Ofllcial Proceedlnsa Immense Profit In Discovering Comet. Elder Toots having got most of his feet under the redliot stove, and Col. Cahoots having succeeded in knock ing down a hust of Plato and wreck ing $500 worth of relics, Brother Gardner arose and said : "What I hanker arter am to meet a plumh up an' down man. Dar' am pussons in dis club who wobble about like a loose wagon wheel. One day dey greet you wid a grin as soft as June, an' de nex' day (loan' know you as j'ou pass on de street. I doan' mean to hurt no man's feelin's, but I mean to be plumb. "If Whalebone Howkcr should come ober to to my house an' ax de loan of a dollar I wouldn't keep him on de hooks fur half an hour fur a de cision. I should at once reply to him : 'Whalebone, de man who uses money aimed by his wife at de wash-tub to buy lottery tickets can't get no dol lar outer "me!' When a man axes my religion I doan' beat aroun' de bush to find out if he has found a shortcut to llcaben, but I denounce myself as a Baptist an' take my chances by de ole road. "When you think yes or no doan' hesitato to say so. Doan' be leanin' one way one day an' some odder way on do nex'. Do man who knows wliar' to find you won't go away mad, eben if you decide agin him". Our Samuel Shin am one day gwine to be a statesman an' on de nex' he's gwine to open a saloon wid a gilded ceilin'. One day you will find him a Methodist an' de nex' you will see him devourin' a Universalist sermon. Meet him in de mawnin' an' he am a feroshus Republican ; coteh him in arternoon an' he am a good Dimo crat. "Be plumb up an' down. If you am sot on bein' good, stick to it. If you am sot on bein' bad doan' let do purleecebluffyouofl. Ifyoulikeaman tell him he kin hev de use of your snow-shovel all summer. If you can't hoe co'n wid him, ax him to buy out or sill out an' take some odder cow path. De wobbly man am a pusson to be shunned. Tryin to do bizness wid him am time wasted an labor frown away." AFTEIt COMETS. The Chairman of the Committeo on Astronomy submitted his quarter ly report, from which it was learned : . 1. The committee have come to the unanimous conclusion that the moon is inhabited, but have thus far failed to open up social or commer cial intercourse. 2. The sun moves, and don't you forget it! If the sun doesn't move, how does it get from east to west? Besides, why should the earth fool away its valuable time by movins around the sun ? 3. The next eclipse will be ar ranged to come off on the Fourth of July, Jin order to add zest and en thusiasm to the occasion. 4. The Rochester Observatory having offered $200 apiece for all the new comets discovered during the year 18S5, the committee has pur chased a $2 telescope and arranged three red chairs on the roof of Para dise Hall, and will put in some heavy squinting at the heavens as soon as the thermometer takes a climb. In case 500 comets are discovered, the committee will donate $7,000 towards building a new Paradise Hall. it didn't pass. Prof. Springfoot Bowers then of fered a resolution to reduce the in itiation fee from fifty to twenty-five cents, making the general hard times his excuse for so doing. "Brudder Bowers, does it cost any less to git into the Legislachur or Congriss dis y'ar dan it did last?" asked the President. "I reckon not, sab." "Den why should de Lime-Kiln Club begin a cut on prices?" Brother Bowers didn't know, and the resolution was dipped into hot water and laid on the window-sill to crystallize. THE LIBRARY. The Librarian reported that he had received during the last quarter 522 volumes, 520 of which were almanacs published by the poets St. Jacob and Hostetter. Ho had now over 18,000 almanacs on hand, and anybody wanting to know the date of tho month for fifty years back or aheTld could be insrantly accommodated. The library had been open this win ter five nights in a week, from 7 to 10 o'clock, and the average attend ance had been thirty-two. It grieved him through and through to be com- Selled to add that a majority of those ropping in spent most of the time in chewing ping tobacco and talking politics. He had no recommends to make in this direction, but desired to enter his solemn protest against re maining longer in charge of the room unless it was provided with a fire es cape. As matters no stood a fire on the stairs would compel him to jump from a third-story window. The moHor tmq nonvocoml nm onrl nnr, Kv t i j .1 i- i Buverai luemuers, ana uie l resiuenc linally dismissed the subject by say- ing: "I baa ten feet of rope at de house which I will bring down, an' in case of a fiah de librarien kin splice on his suspenders and drop de rest of de way down." SPIUNQ WHITEWASHING. "Waydown Bebee desired to indulge in a few remarks on the subject of gprtng work. He piggunigd Ibat bis ! fellow-members realized the fact that art had taken gigantic strides in the last ten years. In by-gone days the finest residences asked for nothing better on the ceiling than whitewash laid on in separate colors and picked in with the Roman shade of calci mine. In these days the humblest citizen demanded art by the sled load. Plain whitewash, even for an alley fence, had seen its day. Every member pursuing the trade must make himself an artist arid study colors and lights and shades. He must also have more pay, and Brother Bcbee moved that the Pres dent appoint a committee of three to canvas the matter and report. The President appointed