PAB3g UMWAJa SATUBDAY, JUIT 30, 1870. BITS OF fU3f. Ode to my washerwoman $2 50. No go Domingo. N. Y. Leader. Following the hounds Their tails. The Long Strike Twelve o'clock. Motto of the gardeners Lettuce plant. An object of interest A fire-twenty bond. Courtship ia bliss, but matrimony is blister. A Rome-antic animal The Pope's Ball. Fruit-less demonstrations Orange riots. Officers much needed on the police iorce uraeriy sergeants. The sham-rocks mostly worn in hats nowadays are bricks. A first-rate feller An American backwoodsman. An excellent car-toon The whistling of a locomotive. Why i? a mouse like a load of hay? Because cat'li eat it. ...... If you would look spruce in your old age, do not pine in your youth. Of all the dust thrown into men's eyes gold dust is the most blinding. The most peaceable way to have a knock-down is to get up an auction. A simple-ton. Twenty hundredweight, of course. Jail yards are called hanging- gardens. Shocking electric sparks and earthquakes. ; ,. - , The ' Grato" Tribulation A smoky chimney. Wrecks of Departed Joys A pile of old oyster-shells. Much of the hair now worn by 'ladies is cut from the heads of convicts. "Hurry, mammy," said a little innocent with his finger cut; "hurry, its leaking. "I have lost my watch overboard Is there any way to recover it?" "Oh, yes, divers ways." The shoe trade is said to be so brisk that goods are soled as fast as manufactured. A Kansas man ate three pounds of raisins, the other day, on a wager, which was paid to his widow. ' A wag recently appended to the market regulations, "No whistling near the sausage stalls." A man who has a scolding wife, being asked what he did for a living, replied that ha "kept a hot-house. An exchange wants the Government to issue stamps for kerosene inscribed " Prepare to meet thy God." An editor of a paper in Indiana wants to know if modern whisky was ever seen "comin' thro' the rye?" Over the door of a house in a village near London, is written Simon Babbles slaughters hogs like his father. The "first fiies of the season" have made their appearance. Not "shoo flies," but fiies that ought to be shoo'd. A London merchant advertised for a clerk who could bear confinement. He received an answer from one who had been Beven years in jail. 1 A little boy, on returning from Sunday school, said to his mother: ."This catechism is too hard; isn't there any kittyohisms for little boys?" A poor man being ill, on being asked by a gentleman whether he had taken any remedy, replied: "No, I ain't taken'.any remedy, but I've taken lots of ! puysio. Up and down. The almost universal cry, "Down with the taxes I" is inconsistent in one sense, because if taxes were down, they would be extreme- -ly light. Alfred Jingle's dog is surpassed in New Bedford, where they have a pointer that came-to a dead stand-still before a door plate bearing the name "A. Partridge." A negro parson, preaching against the love of money, concluded thus: "And. finally, bredren, you can judge what God thinks of money by the class of people he gibs it to. A man whose wife is a woman'srightser, has ordered a gravestone, on which is engraved, "Let us have psace." lie says he don't care whether it is erected over her or him. An Irish gentleman hearing of a friend having a stone coffin, made for himself exclaimed: "By my sowl, and that's a good idea! Sure an' a stone 'an 'ad last a man his lifetime!" An Irishman dropped a letter in the postofSce the other day, with the following memorandum on the corner, for the benefit of all indolent postmasters into whose hands it might fall: "Please hasten the delay of this." . . J. Esten Cooke's "Hammer and Rapier," just published, contains a characteristic dispatch, which has not yet been the rounds of the papers, from Lincoln to Hooker: "If the head of Lee's army is at Martinsburg and the tail of it on the Plank Road between Fredericksburg and Chancelorsville. the animal must be pretty slim somwhere. Couldn't you break him? A. Lincoln. A Convenient Loss of Memory. A gentleman who wa3 very zealous on the subject of horses, but not ao cording to knowledge, bought a mare at auction and rode her home. "Well, Caesar," said ha to his sable coachman, "what do you think of her? She cost me five hundred dollars." "Dunno, master." "les, but what do you think?" "Well, master, it makes me tink of what the preacher said yesterday something about hi9 money is soon parted. I disremember de fust part." DENTISTS. OH. I. HAAi? JHesldent H&tstiat, .

