The following Dti.usiutf nml fcemingly
incroiliblc narratlw Is from a lute French
publication. It is neatly told, and will be
read with Interest:
Three brothers, nil humpbacked, and all
nccurutely nlil: In iippwunct1, lived at
Iletaneon. One of them ktllfd a nmu in a
chance melly, but, not beliur taken on tin
inomeut, the proutors oould only swear
that ono of the lliicc brothers bud done the
iled. Rather than put an Innocent man
to death, the judge let the guilty one os-
cipc, but, to avoid further Inconvenience
of the kind, lie banished all from the prov
ince. One settled In 1'uris, became rich
tnd married; the others, alter nearly starv
ing in England, returned and paid a visit
to their fortunate brother.
Tho master of the home was abroad
when they knocked, nud tho poor wife was
troubled more than a littte by the lslt.
"My husband Is very jealous," bM the
to them, while giving them something to
eat. "You must go to the lartnercst quar
ter of the town, and never come litre again;
but I'll make your brother look to your
wants." While ehe was speaking, she
heard tier husband's knock, and cried out,
follow mo If you vuluc your lives.
She ordered the servant not to open the
door until she should return, and then
conveyed tho brothers down stairs uud
locked them in the cellar. Her husband
scolded lor beiug kept out so long, but a
good dinner restored him to good humor,
and ut night be went out to pay a visit.
The wife then went down to the cellar,
und there found tLo two poor brothers
lend, nun lvlnf here, the other there. She
acnt lor n strong Auvergoat, brought hint
down stairs, showed hlin one of the corpses
which she had previously tukcu out ol the
cellar, nnd promised hiiu a Loulsd'or on
hla return, after having thrown it into tho
Seine. Ho made uo scruple about the
matter, but popped tho body into the sack,
took it to tho river. Returulog for bis ro
word, the wife deputed bis clulm, ns the
body jva3 still lying outside the cellar door.
Here the stupified man saw what be firmly
believed to bo the corpse bo bad thrown
from tho bridge, and resigning himself to
destiny he took the corpse the second
time. Oorolug buck, be was terrified uad
enroged by finding tbo twice-drowned
oorpje knocking at bin-own 4pnr.
JACKSONVILLE, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1SG0.
"Arc time your trick, muter?" said
he '-Ah, Monsieur Uhost, clever ns you
ore, I'll settle you the third trial."
So saying, he forced the poor husband
Into the sack, carried htm to the same spot
and affected the third discharge.
This time he rriurnrd In triumph, for
the wile, lenorant of her husband's fate.
and having no more corpcs to remove,
paid him twice what she had covenanted,
and gae him a good glass of wine in the
bargain.
"Your good health, midamo," raid he;
"you nrc belter than your promts?, but 1
earned It. I found the humpbacked rogue
or Ills ghMl knocklntr nt the door ofirr I
had thrown him In for the second time."
"Oh, wretch I" cried the poor woman,
"yoo have drowned my husband."
AVhile she was screaming and he stand
ing In nmiment, the gtns d'armes enter
ed, secured both and sent them to prlwn.
Xcxt day they were brought before the
magistrate of the quarter and examined.
The poor wife conotulcd nothing; the Au
vcrgnat was not called on for an explana
tion; and while both were nwaltlng sen
tence of death, the three brothers with full
life, but wltb very pale faces, were u.l.ercd
into the roem. Some fishermen stationed
war the bridge had saved, the three. The
unmarried men had been only dead drunk
in the cellar, and tho submersion, and the
C0Dqatnt pulling ami hauling and tject
mnt of wine and water, had recovered
them from their drunken lethargy before
the natural time. On their first appear
aocc before the magistrate they could give
no explanation of their visit to the river,
nnd the husband had no Idea of the cause
obli being seised on; but his wife's ex
planation made all clear.
The King bearing of the strango advrn
turc, settlsol n pension on the unmarried
men, but they were not to dwell within
fifty miles of Paris, and the married man
was not jealous for a year and a day alter
his seizure and escape from the river.
Iscnr.uixtTV l'rnoxinr.i. There win
living on Martha's Vineyard an old man
who bad never been ofTthc Island, ami the
extent of bis knowledge was bounded by
the confines of bis borne, lie bad becu
told of a war between the North and the
South, but as be has never beard the din of
battle nor seen any soldiers, he considered
Is a hoax. lie Is utterly unable to read,
und Is Ignorant to the last degree. Ami-
oelltnt story it told ot bis first und only
day at school. He was quite a lad when
u lady came to the district where his fath
er resided, to teach school. He was sent,
und a tbt teacher was classifying the
school, be was called up lu turn and Inter
rogated as to bit former studies. Of
course be had to say tLut be lwd never
been ut school and knew none of bis sellers.
The school mistress gave him a sut on
one side until she hud Onlthtd Hie prelim
inary examination of the rest of the Khol
art. She then ualll him to htr, nod drew
ou the black board the Utter A, loll him
what It was und wished him to remember
bow it looked. He looked at it u moment
aod. then inquired, (b stuttered) :
"ll-b-o w do jou know Its A I"
The teacher replied that when she wssa
girl fclc Lad been to shool to an old genths
man, who told her so. The boy eyid the
A for a moment and then u.kedi
"II bow did he know I"
This was almoit a stunner, but the
teacher suddenly recollected that lie had
told her whin a boy be bad gone to school
to o lady, who bad taught bltn that It was
A.
The boy cjod the letter a little longer,
when be buist out with:
"II b-ow did be know bnt she lied ?"
The teacher could cot get over this ob
stacle, ond the poor boy was sent borne as
Incorrigible.
The way In which words nrc often divi
ded, when set to music, somelimes produce
a rather ludicrous effi-ct. At a methodist
camp meeting, once, some young ladies
were beard to sing: "Oh fur a man ! Oh
for n man I Oh for a tnan-sion lu the
skies I" Some very attentive young men
In the next tent immediately responded as
follows: 'Ob for a gal I Oh for a gal I
Ob for a gal 1 Ob lor a gal-Ion of old
rye 1" On another occasion a cuoir sang,
t0 tbe best of their ability;
We'll catch
tho ike! We'll catch the
flee! We'll
catch the flce-tlng hoars !"
S.so. The I)ndon Saturday Review
is teldora puzzled by slang phrases, but
confesses itself unable to undersold a sen
tence which it finds lu a recent American
puper: "Everything being lovely, the
goose was greatly elevated." Tbo aston
ished critic says: "What or Whose goose
was elevated, why it should bo elevated,
what the process ol elevating a goose con
sists in, and the councctloa between tbo el
evation of the goose ond the general loveli
ness of tbiog, ore all points on which we
can throw no Hgbt.

