The villiage of Kalama is at present
as dull as it possibly can be. Not a
eign of enterprise or vitality is to be

the good times are coming, however,
cone can predict, and as they seem far
in the perspective these who are able
to escape without sacrificing business
are doing so.

Kiss mj Wife or t'lghi."
There are a few married men who
are averse to seeing their wives kissed;
but a correspondeut-relates tbe partic
ulars of a case io which a newly-made
Benedict felt himself insulted because
bia wife was not kissed. The bride
groom in question was a stalwart
young rustic, who was known. as a
formidable operator in a free figbt.
His bride was a blooming aod beauti
ful country girl, only sixteen years of
age, and the twain were at a party
where a number of young folks of botn
sexes were enjoying themselves io the
good old-fashioned style. Every girl
in the room was called out and kissed,
except R., tbe beautiful your.g bride
aforesaid ; and although there was
not a youngster who was not dying to
taste brr lips, but were restrained by
the presence of her herculean husband,
who stood regarding tbe party with a
sullen dissatisfaction. They mistook
ibe cause, for suddenly he expressed
himself.
Rolling up his sleeves be stepped
into tbe middle of tbe room, aod in a
tone of yoicA that secured Barked at
tention, laid :
" Gentlemen, I have been noticing
how these things have been working
here for some time, aod 1 ain't satis
fied. I don't want to raise a fuss,
but "
" Wbat is the matter, John ?" in
quired half a dozen voices. " Have
we done anything to hurt your feel
ings?" "Yes, you have; all of you have
hurt my feelings, and I have got just
this io "say about it. Here's every girl
in the room hag been kissed ngb a
flora times apiece, and there's my
wi, wbo I consider as likely as any
of 'em, bas not had a single one to
night, and I just tell yon now, if she
don't get as many kisses as any girl in
the room the resl of Ibe night, the
man that slights her has got me to
fight that's all. Now, go ahead with
your playa."
Concerning a Dictionary.
Who that ever read it, has forgotten
tbe irresistibly funny description of the
career or a dictionary, which llrk
Twain put into the mouth of one
Coon, "a nice, bald-headed man at
he hotel in Augel's Cnmp," in tbe Bin
Tree region of Calaveras county, Cali
fornia. It was to a request lor the
loan of a book to enliven a rainy day,
that Coon replied :
" Well, I've got A migbty responsi
ble old Webster Unabridged, what
there is left of it, but they started her
sloshing around and sloshing aruuod
the camp before I ever got a chance to
read ber my9elf; and next she went
to Murphy's, and from there she went
to Jacknss Gulch, and now she's guuc
to Sin Andreas and I don't expect I'll
ever see that book again. But what
makes me mad is, that for all they're
so bandy about keeping ber sashaying
-around from shanty to shanty, and
from camp to camp, none of 'em's
ever got a good word for her. Now,
Coddington had her a week, and she
was too many for bim he couldn't
spell the words; he tackled some of
them regular busters, tow'rd the. mid
dle, you know, and they tbrowed him.
Next Dyer, be tried her a jolt, but be
couldn't pronounce 'em Dyer can
bunt quail and play seven up as well
as any man, understand, but he can't
pronounce worth a cent ; he used to
worry along well enough, though, till
he'd finish one of them rattlers with a
clatter of syllables as long as a string
of eluice-boxes, aod then he'd lose bis
grip and throw op bis band. And so,
finally, Dick ofoker Harnessed her, rip
there at his cabin, and sweated over
her, and rastled with her for as much
as three weeks, ni&bt and day, till be
got as far as K, and then passed ber
over to 'Lige Pickerell, and said she
was the all-firedest dryest readiDg that
ever be struck.
CcriD TfSTKD BY MaTHBHATICS. An
amusing instance of unconsciously
splitting a difference is recorded in the
"Memoirs of Madame d Linny." a
French writer of the last century :
A certain literary gentleman of ber
acquaintance paid her marked atten-.
tion for a considerable time. It was
bis babit to call for her at a friends
house where she usually passed the
day, to offer his arm, and to see ber
home. After an interval, however, at
about the time when a declaraiion
might have been expected, the atten
tion of the man of letters relaxed
soinewbat. He still manured a re
gard for ber.but so intense a regard as
be bad shown at first.
It had been bis wont, in passing
thr.mgb a large squire on his way to
the lady's house, to take ber round
the two sides of the square. As hit
fervor abated he still escorted her
home be could not at once give up
the practice but be made short work
of it. Ius'ead of going along the two
Ides of the square, he "split the dif
f reoce " and crossed it diagonally.
"Then" the wit'y lady rerairks, ' I
concluded that his regard lor toe bad
at least diminished by the difference
between the diagonal aod Ibe two
sides of a squire."
Tns End or Qcantrkll The Kan

side in Jack ion county, in that State.
Their statement is that be was mortal
ly wounded in a fiht with Federal
troops in 1864, and taken under an as
sumed name to a hospital in Louisville
where he died. Disguised as civilians,
those faithful followers attended on
him in the hospital and to tbe grave.
Ah Ungrateful Ouphab. In a late
lecture Mrs. Stmton, among otber
anecdotes of quiet humor, related a
story of bow the ladies of a church
once picked up " a poor orphan boy,"
and educated him for the ministry.
Tbey paid his tuition, and be gave
great promise ; and when he graduated
tbey bought htm 'some nice clothes
and were all on tbe tip-toe of expect'
-'-:rn to hear the first sermon. Ion.