For Other JZiver Iiemi, See Fourth Page. We-Atlier and Water. The weather yesterday "morning was cloudy and murky, but warm and sultry; the mercury during the forenoon rangiDg from 74to Sl. The river continues to decline slowly but steadily, having fallen four inches during tho twenty four hours ending at 3 P.M. It will come to a stand and commence rising in a day or two by Monday at fartbest. The heavy rise at Pittsburg simultaneou3 in both rivers gives promise ot a material rise here. What effect it will have i . on ine cacai improvement remains to be seen. Arrivals ami Departures. Tbe arrivals and departures up to d p.m. yesterday, include the Mary Miller, Cairo to return ; Fayette, Hen derson and return; Pine Bluff, Grand view and return. Boats Due llere. Among the first boats due here are tho Morning Star, Tarascon and iiermuda, from Louisville; City of Evansville, from Cairo; Minneola. for Memphis; Kate Robinson, from St, Louis; Sam Orr, from Eastport. Boata Leaving To-Iy. Fob Cairo. The fleet and fascin aung i-aiewna, a penect ovoit or a passenger steamer, will leave at tbe usual hour, 4 p.m. to day, for Cairo and all way ports, in charge of Gus rowlcr, a popular commander, and with Billy Fowler, Duke Nichelson, Ed. Thomas and J. Nurre in the office. A more pleasant and accommodating quartette of attentive clerks can no where be found. Passengers will find the Idlewild one of the most pleasant boats in commission. In view of the hostile demonstrations on the continent, the battery will be supplied with choice ammunition. ready to be served, When a wessell In sight they see." For LouisviLLe. The favorite Morning Star will be the mail and express packet for Louisville at 9 p.m. to-day, and is admirably appointed. Capt. Frank O. Smith, an experienced and competent officer, commands, and W. II. Whiting and Billy Caye do the honors of the office, and are careful, aecurate and obliging. The Star is one of the most excellent boats that grace our wharf, and carries a picked crew. For Cannelton. The fleet and finely appointed steamer Pine Bluff is tbe regular coast packet at 3 P.M. today, for Cannelton and all way land ings, uaptain iiMayette Jiilder cas command, and John A. Adams and Robert Adams are her genial and obliging clerks. For Henderson. The fleet steamer Fayette leaves for Henderson at 3 p.m. to-day, in charge of that compe tent and attentive commander, Capt. A. O. Durland, with James II. Letcher and Jerry Boyle in her office. They are clever and courteous. Miscellaneous. Business still languishes on the levee, except in the packet trade, which is moderately active The Mary Miller came in about 9 a.m. with a nice packet trip. She lost some time going down, with the Diana at Walker's Bar. She was receiving fairly for her return trip, yesterday. Katy Did stopped off below to look up the Hacker The Fayette brought up a fair trip from Henderson The Pino Bluff arrived at 1 p.m. with a moderato trip Capt.Throop baa about completed the repairs and alterations on the Mallie Ilagorj, and she is about ready for business The Diana had got off Walker's Bar before the Mary Miller passed up The sage of the Courier, yesterday morning, tried the role of critic with his usual success. It selects a line of poetry quoted by Hiram E. Read, in his tobacco banquet speech attributes it to the Journal, and sneers at it with the air of a " British Bard or Scotch Reviewer." Was there ever anything bo extinguishing "Stolen from the Courier-Journal of Tuesday, and published with a slight alteration in Tuesday's Journal." There is scientific engineering for you. To show the accuracy of this self-constituted censor of the press, we quote a single editorial paragraph from the Caurier's river news of yesterday morning, on third page, under the head of miscellaneous, and which is manifestly "original," from the teeming brain of its author. "The City of Evansvllle came up Wednesday night, full of people and with an excellent freight. We publish her manifest elsewhere. Htae reports the Indtana aground at Walker's Bf.r. Bhe was there as tbe City of Evansville went down, and a she came back." It is well known that the Indiana has been on the ways at Paducah ever since before the 4th of July. The fact is the Courier's critic should quit all attempts to climb. He only exposes his lineage the class of animal from which he sprung. Next he selects a paragraph from the Nashville Union and American, which was quoted and credited by the Journal, attributes that to the Journal, and spreads himself on that. These two able and learned criticisms we turn over to their authors, Mr. niram and the editor of the respective E. Read Union and American. Last of all, this sapient critic takes a paragraph that appeared in the Journal of Thursday, which was prepared by a gentleman far superior in intelligence to any editor connected with the Courier who was "subbing" for the regular River Editor of the Journal. In clipping the list of boats lying at Portland when the canal was closed, he inadvertantly left attached three lines which Le had designed to cut off.
