DAVY CROCKETT'S TRICK.
A Backwoods Campaign
n 1S2? the famous David
nockett was elpctftj to congress.
in ibis canvas he played the
famous 'coon-skin trick, which ho
relates as follews:
Vcll. I sUirted oil' on the
Cross Roads, dressed in my liunt
ug blurt, and my rifle on mr
shoulder. Jfatiy of our constitu
ents had assembled there to get a
taste of the quality of the candi
dates at orating. Job. Snelling, a
gander-shanked Yankee, who had
been caught .somewhere about
Plymouth bay, had been shipped
to the vresl with a cargo of cod
fish and rum, erected a large
shanty and set up shop lor the oc
casion. A large posse of the
voters assembled before 1 arrived.
and my opponent hud already
made considerable headway with
hts speechifying and his treating,
when they spied me about a rifle
shot from the camp, sauntering
aiong as 11 i was not a party in
the business. 'There comes Crock
ett cned one. 'Let us hear the
colonel,1 cried another, and so J
mounted the stump that had been
used for the occasion, and began
to bushwhack in the most approved
style. 1 hud not been up long
before there was such an uproar
in the crowd that I could not hear
my own voice, and some of my
constituents let me know that
they could not listen to me on
such a dry subject as the welfare
of the nation until they had some
thing to drink, and that I must
treat 'em. Accordingly I jumped
down from the rostrum and led
the way to the shanties, followed
by my constituents, shouting
Huzzah for Crockett' and 'Crock
ett forever.' When we entered
the shanty, Job was busy dealing
out his rum in a style that showed
ih&t Ue as making a good day's
"worV ot it, and I called for a tjuart
of 'fee beit, but the crooked crit
tur returned no other answer than
bypoiutingto a board over the
bar, oa which he had chalked in
large letters 'Pay to-day and trust
to-morrow.' Now that idea
brought mo all up standing; it was
a sort of cornering in which there
was no back out, for ready money
in the west in those times was the
shyest things in all natur', and it
was most particularly shy with me
on that occasion. The voters
seeing my predicament, fell olf to
the other side and I was left de
serted and alone, as the govern
ment will be when he no longer
has any offices to bestow. I saw,
plain as day, that the tide of popu
lar opinion was against me, and
that unless I got some rum speed
ily I should lose my election as
sure as there are snakes in Vir
ginia and it must be done soon
or even burned brandy would not
save me. So I walked away from
the shanty, but in another sort
from the way I entered it, for on
this occasion I had no train after
me and not a voice shouted
Huzza for Crockett.' Popularity
sometimes depends on a very
small matter; indeed, in this par
ticular it was worth a quart of
2cw England rum and no more.
"Well knowing that a crisis was
at hand, I struck into the woods
willi ray rifle on my shoulder, my
best friend in the time of need,
and, as good fortune would have
it, I had not been out more than a
quarter of an hour before I treed
a fat 'coon, and in the pulling of a
trigger he lay dead at the root of
ft. tree. I soon whipped his hairy
jacket off his back, and again bent
xaf way toward the shanty; and
walked up to the bar, but not
alone, for this time I had half a
dozen of my constituents at my
hels. I threw down the 'coonskin
upon the counter and called for a
qaart of rum, and Job, though
basr tn dealing out rum, forgot to
point to his chalked rules and
regulations, lor he knew that a
'soon was as good legal tender for
a qrt in the west as aNew York
shilling any day in the year. aT
OMdtuents now flocked about me
ad cried Huzza for Crockett!'
Crcktt forever!' and finding the
tide had taken a turn, I told them
several yarns to get them in a
good humor, and having soon dis
patched the value of the 'coon, I
went out and mounted the stump
without opposition, and a clear
majority of th- voters followed me
to see what 1 had to offer for the
good of the nation. Before I was
half through one of 1113' eou&titu
ents moved that they would hoar
the balance of my speech after
they had washed down the first
part with some more of Job Snel
ling's extract of coi n&talk and mo
lasses; and the question being put
up, it was carried unanimouiv.
It wasn't considered necessary to
tell the yeas and nays, so we ad
journed to the shanty, and on the
way I began to reckon that the
fate of the nation prettv much de
pended on me .shooting Another
'coon. "While staudingat the bar,
feeling sort of bashful, while Job's
rules and regulations stared me in
the face, 1 cast down my eyes and
discovered one end of the 'coon
skin sticking between the logs
that supported the bar. Job had
slung it there in the huiry of busi
ness. 1 gave it a .101 1 of quick
jerk, and it followed my hand as
natural as if I had been the right
ful owner. I slapped it on the
counter, and Job, little dreaming
that he was barking up the wrong
tree, shoved along another bottle,
which my constituents quickly
disposed of with great good hu-,
mor, for some of them saw the I
trick, and then we withdrew to '
the rostrum to discuss the affairs
of the nation. I don't know how '
it was, but the voters soon became;
dry again, and nothing would do
but we must adjourn to the shanty
and, as luck would have it, the
'coon skin was still sticking be
tween the logs, as if Job had flung
it theie on purpose to tempt me.
I was not slow in raising it to the
counter; the rum followed, of
course, and I wish 1 may be shot .
if T didn't, before the day was J
over, get ten quarts for the same
identical skin, and from a fellow,
too, who in those parts was con
sidered as- sharp as a hteel trap
and as bright as a pewter button.
"This joke secured me my elec-1
tion, for it soon circulated like
smoke among my constituents,
and they allowed with one accord
that the man who could get
tl
t,l-,
whip hand of Job Snelling in fair)
-r
trade could outwit Old Aick him-
self, and was the real giit for them i
in congress. Alter the election J
was over I sent Snelling the price j
of the rum, but took good care to '
keep the fact from the knowledge'
of my constituents. Job refused
the money, and sent me word th
it did him good to be taken in or '
ca sionally, as it served to biighteu
his ideas, but I afterwards learned j
that when he found out the trick
that had been played upon him he
put all the rum T had ordered in J
his bill against my opponent, who, ;
beinnr nlated with thf snoonltoQ li I
O J- w..w. ..w
had made on the affairs of the na
tion, could not descend to exam
ine into the particulars of a bi.l
of the vendor of rum in a small
way."
The Finnish newspapers record
a striking instance of the extent
to which the land on the shores of
the Gulf ol Bothinia is being grad
ually upheaved. It appears that
on June 25, 1755, a surveyor made
a mark in the smooth rock at an
elevation of tso inches above the
lovel of the sea. On being lately
measured, the present height was
found, after the lapse of 128 years,
to be six feet five inches.
"How many horse-power has
this engine?" asked a stranger of
a colored man who was inspecting
the new engine that ruus the
Sifiinffs press. The colored man
to whom the question was ad
dressed fcratched his head under
his hat and replied: "1 dunno,
boss, how many boss power hit'
got, but I heered hit tuck six
mules and a truck to fotch hit
from de depot." Tccas Sifting.

A beautiful young lady tripped
into Dr. Hatchett's drug store a
few days ago, and told young Mr.
Speight, who presides rhere, that
she wished some eator oil, and
asked him if he could mix it up so
as to disguise the taste of it.
"Oh, yes,' sajs Speight. Pres
ently Speight suid; "Will you
have a jrlas- of soda water, .Miss
"Oh, yes,'" says she. After
drinking the soda water the young
lady waiied a while, and' then
asked Speight if the castor oil was
ready.
"Oh!" sa Speight, "you have
already taken the castor oil in the
soda water."
"Great heavens!" said the
voung ladv. "1 wanted the oil for
my mother." Ft.