Messrs. Bebee. Walpole and Blazes as such committee, and intimated that the ratr. for spring whitewashing should be advanced at least twenty-five per cent. THE close. The meeting was then called upon to sit still while Prof. Highslrung Smith recited an orjlion entitled, "A Storm at Sea." The sea appeared to be considerably agitated. So did the Professor, and when he was finally carricdTfrom the Hall in a limp con dition the meeting adjourned. Tho Cashier IVho Hail no Klcctlon. On a suburban theater train tho other night a little party were talk ing of pathetic scenes upon the stage and how they were variously affected bv them. ""For my nait," said a dapper young man, "I never yet saw any thing on the stage that could moisten my eye. 1 leave the crying to little bovs and women." "Oh, you do, do you?" replied a bluff old gentleman, an ollicer of one of tho roads; every time I hear a young man talk as you do 1 feel like telling a little incident that once came under my notice in New York City. A party of us sat in a box, 'Hazel Kirk' was the play. None of us had ever seen it. I shed a tear or two quietly and unobserved, but rough old Gen. McRae cried like a baby. He was President of a Georgia rail load then, and in New York on busi ness. He was a regular martinet in his profession, stern and unrelent ing. He was an old j bachelor, too, and so far as known never had tender feeling toward woman or kin. He had lived a life solitary and absolute ly unsentimental. We were all sur prised to see such emotion in such a man, but none of us said anything except young George . of Atlanta. He laughed at the old General's weakness. " 'Canyou witness such a scene as that with dry eyes?, inquired the General with all his old sternness of manner and speech. " 'Whv. of course I can. I could laugh at'it even as I laugh at you.' " 'See here, George ,'satd Gen. McRae, with great earnestness, 'you are cashier of a bank in Atlanta, in that bank my company has many thousands of dollars deposited. Immediately upon my return home every dollar of our deposits shall be withdrawn. You may be an honest man, but I do not feel safe with our money in an institution where one of the responsible oiliccrs is a person who talks as you talk to night.' "Upon his return to Atlanta the General did as he promised. And luckily, too, for in less than six months that bank was nearly ruined by a heavy embezzlement by its cashier. The ''Old aiastcrs." In several principal towns of Italy there are regular workshops for the forgery of the masters who formerly painted there. Thus, in Bologna, tho imitations are chiefly of the Caracci and their followers, as well as of Carlo Dolco and Sassoferrate ; at Venice, of Titian and Gcorgione. In Milan and Ferara, the fabrications after tho schools of Luini and Garo- falo are especially successful, as well as those of Marone's beautiful por traits. Old and ruined panels are chosen, and cither restored on the original design or, if that has been obliterated, they arc prepared and painted afresh. Sometimes the por tions that have suffered least are al lowed to remain, and new bits of varied composition are ingeniously dovetailed into the piece, which is then beplastcred with varnish, the better to puzzle too curious observers. In all these case3, the treatment of some famed master is so exactly un ited as often to baflle detection, even where suspicion has been roused by the contused appearance of tho work; and the dissimilarity of surface often escapes minute criticisms out of re spect to the warm channels visible behind. The forgeries thus executed are issued by a class of Italian deal ers, who, sometimes in the disguise of gentlemen, lend themselves to the imposition, and share its profits. What Parents Fear.

I havo a contempt for persons who destroy themselves. Live on, and looKevn in xneiace; watK up to it and you will find it less than you im- agined, and often you will not find it at all, for it will recede as you ad vance. When you are in a'melan chely fit, first suspect the body, ap-, peal to rhubarb and calomel", and send for the apothecary; a little bit , oi gnsnu suiting m me wrong place, an untimely consumption of custard, excessive gposeberries, often cover me mmu wun ciouus ana bring on the most distressing views of human life. I start up at 2 o'clock in tho morning after my first sleep, in an agony of terror," and feel all the weight of life upon my soul. It is im possible that 1 can bring up such a family of children; my sons and daughters will bo beggars; I shall live to see those whom I love ex posed to the scorn and contumely of the world ! So I argued, and lived dejected and with little hopo; but the uitliculty vanished as life wenton. My daughters married well ; I had two or three appointments, and be fore life was half over became a pros perous man. And so will you. Friends start up out of the earth; time brings a thousand chances in your favor. Nothing so absurd as to sit down and wring your hands be cause all the good which may hap pen to you in twenty years has not taken place at this precise moment. A friend that you have to buy won't be worth what you pay for li'im no matter how little that may be. But this is not true of St. Jacobs Oil. Each bottle of that great pain-cure is worth its weight in gold. MARKETS WYATT & THOMPSON. DEAI.EKS IN FRESH AND CURED (SEATS, CHOICE GltOCEItlES, PROVISIONS. Ooekrv ami Glassware. STAR MARKET.
