A Kentucky Drowning.

Neighbor—You have my deepest sympathies, madame, in the drowning of your dear husband and my best friend, Col. Bibber. It must have been a great blow to you, indeed. Mrs. Bibber—A tetrible blow to me it was, surely, but how infinitely greater to him, poor soul! Imagine, If you can, the ignominy that must have possessed his sensitive nature at the consciousness of the fact that he was being drowned in water.—Boston Courier.
