Paoli News : The attendance at the Democratic Mass Meeting last Saturday was much larger than

has heretofore been common at

meetings of that character in this

county. Every township in tbe

county was represented by a large delegation. The only question up

on wbtcb there was a division, was

tbe instruction of delegates to tne

iudicial Convention. Judge Wil

son and Hon. John W. iSoskirk

were the only candidates for Judge

of iae Circuit (JourL iUcu bad active and1 eaergetra friends and tlw contest was spirited. A test vote showed a majority in Mr. Boskirk's favor. An effort was then made to divide the vote of tbe county between tbe candidates, but the majority favored casting the entire vote for Mr. Buskirk.

v-Colonel Dsst. of Georgia, who

was a gallant officer in the Con fed

erate Array during the warof the

rebellion, tells tbe following amus

mg story which has not heretofore

appeared in print. "I have always

bad," said he, "a great respect for

the valor of the Massachusetts troops, and there was one regiment

particularly, the Ninth, which

fought us like tigers. It so hap

pened that during several engage

ments we were pattee) against each other, and there was fouch desper

ate worn, i can assure you. Dur

mg one 01 our encounters we were

fortunate enough to surround one

of their companies, and as we were

shooting away, they, ageing that

uoless tbey surrendered they were

certain of annihilation, showed the

white flag. Unfortunately this was

not seen by my entire command.

aad several shots were fired after

had given the order to cease. Iu

the midst of this desultory firing

there came a strong Hibernian

voice from out of the bushes.

'Howld up, yez scoundrels. Ws have surrendered, and yer killiu'

Dimmocrats."

Ind. Journal : Sergeant Bates, the peripatetic flag-bearer, has returned from his Southern tour, which he entered a Democrat and concludes a Republican, fully persuaded that the time has not yet arrived for the control of the country to pasn out of the bands of the Republican party. At Griffin, 6a., an effort was made to mob him. While passing along tbe- road near Missionary Ridge he was fired at from ambush. He bad another narrow escape, but reached Savannah witb a whole skis. He says : "If I had told tbe people I was a Democrat1 I would have been all right. They took me for a Republican, and,, I did not take the trouble to correct the mistake. I I think Republican has as good a

right to travel through the Sooth

with a flag as a democrat." TavaV Warnt It Alt Indianapolis Journal: Mr. W. P. Gallon, who has returned from a trip along the Ohio river between Patriot and Madison, reports that the money required to make habitable the wrecked and damaged hooaea of people actually deserving aid, in the six towns that he visited, wU not exceed 9800. In tbe places where the water was blown against the houses by tbe gales during the flood, tbe damage is far greater than when it was blown from them. All along the river, however, an inordinate grstd' is manifested to get ail that can be obtained. One small village which asked the. relief committee for $6,000, after a dispute as to whether the amount should be 110,000, bad been, it was found, only slightly damaged. Seven small frame houses were carried from their foundations, and all, with tbe exception of two, were owned by men in affluent rircomstaneea. The two houses could be repaired and placed in a belter condition than they were before for $35. "The idea seems to be," Mr. Gallup remarks, "that the losses of everybody are to be reimbursed, not that the relief fund ia to make habitable tbst homes ol thorn who are without the memo to npeir the damages themselves."

Talks.

When he had called the meet

ing to order, Brother tiardner arose and said : "Osm'sn, if it wasn't for de wheels on a wagon de wseon wouldn't move.

Ventriloquism is declared by

an expert to be very largely hum

bug. I here is no such possibility as throwing the voice to a distance.

The old stories of Wyman the Wis-

ard, in which he exploited with ability in the midst of a crowd,

was uecssarily fiction. The performer must be some distance away from bis audience, or he is power

less. Whenever be wishes to make

them believe that bis voice sounds at a distance, he merely lowers it, and indicates the direction for their imagination to take. He can deceive them sideways, upward, downward or backward, but he never under

takes to produce tbe effect ot a speaker at their rear. To a listner

near by no ventriloquist can be in

tbe least deceptive. Nor is there

any truth in the theory that he

talks with tbe top of his gullet, or

with augbt else than the organs intended by nature to be vocal. By

holding his lips as fixed as possible,

and avoiding such words as cannot

ne pronounced wunoui moving

them, be assists the delusion. But no man is so skillful that he cannot

get on without a screening mous

tache.

"That's consoling tit customers,

"Yes, very," but I said to him

" 'Do you always cry at funer

A few drops of ammonia on a baudkerchief does tbe business, and you can cry like a street water cart. " "Bully, I said, that's a great soap, how is profits in this eternal wholesale grief and ice business ? 'Way up,' be said. 'Sometimes you can cover hemlock wfth black cloth, and run it in on the family for rosewood.' " " 'That's a great scheme,' I said, 'but ain't you afraid the mourners

Some remarkable ruins south

These chambers vary in size from

five to ten, sixteen, said even eight

is always from the top. The

height of tbe ceiling is usually eight feet. The walls are covered in places witb hieroglyphics and

That is to say, it goes on to specify, he is "the sort of individual who sleeps iu his shirt and drawers," and who isn't above "belching at his meals." The only trouble seems to be that the qualities which so endear him to the Democratic heart of Indiana make him distasteful in sections where simplicity of manners is so much prised, and the force of habit has ruled out tbe virtue of spontaniety, as it were.

Says the N. Y. Sun : In some of the stores in Mott street sugar cane is sold to the Chinese for fifteen cents a stalk. The stalks arc about four feet in length, are green in color, and are what would be called "sorry cane" in the South. The Chinese cut off sections of the cane witb their pocket knives, and eat it with an appearance of great enjoyment. It seems to occupy a place midway between a necessary article of food aad luxury. Though eaten between meals like candy, it ia prized because it is fattening, like mush and molasses. Sugar cane is eaten in this way by negroes throughout the South , where it is sold in all the general stores at 5 cents a stalk. Tbe Penobscot Indians, who

Tbe Archaeological Society at

Athens has decided to make re .V a M.I

searches at the bottom ot tne sea iu

the Bay of Salami, where the fatn

ous naval battle between the Greeks

and Persians was fought. The wa

ter is not very deep in the bay. As tbe present state of technical science enables the society to adopt efficient means of investigation, and as the association possesses the necessary financial strength, it is hoped that the enterprise will succeed. Since tbe Greeks lost about fifty and the Persians nearly two bundaed galleys, which have since been

lying undisturbed at the bottom of

tbe sea, it is thought 'that it may be possible to bring up some complete specimens, or at least portions of them, which may afford more accurate knowledge of the naval architecture ot tbe old Hellenes and the Persians than can be gathered from their writings. The attempt is looked forward to with great interest. Martinsville Republican : The ease of the State against Dr. Geo. Miller on the charge of producing an abortion, has at last reached a decision.

When a man gets on the down-hill side of forty-five, jr insurance premiums begin to seem pretty large. To be sun it takes a good many of them to make 11,000, but the people when they insare seldots consider how great the disparity between the annual premiaaa paid and the indemnity seen red thereby. If a man. want a policy that he can turn into money if he lire ten or fiftcn years, and looks oyer tk en

dowment tames, ot coarse be Qpde the premiums larger than for as Ordinary Life Policy.
