Tiie evangelists Moody and Sankcy purport to be serving the Ird in Great Britain, bnt as they

The census of France was taint Sunday, and the result shows a tpuktion,of 38,500,000. Taking

the census of a nation in one day is

quick work, but by using force enough it can be more accurately done than by th American method.

One New York deater imports

and sells 80,1)00 canary birds every Tear. They arc mostly obtained in

the Harts moan tains where they are raised by the peasantry. Their price is now $18 per dozen, but will soon be higher. - Judge Vinton, of the Tippecanoe circuit court, has decided that the rule ef tie iacuity of Perdue

University excluding members of the Greek fraternities from the University is within the limits of

their lawful discretion, consequently the court cannot interfere.

sponsible, its limit of time expired while he was still on the way. The conductor on the terminal read demanded regular fare, and put him off the train when be refused to pay. He f ued .the company whose agent had sold him the ticket, on the ground that the contract was made with that official for the entire journey, and the jury, on the direction c f the court, gava trim a verdict of $500.

A Chicago drummer recently 641 through a bridge at Des Moines

and broke his leg, while trying to

nu t with a calico dress hung on a

clothes-linf!. Even the masher has

his hour of sorrow.

A sa'-loK was hauled to Mar

tinsville, litst;week, which was 12

feet loop, tight feet throngh at the

base, and b feet through at the top.

It is said to contain 3,000 feet cf

lumber.

It was young Billy Perkins of

Louisvillf, who was shot at by negroes om; four times in a bar-room the other day, !and after they had

failed to jit him he turned to the

keeper a' id said: "Great Scots!

what poor shooting ! Give me a brandy smash !"

A fa .her rebuked his son, la9t

"Yes, buu I saw the foHr of it and

Unless

something extraordi-

nn before 1884 the

Democratic party will find itself!

without an issue. It has been compelled to acquiesce in all the Republican doctrines since-1860, except on the tariff, and even on that it is fist marching into the SepubIksB camp. John Kelly is still at the head

f the Tammany wing of the New York Democracy, and is likely to

stay there for some time to come in spite of the opposition of Sam Tilden and his organs, the Sun and Herald. - Mr. Kelly announces that Tammany is to be made the meet f irmidable organization it has ever been known to be in its history.

A widow of two months stand

ing in Sullivan county, New York,

took it into her head to marry

again. She found her man, and

when the couple appeared before

the domme to be made twain, bis reverence suggested that, as her

husband had been ' dead only two months it did not look well for ber to marry so soon. "Ab, domine,"

replied the widow, "you forget to

give rat credit lor the ten months

ray htuband lay sick." The worn

an was ahead, as usual, and tbe

couple were married then and there.

Goreer owned a St. Louis ba

kery, and one of his bakers, Ludwig, bad & re markably pretty wife.

Gorger offered to exchange posses

sions, and the idea was discussed

thoroughly and amicably by the three persons concerned. Tbe bargain was closed with the condition that Gorger should leave $10 in the till, lie then took the woman away en a wedding tour, leaving Ludwig as proprietor of the bakery; but at the end of a month he returned, saying that he did not like bis new wife after all, and would give her back for the bakery. However, Ludwig was satisfied with the trade and refused to undo it. The joint wife finds herself

Judging from the daily reports

of the Uurteau ease the trial of an

assassin for murdering the Presi

dent fti a rmtibhe numbering 50,

000,000 of souls, is one of the roost

amusing spectacles imaginable. "Mulberry Sellers," in the "Gilded Age" court seen?, never evoked more "taught er" from his audience than Guitean does from hist. The Guiteaa comedy indeed is more farcical than the "Gilded Age." In tbe latter the jadge of the court makes an effort at decorum and does not join in the laughter which "Col. Sellers'" violation of order occasions. J odge Cox does join in the laughter at Guiteau's antics.

1812, she and ber sister Abbie saw eonie British troops landing on the coast of Massachusetts from a man of war. The militia were all away bnt bad left their drums behind. She and ber sister Abbie got a snare dram and fife, got behind some big rocks, and sounded tbe long roll. The red coats retieatcd, and so two brave girls scared away tbe enemies of their country and saved their home from pillage. Abbie still lives at Scituate, Mass., and should have a pension. Greeneastle Banner: There are not enough radical temperance bod in the Republican party in Indiana to enable it to puss a prohibitory liquor law. Neither are there in th& Democratic party ; and there would not be in a Prohibition party, if one were organized. It follows, therefore, thai the only way of securing such legislation is by

keeping tbe question out of politics,

in order- that men of all parties may unite upon that single measure when it comes before them in the ahspe of a constitutional amendment. A tmvelet bought an excursion .tkkct .fVoin Washington to To-

Bw He Was Silence. Lafayette Sunday Leader. Many years ago, while Judge Pettit was canvassing this district for Congress, to which position he succeeded, and while hwas in the midst of an eloquent adTfress to a large assembly of voters, one of

that class of peculiar smart Aleck's, so often found at such places, having posted hioiself in front of the Speaker's stand, annoyed the speaker and audience exceedingly by shouts of applause, interspersed with exclamations of "Go it, old fellow," "Them's my sentiments," "Give 'em h il,w etc., etc This annoyance became unbearable. The Judge peering into tbe crowd where the noise came from, invited the enthusiastic youth to come upon the stand. The invitation was greedily accepted by the youth, who, when arriving upon the speakci 's stand, was confronted by tbe Jadge, who in that loud and commanding tone for which he was distinguished, demanded : "Young man do you read the Bible?" "Yes, Judge, I do." Judge 0o you believe what it t aches?" Y. M. Yes, of course I do." Judge "Did you ever read that passage where Christ told Nicbo-

deuius he must be born again."

Y. M. "Yes, oh yes, I have read that.' Judge "Do you believe that

doctrine ?"

Y. M. "Ob. yes, of course I do.

Judge "Well, young man, go home and into your closet aud on your bended knees, pray Almighty