iww Hngluml dinner lu this city, soys lU
(J.goiiuii, Dr Hillows made some slutn
ineuts which uru particularly worthy of
note. He said;
'No less than thirteen millions of urmey

who flight tins! battles lu the late strug
gle. He would stato a ciruumstanon lhat
would scarcely be believed unless It cuu.e
from uuthonly, that no K( than iilntty
per cent, of the army who fought through
out the war were purely American. Ie
did not think bis friend, the I'rcsiilunt of
I lie St. Patrick Society, would be obliged

ertheless, the truth, uud if bis worthy friend
wus chagrined Mlh this statement, he
would say to hlui, It Is so; but let the
London lima put lhat fad in its pipe und
smoke It. More than thut, more than nine
ty per cent, tl the claims of wounded sold
iers and soldiers widows und orphans came
from those of foreign birth. Ho did not
say this to reflect upon the gallantry ami
loyalty and bravery of the Irish ami Ger

fought for the Union and the country
they had adopted. He merely did It at
this time ut the close of Ihe great events

On Chousing a Wife.
If you, my friend, would havo n wife,
To cheer the gloomy hours of life,
And give you constant plen'tire;
First look for one that's young and fair,
With countenance devoid cTcuo
And rnollsh affectation,
Mark how her lelsuro hours she spends,
And If wlllt wl'cntnl tlrtuousftlciidt,
In cheerful cotircsntloii;
If at ilnt) times the lnlruellve pigs,
In search or truth, her thoughts engage,
She merits approbation.
