pleasant thing to be a Railroad King, even if but a bankrupt one, and travel like a prince of the blood of the ancient regime, making every body clear the road. That is the way his roihd highness of Oregon travels, when lie leaves San Francisco to visit his own dominions. He does not go to the expense of putting on an extra stage, for there is a streak of economy in his high magnificence, but simply shoulders common passengers aside, knowing that they will have to crowd into the next day’s stage or walk, lie passed through Yreka on Friday night—he and his two servants occupying the whole stage, and would not permit another passenger to get aboard, not even a man who was try ing to get home to his sick wife, and who would have given anything for a [»assage. To be sure the law on this point is as [»lain as a pike-staff, and Ben Holladay, the stage owner, is but a common carrier, liable in heavy dam ages for refusing to carry any unobjec tionable passenger tendering his fare. But then Ben Holladay, the Railroad King, who owns people, who makes laws, is above the law. If there is any law, which to read it on the stat ute books, a common citizen would fear to violate, it is the law against delaying the mails of the United States, yet it is said that every time Ben Holladay visits his Kingdom of Oregon, the United States mails are tossed off the stage, in order that the monarch’s bed may be stowed in the [»lace usually occupied by the mail bags. The Englishman is proverbial in his quality and love for roast beef. No such “roasts” are found anywhere else in the world. The modus operandi of its best production is as follows : A pit is dug generally about six feet deep and ten feet square in which the ani mal that is to be fattened is lowered. It is then supplied with all the roots, hay, and meal it can digest, and fur nished with the needful quantity of wa ter, as well as an abundance of straw for litter. The droppings are trampled underfoot by the animal as he moves about the narrow cell, and gradually by their accumulation, rise to a level with the surfaceof the ground. When the surface is reached he is ready for the knife, and yields a rich and juicy flesh, besides many tons of the best manure packed into the pit Our great trouble with the American beef is, that the animal gets too much exercise. Even our stall fed animals are allowed to roam too much. But the worst feature of all is the fact that nearly all the beef found in the markets of our great cities is driven there on foot, and killed without rest or recu peration, and of course in a diseased state. The animals transported by rail are but little, if any better, as the mo tion of the cars even for a few hours is extremely weakening and debilitating on the animal heavy with fat Per fect quiet and good ventilation are es sential to good beef. When a bullock is token from its pasture and placed in a stall or pit, it continues to grow in bone and muscle, or red flesh, as to accumulate fat, and the fatty matter is so blended with the muscular as to ren der the latter tender, juicy, and highly flavored. In fattening, as a general thing, American cattle move to much hogs too little. The hogs need more and exercise while fattening thana bullock —or at least, the evil effect of driving is not so preceptible as in driving cat tle. Kentucky hogs are driven across the mountains into Virginia, and are said to give sweeter flesh and more highly flavored hams than corn-fed hogs fattened in Virginia T he redoubtable Hi came up on S quash S eed F atal to F owls .— James N. Bookstover, Ruthford Park, N. J., writes to the American Farmers Club. I feel it a duty to call the at. tent ion to a discovery made by mo that may not be generally known. The other day my little boy came and told me that “chicky had gone dead.” On going into the hen house I found a fine black Spanish cock lifeless upon the floor. At first I attributed its death to a weasel, or some animal of that character; but I could find no marks to warrant such a conclusion. A while afterward I found a dead pullet in the yard. This began to alarm me. I had heard of hen-cholera, and began to think some such disease had made its appearance on my premises. An autopsy revealed to me the cause of death, they having shortened their lives by a little indiscretion in the se lection of food. On opening their crops I found the contents to be corn and squash seeds. The seeds had cre ated a watery fluid, greatly discolored, that' could find no outlet. Farmers* wives should be careful to place such kitchen refuse beyond the reach of the fowls. Pumpkin seeds are also fatal. the Tuesday evening train. He leaped from the platform calling wildly for I Odell, but Odell wasn’t there. He rushed up to the Land Office with jaws considerably distended, and from there a runner was immediately dispatched to Springfield for John Kelly, without whom Odell could give no responsi ble advice. When the shades of night began to mantle the quiet city—appro priate time, a draw-curtain caucus was held in the Surveyor General’s Office, for the transaction of important busi ness, and for the purpose of ascertain ing the probable propriety and cost of securing the campaign services of Commissioner E.

Egad, how great men differ in opinions.— Eugene Jlaick- eye. NV iien three Irishmen dug a ditch for which they were to receive $4, the trouble was how to divide four among three and have it equal. One of them remained quiet and the other two at last deferred to his judgment, as he had bet'n to school and knew arithme tic, to make the division. He did it at once, saying : “It’s aisy enough ! Shure there’s two for you and two for me, too.” “Begorra,” said one of his I co-laborers, “what a great thing it is to have learning!” “And,” said the other, as he pocketed his single dollar, “to know arithmetic, too. It’s the like of us towe’d never divided them four dollars aqually.” i * r- - ■— T he F ranking P rivilege A gain .
