r.i
A SATURDAY NIGHT BATHING SCENE.
amaSJSMM
It is not exactly right to laugh at our
fellows' misfortunes, and yet, like the
wag who saw another squirming under
J tne pangs of a jumping toothache, the
thing wis so ludicrously comical that we
had to laugn or Dust. a party oi jony
chaps, in order to cool off after the
sweltering heat of Saturday afternoon,
hied to tho Monongahela River, just
above the Smithficld street bridge, for
an old-fashioned bath and.switn.. They
went divested of all superfluous gear,
and at once plunged into the inviting
waters. The pioneer of the party yellea
out, " My God, Frank but the bottom
is muddy and sticky !" But in thev
went, wading out as far as the depth
rwouli permit, one, unfortunate wight
.who was as hairy as Esau, stooping down
and grasping haudfulls of the bottom
'deposits and tubbing it over his body
Tho discovery was soon made that
.ibe material was coal tar, the refuse
of the gasworks, that had been dumped
thera to bo got nd of. The whole party
were black as Africans in certain spots,
and their feet were thoroughly encased
in the adhesive material- Bathing was
eooo brought to an end, and as their
bodies were so coated as to preclude
Mhe possibility of donning their gar
xnents, they took up their line oLmarch
' for the Merchants' Hotel, with noteren
the dignity of a Georgia summer costume
a shirt collar and a pair of spurs.
Fortunately at that hour there were no
' peeping Johns" or prying members
, of the Sorosis, to impede their sorrowful
pace, and with their crumpled linen and
outside duds" in baud, they made
rapid time."
Arrived at the Merchants' " a tub
of water was speedily provided in the
saloon, and, with a firkin of lard and
box of soap, the scrubbing process
. commenced. The tarry substance wan
tenacious; and as the victims greased
and scrubbed, washed and swore, the
seeoe, as witnessed by an outsider, was
,om to make even a dog split his sides
with laughter, and would hive furnished
to a Hogarth or Cruik shank material
' for one of the most ridiculous sketches
that ever employed their graphic and
ready pencils. The next morning the
whole party were as me-ancholly as if
they had just witnessed the destruction
of a still-boose sore from rubbing, and
whether at table to enjoy the ordinary
to, reap in the reading room, striving
repast, or the benefit ol the cooling
breeze, visions of the past night would
rise up before them, and they emphaU
ically declared that the odor of tar was
in', everything around them.
"We deal not now with the indus
trial or economic view of the question,
but'with the far broader and grandei
one of its high political aspects. Lei
us not by any means binder or prohibit
the voluntary coining to this count r
of all men who choose to add their la
bor, their energies and their industry
in aid of our own, No one ever com
plained of the negro who cauio here ol
r his own free will. From his so coniinp
arose neither wrong nor danger to free
dom or the perpetuity of free institu
tions; but the negro, brought here as a
commercial speculation, wrought ibi
so great difficulties from which th
country has so suffered "
The above is from the masterbraii.
itt Ben Butler. Does the Oregoniai
endorse the doctrine ? and if it 3oe
what will it say about the right of tin
Chinamen to become citizens ? Will it
. not admit that if those people com
here for the purposes named by iButlo
in the above extract, they ought to be
made citizens for the purpose of pro
tection to both person' and property,
and if so will it still contend for the
political heresy, that by virtue of their
becoming citizens the ballot ought to
pass into their -hands? Side by aide
standi Bntfer and Morton. The former
sayst "Let us not hinder by any
means the voluntary coming to this
country of all men who choose to iden
tify themselves with us." The latter
t says: "Universal citizenship and
the Oregonian says, "that all citizens
should have the ballot," and Williams
" says, "put the ballot in the hands of
theso ignorant hordes, and our party,
yea our country is gone. What bar-
xnony 1 Gentlemen, as you have pro
grossed so rapidly, would itvnot be wise
to stop and consult?

XXAHEI27G A FOBTTXJIE.
Samuel McFadden was a watchman
in a bank. He was poor, but honest,
and his life was without reproach. The
trouble with him was; that he felt that
frt ,was ; not; appreciated. His salary
was only $4 a week, and when ho asked
: to have It raised, the President, kthe
- Cashier, and the Board of Directors
jj'aredat him through ; their spectacles
and frowned on him told him to go out
and stop his insolenoe, when he knew
business was dull and the bank could
not meet its expenses now,, let alone
lavish one dollar a week more upon
such a miserable worm as Sam uel
McFadden. And then Saml. McFad-
den felt depressed and sad, and the
haughty scorn of the President and
Cashier cut him to the soul. He
would often go into the side yard and
bow his venerable twenty-four inch head
and weep gallons and gallons of tears
over his insignificance, and pray that
no migt oe maac worthy ot the Uashier
and the President's polite attention.
One night a happy thought struck
him; a gleam of light burst upon his
soul, and gaziog down the dim vista
of years with his eyes all blind with
joyous tears, he saw himself riah hon
ored, and respected. So Saml. McFad
den fooled around and got a Jimmy,
a monkey wrnch, a cross-cut saw, a cold
chisel, a drill, and about a half a ton of
gun powder and nitro-glycerioe, and all
those things. Then in the dead of night
he went to the fire proof safe, and, after
working at it for a while,1 burst the door
and brick into an immortal smash with
such perfect success that there was not
enough of that safe left to make a caret
tack. Mr, McFadden then proceeded
to load up with coupons, greenbacks,
currency and specie, and to nail all the
odd change that was lying anywhere, so
that he pranced out of the bank with
over one million dollars on him. He
then retired to an uuassuming residence
out of town, sent word to tho detectives
where he was.
A detective called on him next day
with a soothing note from the Cashier.
McFdden treated it with lofty scorn.
Detectives called on him every day with
humble notes from .the Prsidcnt, Cash
ier and Board of Directors. At last
the bank officers got up a magnificent
private supper, tohich Mr. Mcradden
was invited. He came, and, as the bank
officers bowed down in the dust before
him, he pondered Over the bitter past,
and his soul was filled with wild
exultation. !
Before he drove away in his carriage
that nigth it was all fixed that Mr.
McFadden was to keep half a million
of that money and to be unmolested if
he returned the other half. He fulfilled
his contract like an honest man. but re
fused, with haughty disdain, the offer
of the Cash er to marry his daughter
Mac is now honored and respected.
Fie moves in purple and fine linen and
other good clothes, and enjoys himsell
first rate. And often now he take?
his infant son on his knee and tells him
of his early life, and instils holy princi
pies into tho child's mind, and shows
him how, by industry and perseverance,
and frugality, and nitro-glycerioe, and
monkey wrenches, and cross cut saws,
and familiarity with the detective sys
tem, even the poor may rise to afHucncc
and respectapility. ;

premature decline of the vigor of manhood,

bitter fruits tasted long afterward; patients,
laboring under this complaint, will complain

Nocturnal Emissions. Pains iu the Back and
Head, Weakness of Memory and Sight, Dis-
charge from the Urethra on going to stool or

ably complain of Diines, Vertigo, and that
Siht and Hearing arc Weakened, and sleep
disturbed by dreams j melancholy, sighing,
