A Perilous Widow.

Democrats are the exception instead of the rule in Vermont, and it is unusual to see more thau two or three gathered together. Widow has buried three husbands, all prominent Democrats. At the funeral of the last, many of the" unterrified ” were in attendance, and as they were leaving the house a gentleman remarked, in an un-der-tone : “ This looks liko a Democratic State Convention.” The widow is soon to marry a fourth husband, who is also a noted Democrat, and, as the matter was being discussed recently, Jim , who is one of the “ true blues,” said: “ Boys, this thing is getting serious; at this rate the widow will in a few years ruin the Democratic party of Rutland county.” —Harper's Magazine.