t. raul : " Lei il- women keep bi

During tbe May Anniversaries in
New fork, the following dialogue was
overheard between two newsnoys : '
say, Jim, what's tbe meaning of so
many ministers being here all togetb
er?" " Why," answered Jim, scorn
fully, " they always meets once a year
to exchange sermons with each other.
" A young lady," in a roral " per
sonal," inform
" a certain young
time be desires to
man that tbe next
gaze npon ber for fort v-five mortal
minute without winking bis eyes she
will consider herself highly favored if
he will close his mouth, and not sit
there like a young robin awaiting tbe
parent bird."
A married man was recent!"- urged
by an insurance agent to take ont a
policy for the benefit of his wife to the
amount of twelve or fifteen thousand
dollars, and a loog discussion ensued,
which was ended by tbe husband, who
said: "No, a widow with more than
ten thousand dollars wonld be a dan
gerous legacy to leave to posterity."

Siko Siso, N. Y., August 17. Quarter
past twelve to-day, the tug boat Dean
Richmond, having a canal boat in tow,
going north, was observed approaching the
dock with considerable rapidity. The
guard warned the pilot to keep off. The
warning was apparently heeded, but the
steamer glidod close to tbe pier, and imme
diately twelve convicts loaped npon the
canal boat and ran over to the tug and into
the engineer's room. The engineer was
driven out and one of the convicts went
into the pilot house and took the wheel and
beaded the tng for the west shore. An
alarm was given as quickly as possible and
two sailing vessels one from Sparta and
one from here, full of armed men starred in
pursuit. Oue of these vessels overhauled
tho tug near' Rockland, when the convicts
took a small boat and escaped to tbe moun
tains. It is stated that the convicts are
now in the woods near Rockland and will
be recaptured, as they are surrouuded.

President of the Lun (?) Mutual Insurance
Co., announcing the burning of tho steam
ship Henry Chauucey near T.ody Island on

and tho whole story a canard.
New York, August 18. Tbo members of
the Citizens' Association, who recently
asked the Mayor for information as to the
city accounts, stated that unless he ac
quitted himself of the charges against bim
he should withdraw from his position.
They have each received a pointed reply
from the Mayor, who says he returns the
Association's communication sent him, be
cause it is one that no gentleman could ro
ceivo or should have signed, because it is
incorrect and untrue in many particulars,
and because it is general and insulting in
its tone.
New York, Aug. IS. Pacific Mail
stoek sold down on a canard in reference to

Horace Greeley favors tbe one term princi
ple ; believes another Republican candidate
for President can be selected who will win
more support than Grant, aud he advocates
such selection ; but should Grant he nom
inated, be thinks his election infinitely
preferable to that of any Democrat. Uo
views Democratic triumph as one of the
gravest national calamities, and this is bis
reason for wishing the selection of a Repub
lican candidate for President who will be
more certain of success than Grant.

meeting hoisted the Stars and Stripes over
the house, and was waited upon by a num
ber of tbe unterrified who demanded that

some thirty-five small flags adorned the
house.

The Democracy have completely packed
Union Hall to listen to Governor Haight

barn's on those subjects.

ment of the pat' nt, and obtained judgment
against tbe second iorentor, for amount
claimed and injunction. Tbe patentee then
sued the third party for damages for using
the invention which he had bought of tbe
second party. : The Court held that he
could not recover, as be bad already ob
tained judgment for damages for this in
fringcniont against the second party, who
bad bought in good f.iilh, before the fu t
commenced,, really holds now under the
original inventor, by virtue of such judg
ment. The decision is said to he a novel
one, and affects many cases.

or thr exceptions there is no insurance.
The entire loss outside of insurance is not

Oakland, Or., August 18. W. T.
Clarke, contractor for the removal of ob
structions in the Umpqua river, has adver
tised for 25 men, tdacksmiths, strikers and
bolsters, to work, to commence Sept. 1st.
A parallel for the f.ite of Vallsndiif
bsm is found in one of BoccnciV
stories of a girl and her lover. "Tbey
were in a earden together ; tbe young
man raised a flower to bis lips and
slightly bit one of the leaves. He fell,
in an instant be whs dtad. She who
was accti Jed of poisoning the man she
lov-d best ori earth besought herj'idges
to bo iillowd to revisit the fatal pr.
den promising that sbe would show
thrm bow the thing was done. They
crsnied tier prajer. ' It w thus,'
she said, plucking a flower. She pat
it to her lips , her tpetu just irepst d a
leaf ; io an instant she was dead ." .So
VallHndiehara attempting to demon
strate bow a man bad been killed sue
reeded only in inflicting death upon
himself.
